Yan Bai of HP

Chapter 51

The palm of his hand unconsciously caressed the black cat in his arms. The thin and soft black hair made Harry's slender fingers even more crystal clear and white.

Hearing Sirius' voice full of hatred and anger questioning, Harry lowered his eyes faintly, and his slightly long bangs blocked those deep green eyes, making it difficult to see the waves in them clearly.

On the one hand, Wormtail's betrayal was because he was cowardly and afraid of death, unable to withstand the threat of Voldemort;James and the others were young and frivolous, and believed that everything would go as they wished with their enthusiasm. They were naive and ignorant, disgusting and enviable.That kind of unscrupulous, wild and indulgent, self-righteous, completely did not notice the jealousy and darkness of the friends around him under the cowardly appearance.

Harry looked up at Wormtail curled up on the ground. He knew what was going on in this man's mind. That ignorant boy in the orphanage used to hide in a corner, envious of his peers who were taken away by a gentle couple. But soon, he knew that he would not let the darkness swallow him up, and if he wanted to leave the orphanage, he had to rely on himself.It's not that he never hoped to have a pair of loving parents and lively brothers, he just knows what he wants most.I still remember that when he was young, he escaped from the small room in the evening and sat alone on the high wall of the orphanage, looking at the vast world in the distance against the boundless black sky.

From then on, he knew that he could have no family, no feelings, no money, no power, but he could not lose control of his body and mind. His life had to be decided by himself, and no one could interfere.Scratching the black cat's chin, Harry let go of the grass and raised his wand to point at Wormtail who was still pleading for mercy, "I admire your patience for being able to hide in the form of a mouse for so many years. power, but... whoever betrays my parents must die." Even if it was such a cowardly servant, he was unwilling to give it to Voldemort for nothing. A villain has the function of a villain, otherwise Harry's parents would not have given it to Voldemort because of Wormtail. The few words revealed cost lives.

Wormtail looked at Harry's wand in fear, sobbed, and begged for mercy on the ground, "No, Harry...James won't let you kill me, please, I'm your parents' friend... ..."

Sirius at the side looked at Harry's cold eyes full of murderous intent, and there was a flash of hesitation in his eyes.He turned into a big dog and hid in Hogwarts. In fact, he didn't find out much about his godson. After all, he couldn't appear in crowded places, and he tried to avoid crowds as much as possible when he was looking for Wormtail. However, Based on the bits and pieces of information he knew, he also analyzed that Harry was not easy.

It's impossible to say that he doesn't mind about Harry's college, but, for so many years in Azkaban, the only thing he relied on to get through those days was his memory, and the repeated memories were enough for him to understand How many wrong things did I do back then, although I still didn't agree with Slytherin, but I didn't have the disgust I had back then.

The only thing that worries him is whether Harry will go astray because of hatred. After all, in his opinion, there are many hypocritical and sinister noble children in Slytherin House. Leigh's calmness about the killing made him feel a little uneasy.

Harry ignored the complicated thoughts of the man beside him. He moved his hand holding the wand, and Wormtail on the ground suddenly screamed, "You can't kill me, I...I know the real murderer!!"

Sirius sneered disdainfully, "The murderer? Apart from the mysterious man, the only murderer is you, a traitor, what else do you want to say?" The man raised his hand to press Harry's arm down, but he himself raised his wand. If possible, he didn't want his godson to be stained with blood at such a young age, such a bright color that couldn't be washed off in a lifetime.

"No, no," Wormtail said tearfully, with a flustered face, and his tone was fast and trembling, "Snape, it was Snape who told Voldemort the content of the prophecy."

Sirius gritted his teeth loudly,

"That snot... I said earlier that he can't be trusted."

"Professor Sif didn't know that the child in the prophecy would be me at that time, so it wasn't considered a betrayal." Harry was inexplicably displeased when he heard Sirius' words, and explained lightly, looking at Sirius' disapproving eyes, He calmly looked at Wormtail on the ground, "What else do you know?"

Wormtail saw that the name he said had no effect, and his body began to wobble because of fear, "I... I know Dumbledore!!" The wretched man gritted his teeth and called out the name sharply, "I heard Dumbledore and that Witch's dialogue!!"

"You're lying!!" Sirius roared immediately, "I knew you, a filthy, cowardly piece of trash, wouldn't tell the truth at all, you're just afraid of death and want to delay time!!" The man kicked over, excitedly Pressing his wand against Wormtail's chest, the man on the ground seemed to be about to faint.

Harry pulled the excited Sirius back with one hand, and finally there was a wave of fluctuation in his deep green eyes, "Who was the witch talking to Dumbledore? What did you hear?"

"No, Harry, he is lying to you, how could Dumbledore harm James and Lily." Sirius said anxiously.

Harry slightly raised his hand, stopping the man's words, "Wait, listen to what he said first?"

Seeing that there was a glimmer of life, Wormtail hurriedly said tremblingly, "That witch brewed a potion for Dumbledore, saying that it can bounce back the curse cast on him as much as possible."

"Then Dumbledore gave the potion to my mother, didn't he?" Harry said calmly, his green eyes became emotionless in an instant, but people could feel the sudden anger rising all over him.

Wormtail swallowed, and nodded indiscriminately, "Yes, I heard that witch said that this potion would weaken the effect of the guardian spell on Lily..." Sirius trembled, and the hand holding the wand was tightened and tightened.

"...Then, I heard Dumbledore say that there must be sacrifices in war, and that the boy in the prophecy must survive."

"You're lying!!" Sirius was furious, his eyes were cracked, his chest heaved greatly, and the magic power of the riot made the robe on him automatic without wind.

Harry turned his head and stared at the man beside him, and suddenly asked, "Sirius, did you propose to change the secret keeper?"

The man's eyes were full of remorse. "That's right. When I discussed with Dumbledore, I agreed that this would better protect Lily. I didn't expect this weak and stupid thing to become the lackey of the mysterious man."

Talk to Dumbledore?A stern light flashed in Harry's eyes, and he threaded all the clues. From the moment Dumbledore got the prophecy, he started a plan to let Voldemort know the content of the prophecy, teach Lily the ancient guardian spell, Let her drink the potion that can enhance the rebounding power of the Guardian Curse, so as to ensure that Voldemort will be backlashed to the maximum extent. After learning that Wormtail has been providing information to Voldemort, guide Sirius to replace the secret keeper, one by one, Harry felt a sudden chill in his heart, Dumbledore's grasp of human nature was creepy.

Snape, who is eager to be recognized, Lily and his wife who hope to eliminate the mysterious man to protect their children, the cowardly Wormtail, the loyal Sirius, and the arrogant and fierce Voldemort, all the characters and thoughts of the old man are designed by that old man, Harry Suddenly, he felt that he had always underestimated the leader of the Order of the Phoenix. Did Dumbledore really know nothing about his actions over the past year, or was he designing a plan that would bring everything together? Everyone is included in the trap.

"Harry...Harry, I told it!" Wormtail shrieked, trembling. "I told all I know. Don't kill me, please, don't kill me."

"Those words are all lies!" Sirius said angrily, "These are all your plots!"

"You don't have to die." Harry said lightly under Sirius' disbelieving gaze, "At least for now, I still need you to prove Sirius' innocence."

Wormtail lost all his strength and collapsed on the ground, knowing that he could not die now.

"Harry, I'd rather be accused of being a traitor forever than let you let him go." Sirius pressed Harry's shoulder and said seriously.

"I didn't say to let him go, Azkaban would be a better home." Harry said lightly, besides, he hadn't asked clearly about some things, how could he let Wormtail go.

"You, change back." Harry ordered, and Wormtail gave Harry a wincing look, knowing that he could no longer run away, and turned back into a mouse.

Harry directly cast a petrification spell, held his tail, wrapped the bag with a piece of parchment paper, put it in his pocket, turned his head and said seriously to Sirius, "Hide here first, wait until I convince the principal and Fudge from the Ministry of Magic will let you come out again, otherwise, if the Ministry of Magic denies Wormtail's testimony and insists on taking you back, you may not be able to escape again."

Sirius's angry eyes softened a lot, and he nodded.A trace of complexity flashed in his brown eyes. He is not an idiot, and what Wormtail said just now had no effect on him, but he still couldn't believe that the kind old man would do such a cold-blooded thing. Well, it was the somewhat crazy smiling Dumbledore who gave him elder-like affection, so all of this must be just a lie made up by Wormtail. Thinking of this, a seed of doubt was planted in the man's heart.

Harry saw the man's ambivalence, his emerald green eyes flashed slightly, and he said, "Don't tell others what Wormtail said, you don't want others to doubt Dumbledore, do you?"

The man nodded in agreement, "I won't tell others about those slanderous words."

Harry smiled slightly, and walked into the tunnel with a low body. Sirius in the room stood still for a while, took a step back and sat on the bed, took a deep breath, looked back at the ceiling in a daze, and stopped talking.

As dusk approached, the sky turned dark blue, and a flock of homing birds made a lonely call from the tower on the top of the castle.With Wormtail in his arms, Harry walked quickly across the grass and into the Forbidden Forest.

Arriving at a clearing, Harry turned Wormtail back into a human form, and several vines tied the man tightly to the tree, unable to move.

"Harry?"

The boy stood quietly in front of him, "I still have a few words to ask you."

"Yes... yes, I must tell the truth." Wormtail felt a heartfelt fear of Harry in front of him. He was obviously just a boy, but his aura reminded Wormtail of the man with bloody eyes.

"How could Dumbledore not have noticed that you were following him? Your strengths are too different."

"The mysterious man gave me a ring, and he can use three advanced invisibility spells, even Dumbledore can't find it."

"That means Dumbledore doesn't know what you know." Harry narrowed his eyes slightly, and raised his wand under Wormtail's horrified gaze, 'memory extraction'

Putting down his wand, a thin leaf fell on his shoulder, and Harry calmly brushed it away.The old man missed a link after all his calculations. He didn't expect Wormtail to know part of his plan. Although it was not much, the content was enough to make him lose the trust of most people. He would not let such important information Dumbledore knew that at a critical moment, this would be the old man's fatal blow.

Sighing softly, he didn't expect Dumbledore to be able to calculate to such an extent, and he couldn't help feeling a sense of compassion for those who died.A thought suddenly came to Harry's mind, if even the prophecy back then was designed by Dumbledore...then, the appearance of the savior was a farce, and the old man really played with the entire wizarding world.

With a chill in his heart, Harry took a deep breath, turned Wormtail back into a mouse and put it back in his pocket. No matter what, he would never submit to anyone, and it was absolutely impossible for him to be willing to become Dumbledore's pawn.Let him see, in the end, is it he who guards the people around him and grasps his destiny, or becomes Dumbledore's victim and achieves the ridiculous name of the so-called savior.
