Ravenclaw's Sapphire

Chapter 67 Night of Truth

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Zooey learned how to be good. This time, when she arrived in front of Professor Lupin's office, although she realized that the other party had not locked the door, she still knocked on the door vigorously, regardless of whether the other party was inside or not. Doing something of a personal nature can at least give both parties a buffer time.

"Professor Lupine?" Seeing that there was no movement inside, she knocked on the door again and waited for several minutes before pushing it open.

Professor Lupine's office is very stylish, because its layout is the most like what a real professor should have among the offices of previous Defense Against the Dark Arts professors. The first-year Professor Quirrell's office is nothing special, and the second-year Lockhart is too self-styled, the walls are full of his own self-portraits, until the third grade, there is finally a professor who can put classroom materials in the office.

Zoe and Grindylow in the water tank looked at each other for a while, and only after Grindylow hid himself in the water plants did he look around again.Professor Lupine's office is very cramped, which is also because he piled things everywhere, and Professor Lupine is not in the office.Is it better to put the potion on the table and leave now, or go to him directly?It's no fun to know that Professor Lupine forgot to take his medicine today.

She dawdled (mainly to avoid some obstacles on the way forward) and walked to Professor Lupine's desk, glanced casually, only to find a piece of parchment spread out on his desk, and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a map.

She saw that there were many small dots on it, some were moving, some were still, but without exception, there was a name on the dots.Zoe looked at Snape's office in the basement, and found a small dot with Snape's name on it moving in a small range, and looked at the lounges of Slytherin and Ravenclaw, and found Draco And Luna were there too, not to mention Dumbledore in the headmaster's office.

She thought for a while, curiosity and apprehension collided in her heart, and her eyes drifted to the Gryffindor lounge, thinking that even if she would see three dots together, it wouldn't matter.But she was surprised to find that Hermione was not in the lounge. You must know that it was almost the curfew time, and because of the dementors around, Dumbledore even brought forward the time that students were not allowed to hang out outside the castle.

She didn't have time to think about why there was a magic map on Professor Lupine's desk, and hurried to find Hermione's location.She browsed all over the castle first, then suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, and focused on places outside the castle.She understood that Hermione was very disciplined, but that didn't mean she wasn't afraid to make out-of-the-ordinary choices, as long as she felt it was necessary.

She kept looking along the large open space outside the castle, but fortunately there was no one there, so she didn't have to spend time looking up their names on the dots.But the consequence of this is that the small dots that appear will be very abrupt. When she saw a full six small dots in a place where there should never be small dots, it is not surprising that she was taken aback.

"Hit, Whomping Willow?! Why..." Not to mention that she even found more than Hermione's name in the six dots (as for Harry and Ron, they were just skipped at a glance), and when she saw When Professor Lupine and the remaining two names were left, the fear in her heart exploded like a punctured balloon with a "bang!".

That's Sirius Black.

Also, Peter Pettigrew.

Just go find Hermione right away.Zooey panicked because of this unusual situation, regardless of whether she knocked off Professor Lupin's things, she just wanted to hurry to where Hermione was, and then she slipped and stepped on something, screaming With the body suddenly fell backwards.

As for Harry, the grievance and hatred that had been entangled for more than ten years finally came to an end briefly.They tracked Scabbers and Crookshanks to the Whomping Willow, then met Black and Lupine, and heard them tell old stories about werewolves, the Mischievous Four and Animagus, and Scabbers real identity.Harry stopped Black's revenge, even though he hated Peter not much less than Black, let alone the hatred he felt when he thought Black was the one who broke the contract.But when he watched his father's three old friends gather together, he felt that Black should not do it.

He is already very tired, don't let this person who is almost full of guilt and hatred bear any more burden. "Give him to Azkaban, to the dementors, don't kill him, don't use your hands." He said wearily, as if everything was an absurd drama that made people laugh, but It's stuck in my throat, I can't laugh at anything.

What can he say?His parents and his best friend put their trust in the wrong people and put the secret-keeper duties on a bastard who had secretly betrayed them long ago and gone to Voldemort's camp, a man who had been their good friend before... so to speak Come to blame for the death of parents only themselves?Could it be that they died miserably at Voldemort's hands because they didn't know who they were?

"What?! This scumbag killed your whole family, Harry! Let me kill him, he killed James and Lily!" Black and Peter's reactions were diametrically opposed, but their eyes widened in disbelief, "Thank you, thank you for being kind to me, good boy... I am willing to go to Azkaban, as long as you don't let them kill me here..."

The little ugly wizard crawled and crawled under the hem of Harry's robe, pulling his robe, his small eyes were teary, but Harry only felt disgusted, he pulled the robe out of Peter's hand, "I In fact, I really want to kill you too..." His voice was trembling, and Peter trembled, "But this matter shouldn't get Blake's hands dirty, people like you, guys like you... just spend your whole life Let Azkaban rot, even my father wouldn't want his best friend to kill someone..." He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

"Peter, if you dare to get close to Harry again, I will kill you. I will do what I say!" Black kicked Peter in the stomach, watching him curl up in a circle with satisfaction, but he was already very weak , unable to give a severe beating to this enemy he had been chasing down.The long-term imprisonment in Azkaban has already destroyed his health, not to mention that he has to keep hiding during this period, "You dirty rat in the sewer, you can't wait to trade the Potter family for your glory Wealthy, smelly traitor..."

Lupine held Black and stopped the panting Black from beating Peter: "Okay, Sirius, Harry is the only one who has the right to decide on Pettigrew's punishment, not us, old friend." He was angry, but at least he was able to speak rationally, "Let's just do what Harry said and send him to Azkaban. This is not salvation for him, is Pettigrew?" His gentle tone As if they were still friends.

Black smiled too, showing yellow teeth, and his thin cheeks made this smile particularly sinister: "Yeah, I heard those Death Eaters who were imprisoned in Azkaban curse you a lot, Peter. Because Your information, the Dark Lord will go to catch the Potters, because his future enemy comes from that family... But he has lost power, I bet if you go in, you won't survive even a day, you will be passed by Rip your colleagues to pieces!" He laughed so horribly that Peter flinched even more.

"Let's not delay here, gentlemen. I propose that we should hurry back to the castle, go to Professor Dumbledore first, and then the Minister of Magic. We must let Pettigrew tell all the truth about these years." Spit it out and rehabilitate Black, what do you think, Harry?" he asked softly, and Harry nodded silently.

They first tied up Peter Pettigrew, and Black threatened him once again that if he dared to change shape, he must kill him on the spot.Harry and Hermione helped Ron up. His leg had been broken before, and none of the wizards present was proficient in bone setting, but Professor Lupine did emergency treatment with two splints and ropes, and he was going to let Pon go back to the castle. Mrs. Frey handles it.

As they emerged from the Shrieking Shack and down the inside of the Whomping Willow, Harry found himself walking side by side with Sirius, knowingly or not.He felt that the atmosphere was a little strangely silent, so he wanted to find something to say.

"My parents, should I think they're stupid?" he said quickly. "They put themselves in danger by putting their trust in the wrong people. Is this all they have to suffer?"

"It's not like this, Harry." Black said hastily, "I have never seen anyone as brave and kind as your parents. They have always been the pride of everyone. This ending is all because of my mistake It was because of trusting Peter that they had an accident, and I still can’t forget that when I rushed to your house, I saw the dead bodies of James and Lily..." He let out a terrible sob from his throat, "This is all mine by mistake."

"But you are also forced to bear charges that don't belong to you." Harry comforted him, "When the Ministry of Magic takes Pettigrew away, you can restore your reputation."

Hearing this sentence, Blake seemed to be immersed in his own thoughts, and finally he spoke: "Harry," his voice was hoarse, "I don't know if you know that your parents asked me to be your godfather ?” He scowled, trying to look forward instead of looking in Harry’s direction, but continued, “If I get my honor back, I might be able to become your guardian, I mean… you Are you willing to go to a new environment? For example, live with me... Of course! If you don't want to live with a former murderer, I completely understand..."

Harry interrupted him. After hearing the news, the haze on his face suddenly dissipated completely. Harry smiled exaggeratedly and pleasantly: "You are joking, of course I would! When do you think I should start from Desi?" The Li family moved out?"
