Three professors and a young wizard walked on the grass leading to Hogwarts Castle, and a huge black wolf was floating in the air to follow them.

Speaking of Peter who entered the Forbidden Forest with Professor Snape to track down Peter who had turned into a mouse, Professor McGonagall couldn't help showing a puzzled expression as he spoke.

"It's too dark in the Forbidden Forest. Not too far after we ran in, the dense woods almost completely covered the moonlight. Just when we were about to give up and return, we ran into Black, ah, by the way, the matter of Black hasn't settled with you yet." explain."

"When we rushed over, Black was still trying to suppress Lupine, so Severus and I stunned Lupine together. As for Black, he was worried about letting the fainted Lupine stay in the Forbidden Forest by himself. We were still thinking about chasing Peter at that time, and we didn't have time to take them with us, but luckily Severus thought of Zongsi's magic."

"Zongsi? Is it the kind of Zongsi that is solidified in our wand?" Sylvia raised her wand and turned it around. Uh, it seems that the Patronus Charm was a little too hard just now, and there is actually a little bit on the wand. crack.

McGonagall nodded and explained: "The general usage of Zongsi is to track the wizard holding such an item, but I really didn't expect Severus to directly download Zongsi for the wizard. Not only does it require mutual agreement, Some additional knowledge is required."

Snape smirked, "Defense Against the Dark Arts was originally my interest, and besides, before I poured Veritaserum on Black and Peter, I didn't believe a word he said."

"Ah, but it's a good thing that Black agrees with Zongsi's plan, and Peter is so eager to escape..." Mag didn't continue, but from the disappointed look in her eyes when she looked at the mouse in the small cage in her hand, it's not hard to guess After coming out, she had already believed most of what Black said.

"So how did you catch this...Peter in such pitch darkness?" Dumbledore asked gently.

Sylvia noticed that Principal Dumbledore rushed back to school immediately after receiving Professor McGonagall's letter saying 'Black broke into the school again', and his current attitude is too calm, as if. ..It seems that he already knew that Peter, who should have been dead for more than ten years, was still alive, and that Blake was wronged and imprisoned.What exactly is going on?Did Principal Dumbledore really know about this from more than ten years ago?Then why didn't someone of his stature say anything?Or did someone tell him ahead of time...?But is this possible?Except for Professor Lupine, the only person who knew about this in advance was Black himself. Could it be that one of the two of them talked about it with Principal Dumbledore?

Professor McGonagall didn't seem surprised by Headmaster Dumbledore's calmness, she continued: "After Severus put a trace on Black, we asked him to take Lupine to the Screaming Shack to wait. Both Lupine and Lupine were seriously injured. Although we said we wanted to continue chasing Peter, it was too dark in the Forbidden Forest, not to mention that Peter turned into a gray mouse. I think we couldn't see him even if he was a white mouse. he."

"Just when we were about to give up the pursuit and plan to go back to the castle and notify the Ministry of Magic..." Speaking of this, McGonagall once again showed a puzzled expression on his face, which is not often seen on the face of this strict old professor. , and then Sylvia heard Professor McGonagall say, "It's a little strange... because a Patronus suddenly appeared in the forest and guided us to Peter, which is a very beautiful caracal Patronus."

----------

Back at the castle, Snape separated from everyone in the hall.

"I'll get the Veritaserum first." Without waiting for anyone else to say anything, Snape swung his dark cloak and turned his head to leave.

Ascending the stairs, they saw Harry, Ron and Hermione walking anxiously around the gate of the hospital wing.

"Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasley, Miss Granger!" Professor McGonagall sternly raised the volume, frowned and stepped forward, "Didn't I tell you to go back to Gryffindor Tower quickly! Are you Already planning to ignore all the professors' words?!"

Ron shrank his neck and swallowed his saliva, his face was still not very good, and he seemed to have not recovered from the "adventure" of the previous hour or two. Harry and Hermione seemed to be in good condition, even though they were reprimanded by Professor McGonagall , and they did not retreat.

"Professor, we just want to know if Sister Camille is okay..." Before Hermione finished speaking, she gasped. Principal Dumbledore and Camille came over now, and they all I can clearly see the current situation of Camille who fainted in mid-air - the fur all over his body is dull, some parts of the hair are even torn off abruptly, and some are formed in strands due to blood, even if the scratches and wounds on his body The bleeding has stopped now, but the valgus flesh can still be clearly seen, but the most frightening thing is Camille's right front foot, which hangs powerlessly in mid-air, even though Principal Dumbledore's levitating spell has been very careful, But from the occasional shaking, it can still be seen that the foot has been completely disconnected from the shoulder blade--Senior Camille's condition is obviously very bad.

"I heard from Mr. Principal that you asked him to bring Madam Pomfrey to find us here?" Sylvia's soft voice came from behind Principal Dumbledore. Her face was pale and sick. Hermione hurriedly pulled Harry away to make way for the senior sister.

"Well, yes, we ran back to the castle, found Madam Pomfrey, and were about to run back with her again, but it would take some time to run that way, just in time, Principal Dumbledore appeared at the door of the medical wing, and I was in " Hogwarts, a piece of school history reads that the headmaster has the authority to apparate within Hogwarts. It will be much faster for Mr. Headmaster to take Mrs. Pomfrey there. After they leave, we want to say I want to wait here for you to come back." Hermione explained and asked with concern at the end, "Senior Camille...she...?"

"Cam is fine, thank you, Madam Pomfrey came just in time, if it was a little later..." Sylvia pursed her lips, looked away with watery eyes, and did not continue.

Headmaster Dumbledore, who was walking in front, pushed open the door of the medical wing, and the queen of the medical wing immediately came out from behind a bed surrounded by curtains, and waved to them, "Come here, here, I made a big one." The bed." Madam Pomfrey asked Dumbledore to place Camille, who was still in wolf form, across from the enclosed bed, and she joined the two beds together and used Transfiguration to widen the bed.

"Bobby, is this...?" Mag asked looking at the bed surrounded by curtains.

"Oh, it's all right," Madam Pomfrey returned to her office and came out with a small box of potions. When she passed the bed, she pulled back the curtain, and Sybill Trelawney, the professor of divination at Hogwarts, was lying on the bed. , "Sybil doesn't know why, oh, Merlin's crystal ball, maybe it's something like 'fate is calling me', anyway, she drank a lot of wine, and then fell drunk from her attic, Fortunately, it was discovered by a passing student. It’s nothing serious, my hand was a bit broken, and I healed it in two seconds, but I don’t want her to drink the hangover potion and go back now, some people just want to learn a lesson!” Madam Pomfrey said He stared fiercely at everyone present.

"Look at what you've all been doing!" Madam Pomfrey took out three bottles of blood tonic and mana recovery potion from the medicine box, obviously annoyed that everyone didn't know how to cherish themselves, and knocked the bottle on Camille On the small table next to the bed, "Drinking and falling, forget it, what did Miss Camille do?! Did you fight a dragon! Oh, Merlin's stinky sock! His right hand is broken!" said, Madam Pomfrey reached into the small box and fiddled for a long time, and took out two bottles of medicine. After fixing Camille's right hand with a wooden board, she directly poured the two bottles of potion, "Skeleton, blood Potion and magic power recovery potion, all need three times the amount of an adult wizard! When she was in wolf form, the wound healing spell can’t be helped at all, and the potion’s efficacy will be much reduced. I don’t have so many potions here. Going to Severus...what the hell are you..."

"Ah, speaking of which." Seeing that Madam Pomfrey's thoughts seemed to be unstoppable, Dumbledore quickly interrupted her, "Bobby, I might trouble you to come to my office with us tonight." One trip, both Peter and Blake were injured."

"Black?!" Madam Pomfrey screamed, her eyebrows raised angrily, "Don't tell me that Miss Camille's injury was caused by going to Black!! Albus! They still... .”

"Still a student, yes, I know," Dumbledore pressed his hand to signal Madam Pomfrey to calm down, "Originally Miss Camille was just helping to find Black, Minerva and Severus both went, but they didn't." Thinking that Lupine forgot to take his medicine..." Hearing this, Madam Pomfrey opened her mouth wide and couldn't even speak.

"Miss Camille saved someone very bravely. I think it's best to let her rest well now. We need your help with other things." Dumbledore nodded to Mag, who hurried forward to pull her Following Pomfrey, he walked outside the medical wing.

"Hurry up and go back to the lounge!" McGonagall glared at Harry and the others sternly, until they said goodbye to Mr. Principal and Sister Sylvia, and ran out of the medical wing. McGonagall explained while pulling Pomfrey. Followed to leave the medical wing, "This thing is really weird, let me tell you..."

Everyone had almost left, and the medical wing finally became quiet. Sylvia walked to Camille's hospital bed and sat down, watching her quietly.

"Miss Slytherin, don't you take a break?" Dumbledore asked gently.

Sylvia shook her head, "Thank you, but I'm not hurt." After a pause, Sylvia turned her head to look at Dumbledore with a serious face, "My patron saint is a caracal cat, just like Professor McGonagall said ... and Mr. Principal doesn't seem very surprised by the sudden appearance of Peter, who should have been dead for 12 years, and the incident with Blake, what does Mr. Principal think about these?"

Dumbledore stroked his white beard, seemed to think about it for a while, and then nodded as if he had suddenly realized, "Yes, it should be like this!" He took out a small golden miniature hourglass.

"Is this a time-turner?"

"Yes, Minerva gave this to me a few days ago. You probably know that Miss Granger took all the courses last semester?"

"I know, and I know she's using the Time-Turner, but this?"

"This is the time-turner we applied for Miss Granger. She seems to have made a good friend from Slytherin House. With her help, she decided to give up a few less important electives, so she decided to I returned this converter to Minerva. I originally planned to hand it back to the Ministry of Magic when I went to London this time for business, but, um, it was still in my hands when something happened. Now it seems that it is indeed just right.. . " Dumbledore gently placed the Time Converter on the small table next to Camille, "I think Miss Slytherin should know how to use it."

"Eh? But this is not a rule to be used in..."

"Study, that's right, but I have already handed in the stop-use application form for Miss Granger, and the time on it is written yesterday, as for forgetting to return it... Oh, the Ministry of Magic must always be considerate of the 100-year-old The old principal is occasionally confused, don't you think so?" Dumbledore winked playfully at Sylvia.

Seeing that Sylvia had accepted the Time-Turner, Dumbledore was content to go out, but at this moment a loud and hoarse voice spoke from the opposite side of Camille's bed, "Hurry up, soon!"

Dumbledore and Sylvia quickly turned around and looked at that. Professor Trelawney's closed eyes were now opened. Her eyes seemed to be wandering without looking exactly where she was, and her whole body was erratic and stiff.

"Professor Trelawney?" Sylvia tried to call her, but was quickly stopped by Dumbledore. Sylvia saw Dumbledore's face was extremely serious, and the blue eyes behind the half-moon lenses were cold Solemn.

Professor Trelawney's strange state was not disturbed by Sylvia's call. Her eyes suddenly rolled quickly, and she looked as if she had a seizure. A few seconds later, Professor Trelawney spoke again Now, it was still the hoarse voice, very different from the voice of Professor Trelawney that Sylvia had heard.

"The Dark Lord lay alone, friendless, abandoned by his fellows. For twelve years his servant had been chained. The day after tomorrow, before midnight, the servant would break free from his chains and set out in search of his master. The Dark Lord would Helped to rise again, stronger and more terrifying than ever. The day after tomorrow...before midnight...the servant...will begin...to find...his master again..." Professor Trelawney His voice became quieter, his head tilted to the side pillow, and within a few seconds, there was actually a slight snoring sound from a deep sleep.

"Professor Dumbledore... this...?!" Sylvia's eyes widened, and she looked at Dumbledore in disbelief, "Is this a prophecy?!"

"I'm afraid so, my child..." Dumbledore frowned, "Peter is in my office now, logically speaking, it shouldn't be..." He turned to look at Sylvia, his eyes no longer mischievous. There was a smile in his blue eyes, and a gentle sigh in his blue eyes, "Let's do our best, boy, just do our best." After Dumbledore finished speaking, he took a last look at the small timepiece on the table next to Camille. Converter, turned and strode out of the medical wing.
