James sprinted toward the Whomping Willow.When the Whomping Willow came into his line of sight, he was horrified to find that there was a figure standing there, using a magic wand to the Whomping Willow and shouting three times "Fuchsia", and the branches of the Whomping Willow were all lifted from the ground and turned upside down. Stretching out, the figure stepped into the shadow of the Whomping Willow and pressed the knot.

Judging by the figure and the sound of chanting, it was definitely Snape.

James yelled "No!" and ran towards him, but it was too late.Just at this moment, the moon rose, and a terrified scream came from the Shrieking Shack, which made him and Sirius and Peter who were not far behind him tremble in fright.

Not caring much, James rushed in immediately, not even Animagus had time to change.

If the fear had any substance, Sirius felt his whole body was icy cold, his mind went blank, and his feet seemed to be rooted, unable to move.

Half a minute later, James dragged Snape out. Snape was pale with fright, but fortunately, there seemed to be no injuries on his body.James stared at Sirius with a frosty face and said, "If anything happens to Remus, who was killed because of you, I will never forgive you for the rest of my life!"

Sirius had never seen James like this before, and another fear rose from the bottom of his heart.He knew that James wasn't talking angry with him, if Remus really... no, don't think so, Remus will be fine...he comforted himself.

Snape brought the matter up to the Headmaster.

James, Peter, and Sirius sat primly on the chairs in the principal's office, silent.Snape, who had regained his strength, spit and accused Sirius of disregarding human life, but Sirius didn't refute a word.

Anger overshadowed Snape's awe of the Headmaster. "Principal Dumbledore, may I ask how you plan to deal with this matter?" he said angrily.

"Mr. Potter, Mr. Black, and Mr. Pediru, because of your night tour, everyone will deduct [-] points from Gryffindor." Principal Dumbledore sat on his chair with a serious expression like a formidable enemy: "Mr. Black, because of your pranks and reckless behavior that disregarded other people's lives, you have to deduct another [-] points from your own college. In addition, starting tomorrow, you will be locked up every night until the end of the fifth grade."

"That's it? That's the end of my injury from being almost killed by that werewolf Lupine?!" Snape couldn't believe that Dumbledore didn't fire all four of them.

The old headmaster frowned and said, "Student Snape, I understand the fright you were caused by this incident, but you were saved by Mr. Potter after all, and you were not really injured. Why don't we make this major incident smaller? I hope you can keep this matter a secret, and if you have any requests, feel free to ask."

"A werewolf and a murderer, what qualifications do they have to study at Hogwarts? At least Lupine and Black should be expelled!"

"Student Snape, I hope you can calm down. Do you really want your classmate to be expelled? Do you know what kind of life a student will face after being expelled?" the headmaster said seriously.

"I don't know, I just know that such a person doesn't deserve to stay in school."

"Enough!" Sirius stood up abruptly, "Snape, I know how much you hate me, as long as you let Remus go, I am willing to drop out of school. I was the one who led you here, Remus is innocent Yes. As long as you promise to let Remus go, I can do whatever you want."

"What do you have that I want you to do for me? I don't want anything, I just want you two to be fired!"

"You!" Sirius clenched his fists tightly, he took a deep breath, looked at Snape, and said word by word: "Snape, don't forget what you did in the second grade, What do you think Lucius Malfoy would do if I showed that evidence?"

Snape's eyes widened, it's been too long, he has almost forgotten what happened at that time, no, Lucius Malfoy can't know, it's worse than letting the professor know.With Malfoy's means and his status with the Dark Lord, if he found out about this, he would definitely die!

He took a few deep breaths, finally calmed down, turned to the principal unwillingly and said, "Okay, I don't need them to be expelled, and I don't need to tell about Lupine, but I have conditions, and I'm afraid it's not enough. In order for Black to have a long memory, at least [-] points are required. Also, Black’s confinement cannot end this semester, it will not be until he graduates. I think my request is not too much for a murderer.”

Sirius' chest heaved violently, he really wanted to step forward and punch Snape, but he couldn't, it was his own fault, for Remus' sake, he couldn't.

"Okay, as long as you keep your mouth shut, I accept this punishment."

"Well, Mr. Snape, as you wish," the headmaster said with a sigh.

Coming out of the principal's office, James immediately ran to the school hospital, followed by Peter and Sirius.Next to the hospital bed, James told Remus who had transformed from a werewolf to Remus, who had turned back from a werewolf, about the final punishment. Remus was ashen-faced and refused to look at Sirius.

Sirius lowered his head sadly, his pleading voice trembling slightly: "Remus, I know it's my fault, but I really didn't mean it. Fortunately, James saved Snape in time. I, I'm also very scared, I'll never do that again, really, you believe me, give me a chance, okay?" He had already lost Lynn, and he couldn't lose these three friends, and he knew that if Remus wouldn't forgive himself , I'm afraid James and the others won't...

Remus was silent.Sirius looked at James and Peter helplessly, only to see that James' face was still dark, and Peter lowered his head and said nothing.

Merlin, what can one of you say? !Beat me and scold me, don't keep talking, I beg you, don't keep talking!Sirius screamed in his heart.

"Remus," James finally said, "Sirius really didn't mean it, and he didn't expect Snape to go there knowing that there might be a trap. Besides, in the principal's office just now, he would rather be caught by you in order to save you." Expulsion. He... He really didn't mean it, forgive him once. I promise you, if he dares to do such a mindless thing again, even if you let him go, I won't let him go. "

Sirius looked at James gratefully, and at Remus uneasily.

After a long time, he heard Remus say: "Well, for James' sake, I forgive you this time, but only this time."

Sirius was relieved.

******************

Gryffindor was deducted more than 300 points overnight, which naturally caused an uproar.As the prefect of Gryffindor, Lily was sent as a representative to ask Professor McGonagall what happened.

"Mr. Black did a stupid thing that couldn't be more stupid." Professor McGonagall was obviously in a bad mood, and there was almost no spark in his nose when he spoke.

"Black and Potter again!" Lily shouted angrily, "When will they learn to restrain themselves!"

"This matter has nothing to do with Mr. Potter," Professor McGonagall explained. "In fact, it was Mr. Potter who prevented this matter, so that Black would not cause a catastrophe."

Lily raised her eyebrows when she heard this.Potter stopped Black?This is really the sun rising in the west. "What the hell did Blake do?" she asked.

Professor McGonagall looked at Lily, frowning tightly: "He led Snape to meet the werewolf on the night of the full moon."

"Werewolf?! Xi..." Lily felt as if she had been hit hard.

"Mr. Snape is fine. Mr. Potter arrived in time and pulled him out of danger." Professor McGonagall reassured.

"Then... what about Remus? Remus is alright?" Lily continued to ask calmly.

"What did you say? What... what does this matter to Mr. Lupine?" Professor McGonagall asked back in shock.

"Professor, I know that Remus is a werewolf." Lily said in a low voice, "I also know that Potter and Snape have always been at odds, and they both want to catch each other. Porter is going to save Snape , I'm afraid that werewolf is Remus, right?"

"Evans, you really surprised me." Professor McGonagall sighed. "Mr. Lupine told you?"

"No, I guessed it myself. I actually had doubts before, and I was not sure until we became prefects together and got in touch with him more. He would disappear for two or three times every month around the night of the full moon. Three days, it’s actually quite easy to guess. But don’t worry, I haven’t told anyone about my guess.”

Professor McGonagall opened his mouth, and then sighed again: "Thank you for your prudence, I hope you can continue to keep it secret. You and Remus are both prefects, so if you can cover it up, try to help cover it up. Mr. Lupine is also a hard-working man. .”

"I will," said Lily, sighing against Professor McGonagall.

Back in the Gryffindor tower, she went to James's dormitory immediately.James looked at her flattered, but just as he was about to speak, he broke into a cold sweat when Lily said it before him.

Lily said, "I'm not here for you, I'm here for Remus and that bastard Black. Professor McGonagall told me all about the Screaming Shack."

Remus and Sirius, who were still sitting on the bed, looked pale.Lily stepped forward and punched Sirius hard.Sirius' nose was bleeding.

"Not only are you sorry for Severus, but you are also sorry for Remus, who gave you his wholehearted trust. You are an asshole! Fortunately, Lynn is ignoring you now. I'm so glad." She said with fire in her eyes.

Originally, Sirius didn't think Lily's accusation was too much, he knew he deserved it, but when Lily mentioned Lynn, he felt the blood welling up in his head.

"Yes, I'm sorry to Remus, but I don't owe Snape anything! I don't want to explain the details to you, but please don't bring Lynn into it."

"You almost killed Severus, and you still don't think you owe him anything?! You are hopeless! Did I bring Lynn into this? I would rather Lynn stay away from people like you for the rest of his life .I'm going to tell her what you've done right now!"

"How dare you!" Sirius yelled.

"Okay, okay, stop arguing," James immediately stepped forward to persuade the fight.The scene where the beloved girl quarrels with her good brother is really heart-stopping. "Evans, can you come with me? I have something to tell you." James said, looking at Lily very seriously.

Lily was used to seeing James usually out of shape, and suddenly seeing him so serious made her a little uncomfortable.By coincidence, she actually said "yes".But before following James out, she gave Sirius a hard look.

James takes Lily to the Room of Requirement.Lily's head was full of question marks of "Fuck, why did I agree to come out with Potter just now", she didn't notice anything special about this room at all.

Then, she heard James tell the details of what happened.

"...I know you may think I'm trying to excuse Sirius, but even if you don't trust me at all, I think I should tell you what I think. Yes, both Sirius and I dislike Snape , but we never wanted Snape to die. Sirius didn't think Snape would actually go."

"You sound good. Then let me ask you, if it didn't involve your two good buddies this time, if Severus was lured to meet the werewolf by others, and the werewolf is not Remus, you would still go save him?"

"Of course," James shouted without hesitation, "Snape is annoying, but after all, he didn't do anything to kill or set fire. How could I not save him? Who do you think I am?!"

Lily didn't expect James to answer her so bluntly, and his face suddenly turned red.She hurriedly said under cover: "Well, even if Blake didn't do it on purpose, what do you want me to do? Did he do it on purpose? Everything happened."

"It's not irreparable." James said immediately, "I just ask you not to tell about Remus. He is the most innocent person in this matter from beginning to end. Also, don't tell Lynn about it. , Sirius, he has..."

Before James finished speaking, Lily interrupted him: "Of course I won't spread the word about Remus. The punch I punched Black was not only for Severus, but also for Remus. As for Lin Well, I will definitely tell her."

"Come on, Lily, you..."

"We don't know each other that well. Call me Evans."

"Oh, I'm not too anxious. Sirius and Lynn are already at odds, and you get into it again..."

"So what? Blake can do it, so don't be afraid of others knowing! Look at his attitude just now! If you stop me here when you have time, why don't you educate him!" Lily didn't listen to James at all. said, with a toss of red hair, and turned away from the Room of Requirement.

James was depressed.I think back when Lily and Snape were in a cold war, he and Sirius watched Lynn dismantle Lily and Snape's CP, how happy they were. This time it's really a turn of events, it's Lily's turn to dismantle Lynn and Sirius' CP up.
