When the funeral ended, it was 10:30 am.Sirius sent Lynn back to the apartment, and then went to the Potter House.

"Change the Secret Keeper to Peter? Why?" James asked puzzled.

"You should know that before they caught Lynn, they wanted to force me to tell Harry's hiding place. I can't let this happen again. If it's just me, even if I die, I won't betray you. But I'm worried, if Lynn is caught by them again... I... I can't bear that dilemma again, I'm afraid I won't be able to choose between you and Lynn... Therefore, it is the best way to secretly replace the secret agent." Sirius said wearily.

"But why Peter? Sirius was what you said before. Peter was scared out of his wits by this incident. After he was discharged from the hospital, he didn't even dare to go to the Order of the Phoenix and hid in his house every day. How dare he Will you be our secret keeper?" Lily asked hesitantly while hugging little Harry.

"That's why I want Peter to be the secret keeper." Sirius murmured, "Croy returned to China two days ago, and I asked her for some advice. She told me that although so far However, the way for the house owner to be the secret keeper is still under study, but she has already confirmed that as long as the secret keeper is not the home owner himself and has the consent of the home owner, he can temporarily live in the house that is kept secret. Think about it, let Peter be the guardian, and then live in his own secret room, so that no one can find you again. This will not only protect you, but Peter himself! You know, Peter is also us Weaknesses, but this way, Voldemort will never have the opportunity to threaten you and me with Peter, so why should we not do it?"

"That's what you said." James nodded. "This way Peter is safe, and you and Lynn are not so dangerous. As long as you are not a secret keeper, Voldemort should not want to catch you so much."

Sirius said, "On the contrary. Let's not say anything about changing Peter to the secret keeper. On the surface, the secret keeper is still me."

"Why?" James exclaimed.

"I want Voldemort and the Death Eaters to come after me." Sirius said calmly. "This time, although many Death Eaters were captured, a lot of them escaped. I want to use me as an introduction to lure them out. "

"What about Lynn?" Lily asked.

"I'll send her to Hogwarts and let Madam Pomfrey take care of her when Peter settles into your house. With Dumbledore in Hogwarts, she will be safer than anyone else."

For a while, the room fell silent.I don't know how long it took, James asked with red eyes: "You have considered everyone's safety, what about you, your own safety?!" At the end, his voice turned into a roar, terrified Harry's mouth shrunk, as if he was about to cry.Normally, James' behavior like this would definitely cause Lily to complain, but now, Lily didn't care about complaining, and she was also frightened by Sirius' decision.

Sirius closed his eyes and smiled wryly, but he didn't answer James' question, but just said to Lily, "Let me give Harry a hug."

Lily glanced at her husband who was still staring at Sirius, sighed slightly, and handed little Harry into Sirius' hands.

Sirius looked at Harry who was soft in his arms, watched him give him a child's innocent smile, and vaguely called "Pad, Pad...", and felt his eyes were a little moist.He remembered what the therapist Mr. Smethyke said to Lynn when he woke up that day: "... There is one more thing you have to be mentally prepared for. According to my diagnosis, Miss Bruce has suffered more than just It's the Cruciatus Curse. They...should have used the method that men do to women, and they have used some kind of potion...From now on, the chance of her conceiving a child...is very small."

Sirius still doesn't want to recall it, but when he heard the news, he was terrified.In fact, he had always longed that after the war, he and Lynn would have a child of their own.He had already figured it out, if it was a boy, he would call him Freeman, and if it was a girl, Lynn would choose his name.He will not let his children grow up in the gloomy place of 12 Grimmauld Place, he will give him/them the greatest freedom, and he wants to make a new Blake home tapestry, titled "Forever Free" The Black family", he wants to make a family rule, no one is allowed to remove a child because he has no magic or married a Muggle...

But at that moment, all the dreams about the child were shattered.

Fortunately, he still has a godson.Harry, he wasn't just Prong and Lily's baby, he was their hope.Maybe when Prongs and Lily had a second child, he and Lynn could snatch Harry for him?He thought so, with warmth on his face, but...

"Don't try to use Harry as a shield this time. Answer my question!" James interrupted the warmth rudely.

Sirius didn't look up, but still stared at Harry intently. He smiled, but said depressing words: "James, too many people have died. The war should not be dragged on any longer. This Death Eater The gangsters have been hurt by us, we should work harder. Harry, it’s time to see the outside world. For Harry, and for many children like Harry, I want to fight. But I am If I want to have a baby, I still want to give Lynn a grand wedding. But...in case...if...if I die, help me take care of Lynn."

James looked at Sirius, as if he wanted to engrave this buddy who had always lived and died with him in his mind.

He didn't try to persuade Sirius anymore, years of tacit understanding let him know that it's useless for him to persuade him any more.

They are Aurors, fighters of the Order of the Phoenix.From the day they entered the Auror Department and the Order of the Phoenix, they risked their lives. They wanted to save more lives, and wanted to end the war as soon as possible.

Although Sirius' idea was crazy, it didn't surprise James.Because in essence, he himself is such a crazy person.However, now that he has a wife and son, family life has really changed him to a great extent.He didn't dare to take risks like Sirius, but he also knew that he couldn't stop Sirius.

"Well, I agree, I won't say it." James sighed and said, "But it shouldn't matter if you tell Dumbledore?"

"Let's talk about it after everything is arranged. Otherwise, I'm afraid Dumbledore won't let us do this. Since you promised, I'll go to Peter now."

"Okay, then you take care. By the way, when you come, ride your motorcycle."

"Why do you want a motorcycle?" Sirius asked suspiciously.

"It's a secret. Anyway, it's related to your birthday present, so don't ask too much." James replied.

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

October 10, 31:15, Porter House.

"Okay, now you and the Prongs are bound together." Sirius breathed a sigh of relief after casting the complex spell of changing the Secret Keeper.

Peter smiled sheepishly, then said, "My mom... I mean, can she really move in with me? Would it be too much of a bother?"

"What are you talking about?" James patted the back of Peter's head. "Auntie moved here to help us look after Harry. I wish I could. You don't know how difficult that little thing is."

"Then I'll go home and pack my things now, and come over early tomorrow morning." Peter smiled again.

"Go quickly. Tomorrow I will cook a big meal for you and Auntie." Lily said with a smile.

"And you, Padfoot. Hurry up and bring me the motorcycle tomorrow. Otherwise, I won't be able to deliver your birthday present this year."

"I know! I will pick up Peter on a motorcycle tomorrow morning, and then I will send it to you, okay?"

23:45, Peter's house.

Voldemort had just cast a dementor on Peter, and Peter looked at this man who could take his life in a single thought with trepidation, with cold sweat on his face.

"They handed you that spell, and promised you to hide in your own secret house, and you thought you'd be safer that way, so you backed off, didn't you?"

"No, no!" screamed Peter, "I came to report to you, and you sent Mr. Rozier just as I was about to do it, and I... ah..."

Before Peter could finish speaking, Voldemort gave him a Cruciatus Curse, and Peter rolled on the ground in pain.

"You are not only disloyal, but also stupid," said Voldemort. "Evan told me that you and your Squib mother were packing when he came. If you want to come and report to me, what are you doing packing? I don't need to use inspiriting to guess the small thoughts on the wall."

Peter stared at Voldemort with wide eyes in horror, feeling that his time had come.Only one step away, just one step away, he will be completely safe, die like this, die like this... He feels so unwilling.

"So, what are you waiting for?" Voldemort asked sullenly.

"I……"

"Tell me the address, and I will spare you and your mother's life." Voldemort's threat was straightforward.

"The address is..." Peter took a deep breath, "Godric's Hollow, East Foot 105."

"Evan!" Voldemort yelled.The tall Death Eater pushed the door open and looked at the sweaty Peter on the ground with disgust on his face. He looked at Voldemort, bowed and asked, "What are your orders? My master."

"Clean up here, and don't let people see the traces of the struggle. Take him and the squib to your villa, watch closely, don't let him escape, I have to do something very important."

"Yes, my master."

23:51, Potter House.

"What's that noise at the door? Didn't Peter come early?" Lily asked.

"I'll go down and see."

23:53

"Lily, take Harry and run! It's him! Run! Run! I'll stop him—"

"Avada Kedavra!"

23:55

"Don't touch Harry! Don't touch Harry! Please - I promise anything -"

"Get out of the way - out of the way, girl -"

"Avada Kedavra!"

23:59

"Now, let me see, you little brat, what are you capable of defeating the greatest Dark Lord of all time, Avada Kedavra!"

"Ah~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

In the empty Potter house, only little Harry's unexplained crying echoed in the ruins.

In Spider's End, the black Dark Mark on Severus Snape's arm stabbed suddenly, and then it turned gray.

December 11, 1:2

"Severus, why... what happened at this time?" In the principal's office, Dumbledore looked at the panicked man in front of him in surprise.

But Snape didn't answer his question, but said anxiously: "Tell me, where did you hide Lily?!"

Dumbledore frowned: "I think we had a consensus that I will protect Lily, but I can't tell you where she is hiding, in case..."

"Don't mention his name!" Snape screamed. "He's gone!"

"Missing?" Dumbledore looked a little confused, "What is missing?"

Snape rolled up his sleeves to show Dumbledore: "This symbol, since it was engraved on my arm, has only appeared in two colors, black and red, but now, it is gray. What does it mean? ?" asked Snape.

Dumbledore thought, but didn't speak right away, so Snape continued on his own: "I just came from the Dark Lord's estate, and all the marks on the arms of the Death Eaters have turned gray. They are assigning a mission to find the Dark Lord wherever possible. I have received the mission first, and I will come out to inform you."

"What?!" Dumbledore stood up in a huff. "Are they going to look for the Dark Lord wherever they can? Then I must alert the Ministry of Magic immediately."

"I don't care about the Ministry of Magic shit! I care about Lily!" Snape snapped.

"I know. I'll send someone out to see how they're doing. I'll let you know as soon as I know."

"You just won't tell me where she is? You still won't trust me?!"

"Sorry, Severus, she's with her husband and son. And I know she's the only one you care about. I can't bet on James and Harry's life that you can be trusted. If you will Tell me who the traitor to the Order of the Phoenix really is..."

"I told you I didn't know! The Dark Lord kept it from all of us and didn't allow us to ask!" Snape roared like a wounded beast.

"Sorry. Then I will stick to my previous decision." Dumbledore looked at him sadly and said with a sigh.

Snape lowered his head dejectedly.

2:41

"Rubidor, I'm sorry to disturb your sleep, but something happened." Dumbledore knocked on the door of the cabin by the Forbidden Forest.

"It's okay, it's okay, I haven't lay down yet, something happened." Hagrid said as he invited Dumbledore into the room.

"I'm not sure yet, I hope I'm wrong. But... help me to visit James and Lily's home in Godric's Hollow."

"Why? Didn't you say before that you should try not to go to their house? To avoid being caught by the mysterious person..."

"I did say that before, but maybe... I don't know... I don't want to jump to conclusions. Actually, I should go there myself, but the Ministry of Magic is also very urgent. I can only leave this matter to Here you go. Remember, if something happens over there, you must help James and Lily protect little Harry. And...bring Harry to me, don't give him to anyone .”

"Okay, I'll do it right away."

3:26, Rozier Villa.

Evan Rozier walked up and down the villa, constantly looking at the Dark Mark on his arm, distraught.He knew that there was such a prophecy, and he also knew that eight out of ten things his master was going to do tonight were related to the prophecy.But the Dark Mark turned gray, which was too ominous.But he didn't dare to leave, he was afraid that after he left, the disgusting mother and son would take the opportunity to escape, and that would probably ruin the master's affairs.

But staying here so ignorant is really heart-wrenching.

He sat on the sofa, staring at the door in a daze, hoping that the master would come back quickly, but he did not expect that danger was approaching from behind.

"Bang!!!" There was a loud knocking sound, and Rozier fell down.Mrs. Pedirou held a bloody lamp in her hand, and stared at the fallen man in front of her with wide eyes.She didn't expect to succeed so easily.

It's because Rozier looked down on her too much. He thought she was an old lady with no magic power, so he just tied her up with ropes and didn't even lock the door of her room.

"Peter...Peter where are you locked up?" Madame Pedilou shouted.

Peter's voice came from underground.Mrs. Pedirou followed the voice to the outside of the dungeon.

"Oh my God, Mom, what's wrong with you?" Peter stared dumbfounded at his helpless mother, who opened his door with something like a wire in less than a minute. A prison door that doesn't open.

Seeing her son's shocked look, Mrs. Pedilou smiled wryly: "I never told you this, because I was afraid that you would look down on me. After I was abandoned by my parents, I had nowhere to go, so I became a pickpocket in desperation , learned to open all kinds of locks. This thing," she raised the "tool" in her hand, "is specially used to open magic doors. If I hadn't met your father later, I'm afraid I'm still here... Forget it, the past Let's not talk about it. It's a good thing that Death Eater underestimated the Squib, so I got it. Now, go find your friends and stop that monster!"

"No, it's too late, it's too late..." Peter said painfully, holding his head, "I don't want James to die, I never want James to die! But I have no other choice, I will die if I don't say anything, Both you and I will die, I have no other choice..."

Peter shook his head epileptically, and his words made Mrs. Pedirou feel very blocked.She hugged her son's head and said, "I know...I know! Let's get out of here first, and we'll talk about it after we get out of here."

Peter looked up at his mother, and finally nodded. They supported each other and fled outside the house, and then Apparated away.
