Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 797 What happened to this world

  In the darkness, Sirius opened his eyes and woke up, and found himself lying on a comfortable and soft bed.

  Sirius sat up suddenly, looked up and looked around, the surroundings were pitch black, and he couldn't see anything clearly.

  This is definitely not Azkaban Prison.

  If the Ministry of Magic caught him, they would definitely let the dementors **** his soul directly.

   "Where is this place?"

  Sirius quietly turned into a black dog so that he could see clearly in the dark.

  Lupine was lying on the bed next to him, and Harry and his friends were lying on the opposite bed.

   "This is... the school hospital?"

  At this moment, Sirius's head was in chaos. He couldn't figure out why he appeared in the school hospital, and he was racking his brains to recall what happened to him before he lost consciousness.

  Someone brought him here, but why didn't the other party hand him over to the Ministry of Magic? Even if he was waiting for someone from the Ministry of Magic to come over, he needed to be locked up alone instead of throwing him in the school hospital unsuspectingly.

"woke up?"

  In the darkness, a sudden voice interrupted Black's meditation.

   Sirius shook his ears, looked up and looked around again, but still couldn't find anyone who spoke.

   "Here, the photo on the table." The voice reminded.

   Sirius followed the voice, and his eyes fell on the photo on the bed cabinet. He knew the person in the photo, his great-grandfather Phineas Nigellus Black.

"What a worrying guy." Phineas looked at the approaching dog head and complained, "You still need me, the deceased, to help you solve the problem, and can you change back to human form? I don't want to talk to dogs."

  Sirius didn't want to pay attention to the nagging person in the photo, and was considering whether to slip away now, Phineas' words drew his attention back.

   "If you want to know your situation, just listen to me, it's much better than you messing around there."

   "Long story short."

Sirius turned back into a human form, took the photo and walked to Lupin's hospital bed, picked up his wand from the bed cabinet and created a ray of white light, his eyes swept across the old man's face, and he couldn't help feeling a little worried about Lupine's body , he looked weak.

"I found someone to help you clear the charges of the wanted criminal, so you can stand here and talk to me now instead of being thrown into Azkaban prison." Phineas said ramblingly: "Uh, you You can no longer enter Azkaban Prison, and if the Ministry of Magic catches you, you will definitely be killed directly."

   "Clean up the charges?"

  Sirius looked away from Lupin, looked at the old man in the photo, and asked suspiciously, "What do you mean?"

   "Literally." Phineas said angrily.

  Sirius couldn't believe his ears, he suppressed his pounding, and asked hoarsely: "This sounds ridiculous."

"While you were unconscious, Mr. Albert Anderson had captured Peter Pettigrew for you, and handed that guy over to the Ministry of Magic, and by the way Dumbledore cleared your name." Feeney Yas's voice was very light, but his tone was full of inexplicable pride and emotion, "So, you are no longer a wanted criminal."

  Sirius couldn't help but widen his eyes, the news was so dreamy that he couldn't believe it was true.

"What you need to do now is to transfer five thousand Galleons to Mr. Anderson's vault in Gringotts as soon as possible." Phineas warned sternly: "Although I promised it for you without authorization, don't try to Forgive this Garen, Mr. Anderson kindly let you go, and saved the lives of you and your godson Harry Potter, you must thank him when you have time."

   "What happened to five thousand Galleons?"

  Sirius Black was still a bit confused, but he remembered the name Albert Anderson, who saved him, Harry, and helped capture Pettigrew Peter, clearing him of his crimes and restoring his honor.

   "Of course it's the price of paying for Mr. Anderson's help. You are not friends, and you don't even know each other. Naturally, the other party can't help you for free. This price is already very cheap. People need to understand and be content."

   Phineas began to tell Black what he knew. Although he didn't know how Albert did it, this did not prevent Phineas from connecting these things together.

   "I see. I will write to Gringotts later and ask them to help transfer five thousand Galleons to Mr. Albert Anderson's vault."

   After Sirius Black finished listening, it took him a long time to recover.

Although he failed to kill Pettigrew Peter to avenge James and Lily in the end, it is undoubtedly the best result at the moment. Just like Phineas said, he really needs to thank Albert for not letting him go. Because of 10,000 Galleons, he was arrested and handed over to the Ministry of Magic for a bounty; thanks to the other party for saving him and Harry from being surrounded by dementors, they were not allowed to be sucked away by the dementors and become soulless Thanks to the other party for stopping the Auror of the Ministry of Magic so hard that he had the opportunity to wait for Dumbledore's arrival and fight for him to clear his charges; and thank Mr. Anderson for giving him a brand new life.

   This is no longer enough to express his gratitude with a mere five thousand Galleons.

  As for Mr. Anderson, Sirius has already guessed who he is.

  The student who was staring at the black dog in the alley that day, Blake was sure that was the one.

  Although he didn’t experience the joy that Da Qiu got, Sirius still looks forward to a new beginning, a new life!

"Find someone to marry early and have a few children. Don't let the direct line of the Black family be cut off. Your younger brother Regulus is dead, and you are the only one left in the direct line of the Black family." Phineas babbled Said: "And remember to thank Mr. Anderson very much. You are still alive thanks to him. He also had a lot of trouble with the Ministry of Magic because of you."

   "What's going on?" Sirius didn't have the slightest liking for the Ministry of Magic. He was thrown into Azkaban Prison without approval.

   "What else could be going on? Peter is still alive and the Ministry of Magic has become a joke. Those guys don't care whether you are innocent or not."

"I see."

  Sirius stuffed Phineas's photo into his pocket, walked to Harry with the help of the faint white light on his wand, and checked the situation of his godson.

The people on the hospital bed on Harry's right began to move. When Ron opened his eyes, he noticed some faint lights coming from the left in the darkness. When he turned his head, he saw a figure sitting beside Harry's bed. , the other party just looked up.

  In an instant, the figure in front of him overlapped with Black who broke into the student dormitory with a knife.

   "Ahhhh..."

  Screams rang out in the school hospital, immediately waking up Madam Pomfrey who was resting next door.

"What's wrong?"

  Madam Pomfrey in pajamas hurried into the ward holding her wand.

   "Boo, Blake!"

  Ron raised his arm that wasn't bound by bandages, pointed at Black beside Harry's hospital bed, and screamed in horror: "He's Sirius Black."

"Calm down, Weasley." Madam Pomfrey stared at Sirius who was up in the middle of the night complainingly, fetched a cup of tranquilizer for Ron, and then explained to him: "Mr. Black is no longer He is a wanted man, he is innocent."

  Actually, Madam Pomfrey was equally bewildered when she first heard the news.

   Later, Dumbledore explained the matter to her clearly, and it took Madam Pomfrey a long time to accept the so-called "truth".

   "Sorry to scare you."

  Black was also very helpless. He really didn't intend to scare Ron. Others didn't know that he had recovered his reputation and still regarded him as a wanted criminal.

   "Since you are innocent, why did you break into our dormitory with a knife at that time?" Ron was still brooding over that incident.

"I'm looking for your pet, that mouse named Scabbers. It's actually a wizard named Peter Pettigrew. That guy's Animagus is a mouse." Sirius explained to Ron, who was still a little uneasy .

   "Peter Pettigrew has been killed by you." Ron felt ridiculous.

"No, he's still alive, and he's been imprisoned in Azkaban prison by the Ministry of Magic, otherwise how do you think I recovered my reputation." Sirius didn't care about Ron's eyes, and said hoarsely: "Tomorrow morning you probably You can see related reports in the Daily Prophet."

  Ron was in a daze, and he didn't understand what happened at all. Why did the whole world change when he woke up.

  In fact, he is not the only one who is confused, the entire school hospital, and even the entire British wizarding world will soon be confused.

  They didn't understand how the vicious fugitive Sirius Black, who was still wanted by the Ministry of Magic yesterday, turned into a tragic hero who silently guarded Harry Potter for twelve years overnight?

  Peter Pettigrew, who was once regarded as a hero, is still alive and has become the murderer who betrayed the Potter family.

   Except for a few who know the truth of the whole thing, the others are destined to continue to be confused for a while after watching the "Daily Prophet" in the early morning.

  What is going on in this world.

  …

Harry suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the hospital bed. He looked up and looked around, and found that he was in the school hospital. What made Harry even more horrified was that there was a middle-aged man dressed in sloppy clothes sitting next to him. Recognized the identity of the other party, Sirius Black.

   "You...why are you here." Harry stepped back uncomfortably, trying to stay away from Black while reaching for his wand.

   "Sorry, it seems that I scared you." Black looked at his outfit and said helplessly, "Lupine is right, I should change first before coming to visit you."

   "Why are you here?" Harry was still a little nervous, as Black was still just a vicious wanted criminal in his impression.

   "I'm free." Sirius handed the newspaper in his hand to Harry and said, "Peter Pettigrew has been imprisoned in Azkaban prison by the Ministry of Magic, so my reputation has been restored and I am no longer a wanted criminal."

  Harry looked at the picture on the front page news of the latest issue of "Daily Prophet", then raised his head to look at Sirius in front of him, opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

  Honestly speaking, Harry's mind is in a mess right now. Why did the world change so dramatically when he woke up?

  The once vicious wanted criminal has turned into a tragic hero. The reason why Sirius Black escaped from prison was to protect him is simply absurd, but all this is still true, and Harry has no doubts about life.

   "It's hard for me to understand your mood." A wry smile appeared on Sirius's face: "Actually, I didn't know this until not long ago."

   When Sirius just woke up, he found himself lying on the Hogwarts hospital bed, and he even wanted to sneak away. In the end, his great-grandfather, Phineas, who he had never liked much, explained everything to him.

   Knowing that Phineas paid someone else to clear his name, Sirius also took a long time to accept this ridiculous answer.

   "So you are innocent, Pettigrew Peter is the traitor who betrayed my parents." Harry asked tentatively.

   "Yes." Blake said guiltily: "I'm sorry, if it wasn't for my reasons, Peter would not have succeeded."

   "Is Peter Pettigrew really alive? Is he really Ron's Scabbers?" Harry pressed on, desperate to find out.

   "Yes, he's still alive." Sirius said softly, "To be honest, I'm still at a loss. It wasn't long ago that I found out that Mr. Anderson captured Peter and helped me restore my reputation."

   "Mr. Anderson?" Harry asked with a long mouth: "You mean Albert Anderson?"

   "Yes, if there is no one else in Hogwarts with that name, it should be him." Sirius said with emotion when talking about this matter.

   "Albert Anderson?"

  Harry's head was still in turmoil, listening to Black's words vaguely.

   "What happened after I passed out."

   "I don't know too well." After hesitating for a moment, Sirius changed the subject, "I don't know if anyone told you? I am your godfather."

   "Yes, I know." Harry said dryly.

   "I've got my reputation back now, if you want one, a different home…" Black said, surreptitiously observing the changes in Harry's expression, though he tried unsuccessfully to hide his uneasiness.

  However, Harry didn't notice the change in Sirius' face, but was attracted by his proposal.

   "Living with you?" Harry's eyes widened in disbelief: "Leaving the Dursleys' house?"

   "Yes." Black nodded and said, "Of course, if you are willing to live with your aunt and uncle, I can understand."

   "Are you crazy?" Harry said hoarsely. "Of course I want to leave the Dursleys!"

  At this moment, Harry felt that he had been hit by luck. He was finally leaving the Dursleys and living with his parents' best friend, Blake.

  The excitement made Harry dizzy, and he expected the look on the Dursleys' faces if he told them that he was going to live with the wanted man they'd seen on TV.

  However, what exactly is going on, Harry still hasn't figured out what's going on.

  Sirius actually didn't know much, so he told Harry what he knew.

"So, Ron's pet mouse is Peter Pettigrew? Hermione's cat came after Scabbers because Crookshanks immediately saw that Scabbers wasn't a mouse? So it wasn't Lupine who helped you invade the castle Professor, but a cat?"

  Harry felt that the more he listened, the more absurd he became, especially Hermione's cat actually helped Black steal Neville's note and ordered the owl.

   Also, the Firebolt was actually a gift from Sirius.

  However, what stunned Harry the most was still to come. The reason why Albert was willing to help Sirius clear his name was because Sirius' great-great-grandfather paid five thousand Galleons to hire him to help.

"Harry, I can chat with you here, thanks to Mr. Anderson, he helped me solve my troubles, and it is normal for me to give him a sum of money." Sirius smiled wryly: "Actually, Mr. Anderson has been following me for a long time Well, if he cared about Gallon, he would have handed me over to the Ministry of Magic long ago, but Mr. Anderson didn't do that. He seemed to have discovered Peter's existence. Later, he drove away a large number of dementors, Saved our lives, and I heard he and his friends brought down the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic... Anyway, Mr. Anderson gave me a whole new life."

  Harry listened to Black with his mouth open from beginning to end.

"After Mr. Anderson got the money, he seemed to distribute it to a few friends who were with him last night. I heard that they planned to use the money to open a store to realize their dreams." Sirius was very grateful and admired Abel Special, "He also paid a large sum of Galleons to hire Lupin, so that Lupine, who quit his job, can live a decent life for a long time. I will have to find time to thank him someday."

   "I see." Harry nodded stiffly, "Wait, you said Professor Lupine resigned?"

   "Yes, he resigned himself, and he should be packing his luggage in the office now." Black said softly: "I will leave school with him later."

   "Why?" Harry asked in surprise.

"Snape told everyone that Lupine was a werewolf this morning." Speaking of this, Black gritted his teeth angrily, "If Lupine doesn't resign, Dumbledore will be flooded with owl letters from the parents Nobody wants a werewolf teaching their kids, and he doesn't want to take the risk, God knows what would have happened if it wasn't for Albert."

Black continued, "Dumbledore used Snape's Veritaserum to get Peter to tell the truth, and I think the best chance for that guy to send me to Azkaban was lost, and thanks to his I just got cleared of Veritaserum, which was a big blow to him, so he did it to get back at Lupine."
