Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

Chapter 119: All tied up

"It's Sirius Black!"

I don't know who was the first to recognize Black. As soon as the shout sounded, all the little wizards present took out their wands and pointed at Black.

Zhang Xu raised his left hand above his head and made a gesture, and the surrounding students formed a circle, surrounding Black and Lupine.

"Calm down, things don't seem to be as simple as you think." Zhang Xu patted Harry on the shoulder and said to him.

After listening to Zhang Xu's words, Harry took a few deep breaths to calm down his excitement, and put down the hand that was about to cast a spell on Black just now.

At this time, Black also calmed down. During this period of time, he encountered too many accidents. He was almost boiled three times, and he was taken in by kind people during the period, which was enough to restore his confused head.

"You killed my parents?" Harry said in a trembling voice, raising his wand at the same time.

"I don't deny that." Black said to Harry very calmly.

At this moment, there was a "bang" from behind the onlookers.

The end of the wand in Snape's hand, who had lifted the Disillusionment Charm, erupted with snake-like bands, and automatically wrapped around Black's mouth, wrists and ankles. Black lost his balance and fell to the floor, unable to move.

Just now when Lupine was looking for someone in Hogwarts castle, he was discovered by Snape. Snape, who always thought that there was something wrong with Lupine, followed Lupine quietly.

"Revenge is sweet." Snape walked up to Black and said to him. "How I wished I was the one who caught you. Those dementors around Hogsmeade, they will see you Very happy, Blake. I dare say I'd give you a little kiss."

The sudden appearance of Snape surprised everyone, and Lupine and Black became nervous when they saw that he was going to find the dementors.

"Severus, you're wrong. It's not Sirius, it's him." Lupine said eagerly, pointing to the beer mug on the table.

"Don't you think your excuse was poor?" Snape said to Lupine. "A scrawny rat you think is the murderer?"

"He is Peter Pettigrew, an Animagus who has never been registered." Lupine said, pointing at Scabbers.

Lupine's words caused an uproar among the surrounding students,

This year, because of Black's escape from prison, the story of Peter Pettigrew was also reported, so they all knew the meaning of Lupine's words.

The most surprised were Harry and Ron.

In the Three Broomsticks before, Zhang Xu guessed that Pettigrew Peter was not dead, which made Harry excited for a while. Harry couldn't help but imagine Pettigrew Peter as something like Lupine. As a result, Lupine now told him that Peter Pettigrew not only turned into a mouse and lived with him for three years, but most importantly, he was also the murderer who caused the death of his parents.

And Ron's head was still in chaos at this time. The pet that had lived in his home for many years was actually Animagus, and it was Pettigrew Peter, which made his head unable to function.

"I think you'd better think about your life after you arrived in Azkaban. You helped Black sneak into Hogwarts twice, and the third time you happened to meet students who were holding a banquet and were arrested." Sneh said Poo, pointing his wand at Lupine.

The surrounding students heard Snape say that Lupine helped Black infiltrate Hogwarts the first two times, and all pointed their wands at Lupine.

Zhang Xu didn't want Snape to take the rhythm down like this, so he said to him: "Professor Snape, it doesn't matter whether this mouse is Peter Pettigrew or not, but he can be sure that he is an Animagus. I I think it’s better to let him change back to the prototype.”

"I don't think there is any need to do this." Snape said, staring at Zhang Xu.

Zhang Xu finally understood that Snape wanted to take this opportunity to kill Black and bring Lupine along with him.

Black almost killed Snape back then, if Harry's father hadn't rescued him, the grass on Snape's grave would be two meters high now.

From Snape's point of view, it was impossible not to take revenge.

From Zhang Xu's standpoint, he doesn't mind at all if Snape wants to take revenge. No matter whether Snape uses the Forgiveness Curse to leave Black's whole body, or Shenfeng Wuying cuts it into several pieces, it's all right for Zhang Xu. It doesn't matter.

Black lured Snape to find Lupine who turned into a werewolf. In his own opinion, he just thought it was fun, but in fact he underestimated the harm caused by his behavior, or didn't even think about what he would do. harm.

It's like a child upstairs who thought it was fun to throw things downstairs, so he kept throwing beer bottles from the top of the building downstairs, without thinking about the consequences of hitting someone. (The author used to live in a community where he almost killed a motorcycle rider. Fortunately, the motorcycle rider was wearing a motorcycle helmet with a foam layer inside.)

If it wasn't for Harry's father who was sensible and arrived in time to rescue Snape, otherwise not only the grass on Snape's grave, but also the graves of Black and Lupine in Azkaban would have to be weeded.

But on the other hand, if Snape took revenge now, then Voldemort's other Horcrux would not be available, which was quite difficult for Zhang Xu to accept.

"I think it's necessary." At this moment, a dignified voice came from the door of the Screaming Shack.

Scarlet, who was holding a wand, came to the Shrieking Shack at some point.

Ignoring Snape with a cold face, Scarlet went straight to the beer mug with Scabbers on it, staring at the shivering Scabbers under the mug.

Snape wanted to say something, but stopped as soon as he opened his mouth. He couldn't afford to offend the person in front of him, so he decisively followed his heart.

"Professor Scarlett..."

Before Lupine finished speaking, Scarlet turned around, a spell knocked him down, and then conjured a rope to bind him firmly.

"I'll give you a chance to talk, but not now." Scarlet said, looking at Lupine and Black who were tied up on the ground.

Then Scarlet removed Scabbers' beer mug, and a blue-white light from his wand hit Scabbers.

After a while, Banban was suspended in the air, his body writhing crazily. When it fell to the floor, there was another blinding flash, and then a head appeared on the ground, with limbs sticking out, and a moment later, a man stood where Scabbers had been, wincing and writhing. hands.

Seeing that the mouse really turned into a wizard, the surrounding students exclaimed, and Ron, Harry, and Hermione even shouted.

When Lupine and Black, who were tied up, saw this man, they squirmed excitedly. They wanted to shout something, but their mouths were tied up with ropes, and they could only make a "woo-woo" sound.

"Peter Pettigrew?" Scarlet asked, staring at the wizard.

"Yes...it's me," Peter answered in a high-pitched voice.

Scarlet didn't reply, just like he did with Lupin, he used a spell to knock Peter down and make a rope to bind him tightly.

"Take them all back to Hogwarts, to the Whomping Willow." Scarlet said to the surrounding students.

Seeing this, Snape walked into the secret passage back to Hogwarts without looking back.

Seeing this, the other students also used the Levitating Charm to lure the three of them into the secret passage.

Before Harry left, he looked at Scarlet and Zhang Xu, and Zhang Xu gave him a reassuring look.

In the end, only Zhang Xu and Scarlet were left in the Screaming Shack. Zhang Xu tugged on Scarlet's sleeve.

"What happened to you today?" Zhang Xu asked.

Just now he felt that there was something wrong with Scarlet's state. Usually, she was not so irritable, and she would not cast a spell on a disagreement.

"It's fine," Scarlet said, "don't worry."

Scarlet said so, Zhang Xu couldn't continue to ask.

Half an hour later, the Whomping Willow was surrounded by people.

The lighting magic of the students illuminated the surroundings like daylight.

On the trunk of the Whomping Willow, Lupine, Blake, and Peter were tightly bound, and the branches of the Whomping Willow kept passing in front of them.

On the side of the Whomping Willow, Dumbledore, the four deans and other professors stood outside the range of the Whomping Willow branches flying. Standing beside the professors were the Minister of Magic Fudge who had just arrived and his confidantes. They all had serious expressions on their faces.

Harry stood at the front, with Scarlet next to him saying something to him.

Scarlet said to Harry: "One of the characteristics of Whomping Willow is to press and hold the knots on its branches for more than a minute, and at the same time pour some special potion on its trunk, it can distinguish the knots tied to the branches. Whether the person on its trunk is telling the truth or a lie. If he is telling the truth, the Whomping Willow will not attack him. If he is telling a lie, then the Whomping Willow will attack him."

"Then it's your time." Scarlet patted Harry on the shoulder and said, "Just ask about what happened back then."

Zhang Xu came to Dumbledore and Fudge, and asked them: "Professor Dumbledore, Mr. Minister, does this method of distinguishing whether you are telling a lie or not work?"

Fudge nodded and said, "This method is one of the lie detection methods approved by the Ministry of Magic. In the previous materials of the Ministry of Magic, there are many examples of successful lie detection using this method."

Dumbledore also followed up and said: "It's just that a hundred years ago, the method of making the potion required to use this method has been lost in the market. I didn't expect that the Scarlet family still kept the method of making this potion."

Zhang Xu heard the two big men say that this method works, so he took out snacks and watched the excitement.

At first Peter wanted to tell Harry that he was wronged, but he was pulled by a branch of the Whomping Willow to tell the truth.

The final result was not as Zhang Xu expected, just like in the "Story", Harry's father and his godfather were playing tricks, and ended up playing with their own life.
