Harry Potter: The Age of Magic
Chapter 204
Harry looked at Dumbledore with doubtful eyes, and then at Lupin. After seeing them nodding, he finally believed the fact, "I only heard that you escaped from Azkaban to kill
I!"
"No, Harry, you have to understand one thing. There is no one in this world who wants to protect you more than me." Black said in an excited tone.
"But you killed many people..."
Seeing Blake's sincere expression, Harry's vigilant expression finally relaxed a little, but he still retained a little bit of vigilance for a murderer who escaped from prison.
"No! Harry, it wasn't me who killed that person, no... I thought it was me who did something wrong, that's why I'm in Azkaban... But then I found out... I found out it was Peter Pettigrew!"
Black was so eager to explain the situation to Harry that he was talking all over the place with a hammer and a stick, and was even stumbling over his words, making it difficult to understand.
But fortunately, Lupine next to him occasionally helped, and Dumbledore would explain it just right at the critical moment. Only then did Harry understand the ins and outs of the matter.
The sugar bowl fell from his hand and hit the desk. Harry stared blankly at the three people in front of him, everything he had just heard echoing in his head.
At this moment, strong hatred emerged from the bottom of Harry's heart. It was resentment towards Voldemort and hatred towards the enemy who had betrayed his parents.
"Harry...Harry?"
Seeing him standing there blankly, Black immediately said with concern, "I know all this makes you very sad, but you must face it bravely, Harry!"
Harry's voice was dry and he stared at Black closely:
"Where's Peter Pettigrew?"
"He must still be in the castle, Harry, don't worry, we can definitely catch him and avenge your parents!"
Blake spoke very solemnly, sounding like he was taking an oath.
At this time, the door to the principal's office was knocked again.
Rossi, who followed Snape into the principal's office, could never have imagined that Harry, Lupine and Black were all here.
She raised her eyes in surprise, staring directly at Dumbledore with her sea-blue eyes.
"Peter Pettigrew!"
Seeing Peter being led by Snape, Black yelled and rushed towards him, not even noticing that he was still unconscious.
Snape's eyes narrowed, and he gently waved his wand to block Black.
"I think he's my trophy."
His voice was calm, and his proud eyes only stayed on Black for a second, and then he turned to Dumbledore, who was sitting in the main seat of the office, "Headmaster, why are the fugitives from Azkaban here? I think you should understand
Our Miss Auror will explain."
"ha?"
Rossi was stunned for a moment when his name was called, and then looked at Snape with some amusement, cursing in his heart, "Obviously you want to know, right? But you will borrow someone else's name."
"No, Rosie, Black is not a fugitive."
Before Dumbledore could speak, Harry hurriedly explained, "He shouldn't even be a criminal. You know, the person who really should be locked up in Azkaban is Peter, Peter Pettigrew!"
We knew it earlier than you, silly boy!
Rosie complained in her mind, nodded towards Harry with a smile, and then looked at Dumbledore again.
She also wanted to know why Black appeared in Dumbledore's office. If Black had been in contact with Dumbledore since he escaped from Azkaban or entered Hogwarts, then what was behind this incident?
The details are worthy of scrutiny.
I think the reason why Snape raised such a question to Dumbledore was because he had the same suspicion in his heart.
"I came to the professor for help."
Black explained, "I originally thought that since it was confirmed that Peter was really near Hogwarts, then if we wanted to catch him, we had to get the help and support of Professor Dumbledore."
Having said this, he looked at Rosie with a smile in his eyes: "I didn't expect you to find him first, Rosie."
Blake easily judged the fact that it was Rosie who found Peter.
So he said this, overtly and covertly refuting what Snape said about the spoils of war.
"This is also a coincidence. I heard Hermione mention Ron and thought of Ron's abnormal behavior in the past few months, so I thought of the possibility of Peter pretending to be Ron."
As Rossi spoke, a sigh suddenly emerged in his heart: There have been too many coincidences recently, right?
"He's pretending to be Ron?"
Harry suddenly screamed and ran to Rosie and grabbed her arm, "What about the real Ron? Where is he? How is he?"
"He was sent to the school doctor's office by Hermione. He seems to be fine." Rosie comforted him warmly.
Hearing this, Harry's eyes paused on the unconscious Peter. After hesitating for a moment, he finally looked firmly at Dumbledore:
"Professor, I want to see Ron..."
Harry's words seemed to make Dumbledore very happy, and he smiled happily and said:
"I'm very happy, Harry! You chose the latter between hatred and friendship. This is very rare. Really, I am very proud of you."
Having said this, Dumbledore smiled and waved his hand:
"Go and see your friends!"
After Harry left, he whispered silently: "He's not the same, isn't he?"
"Huh? Who is Dumbledore talking to?"
Seeing Dumbledore's lips opening and closing silently several times, Rossi couldn't help but feel a little confused.
What happened next was no surprise.
Peter Pettigrew faintly woke up under the influence of the resurrection spell, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he was directly faced with the accusations and questionings of two friends who had been separated for many years.
When Peter blurted out "It was Professor Dumbledore who sent me to be an undercover Death Eater", Dumbledore just replied calmly:
"But I didn't ask you to betray your friend, Peter! Under the circumstances at that time, no one was more suitable than you for the undercover mission. I remember I said this to you."
Upon hearing Dumbledore's words, Peter's face suddenly turned pale, and he cried out:
"No, that's not the case. It was Sirius who betrayed James! He suggested that James make me the secret keeper, and then the Dark Lord came to find me! It was him who betrayed James! It was him!"
"I never betrayed James and Lily!"
Blake roared with excitement, his voice becoming hoarse because of this, "I would rather die than betray them!"
Seeing his ferocious expression, Peter's body suddenly stiffened, and then he cried out in pain:
"No, it must be you! It must be you! You and James have such a good relationship, you can betray James, why should I die for this? Why..."
"Then you should die!!"
Lu Ping stepped forward angrily, lifted him up from the ground, and scolded him, "Even if you die, you can't betray your friends. We will do the same for you!"
Peter was thrown out hard, his head hit the wall, and he fell into coma again.
Perhaps affected by anger, or perhaps it was natural to go undercover when Voldemort gained power, no one in the office mentioned the matter of Peter Pettigrew being sent as an undercover agent by Dumbledore.
It wasn't until the Ministry of Magic sent someone to take away Black and Peter, and Lupine as a witness also went with them, that Snape, who had been silent, asked Dumbledore again:
"You know he is such a coward, why did you send him undercover?"
"In that case, I have no further choice, Snape."
Dumbledore sighed, "I misjudged people's hearts..."
