New Professor at Hogwarts

"Dumbledore, Minerva said you caught Sirius?" Fudge came over and asked in a face-to-face manner.

"Minister, Sirius, Sirius Black, he's right here!" Another Auror shouted loudly. He saw Sirius standing at the back and immediately took out his wand from his pocket and wanted to fire the magic wand. curse.

"What? Ah, yes, Sirius!" Fudge was also surprised and took out his wand.

"Minister, I think you should give me a chance to speak." Dumbledore said politely.

Fudge ignored Dumbledore's words and instead yelled: "Quickly, catch Sirius! Dumbledore, you actually protected such a vicious murderer?"

"Minister!" Dumbledore's voice suddenly became louder. With lightning speed, he pulled out the Elder Wand, removed the weapons of several Aurors, including Fudge and Kingsley, and then grabbed them in his hand.

Fudge's hands were empty. He looked at Dumbledore blankly, as if he was meeting Dumbledore for the first time today. His eyes showed an extremely angry look, and he said: "Dumbledore, I have always...trusted you so much." ...You have finally been exposed. You must have been peeping at the position of Minister of Magic for a long time, and you finally took action today, right? You finally couldn't help it, Dumbledore?"

The expressions of Professor McGonagall, Snape, Professor Flitwick, and Lupine all changed. They were both surprised and disgusted. They froze at Cornelius Fudge, as if they could see him clearly for the first time.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione were too young to understand the specific situation and the political struggle, so they looked confused and confused at the moment.

Xia Ran was watching idly. What kind of person was Fudge? He was familiar with the plot of the original time and space, and he understood it very clearly. He was a relatively capable wizard with a strong desire for power.

But it was obvious that his reputation and ability were far inferior to Dumbledore, which gave him an extremely uneasy feeling. His ministerial throne seemed to be in danger of being usurped by Dumbledore at any time, at least in Fudge's view. Is such that.

"I have never had this idea, Cornelius." Dumbledore looked at Fudge with sharp eyes and said, "But here we have an innocent man who has suffered for many years in prison for no reason, and there is also a real murderer. I think you should calm down and listen to what I have to say. As for this spell? It’s the only way to calm you down at the moment.”

"Okay, okay! I want to see what you will say, Dumbledore?" Fudge said angrily.

"I will be happy to help the Minister." Dumbledore said politely, "As you can see now, Sirius, the wanted criminal of the Ministry of Magic; Peter Pettigrew, a former so-called hero, was awarded the Order of Merlin, First Class. The dead warriors are now in front of you."

Fudge seemed to have just seen Peter Pettigrew, his eyes widened, staring straight at Peter Pettigrew lying on the ground.

"He, Peter Pettigrew...isn't he dead?"

"Obviously, Cornelius, he is still alive." Dumbledore said, "This is what I want to say, about who betrayed the Potters twelve years ago and led to the death of the Potters."

With that said, Dumbledore looked at Snape again and said, "Severus, have you brought the Veritaserum?"

Snape nodded slightly.

"Trouble," said Dumbledore.

Snape took out a small bottle from his arms, which contained a clear liquid. He opened the cap and carefully dropped a few drops into Peter Pettigrew's mouth. His desperate eyes suddenly became dull and his cheeks relaxed. Go down.

Veritaserum is a special magic potion. The words spoken by a person who takes the potion are 100% true, without a single lie. It is perfect for interrogating messages.

"Can you hear me?" Dumbledore asked.

Peter Pettigrew trembled, but replied in a flat tone without emotion: "You can hear it."

Fudge's face seemed to twitch strangely.

At this time, the students in the auditorium woke up one after another because the previous quarrel was too loud, and heard voices outside the door. One of them was the principal Dumbledore, and the other seemed to be the Minister of Magic, Cornell. Leigh Fudge? !

Many bold students crept out of their sleeping bags, ran to the door, and eavesdropped on the conversations of several people outside.

Creak!

The door was suddenly opened at this time.

The little wizards were stunned for a moment.

But it was Xia Ran who pushed open the door of the auditorium, looked at the group of stunned little wizards behind the door, smiled, and said: "You also have the right to know about this matter, there is no need to eavesdrop, just watch in an open and honest manner. Yes, but you have to be quiet and don’t talk."

Looking at Xia Ran, Dumbledore and Fudge ignored his actions. Indeed, this matter could no longer be hidden, and Dumbledore had never thought of hiding it from others.

The little wizards immediately swarmed over and looked at Sirius with surprise and fear, but they still followed Professor Frémont's advice. Even though their hearts were scratching their heads and they were extremely curious, they remained silent.

"I hope you will tell us." Dumbledore said calmly, "Who was the person who surrendered to Voldemort and betrayed the Potters?"

People held their breath.

Peter Pettigrew trembled twice again, and still said in a calm tone: "It's me! I'm an undercover agent of the Dark Lord. He caught me and he wanted to kill me. I had no choice but to take refuge under him and work for him. Doing business and delivering various intelligence messages. I am also the Potters’ confidential keeper. I informed the Dark Lord of the news and told them the Potters’ specific address. The Dark Lord was very happy.”

Wow——

The crowd was instantly in an uproar, and heated discussions started one after another.

"Sirius is innocent? Who is this person?"

"Peter Pettigrew! I recognize him. He is the wizard who died at the hands of Sirius. He has been dead for a long time. Why is he still alive?"

The crowd murmured.

Fudge's face couldn't help but twitch.

Then Dumbledore asked Peter Pettigrew several more questions. Under the influence of Veritaserum, Peter Pettigrew answered them all in detail, and the crowd gradually changed their attitude. In the end, everyone felt disgusted and disgusted. Looking at Peter Pettigrew in the distance.

Many people looked very disgusted after witnessing Peter Pettigrew.

The truth of what happened twelve years ago has been revealed to the world today.

"Cornelly, this is the truth, you know the effect of Veritaserum." Dumbledore said happily.

"Yeah, I know." Fudge said with a tight face, "Kingsley, Delis, take Peter Pettigrew away. He will spend the rest of his life in Azkaban Prison, and I will also be there. A meeting was held later to strip Peter Pettigrew of all titles and restore Sirius' reputation, proving his innocence."

After he finished speaking, he immediately turned around and left.

"Cornelly, please wait a moment," Dumbledore called.

"What's the matter?" Fudge turned around impatiently.

Dumbledore said politely: "There is another very important thing that I must tell you and make it public. Everyone has the right to know."

"What?" Fudge had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Xia Ran shook her head secretly. Judging from Fudge's performance just now, after Dumbledore really told the important news - the return of the Dark Lord Voldemort - the split between him and Dumbledore was inevitable.
