Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 135-Two Letters
The next morning, Hogwarts quickly drove out of the station in heavy smoke, and Maca stood on the platform and waved goodbye to Harry and the others.He seemed a little absent-minded, and Willie was standing beside him-which made Hermione feel awkward for no reason.
When Maca's figure was too small to be seen anymore, Harry and the others drew back into the carriage.
"That Willie didn't show up all semester, but when Maca decided to stay at school, she showed up again!" Hermione said solemnly, "There must be a problem!"
"What can be the problem with this!" Ron said indifferently.
Hermione pursed her lips, turned her head and looked at Harry—at the moment Harry was looking at Hogwarts, which was hidden from view by a mountain.
It will take two full months to see Hogwarts again!
"Oh, be happy, Harry!" Hermione said to comfort her friend.
"I'm fine," Harry said quickly. "I'm just thinking about the holidays."
"Yes, I've been thinking about it," Ron said. "Harry, you must come and live with us... I will say okay with my parents, and then I will call you a slap. Now I know how to type'snap words'!"
"It's the phone, Ron," Hermione said. "Really, you should take Muggle studies next year..."
Ron ignored her, and he went on.
"... This summer there is the Quidditch World Cup! How about it, Harry? Come to my house and we will go to the game together! Dad can always get tickets from the unit."
This suggestion made Harry happy.
"Yes, I bet the Dursleys would be happy to let me go...especially after I did something like that to Aunt Maggie..."
"Harry," Hermione said, looking back suddenly, "Look, what's that outside the window?"
Harry turned and looked outside, only to see a huge shadow rushing in through the open window quickly, and landed firmly on the empty seat beside Harry.
That is Marfa!That big owl in Maca!
Hedwig on one side shrank, and it was suddenly pushed aside by Marfa.And Crookshanks sat up in the seat, looking at it warily with those big yellow eyes.
Mafa stood on the seat with one leg, the other paw was loosened, and a little gray owl rolled down beside the cushion.
Afterwards, it casually placed the envelope in his mouth on Harry's lap, and immediately spread its wings out of the window.The whole process was very fast, which made the three people in the carriage a little unresponsive.
At this moment, Crookshanks glanced at the little owl again, which seemed a little interested.Ron noticed this sensitively and grabbed the little owl.
Harry picked up the letter and wrote it to him!
He tore open the letter and yelled, "Sirius wrote it!"
"What?" Ron and Hermione said suspiciously. "Is there anything he didn't say? Read on—"

Dear Harry:
I hope this letter will be received before you arrive at your aunt and uncle's house.I don't know if they are used to delivering letters to owls.
In fact, when you receive this letter, it means that I have left Hogwarts-without telling you where to hide, in case this letter is handed to someone by mistake.I have always been a little skeptical about the reliability of the owl, but Maca looks very reassuring.
I believe those dementors are still looking for me, but they have no hope of finding me again.I plan to let some Muggles see me soon, away from Hogwarts, so that the security measures at the castle can be withdrawn.
In our short meeting, one thing I have never had a chance to tell you is that it is me who sent you the Firebolt.
...

"Ha!" Hermione said triumphantly.
"Yes, but he didn't do anything on it, did he?" Ron said, "Ouch!"
The little owl was now crowing happily on his hand, and it had already pecked one of his fingers, as if thinking it was a way of expressing kindness.
——————
...
Maca asked his Marfa to help me order this owl at the post office-I used your name, but told them to go to my own vault at Gringotts No. 711 to get the money.
Please think of it as a 13th birthday gift from your godfather.
I think I shocked you. It was the night you left your uncle's house last year, and I am willing to apologize for that.I just wanted to take a look at you before I went to the north, but I think you seemed scared when you saw me.
I am attaching something to you in the letter, which I think will make your stay at Hogwarts more enjoyable next year.If you need to find me, just send a letter!Your owl will find me... I will write to you soon.
Sirius
——————
Harry searched eagerly in the envelope, with a piece of parchment inside.He looked at it quickly, and suddenly felt warm and content, as if he had drunk a bottle of hot butterbeer.
On that piece of paper, there was a sentence written: I, Sirius Black, the godfather of Harry Potter, hereby agree that he will go to Hogsmeade this weekend.
"For Dumbledore, this is good enough!" Harry said happily, and he went to read Sirius' letter again."Wait a minute, there is a postscript... Oh! Ron, this little owl is for you!"
Ron's eyes widened suddenly, and the little owl was still crying excitedly.
"Keep it?" he said uncertainly, and looked at the owl carefully.
After watching it for a while, Harry and Hermione were so surprised that he actually took it to Crookshanks to sniff.
"What do you think?" Ron asked Crookshanks. "It must be an owl?"
"Huh?" At this moment, Hermione seemed to find something outside the window, "It's another owl!"
Harry and Ron both turned their heads to look, but the gray-brown owl did not slow down, but flew straight in the direction of Hogwarts.
...
The person who received the letter was Maca.
For him, this letter is definitely not good news.Because, at this time, a notification document from the Ministry of Magic.
——————
Dear Mr. McLean:
According to relevant information and records of the personnel involved in the case of the Division (Magic Law Enforcement Division), you have a major connection with the consecutive homicides in Hogsmeade Village.
Due to your actions that day, the death of the wizard has been confirmed. Law enforcement officers from the Ministry of Magic will arrive at your location within a short period of time. The Ministry of Magic will seize your wand and impose temporary detention and cooperation with the investigation.
Rufus Scrimgeour
Ministry of Magic, Magic Law Enforcement Department, Auror Office.

Although Maca had long been prepared to go to a Ministry of Magic, the wording of this notice was so strong and unscrupulous that he frowned.
This notice only mentions that he killed someone, but it doesn't mean the identity of the deceased.It stands to reason that after Peter Pettigrew was frozen, the black energy that enveloped his whole body had completely disappeared, and the Ministry of Magic had clearly known his true identity.
Although there may also be a confidential relationship in it, this does not prevent Maca from guessing other possibilities.
He had a hunch, there must be other things waiting for him!
"There is a smell of conspiracy." Maca shook the notice casually, showing a pensive expression...
When two Aurors appeared in the school with a whole team of batters, not only Dumbledore, but several professors were alarmed.
"What happened?" Professor McGonagall looked at the Aurors who were blocking the gate of the school with a surprised look on his face.
"Who knows!" the little Professor Flitwick said sharply.
And just over the castle, Snape also came out, and Dumbledore walking beside him.Maca followed the two of them, looking like they were coming together to watch the fun.
However, in the surprised eyes of several professors, Maca came to the forefront.
"Who is in charge this time?" He looked around for a week and said calmly, "I am Maca McLean."
"I am." An Auror came out, looking at him hesitantly, "Then... call out the wand first!"
Maca nodded, drew the wand from his cuff and handed it out.
"...Please follow us. Regarding the Hogsmeade-related case, you need to cooperate with the investigation-you should have received the notification document from the Ministry of Magic?" After the Auror confirmed the file, Carefully put away Maca's wand, and then stretched out his hand, "Please."
After Maca turned his head and looked at each other with Dumbledore, he walked over to the Auror without resisting.
"This... my God! What happened to this?" At this moment, Professor Sprout suddenly ran over and asked aloud, "What exactly did McLean do? Why--"
But Dumbledore reached out and stopped her.
"Pomona, Maca just went to cooperate with the investigation, it's okay." He stared at Maca with piercing eyes for a while before he calmly said to the Auror, "Say hello to me and Fudge!"
The Auror nodded seriously, and left with Maca.
"Albus...what the hell is going on? Why would McLean..." Professor McGonagall couldn't help but ask.
"It's the incident in Hogsmeade," Dumbledore said. "I will follow up. Everyone will go back first!"
He paused, then looked at Willie who was standing by and silently looking outside the school gate and said, "Miss Blois?"
"...Do I need help?" Wei Li turned around and asked blankly.
"I don't think it is necessary for the time being." Dumbledore smiled. "Things are not as complicated as they thought."
Willie nodded, and passed directly by Dumbledore, all the way to the greenhouse.Dumbledore looked at her back with curious eyes, revealing a thoughtful look.
