"your name?"

"Sirius Olain Black"

"The purpose of your coming to Hogwarts"

"Avenge the Potters and kill the traitor. [Read the latest chapter]"

"Who is a traitor?"

"Peter Pettigrew."

Hermione took a step back involuntarily when she heard the words, and accidentally stepped on the hairy tail of Crookshanks, causing the big cat to scream.

"Why do you say that he is a traitor? No matter who you are, you are the secret of the Potters, and you are the traitor." Hermione asked with a trembling voice, what Blake said was even more incredible than her doubts.

"The original decision was that I became the Secret Keeper, but at the last minute the Secret Keeper changed to Peter Pettigrew. This is my suggestion to the Potters. I thought it was the most perfect plan... It was a trick... Voldemort would definitely do it. Came after me, but what I didn't expect was that Peter Pettigrew had betrayed the Potters." Still replied blankly, but Hermione saw two rows of tears shed on Blake's face.

She has also drunk Veritaserum. Under the action of the medicine, the person taking it will hardly be resistant to the questioner and will not show any emotions, but Black still has such a strong mood swing.

Hermione didn't expect that one of her little tricks of delaying time actually worked, and the cruel "criminal" actually drank her potion without hesitation.

But what surprised her even more was the "truth" Black said under the effect of Veritaserum.

"Then what was the real situation on the street at that time? Since you are innocent, why didn't you avenge in Azkaban? You can ask Principal Dumbledore. After the fall of the mysterious man, even some Death Eaters You have washed yourself out, and even now you are still at large, why have you been locked in for twelve years?" Hermione continued to ask, she needed more information to determine the authenticity.

"At that time, I forced Peter Pettigrew into a dead end, and he yelled all over the street. He said that I betrayed James and Lily. Then, before I could curse him, he used to hide The wand behind him blew up the entire street, killing everyone within twenty feet of him, and then fled into the gutter with other mice... As for Azkaban, I indirectly killed Potter. Couple, this may be another punishment for me,"

Hermione didn’t know what to say now. If Black hadn’t lied, from her point of view, this approach would be too stupid. Use other people’s faults to punish herself. The real murderer gets away with it. Such atonement really makes sense. ?

She was thinking if what Sirius said was true, maybe Harry would not have been so painful as a child.

Maybe he couldn't blame him all, Hermione searched the memory in her mind-Sirius Black was cast into Azkaban without being tried.

"Then why were you locked up in a cage before?" Hermione shook her head and told herself not to think about the mess. Now her purpose is no longer to delay time, but to get more from Black. message.

"I..." Just about to answer, Black's eyes gradually cleared. He found that his consciousness had recovered. When he answered before, he was like an outsider. He couldn't imagine that one day he could explain in such a plain tone. The story of the year.

"It's a terrible potion. I heard that the Ministry of Magic also wanted to use this drug to try me, but it is said that the differences of opinion are too great, and I still can't stop it. I actually used it in this situation today." Black's expression looked surprised. , The eye sockets are more deeply recessed, looking very haggard.

"Harry's friend, can you trust me now?" Black continued.

In Hermione's heart, heaven and man are at war, constantly analyzing the authenticity of Black's words from all aspects.

She has personally tested the true effect of Veritaserum.

Logically speaking, if he really wants to target Harry, there is absolutely no need to do so to gain his own trust. By stunned and held hostage, he can achieve his goal.

Plus Crookshanks spared no effort to help him.

And some other examples, such as Hermione while she took advantage of the time when she stole the "Powerful Potion", she also read many books about Animagus, this is a very advanced spell, to maintain it must be extremely With high concentration, Peter Pettigrew said that he can only maintain the form of a mouse when he loses his memory, which is also untenable. If he really loses the ability to cast spells, he should be back to his original form at any time.

And her own intuition, deep down in her heart, she is also willing to believe in this thin and thin man with a shaggy beard and a dishevelled hair, because in Black’s body, Hermin has received sincerity, which is especially compared with the contrived feeling in front of Peter Pettigrew. strong.

"Not yet complete." Hermione shook her head and said, "but now I am willing to verify the truth with you." Having said that, Hermione was actually convinced.

"I can confront the traitor, but he won't dare. He is now intoxicated in his heroic role." Blake answered Hermione and walked to Malfoy's desk and started rummaging.

"Mr. Black." Hermione said politely, "We don't have time now, and I still have a question. Why did you appear in that cage for the unfinished question?" If Black says something wrong Xu, how do you explain this iron cage?

"What a nostalgic feeling." At the table, Blake touched a blank old parchment with his slender palm, his eyes full of memories, and he didn't seem to answer.

"Mr. Black, please answer my question. Even if there is no Veritaserum, this question is very important. This may be a conspiracy." Hermione repeated seriously.

"Well, it is indeed a shame to admit that I was planted in the hands of a student and a dumb gun." Blake shrugged, only half-concealed the answer to the question, and at the same time showed a hideous smile.

"I found his place." Black pointed to the small ink dot on the map of the point of life and said, moving his body as he spoke, shaking with excitement in his hands, as if he was going to rush out of this room at any time. Go and confront Peter Pettigrew.

Of course, it is more likely to directly take revenge, and use a green light to directly end the traitor's life.

"Do you want to rush directly like this? Do you know how many Aurors there are now around the school? I don't know whether the thing that looks like a map in your hand is real and effective, but whether it is true or not, you are rushing so directly now Going out will never achieve your goal. The best way for us now is to go to Professor Dumbledore, and he will take care of all of this." Hermione said calmly, spreading her arms, and firmly stopped Sirius. In front of him, but after she had said these words, her face suddenly became ugly, because Professor Dumbledore had been away from school for quite some time.

The only teacher she can fully trust is not in Hogwarts now!
