Ravenclaw's Blue Gem

You have to find Hermione quickly.Zoe panicked about this unusual situation. Regardless of whether he hit Professor Lupin’s things or not, she just wanted to hurry to where Hermione was, and then she slipped and stepped on something unknown, screaming The body fell backwards suddenly.

*****

As for Harry, a grievance and hatred that had been entangled for more than ten years finally came to an end for a short while.They followed Shaban and Crookshanks to the beating willow, and then they met Black and Lupin, and listened to them talking about old things, talking about the werewolves, the mischievous quartet and Animagus, and the shackles. real identity.Harry stopped Blake's revenge, even if his hatred for Peter was not much less than Blake, let alone the hatred in his heart when he thought Blake was the person who broke the contract.But when he watched his father's three old friends gather together, he felt that Blake shouldn't do it.

He is already very tired, don't let this person who is almost filled with guilt and hatred carry more."Give him to Azkaban, to the dementor, don't kill him, don't use your hands." He said wearily, as if everything were a funny and ridiculous drama, but Choking in my throat, I can't laugh anything.

What can he say?His parents and his best friend believed in the wrong person, and handed over the responsibility of the secret to a bastard who had secretly betrayed them and went to Voldemort's camp, someone who was also their good friend before... Could it be that they can only be blamed for the death of their parents?Because they didn't know people, could they only die tragically under Voldemort?

"What?! This scumbag killed your family, Harry! Let me kill him, he killed James and Lily!" Black and Peter reacted in opposite directions, but they both opened their eyes in disbelief. "Thank you, thank you for showing kindness to me, good boy... I am willing to go to Azkaban, as long as you don't let them kill me here..."

The little clown witch crawled under Harry’s robe and pulled his robe. His little eyes were teary, but Harry only felt disgusted. He pulled the robe out of Peter’s hand. Actually, I really want to kill you..." His voice was trembling, Peter trembling, "But this thing shouldn’t dirty Black’s hands. People like you, guys like you... Azkaban rot, even my father wouldn't want his best friend to kill..." He clenched his fist and gritted his teeth.

"Peter, if you dare to get closer to Harry, I'll kill you, and I will do it!" Blake kicked Peter in the abdomen and watched him curl up in a circle, but he was already very weak. , There is no way to beat the enemy he has been tracking down.The long-term imprisonment of Azkaban has already ruined his health, not to mention that he has to keep hiding during this period. "You dirty mouse in the sewer, you really want to exchange the Potter family for your glory. Rich, stinky traitor..."

Lupin grabbed Black to stop the panting Black from continuing to beat Peter: "Well, Sirius, Harry is the only person who is qualified to decide the punishment of Pettigrew, not us, old friend." Although his face was also worn. Angry, but at least able to speak rationally, "Let's just send him to Azkaban as Harry said. This is not a redemption for him, is it Little Dwarf?" He said in a gentle tone. As if they were still friends.

Blake also smiled, showing a mouthful of yellow teeth. His thin cheeks made this smile particularly gloomy: "Yes, I didn't hear the Death Eaters who were locked in in Azkaban curse you less, Peter. Because With your information, the Dark Lord will catch the Potters, because his future enemy comes from that family...but he has lost power. I bet that as long as you go in, you won’t survive a day at all, you will be passed by you. His colleagues are torn apart one by one!" He laughed loudly, with terrible laughter, and Peter shrank even more.

"Let’s not delay here too much, everyone. I suggest that we should hurry back to the castle, first go to Professor Dumbledore, and then find the Minister of Magic. We must let Pettigrew know all the truth about these years. Spit it out and let Black regain his reputation, what do you think, Harry?" He asked softly, and Harry nodded silently.

They first tied up Peter Pettigrew, and Black threatened him again if he dared to transform, he would kill him on the spot.Harry and Hermione helped Ron up. He broke his leg before. None of the wizards in the room were proficient in connecting bones. However, Professor Lupin used two splints and ropes to make emergency treatment. He was ready to let Pang return to the castle. Mrs. Frey will handle it.

When they came out of the screaming hut again following the beating willow, unconsciously or unconsciously, Harry found himself walking side by side with Sirius.He felt that the atmosphere was a little weirdly silent, so he wanted to find something to say.

"My parents, should I think they are stupid?" He said quickly, "They put themselves in danger by trusting the wrong person. Is this all they have to bear?"

"It's not like that, Harry." Black said hurriedly. "I never saw anyone as brave and kind as your parents. They have always been the pride in everyone's hearts. Endings like this are all because of my mistakes. Trusted Peter so that they had an accident. I still can’t forget that I saw the bodies of James and Lily when I rushed to your house..." He squeezed a terrible whimper from his throat, "This is all mine. Caused by a mistake."

"But you are also forced to bear a crime that does not belong to you." Harry comforted him, "When the Ministry of Magic takes the Dwarf away, you will be able to restore your reputation."

Hearing these words, Blake seemed to be immersed in his thoughts, and finally he spoke: "Harry," his voice was hoarse, "I don't know if you know that your parents let me be your godfather. "He strained his face, trying to look forward instead of looking in Harry’s direction, but his mouth continued, "If I regain my reputation, I might be your guardian, I mean... you Are you willing to go to a new environment? For example, live with me... Of course! If you don't want to live with a former murderer, I fully understand..."

Harry interrupted him. When he heard the news, the haze on his face suddenly disappeared. Harry exaggerated and smiled in surprise: "You are joking, of course I do! When do you think I should start from Desi Is the Li family moved out?"

Chapter 68 The Night of Truth (3)

They came out from under the beating willow, because Crookshanks held down the crusting of the beating willow, the ferocious plant remained quietly obediently.The six people quickly came out of the hole. The sky was gray. Only the light source of the castle illuminates the way forward, but no one cared about it. They hurried on the road. Lupin and Ron each divided an arm to handcuff. Staying at Pettigrew, Lupin looked around alertly, his wand was firmly pinched in his hand. Although Blake didn’t have a wand in his hand, his hateful eyes stared at Pettigrew’s back as if he wanted Just with his eyes, he pierced a big hole in the wizard's back.

They passed through the woodland. It was late at night. Because of Dumbledore's stern warning, there was no one around the castle, and no one would be willing to risk provoke dementors to deliberately run around outside the castle.The surroundings are quiet, and there are no insects.Harry's heart was also unprecedentedly calm, and he was even a little airy: Even though today's experience is equally heavy, he is likely to move out to live with his godfather!Farewell to the Dursleys, what a fatal temptation this is!

"Be careful, Peter." Lupin's advice was not because he was worried that Dwarf Star's stumbling walk would cause him to fall. "There is only one chance, and so is forgiveness. If you do something that shouldn't be done, I will immediately Attack you."

Pettigrew Peter’s face was pale, it was a desperate whiteness. When he watched him getting closer and closer to the castle, his body was shaking, and Ron, who was walking with a sullen face on his right (because of his injuries) He limped because of his leg) and glanced at him angrily, and then put aside in disgust. He has always been like this since he heard that the pet, which he has always maintained, is actually the deformation of a small dwarf. The expression as if eating bird poop.

"Lupin, old buddy...I..." Peter wanted to ask for mercy, but he was slammed behind him, so powerful that Ron staggered a few steps.Black said viciously: "Shut up! You can keep walking quietly and don't pollute the air of my alma mater! Or do you want to have another meal?"

Little Dwarf shut up, but sweat kept slipping from the top of the bald head. He choked and dropped tears that were not true or false. He looked very pitiful, but no one in the room would do anything to him. sympathy.

Finally, when they stepped on the stone steps of the castle, everyone was relieved. As long as they entered the castle, they would have accomplished more than half of their purpose.Little dwarf collapsed and his eyes were dead gray. He knew that unless a miracle happened, he would be completely finished this time.

**********

"Dumbledore, I heard that you caught the prisoner! Great! So where is Sirius Black..." Fudge broke out of the fireplace with sweat, his expression on his face was ecstatic.Behind him was a wizard dressed as an official of the Ministry of Magic-they usually wear black formal robes, they like to wear various ties and a big hat-"I said that my decision must be correct. Black is hiding near Hogwarts! Let us catch him, and then we can deliver him directly to the Dementor..."

He was a little dizzy, so that he started talking non-stop without seeing the people in the room clearly, but when he finally was willing to see his surroundings clearly, he was directly frightened by Blake, who was standing among several people, to aphasia.Blake has not had time to organize his outfit, which makes him not only look sloppy and sloppy, but also has a fierce spirit of his own, and he has been monitoring the actions of the little dwarf with murderous intent (this little wizard Sitting on a chair, but his butt and the chair are spelled and cannot be separated), Fudge's dumbfoundedness is understandable.

"Oh my God, Sirius Black! Why didn't you tie him up, how can you let him stand here swaying?!" Fudge was about to fall off his hat and couldn't take care of it.

"Mr. Fudge, Black is innocent!" Harry shouted.

Fudge only noticed Harry on the side. All his vigilance and attention had been taken away by Black.Fudge's face changed drastically: "Harry! Get out of him, Blake is a murderer! He betrayed..." He and his men pulled out their wands, their faces turned pale, apparently unexpected when they faced Sirius. The other party can move freely.

"He didn't, everything was done by Peter Pettigrew!" Fudge's expression became even more weird. "Child, what's the problem with you? I don't ask how you know what happened in the past, but you are I was deceived. Pettigrew is a hero. He was blown up by Black to the size of a toe. Black not only killed your parents, but also killed a street of Muggles! Pettigrew is also a first-class Sir Merlin The recipient of the medal..."

Black frowned and wanted to say something, but from his impatient expression it must not be a nice sentence.At this moment, Dumbledore coughed slightly, stopped Harry, who was still thinking about arguing, and started to introduce it easily.

"Don’t jump to conclusions so quickly, Connelly. I think all of us have been deceived—this is Sirius Black, Harry’s godfather; this is Cornelius Fudge, the current Minister of Magic . I think you’ve all met too, so there’s no need to say anything, right?"

Black hummed loudly from his nose, but nodded at Fudge, his voice hoarse: "Thank you for the newspaper at the time, Minister." If it weren't for seeing the streaks on Ron's shoulder in the Daily Prophet , He would not know that Peter was still alive in this world, and the reason why he was willing to stay in Azkaban at the time was actually for self-punishment, because it was his fault that caused the Potters to die.In his mind, it was no different from committing suicide by himself.

"Dumbledore, I need an explanation." Fudge will try to exercise restraint only because of his trust in Dumbledore, otherwise he will probably attack immediately, even if his dueling strength has been lost on the desk day after day. It's gone.

"Of course, Connelly. You have to take the real murderer in the end." Dumbledore shrugged when the five of them (Ron had already limped to the infirmary) came to his office. After listening to what they said, he quickly arranged a meeting with Fudge, "I think I have to let you see this person first." He walked away from where he was originally standing, revealing the little dwarf star behind him.Fudge first looked at the short bald wizard in confusion, and then compared this mouse-like face with the one in his memory.

"You, you are Peter?!" Even though he only remembers the portrait of Dwarf Star twelve years ago, the face of this short and chubby boy has not changed much, "You should be dead. Fudge opened his eyes in shock. As the Minister of Magic, he also served as the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Magic and Disaster who visited the disaster site twelve years ago. He has a deep understanding of this matter, and he doesn’t know the impression of Dwarf Star. Profound, but still not forgotten.

"Are you satisfied with this explanation, Connelly?" Dumbledore asked politely. "At least listen to what the parties say?"

He moved two stools with his wand to two guests of the Ministry of Magic.Fudge sat down blankly, looked at Black for a while, Peter again, and Harry finally."To be honest, I am in a mess right now." He said with a wry smile.

"We all understand..."

"Quick, quick! No matter who it is, throw Peter into Azkaban!" Black roared, and Lupin pulled him aside to prevent him from jumping on, "I've been waiting for this scene for too long! Lupin's face was pale: "I know, Sirius, but you have to let him speak for himself."

"Forgive and forgive me... My respected Minister, please be reasonable, I confess, I have repented..." Little Dwarf desperately put his head on his thigh, because his ass couldn't get rid of the chair. Coming out, it made him look like a trembling ball, "I had nowhere to go, Minister, I asked for justice, I was controlled..."

"Peter, I remind you that Azkaban is the greatest forgiveness for you based on the bad things you have done." Lupin said softly, "This is also for the friends who have been betrayed by you in the past and those innocents who were involved. Muggles."

"Come on! In front of these big people: Do you admit that you betrayed James and Lily, as the secret of the loyal curse, but told Voldemort about their hiding place?!" Blake roared, Fudge heard that he couldn't. The name he spoke out turned his face into white paper.

"And the Muggles in that street, you killed a street in it! You cowardly selfish fellow!"

Dwarf's body was shaking like a sieve, his sweat and tears kept falling down, he gritted his teeth and finally stopped defending himself, let alone when he saw Fudge's eyes, he knew he didn't Retreat.

His body straightened for an instant, and finally softened like noodles again: "Yes, yes...I admit that I did everything." He lowered his head in frustration and buried his face in two Between the palms.

Chapter 69 The Night of Truth (4)

"Uh, okay, Sirius Black... Mr.," Fudge shook hands with Black slowly. He still shows a trance attitude. In less than half an hour, he must accept the facts he once believed firmly. The chaos that was overturned.Not to mention that he must also consider the follow-up of a series of incidents, "We will hand over the real murderer Peter Pettigrew to the Dementor, throw him into Azkaban, and accept the punishment he deserves. At the same time, we A clarification notice will soon be published by the official to fully explain the whole story. Of course (he glanced at Harry), due to the privacy protection of the parties and some deceased persons, we will make a selective explanation of the incident as appropriate. ——But the Ministry of Magic and I assure you that you will be restored to your reputation as a member of an ancient family." Although he had a hospitable and sincere smile on his face, he felt a faint pain in his stomach.

Once the clarification is published this time, the majesty of the Ministry of Magic will be quite hit. It is important to know that the Merlin Medal of the First Class awarded to Pettigrew’s family, even if it was not awarded by the Ministry of Magic, was the result of the decision to issue the Merlin Order. Considerable impact.This was also in order to calm down the panic and resentment caused by the vicious-event of killing a street Muggle as soon as possible, but now the truth is hitting the face of the Ministry of Magic because it was a mistake.

However, the reason why Fudge has not completely lost his state is also that the truth of this incident is unknown. The secrets of the Potter family and their friends, especially that they secretly changed the secrets, are not excepted by the few people involved. Everyone knew, everyone was kept in the dark, and it was not the negligence of the Ministry of Magic.This also gave the incident considerable room for change, and public opinion would not condemn the Ministry of Magic one-sidedly. Even though they would definitely be ridiculed and ridiculed by some people for issuing the medal, they would not be able to set off a big storm.That's why Fudge was able to talk and laugh with Black here, even if he looked at Black's face, which was thinner and weaker than since Azkaban, he always felt inexplicably embarrassed.

"Thank you, Minister." Black grinned and smiled with yellow teeth. He had rested for a while, drank something, and looked more energetic than before. "Although I don’t have a good impression of my family, I can It would be great for me now to have a chance to restore my reputation." He glanced at Harry, "not to mention that some ideas finally have a chance to be implemented."

He and Harry exchanged glances and watched the boy laugh happily.

The magic on Dwarf's ass has been cancelled. He was handcuffed by the Ministry of Magic official who Fudge had brought to take away. He looked downcast, as if he had given up his desire to survive.They left Dumbledore's office, standing in the corridor on the third floor and chatting with Black and them briefly.

"Are you okay, Mr. Lupin?" When Fudge was about to shake hands with Lupin, he saw that he was shaking slightly, as if the cold was eroding his body. "You suffered before. Is it hurt? Maybe you need to go to the infirmary?"

"Mr. Minister, I'm fine, it's just a minor problem. I'm a little sick, but I forgot to take the medicine. I'll go directly to Professor Snape later. There should be a little more on his side." Lupin He squeezed out a reluctant smile, perhaps because of the long-term use of the wolf poison potion, he can still restrain the animal sex in his body for the time being, and try to make himself immortal, as long as he has not been directly exposed to the moonlight...

"Professor! Professor Lupin!" At this moment, there was a girl's cry from the other side of the corridor, and everyone turned to look over there. Hermione cried out in surprise: "Zoe! Why are you here?"

Zoe was still a short distance from them, but Lupin was relieved. He had seen the cup in Zoe's hand and knew what she was studying under Snape, because occasionally she would come to his office instead of Snape. , Bring him the medicine.In his thoughts, it must be that the child didn't find him in the office, so he ran around in a hurry.
