Chapter 146: Peter's Lies
Despite Peter Pettigrew's words, Evan wasn't at all happy to see him.
In his plan, he and Peter Pettigrew would meet in a few hours, when his side would be victorious, with Sirius Black, Harry, Hermione, and the others present, rather than meeting Peter alone.
Evan quickly thought that in this situation, he might be able to risk defeating Peter, but he couldn't stop him from escaping.
In Peteranimagus form, it would be a terrible thing to run away from.
He's going to talk to the other person, looking for hands-on opportunities or trying to stall as much as possible. Harry and Hermione knew that they were in Professor Lupin's office, and as long as they didn't go back, they would definitely bring Black with them when Sirius Black entered the castle.
In this way, when both sides were not sure of defeating each other and wanted to communicate, a strange scene suddenly appeared in Professor Lupin's office: two people who were obviously extremely wary of each other suddenly began to talk happily, and the originally tense atmosphere seemed to become relaxed.
But in fact, both of them secretly held their respective wands tightly, and their spirits were highly concentrated, without the slightest relaxation.
"Peter Pettigrew?!" Evan said in a surprised voice, "I've heard of you, you were the wizard who was killed by Sirius Black twelve years ago?!"
"That's right, it's me!" Seeing that Evan knew about this, Peter Pettigrew seemed very satisfied, which could save himself a lot of trouble, and with that weird smile on his lips, he asked sharply, "Are you Evan Mason, dear child?"
Evan nodded briefly, motioning for the other party to continue.
"You know, Aven!" Peter Pettigrew glanced at the wand in Aven's hand and quickly moved elsewhere, as if he hadn't noticed Aven's hostility towards him, and continued, "Blake betrayed Harry's parents, Jaime and Lily, and he wanted to kill me, but he didn't succeed, and I ran away at the last minute. ”
"But everyone said you were killed," Evan said slowly.
"I didn't die, I just hid. Peter Pettigrew's voice trembled a little, and he looked at Evan with tears in his eyes, "I had to do this, after all, I caught Blake, I sent him to Azkaban with my own hands, and that madman must have hated me so much." ”
"Hide?!" Evan looked at the other party in surprise, "Since Blake has been caught, why are you hiding, even for twelve years?!"
"You don't understand, my dear child!" Peter Pettigrew's voice was sharper than before, "I have to hide, Blake has taken refuge with the man who can't even mention his name, he has some tricks, he has evil spells that we can only dream of, those spells are very evil, and powerful, I am no match for him!"
"Evil powerful spells?!" Evan squinted, "You mean Voldemort"
"Don't mention that name!" Peter Pettigrew, pale, as if Evan had whipped him, wiped the sweat from his face with his sleeve, and continued, "Anyway, the man who can't even mention his name has given Blake a lot of evil spells, which is why he was able to escape from Azkaban. ”
"Well, since you're hiding, why are you suddenly in the castle now?" said Aven flatly.
"I'm here to save you!" Peter Pettigrew pulled out his wand hidden behind him, his face was full of flattering smiles, looking very distorted and ugly, "We all know that Black escaped to kill Harry, he wants to avenge the man who didn't even mention his name, I can't let his plot succeed, I have to stop him, even if it takes a big risk, I will not hesitate to do it!" Because I was the best friend of Harry's parents, and they had entrusted that child to me before that tragic thing happened."
Seeing Peter Pettigrew's appearance, Evan suddenly felt a little sick.
Twelve years ago, he betrayed his friends James and Lily to Voldemort, made Harry an orphan, framed Sirius Black and imprisoned him in Azkaban for twelve years, and just yesterday, he controlled Ron to expose Professor Lupin's werewolf identity and framed Professor Lupin for attacking his students.
Now, he wanted to continue to deceive himself and use Harry to slander Sirius Black once again.
How shameless can a person say such a thing?!
Evan took a deep breath and resisted the urge to beat Peter Pettigrew. He was filled with anger deep down, he really felt unworthy of Harry's parents, Sirius Black, Professor Lupin, and all the people he had betrayed, who had clearly regarded Peter Pettigrew as friends at Hogwarts.
But this man has only profit in his eyes, he betrayed them, and he is the culprit of their tragic fate.
Peter Pettigrew upset Evan by his muttering, his right hand clutching his wand tightly, and he said in a stiff tone, "So, you're really well-intentioned!"
"Trust me, Aven! I was the one who captured Blake and imprisoned him in Azkaban!" Peter Pettigrew continued, "I'm here to save you now, you just need to put it"
"You haven't told me how you got into the castle?" Evan interrupted, "Hogwarts is surrounded by strong protective magic, and no one can break in. ”
"It's not a difficult problem for me, you know" Peter Pettigrew's gaze once again looked at the wand that was firmly in Aven's hand, and he hesitated, "I'm an Animagus!"
"Animagus?!"
"It's a spell that can make wizards transform into animals!" Peter Pettigrew lowered his voice, as if not wanting anyone else to hear what he was about to say, "My Animagus form is a mouse, Ron's pet spot. I have been by your side all these years, protecting you day and night. ”
"Protect us day and night, as a mouse?!" Evan sneered, he didn't know what a pet mouse could do other than eat, he continued disdainfully, "So, you're Spotted?!It's surprising that a normal person would be willing to spend twelve years making a mouse." ”
"I had to do this, I had already guessed that Blake was going to get out, and I had to protect you. Peter Pettigrew licked his lips, looked at the map in Aven's hand with burning eyes, and said eagerly, "Trust me, kid! Remember, the other day, you even made a rat tonic for me. ”
Evan nodded, glad he did.
If it weren't for the rat tonic with the tracking potion, he would probably have been a corpse by now. (To be continued.) )
