Chapter 70: The Origin of the Living Point Map
When Blake's story ended, the office fell silent again, but unlike last time, this time everyone in the room was looking at Harry, and he was offline, obviously the amount of information Blake said just now was a bit too much, even an adult is enough to ponder for a week, not to mention that Harry is only twelve years old now, I'm afraid that in addition to being a voice recognition software, these contents are converted from Blake's voice into words and recorded in the brain, and they don't understand the specific meaning at all.

However, Darren listened to Blake talk about his own experience and was full of emotion, this Blake's life really responded to the sentence, "Happiness is hard to lose".
Originally, Blake was born in one of the oldest pure-blood families in the wizarding world, and he is not in decline, and he is the eldest son, as long as he can live to adulthood and not die, he is a proper next generation of family heads. It is conceivable that when he was a child, he must have been clothed and fed, but people had house-elves, or special rules, that is, when he ran away from home, he had an uncle who left him behind, in his own words, "a considerable amount of gold", to ensure that he could have no worries about food and clothing, but then what?
After Voldemort's first rise, he joined the Order of the Phoenix to fight against the Death Eaters, but he mistakenly believed Peter Pettigrew in the Four, killing his good brother Potter and his brothers; went to arrest Peter for revenge, was cheated, didn't count the black cauldron, and ran into Crouch, who was stuffed into Azkaban for twelve years without even having a chance to be judged; finally ran out of Azkaban and explained the truth to Harry, but Lupin would forget to take the medicine he had to take once a month and let Peter go, Dumbledore didn't help him clear his name, and he had to continue to hide until Voldemort rose, and he was the first to hang up in the Order of the Phoenix, dying at the hands of his cousin Bellatrix, a woman who was beaten to the ground by Mrs. Weasley, a housewife, in the final battle......
Thinking of this, Darren felt that Blake really didn't have to fight the Death Eaters to the death, at least cleanly, and maybe the Potters wouldn't die.
After Harry fell silent, Blake's attention turned to Darren and looked at him, "I heard about Hogwarts some time ago, after coming out of Azkaban, I wrote to every professor who participated in the capture of Peter, and Professor Flitwick told me that you gave him the map of the living point, thank you. ”
"Every professor?" Darren subconsciously blurted out, did he still write to Snape?
Hearing Darren's question, Blake was a little stunned, obviously he didn't expect Darren to ask this kind of question, and after a pause, he realized the meaning, and his face couldn't help showing a trace of embarrassment, "Oh, almost." ”
Hearing this answer, Darren knew that Blake must not have written to Snape, and he thought that staying in Azkaban for twelve years would make Blake change, it seems that he is still the second middle school boy back then, no, now he has become the second middle school uncle, he is thirty-two years old, the so-called "the country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change", nothing more than that.
In fact, at this time, what Darren especially wanted to know was, after so many years, what was Blake thinking when he was being cheated by Peter and facing the Aurors captured by the Ministry of Magic?
Because all the people involved said that he was laughing maniacally, what was he laughing at? Laughing at himself for being a fool, betraying the trust of the Potters, killing his godson's parents, and being cheated if he failed to take revenge?
Since it is recognized that Peter is the weakest of their "Marauder Four", and they are all Animagus who are not registered with the Ministry of Magic, then Peter can run away, and there is no reason why Blake can't run away, I am afraid that his brain was already burned with hatred and anger at that time, and he did not think about the serious consequences of his capture.
First of all, all of Peter's crimes were topped by Blake, and Peter became a hero, always at large, and received a Sir Merlin Medal of the First Degree.
In fact, this is not a big deal, the key is that Peter completely disappeared from the sight of the wizarding world, this is the biggest danger, fortunately, Peter's courage is really small, and he did not cause more trouble, if he is replaced by a hardcore Death Eater like Crouch Jr., it is estimated that the grass on Harry's grave is tall, and Peter has lived in the same bedroom with Harry for a long time......
In the end, he sat through the prison and left Harry, who had entrusted his good brother to him, out of the house for more than ten years, just by seeing him so skilled in housework, he knew that it was a difficult time, if there was Black, I am afraid that Harry's treatment would be very different, there is no rule that adult wizards cannot cast magic on Muggles, as long as it is not murderous or unforgivable spells.
Forget it, looking at today's occasion, it is not suitable to ask this kind of question, and Darren estimates that with Blake's character, I am afraid that he has never thought about this, and in Azkaban all these years, it is estimated that he has been thinking about how to settle accounts with Peter.
Thinking of the "living point map" that Blake said just now, I just asked by the way, "It's nothing, I didn't expect so many things to happen, I heard you just say, "Moon Face, Worm Tail, Big Foot and Pointed Fork" are the nicknames of you and three other classmates when you were in school, so if you say it, that map seems to have been made when you were in school at Hogwarts, I don't know if you can ...... it"
Hearing Darren mention the "Living Point Map", even Professor McGonagall showed great interest, for a wizard of her level, she naturally knew how extraordinary the "Living Point Map" was.
And Blake fell into memories again, probably remembering the situation back then, when the four of them made the "Living Point Map", they definitely didn't expect that this map would play such an important role in the future.
Soon, though, Blake began to speak, "You say 'Living Point Map', yes, but it wasn't all made by us, the four of us used to wander around at night, and no Hogwarts students knew the Hogwarts grounds and Hogsmeade Village as well as we did, so we had the idea of drawing a map. ”
"Is it the 'Living Point Map'?"
"Not at first, initially we just wanted to make a map that would show the secret passages and the changes in the buildings in the castle, but in the process of making the map, we had a lot of trouble, I think you, as you know, the changes in the buildings in the castle are random, and unless you can monitor it at all times, any map about Hogwarts Castle is a piece of waste paper."
