Chapter 226: The answer emerges

In the past, as a social successor, Bruce would never have believed in ghosts, but now it's different, because he can encounter ghosts all day long. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

But the problem now is that he sees that it is not a ghost, but a person who has come back from the dead. And this person who "came back from the dead" has a close relationship with what they encountered.

Naturally, Bruce refused to let go of this opportunity. Since you are curious, you should simply use the most direct and effective method and go over and take a look. Anyway, there is a "GPS" of the live map, and he can't run away.

So Bruce put on his clothes and quietly left with his wand and a map of the living spots, because he was desperate to meet the "legendary" Pettigrew, and Bruce even forgot to bring his invisibility cloak.

When he left the dormitory, he received criticism from the fat woman for the nth time, but now Bruce couldn't care about that, and looked at the map and rushed in the direction of Peter Pettigrew.

In a dark hallway, Bruce stopped, and along the way, many sleeping portraits complained to Bruce because of the "fluorescent charm". However, his attention was focused on the map, as he noticed that Peter Pettigrew was right in front of him, and kept approaching him.

Bruce pointed his wand in front of him and waited for Peter Pettigrew to "come to the door". Peter Pettigrew's footprints on the map began to speed up and walked towards him, getting closer and closer.

But the truth is that he didn't see anything at all, indeed, he heard a strange sound, like some animal crawling, but the point is that there is no one.

"Damn, there's something wrong with the map?" Bruce said darkly.

"Could it be...... Is it an invisibility charm? Bruce speculated.

Thinking about it, Bruce didn't hesitate, and waved out a manifestation spell.

"The original form is now!"

The spell flew straight to the other end of the road, but it was still empty, and there was already a portrait threatening Bruce to go to the professor to sue him.

"Shut up!" Bruce said angrily, and then hurriedly looked at the map of the living spot, at this moment Peter Pettigrew had come to him, Bruce used the "Fluorescent Charm" to look ahead, and Peter Pettigrew bypassed him on the map.

Bruce hurriedly followed, but there was still no one, and suddenly ...... A figure appeared.

Bruce was taken aback, there was a mirror on the wall, because of the fluorescent charm, Bruce's appearance in the mirror was really a bit of a ghost movie.

However, Bruce was delayed for some time, and when he looked at the map, Peter Pettigrew had already rounded the corner. Bruce was about to chase after him, but another name appeared on the map - Severus Snape.

"!" Bruce whispered, "The prank is over!" ”

The map vanished, and Bruce said again, "Knox! ”

Knox is the counterspell of the "Fluorescent Curse", and for a moment the entire corridor was plunged into darkness, and Bruce could only rely on his memory to slowly move forward.

It was pitch black around him, and he couldn't walk fast at all, but the next second the light appeared. Of course, along with the light, there is also a "dead face".

"Huh!" Bruce looked at Snape embarrassedly and smiled, "Good evening, Professor Snape!" Thanks for the lighting, but I've found my wand. ”

Snape looked at him with a sneer and said, "Sterling, you think I'm going to believe your nonsense?" What's behind you? Take it out? ”

Bruce looked indifferent and said, "I'll take it out, but please lower your wand, I don't like it when people point at it." ”

"Humph! Is it? Snape said with a sneer, but lowered his wand anyway.

Bruce pulls out the map of the living spots, but by this time it has turned into a piece of parchment.

Snape looked at the map and asked, "What is this?" ”

Bruce said, "Won't you watch? A blank piece of parchment! ”

Snape sneered, "It's funny, I've heard of this situation, I've heard of it, but I don't know if it's going to end the same way." Now turn it on. ”

Bruce had no choice but to open the map of the living spots, and Snape immediately put his wand on it: "Secret revealed!" ”

Now Bruce was trying to hide something, and the map of the living point appeared.

Snape sneered, "What a coincidence! The ending seems to be very similar, only this time it's a shameless ...... for you."

Bruce snapped him off and said, "Professor, I warn you! I'm not a student of Slytherin, and if someone insults me, I'll duel him, even if it's a professor. I've already killed a professor anyway. ”

Snape didn't care at all and said, "Really? If that's the case, then I have to ......"

"Professor!"

At this moment, a voice came from behind, and Snape immediately turned around and pointed his wand behind him, and when he saw the comer, Snape said disdainfully, "Oh! It's Lupin! Going out for a walk in the moonlight? ”

Lupin ignored him and walked over to Bruce and asked, "Bruce, has the wand been found?" ”

Bruce laughed, "I couldn't have found it, but thanks to Professor Snape for the lighting!" ”

Snape suddenly snatched the map from Bruce's hand, looked at Lupin and said, "It's not just wands that I've found, it's this interesting thing." I think you're familiar with it, right? ”

Lupin looked at the map of the living spot and smiled, "Oh, of course familiar!" Because that's what I lent him, now...... It's supposed to be its rightful owner, isn't it? Severus. ”

Snape looked at Lupin coldly and handed over the map of the living spots, Lupin took it and said with a smile: "Thank you!" ”

Snape sneered and turned to walk away quickly, leaving a cold voice in the depths of the hallway: "Gryffindor deducts 20 points!" ”

"Fluorescent flicker!"

Bruce re-illuminated it, spotted Lupin looking at him, and said, "If you need an explanation, I think I can give a reasonable explanation." If you want to believe it! ”

Lupin shook his head helplessly and said, "Even if you explain, you shouldn't be here, let's go!" Come with me, it's bad if you get caught by Filch. He used to do that a lot when I was in school. ”

Lupin led Bruce to his office, and Lupin made it to the couch and said, "Okay! Bruce, now you can explain how you got this thing. But it's best not to use wands as an excuse. ”

Bruce said, "I'm more than willing to explain, but can you, Professor, answer one of my questions after I explain?" It's not an 'equivalent exchange', it's just an inquiry, and I'll answer you if you don't want to. ”

Lupin laughed; "Hehe, is your answer true? I've heard people say that Bruce Sterling is not only a great talent for magic, but also an astonishing talent for making up lies. ”

Bruce laughed, "Really? I didn't even know I had such an evaluation, hehe. But I'm only responsible for explaining, believe it or not...... It's up to you. ”

"Alright! Let me judge and say. Lupin said.

Bruce explained, "I got it from two friends, don't ask me who those two friends are, I can tell you they're also Gryffindor students, but I won't name them." ”

"Really? What kind of thing could be exchanged for such a map? Lupin asked.

Bruce said, "That's the second question, Professor?" ”

Lupin was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Don't forget, Bruce." I just lied to you. ”

Bruce smiled and said, "Okay! It's a wand. ”

"Oh! I almost forgot, you're still an Ollivanders student! Lupin said, "But I don't suggest you exchange this thing?" It is very dangerous for you, and for Harry in particular. ”

Bruce was surprised and asked, "Why?" ”

Lupin said, "If this thing falls into Sirius' hands, he will be able to find Harry easily." ”

The corners of Bruce's mouth rose slightly, and he asked softly, "Are you afraid that Sirius will find Harry, or ...... Someone else? ”

"Huh?" Lupin was stunned, looked at him in surprise, and said, "You...... Merlin's beard! What do you know? ”

"I don't know anything, it's all my guesses, you know I always like to watch messy things," Bruce said. ”

Lupin shook his head in surprise and said, "No, no, this is not something that can be known just by looking. Bruce, you really surprise me. Seriously, you don't look like a student at all. I'm starting to understand why you were able to take out Quirrell and that guy in the Chamber of Secrets, you're really scary as an enemy! ”

Bruce said, "I can't do anything without Harry's help, no, no...... It should be said that this is what we can do together, and ...... Hehe! ”

Bruce smiled and said, "I'd feel honored if the word terrible came out of the mouth of an enemy, but I would only feel bad when it came out of your mouth." ”

"Why?" Lupin asked curiously.

Bruce said, "Because you're my teacher and my friend!" ”

Lupin was stunned for a moment and then smiled, he stood up and said, "Hehe! Well, since we're friends, then I want you to protect Harry. James is my best friend, he's gone, and I don't want another accident with Harry. ”

Bruce laughed, "Harry is also my brother, and we agreed to support each other for the rest of our lives. Who is also trying to hurt him! ”

Lupin nodded and said, "Good! Then I can rest assured that this can be returned to you. But I want you to take care of it. ”

Bruce took the map and said, "Of course. ”

Lupin said, "Go back quickly, or you won't have so much luck if you get caught again." ”

"Thank you for your advice, good night! Professor! Bruce laughed.

Bruce turned to leave, and just as he pushed the door to walk out, Lupin suddenly asked, "Didn't you say there was still a problem?" ”

Bruce stood and turned around, smiling, "Actually, if you don't ask, I probably won't remember." ”

"Huh!" Lupin smiled: "But I'm afraid you will guess it, so I just told you!" ”

"I just need the answer to one question," Bruce said. ”

Lupin said, "Of course! ”

Bruce nodded, closed the door and asked softly, "Who is that person...... Peter Pettigrew, right? ”

Lupin nodded without answering, and Bruce smiled, "Thank you for your answer." Good night professor! ”

Bruce left, he finally understood, everything he couldn't figure out before. It's a mess, but it's actually very simple, because in Bruce's opinion, it's a bloody tragedy, but he didn't know Peter Pettigrew was alive until then. (To be continued.) )
