In the Headmaster's office at Hogwarts, a short, middle-aged man stood blankly in the center of the office, surrounded by a group of people.

"Okay Peter, tell me what really happened?" said Director Burns, asking her question.

Peter took a deep breath with a shudder, and spoke in an emotionless, flat tone.

"Because Sirius gave me the identity of the Potters' secret keeper for safety reasons, and he claimed to be the secret to the outside world to lure away the pursuers. I found the Dark Lord as soon as I became a Secret Keeper and told him the secret about the Potter family, which I could have received as much reward as I had never done before, but the Dark Lord missed. Blake has been hunting me down since he learned that I had betrayed the Potters. ”

Hearing this, Lupin looked a little excited, and gave the impression that he was going to rush up and beat Peter. But Mr. Weasley, who was next to him, grabbed him. Ryan turned his gaze to Professor Snape, who looked calm, but his clenched fists and slightly trembling body were indicative of the anger he was feeling inside.

Peter took another deep breath and continued in a flat voice.

"I couldn't escape when I was chased down a Muggle street, so I had to blow up half a street and turn into a rat to escape down the blown sewers, and I worked as a pet in a wizarding family to this day. ”

Hearing this, Mr. Weasley covered his face in annoyance, "Oh my God, I really thought it was just a mouse when I picked him up in the garden, and I swore I would never bring this mess home again." Mrs. Weasley, who was next to her, patted him on the back and comforted him.

"Since you've taken refuge with the mysterious man, why haven't you hurt Harry in the same house all these years?" said Director Bones, who had fallen silent and began to listen.

"Because the Dark Lord heard that the situation was terrible after he failed to kill Harry that day, I will also put myself in it if I hurt Harry at this time. So I can only stay quietly in a wizard's family to listen to the information, and I will only sacrifice Harry to the Dark Lord when I am sure that the Dark Lord is truly back, after all, my mistakes have made many Death Eaters hold a grudge against me, and I must make enough achievements to save myself in front of the Dark Lord. ”

"Why did you betray Potter and Lily? They treat you as friends. At this point, Lupin finally couldn't help asking. Bones only frowned at this interruption of her interrogation, and said nothing.

"Friend, are you really a friend to me?" Peter's tone fluctuated at this time, which seemed to stimulate him a lot, "Potter and Black both come from noble pure-blood families, and you studied well in school and were prefects. I'm the only one who's nothing, and I'm like a little henchman behind you. You say I'm too timid at every turn, even if I try very hard to integrate into the small group, but you have been ignoring me, no matter what I say, you will just ignore it. ”

"But—but that's not a reason for you to cost the Potters their lives. Lupin said with some confusion.

"Why not? After graduation, you didn't ask me and the Dark Lord to fight, and the Dark Lord arrived in the first battle, and with a wave of his hand, two Aurors fell. Thankfully, the Dark Lord didn't chase us anymore and you looked excited after the battle, but I was really scared. I really didn't want to feel that dying feeling again, so I had to find a way to live. ”

"Then you choose to be a lackey of the mystery man?" asked Director Bones very seriously at this time.

"Then what else can I do, I just want to live, I don't want to die. But Potter and the others have been pulling me to fight on the front line with the Dark Lord. Several times the Dark Lord himself has appeared in person, and the people on our side have suffered heavy casualties, and the well-trained Aurors have been vulnerable at the hands of the Dark Lord. So, after two or three years of struggle, I found the Dark Lord and begged him not to kill me. ”

"What did you do after you took refuge with the mysterious man?" Amelia?? Bones asked.

"I have revealed a lot of valuable information in the year that I have joined the Dark Lord, and he has praised me. At this, a twisted smile appeared on Peter's face. "Finally, when I told the Dark Lord about the Potters' hideout, he told me that there was a reward like never before. ”

"You've killed so many people for that. Lupin yelled a little out of control.

"There is nothing to be gained in rejecting the Dark Lord, but by obeying him, I gain more power than ever before. For example, the spell that blew up half a street, I just told him a few names and he gave it to me. ”

"Don't you know that the fight against the worst demon of all time is to save innocent lives, Peter! Lupin seemed to have calmed down a little, and he spoke to Peter in a hoarse voice.

"You don't understand!" Peter Pettigrew regained his calm tone, "He's going to kill me, Lupin! Not to mention that he gives me strength. ”

"Okay, now the facts have been asked. Director Bones reached out to stop Lupin, who was still going to say something. "I know you used to be friends, but now we have important things to do. ”

With that, she took the record from Percy's hand, looked at it, and signed her name at the end.

"You're Percy, aren't you, this transcript is well written. Hearing Bones' praise, Percy smiled a little excitedly and nodded violently, almost throwing off his glasses.

However, Bones only said a polite remark, and then said to Professor Dumbledore, "Mr. Headmaster, the situation is clear now. Peter had committed all the previous crimes, but he had framed Sirius. I would like to ask you to come with me to the Ministry of Magic to testify to the rehabilitation of this case. ”

"Of course, of course. I am glad to see that an innocent man will be freed from the notoriety that has been placed on him. With that, Dumbledore stood up. "I think we can use the fireplace in the office to get there. ”

Professor Dumbledore and Director Bones then went to the Ministry of Magic with Peter, who was tied up sturdily. Before leaving, he said to Ryan and Percy, "Thank you for your contribution to this matter, but this matter will not be made public until the Ministry of Magic has discussed it, so please keep it a secret for the time being." ”

Both Ryan and Percy nodded in agreement, and Dumbledore left with a burst of green flames. Everyone also left the office separately.

When Ryan met the Weasley family of three at the door, Arthur Weasley took the initiative to reach out and shake Ryan's hand and thank him: "Thank you so much this time, I heard Percy say that you helped this time, and our family owes you a favor." ”

"No thanks, after all, I am friends with your sons, and friends should help each other. Ryan said modestly.
