"How is that possible?" "Impossible!" Percy and Hermione said at the same time.

"Didn't you mean Peter?? Has Peddiru been killed by Sirius Black?" Hermione said.

"That's why he needs to be a rat to hide himself, because theoretically he's dead. And after Sirius broke into the school, I checked the old newspapers about it, and the old newspapers reported that Sirius was put in prison without trial, which means that what happened at the time is not 100% certain. ”

"It's just ......," Hermione looked annoyed. "Even the most heinous criminals must be tried before they are executed, how can the wizarding world do this?"

"There's something else going on. Percy said with some embarrassment. "Because the mystery man had just been defeated at that time, everyone's emotions needed to be released, and sometimes the procedure may not be so strict. Not to mention that my father said that Sirius didn't ask for an interrogation at all after he was arrested, so he was sent straight to prison at the time. ”

"I really don't know what to say. Hermione muttered, sitting there with her hands folded over her chest and leaning back against the couch.

Percy turned to Ryan at this time: "These two points alone can't be sure that Spotted is Peter, do you have any other evidence?"

"Of course, Spotted is missing a toe. And the largest piece of Peter's remains that people found after Peter's death was his finger. ”

Percy seemed somewhat persuaded by Ryan, who saw the situation and struck while the iron was hot and said, "Besides, did you notice that Spotted started to get anxious at the same time as Sirius escaped from prison. ”

"It seems like it's true. Percy said after a moment's recollection. "So what do we do now?, should we report it to the professor immediately?"

"Personally, I suggest that you better send your father an owl and ask him to come to school. After all, your father is a member of the Ministry of Magic, and I think it might be bad for your father to let a suspicious person stay in your house for a long time, so you'd better discuss it. ”

"Yes, you're right. Percy reacted and shook Ryan's hand tightly, "I shouldn't have overlooked this, I'm going to write to my father right now." ”

When Percy was gone, Hermione asked a little strangely, "Since we've determined that there is something wrong with the mouse, why don't we just send the suspicious mouse to the professor?"

"On the one hand, the Weasleys are good people, and if we send that rat, it would be easy for them to get into some trouble, like I said earlier that it's not a good thing to keep a suspicious person. On the other hand, I guess there were a lot of people who handled this case back then, and the Weasleys were one of the 28 pure-blood families. These people involved in the back then should be able to settle down, but if it is replaced, it is difficult for us to say. ”

"You have a point. Hermione nodded slightly. "Not to mention that we can leave Percy a favor in this way, after all, our dreams need more than enough people to support us, and an honor student like Percy, who is destined to enter the Ministry of Magic, can naturally help us to be the best. ”

Speaking of which, Hermione glanced at Ryan, "Do you think my mind is a little utilitarian?"

"No, you've just grown up. Ryan shook his head and said.

"Oh, it's that old fatherly tone again. Hermione jokingly patted Ryan on the back.

After a while of joking, the two of them went into study mode again, and for the rest of the day, Ryan was still the same as usual, the only difference was that three tranquilizers were added to the cage before going to bed to prevent Peter from escaping at night.

The next morning, when Ryan got up and was about to go to breakfast, he saw Percy come up to him and whisper to him, "Ryan, everyone is waiting in the headmaster's office now. ”

Ryan nodded and went upstairs to get the cage, and he didn't have to hide it anymore. While Peter was still sleeping there under the influence of the tranquilizer spell, he directly poked his wand into the cage and released the stun spell against Peter.

After packing up his belongings from the cage, Ryan went downstairs and went with Percy to the principal's office. On the way, Ryan said to Percy, "By the way, after a while of going in, you will say that these suspicions are mainly discovered by you, and try not to mention me as much as possible." ”

"Why, you found out about this. Percy said with some confusion.

"On the one hand, I have a good relationship with your two twin brothers, and I can feel that your family is a good person. I don't want your father to be implicated in this, and I don't think your father would have to take much responsibility if you made a contribution. After saying that, Ryan smiled at Percy, and looked at Percy's somewhat uneasy look, and Ryan comforted.

"Also, if Spotted is really Peter, it could involve a whole bunch of Ministry of Magic officials who were involved in the Sirius Trials, you must know that I am a hemp wizard, and I can't afford to offend so many people in one go. ”

Percy stopped at this time and looked at Ryan very seriously and said, "Thank you! ”

After that, the two of them walked silently through the corridor without portraits to the door of the principal's office.

"Cockroach pile. After the command was pronounced, the stone staircase slowly rotated upward. Ryan was in Professor Dumbledore's office again.

It's just that this time it's different from the last time I came with a notebook, and there are a lot of people in the office. In addition to Professor Dumbledore and the Weasleys, the office was filled with Professor Lupin, Professor Snape, Professor McGonagall, and a broad, square-jawed man he didn't recognize. Middle-aged witch with short gray hair and a pair of monocles.

"My father said he would hire a Ministry of Magic official as a witness, I didn't expect him to bring in the Director of Law Enforcement. Percy whispered to the side.

Amelia?? Bones, after listening to Percy's introduction, Ryan finally knew who this unknown person was. It's reasonable to be able to invite this one, after all, Amelia?? Bones' brother Edgar?? Bones was one of the founders of the Order of the Phoenix, and his entire family was murdered by Voldemort. With such a relationship, it would not be too difficult to deal with the case related to Voldemort back then.

"Well, two young men, can you tell me why you think this mouse is Peter, who is dead?? Pedirus?" Dumbledore said very solemnly, sitting behind his desk.

"When Ron gave me the rat to help him treat it, I was curious and asked how old was it, but Ron couldn't tell him, except that he got it from Percy. Later, yesterday when I had the opportunity to ask Percy, he told me that the rat had been in his house for twelve years. I was a little surprised when I said that this rat theoretically only had a lifespan of about three years. I didn't know much about the rest until this morning he told me to come here with a cage. Ryan spoke the agreed lines first.

Percy then went over all the questions she had raised yesterday. After listening to Percy's words, Headmaster Dumbledore motioned for Professor Lupin and Professor McGonagall to come forward and examine the spots in the cage.
