When the gleaming oak door opened in front of Lawrence, Dunburydo also stood up from his seat,

"Lawrence, it's so late, what's going on?" Deng Buli asked,

"Peter has escaped, Professor." Lawrence briefly told Dunburydo what was happening in the Gryffindor saloon, spreading out the map on the table.

"Fawkes, please go and ask Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape, and Professor Lupin to come over." Fawkes flashed a burst of sparks and disappeared into thin air, and Dunburydo leaned over to look at the map and asked, "Where is he now?"

"At Hagrid's house." Lawrence pointed to the edge of the map, Dunburydo fell into deep thought, Lawrence looked at the map, the three professors walked into the Chancellor's Tower, they pushed the door in,

"Headmaster." Snape said, looking at the map on the table, then at Lawrence,

"What's going on?" Professor McGonagall asked, and Remus didn't speak, he just stood aside,

"Peter did it again." Deng Bulido said that he told the three professors about the matter,

"Should we go and arrest him now?" Lawrence asked,

"It's night," Dunburidos said lightly, "The Ministry of Magic must be curious as to why the four professors are partying in Hagrid's hut?"

"But, Professor, I don't understand why we didn't just subdue Peter in the first place?" Lawrence asked, "As long as it is proven that Peter is alive, the Ministry of Magic will definitely doubt the truth of the year."

The four professors fell silent, while Remus cautiously cleared her throat,

"Sirius is the last remaining direct descendant of the Black family," Remus grimaced, with an unnatural expression, "his escape has put a lot of pressure on the Ministry."

"To be exact, many countries that are secretly controlled by dark wizards, they privately welcome Blake to go there and re-establish his family, and the old pure-blood family is so welcome," said Dunburido, "They have maintained their family magic for a long time, and many people believe that intermarriage with them will be a guarantee that their descendants will continue to have magic power."

"And although the Black family is in decline, he has a great reputation in the entire wizarding world, and if he does make mistakes, it will be fine, but if it is proven to be wronged, the pressure on the Ministry of Magic in England is enough to make the high-ranking officials led by Fudge lose their status." Remus said,

"To put it simply, as long as we hand over Peter before we find Black," Snape said grimly, "the Ministry of Magic will not give him a chance to confront Black, but will simply choose to let Peter 'disappear' and make him a truly sacrificial hero."

"Then don't hand over Peter?" Lawrence asked, "We can catch him and not hand him over to the Ministry of Magic."

"How's that going to work, Rovander?" Professor McGonagall said, "It is common sense that a wizard who has committed a crime must notify the local Ministry of Magic within a day when he is caught."

"But it should also be flexible, right?" Lawrence couldn't understand, "Is this the only way to let the Ministry of Magic mess around?"

"Actually, there's no way around, Lawrence," Dunburydo said wearily, "I'm the president of the International Federation of Wizards and the chief wizard of the Wizengamot, I'm the guardian of the rules, and the wizards who commit crimes must be handed over to the Ministry of Magic, that's the principle, there's no room for flexibility." (Note 1)

"Actually, the Ministry of Magic didn't make any fundamental mistakes, you can only say that he wasn't perfect," Remus said, looking helpless, "because in reality, if it were as we thought, Peter's sins would be enough to get him punished on the spot."

"So we can only keep an eye on Peter?" Lawrence asked,

"Until we find Sirius," Remus said,

"Your plan matters," said Dunbulido, "if you can't find Sirius. Blake, we'll have to hand Peter over to the Ministry of Magic."

"But I've never seen him," Lawrence said bitterly, "maybe he's noticed something is wrong?"

"I'd like to ask Crook Hill to rock around Hogmound and find Sirius. Blake's words managed to get him on campus." Dunburydo said he asked Crookshan, who was already messing with Fox, "Is that okay?" After all, Lawrence only has time on regular holidays."

"Meow—" Crookshan nodded,

"Do your best, Lawrence." "Maybe he'll show up tomorrow?"

The office fell silent, everyone was on their minds, and Lawrence put the map away, a gesture that sobered Professor McGonagall up,

"It's time for you to go back to your dormitory," Professor McGonagall said, "it's late."

March came and went, Lawrence would go to Hogmound Village every weekend with Snape's help, but he had never met Black, Hogwarts in early April, ushered in the Quidditch match between Ravenclaw and Gryffindor, in the game, Harry played the speed of the rocket crossbow brilliantly, Gryffindor won 230 to 30, which made Luna a little sad,

In the game, Harry successfully cast a Patronus with a rough shape, although it was eventually confirmed that the Dementors were disguised by Malfoy and others, but Slytherin was deducted fifty points for this, which made Harry a lot happier.

"Let's go, Lawrence." George yelled, "Let's go get the supplies for the party."

The three of them walked to the hunchback statue of the one-eyed old woman on the fourth floor, Fred opened the passage and climbed in with George, Crook Hill came out of the corner and jumped up and jumped into the passage, Lawrence saw Snape from a distance, but he just glanced here and turned away, Lawrence also climbed into the passage,

The three of them went to Duke Honey's candy shop and began to buy food for the banquet, thanks to the Traceless Stretching Spell bag made last year, they were able to bring back a lot of candy, which made Duke Honey's clerk busy.

"I think I'll go to Three Broomsticks and buy butterbeer," Lawrence said, "and you can fill the candy here."

"Over to you." Fred waved, Lawrence turned and walked out of the candy store, he walked outside the bar with three brooms, he saw a familiar big black dog rummaging through the trash can, Lawrence slowed down, he didn't expect to see Sirius at this time. Blake, he wasn't sure enough to subdue Sirius quietly at this distance. Blake, if he doesn't succeed, may attract the attention of the Dementors stationed nearby,

"Follow me, Crookshan," said Lawrence softly, as he walked into the bar with Crookshan, bought butterbeer from Lady Rosta, and while the gang was moving, he borrowed a parchment feather pen, quickly wrote a few words, and then began with the line "Gryffindota Clearing,"

"Give this to him," Lawrence said eagerly, "and that should lure him into the schoolyard."

Crooksan thought for a moment, and he shoved the paper at his table, ran out of the bar, and after a while, ran back to take the paper away, and Lawrence put the yellow beer in his bag, and he secretly prayed that things would go smoothly.

That evening, as Harry wandered in the hallway, a cat and a black dog came into his sight, and when they saw Harry, they all stopped.

"Crook Hill?" Harry said, looking at the big black dog beside Crookshank with a strange eye, "Is this your friend?"

"Meow—" Crookhill barked, the big dog's grey eyes staring at Harry,

"Are you hungry?" Harry asked, and the big dog nodded,

"I'll take you to the kitchen for a bite to eat," Harry said with a smile, "and I was just trying to get something to eat."

He turned his back to the big dog and led the way, they walked quietly until they came to the portrait of the fruit bowl in the basement, Harry tickled at the pear in the painting, the pear turned into a green doorknob, Harry opened the door and entered, the big dog and Crookshank followed, Harry turned around and looked at the big dog with a smile, Dunburido stood up from the shadows, he smiled,

The big dog froze, he looked back, and Remus and Snape walked in behind him, the door was closed, and he had no way back, the big dog looked back at Harry, the distance between them was very close, as long as one pounce, if he subdued Harry at this time, the professors would not have time to rescue, he clearly knew that for Harry's safety, the professors would definitely let him go, but he gave up, he showed a human wry smile, and turned back into a tall and thin man,

"I want to ...... That's it." Sirius said in a hoarse voice as he dropped his wand, raised his hands, and took a step back away from Harry,

"Sirius," Remus smiled, his eyes moistened a little, and he walked over to give the stunned Sirius a hug, "I'm sorry."

"You're in luck." Snape whispered, "I don't think it's my business here, Headmaster."

"You guys?" Sirius was stunned, he didn't expect this to be the result,

"Look at Harry, Sirius." Deng Buliduo smiled, "He is the person you should be most grateful for."

Harry had changed, his hair was still black, but not as messy, his figure had begun to grow taller, and his facial features had begun to change, revealing dark purple pupils

"It's you—" Sirius was dumbfounded, looking at the Hogwarts student who had given him chocolate and food,

"I ended up asking a lot of people and looking up a lot of information," Lawrence smiled, and smiled a little slyly, "Dogs really can't eat chocolate."

"How did I get recognized?" Sirius asked dumbfoundedly,

"Oh, of course—no." Lawrence said, he laughed,

"Well, I'm glad Sirius," Dunburidor said with a smile, his blue eyes full of smiles, "we've been looking for you for a long time."

"Professor," Sirius breathed a sigh of relief, but his whole body was too relaxed to stand, and he was held up by Remus, "I don't understand—"

"It's a long story, tonight is a test to confirm our suspicions," Dunburlido said, "In the hallway, your sharp teeth have at least a chance to bite Harry's neck a few hundred times, and just now, even if you are in a siege, you still have no intention of taking Harry hostage, well, even though that Harry is all pretended by Lawrence."

"I—" Sirius was speechless,

"You should be glad too," said Dunbury, Lawrence pulling out the map at this point, "your youthful frivolity saved you, and by looking at it we can guess the outline of the whole thing."

"James—" Sirius couldn't hold back any longer, tears welling up in his eyes.
