"You're illegally coercing a confession!" Peter screamed and jumped to his feet, reaching out to smash both bottles, but Sirius stepped first, snatched one of them, and tilted his head to pour the contents of the bottles into his mouth.

"Choke! Choke! At the sound of the two bottles shattering, Peter's feet went soft and fell to the ground, but Sirius's face was strangely flushed, "Ask! He shouted excitedly.

"Who is the Potter family's secret?" Dumbledore asked the most crucial question.

"It's him!" Sirius stared viciously at the man at his feet, "Peter Pettigrew! ”

"Nonsense!" Peter struggled to his feet, large beads of sweat began to pop up on his forehead, and his face was completely bloodless, "You're the secret one!" You killed Jaime and Lily! ”

"That's right! I could have killed them! Sirius shouted hoarsely, "Because I persuaded them, at the last minute, to switch to Wormtail, to use him as a secrecy, and not me—I thought it was the perfect plan—a brilliant plan—that no one else would have thought they would take advantage of something as weak and stupid as you—"

His tone suddenly became very fierce, and Peter couldn't help but take a step back with his gritted teeth, "But when I got to Jaime's house, and saw the destroyed house, and saw their corpses, I realized how wrong I had been!" I actually let a traitor protect them. ”

"I'm not a traitor!" Peter shouted hysterically, but Sirius glared, and he took a step back in fright.

"If you're not a traitor!" Professor McGonagall pursed her lips and said, "Then why did you turn into a rat and hide for 12 years?" ”

"Of course I'm hiding from him!" Peter quickly reached out to Sirius, "I know he's chasing me!" I knew he was going to come back to me! I've been waiting for this for 12 years! He screamed loudly, as if he wanted to release all the grievances at once.

"Why? Did you know that Black would escape from Azkaban? Hasn't anyone escaped before? Professor McGonagall narrowed her eyes sharply and continued to ask.

"He has evil spells that the rest of us can only dream of!" Peter continued to scream, his breathing becoming unusually rapid, "How else would he have escaped from there?" I guess the guy who can't even mention his name once taught him some tricks! ”

Sirius suddenly let out a loud laugh without any joy: "Voldemort, teach me tricks!" ”

Peter took a small step back obscenely, as if Sirius had whipped him.

"What? Afraid to hear the name of your old master? Sirius seemed to have discovered something funny. "I don't blame you, Peter, his men don't like you very much!" When I was in Azkaban, I often heard them screaming in their dreams and talking about all sorts of things. They all think you're a liar! Voldemort arrived at the Potter house based on your intelligence, and in the end—he missed. ”

"They were so angry about it! So you play dead to hide from them, because not all Voldemort's supporters are imprisoned in Azkaban! And many more, waiting for their moment, pretending that they have recognized their mistake-"

Sirius looked meaningfully at Snape. Then he looked at Peter with a wicked grin, "If they get the news and know you're still alive, Peter—"

"You're crazy! Absolutely insane! Peter's face was covered with sweat like rain, and in a moment his clothes were completely soaked, "You've been scared crazy by the Dementors, and you're full of cranky thoughts!" ”

"Isn't it cranky, wouldn't it be clear if you asked a Death Eater?" Sirius had an unusually exaggerated smile on his face, "See who the traitor is working for Voldemort?" ”

Peter stepped back with a dead face. The mouth kept muttering "ridiculous" and "crazy".

"I have a question!" Professor Sprout suddenly raised his chubby hand, "Since Peter has always turned into a mouse, pretending to be Ron. Mr. Weasley's pet, so why did he last two years. Never tried to hurt Harry? If only he really worked for the mystery man. ”

"That's right!" Peter gasped and nodded gratefully at Professor Sprout, "Thank you!" Professor Sprout! I really have never hurt a single piece of Harry's fur! Why should I hurt him? He spread out his hands to show how innocent he was.

"I'm here to tell you why?" Sirius gave a creepy smirk, "Because." If you don't think it's good for you, you won't do anything for anyone. ”

"Especially under Dumbledore's nose, for one who has lost all his mana. It's said that it's been a half-dead guy for a long time to kill people, right! ”

Sirius' question frightened Peter's whole body stiff.

"Before you return to him, you must be sure that he is the most powerful man, right?"

Peter seemed so frightened that he stopped breathing,

"So you've found a magical family so that you can hear the latest forms at any time, right! Peter! ”

The shout was like a hammer blow, knocking Peter staggering back a step.

"You want to know as soon as possible if your old protector has regained his power, so that you can quickly return to him and be safe, right? Worm Tail! ”

Peter opened his mouth and closed it, repeating it several times, as if he had lost the ability to speak.

His watch made everyone's hearts drop slightly, so Professor Flitwick couldn't help but ask a question: "Sirius!" How did you get out of Azkaban, if you hadn't used the dark arts? ”

"Thank you! Professor Flitwick! Peter finally burst out, "That's exactly what it is!" It's exactly ...... I'm going to ask," but when he noticed the other people's glances, he immediately fell silent.

"I don't know how I did it." Sirius frowned slightly, thinking slowly about how to answer, "I think the only reason I didn't lose my mind was because I knew I was innocent, and it wasn't a pleasant thought, so the Dementors didn't suck it out of my head—so I could keep my head clear, and conserve my mana—and if I couldn't take it anymore, I'd be in my cell—"

"I see!" Professor Flitwick slapped his palm, "Dementors can be aware of human feelings, but dogs have a harder time because animal feelings are chaotic. At the same time, it can trick them into thinking that you, like everyone else, are losing their minds. ”

"Yes, that's why when I deleted the photo from the newspaper and saw Peter—" Sirius reached into his robe with a hand like a bird's claw, and pulled out a crumpled piece of paper to smooth it out, which was the Weasleys' picture in the Daily Prophet.

"The newspapers say that its owner will be going back to Hogwarts to be with Harry - if he gets the slightest word that the dark forces are gathering power, he can take action from there and arrest the orphans of the Potter family and deliver them to his allies, and who will dare to say that he ever betrayed Voldemort? He's going to go home with a lot of honor—"

Peter shook his head vigorously, his mouth moving silently, and the sweat on his body was already like a stream, drenching the ground beneath his feet.

"So I have to act, because I'm the only one who knows that Peter is alive—" Sirius stared at Peter, his eyes burning as if "the thought was like a fire, and the Dementors couldn't put it down, it was an attachment that gave me strength and made my mind incredibly clear." ”

"So, when they opened my cell door one night to deliver food, I turned into a dog and slipped away from them, and I swam back to the mainland, to the north, to Hogwarts, oh! By the way, I went to London before coming to Hogwarts to see Harry, but you don't seem to be at your aunt's house? He looked at Harry.

"I went to Africa with Catherine and others." Harry was embarrassed and regretful, but then he was at a loss again.

"That's it! But that's fine, at least it won't scare you! Sirius gave an ugly smile before looking guiltily at the red-haired girl, "I don't know where you are, Catherine?" All I knew was that you would definitely go to Hogwarts, but I didn't dare to enter the castle for fear of being discovered, so I had to hide in the Forbidden Forest all the time, but I really didn't-"

His tone suddenly became agitated, "I saw you there, and I thought you were-" He didn't say more, just waited for Snape to look dissatisfiedly before looking at the red-haired girl again with remorse, "Catherine! At the beginning—12 years ago, I—"

"You don't have to apologize, and you don't have to make amends!" Catherine suddenly interrupted Sirius, "I did hate you once, I hated you to the core, but 12 years have long since wiped out this hatred without a trace.

What's more, if you hadn't left me alone, I wouldn't have been sent to the Princes orphanage, I wouldn't have learned so much, I couldn't have understood, 'It's not terrible for a person to be knocked down, it's terrible to be unable to get up after falling, or to get up too late.' So I can get to where I am today, and I have to thank you for what you did in the first place. ”

Catherine's smile didn't have the slightest hint of a smile at all, but was frighteningly cold.

Sirius looked at Catherine in shock, he had imagined countless times when the two would be reunited, but he never thought it would be like this: "I don't understand—you're not—"

"Don't get me wrong! The one who wants to save you is Remus! The one who wants to find out the truth is Harry! It's just that they don't have enough ability, so I made a move, and now that the truth has been revealed, there is no more to me here. Catherine bowed slightly, then turned straight away.

"Stupid dog! Do you think what Catherine just took out was really a truth spitting? Snape spoke suddenly, "That's just a concentrated nutrient solution." (To be continued......)
