Chapter 386: We Must Do Something!
Why? Sirius frowned deeply and asked in a puzzled voice.
"In case you didn't know, Professor Dumbledore wasn't at Hogwarts lately! You should know very well that no one but him has the power to help you get away with it! ”
At this point, Ivan paused, then continued to explain. "The Ministry of Magic and the Inquisition will not easily admit their mistakes and tell everyone that because of their mistakes, a war hero has been imprisoned in Azkaban for more than ten years as a vicious Death Eater!"
And also preach a traitor like Peter as a hero, Ivan silently added in his heart.
This is definitely a shocking scandal, and if the high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Magic don't want to be sprayed to death by the roaring letters written by those angry wizards, they will definitely do their best to cover up the news!
Sirius fidgeted and paced in the small house, which he knew very well, but it was not an option to wait like this, who knew when Dumbledore would return, in case it would take a month or two or more?
Anything can happen in the meantime! What if Peter found an opportunity to escape?
The most important thing is that he has been holding back the killing intent in his heart since he sneaked into the Gryffindor bedroom yesterday and saw the damn mouse, and now he is almost at the limit.
"Why don't you bring Peter here this time tomorrow and let me kill him!" After half a ring, Sirius stopped and said viciously.
"You'd better calm down! Kill Peter and you won't want to get away with it! Ivan noticed that Sirius's mood was not right, and he spoke out to comfort him.
"How do you calm me down? I've waited long enough! Sirius shouted in anger.
Compared to killing Peter, Sirius felt that his affairs could be put to rest, and he didn't even care if he could get away with it....
"Do you want to live in the shadows for the rest of your life? Let Harry hate you so much and treat you like a vile betrayer? Ivan asked aloud.
"It was Peter who betrayed James, not me!" Sirius said word for word.
"Who knows?" Ivan looked at him and questioned mercilessly. "I ask you, who knows you're innocent? If Peter Pettigrew is dead, who can prove it to you?! ”
Sirius stared at Ivan, who didn't back down, and after a long stalemate, Sirius finally sighed and said hatefully.
"Anyway, we have to do something, we can't wait like this!"
Ivan didn't force him, but pondered for a while, and said, "In a while, it will be Halloween, and students from the third grade and above will go to Hogsmeade Village. Where will Peter and Harry be, we can find an opportunity to take Harry to a secluded place and explain the situation to him..."
"In addition, I will try to contact Lupin during this time, he is now a professor at Hogwarts and a good friend of yours, as long as you use the live map to let him know that the long-dead Peter is still alive, I believe Professor Lupin will be willing to listen to your explanation..."
Ivan remembered that Professor Lupin had clearly chosen to stand on Sirius's side after seeing the map of the living spot in the original plane, so he had the idea of wooing him.
Now that Dumbledore is not at Hogwarts, his words to Sirius really don't carry much weight, and if you add the testimony of Harry and Lupin, it is much more credible!
In this case, if Dumbledore accidentally makes a mistake before he returns, he will not face the worst outcome...
"Okay, then I'll wait a few more days!" Sirius hesitated for a long time, but agreed, he needed to at least explain it to Harry and Lupin before killing Peter.
Ivan breathed a sigh of relief, he was worried that Sirius would sneak into Hogwarts and kill Peter, which would be really bad.
Although Peter's death or not had no effect on him, Sirius himself was only wanted by the Ministry of Magic like the original plane, and could only live in hiding in the shadows.
Sirius had helped him a lot in Tumbledown Alley before, and if he could, Ivan certainly hoped that Sirius would be able to clear his name.
Later, the two discussed the details of the operation in the dilapidated house.
Ivan didn't dare to stay here for too long, for fear of being found out that he was away from the school for a long time, so after discussing the countermeasures, he ended this short meeting.
Before leaving, Sirius suddenly said as if he remembered something. "Hals, do you know what kind of gifts Harry likes? I scared Harry on his birthday, so I wanted to make up for his birthday. ”
"Harry? Kindness... He likes to play Quidditch, so maybe you can start with that! Ivan thought for a moment and suggested.
"Quidditch? I should have thought of it, after all, Jaime was a great Quidditch player when he was in school! Looks like Harry has inherited his father's talent well! Sirius gave a look of nostalgia.
"Of course, he's the best Seeker in Gryffindor right now!" Ivan said with a smile.
"In that case, give him a broomstick, if I'm not mistaken, a nice new broom has just been released recently, probably called a rocket crossbow... Harry will love it for sure! Sirius immediately clapped.
Rocket crossbow? The corners of Ivan's mouth twitched...
Tyrants! If he's not mistaken, it's a concept broom that has just been launched, and the price is negotiable!
It's amazingly expensive!
Although he couldn't afford it with his current financial resources, Ivan would never use the Golden Galleon for this kind of place, and he didn't play Quidditch anyway.
Kindness... What was Sirius' gift to Harry in the original plane, it seemed to be a rocket crossbow as well?
Ivan thought about things in his head, and his movements did not stop, using Animagus to transform into an owl, and under the gaze of Sirius, he flew all the way back to Hogwarts Castle through the circular passageway.
Finding a remote and uninhabited classroom, Ivan turned back into his human form and looked at the clock next to him.
"It's only been more than half an hour, so it shouldn't be discovered, right?" Ivan muttered to himself, found the nearest secret passage, and prepared to take a shortcut to the library to pretend, so as not to arouse suspicion.
With this in mind, Ivan walked out of the classroom and lit the recess in the wall next to it, opening a secret entrance.
At that moment, the dark blue Peeves happened to float from the other side of the hallway, and when he saw a young wizard in a Gryffindor uniform preparing to burrow into the dark tunnel, his eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and shouted.
"Aha! See what I found? A student opened the secret passage, but at this time, let me guess you must be going to see Blake, right? Inform him of today's password... Right? ”
Peeves giggled as he rapped, but when he got closer, he suddenly realized how this back was so familiar...
