When the Gryffindor common room was in chaos again, Maca, who was rushing back from the "Snow Witch", had just entered the secret passage that led to the beating willow.

But when he walked halfway with his head down, holding a vial of polished sand, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in his sight.

Maca was slammed to the ground by the black shadow, and the bottle in her hand fell to the ground, rolling all the way to the corner of the stone wall of the secret passage.

Luckily, the potions vial was quite strong, not only did it not break, but the condensate sand inside shone brightly due to the violent collision.

This time Maca saw clearly that it was none other than Sirius Black in the form of Animagus, the emaciated but large black dog.

Maca immediately struggled to pull out her wand, only to be slapped away by a claw from Blake, who had been staring at him.

"Who are you! Why here? Maca pretended to be panicked, and he kept struggling, but the black dog's strength was so strong that he couldn't move.

At this moment, the black dog glanced back - he was looking in the direction of Hogwarts Castle.

Suddenly, Maca's mind quickly analyzed the current situation.

To be honest, this encounter with Blake in the secret passage was not only unexpected by Maca, but it was also in his grasp.

During this time, Maca went back and forth to Hogwarts, always using this secret passage. In fact, he has been wondering if he will have a "coincidence" with Blake here?

But in any case, as long as you meet Blake here, then the other party must have done something, or wanted to do something.

At this moment, Blake was hurrying out, apparently having finished his business—and had no gains.

He was pondering, but the other party was quite anxious, and he opened his mouth to bite Maca's collar and dragged him out directly.

Maca glanced at the wand that was getting farther and farther away from him, but didn't resist much, allowing Blake to drag him away from the way he had come quickly.

He stared motionlessly at the top wall of the secret passage, like a child who had been frightened by what had just happened.

Blake dragged him all the way to the Screaming Shack, where he turned back into a human form.

"Fluorescent flickering." Blake read in a hoarse voice.

The last time it was too dark in the woods for Maca to see clearly, this time he could see it for real.

This is a tall man with black hair and gray eyes, but his long prison life has made him look quite thin, and his hair has long been messy and tangled.

A beard curled up against his dirty face as if it had been burned by fire, and if you go to Hollywood to play a homeless man sleeping on the street, you don't need to wear makeup.

Maca also noticed that the wand in his hand had also been changed, and it was not the one he had used to be.

"Sirius Black!" Maca tried to widen her eyes, feigning horror.

"Don't pretend," Blake snorted impatiently, "and with your acting skills, you can deceive children." ”

This time Maca was really surprised, what did he know?

Fortunately, Blake's next words made him secretly relieved.

"McLean, you're Harry's friend, I know that." He frowned and said quickly, "I don't care how you found this secret passage, but you see me now...... I'm sure I can't let you go back...... At least not for the time being. ”

He almost said the classic line "You will ruin my good deeds" for villains.

I have to say that Blake, who has spent 12 years in Azkaban, blames himself all the time for what happened back then. Until the summer vacation at the end of last semester, Ron's father won the annual award of the Daily Prophet and traveled to Egypt for a month.

What's even more coincidental is that the mouse Spotted, who has nothing to do, happened to be photographed in the photo and appeared in the news of the Daily Prophet!

In this way, the good show of mad dogs chasing leper rats officially started filming this year......

Blake is a man with hidden pride, who is willing to blame himself for the death of his best buddy and his wife, and is willing to single-handedly slash the real murderer.

For this, he even did not hesitate to bear all the infamy - he didn't care!

Now, Blake's pride to the point of conceit was repeated, and he stretched out his wand and pointed at Maca, as if he was about to cast some kind of movement restriction spell in the next second.

"You don't want Harry to think that his godfather is a murderer, do you?" Maca stared into his eyes and suddenly asked.

Blake's hand holding his wand trembled slightly, but he immediately steadied himself.

"So what! I just want to bite that damn rat to death! Blake's eyes flashed with madness, and he shouted loudly, "All petrified! ”

This damn lunatic!

Maca immediately rolled to the side, and a cloud of dust splattered up.

"You have nothing but hatred and self-blame on your head!" As soon as he realized that he hadn't been hit, he continued, "Think of your godson! Think Harry! It's been 13 years since he lost his parents! ”

Blake's movements stiffened, and a tangled look appeared on his face.

Maca took the opportunity to turn over, ignoring the dust all over her body, and hit the railroad while it was hot: "Don't you think you should do your duty as a godfather?" You should know that his aunt's family is not good to him at all - what he needs now is a relative who loves him and thinks about him everywhere! ”

With that, Maca stood up and walked in front of Blake without hesitation.

"Besides, what's the point of catching Peter? Kill him for Uncle Potter and—" Maca paused abruptly, then continued, "...... Did you get revenge on Aunt Lily? ”

It was so embarrassing that I almost couldn't remember what Harry's mother's name was......

Thankfully, Blake didn't notice that. He glared at Maca and shouted furiously, "It's revenge!" Avenge! Peter betrayed us, betrayed the Potters! You won't understand—"

At that moment, Maca grabbed Blake's dirty collar and said in the same loud voice, "What is that Voldemort!" Tell me about it! ”

"Voldemort? Isn't he dead? Blake froze.

"Are you underestimating Voldemort?" Maca felt that she should write a book called "How to Calm a Mad Dog."

He nudged Blake and let go of his collar - he didn't want to feel the slippery touch any longer.

"I'll just say it, it's only a matter of time before Voldemort returns." Maca said calmly, "Actually, Harry and I were in school once, he had already shown up once......

Maca gave a general account of the events at the end of the first grade, and Blake's face became much darker.

"I'm sorry, but I was too impulsive—" he frowned, but paused in the middle of the sentence, "Wait! Why do you know about Peter—"

"The average lifespan of a mouse is 1 to 3 years, what do you say?" Maca waved her hand casually and said, "Besides, the pseudonym on your live map is too careless, isn't it good to put a little more effort into it?" ”

Blake blinked in embarrassment.

"Then ......," he thought for a moment, he spoke, "do you really think that the traitor back then was not me, but Peter?" ”

Maca nodded, "At least that's what I deduced, and besides, I'm convinced of the magic theory I have...... Well? You eavesdropped on that conversation between me and the professors inside the three broomsticks? ”

The self-directed and self-staged show obviously paid off, after all, from Blake's point of view, what Maca said that day was all "real thoughts" that were "inadvertently" revealed.

With Blake's current situation, it's not easy to have an ally - he definitely won't miss it.

"Can you do me a favor?"

Sure enough, Blake spoke.

But his old conceited old fault probably can't be changed - he just asks Maca to help him keep an eye on Peter Pettigrew's movements and find an opportunity to tell him, that's all.

Truth be told, that's not what Maca wants. In Maka's opinion, this is really unsafe.

Fortunately, the main purpose of maca is not here. What's more, what is he going to do, does he need to inform Blake in advance?

"Uncle Black, there's one more thing I must ask you for......" Maka whispered as she leaned over Black.

……

That night, no one in the Gryffindor Tower at Hogwarts Castle slept.

Everyone knew that the castle had been searched again, and the entire Gryffindor House was in the common room, waiting to hear if Black had been caught.

At dawn, Professor McGonagall returned, and she told everyone that Blake had escaped again.

The next day, wherever they went, they saw increased security measures.

Professor Flitwick is holding a large picture of Blake and teaching everyone who guards the front door to recognize; Filch suddenly rushed back and forth in the hallway, and he threw the plank and nailed it to the small cracks in the walls to the rat holes.

And Sir Cadogan, whose brain was full of oil and glue, was miserably dismissed—his portrait was put back on the lonely staircase on the eighth floor.

Then, the fat lady returned.

They professionally repaired the fat lady, but she was still extremely nervous. Her return to work was conditional – she demanded that she be extra protected.

I don't know if it was the professor who decided to hire a group of rude gnomes to protect her, and they walked down the hallways with menacing steps, muttering and comparing the size of the sticks in their hands.

Harry overheard that the statue of the One-Eyed Witch on the fourth floor was still unguarded and unsealed.

Fred and George — now Harry, Ron and Hermione, of course — think they're the only ones who know there's a secret passage inside the statue, and that's probably right, at least for now.

"Who do you think we should tell?" Harry asked Ron.

"We know he's not from Duke Honey," Ron said nonchalantly, "and we'll hear if anyone breaks into that shop." ”
