Chapter 404: Coach.. No, Captain, I don't play anymore!
It was precisely because Ivan knew this that he was so cautious. I just don't want Peter Pettigrew to be the only witness to become the second Barty Crouch Jr...
Lupin paced back and forth in the small office after listening to Ivan's words, and his frown never let go, and after a long while, he stopped, sighed, and said.
"Well, as you say, we do have to be careful. But even if that were the case, we should have arrested Peter first, it was too dangerous to keep him with Harry! ”
Lupin was worried when he learned that Peter was now a pet with Ron in the form of a rat.
It's Gryffindor's bedroom, and it's full of young wizards, and if Peter gets angry, the consequences will be terrible... The street that was blown up in the first place is proof of that!
"I used the Oblivion Charm on Peter to make him forget something he shouldn't remember. Coupled with the fact that Peter has been a rat for more than ten years, it is unlikely that he will suddenly rage unless he is in a hurry, or his life is in danger. ”
Ivan shook his head and explained that as long as Peter wanted to live, it was impossible to expose himself.
Then Ivan continued.
"I've already made a plan for Peter's placement before Professor Dumbledore returns, and I'm already working on the idiosyncratic cage to hold Peter, but it's only going to take a few days!"
Peter is cunning and forbearing, Ivan knows very well, once Peter is vigilant, it is not easy to keep an eye on him.
Unless Peter was put under a stun curse a few times a day, Ivan was a little worried about whether Peter would starve to death.
So he still prefers to do the same as Barty Crouch Jr. in the original plane, making a special cage to imprison Mad-Eye, and then finding someone to keep an eye on, or simply carry it with him!
The materials needed to make the cage have been bought by Ivan for Dobby, and they will be able to be made in a few days.
According to Ivan's estimate, it should be used just after Harry and Sirius meet, and then Peter will be put in a cage and thrown to Sirius's care.
Ivan gave Lupin his plan for the next step, and Lupin thought for a moment before speaking.
"Hals, since you have your own plan, let's do it according to this, and if there's anything you need help with, just let me know!"
Ivan's plan had been well thought out, and Lupin couldn't think of a better way to deal with it, and the last-minute changes could be flawed.
However, looking at the thirteen-year-old wizard in front of him, Lupin was very emotional, Ivan was even better than he had originally expected.
was able to discover Peter, who had been hidden for many years, with the help of a living point map, and boldly contacted Sirius to crack the truth of the matter.
Even being able to take into account the next moves of the Ministry of Magic and give a plan accordingly, such wisdom and action can hardly be imagined that Lupin will see it in a young wizard who is underage.
After the two discussed for a while and agreed on some details, Ivan took his leave and left.
Persuaded Lupin unusually smoothly, Ivan suddenly felt refreshed, it was not easy to find someone to confide in the secret that he had held for so long.
All the way back to Gryffindor's common room from the professor's office, Ivan had just opened the door when he was startled by the sight inside.
Wood, George, and the others were dressed in golden and red Quidditch costumes, and Harry was among them.
They all had brooms in their hands and looked like they were ready to go on the march, and when they saw Ivan who opened the door and came in, George and Fred immediately greeted him happily and patted him on the shoulder and said.
"Hals! We've been waiting for you for a long time, and you're finally back! ”
"Well. Professor Lupin suddenly asked me for something, so I came back a little late. Ivan then explained, and then looked at their neat clothes, and couldn't help but complain.
"What's wrong with you? Planning to play Quidditch in the break room? ”
"No, we just think it's more ritual!" George shook his head and said solemnly.
"That's right! This will remind you of what it was like to play alongside everyone last year! Fred tried to put on a serious expression.
Harry and the others, dressed in their uniforms, looked embarrassed, they felt that they should not agree to George and Fred's obvious nonsense suggestion, but it was obviously too late to quit now.
So they could only bite the bullet and speak to Ivan under the lively eyes of many young wizards in the lounge.
"Hals... Come back and play with us! Only you can save this game! ”
"yes, you don't want to see us lose this year's Quidditch trophy, do you?"
......
A group of Gryffindor players spoke out to convince him, Ivan's face was very strange, he wanted to complain, but seeing everyone's serious appearance, he still swallowed the words again.
"Ivan, we've said so much, don't you have that feeling of blood boiling and your body about to burn?" George looked at Ivan, who had not expressed his position for a long time, and said bitterly.
He and Fred thought for a long time before they came up with such a "sensational" persuasion method, and spent a long time reluctantly persuading everyone to implement this plan, but the result did not seem to meet their previous expectations.
At this time, Captain Woodra let go of George and the others, walked straight to Ivan, put his hands on Ivan's shoulders, and said excitedly.
"Hals! Now is the most critical time, and Team Gryffindor needs you!
What conditions can you mention! As long as we can get our hands on this year's Quidditch trophy... I can also give you the position of captain! ”
Wood's tone was very sincere, this was his last year at Hogwarts, and he really didn't want to leave any regrets...
"I'm sorry... Captain! You should know, I don't play anymore! Ivan sighed helplessly, he had been thinking about such a deal with Peter Pettigrew recently, how could he be in the mood to play Quidditch!
What's more, Ivan knows very well that in the original plane, Gryffindor successfully won this year's Quidditch trophy, and it is the same with or without him!
However, after being rejected by Ivan, Wood did not give up, but tirelessly persuaded like kraft candy.
George and the others also followed suit, exaggerating the seriousness of the matter, as if Ivan didn't participate in the competition, some big crisis would break out in the wizarding world the next day...
For a while, Ivan had the illusion that he was going out to save the world, not playing a Quidditch match...
