Chapter 119: It's all tied

"It's Sirius Black!"

I don't know who was the first to recognize Blake, but as soon as this shout sounded, the little wizards present took out their wands and pointed them at Blake.

Zhang Xu raised his left hand above his head and made a gesture, and the onlookers surrounded Blake and Lupin in a circle.

"Calm down, things don't seem to be as simple as you think." Zhang Xu patted Harry on the shoulder and said to him.

Harry listened to Zhang Xu's words, took a few deep breaths to calm his excitement, and put down the hand that was about to cast a spell on Blake just now.

At this time, Blake also calmed down, he encountered too many accidents during this time, he was almost boiled three times, and he was also taken in by well-wishers during this time, which was enough to restore his chaotic head.

"You killed my parents?" Harry said in a trembling voice, raising his wand in his hand.

"I don't deny it." Blake said calmly to Harry.

At this moment, there was a "bang" behind the onlookers.

Snape's wand burst out with snake-like bands at the end of his wand and automatically wrapped around Black's mouth, wrists, and ankles, causing him to lose his balance and fall to the floor, unable to move.

Just now, when Lupin was looking around for people in Hogwarts Castle, he was discovered by Snape, who had always thought that Lupin had a problem, and Snape had been quietly following Lupin.

"The taste of revenge is sweet." Snape walked up to Black and said to him, "How I wished I had been the one who caught you." The Dementors around Hogsmeade, they'll be glad to see you, Black. I'm sure I'll be happy to give you a little kiss. ”

Snape's sudden appearance surprised everyone, and Lupin and Black became nervous as they watched him prepare to find the Dementors.

"Severus, you're wrong. Not Sirius, it's him. Lupin said eagerly, pointing to the beer-glasses on the table.

"Don't you think you're making a clumsy excuse?" Snape said to Lupin, "A skinny rat, you think it's a murderer?" ”

"He's Peter Pettigrew, an Animagus who has never been registered." Lupin said, pointing at Spotted.

Lupin's words caused an uproar among the onlookers, and this year, because of Blake's prison escape, the incident of Peter Pettigrew was also reported, so they all knew the meaning of Lupin's words.

The most surprising were Harry and Ron.

Earlier at the Three Broomsticks Bar, Zhang Xu guessed that Peter Pettigrew was not dead, which made Harry excited for a while. Harry usually couldn't stop imagining Peter Pettigrew as someone like Lupin. As a result, Lupin now tells him that Peter Pettigrew has not only turned into a mouse and lived with him for three years, but most importantly he is also the murderer who caused the death of his parents.

Ron's head was still in chaos at this time, and the pet who had lived in his house for many years was actually Animagus and Peter Pettigrew, which made his head unable to function.

"I think you'd better think about your life in Azkaban, twice helping Blake infiltrate Hogwarts, and the third time you happened to meet the students who were caught holding a banquet." Snape said with his wand pointed at Lupin.

The surrounding students heard Snape say that Lupin had helped him in infiltrating Hogwarts the first two times, and pointed their wands at Lupin.

Zhang Xu didn't let Snape go down like this, and said to him, "Professor Snape, it doesn't matter if this mouse is Peter Pettigrew or not, but it's certain that he's an Animagus." I guess it's better to let him change back to the prototype. ”

"I don't think there's any need to do that." Snape glared at Zhang Xu and said.

Zhang Xu can see that Snape is taking the opportunity to kill Blake, and by the way, bring Lupin with him.

Black almost killed Snape back then, and if it weren't for Harry's father to save him, Snape's grave grass would be two meters tall now.

From Snape's point of view, this revenge is impossible.

And from Zhang Xu's position, he doesn't mind if Snape wants revenge, whether Snape uses the forgiveness charm to leave Blake's whole body, or Shenfeng is cut into several pieces, it doesn't matter to Zhang Xu.

Blake had tricked Snape into finding Lupin, a werewolf, for his own amusement, but he had underestimated the harm his actions had caused, or had not even thought about the harm he would cause.

It's like a child upstairs who thinks it's fun to throw something downstairs, so he throws beer bottles from the roof to the downstairs without thinking about the consequences of hitting someone. (The author used to live in a neighborhood where he almost killed a motorcyclist, but luckily the motorcyclist was wearing a motorcycle helmet with a foam layer inside.) )

If it weren't for Harry's father who was sensible and arrived in time to save Snape, not only Snape's grave would have been weeded, but also the graves of Black and Lupin in Azkaban.

But on the other hand, if Snape takes revenge now, then Voldemort's other Horcrux will not be able to get his hands on, which is still quite difficult for Zhang Xu to accept.

"I think it's necessary." At this moment, a majestic voice came from the gate of the screaming shack.

Scarlett with his wand in hand didn't know when he arrived at the screaming shack.

Ignoring Snape, who had a cold face, Scarlet walked straight to the buttoned beer glass, staring at the shivering spots under the glass.

Snape wanted to say something, but he stopped as soon as he opened his mouth, and he couldn't afford to mess with the one in front of him, so he decisively followed his heart.

"Professor Scarlett ......"

Before Lupin could finish his sentence, Scarlet turned around, and a spell brought him down, and then conjured a rope to tie him up as well.

"I'll give you a chance to speak, but not now." Scarlet said as he looked at Lupin and Blake, who were tied up on the ground.

Scarlet then removed the beer glass that had been clasped to Spotted, and a blue-white glow from his wand struck Spotted.

After a while, Spotted hung in mid-air, his body writhing wildly. When it fell to the floor, there was another dazzling flash of light, and then a head appeared on the ground, and limbs stretched out, and a moment later, a man stood where Spotted was, wincing and wringing his hands.

Seeing that the mouse had actually turned into a wizard, the onlookers screamed, and Ron, Harry, and Hermione shouted.

Lupin and Blake, who were tied up, saw this man and squirmed excitedly, they wanted to shout something, but their mouths were tied with ropes, and they could only make a "whine" sound.

"Peter Pettigrew?" Scarlett asked, staring at the wizard.

"Yes...... It's me. Peter replied in a high-pitched voice.

Scarlet did not reply, and as he did with Lupin, he used a spell to knock Peter down and conjure up a rope to tie it strongly.

"Take them all back to Hogwarts and take them to Beater Willow." Scarlet said to the students around him.

Seeing this, Snape walked into the secret passage back to Hogwarts without looking back.

Seeing this, the other students also used levitation charms to get the three of Lupin into the secret passage.

Before leaving, Harry looked at Scarlet and Zhang Xu, who gave him a reassuring look.

In the end, there were only Zhang Xu and Scarlet left in the screaming shack, and Zhang Xu pulled Scarlett's sleeve.

"What's wrong with you today?" Zhang Xu asked.

Just now he felt that there was something wrong with Scarlet's state, usually her temper was not so short-tempered, and she would not cast a spell without saying a word.

"It's all right," Scarlet said, "don't worry. ”

Scarlet said this, and Zhang Xu couldn't continue to ask.

Half an hour later, there were people standing around the beating willow.

The students' lighting magic illuminates the surroundings as if it were daytime.

Lupin, Blake, and Peter were firmly tied to the trunk of the beating willow, and the branches of the beating willow kept running in front of them.

On the side of the beating willow, Dumbledore and the four deems and other professors stood outside the range of the beating willow branches flying. Standing beside the professors was Minister of Magic Fudge and his henchmen, who had just arrived. They all had solemn expressions on their faces.

Harry stood at the front, and Scarlet said something to him beside him.

Scarlet said to Harry, "One of the properties of the Killer Willow is that it can tell if the person tied to its trunk is telling the truth or a lie by pressing the knots on its branches for more than a minute, and at the same time drenching its trunk with some special potions. If it is true, then the beating willow will not attack him. If you say a lie, then you will be attacked by the beating willow. ”

"Then it's your time." Scarlet patted Harry on the shoulder and said, "Just ask about what happened back then." ”

Zhang Xu came to Dumbledore and Fudge's side and asked them, "Professor Dumbledore, Mr. Minister, does this method of distinguishing whether a lie is being told work?" ”

Fudge nodded and said, "This method is one of the polygraph methods approved by the Ministry of Magic, and there are many examples of successful polygraphs using this method in the previous materials of the Ministry of Magic. ”

Dumbledore followed suit, "It's just that a hundred years ago, the method of making potions needed to use this method was lost on the market. Unexpectedly, the Scarlet family still has a way to make this potion. ”

Zhang Xu heard the two bigwigs say that this method worked, so he took out snacks and watched the excitement on the side.

At first, Peter tried to tell Harry that he had been wronged, but he was pulled by the branch of the beating willow and told the truth.

The final result was as Zhang Xu expected, just like in the "plot", Harry's father and his godfather played smart, and as a result, they played with their own lives.
