Hogwarts. Gryffindor common room.

"Look, Azkaban has escaped from prison again!" Ginny noticed the big news and ran in from outside, holding the newspaper in her hand high.

"Oh my God, what's going on with this Azkaban? Why do people keep breaking from jails lately? “

"Well, I'm talking about the fact that there have been more and more Dementors around Hogwarts lately, and they weren't just guarding against Bellatridge."

"Who is the one who escaped from prison this time?"

"Sirius Black."

As soon as the name appeared, everyone's eyes focused on Harry.

Harry felt a little overwhelmed by the staring at so many pairs of eyes, shrunk his head, and whispered to Ron next to him, "Why is everyone looking at me like this?" ”

"Because of Sirius Black." Ron said as a matter of course.

Unlike Harry, and even Hermione, who entered the wizarding world halfway through Muggle society, Ron was trained in the wizarding world since he was a child, and he is familiar with the legends of this older generation.

Don't look at how Ron's father likes Muggles, in terms of status and bloodline, Weasley is the same as the Malfoy family, they are all pure-blood wizarding families, and they are quite famous, but they don't have money......

"Like the Death Eater named Bellatridge, this Sirius is also a big fan of the mystery man, and, it was he who betrayed and participated in the plot to kill your parents, and afterwards, your father's best friend Peter Pettigrew sought revenge on him, but was killed by him, and now, the Merlin Medal of the First Class commemorating Peter Pettigrew is still in the exhibition halls of the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts, and it is said that at that time, Sirius Black killed 12 Muggles in a frenzy after killing Peter Pettigrew and blew up the entire street... …”

Harry still knew for the first time that his parents' deaths were like this, and after hearing this, he couldn't help but secretly hate that Sirius.

Hermione, on the other hand, looked at Harry sympathetically, not knowing how to comfort her.

"Hmph."

The sudden sneer made Harry, Ron, and Hermione look at Li Yang in surprise.

Li Yang's sneering expression instantly retracted, and he coughed lightly, "I think this is called Sirius, it really deserves to be killed." ”

When he said this, a faint helplessness crossed the depths of his eyes.

"That's right."

Harry and the three of them were limited by age and inexperience, so they couldn't see Li Yang's abnormality, but they were indignant, or agreed, or condemned.

"Let's not talk about that, with Dementors on guard outside the school, Bellatridge and Sirius Black won't be able to get in." Hermione took the stubble with a word.

Harry frowned, "I don't think those Dementors can protect us, in fact, I think Hogwarts is enough, if even Headmaster Dumbledore can't protect us, I don't think even more Dementors will help." ”

"I also think it's useless for the Ministry of Magic to send Dementors to Hogwarts, and if the Ministry of Magic could really catch someone, the Caro siblings would have been caught two years ago." Ron snorted, apparently still haunting what happened to his first year.

"I'm not talking about Dementors, listen to me, don't interrupt me."

Hermione watched the two of them get farther and farther apart, glared at them with some dissatisfaction, and continued, "I discovered a secret. ”

Harry and Ron listened quietly.

Hermione said nothing, and said, "You won't believe me when I say it." ”

Then he glanced around suspiciously, and saw that the other students were still looking at this side, so he lowered his voice, "Originally, I noticed it a few days ago, but I don't think you will believe me, so I deliberately waited until today, tonight, I will take you to confirm it with your own eyes, Harry, don't forget to bring your invisibility cloak when the time comes." ”

Harry and Ron looked at each other, their curiosity filled with curiosity.

Li Yang was silent, not knowing what he was thinking, and when the break was over and he was about to go to class, he suddenly stepped forward quickly and grabbed Ron, "Ron, where are your spots?" ”

"Maybe it's going out to play, I can't always keep it in a cage."

Ron became vigilant after speaking, "You're not still beating me up for Spotted's idea, are you?" ”

"It's okay, just ask." Li Yang casually said perfunctory and went to class.

Classes and classes.

And so the student's day passed.

In the evening, Li Yang, Harry, and Ron sneaked out of the dormitory and came to meet Hermione as agreed.

In the first year, of course, they didn't dare to be so bold, but after three years in school, Harry and Ron, even Hermione dared to sneak out of the dormitory in the middle of the night.

The four of them slipped all the way to the outside of the school, and then put on an invisibility cloak and squatted at the school gate.

The night was dark and the full moon was in the sky.

The surroundings are so quiet, and the sound of any small animal feels unusually scary.

Ron swallowed, "What the hell are we waiting for?" ”

"Don't talk, just look." Hermione was silent.

Soon.

A person walks out of the school.

Hermione immediately beckoned the attention of a few people behind her, and the four of them waited with bated breath.

This person walked very slowly in the school, looked around from time to time, and when he saw others around him, he immediately quickened his pace, and when he walked through the school gate, by the moonlight, the four of them finally saw this person's face clearly.

"Lupin."

Looking at Lu Ping's fading back, it was Li Yang who couldn't help but speak first.

Harry and Ron had their mouths equally open.

When they didn't see it clearly just now, they thought it was a thief or something like a bad guy, after all, Lupin's behavior at that time was too suspicious, but they didn't expect that it would be their favorite teacher.

"Keep up." Hermione became the little leader, and the three of them followed.

Follow Lupin.

Arrived in front of the beating willow.

The painful memories of last year came to mind, and in normal times, Harry and Ron would not dare to go any further, but this time with Lupin in front of him, he used the levitation technique to make all the branches of the beating willow float and could not fall, so that Harry and the four of them could easily pass.

And there was a secret passage under the beating willow, and when the four of them walked out of this secret passage, they had already appeared in the screaming shack in Hogsmeade Village.

Hogsmeade is a pure wizarding village near the school, and the school requires students in the third grade and above to play on their days off, and must have a signed permission from their guardians.

During the Christmas holidays, Harry had been wanting to come here for a long time, begging Professor McGonagall not to get it, but he didn't expect it to come true at this time.

The screaming shack is on the edge of the village, and because of the haunted legend, the local villagers dislike it, and the students are afraid to set foot here.

Harry and the others were here for the first time.

Like the haunted houses they remembered, the Scream Shack was very dilapidated, with all the furniture broken, old and old, and the surrounding walls and floors showing obvious signs of destruction.

Lupin set his wand aside, out of his reach, and lifted the worn couch cushion up with a mezzanine inside.

There's a bunch of stuff in the mezzanine.

Thick chains, bloodstained shackles, locks as big as fists......

"What is he doing?" Ron looked at these things, and horrific images flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help but whisper Hermione.

Hermione glared at her, indicating that she would not speak.

It's a pity that it's late.

"Who?"

Lupin, who had just taken out the chains and other objects, was like a manic patient with a sensitive mind, and reacted extremely violently, throwing the chains and other objects on the ground, almost rushing to the wand in a desperate posture.

Just about to pick it up.

Suddenly, the wand flew up on its own, swirled, and landed in a corner.

In this corner squatted something no bigger than a palm.

Long beard, gray hair, sharp protruding front teeth......

It's spotty!
