Chapter 314: The Real Murderer

If it is not of my race, its heart will be different!

Although there is no such old saying in the West, the truth is the same. www.biquge.info Don't look at the fact that Westerners pay attention to human rights and equality every day, but in fact, they value blood more than anyone else, and they are more likely to have racial discrimination.

Especially in the wizarding world, the phrase "bloodline represents power" is not completely absolute, but it is enough to represent the opinion of a large part of wizards.

Here, even half-blood, Muggle-born wizards are discriminated against, let alone werewolves who are even more different from humans.

In fact, as can be seen from some of the plots in the original books, the rest of the Order of the Phoenix, including Dumbledore, has the lowest level of trust in Remus Lupin of the Robber Four.

When Dumbledore chose a secret for the Potter family, why would he rather choose Sirius, who was born in the Dark Arts, than Lupin? It's hard to say that he didn't think about Lupin's own werewolf identity.

And Lupin, who has known that he is different from others since he was a child, is far more sensitive than his peers, and naturally feels the rejection of the other members of the Order of the Phoenix.

This is why, after the end of the war, he would rather wander outside and live a difficult life on his own than return to England to seek the help of his former comrades.

Dumbledore had so much experience that he could see the gap between Lupin and the rest of the Order of the Phoenix. But he can't help it, there are really not a few members of the Order of the Phoenix who died at the hands of werewolves in the war, and it is almost impossible to make them have a good impression of werewolves.

Trust is naturally relative, and it is equally difficult to get Lupin to trust others when others do not trust him.

……

While his brow furrowed slightly, Dumbledore couldn't help but feel a little regret in his heart that he didn't choose to give Lupin more trust in the first place. Especially when he thought about the incident he had just dealt with before coming, the remorse became even heavier.

Peter Pettigrew, who has been recognized by the Ministry of Magic as dead for more than ten years and posthumously named a hero of the wizarding world, is still alive!

When he heard the news from the dialect, Dumbledore's heart was filled with a sense of foreboding.

And when Dumbledore continued to hear from the dialect that Peter Pettigrew had been hiding with the Weasley children in the form of a rat in the form of an Animagus for more than ten years, and now he even followed Ron as a pet and lived in Harry Potter's bedroom, his face instantly turned blue.

Although the dialect did not continue to be directly understood at that time, how could Dumbledore not see the meaning behind this matter.

Dumbledore, who knew James Potter's character very well, guessed the truth of the matter almost as soon as he finished speaking in dialect - the Potters had changed their secrets.

So, if what the tongue says is true, then it wasn't Sirius who betrayed the Potters, but Peter Pettigrew in the first place!

The more wise the leader, the more he cannot tolerate the betrayal of his subordinates. So after waiting for the dialect to leave, Dumbledore began to convene and reorganize the Order of the Phoenix, and at the same time, he also launched an investigation into the matter as soon as possible, and quietly approached and observed Ron's pet mouse Spotted.

And the result is also obvious, Dumbledore, who had been teaching Transfiguration before becoming the Headmaster, was naturally no stranger to the advanced Transfiguration technique of Animagus. He hadn't thought about it before, but now that he was serious, he couldn't see the abnormality in this mouse named Spotted.

The simplest flaw, how can an ordinary mouse live for ten years?

And when Dumbledore confirmed that the Weasleys' pet rat named Spotted was really the wizard's Animagus form, while hatred for the traitor rose in his heart, he was not only speechless for the Weasleys' rough nerves, but also a little afraid.

Keep in mind that Hogwarts students' pets are allowed in the bedroom - which means Peter Pettigrew has plenty of time and opportunity to kill his savior during those two years!

Even if Dumbledore believed in Peter Pettigrew's guts and would not dare to do so until Voldemort made an official appearance, it was a security hazard that Dumbledore would never tolerate.

However, this hidden danger has now been removed. As soon as the identity of the mouse was confirmed, Dumbledore took control of him, but did not choose to hand him over to the Ministry of Magic as in the original books.

When it fell into Dumbledore's hands, Peter Pettigrew was in complete despair. He deeply understood how terrifying Dumbledore's strength was, and before Dumbledore began to interrogate, he told the story of the year like a bean.

Of course, he didn't cry out and beg Dumbledore's forgiveness.

Dumbledore listened to Peter Pettigrew with a look on his face, along with Professor McGonagall and Snape. Unlike Dumbledore, who had already vaguely guessed and prepared for it, the other two were dragged into extreme shock by the appearance of Peter Pettigrew and his words.

Unlike Professor McGonagall, who was simply shocked and sad, Snape was almost unable to contain the murderous intent in his heart.

He didn't expect that the truth of the matter back then would be so twists and turns! The dirty and ugly guy in front of him, like a rat in the gutter, turned out to be the real murderer of Lily!

At the first time, Snape wanted to kill this guy to avenge Lily, but fortunately, Dumbledore, the only one who was still calm at the scene, stopped him in time, but it also scared Peter Pettigrew enough to hide behind Dumbledore.

Although his heart was also full of anger, Dumbledore, who was looking at the whole situation from the level of a leader, had more things to think about than Snape.

Peter Pettigrew deserves to be damned, but not now! As for Peter Pettigrew's treatment, Dumbledore had other plans in mind.

Dumbledore thought that the living were more important than avenging the dead. Now that Peter Pettigrew has been proven to be the real murderer of the Potters, Sirius, who is still being held in Ardica Kaban, must be innocent.

It stands to reason that Dumbledore could not have allowed Sirius to continue to suffer in Azikaban.

Snape was noncommittal about Dumbledore's approach. Although Sirius had been proven innocent, Snape still didn't have a good impression of the "stupid dog" in his heart.
