Chapter 290 Secret

"I'm not excusing him, I mean, I remember what he was like at Hogwarts. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info If you had told me at the time that Blake was going to be what he is, I'd tell you not to drink too much next time. ”

"That's because you don't know the real truth, Rosmerta. Fudge said stiffly, "The worst thing he's ever done, few people know." ”

"The worst thing?" asked Lady Rosmerta, her voice full of curiosity, "do you mean worse than killing so many poor people?"

"Of course. "I can't imagine anything worse than that." ”

Professor McGonagall grimaced and said, "You said you remember what he was like at Hogwarts, Rosmerta. Do you remember who his best friend was?"

"Of course, remember, the two of them are inseparable. Ms. Rosmerta said, smiling softly.

"They're closer than brothers, and they love coming here. Oh, and I remember they always liked to make me laugh, they were a natural pair, a good pair, Sirius Black and James Potter. ”

Harry jerked and slammed into the corner of the table, making a muffled noise, and Ron kicked him to remind him to be quiet.

"yes, absolutely. Professor McGonagall muttered, "Blake and Potter, the leaders of the prank gang, they're both smart. Truth be told, very clever -- at least when it comes to causing trouble, we have never met anyone more capable of causing trouble than they are. ”

"I guess Fred and Joe will be able to compete with them. Hagrid laughed and said, "But I think Fred will lose." ”

"People think that Blake and Potter are brothers, and they have a better relationship than brothers. Professor Flitwick interjected, "They are inseparable. ”

Fudge snorted coldly and said, "Of course they are inseparable, and Potter trusts Blake completely. He trusted Blake more than anyone else, and more than all his friends. ”

He said in a somewhat gloomy tone, "Who would have thought that when they graduated and left school, it would be better like that." When Jaime and Lily got married, Black was still the best man, and they made Black Harry's godfather. Poor Harry didn't know any of this, and you can imagine how tormenting him would be if he did. ”

"Is it because Blake has taken refuge with a mysterious man?" asked Rosmerta in a low voice.

"Much worse than that, dear. Fudge lowered his voice and said in an emotional tone.

"Unbeknownst to many, the Potters have long understood that the Mystery Men are after them. Dumbledore had been rebelling against the Mysteries, and he had a lot of capable spies. One of the spies heard the news and told Dumbledore, who immediately informed Jaime and Lily. ”

Dumbledore advised Jaime and Lily to hide, and Dumbledore taught them to use the Loyalty Charm. At this, Fudge accentuated.

"It looks like a powerful spell, what good is it. Ms. Rosmerta asked curiously, this unknown news made her a little breathless with excitement.

Professor Flitwick coughed lightly and said, "It's a very complicated spell. Referring to his old profession, he said proudly.

"This spell can hide a secret in the soul of a living person, and the person who hides the secret, or the person who keeps it, hides the secret, and no one else can discover the secret again. ”

"Unless the secret is deliberately revealed, even if the mysterious person searches the village where the Potters live, they will never be found. Even with his nose pressed against the glass window outside the Porters' living room, he couldn't see anything. ”

Rosmerta pondered for a moment and said, "So, the Potters' secret is Black?"

"Of course. Professor McGonagall said coldly, "James Potter told Dumbledore that Blake would rather die himself than reveal their hiding place. He said that Blake was going to hide and that Voldemort would never find him. But Dumbledore was so worried that he offered to be the Potters' secret himself. ”

"Can't Dumbledore trust Blake?" asked the Rosmerta girl, gasping for breath.

Dumbledore was sure that some of the people around the Potters had been telling the mystery man about their whereabouts. Professor McGonagall said gloomily, "For a long time, he suspected that someone on our side had become a traitor, and revealed a lot of information to the mysterious man. ”

"James Potter still insists on using Blake as a secret?" Rosemerta gasped and exclaimed, "Doesn't he have a brain?"

"Maybe, maybe he just trusts Blake too much, and he trusts himself too much. Fudge said heavily, "It's been less than a week since I used the Loyalty Charm. At this, he was silent.

"Blake betrayed them. Rosmerta whispered.

"Yes, he betrayed them, and Blake is tired of the role of double agent. He's going to go public, he's going to publicly support the mystery man, and he's going to do that when Potter dies. Fudge said coldly.

"Everyone knows what happened next, the mysterious man lost his hand, and he unbelievably lost his hand in front of little Harry Potter. Having lost his magic and being so weak, he fled and hid. ”

This puts Blake in a dilemma, he has just revealed his identity as a traitor, his master has fallen, and he has no choice but to hide in Tibet. Fudge continued.

"Filthy, stinking traitor. Hagrid shouted, his voice shaking the bar to silence.

"Shhhhh

Hagrid ignored Professor McGonagall's gesture and yelled angrily, "I've seen that bastard, he killed so many, and I was the last person to see him before he was arrested. ”

"After the mystery man attacked and the others were killed, I was the first to arrive at the scene. It was I who found Harry from Jaime and Lily's house. I found him from the ruins, poor little fellow, with a long wound on his forehead. ”

His parents were dead, but Sirius Black showed up, riding his flying motorcycle. I didn't know what he was doing there, and I didn't know he was Harry's parents' secret. ”

"I thought he had heard about the mysterious man's attack and thought he was here to help. He was pale and trembling. Guess what I did? I even comforted that bastard, that murderer. Hagrid growled.
