Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Mysterious Patron Saint

In the depths of the Forbidden Forest, the dazzling white light did not dissipate, but soared into the sky.

The clouds floating in the sky, at the outermost edge, began to roll up rapidly, like a lotus flower that had already bloomed, and turned into a snow-white flower bag again.

Rove stood by the window, looking up into the distance, but the white light stabbed him so much that he could barely open his eyes.

Hermione suddenly reached out and pulled her time-turner out of her collar, only to see the hands of the golden needle timer at the end of the converter, trembling and humming.

It was the first time Hermione had encountered such a strange situation, and she was a little overwhelmed and said, "Rove, what's going on?" ”

Rove took the warm time-turner, and after looking at it for a moment, he didn't find any clues, so he looked at the portrait of the headmaster on the wall and asked:

"Professors, do any of you know what's wrong with this time converter?"

The old headmasters were all well-informed, and soon there was a red-nosed wizard wearing monocles, and said in a deep voice:

"I've seen this happen, it's the hour reversal spell in the time turner, which resonates with similar forces...... Child, hold the pointer and don't let it take you back in time. ”

"Thank you, Professor Fosco." Rove hurriedly pressed the hand directly with his thumb to prevent it from turning indiscriminately.

The time turner quickly regained its calm, and the bright light in the depths of the Forbidden Forest also vanished at the same time, although silent, but extremely powerful, completely shattering the sea of clouds in the sky.

Rove turned his head to look out the window, was silent for a moment, and sighed, "It seems that Professor Dumbledore should have gone to the Forbidden Forest." ”

This wave of white mangs looks huge, and I don't know what happened to the Forbidden Forest.

"So what do we do next?" Shirley whispered, "Are you still going to the Gryffindor lounge?" ”

"Go!" Rove bowed his head and said, "Our plan remains the same...... Capturing Peter was the priority. ”

If Dumbledore was in the Forbidden Forest, it didn't matter if they went or not, they wouldn't be able to help much anyway; If Dumbledore wasn't in the Forbidden Forest, he couldn't go.

The unknown is even more terrifying, and Rove would never put himself, Shirley and Hermione, in that unknowable danger.

"Our plan remains the same, I'll be hiding in George and Fred's dorm room for a while, and you guys will block the hallway with smoke bombs......"

The boy was about to say something, but Shirley suddenly stretched out her hand and pointed out the window, and said in a soft voice:

"Look, what's that!"

Rove looked out the window for the third time tonight, his eyes widening at a dazzling silver creature running through the air and speeding towards the headmaster's office.

It has a proboscis snout and is covered in fuzz...... It looks like sniffing.

The silver sniffer, after passing through the window, leaped towards the wall, snapped at the tip of his claws, folded towards another wall, and bounced at Rove, his speed had slowed down completely.

It landed gracefully on the ground, staring at Rove with a pair of large silver eyes.

Hermione was half excited, half surprised, and said, "A Patronus!" ”

She had consulted books and knew that the Patronus Charm was a very deep magic that many adult wizards could not cast.

The silver sniffer, after landing on the ground, tilted its head and raised its paws towards the window.

"It's like telling us to follow it." Shirley wondered, "Rove, do you know who this Patronus is?" ”

Rove shook his head, also full of suspicion, "I've never seen a Guardian Spirit in the form of a sniffer. ”

Dumbledore's Patronus is the Phoenix, Professor McGonagall's Patronus is the Cat, and Snape's Patronus is the Deer......

Rov carefully thought about all the wizards he knew, but none of them sniffed the patronus in form.

The boy frowned, his fingers tapped lightly, and the rhythmic tapping of fingers echoed in the principal's office.

The Patronus had apparently told them to follow it.

The Patronus Charm is a very special form of magic that cannot be used by all Death Eaters except Snape.

So, this is certainly not a trap summoned by Peter.

Besides, Peter couldn't have known he was in the Headmaster's office at this time!

But this kind of patron saint of unknown origin, Rove will definitely not leave with it rashly.

Just as Rove hesitated, Sniff walked over to the boy and rubbed his arm affectionately with his head.

Rove immediately felt a warmth, like a fire in winter, enveloping his whole body, making him warm both physically and mentally.

Although Rove didn't know this patronus, he could feel the closeness of the other party's heart, which was a kind of blessing in the dark.

Without the slightest hesitation, he said decisively: "It seems that the plan is about to change, and we will not go to the Gryffindor common room...... Follow it! ”

Rove took the broomstick out of the box, took Shirley and Hermione, and flew straight out of the window.

Rove didn't fly high, he was afraid of attracting the attention of the Dementors, so he just swept along the lawn, towards the low altitude at the edge of the castle.

The sniff completely dissipated after it arrived at the beating willow.

Rove landed in mid-air, and he frowned, "Is it for us to go to the screaming shack?" ”

When the beating willow felt the wizard approaching, the branches shook wildly.

Rove opened his chest and rushed forward with a sniff, dodging through the branches like a mouse with a full agility.

When it approached the willow, it placed its front paws on a knot on the trunk of the tree, and the willow seemed to have turned to stone, no longer moving, and all the leaves were still.

The three of them walked towards the beating willow and slid down a dirt slope, which was a very low secret passage.

They walked along the winding secret passage, and after walking for a long time, they finally came to the end:

It was a dusty house, the wallpaper had fallen off the walls, the floors were stained everywhere, the furniture was broken, and the windows were nailed with wooden boards.

At this moment, there was a creaking sound overhead, and someone seemed to be moving upstairs.

Rov made a silent gesture as he walked in front and climbed a crumbling staircase.

Everything was covered in a thick layer of dust, but there were footprints on the stairs.

All three of them tried to hold their breath, climbed to the second floor, followed the sound, and walked towards a room, there was movement behind the door, but the door was closed.

Rove grabbed his wand and pushed the door open.

I saw a dilapidated four-poster bed, the curtains around the bed were all dusty, and a short figure was sitting on the bed sobbing.

When the man heard the door pushed, he looked up in horror and looked at the uninvited guest.

Rove's face was full of surprise, he narrowed his eyes, was stunned at first, and then quickly smiled:

Peter Pettigrew...... Long time no see. I want to kill you! ”
