Chapter 102: Professor McGonagall's Threat
Peter Pettigrew is dead.
It's a sure-fire thing.
Rov killed Peter...... Certainly not an imposter using a polyjuice potion, whether it was an animagus in the form of a rat or a silver arm, it could prove his identity.
So, who was it that infiltrated the Gryffindor lounge at about the same time?
"Lies! Absolute lie!! ”
After hearing the news of Peter's death, Fudge, who hurried to the principal's office, said in a categorical tone:
"Arthur's two sons must be lying!!"
"Mr. Minister!" Professor McGonagall pursed her lips and said solemnly, "Both Mr. George Wesley and Mr. Fred Wesley promised that they were not lying. ”
"Of course they won't admit it." Minister Fudge scoffed:
"But if you think about it, why did Peter go to their dormitory, and the two sides didn't have anything to do with each other...... Peter wants to infiltrate Hogwarts, and he should go to Rove for revenge......"
Hearing this, Rove, who was standing not far away and was teasing Fawkes, couldn't help but look up...... Thank you, Secretary Fudge, for your advice to Peter, and thank you for your eighteenth generation.
Fudge didn't notice that Rov was greeting the women in his house, and he was still gushing:
"I just heard Snape say that Arthur's two sons are like pranks, and they must be deliberately trying to make big news...... I've seen a lot of these kinds of students! ”
"Connelly, I believe in my students." Dumbledore, who was sitting in a chair, said in a deep voice:
"George and Fried may like to do things out of the ordinary, but when it comes to this, they don't lie."
Fudge choked, wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, and muttered:
"That is, the dormitory was too dark at that time, and they saw the wrong person! Otherwise, who used the polyjuice decoction and pretended to be Peter...... Yes, probably the accomplice who kidnapped him! ”
Dumbledore didn't speak, just put his fingertips together and pressed his chin together.
Fudge continued:
"Albus, Peter is dead, the body is in the school hospital, do you believe the words of Arthur's son, but not Rove?"
Dumbledore glanced at the boy who was playing with the birds, and said, "Of course I believe Rove, I just don't recommend that you make the news of Peter's death so arbitrary." ”
"Why? Albus, since you also think Peter is dead, why don't you agree with me to make this matter public? Fudge said impatiently:
"The people were all afraid, they were all afraid, they were all wondering what was going on with Peter. If they knew Peter was dead, they would feel at ease, and the Ministry would be much less stressed. ”
Finally, that's what Fudge values the most.
After Peter Pettigrew was kidnapped, he was unable to return for a long time, which has caused many political enemies to start attacking him, and some people have accused him of being incompetent.
Mrs. Fudge needed to make this public, so that she could stand up to the public.
"Of course, Albus, I know you're worried about the wizard who kidnapped him." Fudge's attitude softened and said:
"I assure you, the Ministry of Magic will not give up the hunt, and since he has infiltrated Hogwarts, he will definitely come back, and we will capture him."
Fudge picked up his top hat and put it over his head, and he hurried:
"Alright, it's time for me to go back to the Ministry of Magic now, and gather those reporters for a press conference...... It was a busy night. ”
Instead of immediately walking out of the office, Fudge walked towards Rove, grabbed his hand, and said enthusiastically:
"Well done, Rove, you caught Peter again, it was beyond my expectations."
"Mr. Minister, it's not just me who owes it, but also two of my friends." Rove said softly.
"I remember those two girls." Fudge frowned and said, "You lived with them during the summer vacation, so you have to be willing to go to my house." ”
"Don't worry, I'll have someone deliver the reward of 10,000 Galleons tomorrow...... And your Merlin Medal, though it shouldn't be revealed now, but the first ...... Clinches. ”
Fuggie pulled Rove and chatted eagerly, and the address to the boy also changed, Rove used to be his son and nephew, but now he is almost called a brother.

"Rove, come with me to the press conference, you caught Peter, I can't do it without you......" Fudge invited.
Rove shook his head and refused, "Mr. Fudge, I'm a little tired tonight and want to rest early." ”
"Alright then, you pay attention to your body."
After Fudge left the office regretfully, Professor McGonagall followed, leaving only Rove and Dumbledore in the room.
Rove walked over to his desk and sat down in his chair, and he asked softly:
"Professor Dumbledore, will Fudge be in trouble when he gets the news of Peter's death out there?"
"Yes...... But not much. Dumbledore bowed, "It's acceptable." ”
"Who do you think the wizard who infiltrated George and Fred's dormitory would be?" Rove asked in a low voice:
"Is it really Peter's companion who used the Polyjuice Potion, as Minister Fudge suspected?"
"I don't rule it out." Dumbledore said calmly, "By the way, Rove, I just heard some interesting things from the old headmasters. ”
The Headmaster paused for a moment and continued, "They said you came to my office with Shirley and Hermione not long ago?" ”
Rove nodded, and told him about his use of the time turner, as well as about the sniffing Patronus.
"The guardian directs you to the Screaming Shack?" Dumbledore crossed his fingers slightly, and he narrowed his eyes and said, "Interesting...... It's funny. ”
"Rove, I must warn you to be cautious about using Miss Granger's time turner, and don't use it as the first choice to solve your problem."
"I know, Professor." Rove nodded and continued, "Did you just go to the Forbidden Forest?" What's going on there? ”
"I met Tom and had some confrontations with him." Dumbledore said with a solemn expression:
"Rove, I have some guesses, but I can't tell you, I'm worried that my thoughts will affect your future choices."
Roff raised an eyebrow, Dumbledore was the first time he had been such an enigmatic.
The young man thought for a moment and asked, "Is the Forbidden Forest dangerous now?" ”
If it's too dangerous, he won't take Shirley there for a short time.
Dumbledore looked at Rove, blinked his blue eyes, and smiled:
"As long as you don't take several girls to the Forbidden Forest, there shouldn't be much danger.
By the way, Professor McGonagall was really angry this time, and she asked me to tell you that if you take Swinton and Miss Granger out on an adventure in the middle of the night, she will break your legs. ”
