Chapter 144: Two Pettigrews, Peter
Two broomsticks suddenly rose into the air.
Rove rode the firebolt alone, and Shirley and Hermione rode the improved broomstick, and the three of them sped towards the sky.
Sitting on the broom, Rove also sighed a lot.
He had thought for a long time about how Voldemort and Peter had gotten the time turner.
Like Quirrell infiltrating Gringotts, violently invading the Department of Mysteries; Or, like Harry did when he infiltrated the Ministry of Magic, he used Polyjuice Potion to sneak in......
Rove conceived many plans, all of which focused on the Department of Mysteries, except for Hermione, who was beside him.
Maybe it's dark under the lights, right?
It can only be said that first controlling the Silent Man of the Department of Mysteries, and then taking the time turner from Hermione in the name of insecurity, is indeed an extremely clever move.
Shirley asked aloud, "Rov, where are we going to find Saul Crocker?" ”
"Hogsmeade Village." Rove sped up and replied, "Fudge said he was going there to reconcile the Dementors with the villagers. ”
Hermione, who was sitting behind Shirley, hesitated for a moment and asked:
"Rove, since Voldemort and Peter got the time turner, it's already a doomed thing, and we can't stop them if we chase them, right?"
"That's right, they got the time turner, and it was indeed predestined." Rove said in a deep voice: "But it doesn't have to be this time!" ”
"We may or may not be able to stop it, but we have to try it before we know the result."
It's one thing to be able to stop it, but if you don't even stop it, just give up, that's not Rove's character!
"Even if we can't stop Voldemort and Peter, we can't let them take the time-turner so easily."
Rove narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance, the mountain breeze in early spring was still cold, blowing the young man's sideburns and hair flying wantonly, and he said with a grim expression:
"They always have to pay a price!"
A simple sentence made the hearts of the two girls swaying and stirring.
Shirley stared at Rove's back, and no matter what he decided, she would probably just follow silently...... Even if it's dangerous.
Hermione, who always wanted to win against Rove, was also extremely admired, and Gryffindor students always liked to talk about "courage", but when it came to courage, none of them could compare to Rove.
Hermione stared at the boy in a daze, a yearning on her face that she might not even have realized.
Two broomsticks soon arrived in the skies above Hogsmeade.
"Stay here, and if Peter shows up, chase after him." "Remember, don't get too close," Rove advised. ”
After the explanation, Rove circled for a moment on his firebolt, and when he found Fudge's carriage, he fell rapidly.
At the door of the three broomsticks, there were two Aurors, who were also startled by the flying broomsticks wrapped in wind and thunder.
They looked up at the sky, so fast broomsticks...... That's too high, isn't it?
A middle-aged Auror poked his companion with his elbow and asked curiously:
"Kabo, you always brag about how fast your improved broomstick is...... How does it compare to this one? ”
Cabo is a broomstick enthusiast who has ridden all kinds of broomsticks on the market, and he just glanced at the sky and said softly:
"Half a pound versus eight ounces."
"Five-five?"
"Tlos, that's half a pound of gold, my improved broomstick...... Up to eight ounces of scrap iron. Cabo sighed and said, "It's far from it." ”
“……”
"Is the gap so big?" Tlos was stunned.
"Listen to this pop...... It was as if lightning streaked across the sky...... Tsk, one must be a fire bolt! Cabo put his head in his hands and exclaimed:
"It's really rich, I can't afford to buy a handful of wages for several years."
While the two were still guessing the owner of the broomstick, they saw the firebolt rushing straight in front of them with a whistling sound of breaking through the air.
The fire bolt hovered two meters above the ground, and on top of the broom, sat a handsome young man in a black robe, who asked politely:
"Excuse me, is Minister Fudge in there? I'm looking for him urgently. ”
Cabo and Tlos immediately recognized the boy as Rove Scamander, who appeared on the front lines of the Daily Prophet every day.
"Mr. Scamander, the Minister is in the house talking to Ms. Rosmerta about work." Cabo asked, "Shall I inform you?" ”
"Since there is an urgent matter to find the minister, what else do you want to report?!"
Tlos lectured Kabo, and when he looked at Rove again, a smile suddenly appeared on his face:
"Mr. Scamander, I'll take you in at once?"
"Okay." Rove nodded and said, "May I ask if you are ......?"
Tlos had already pushed the door open, and said with a smile on his face, "Just call me Tlos." ”
"Thank you, Mr. Tlos." Rove jumped off his firebolt, picked up his broomstick, and strode towards the bar.
When the two of them were far away, Cabo couldn't help but give himself a slap in the face.
The teenager was recently rumored to be the youngest recipient of the Order of Merlin, and even Minister Fudge treated him with courtesy...... I don't know, it's going to be the second Dumbledore.
I have to report it myself...... It's so unlikely!
Rove followed Tlos into the bar, and saw that Fudge was drinking while Miss Rothmerta sat beside him.
Fudge raised his glass and said drunkly, "Rove, why are you here?" Come for a drink too? ”
Rove narrowed his eyes, looked around, and said, "Mr. Fudge, what about Saul Crocker?" ”
"Just went to the bathroom." Fudge frowned and said, "You have something to do with him." ”
"I'm in a hurry to ask him." Rove directly pulled out his wand, tilted his head and said, "Lady Rothmerta, please help me lead the way." ”
Mrs. Rosmerta was startled when she saw that Rove had drawn his wand, and hurried back.
Fudge frowned as well, and hurriedly got up to follow.
Walking to the bathroom, Rove's wand was aimed directly at the wooden door, and he whispered, "Alajo Cave open!" ”
The door creaked open, and Mrs. Rosemerta froze in place, seeing two men huddled in the cramped latrine.
Saul Crocker and ...... Peter Pettigrew.
Peter Pettigrew, holding the time-turner in his hand, heard the door open and immediately swung his wand, blasting a hole in the wall.
He ran away.
Saul Crocker raised his wand and aimed it at Rove.
The boy's head tilted to the right, and after dodging the spell, he jumped up on his tiptoes and struck a knee against Crocker's abdomen.
Crocker flew out with a bang, breaking through the wall and slamming on the road outside the bar.
Two people flew out in a row, so frightened that the pedestrians on the road trembled and fled in all directions.
Rove glanced at the unconscious Crocker, then looked up again, his eyes wandering the streets, and he could no longer see Peter.
Rove waved his wand and said, "Fire bolts are flying!" ”
A broomstick burst through the air, and he rolled over and mounted it, flying straight into the sky, leaving only Fudge, Tlos, and Lady Rosmerta limp on the ground.
As soon as the cold wind blew, Fudge, who was still slightly drunk, suddenly sobered up, he rubbed his cheeks and said:
"That's the one who just ran away...... Peter Pettigrew? ”
Tlos was stunned and said, "It seems to be him." ”
Fudge and Tlos looked at each other, wasn't he already dead?
"Minister, what's next?" Tlos asked.
Fudge came back to his senses, he didn't know why Peter had come back from the dead, but he still commanded, "Hurry up and summon the Dementors to chase after him!" ”
Rove flew high into the air on a firebolt, and he circled for a moment, and soon saw Shirley and Hermione.
The boy flicked his broomstick and flew swiftly towards the two, and it only took half a minute for him to catch up with them, and he asked in a loud voice:
"Did you keep up with Peter Pettigrew?"
Shirley and Hermione glanced at each other, Shirley pointed to the distance, and said in a strange voice:
He ...... There they are! ”
Rove looked at Shirley's finger and was momentarily stunned, he saw two wizards standing in a wasteland.
One is Peter.
Another......
Also Peter.
