Chapter 154: Negotiation

"Shafiq's voice!" Hearing Ivey's voice, Tate instinctively flinched, "-No, you're not here" and then reacted, and the location shown on the map of the living spot did not change.

Tate looked back at the fireplace. I saw that the orange-red flames vaguely formed a figure.

"Peter Pettigrew," the figure began

"Shafiq-san~ I really admire your name for a long time," Tate said with a stupid laugh

"Peter Pettigrew? Isn't he dead? ... Could it beβ€”" Luna's face finally showed surprise on her face, which had been doing nothing.

"Luna, I'll explain it to you again." Ivy steadied Luna first, then said to Tate, "You've already lost"

"Hmphβ€”I don't think so," Tate smirked, "though the Men of Magic's rice buckets hadn't been able to catch Blake the other day. But his Animagus form has been exposed, how long can he hide? ”

"Hah- looks like you haven't found out yet"

"Found what?"

"I'll be honest - Blake has been hidden in the Chamber of Secrets by Harry. Not to mention the Ministry of Magic, even Dumbledore couldn't find him. ”

"The Chamber of Secrets? He disappeared for so long yesterday, it turned out that he went to the secret room. But so what? I also know about the Chamber of Secrets, and I can write another letter to the Ministry of Magic. I'm sure they're interested in Harry's ability to speak snakes. ”

"Cutβ€”β€”! You say he can speak snakes, he can speak snakes? If I had said in the Daily Prophet that Peter Pettigrew was still alive and hiding in Hogwarts. Will your group of colleagues who used to be in the same unit believe it? ”

"You got it?" His expression suddenly became ugly

"And thanks to Blake. According to him, your brothers in Azkaban talk about you all day long. ”

β€œ...”

For a moment, Tate's face was cloudy.

"How's it - although you exposed Sirius and took Lupin, the situation did not develop as you expected, and the initiative was on our side." Ivey continued to taunt

"Maybe it was before, but you shouldn't have told me that." Tate sneered, "Now you listen, if you spread the news of me, I will kill this boy immediately!" And then attack everyone here indiscriminately! ”

"Heh~ The reaction is the same as I thought" Ivy knows Pettigrew very well and knows what kind of character he is, "But this kind of bluffing trick doesn't work for me." Not to mention anything else, you dare to kill someone right under Dumbledore's nose? You kill one and I'll see. ”

"Ivey!" Luna shouted hurriedly

"Don't worry, he doesn't have the guts." Ivy said slowly, "Don't look at him as if he is dying together, in fact, he is more desperate than anyone else." Even if it really comes to that time, there is a high probability of running away. ”

"I am not as brave as Jaime and the others. But if you're doomed to death, you don't mind pulling a few pads. Peter did not refute

"Don't say it so tragically, this doesn't match your personality. Andβ€”I'm here today with good news for you."

"Good news? - Humph! What's the good news, help me kill Blake? Tate scoffed

"This time, I can let you go"

"Let's go! You can still put it if you can go! Tate looked furious, "They now think I'm a traitor, and if I am discovered, there is only one way to die!" You simply don't know their means! ”

"It's none of my business," Ivy said lightly, "If you insist on staying here, I guarantee you won't survive tomorrow." ”

"Then I'll blow it up! Everyone's doomed! Tate's face was hideous, his eyes flashed with a fierce light, the meridians of his neck and forehead trembled, and his immature features were distorted by anger. The exaggerated face is like a cannibal ghost.

"..."Ivy was unimpressed, "You know, Peter. Your acting skills are really good. No wonder you can hide from the sky and let Sirius take the blame for you for so long. But - Peter, I repeat one last time: you don't have the courage to fight hard. Even if it's a mortal situation, you'll do whatever it takes to escape. ”

He continued, "So, you don't have to act in front of me. The opportunity has been given to you, and now I just need an answer. ”

β€œ... What do I have to give? Peter knows that there is no such thing as a free lunch

"I have a letter with a photo spell. You're going to show up and tell the truth about the death of Harry's parents. ”

"This is driving me to a dead end..."

"Don't talk nonsense! Now is not to discuss with you, this is the condition for letting you go. If you don't want to, you can do it when I haven't been here. ”

Tate was silent. He lowered his head, the strange light in his eyes flickering wildly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Is that all there is to it?" After a long time, he looked up and asked

The "Living Map Stay" can't fall into Voldemort's hands

"Impossible!" Without even thinking about it, Tate immediately replied, "This is a guarantee of my life."

"It's still the same sentence" Ivy listened, still indifferent, "I put forward the conditions, and it's up to you whether I agree or not." ”

"Oh, dear Ivey, negotiate with sincerity. I'm a person who doesn't even believe in myself, and now you're making me believe in your verbal promises? Let's be clear, if there is no security, I would rather run away with the map. ”

β€œ... So what do you want? ”

"Unbreakable Oath Curse!"

"You want to swear to me?" Ivy frowned

"It's not me," Tate's expression suddenly became playful. He pointed to himself, "It's this boy."

β€œ... There's no need to get him involved."

"Haha-" Tate suddenly laughed maniacally, "Dear Ivey, like Ron, I've known you for over two years. I know exactly how strong you are. I will never expose myself to you! And - if you really want to let me go, don't worry about his safety. ”

"Hmph~ It's quite thoughtful," Ivy sneered

"No way, of course you have to be careful when dealing with a horrible guy like you."

"I can grant your request. But first know the contents of the oath"

"Naturally," Tate nodded triumphantly, "It's simple, just one thing: help me get out of Hogwarts safely." ”

"! All I said was that I didn't intervene in arresting you, and I didn't help that statement, let alone keep you safe. To change"

"Oh~ I thought it meant that," Tate smiled defiantly

"It's a big difference. If you are taken by a wild cat halfway, you can only be considered unlucky, and it has nothing to do with me. ”

"You can change it. But that's not the case," Tate thought for a moment, "not to interfere with my actions in any way. ”

"I'll ask first. If the oath is kept, when are you going to leave? ”

"Stand and go"

"Let's be specific: don't interfere with your escape from Hogwarts before twelve o'clock tonight."

"Yes. There is another rule: keep my actions confidential, and do not disclose any of my information in any form or by any method such as cats, dogs, envelopes, etc. ”

"I want to add the sentence just now"

"No problem," Tate readily agreed, "then we're on a consensus now."

"Not really. You'll need to complete the photo letter and hand in the map of the live spot before you can take the oath. ”

"Don't even think about it!" If you don't have a living map, you might not know how you died, "You have to swear first!" ”

"Then add one more thing," Ivy didn't bother to talk to him, and set these two as triggers for the oath. That way everyone can rest assured."

"It's best this way"

"Then I'll have Luna come over and get the letter now," Ivy said lightly, giving Luna a snap of the look.

"Oh-okay, I'll be right away," Luna looked and quickly walked towards the exit.

"Our Witnesses can't go," Tate called out, "she knows so much that I have to be a Witness to be reassured." ”

"It's a pity~" Ivy sighed secretly

"Let this dog go and get it~ By the way, bring Crook Hill back too. It's easy for me to be distracted here. ”

"Just do as you say. Luwei will send me the letter later, and you will contact me when you are ready. With that, Ivy prepared to disconnect.

"You can't go," Tate stopped him, "you're now consciously connected to this place, and you can't communicate with Miss Ethel over there. If you're gone, you won't be able to keep it a secret for me. ”

"It's so troublesome," Ivy said expressionlessly

"Be careful"

"Luna, you write a letter to Lu Wei. Ask Betty to prepare a photo letter. ”

"Okay," Luna nodded. Then find a pen and paper on the cabinet.

"I'm done, I'm going to read it."

"Whatever you want"

With a half-ring, Lou Wei left the Ravenclaw break room with the envelope.

...

Soon after, Lu Wei brought back a photo letter.

"Let the little girl put the letter at the door of the boy's dormitory. No wands," Tate said

Luna heard this and looked at Ive.

"It's fine. The wand is in Tate's hand and he is no threat to you. ”

"Hmm" Luna replied, taking the envelope from Lu Wei's mouth and calmly walking towards the dormitory building.

In a moment, Luna came down.

"I've got the envelope. Give me some time," Tate said

"It doesn't matter~ I'll wait until dawn when you record it. But one thing to warn you about is that I am not very patient, and if the content does not satisfy me, the transaction will have to be voided. ”

β€œ..... I see."

Peter didn't keep him waiting. It didn't take long for Luna to retrieve the letter.

"Do you want to inspect the goods?"

"Of course," Ivy motioned for Luna to open the letter

Luna complied. I saw a short and obscene figure reflected from the letter. He spoke slowly, telling a secret story that had been sealed for a long time.

"There's no problem with the content," Ivy said flatly after listening to it.

He already knew the truth, so he was very calm. But Luna on the side couldn't. After learning what Peter had done, she had never been shocked, and she let out a rare scolding, "Shameless! ”

"Oh~ you're still young, little girl. When you've seen the Dark Lord's abilities, you'll be like me. ”

"Don't make excuses, you're just having a low floor." Ivey said dismissively, "When will it start?" ”

"Right now. The location was at Lupin's office, and Luna and Tate went together. Mr. Shafiq, as soon as you are out of this state, you must rush over immediately. I'll watch you on the map. Since you're not good at magic, as long as you stay in the room for more than ten seconds or talk to anyone on the road, then I'm going to have to reconsider our deal. ”

"I know what to do"

"That's good. Let's get started."

Ivey's consciousness returned to his body

"What did you say?" Betty could only see the movements of a few people through Best

"Can't you hear me?" Ivey walked towards the exit

"I can't listen to the voice directly, I need it to be around and talk to me." Betty replied

"Hmm" Ivy nodded, then "Call the Gods!" ”

The silver bull appears indoors. He himself walked straight out of the break room.
