Chapter 120: The Rat Appears

Dumbledore did not show up for the next few days, except for Carnot in the same room as Lupin in the Screaming Shack.

Lupin is in good shape, and even if he hasn't injected any more serum in the past few days, he has no signs of transformation.

"Seriously, I don't think I'll ever be a werewolf again." Lupin sat in the screaming shack and said happily.

"Observe for a few more months, and don't be so hasty. After all, this may affect the fate of many werewolves. Kano took a sip from his teacup.

Lupin nodded earnestly: "You're right, I'm too eager for a normal life. ”

After that, he sighed, "If James and... Alas. ”

"I already know, Remus!" A tall, thin figure rushed out of the darkness and put his arms around Lupin.

"I'm so happy for you!"

"Sirius?"

Lupin's wand was already in Sirius's soft underbelly, but Sirius hugged him unconcernedly, and kept hitting him on the back with his fist.

Lupin wrestled away from Sirius's arms, and in confusion lowered his wand, looking at the two in the room.

"I said a long time ago, it's your luck that you don't eat two spells today."

"Hmph, there's no way Lupin can attack me."

"Shut up and explain to me!" Lupin looked at Kano and Sirius and couldn't help but interrupt their conversation.

"Let me explain, Professor." Harry's figure stepped out of the darkness, cloak of invisibility in his hands.

Harry and Sirius explained the ins and outs of the matter to Lupin, and showed him the spotted photos and maps of the living spots, and Lupin let down his guard and hugged Sirius with tears in his eyes.

"I know, I know—" Lupin wiped tears from his eyes.

"It's all over, Remus." Sirius's eyes were red as well, "Now it's all left to deal with that traitor Peter, Kano said to leave it all to him." ”

Dumbledore's face appeared from the window, and he smiled and nodded at the group.

By now, all the people in Kano's plan who should know the truth are in place, and the plan has entered a critical stage.

Fudge has recently been so caught up in Sirius that he has been forced to issue a curfew in Hogsmeade.

After nightfall, the Dementors will roam the streets, and anyone outside will be caught by the Dementors.

This is a hornet's nest. Hogsmeade Village, as the second largest commercial area in the United Kingdom after Diagon Lane, was cut off by a fugitive during prime time for business.

Merchants complained, such as Mrs. Rostamer, the proprietress of the Three Broomsticks Bar, whose pretty face was crooked.

Who drinks in broad daylight? After another half a month of curfew, the bar will be closed!

Cano wasn't enough, and from time to time Pikelitsch went for a stroll around Godric's Hollow, Tumbledown Alley, and the like.

The only thing Fudge could do was to see Sirius wherever he saw it, and where he searched strictly for a few days, causing chickens and dogs to jump, and the people's resentment boiling.

In this way, Kano lit fires everywhere, and Fudge was exhausted.

Finally, before the Christmas holidays, "catching Sirius" went from being a concern for a few people to a major event that swept the British wizarding world.

Kano and the trio acted in front of Peter every day, and he visibly lost a lot of weight with the naked eye.

One night, Ron heard Peter scratching his cage.

"I think he's scared and wants to disappear like he did more than a decade ago."

At breakfast, Ron talked to a few people.

"It's the same old way, but it works." "But the cage I made is hard to open even if it's a spell, and I hope his teeth are still healthy." ”

"I'll take the last dose of medicine tonight."

"What kind of medicine?" Harry asked angrily.

"You'd better not know, lest you not get into the play." Kano said with a smile.

Tomorrow is the Christmas holidays, and the students are packing their bags and preparing to go home for the holiday with their loved ones.

Soon, the students fell asleep with a happy mood.

Canor closed the curtain and hummed a little song, and a mist filled the common room at some point.

Peter, as usual, was fed a sobering agent and could not sleep at all.

He suddenly noticed that a tall and thin figure appeared in the mist, getting closer and closer with heavy breathing, and two bloodshot eyes glowed green like wolves.

Peter banged the cage frantically, but the cage was still so tightly closed that it couldn't be opened.

Ron suddenly sneezed and woke up from his dream.

He was dazed and saw a man standing at the head of the bed, and rolled off the bed with a frightened howl.

Then, he saw that the rats in the cage began to deform.

A short man with a pointed nose, watery green bean eyes, and heavy dark circles broke through the cage, and then was firmly tied by the rope that the cage had turned into and fell to the ground.

"Help, help!"

The tall, thin figure rushed to the door, and everyone woke up, but only his back was seen.

"That's Sirius! Sirius is in school! ”

Peter shouted at the top of his lungs, and arched under the bed like a caterpillar.

Kano opened the curtain and gave a look to the stunned Ron and Harry.

Everything was as he expected, Peter found himself unable to escape from the cage, and Hogwarts, the safest in the wizarding world, could not keep Sirius out.

The Daily Prophet, the most influential media in the wizarding world, sings him as a hero every day, and Fudge gives a talk about him every now and then.

In this case, what kind of choice will he make?

"Call the Headmaster, you're Peter, aren't you?" Kano stepped forward to help him up, patting Harry to hurry out the door.

The hatred in Harry's eyes was almost impossible to hide, and if he stayed for a while, Kano was afraid that he would pounce on him and strangle Peter to death.

Soon, Dumbledore arrived. He lifted the ropes from Peter's body and comforted him with gentle words.

Fudge was ecstatic to enter Hogwarts after being pulled out of bed, having recently been unable to catch Sirius, which had severely damaged his political image.

But this time he found the "hero" Peter, which can completely make him raise his eyebrows.

"You've been protecting Harry, right, it's a shame, I'm going to apply for another Merlin Order of Merlin."

Fudge put his arms around Peter affectionately, and Peter was still shivering, not noticing what Fudge had said.

"Don't be afraid, Peter, Minister Fudge will keep you safe." Dumbledore spoke at the right time, Fudge immediately agreed, and Peter nodded busily and accepted his protection.

Another big manhunt has begun, and the whole of Hogwarts is brightly lit.

The students chattered about the amazing news, and as they left school for the holidays, Peter's news spread throughout the wizarding world.

At noon the next day, Dumbledore announced that he would invite Peter as a special guest at the Christmas dinner.

At this time, Kano sat in Snape's office, staring at the dead frog in the glass bottle with great interest.
