Chapter 252: Proof

"I just complimented you on your cleverness, Remus!"

Remus's aggressive attitude also made Sirius's temper rise, although he was held to his head by Remus with a wand, but he was no longer the attitude that he had just let him go, he raised his chin proudly, and stared at Remus's eyes unconvinced,

"You think Brian is covering for me and helping me infiltrate the castle, but why didn't you think about why he did it, huh? To kill Harry, Jaime and Lily's son, or is he going to help me go on a killing spree in the castle? ”

"Isn't this your purpose in escaping from Azkaban, kill them quickly, so that Voldemort can rise again one day, and you can..."

Remus blurted out, but halfway through his words, he realized something was wrong

Two weeks ago, Amosta had learned from Harry about their secret base, the secret passage under the Willows, and Sirius had followed Amosta back to Hogwarts that night.

For the entire half-month, Albus had been out of the castle for most of the time, and if Sirius and Amosta had been trying to hurt Harry, they would have succeeded a long time ago, and they were even far away now.

"Realized something was wrong, huh?"

Sirius keenly caught the hesitation in Remus's eyes, and he snorted angrily, not because of Remus Lupin's attitude towards him, but because of Amosta Blaine... It dawned on him that Amosta had probably wanted to get rid of him a long time ago, which was why he asked Remus if he wanted to adopt Lenny on the day of Remus's illness.

"I'll never be able to fathom the machinations in your head, Sirius!"

Remus said coldly, and suddenly, he took a few steps back, and the tip of the wand withdrawn from Sirius's head shot out a thin rope, and the rope quickly spun up and down around Sirius's body, and in the blink of an eye, he was tied firmly from head to toe.

"But I do want to hear what you're trying to argue with."

Lupin said with a cold expression.

Sirius's shriveled cheeks were also blackened, and he had done the same to himself the night he was found by Brian.

To be honest, telling the truth back then was not in line with my plan at all.

From the moment Azkaban successfully escaped from prison, his goal was to kill Peter, and he had absolute determination that no one could stop him, not even death.

But there were some things Sirius didn't want to face, and that was to meet the acquaintances of the year before avenging Jaime and Lily.

Not only because he couldn't believe that his former friends were still reliable, but also because... He couldn't face the fact that his stupidity had killed the Potters, and this guilt was why he didn't want to face those acquaintances, and he could tell them the truth, but at least, after getting his revenge!

However, Amosta Blaine... This young Slytherin-born wizard has screwed up all his plans!

"That traitor isn't me, Remus, it's Peter who leaked Jaime and Lily's whereabouts!"

Sirius finally whispered these words, and his words were full of resentment, both to Peter Pettigrew and to Amosta Blaine.

Sirius's roar fell on Remus's ears like thunder, and he was stunned, unconsciously, he pursed his lips,

"Impossible... Albus himself said that Jaime and Lily were unwilling to make him a secret, and that they wanted to use you... Peter, he's dead, isn't he, dead at your hands, so many Muggles have seen it..."

The next ten minutes are time to solve the puzzle.

Sirius, bound by rope, lay on the ground, talking about the unknown facts, this time, he already had experience, and without waiting for Remus to ask, he took the initiative to talk about things, such as why he was willing to stay in Azkaban for twelve years, why he suddenly escaped from there, how he escaped... and, the cause and effect of his arrest by Bryan.

Sirius said all this, perhaps because he had told Brian about it all over again, and when he said it again, he felt a little numb.

“... In the end, Brian reluctantly agreed not to give me to Dumbledore or you... I can't use my Animagus form anymore because I'll be recognized by you, so Bryan turned me into a cat and brought me back to Hogwarts--"

Sirius said tiredly.

The ashes that fluttered in mid-air finally landed, and the moment they touched the masonry, the last bit of brilliance in their lives erupted.

Remus stared intently at Sirius, and at some point, the hatred in his eyes vanished, replaced by confusion.

How ridiculous the reality is.

Remus thought wearily, he had been haunted by twelve years of pregnancy, and the events of that year... This would be the result.

It wasn't Sirius who killed Jaime and Lily, he was innocent, but the truth wasn't much better than it was, was it?

"It's just your side of the story, Sirius, there's no evidence to prove it--" After a long silence, Remus shook his head and said, "I can't find your flaws, Sirius, but the stakes are high, and you have to show proof that what you're saying isn't an elaborate lie--"

Remus actually already believed, he just... Feeling helpless and dazed... War is cruel, but people's hearts are even more cruel.

"If you want to see my memories, take it, Remus--"

Sirius lay on the ground as if he had been drained of his muscles, and he didn't even have the strength to be angry in the face of Remus's distrust... Of course, he didn't have the right to be angry with Remus, after all, this is the root of all tragedy, from his stupid suggestion.

"You know, Sirius--"

Remus rubbed his stiff cheek with his palm,

"I'm not as good at telekinesis as Amosta, and if you're okay, Snape is..."

Seeing Sirius's abrupt change of expression, Lupin changed his words,

"I can write a letter to Albus, and he must have a way of proving the truth of what you said."

"If you have to, Remus--"

Sirius went from lying on his side to lying flat, staring at the dark brown ceiling and saying lifelessly,

"Then go and call Dumbledore, maybe Brian is right, I'm a hopeless idiot, maybe it's time to get this over..."

Hearing this, Remus suddenly relented.

The once high-spirited, gifted bigfoot seemed to be dead, and now what appeared in front of him was just a shell driven by hatred.

"Okay--"

Remus suddenly sighed, Sirius was an extremely proud person, he could imagine how much Sirius had suffered in his heart over the years, which is why he was so obsessed with slashing Peter... He wanted to do the same himself, kill Peter with his own hands, and let this evil end in the hands of the four of them, so that Peter's filthy soul would not harm others, including Albus Dumbledore.

"Don't tell Albus just yet--"

Remus took a deep breath, and with a wave of his wand, he swept Sirius, who was staring at his decision in surprise, to the bed, and then, he threw himself at his desk, pulled out a piece of parchment, and began to write, two minutes later, Remus folded the parchment with Juan Xiu's handwriting and stuffed it into an envelope.

"I'm sorry, I can't let you go just yet... I wrote a letter to Amosta and asked him to come back for a short time and confirm what you said...

Well, pass out! ”

After a stun spell had brought Sirius down, Remus checked again that the rope was strong, and then hurried out the door, now he was going to the owl shack to deliver the letter to Amosta.

The ban was lifted, and the door creaked open.

Before leaving the door, Remus's footsteps suddenly stopped, he turned his head to look at Sirius, who had passed out on the bed, and suddenly, pursed his lips and showed a pale smile,

"Anyway ... Welcome back, Big Footboard--"
