Chapter 278: Dangerous Person
Amosta was slightly disappointed when he saw Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle once again walking into the brightly lit auditorium, with the pure and mysterious starry sky reflected on the ceiling against the late winter and early spring.
However, he quickly adjusted his mentality, and while a few little wizards were not paying attention, he touched two potato cakes and hid them in his sleeve, leaned on the marble door frame that entered the auditorium, and chewed slowly.
There were more young wizards in the auditorium than there were at noon, and after a while, Harry and Ron reappeared in his sight, but Hermione didn't follow them, and Amosta blindly guessed that this hard-working little witch had already started his study plan for the second half of the school year.
Noticing that it wasn't just Amosta who showed up Harry, but also Oliver Wood at the Gryffindor table.
"Hey, Harry!"
The captain of the Gryffindor team squeezed away the chair behind him with a thud, and he jumped over the crowd and hurried in front of Harry,
"How was Christmas?"
"Except for being forced by Filch to clean every bathroom from the first floor to the eighth floor, the rest is not bad." Harry said grumblingly.
"Oh, well--"
Harry's answer embarrassed Wood, but after taking a deep breath, he steered the conversation to Quidditch,
"I thought about it during the holidays, Harry, and I've been thinking about it since the last game, if the Dementors come back in the next game. I mean we can't afford it, uh, sure, I'm sure Professor Bryan has been effective in deterring them, but how to put it"
Wood paused, looking a little embarrassed.
"Oh, about this--"
Even if he cleaned the toilets in the entire Hogwarts again, Harry didn't want to lose his qualification to the competition, he quickly said,
"I've been following Professor Lupin since the last time to see how to deal with them, I thought. I can probably handle it, I mean if there aren't too many Dementors. ”
"Ah, that couldn't be better--" Wood's hesitant expression faded and his expression brightened, "if that's the case—I don't really want to lose you as a Seeker, Harry, and if you ordered a new broomstick." ”
"He doesn't need to order, Wood," Ron finally found a chance to throw out the hot news, "Harry received a firebolt at Christmas. ”
"But I can't use him just yet."
Before Wood could scream in surprise, Harry took the initiative to explain the problem,
"Professor Lupin thinks that this firebolt was given to me by Sirius Black, and that he is said to be chasing me, and throwing me down from mid-air is the easiest way to do it, and Professor Lupin thinks that I had better not use this broom until it has been examined by Professor Blake."
"Have you been to him?"
Wood couldn't wait to ask.
Harry and Ron looked at the empty seats at the faculty table next to Snape, and Harry said sullenly,
"We've been squatting on him, but he hasn't come back yet, hey, I really wish he could be as 'dedicated' as Filch."
Amosta, leaning against the door frame, rolled her eyes.
"But today when I was talking to Cedric about Quidditch tactics, I heard him say that Professor Bryan had returned to school, and it was said that he had returned early in the morning, and Cedric saw him greet Professor Sprout at breakfast."
Harry immediately looked surprised, he was about to say something, but Malfoy, who was walking this way, made him close his mouth in alarm.
And Amosta didn't listen to how Harry arranged himself, and followed Malfoy upstairs.
Malfoy's pockets were bulging with a large bag of food, and Amosta smiled slightly at the sight of this.
Along the way, the three controlled little ones were very alert, picking out the off-the-beaten-path routes, trying to avoid the occasional little wizard going up and down, all the way to the West Tower, and hurried into the blackened owl shed.
Amosta stood on the wind-swept corridor, bathed in the cold moonlight, his expression calm.
Unexpected, but reasonable.
It was dinner time, and it was rush hour to return to school, and no young wizard would choose to send a letter at this time, but the wizard who controlled them was wary, and he had the big guys Crabbe and Goyle block the door, leaving Malfoy alone in the shed.
Seeing this, Amosta slowly raised the height of his float, and he stepped out of the corridor, suspended a thousand feet in the air, letting the wind wriggle his robes, and not moving, his eyes falling on the owl hut covered with a fence of light spots on the ground.
At last, except for the faint, squirming of the owl hut that cooed excitedly from the dawn of the night, a mouse crawled out of the darkness under the shelf and appeared in Amosta's sight.
The rat was extremely vigilant, and instead of approaching Malfoy, it swooped past Malfoy's feet like a normal, frightened mouse, and flew into a pile of brooms on the left hand side of the mouth, and disappeared.
It was a few more minutes before the rat poked out the head of the thief, its whiskers quivering slightly in the air, its black eyes the size of mung beans staring around, and if it sensed the wind and grass, it would flee through the hole in the back of the broomstick.
Amosta watched all this quietly, and couldn't help but feel a little sad and a little admiration in his heart.
Sadly, this guy named Peter Pettigrew pushed Harry's parents into the abyss for his own safety, but in the end, he put himself in this situation, so what did he get in the end when he made up his mind to betray his friends and join Voldemort?
And admire Peter Pettigrew's desire to survive.
In order to survive, not only did the rat that had been by Ron's side for so long not show its stuff, but now, it was hiding in this shed full of owl feathers and droppings, just to live.
Compared to Sirius before the misunderstanding was clarified, Amosta believed that Peter was dangerous.
Like a venomous snake with great endurance hidden in a dark cave, he is a very good hunter, waiting for unsuspecting prey to pass in front of him, and when the prey lets its guard down, he delivers a fatal blow.
Amosta didn't know what happened to Peter in the original time and space, but if he wanted to evaluate, without the blessing of the protagonist's aura, a little wizard like Harry, even with the addition of reckless Sirius and Remus, who always behaved a little unsatisfactory at critical moments, might be killed by a wizard like Peter.
Of course, without Dumbledore interfering.
The revered Headmaster of Hogwarts did have a high faith, but he was also a true conspirator.
After tossing and turning for a long time, Peter seemed to finally confirm that tonight was as safe as it had been for more than two months, and he squeaked a few times impatiently, and then Malfoy took out the lemon meringue and browned pork chops wrapped in a napkin in his pocket.
"Today, my father, through Professor Snape, visited Professor Blaine—"
Malfoy 'faithfully' fulfilled his accusations, and he told Mouseblob everything that had happened today.
"I wasn't there when they talked, but then Professor Blaine told Professor Snape that my father was expecting Professor Blaine to help with a little bit of trouble—"
Lucius came to Amosta Blaine to help solve the problem, how did this happen?
Spotted stopped eating, spinning his brain as fast as he could, but soon realized that he didn't have to guess.
Creak! Tell me everything you know! )
"-- At the end of July last year, Greyback broke into my house with a couple of werewolves, risking my father's lives and my mother's lives, I eavesdropped on my parents' conversation, and Greyback threatened my father with my and my mother's safety, hoping that my father would help him find a wizard named Golden Viper."
Chirping!
The mouse's small eyes showed a sudden realization.
Although it has been absent from the wizarding world for a long time, it can still listen to Arthur Weasley's mouth and hear something very valuable when he is at the Weasley's house.
Arthur Weasley doesn't talk about the Underworld in front of his children, but when he is alone with his wife, he occasionally shares things about the Underworld with his wife, and he does hear the name 'Golden Viper' from their conversations, and he knows about the conflict between him and the werewolves!
