Chapter 300: Unequal Friendship, The Mantis Stalks The Cicada
Harry discovered that he was a person who only cared about food but not about fighting.
I have been tricked by the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor so many times, but I still haven't learned my lesson, and I will still fall for it next time.
He suddenly remembered something Wayne said.
The only lesson humans can learn from history is that humans never learn lessons from history.
It’s so apt!
"Why!"
Harry looked at Lupin sadly and angrily: "I believe you so much, why did you lie to me and hang out with Black!"
"Didn't you say you were my father's best friend? You actually helped the person who killed him!"
"I didn't, Harry!" Blake said hurriedly after being helped up, wanting to explain, but Harry had already waved his wand again.
"Expelliarmus!"
Lupine shot two magic spells in succession. The first one collided with Harry's magic, and the second one hit Harry without any hindrance. However, an invisible barrier rose out of thin air, rebounding the magic spell and smashing it against the wall. A big hole emerged.
"Defense props?" Lupine was a little stunned, but Harry was well prepared and fired two more disarming spells, forcing Lupin to defend again and again.
"Shadow Binding!"
Harry suddenly growled, and Lupin felt a huge force coming from under his feet, pulling him staggering.
"As expected of James' son!"
Sirius's eyes flashed with admiration, but now was not the time to praise Harry.
Lupine had to worry about the cage in his hands, and Harry, relying on his magic props to only attack but not defend, temporarily suppressed Lupin. Sirius knew that he had to restrain Harry now in order to allow this confession to continue.
So, he transformed into a ferocious black dog and pounced on Harry and Ronald.
Ronald also woke up from this series of incidents and took out his wand to help Harry.
"Woof!"
Sirius yelled loudly, shocking Ronald and Harry. He first nimblely bit off Ronald's wand, then transformed into a human form and pointed the wand in his hand at Harry.
"Expelliarmus!"
Faced with the two men's attacks from the front and back, the protective shields were broken one after another. Harry ignored the head and tail, and his rhythmic attack was also disrupted.
Soon, when the last Iron Armor Curse was broken, Lupin deflected his attack with a spell. Sirius' disarming spell hit accurately and confiscated Harry's wand.
"Harry, you really look like James. No, when you were your age, James' disarming spells were not that good.
Sirius played with their wands and praised them without hesitation.
"You still have the nerve to mention him?" Harry roared: "You win! I misjudged the person, kill me now, just like you killed my parents!"
The smile on Sirius' face disappeared and turned into deep guilt.
Then, under the shocked eyes of Harry and Ronald, he threw their wands back.
The two caught it subconsciously, still unable to believe that Blake returned the wand to them so easily.
However, what shocked them even more was what happened later. Lupine's wand was raised, making a popping sound, and a rope shot out from the tip of the wand, tying Sirius tightly.
"Harry, Ronald, does this give us a chance to explain?"
Lupine said: "I hope you think about it calmly. If I collude with Sirius, these steps are completely unnecessary, and I can kill you directly.
Harry was completely confused. He looked at Sirius, who was also looking at him, with excitement and reminiscence in his eyes.
"What's the matter……"
"Moon-face, can you hurry up?" Sirius said impatiently: "Hurry up and change him back. I can't wait to kill him."
Ronald and Harry turned pale.
"Shut up! Don't call me that name." Lupine scolded: "I can't prove your innocence now, I have to verify what you said!"
Although, through Banban's various weird behaviors and unreasonable lifespan, he has already believed 70% of it, but as long as he doesn't see the final result, he will not believe it.
Sirius shrugged indifferently: "I haven't seen you for more than ten years, and your temper has grown a lot."
Seeing that he was honest, Lupine said to the two confused people:
"The first thing I want to say is that I was not Black's accomplice. I did not provide any help when he escaped from Azkaban or invaded the castle twice."
"On the night of the full moon, he came to the office and found me while I was weak after taking the wolfsbane potion."
Lupine slowly described the process.
He was also startled when he first saw Sirius, thinking that he was here to kill someone and silence him.
He should be the only person in the world who knows that Sirius is an Animagus.
But Sirius didn't take action, he just said a lot of words when he didn't have the strength.
First of all, he showed that he was not the murderer of James and Lily. Before the Loyalty Curse was signed, he and James changed the secret keeper to Peter Pettigrew. When he went to hunt down Peter, the other party blew up again. A street, took advantage of the chaos and escaped.
He only found out that Peter was still alive after seeing a photo of the Weasley family in the newspaper.
At first Lupine didn't believe these nonsense, but as Sirius revealed more and more of Scabbers's abnormal behavior, and when he invaded the dormitory before, he either found the wrong bed or was looking for Scabbers.
Lupine was a little doubtful.
Until the end of his period of weakness, Sirius still did not leave, but opened his arms calmly:
"If you don't believe me, you can kill me now and don't hand me over to those disgusting dementors."
"Then why didn't you come to me before?" Lupine asked.
"I had a helper before." Sirius said depressedly: "But it refused to help me bring Peter out, and I couldn't get the password "Song Neng takes the risk."
"Lupin, as long as you let me kill Peter, you can let me die the next second."
In the end, Lupine half-believed him and agreed to help him once, but after the plan was successful, Sirius had to surrender and let him determine Scabbers's identity.
After listening to this long explanation, Ronald was completely confused. He just kept repeating that Scabbers is just a mouse, not Peter Pettigrew.
Harry immediately retorted: "But Fudge said it, and Professor McGonagall admitted it."
"It was Peter Pettigrew who caught you. He wanted to avenge my parents, but you brutally killed him, along with thirteen innocent Muggles!"
Harry recalled the scene when he heard Fudge talking to several professors, tears welled up unconsciously, and he clenched the wand in his hand again.
Lupine realized something was wrong and quickly said: "No matter what, as long as it is a magic spell, I can make it return to its original form. Harry, can you wait a little longer?"
"If Blake lied to me, I would kill him myself."
"No! He's not Peter! He's just Scabbers!" Ronald suddenly shouted. Lupine was afraid that he would do something stupid again, so he disarmed his wand, then turned to the rat that screamed crazily in the cage, and slowly said: :
"The true form is revealed!"
The wand sprayed out blue light and injected it into the mouse's body. Its whole body trembled, and then it began to transform.
A head grew out, then thick limbs, the wooden cage was shattered, and a short, fat man stood on the ground, shrinking and wringing his hands.
"Peter...it's really you!" Lupin gritted his teeth..."Why don't you say hello when you meet an old friend?"
"Let me go, Lupin! Let me kill him!" Blake suddenly roared and saw Peter Pettigrew, "The scene of changing the secret keeper reappeared in his mind.
Strictly speaking, Harry was right.
It was indeed him who 'killed' James and Lily
"Remus John...little, Sirius, long time no see." Peter Pettigrew's little eyes kept looking at the door. Lupine noticed and tied him up unceremoniously.
"Harry, Ronald, do you believe it now?"
Harry swallowed and looked at Ronald unconsciously.
At this time, Ronald was completely stunned and his brain entered an overload state.
So... he eats, bathes, and sleeps with such a wretched man?
Thinking of the countless days and nights he had spent with Banban in his arms, Ronald looked at Peter Pettigrew's wretched appearance, and suddenly his stomach tumbled, and he actually vomited.
Harry looked at him pityingly.
If he had been sleeping with such a wretched man for so long, he would also...
No, he couldn't think about it anymore, his stomach was starting to feel uncomfortable.
Harry changed his mind, still looked at Lupin and Crazy Black with suspicion, and raised his own question:
"This only proves that Peter Pettigrew is still alive. Perhaps he is hiding in the Weasley house to avoid you."
Peter Pettigrew nodded desperately as if grasping a life-saving straw.
"Harry, you are as wise as your father. I am afraid of this murderer. The Black family is die-hard Death Eaters. "His brother is a Death Eater."
Then, he asked Ronald for help, "Kind little master, please save your poor Banban!"
"Ugh!"
Ronald vomited even more heartbreakingly.
"He is lying!" Sirius burst out with veins, "Yes! My brother is a Death Eater, what does that have to do with me? I have no connection with the Black family for a long time.
"I can testify." Lupine expressed support: "Sirius has not had a good relationship with his family since he was in school. He is the first Gryffindor of the Black family."
"After graduation, I almost got expelled without ever returning home."
"You are with him." Peter screamed: "You all want to kill me, you are the Dark Lord's lackeys!"
"Since when did you start calling him the Dark Lord too."
Lupine was not angry after being slandered, but showed a faint sarcastic smile, and the wand emitted green light:
"Don't worry, Peter, I know a lot of spells used for interrogation. Sooner or later you will tell the truth."
"No! You can't do this!" Peter looked at the green light in horror.
"Harry! Please help me, I am James's best friend!"
"Why do you have the nerve to talk about James, Peter!" Sirius roared.
Harry was completely confused and didn't know who to believe.
Just when Lupine was about to release the curse, Peter couldn't bear the psychological pressure and finally resorted to it.
"You have no idea how terrifying the Dark Lord is! He found me and asked me to provide information. If I don't tell you, I will die.
"Then go and die. Why did you kill James and Lily?"
"Why, why should I be the one who dies!"
Peter Pettigrew also burst out suddenly, staring at Sirius with his little eyes: "Do you and James regard me as friends?"
"No! You don't! You just need someone who will be responsible for the praise at the right time!"
"James needs me to flatter him when he plays, and he needs me to praise you when you succeed in a prank. In your eyes, I am not a friend, but a follower and an atmosphere team!"
"Be happy, you will
Treat me in a pleasant manner, but when you are in a bad mood..."
"Sirius, have you forgotten that James teased me for fun after he was so embarrassed at Lily's place?"
"Everything is not equal!"
There was silence in the whole place, and everyone was silent.
Harry listened to all this in disbelief. So his father was actually such a person?
Peter Pettigrew, isn't he playing the roles of Crabbe and Goyle?
"Peter..." Sirius' voice was dry: "Is this how you view us?"
"Isn't what I said the truth? Am I wronging you?"
"Remus John, don't think you are innocent."
The killing was crazy, the killing was completely crazy, Peter Pettigrew pointed the finger at Zuo Lu again:
"You never stop them, you just watch, what do you think you are in the eyes of James and Sirius?"
"They only see each other as equals, the eldest young masters of two pure-blood families, hehe..."
"You're just a tool to make them feel cool and awesome."
"A werewolf is a werewolf, otherwise why wouldn't you be chosen as the secret keeper?"
Lupine's pupils trembled.
"No, it's not like this 583." Sirius Black hurriedly retorted: "Remus John, the situation was special at that time, ten groups of werewolves..."
"It goes without saying, Sirius." Lupine said softly: "I understand your concerns. Werewolves are all Voldemort's men. This is normal.
"Peter, no matter what you say, it can't change the fact that you betrayed me."
Lupine quickly regained his composure: "Now that you admit it, it's easy to handle. Harry, you should believe us now, right?"
Harry nodded subconsciously.
Lupine untied the rope from Sirius's body, and as soon as he regained freedom of movement, Sirius rushed forward and punched and kicked Peter, making him scream in pain, and even took the Robin
The wand of grace.
Harry was startled and shouted quickly: "What are you going to do!"
"What to do?" Sirius smiled ferociously: "Of course, kill him and avenge James!"
"No, you can't kill him!"
Harry quickly cast a disarming spell, snatched the wand from Sirius' hand, and pulled him away from Peter.
"We can take him to the castle and hand him over to the dementors.
"He caused the death of both your parents!" Sirius roared.
"But you are innocent. If you kill him, no matter what, you will want Azkaban."
Harry gasped and stopped in front of Sirius: "Don't let yourself become a murderer for a bad person, my father must have thought so too.
"Harry..." Sirius' nose felt sore and his eyes became moist.
Lupine also sniffed.
"Then it's up to you." Sirius forced a smile: "We will take him to the castle."
Then, he looked at Peter fiercely: "If you dare to transform, I will kill you immediately."
Peter nodded quickly.
Seeing Ronald's disappointed look, Sirius walked over and patted him on the shoulder comfortingly.
"I'm sorry that you lost your pet because of me. I will give you another one when my charges are cleared."
"Really?" Ronald immediately resurrected with full health, "Then can I not have the rat?"
He now feels sick when he sees a mouse.
"Of course." Sirius smiled heartily: "You can have whatever you want."
Lupine refastened the rope to ensure that Peter couldn't break free, and Tuan used his wand to control him to float up.
Just as several people were preparing to return to the castle with different moods, the door opened first.
A ray of red light rushed in, hitting Lupin, knocking the wand out of his hand, and throwing the whole person high into the air.
Everyone was surprised, and Harry even used instinct to cast the spell.
A transparent barrier emerged, deflecting his spell. A figure walked in slowly.
"Snape!" Harry shouted in shock.
Snape ignored him, but looked around, and smiled sneer when he saw Sirius. 【013704408 Feilu 230212470】
"Is this another reunion of old classmates? How about adding me?"
"As a thank you, I will let the dementors give you a kiss...".
