Chapter 317: Azkaban Prison No. 3, Return Of An Old Friend

Dumbledore solemnly buried Regulus' body and made his promise again.

"I guarantee on Dumbledore's name that Regulus will recover."

This time, he emphasized his tone.

If Snape can do it, everyone will be happy, but if he can't

Dumbledore has a backup plan.

Big deal...just find Grindelwald again.

Once raw, twice cooked.

Ever since he first stepped into the tower, Dumbledore found that his bottom line had been quietly lowered a lot.

At least there is a place to turn to Grindelwald, and he won't hesitate like before.

"I'll go with you." Sirius clenched his fists.

"I'm afraid not." Dumbledore shook his head and said in the face of Sirius' disappointed eyes: "If it's for Regulus's good, you'd better not meet Snape, otherwise, with your temper..."

Sirius lowered his head dejectedly.

Dumbledore looked at Wayne again.

To be honest, he wanted to take Wayne with him.

Although to some extent, Snape hates Wayne more than Sirius, one thing is undeniable, that is, Wayne always has a way to deal with Snape.

In the 'fight' between the two, Snape, as a professor, was always at the disadvantage.

However, he still planned to try it himself first, and if it didn't work, he would ask Wayne to take action.

Suddenly, Sirius' expression changed slightly and he suddenly coughed: "Kreacher, go prepare lunch. Wayne has just consumed a lot of magic power and needs to eat something good to replenish his strength."

Wayne looked confused.

Who said I want to eat at your place?

Kreacher bowed his head obediently and disappeared into the living room with a snap.

After what happened just now, in the heart of this old elf, Wayne's status has surpassed that of Sirius, his master.

"Dumbledore, you can speak now."

Sirius stared at him. It was Kreacher who Dumbledore had used special means to get him away just now.

"There are some things I didn't want you to know." Dumbledore looked at the note that was still tightly held in Sirius' hand with confusion.

"But...now that you have seen Regulus's last words, it is too late to say anything. There are some pieces of advice I must explain in advance."

Lupine recalled the contents of his last words and quickly guessed that Dumbledore was referring to...

"Horcrux?"

"That's right." Dumbledore nodded lightly: "This is Voldemort's biggest secret, and it's also the reason why he didn't die after being hit by the rebounded Killing Curse."

He shook his head with emotion: "Regulus's wisdom is definitely no less than that of the top Ravenclaw. With just one year of contact, he can discover the secret of Voldemort's efforts.

"This is something I haven't been able to do."

"I won't explain too much about what a Horcrux is specifically, but you must keep it secret about Regulus and the Horcrux."

"Voldemort is a confident man. He believes that no one knows the secret of Horcruxes, and no one knows that he made Horcruxes. This is our intelligence advantage."

Lupine and Sirius both realized the seriousness of the problem and nodded seriously.

"We'll keep an eye out."

"That's good." Dumbledore smiled happily: "I'm going back to school first. I'll contact you if there is any progress on Regulus' side.

The three of them escorted Dumbledore out of the door.

Before leaving, Dumbledore asked Wayne to inform him after he finished handling the Horcruxes.

Half an hour later.

Kreacher prepared a simple lunch, and Wayne reluctantly took a few bites.

The craftsmanship is really poor.

After the meal, Sirius was about to keep Regulus's locket, but was stopped by Wayne.

"I think you should keep the parchment for yourself, and as for the locket... leave it to Kreacher."

"Why?" Sirius looked at him puzzled.

"After all, the one who has taken care of Regulus for the longest time is Kreacher, and without him, we wouldn't know everything Regulus has done." Wayne explained: "He has the qualifications."

Under Kreacher's expectant gaze, Sirius thought for a moment and finally agreed.

He handed over the locket.

"Kreacher, from now on, he belongs to you."

"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master Lawrence." Kreacher burst into tears and held the pendant lamp in his arms like a treasure.

"Don't thank me in a hurry. I have a few questions to ask you."

Wayne squatted down and Kreacher looked at him confused.

"Do you know who the murderer of your little master is?"

"Yes...it's the Dark Lord." After shrinking for a long time, Kreacher still said the name.

"Yes, it seems your mind is not completely confused yet."

Wayne continued to ask: "Although Narcissa Malfoy and Bellatrix Lestrange are married, according to the contract between the house elf and the master's family, you will not obey their orders. Bar?"

Kreacher nodded, Narcissa and Bella were biological sisters, and they were also Sirius's cousin.

Their orders were not as high priority as Sirius's, but Kreacher had to obey them as long as there was no conflict.

"Wayne, isn't Bella locked up in Azkaban?" Sirius asked strangely.

"You are the only one allowed to escape. What if others escape too? This is called nip in the bud." Wayne said angrily, and then continued to talk to Kreacher.

"Remember, these people are all Death Eaters. Although Regulus once was one, he turned from darkness to light, and he and Voldemort are already enemies."

"Bella and Narcissa Malfoy are also considered accomplices in his death. Are you going to follow the orders of your enemy?"

Kreacher's eyes immediately revealed the light of hatred.

"Kreacher knows! Kreacher will not listen to their orders in the future!"

"No, that's not what I meant." Wayne shook his head: "I mean, if they ask you to do anything in the future, you have to tell Sirius."

"Spy?" Sirius instantly understood what Wayne meant and became excited.

"This is a good idea, Kreacher. I order you. What Wayne just said represents what I mean. You must implement it."

"yes!"

Hogwarts.

After leaving the Black ancestral home, Dumbledore returned to school.

In fact, Dumbledore has a home in Godric Valley, but because of many unpleasant things that happened there, he has not been back for a long time.

For Dumbledore, the Headmaster's office was more like home.

Well, there is just a little guy who always wants to knock his house away.

Entering the castle, Dumbledore did not go directly back to the headmaster's office, but went to Snape's office.

Approaching the door, he could already faintly hear the screams coming from inside the house.

The old man's expression remained unchanged and he knocked on the oak door.

"Severus, do you have time now?"

The screams stopped suddenly, and Snape's faint voice came out.

"three minutes."

Dumbledore waited patiently.

Three minutes later, Snape opened the door and welcomed him in. Everything was as usual in the room, and there was no one else except Snape.

Dumbledore wisely did not mention the strange noise just now, but got down to business.

After listening, Snape frowned: "Regulus Black..."

"I have met him a few times, and he has always been with the Bellas and his wife. He is a fanatical supporter of blood. I thought he was the most loyal servant of the Dark Lord, but I never expected that he could do such a courageous thing. "

Resisting the Dark Lord is something many people can't even think about, let alone put into practice.

Even he finally made up his mind to take revenge because of Lily's death.

"Where are the bodies?" Snape asked.

Dumbledore conjured a bed and took Gulus out.

Snape began to examine, his expression becoming more serious.

"It took too long to become an Inferi... If you want to recover, you need to pay a big price.

"All expenses will be borne by me." Dumbledore said without hesitation. 【013704417 Feilu 000372280】

"Including going to Lawrence to ask for Phoenix King's Nirvana ashes?"

Dumbledore's mouth twitched, but he nodded.

Snape smiled with satisfaction. Although he also admired Regulus, he still made a condition.

"The Black family should have a lot of lost potion formulas, right? (bhci)? I need to make a copy."

Dumbledore understood Sirius's prodigal character and agreed for him without hesitation.

"But you still have to wait, Mr. Lawrence is currently copying the Black family's collection of books.

Snape's face darkened.

Why did this kid take the lead again!

In the next few days, Snape did not immediately start studying the Inferi. Instead, he kept Regulus well and cherished the last time he spent with Peter.

He spent a lot of effort trying to disable Peter Pettigrew's Animagus abilities, but ultimately failed.

The relationship between magic and wizards is too strange. If Snape could do this, it would be almost equivalent to turning a division into a squib.

However, he can be controlled for a period of time with some solid potions, but they must be taken regularly.

The cost of this method was too high, and the Ministry of Magic rejected it without even thinking about it.

They planned to use the most traditional method and put a special collar on Peter.

As soon as it detects that his body shape begins to change, the collar will explode without hesitation, and Peter's body will be wiped out.

It is not that there have never been criminals who mastered Animagus in the past. Sirius only gave him the opportunity because he had not registered.

The day of the trial.

Fudge, who had just recovered from a serious illness, had regained much of his complexion. Looking at Peter Pettigrew with a ball in his mouth, a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes.

Everything was ruined by this mouse!

Although the "Daily Prophet" and "Wizard Weekly" were very generous and did not report it, which made Fudge very grateful, but I still don't know which bastard came from the mouth of the news.

In less than a day, everyone in the Ministry of Magic knew about it. In addition, as long as a wizarding family is included, almost everyone has something to do with the Ministry of Magic...

What's the difference between this and the entire magical world knowing about it?

Fudge had reason to suspect that Crouch had spread the news. He had motives and the two had grudges.

It must be revenge for the sudden attack on Sirius' case.

Fudge glanced at Crouch without any trace and announced the penalty for Peter Pettigrew.

Life imprisonment in Azkaban III.

After hearing this penalty, many people's expressions changed.

So cruel...

The prisons in Azkaban are all guarded by dementors, but overall there are differences.

The higher the number, the closer the prison is to where the dementors usually rest.

What is the concept of Prison No. 3?

It's no different than living in a dementor's lair.

As for Prison No. 1, it’s just living with the dementors, Azkaban.

No one in history has ever lived there.

It looks like Peter Pettigrew will die there within a few years.

This idea popped up in many people's minds, but no one complained about Peter Pettigrew.

Based on the crimes he committed, he deserved this end.

As for Peter Pettigrew himself...

He didn't care even more.

Dementors were nothing as long as they could stay away from Snape.

In Peter's mind now, Snape is even more terrifying than the Dark Lord...

After the verdict was pronounced, Fudge walked out of the courtroom without even looking at Peter Pettigrew.

The other jury members also left, and in the end only two Aurors were left, Peter Pettigrew was brought to the temporary detention location.

Stay there for one night and you will be sent to Azkaban tomorrow.

The next day.

On the roof of a tall building, there was a carriage parked.

Peter was placed in the carriage, and an iron fence was raised to isolate the inside and outside of the carriage.

Opposite Peter, there was an Auror pointing his wand at him to prevent him from making any small moves.

The faces of the several Aurors responsible for the escort were not very good-looking. New prisoners must be registered when sent to Azkaban, so that they would not have to come into contact with dementors.

It can be considered a chore.

Soon, six Thestrals pulled the carriage into the air, and a magic body spell was cast on the outside of the carriage, perfectly blending into the environment.

It takes about four hours to get from London to Azkaban, and a large part of the journey is over the ocean, which is very boring.

The two Aurors were also chatting to pass the time.

"What do you think Peter Pettigrew thinks? He turned into a mouse and passed the twelve tails.

"If he escapes from the UK, he can live an easy life casually."

"Who knows, I feel that these people's brains are not very good, and Black is not the same. They are always good at making simple things complicated, stupid Gryffindor.

"How do you talk?" The companions in the carriage were unhappy, "Who said all Gryffindors are like this? If you can, go and tell Professor McGonagall so?"

"Personal behavior should not rise to the level of the academy."

Hearing Professor McGonagall's name, the Auror who had been mocking Gryffindor just now did not dare to speak any more.

The weather gradually became gloomy, thick dark clouds covered the sky, and lightning flashed from time to time.

The North Sea was rough and the weather became extremely bad in the blink of an eye.

The Auror driving the car frowned and shouted into the car: "Parker! Get ready, I'm going to start accelerating!"

"Damn weather, it's probably going to rain heavily soon. "We must rush through this area as soon as possible."

"OK!"

The Thestral's march suddenly accelerated a lot, and the two Aurors outside had to put on a shiny protective shield to block the oncoming wind and rain.

And it's on an isolated island not far away.

A very handsome black-haired young man of seventeen or eighteen years old was leaning on the rocks and staring at the sky.

When he saw the carriage appear, his eyes lit up and he swept the wand over his body. The fitted suit instantly turned into a black hood, covering an inch of his face.

Then, he raised the wand high above his head and waved it wildly.

The thunder in the sky became more dazzling.

boom!

As his wand fell, a thunderbolt struck the carriage!
