Chapter 490: Who is the godson? (Additional update from the Leader of the Endless Alliance)
Chapter 490 Who is the godson? (Additional update from the Leader of the Endless Alliance, Chapter 25)
Neville always thought that Harry only had his aunt and uncle, and he had said before that these two people treated him very badly and did not even give him an application form to sign for Hogsmeade.
Now I suddenly heard that Harry had a godfather. This news brought a greater shock than Kyle's appearance in the Gryffindor common room.
“You have a godfather?” Neville asked in surprise: “Why have I never heard of you talking about it before?”
“I just found out too.” Harry smiled as he put the candy into Neville's pocket.
There was no other way before. Because of Sirius' identity, he could only hide this matter in his heart and not tell anyone.
But things are different now. Sirius was acquitted in the retrial, and he could finally tell everyone the good news openly.
But Harry didn't get carried away. After all, he only heard about it and didn't see the newspaper or letter, so he deliberately didn't say Sirius's name.
Looking at the excited Harry, Hermione was also very happy for him. She also knew how hard Harry had been waiting for this day.
But...she lowered her head, seeming to be thinking about something.
Soon, Harry came back. He put the half-full candy bucket on the table, and then stared out the window blankly. Whenever an owl flew over, he couldn't help but stand up. When they After flying away, it will show a disappointed expression.
“Don’t you think it’s strange?” Hermione asked suddenly.
“What’s weird?” Harry replied absentmindedly, still staring out the window.
“Of course it’s Kyle,” said Hermione.
Ron fiddled with the new quill and said, "What happened to him?"
"Haven't you noticed?" Hermione glanced at them with disgust, "How did Kyle know that Sirius was acquitted?"
"Of course it's a newspaper." Ron said matter-of-factly. "Didn't he say that because of this incident, the Daily Prophet urgently printed an additional newspaper."
“What about these things!”
Hermione pointed to the golden cauldron on the table. "Sirius obviously bought this in Diagon Alley. Have you ever thought about it, if he wanted to give it to Harry, why not let the owl deliver it directly instead of asking Kyle to help..."
Ron raised his head, and Harry stopped looking out the window.
That’s right, they realized then that since it was for Harry, why should Kyle give it to him?
Could it be that Sirius wrote the wrong address? But they are obviously all at Hogwarts.
"Don't you understand?" Hermione looked at the two people with confused faces and closed her homework angrily. "It's very simple. I dare say that Kyle was with Sirius at the time, and he was also in Diagon Alley. !”
"What?" Ron said in disbelief, "But that's impossible... I mean, there's no Hogwarts Express on the weekend, how did he get back there."
"There must be some other way." Hermione said, "Also, I don't know if you still remember, during lunch today, Professor Dumbledore went to the auditorium to call Kyle away, and he hasn't done anything until now. return."
"You mean..." Harry frowned: "At that time, he already knew about Sirius's retrial and went to look for him outside the school?"
“I think, yes…”
The three people fell silent immediately. They didn't understand why Dumbledore told Kyle this.
Harry felt a little confused. He was Sirius's godson, and he was the last one to know... "Ouch."
Just as he was lost in thought, Harry suddenly felt a stinging pain on his hand. When he lowered his head, he discovered that an owl the size of a bludger was pecking his hand, and there was a letter next to it.
“Oh, there’s a letter from Sirius!” he said excitedly, opening the envelope in twos and twos.
Hermione and Ron also came over.
On the other side, the news of Sirius Black's acquittal spread quickly in Hogwarts through the Daily Prophet. Those students who subscribed to the newspaper immediately told others about it. Now everyone Everyone was discussing this matter, and even the Triwizard Tournament was put aside.
Twelve years in Azkaban, just waiting for a chance to take revenge. Is there anything more legendary than this experience?
Hogwarts is full of teenage students, and when they are at their most enthusiastic, this is what they love to watch most.
By the time dinner was served, almost all the students in the auditorium were discussing the matter. Fred and George no longer paid attention to the boxes. They gathered around Harry, curiously inquiring about the news.
Harry was so excited after receiving the letter that he spilled the beans. Now almost everyone in Gryffindor knows that Sirius is his godfather.
Everyone was eager to get some information from him that was not in the newspapers.
Others can only guess on their own because they can't squeeze in.
"I dare say Black must have done it on purpose..." Mikel vowed on the Hufflepuff table: "He would rather give up his freedom and take the initiative to be locked up in Azkaban just to kill the food inside. Dead Apostle."
"It's difficult." Someone said, "With the dementors around, even Black can't kill the Death Eaters trapped inside."
"So it took him twelve years." Mikel said, "And don't forget, he was the first person to successfully escape from prison. He must have a way to deal with Dementors."
His statement was actually approved by many people.
Since he can escape, there must be a way to deal with the Dementors... This makes sense.
"When he kills all the Death Eaters, he comes out to find out the real culprit and proves his innocence... I have to say, he is really amazing."
Mikel continued, his eyes flashing, "It would be great if Professor Dumbledore could ask him to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.
"Of course, I'm not saying Professor Moody is bad, I mean wait until next year..."
The curse of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts is so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people that five professors have been replaced in five years, and none has been re-elected.
So even if they are legendary Aurors, they don't have much hope... Lockhart's reputation is about the same as Moody's, and he is also a member of the Order of Merlin. Doesn't it matter if he is different?
The students were noisily discussing things about Sirius Black, and the teachers' desk was noisy.
Dumbledore's confidentiality work was very good, and no one has disclosed it. Except for a few people, most professors only found out about it today.
Hagrid has been in a daze for half an hour, holding a newspaper.
He has scolded Sirius Black many times before, and has said more than once that if he catches Black, he will beat him out of his last night's meal, otherwise he will be a Philobian caterpillar.
As a result, things suddenly turned around. Blake was innocent and the betrayer was someone else.
Now it must not be able to play Black overnight dinner, but he doesn't want to be a Felos caterpillar.
"What can we do..." Hagrid felt that his mind was a little confused.
