Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple
Chapter 79 Peter Pettigrew
Snoring continued one after another at night. After making sure that everything was safe, Dumbledore canceled the teacher's alert. At this time, the sky in the east began to whiten.
Lupine was not reconciled. He took the wand and returned to the Whomping Willow.
"Long time no see, old friend."
The Whomping Willow twitched its thick branches, staring eagerly at the intruder. Lupine smiled slightly and waved his wand calmly. Suddenly, the tree trunks that were still on the ground flew up and down, deftly dodging the various attacks of the Whomping Willow.
Lupine waved his wand again, and the tree trunk seemed to have eyes, poking right into the scar of the Whomping Willow.
Suddenly, the willow tree stopped still, and Lupine stepped into it, sliding through the lower passage in the scar.
He blasted open the wooden door of the Shrieking Shack at the bottom, kicking up a huge cloud of dust.
"Sirius, I know you're here!"
Lupine's tone was trembling. He pointed his wand to his chest and waited quietly for the person he wanted to appear.
However, there was silence all around, and even the chirping of birds outdoors could be heard clearly.
Lupine knelt down and suddenly found the dusty dog paw prints on the ground. These paw prints were too familiar to him, they were the marks of Sirius Black.
Could it be that Blake is still here, or has he been here before?
He looked to the west of the Shrieking Shack, where he saw a bed covered with curtains. But now the sky was filled with dust, and the curtain was torn into rags. The wooden bed, which had been abandoned for a long time, had long been neglected.
Lupine stroked the various facilities in the room. He recalled his painful transformation process in the Shrieking Shack. He was dragged by the werewolf toxin in his body, and the bones in his body were extremely swollen.
Alone and helpless, no one could understand his pain and sadness, and he would lose his mind after turning into a werewolf. At that time, there was no such thing as wolfsbane potion.
He saw a photo on the ground, which was of the four of them. When they were young, they looked brave and heroic. Sirius smiled the most happily, and James put his arm on the shoulders of Lupine and Peter Pettigrew.
This coward, Lupine thought in his mind, he originally thought Sirius was the bravest Gryffindor, but he still succumbed to Voldemort's power.
I just felt sorry for Peter, but he became the most undeserving victim.
Suddenly, a shaking sound of wood cut off Lupine's thoughts. He frowned and pointed his wand in the direction of the sound.
Lupine walked slowly towards the direction of the movement. He saw a petite animal figure flash past his eyes. He rubbed his eyes, seeming a little unsure.
After a while, he regained his composure and gave a wry smile. It must be that he missed Peter too much and had such hallucinations. Peter Pettigrew was already dead and died under Black's curse.
Lupine looked around again to make sure there was no trace of Sirius around, and then slowly exited the Shrieking Shack.
When Lupine left, the mouse that had just appeared in Lupine's sight breathed a sigh of relief. His hands were trembling, for fear that Lupine would see something.
Ever since Sirius escaped from Azkaban, Peter Pettigrew had been on tenterhooks. He knew that Sirius knew everything at that time, and that he was actually the one who betrayed James and Lily. And let that good brother who was loyal to his friend take the blame for thirteen years.
But he had always been taking chances. Until tonight, when Sirius broke into Hogwarts and did what he did to the fat lady of Gryffindor, he knew that all this was for him, Black , wanting to take his life.
But he must not sit still and wait for death. For thirteen years, he has endured the humiliation. In order to better survive in the Weasley family, he erased their memories of when they met him and implanted an implant to live with them since he was a child. Good memories together.
What he had always feared was finally happening. Thirteen years ago, in order to survive, he had to betray the top-secret location of the Potter family to Voldemort, because he believed that only Voldemort would bring him supreme glory and a way to survive.
Peter Pettigrew was born with low self-esteem. The other three good brothers are all great among people. James and Sirius have always been star students and are popular among other students. Lupine is the kind of outstanding student in the eyes of the teacher. President, as well as various awards from the academy.
As for himself, he is just a humble Peter Pettigrew. Even the transformation of Animagus was only with the help of a few brothers.
It is said that the animals transformed by the Animagus can reflect the truest self in the heart. The mouse is the truest reflection of Peter's heart.
He was just a little follower of those three people. In fact, he felt that none of them really regarded him as a brother.
What made Peter most uncomfortable was that Sirius suggested that Peter be the secret keeper. He originally thought that he could finally be on an equal footing with them, but Sirius' next words made Peter fall into an endless abyss.
Black believed that Peter Pettigrew was weak and stupid enough that even Voldemort would not give him a second look.
Haha, this reason made Peter Pettigrew feel disappointed with those brothers. Therefore, even though he was in the Order of the Phoenix at that time, his heart had already begun to turn towards the Dark Lord.
Voldemort's power was so powerful that he could not match it. He even secretly attended the Dark Lord's party. There were Sirius's three sisters and many long-famous dark wizards in the place. Even the werewolf Fenrir was convinced. At Voldemort's feet.
For the first time, he felt the temptation from the pinnacle of power. Only by following Voldemort would he stand at the top of magic.
Voldemort attaches great importance to Peter, because of his status as a member of the Order of the Phoenix, the second-generation Dark Lord lacks an informant within the enemy. From that moment on, Peter turned his back on the righteous White Wizard.
However, Dumbledore did not believe him at that time, so the information he leaked was not considered core valuable intelligence within the Order of the Phoenix. However, the subsequent leakage of the Longbottoms' whereabouts was also due to Peter Pettigrew. .
Peter considered his most glorious moment to be that night when he told Voldemort where James and Lily lived, and even revealed to Voldemort the deepest secrets inside the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts.
However, Voldemort was not so lucky. After harvesting the Potter family, he fell on the body of a one-year-old baby.
He didn't expect that Voldemort would fail, he was afraid, and Sirius finally found him, because only James and the three of them knew about the change of secret keeper, not even Lupine and Dumbledore.
He cried to Sirius and started his acting. Then when the other party was distracted, he used the powerful black magic that Voldemort taught him, and deceived everyone in the world by cheating his own death.
Of course, such powerful black magic will inevitably come with a price, such as breaking a finger or something.
Therefore, at that time, Peter Pettigrew was recuperating in the sewer for a long time. When he saw the newspaper one day saying that Sirius was imprisoned in Azkaban, he chose to blend in with the crowd and enter as a mouse. Arrive at Weasley's house.
Now that the Dark Lord has fallen, the Death Eaters have long since disintegrated, and those who are unwilling to surrender are all imprisoned in Azkaban.
But now is also the most suitable moment for him, Peter Pettigrew, to be loyal. He always feels that the Dark Lord is not completely dead. He must be somewhere, waiting for the opportunity to return.
Then if Sirius Black is solved, no one will know what happened back then.
At that time, I was a hero, and I made a comeback as an old friend of James. When the time comes, I will be able to take both sides, which makes me feel happy just thinking about it.
Oh, and there’s that annoying Louis Wiggins. Peter Pettigrew frowned. Although he pretended to be scared before, he was a smart boy. If he didn't get rid of him, he still couldn't be considered a success.
It seems that we need to come up with a comprehensive plan.
