Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Chapter 161 Peter Pettigrew (2)

When Nidia rushed to the exit of the Whomping Willow, Harry and Hermione were being attacked by the Whomping Willow. Both of them had wounds of varying degrees. Nidia quickly reached out and pressed down on the tree. Knuckles, the Whomping Willow stopped immediately.

"Why are you there, Nidia?" Harry looked at Nidia who came out of the hole in surprise.

"Come with me" Nidia waved to Harry, "You should know these things too."

"Where are you taking us?" Harry looked at Nydia in surprise, "Ron was taken away from that passage by a big dog. Did you see him?"

"Harry, don't you understand?" Hermione said, "She and the big dog are together."

Harry looked at Nydia in disbelief, and Nydia nodded without denying it.

"The reason why you have been missing this semester is because you were with that big dog?" Hermione asked Nydia. "That time in Potions class, Neville said that the dirt on your body was... Near the Whomping Willow.”

"Where was Ron taken?" Harry asked worriedly.

"Come with me and I'll explain it all to you."

Nydia led Harry and Hermione through the passage to the Shrieking Shack.

"This is the Shrieking Shack." Hermione looked at her surroundings in surprise.

"Yes, Ron is upstairs. He was injured a little, but I've given him some medicine. It shouldn't be anything serious." Nydia continued to lead Harry and Hermione towards the second floor. Go to the room.

Pushing open the door, Harry and Hermione saw Ron lying injured on the ground, and immediately rushed forward to check with concern.

"Ron, how are you?"

"Where's the big dog?"

"Why are you here, Harry, this is a trap," Ron said in a panic, "That dog is an Animagus."

Ron pointed behind Harry, and Harry turned quickly and saw a tall man walking out of the shadows. He closed the door with a bang, and then stood next to Nydia. It was Sirius Black.

"Expelliarmus." Sirius was using Ron's wand. He let Harry and Hermione's wands fall out of their hands and then caught them.

Nydia originally wanted to stop Sirius from doing this, but then she thought that maybe this would be better. After all, Harry and the others still don't know the true situation of the matter, so they might not be able to do anything.

"It's been so long and you haven't got him yet?" Nydia blamed Sirius.

"Nidia, he is Sirius." Hermione looked at Nidia who was standing beside Sirius in disbelief.

"They are together, Nidia wants him to kill me," Ron said excitedly.

"I didn't think that, Ron, please stop your random speculations, okay?" Nidia couldn't help but rolled her eyes at Ron, "If we really wanted to kill you, would you still be alive today?" "

"Why Nydia?" Harry pointed at Sirius excitedly, "You know, he betrayed my parents, he was the one who killed my parents, why do you still stand on his side?"

"Harry, I don't deny that it was my mistake that led to the murder of your parents," Sirius said to Harry guiltily.

"Did you hear that? He has already admitted it himself, do you still think he is innocent?" Harry hissed at Nydia in a low voice.

"That's not the case, Harry, listen to me." Nydia stepped closer to Harry, hoping that Harry could calm down.

Seeing Nidia approaching Harry, Ron endured the pain in his feet, stood up unsteadily, blocked in front of Harry, and said angrily to Nidia, "If you want to kill Harry, , unless you kill me first."

"Ron, you'd better lie down. Your leg injury is already serious. You will make the wound worse." Nidia looked at Ron with a headache. He seemed to have decided that he was going to be detrimental to them. , "No one here wants to kill Harry."

"Only one person will die here tonight," Sirius roared emotionally.

"Really? You didn't care about this last time. When you were chasing Peter Pettigrew, you didn't care about how many Muggles you killed." Harry looked at Sirius angrily. "Why did Azkaban make you soften your heart?"

"Harry, stop talking." Hermione was worried that Harry's words would anger Sirius, after all, none of the three of them had wands in their hands now.

"He killed my parents"

Harry excitedly pushed aside Ron and Hermione who were blocking him, and rushed towards Sirius. He didn't have a wand, so he raised his fist and hit Sirius in the face, and Sirius also He didn't dodge, he just stood there and let Harry's fist hit him in the face, and they both fell to the floor at the same time.

"No" Nydia immediately rushed forward and pulled Harry away from Sirius. "Harry doesn't want this."

Harry grabbed Nitya's wrist, pulled her close to him, and looked at her with a painful expression. Then he roared, "Why are you still helping him? Do you really want my life like Ron said?"

"Harry, calm down. Things are not what you think. Can you let us finish talking?" Nidia anxiously wanted to calm Harry down.

"I trust you so much I even"

"Put your hands off"

Before Harry could finish his words, the door was suddenly pushed open forcefully, and a figure rushed in and pushed Harry away from Nydia.

"Draco" Nydia looked at the person in front of her in surprise, "How did you get here?"

"I brought him here. He was very worried." Lupine appeared at the door of the room. He looked at Sirius who was still lying on the ground. "You are really terrible like this."

Lupine walked over to Sirius, grabbed his hand, pulled him up from the ground, and hugged Sirius like a brother.

"No" Harry's heart sank, looking at the scene in front of him in disbelief.

"I don't believe I've been helping you hide it," Hermione screamed, then turned to look at Nydia, "That's why you asked me to help him keep it a secret, right? You have always been together, you are all helpers. The one holding Sirius, right?"

Lupine looked at Hermione in surprise, then turned to look at Nydia.

"She guessed it on her own because of the paper Snape assigned," Nydia explained to Lupine.

"You really amaze me, Hermione. You are the smartest little witch I have ever seen." Lupine sighed to Hermione.

"I believe you so much. It turns out you have always been his friend." Hermione's voice became trembling.

"No, it wasn't the case before, please let me explain," Lupine said, looking at Harry.

"Don't believe what he says Harry he's a werewolf" Hermione screamed.

As soon as Hermione's words came out, everyone fell silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on Lupine. Even Draco unconsciously pulled Nydia back a few steps. Lupine's face looked a little pale.

"You know?" Draco asked softly in Nydia's ear.

Nydia nodded, then walked forward and said to everyone, "Lupine is indeed a werewolf, but this doesn't mean anything. Dumbledore also knew that he was a werewolf, but he still hired him. Dumbledore believed in him." "

"But Dumbledore trusted the wrong person and he was helping Sirius" Harry shouted.

"I'm not helping Sirius, if you give me time to explain" Lupine looked at Harry sincerely.

"If you hadn't been helping him, how did you find yourself here?" Harry questioned Lupine's words.

"It's the Marauder's Map. I saw everything that happened to you on the map." Lupine explained.

"You know how to use it?" Harry asked doubtfully.

"Of course I know, because I participated in the drawing, and I am the moon face."

"What Harry Lupine said is true. He was unaware of it before. I was the one helping Sirius." Nydia stood up. "If you can calm down and listen to us explain things clearly, you will find that things are not what you think."

"It's not too late to explain later." Sirius became impatient, his eyes fixed on Ron.

"Harry has the right to know all this." Lupine stopped Sirius who was about to rush towards Ron.

"Know what?" Harry asked confused.

"Knowing the truth back then." Nidia said.

"The truth is that he betrayed my parents to Voldemort" Harry roared again.

"No, there is another person who betrayed your parents, it was Peter Pettigrew," Nydia explained.

"It's ridiculous. Peter Pettigrew had been dead for twelve years and he had already been brutally murdered by Sirius." Harry didn't believe what Nydia said.

"I wanted to kill him but he escaped and he turned into a mouse and escaped," Sirius hissed, "But it won't happen this time. I won't let him escape this time."

"Mouse" Ron exclaimed. He looked at his pocket and took Scabbers out of his pocket. Scabbers struggled desperately to escape.

"Yes Ron, Peter Pettigrew is also an Animagus, he is Scabbers," Nydia said, looking at Ron.

"It's impossible that Banban is just a mouse, it's already staying with us."

"Twelve years, right? No mouse can survive that many years," Lupine interrupted Ron, "Hand him over, Ron, and we will prove our words to you."

"No, it's not Peter, it's Scabbers." Ron wanted to stuff Scabbers back into his pocket again, but Scabbers struggled too much, "Peter Pettigrew has been blown up by him, and there's nothing left from the explosion." Down"

"A finger," Sirius said sarcastically, "take a good look at your mouse and see what it's missing."

Sirius' words made everyone look at Scabbers again, with a hint of suspicion rising in their hearts.

"Hand it over Weasley, as long as you hand it over everything will be clear." Draco said to Ron impatiently.

"There's no way Malfoy Scabbers is my pet," Ron said angrily, holding Scabbers tighter in his hand in case one of them would suddenly swoop in and snatch Scabbers away.

"This is impossible, Scabbers can't be an Animagus," Hermione said. "The Ministry of Magic keeps records of all Animagus. I saw the list from Professor McGonagall, and Peter Pettigrew's name was not on it."

"You are right, Hermione," said Lupin, "but the Ministry of Magic does not know that there are three unregistered Animagus operating at Hogwarts."

"If you want to explain it to them, you'd better hurry up." Sirius paced back and forth in the room impatiently, "I have been waiting for twelve years, and I don't want to wait any longer."
