A Hogwarts dissertation guide

"It seems like it's very lively here." The door to the room was pushed open, and there was a rush of footsteps. Everyone turned their heads, "Peter Pettigrew?"

Fudge's face was full of astonishment. Behind him were two attendants dressed as typical non-English wizards. When they saw Edward sitting on the sofa, they nodded slightly.

"Yes, Cornelius, you read that right. This is the former hero, Peter Pettigrew." Dumbledore didn't look at Peter anymore. He walked quickly to Fudge, "You must want to hear what he said. Something happened."

"Why is he here?" Fudge's head obviously didn't turn around for a moment. "Isn't he already dead? That night."

"Yes, if everything is what we once thought, then he is indeed dead," said Dumbledore, "but clearly things have gone awry."

Fudge glanced around the room and immediately noticed Sirius Black sitting in the chair.

"This guy! He was finally caught!" Fudge said viciously, "Go and catch him!"

The two followers behind him looked at each other and stepped forward in tacit understanding to subdue Black, but their movements were extremely gentle, even slow, as if they were waiting for someone to say something to interrupt their actions.

"Stop it first, Cornelius." Dumbledore spoke, staring at Fudge's face. "You can only make a decision after listening to Peter Pettigrew's statement." He walked to Sirius, Blocked the movement of the two wizards.

The two wizards looked back at Fudge, who waved his hands impatiently, motioning for them to step aside.

"What do you want to tell me?" Fudge said, "Fugitive from the Ministry of Magic! The notorious Sirius Black is in this room, and you stopped me from arresting him. Are you already in league with him? ?Are you protecting your former beloved disciple? I know that he was once your proud disciple."

"I just want to make the truth known to the public," Dumbledore said slowly, "before you do something wrong or offensive."

Fudge was angry, but he had to swallow it.

In this room are Dumbledore, the greatest and most powerful white wizard; Severus Snape, the recognized master of potions and an outstanding master of dark magic, who was once the most loyal of You-Know-Who. A lackey, although I don’t know why Dumbledore trusted him so much; Remus Lupine, a werewolf who almost revealed his identity, was no secret within the Ministry of Magic; Sirius Black - who once killed ten people with a spell Three people, one of the most notorious Death Eaters; Edward Lumpo - a mediocre best-selling author, but Fudge always had an inexplicable fear when facing him.

"Okay, let's talk about it." Fudge chose to swallow his anger. He regretted that he didn't bring more people.

Lupine quickly recounted everything, starting from how he turned into a werewolf when he was a child, and the timeline spanned more than thirty years. This was so boring that Edward fell asleep on the sofa.

By the time Fudge looked at Peter Pettigrew with a complicated expression, it was already dark, and the golden light of the sunrise flowed into the office through the window.

"So, this guy... betrayed the Potters in everything that happened back then?"

Fudge summed up nearly an hour of Lupine's presentation in almost one sentence.

"Yes, that's it." Lupine responded.

"But how can I be sure that what you said is true and not deceiving me?" Fudge raised his own question. Although he was stupid, he still had some sense at least.

"Mr. Minister, we have veritaserum." The attendant behind him took out a small bottle of clear liquid from his pocket. "Mr. Suochi specifically asked us to carry it with us in case you are unable to confirm whether the other party is telling the truth."

"It seems everything has become easier." Fudge took the Veritaserum with a smile, "You are worthy of being an elite member of the Ministry. With you, the Ministry of Magic will surely become stronger again."

Fudge then poured Veritaserum into Black and Peter's mouths.

……

They had to listen to them again, starting with how Lupine turned into a werewolf, and ending with what happened tonight.

It was already completely bright, and everyone was trying hard to cheer up, but they couldn't stop yawning one after another. Snape had to distribute refreshing potions to everyone.

"Yawn...it seems everything has come to light." Fudge said while yawning, "Leave Peter to me, he will be punished."

"Don't put him in Azkaban. He knows Animagus and can escape from Azkaban." Lupine reminded quickly.

"Thank you, Remus, I will pay attention." Fudge said with a smile, "However, I think you'd better also file a case with the Ministry of Magic. Regarding the fact that you are a werewolf, students and parents need to Know the truth.”

Dumbledore stared at Fudge, as if he didn't understand his purpose.

"Come on, Albus," said Fudge, "Students and parents deserve to know the truth. They can't keep their teachers in the dark. It's not fair to them."

"Severus, you are a good hand at brewing Wolfsbane potion, right?" Dumbledore did not respond to Fudge's words, but instead asked Snape next to him.

"I make a big pot every month," Snape said coldly, the dark circles under his eyes getting deeper.

"I think nothing will happen to Remus at Hogwarts." Dumbledore said, blinking, "Isn't that right?"

"That's true, but I can't help you hide it, Albus." Fudge sighed, "I can't wait until the day it comes out and tell everyone: the Ministry of Magic has known about it for a long time, but they think There's no danger."

"I have to be responsible for everyone, just a werewolf teacher." Fudge glanced at Lupine, hoping that he would understand that he was not targeting him.

Lupine took a deep breath and said, "Professor, thank you very much for the care you have provided this year. I don't want you to embarrass me because of my affairs. I will voluntarily resign as Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts."

"You don't have to be like this." Dumbledore said with complicated eyes, "Severus and I will make sure you don't hurt anyone."

"But I'm not sure, Professor." Lupine smiled. "Without Wolfsbane Potion, I don't know what I did after transforming. I don't want to hurt innocent people because of my negligence."

"You are a kind person." Fudge stretched out his hand towards Lupin, "If you are willing, the door of the Werewolf Consultation and Liaison Department of the Ministry of Magic will be happy to open for you. I think they like you very much for such a kind werewolf."

"Thank you, I'll consider it."
