"Merlin's gloves! This is simply the scariest place I have ever been!" On the way back, Andromeda's face turned pale. "They... he has been imprisoned here for so many years... If Sirius is really innocent …”

She seemed a little incoherent.

The effects of the Polyjuice Potion had expired, and Regulus was transformed into his original form, adjusting the ill-fitting clothes he had borrowed from Ted Tonks.

"He is indeed innocent." He used his wand to conjure a bow tie for himself, "but in his own words, he deserves to be locked up here."

"What on earth were you talking about? Can you tell me?" Andromeda asked.

"The true identity of the traitor." Regulus replied calmly, "I will catch him as soon as possible."

"May Merlin bless you." Andromeda wisely stopped and did not continue to ask.

When saying goodbye, Regulus took out a glass bottle and handed it to Andromeda.

"What does this mean?" Andromeda recognized this as a memory, but did not understand the meaning of Regulus's actions.

"If someone asks your husband what it's like inside Azkaban, you can't just ask all the questions." Regulus said half-jokingly, "This is my fake visit to the prison. I hope you don't use it." When remembering.”

After the two said their goodbyes, Andromeda returned to her home in Wales, while Regulus went straight back to school.

Sitting in the office, Regulus was combing through his thoughts. Notes were casually pinned to the wall, with short sentences scrawled on them.

"Peter is an Animagus who can transform into a mouse and live like a real mouse."

"He's definitely not hiding in the sewers like a real rat. He's a wizard after all."

"Perhaps any family likes to keep strange pets, and it is normal to keep a mouse."

"Living in someone else's home, where you have no worries about food and clothing, and can keep abreast of current affairs news, is definitely the best choice."

"Some of the Death Eaters who were not captured knew that Peter Pedillo was the true traitor."

"Peter did not dare to show his face in front of them. It is absolutely impossible for the target of boarding to be these families."

Regulus felt that he was vaguely thinking of something, but he wanted to catch it but couldn't.

"It's necessary to get a pensieve." He burned the note cleanly, went down to the auditorium to eat, and then returned to the classroom.

At eight o'clock in the evening, he waited for the students who were going to be placed in solitary confinement.

After a week of lying in the school hospital, Barnaby Lee and Charlie Weasley were finally discharged and began their solitary confinement in Regulus.

Although the injury from the three-headed dog seemed serious at the time, it was basically a flesh wound. Under Madam Pomfrey's hands, such an injury could be cured quickly as long as it did not lead to immediate death.

The most feared injuries are those caused by creatures with dark magic or the sequelae of highly poisonous creatures.

Therefore, Li and Charlie are very active at this time.

"Professor, what is the content of our confinement? Are the two of us joining forces to duel you?" In the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, Barnaby Lee was eager to give it a try.

"You are a wizard, not a bull who only knows how to duel every day." Regulus said seriously, and Barnaby Lee looked very frustrated.

It was even more frustrating when they learned about the confinement.

"Correcting first-year students' homework? Sir, are you serious?"

"I don't need you to point out the content of my confinement. Maybe you also want to correct the homework of the second grade students?"

The two of them didn't dare to talk much and just started correcting.

Regulus saw Charlie's red hair, and an idea hit his mind like lightning, and the question blurted out.

"Do you have a mouse in your house?"

"Huh?" Charlie hesitated for a moment before realizing that the question was being asked to him, "Yes, that's right."

"How long have you had it?"

"It's been eight or nine years. When I was a child, it ran into our house. My mother saw that one of its claws was broken, so she kept it." Charlie didn't think too much and answered smoothly.

"Your confinement ends here!"

Barnaby Lee and Charlie looked at each other, watching Regulus suddenly pick up his briefcase and rush out of the classroom.

The information quickly weaved into a web in Regulus' mind.

The mouse has lived in the Weasley family for eight or nine years, which is a good time.

One of the claws was broken, and at the scene where Sirius was captured, the only fragment of Peter that was found was his finger.

One of the twins also said that the rat could not be transformed by their transformation spell.

What if it wasn't a mouse at all, but Peter Pedillo?

Everything makes sense.

It's almost effortless.

Regulus almost rushed to Weasley's house immediately, but considering that it was almost midnight and there was no good reason, he finally suppressed his urge.

If you break into someone else's home rashly, you will only be regarded as an intruder, and you may also alert the snake.

He tossed and turned all night long, and finally leaned against the window, watching the stars streak across the night sky. Orion revealed a shoulder from the horizon, and the sky turned white.

The next day, in the second grade Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

"It is dangerous and stupid to rashly use spells on yourself to try to repair the damage caused by the curse without knowing how to break it." Regulus walked around the classroom and summarized the class, " More than one wizard has tried to use a repair spell to change his front teeth after being hit by the Buck Tooth Curse, but in the end, he lost his nose."

The students burst into laughter.

"I must recite a repair spell on Montague's face next time." After hearing this, Fred Weasley didn't care at all, but was eager to try it.

"Maybe take his nose off," George agreed.

The two of them couldn't help but laugh out loud as they pictured Montague's nose being broken off in their minds, ignoring Angelina's small reminder behind them.

Until they discovered that the classroom had become extremely quiet at some point.

Fred bravely raised his head to look up, only to find Regulus standing behind him, looking down at them with a serious expression.

"Everyone else is dismissed, you two stay."

Angelina shook her head in regret and left with her friend Aaliyah Spinnet.

The Slytherin classmates were not so friendly. Montaigne and Warrington did not forget to give the twins a rude gesture before leaving, and Fred immediately responded with a curse word.

"Don't look at me like that. I won't punish students in solitary confinement just because they came up with an idea." Regulus' tone made the twins breathe a sigh of relief.

"Of course, if anyone really does this, don't blame me for not warning you in advance."

The twins repeatedly stated that they would not put a curse on Montague.

"By the way, you said before that there is a mouse in the house, but why can't it transform?"

"Yes, sir. Since I mentioned this last time, George and I caught a few mice and tried it. The spell is fine."

"I happen to be studying this topic recently. Can you take me to have a look?" Regulus asked, "How about this afternoon?"

"But... we have classes in the afternoon..." George replied.

"...It's the History of Magic." Fred looked at the class schedule and added.

"Otherwise..." George rolled his eyes.

"Are we skipping class?" they both said in unison.

"No, I will help you give Professor Binns a leave request note, saying that I will take you for a home visit." Regulus thought for a moment, then added, "But he probably won't notice that there are no people in the class. .”
