Retirement from Hogwarts

Chapter 259 Those things back then

Everyone in the hall exploded with a roar after hearing Black's answer. The most terrifying prison in the surface world, which they thought was impregnable, could be broken through so easily. To them, it was like a sunny day. thunderbolt.God knows how many people escaped from this prison with no security checks or autopsies at all.

Dumbledore looked stern after hearing Black's answer, and then made a gesture to ask the Aurors to seal the entire auditorium and cut off all communication methods here.Then he asked Black again in a soft voice: "Then why are you chasing Peter Pettigrew?"

"Why are you chasing Peter?" After hearing this question, Black's face, which had become dull after taking the Veritaserum, immediately turned ferocious: "Because he is a damn traitor. When James hired someone for him after having Harry, The Fidelity Charm was cast on their house, and we initially decided that I would be their secret keeper. But at the last minute, James and I played a little trick, and we convinced Lily to replace me with Peter at the last minute. Convince them to use him as secret keeper, not me."

"It was all my fault. When I found out they were dead I went to see Peter to make sure he was okay, but by the time I got to where he was hiding he was gone. But there was no sign of a struggle. .I felt something was wrong. I became scared. I went directly to where your parents lived. When I saw their house, it was destroyed, and I saw their bodies - I knew Peter must have done it. What a bad thing. I know how big a mistake I made. I thought it was the most perfect plan and a clever trick. Voldemort will definitely come after me, and he will never think of us taking advantage of a weak and stupid thing like Peter." Black said that he has said no here. After going down, he somehow found the strength to break free of the spell that bound him to the chair, and then he knelt down on the ground in pain and buried his face in his hands.

"So you came to chase Peter? How did you find out that Peter was still alive? Everyone knew that he was blown to pieces by your curse." Dumbledore looked at Black with some unbearability, but still followed the lead. asked.

"Ha, because when Fudge once came to Azkaban to inspect, he took pity on me and gave me a newspaper. The entire first page of that newspaper was full of Peter's photo. I was thinking about it all the time in Azkaban. Look at him, even if he turns into a mouse, I can still recognize him at a glance." Black raised his head fiercely and said.

Everyone took a breath after listening to his narration. People who can hold grudges like this are really rare.

"So Peter, was what happened back then really what Black said?" Seeing that Black could no longer ask for any other information, Dumbledore decisively turned his target to Peter Pettigrew.

"Yes." Peter said dully with saliva.

"Then how did Voldemort get the news from you?" Dumbledore asked with an unkind expression.

"I took the initiative to find him." Peter Pettigrew said proudly. "This way I no longer have to worry about being visited by mysterious people."

After hearing his answer, everyone around them went berserk with excitement. They had never thought that someone could betray themselves so shamelessly.

His friend then showed this proud expression.Moreover, this man faked his death and deceived everyone. He became the idol of many people for many years. If Dumbledore hadn't been holding him down, many people would have taken out their wands.

"Then since you know that Black has entered Azkaban, why have you turned into a mouse and hid all these years? Isn't it better to find a small place to hide in such a big universe?" Dumbledore was obviously not satisfied with Peter. Continue to ask where you got the information.

"Those people, those are hunting me." Peter trembled after hearing Dumbledore's question, and his reaction was even more intense than Black's just now.If Dumbledore hadn't been so quick to soothe him, he might have broken free like Black. "After the mysterious man died, he thought that the four of us had killed him. They were chasing me everywhere after the night when the mysterious man died. I had to take the initiative to attract Sirius Use his impulsive brain to fake his own death."

The people below couldn't help but gloated after hearing his explanation. This kind of person deserved to be hunted down by the demon Voldemort.

"It is said that Voldemort was not completely dead that night. Why don't you continue to follow him?" Jack, who had been hiding behind to watch the show when Dumbledore was about to end the culture, stood up and asked.

"I'll tell you why," said Black, who had sobered up from the Veritaserum next to him, "because Peter wouldn't do anything for anyone if he didn't think it was good for him. Voldemort was already hiding. 12 years. It is said that he is already half-dead. He wouldn't kill someone right under Dumbledore's nose for a wizard who has lost all his powers and his body no longer exists, right? After he returns Before joining the mysterious man, he must have made sure that Voldemort had become the most powerful boss in the circle again, right? Otherwise, why do you think he found a magical family to live in? So that he could hear new situations all the time, Isn't that right, Peter? You want to know how safe it is to return to your old protector if he ever regains strength."

After Black finished speaking, Peter Pettigrew opened and closed his mouth. Several times, it seemed that he had been delayed by Black saying everything he had to say.

The onlookers couldn't help but feel chilled after hearing this explanation, especially Ron. He had no doubt that if Voldemort gained power again, the mouse would sell his entire family to Voldemort without hesitation.Just when everyone was marveling at Peter Pettigrew's shamelessness and ruthlessness, Peter Pettigrew, who was tied to a chair, also woke up following Black's steps.After realizing what he had said, he and Fudge left a pool of yellow liquid in one glance, then rolled their eyes and passed out.

Although this originally very successful dinner turned out to be less pleasant due to the disruption of two uninvited guests, most of the people who attended felt extremely satisfied with it.Jack successfully completed the deal with the old butler of the Black family, took over most of the Malfoy family's contacts, and defeated Fudge, who had been siding with the Malfoy family to cause trouble for him. By the way, he also instigated him to jump out and die with Dumbledore. .And those magicians who were looking for breakthroughs successfully broke their own bottlenecks. Most of them succeeded in breaking through a small level. One lucky guy even broke through directly from the fifteenth level magician to the sixteenth level. The magister successfully raised his level.I think I won’t have to worry about selling Jack’s Restaurant Starry Sky in the future.
