Hogwarts: I inherited my legacy

Chapter 44 Catching Tom

In the face of the powerful curse, Peter's defense of his soul was in vain.

When Dumbledore held the Elder Wand and cast spells strictly according to the spell, even Snape, who was proficient in Occlumency, could not protect his memory.

Dumbledore closed his eyes and allowed the spell to wade through Peter Pettigrew's brain.

"No!! Help, who will help me, James? Lupin? Where are you? Professor Dumbledore, help me."

The memories are sorted by depth. The first thing Dumbledore turned to was this scene:

In the memory, this is the bottom of a bed, and everything in the room becomes tall, as if it is the residence of a giant.

The owner of the memory was nestling in the shadow at the foot of the bed, keeping quiet, but the fear and screams in his heart could still be conveyed to Dumbledore's heart.

thump, thump, thump

The footsteps are getting closer and closer, and the memory owner's heartbeat is getting faster and faster, as if he can hear the sound of blood flowing.

Suddenly, a huge face appeared in front of him. Dumbledore recognized this face. This face was the face used by Tom during the Voldemort period. It was also the dark cloud that had shrouded the British wizarding world for more than ten years.

The memory owner's breathing seemed to have stagnated, and soon it really stopped, because Voldemort's hand choked the air, so the air also choked the mouse's neck.

The perspective kept shaking, and the mouse's body was struggling violently. Finally, he couldn't bear to change back to human form, and lay on the ground breathing heavily.

"Who allowed you to breathe, you sewer rat? [Heart-cutting bone]."

As Voldemort's wand swung, Peter's body twisted into unimaginable angles.

"[Drilling out the bones]

[Drilling out the bone]

[Drilling out the bones]”

The screams were heard, but no one dared to make a sound. Even if it was laughter, the Death Eaters outside did not dare to hear it. They did not dare to disturb the master's interest when he was torturing the wizard.

"Little mouse, didn't Dumbledore teach you to keep your mind silent in front of Legilimens?

Oh yes, of course he won't tell you, because he himself is a Legilimens, a white wizard, how could he know such evil and dirty magic.

Tell you, how else can he confirm your loyalty? "

After Voldemort laughed strangely, he continued,

"I have to thank Dumbledore. It was precisely because he didn't tell you that I was able to catch so many wizards in hiding. Ah, your thoughts are like fireworks at night, pointing out your hiding places for me."

Unbelievable, doubtful, and resentful emotions emerged from Peter's heart. As a bystander, Dumbledore could discover Voldemort's manipulations on Peter.

He was catalyzing Peter Pettigrew's negative emotions. He was toying with the members of the Order of the Phoenix, torturing and killing them. Voldemort was a little tired of playing with them. He wanted to distort the minds of these people.

At this time, Peter did not realize that he was affected.

"Yes, yes, resentment, hatred, Dumbledore is using you. He doesn't care about your life or death at all, and he never thought of saving you." Voldemort's voice became soft and gentle.

"Your name is Peter, right? You are a Gryffindor wizard. I have heard of your excellence in Gryffindor.

Your mother is a wizard, I know that, you are not a Mudblood, you are from our side. "

Voldemort placed his palm on Peter's bald head.

"Don't worry about your friends, Potter is a descendant of the noble Peverell, Sirius is a member of the Black family, you see, that is his biological brother, Regulus Black.

You can feel that he often scolds Regulus, right? Because he loves his brother, he will join our side. "

Peter's defenses were already collapsing, and Voldemort's voice was like the snake in the Garden of Eden, constantly breaking through Peter Pettigrew's thoughts.

"I am not your enemy, I am Dumbledore's enemy,

Dumbledore is using you and the lives of my fellow wizards to save the Mudbloods he loves so much. Who knows what hobbies he has?

do you know? His brother had an unusual interest in sheep, and they, Dumbledore, were all weirdos. "

At this time, Voldemort no longer had the sinister look that he had just tortured Peter, he was just like a friend.

Under the influence of a love potion-like spell,

Dumbledore could feel Peter Pettigrew's body gradually relaxing until he was lying on the ground.

"Thank you for your kindness, my lord, and please let Peter serve you."

It was obviously a sharp laugh, but it sounded so cheerful to Peter's ears.

Two completely different feelings were quarreling in the ears of Dumbledore, the bystander, both of which were clearly coming from the same person's laughter.

But how could this affect Dumbledore, who often used the pensieve? He quickly cleared these thoughts and moved on to the next memory.

Legilimens all know a rule, don't be affected by the emotions you ingest.

"Peter, I hope you can help us, my friend." It was James Potter who spoke, and his wife Lily Potter was gently coaxing the little baby.

Dumbledore, of course, knew the couple, and it was this gentle woman who defeated Lord Voldemort in his heyday at the cost of his life.

As a Muggle-born wizard, he has accomplished things that many pure-blood families could not do together. As the principal, Dumbledore really admired this child.

He has always been proud to be the principal of this wonderful group of children.

"The mysterious man is capturing us. He predicted his old enemy and wants to harm Harry. Sirius has a spell that can hide secrets in people's souls. If you use this spell, the mysterious man will find It’s not us anymore.”

James said with a pleading look on his face.

"Sirius has been active on the front lines of the battle, but he is worried that his soul is being played by the mysterious man. If you can secretly become our secret keeper, the mysterious man will never imagine it."

memory flows

Dumbledore kept flipping through his memories,

Several memories of betraying his colleagues, leading to members of the Order of the Phoenix being killed by Voldemort.

The memory of being tortured by Voldemort without getting key information.

Memories of regret.

Until another memory

Peter Pettigrew is writing a note.

【Dear Master】

[The Longbottoms would go to No. 12 Golden Cross Street every Saturday to visit their children. 】

[The Potters hide]

Writing this, Peter Pettigrew's quill paused for a moment,

But thinking that I have betrayed too many secrets of the Order of the Phoenix, and indirectly or directly killed so many colleagues,

Peter's pen, which had stopped, began to write again.

[The Potters hide in No. 11 Godric's Hollow]

【Your humble servant】

no signature

After scrolling through the memory to this point, Dumbledore no longer wanted to read anymore. Everything about avenging friends and killing Sirius were all lies. Peter Pettigrew was a cowardly waste who was afraid of death, betrayed his companions, and was cowardly.

Dumbledore looked at Peter's memories and felt nothing but disgust and anger.

But he couldn't stop. He wanted to see what Peter did in the next eleven years. He wanted to see what Peter had been doing in these years.

[Explosion, suspended animation]

[Turn into a mouse and hide in the Weasley house]

【Become Percy's pet】

【Become Ron's pet】

[Occasionally you can smell the master's breath from the little wizard]

[Borrowed by Raven]

Wait, [can you smell the master's breath from the little wizard]?

As an undercover agent placed by Voldemort in the Order of the Phoenix, Peter Pettigrew naturally did not have the Dark Mark on his body.

However, long-term contact has made this person who is secondly afraid of death have an almost intuitive perception of Voldemort, who symbolizes death.

It seems that Voldemort has indeed sneaked into the campus? Dumbledore began to think quickly, and he indeed planned to use the Philosopher's Stone to pull Tom out of hiding and eliminate him again.

Tom has fought back several times in the past eleven years, but he was quietly killed by this old man, so now Tom doesn't dare to show up easily.

Without exposing his weakness to Tom, he would definitely not dare to show up.

If Tom didn't show up this year and continued to hide, he would have no materials to lay out his one-year protection spell.

It would be nice if Tom showed up on campus.
