We met Sirius in The Three Broomsticks.From the first time I saw him, I almost never saw him with a cold face.

However, when we walked into the bar, he was fidgeting with the wine glass in his hand, with his legs crossed on the booth opposite, and the old and old wooden chair was overwhelmed by his legs. squeak.

Not far from him, there are a group of faculty members headed by Professor McGonagall, and what is rare is that even Snape is sitting among them - although his face is stinky, I feel that he must be in good health Sitting in the office, but was forcibly pulled to have a party with colleagues.

Seeing that the professors were all here, Hermione couldn't help but change her face.In an instant, she and Ron were in front of us, covering Harry and me with a heavy cloak with open arms.

The four of us turned around and slipped into the corner where Sirius was by the tall Christmas tree by the fireplace.As soon as he saw us, he showed a relaxed smile, and the irritability between his eyebrows disappeared after he rubbed his fingers: "Harry! You are all here!"

"Hush!" The four of us solemnly put our index fingers on our lips to signal him to keep a low profile. Sirius' expression was a little funny, but he still kept his mouth shut.

Behind the dense Christmas tree full of decorations, the few of us bowed our heads furtively, and there were several butterbeers ordered by Sirius on the table.Harry and Sirius each sat in a wooden chair, and the three of us sat in a booth.

"Harry and Kelly shouldn't be in Hogsmeade." Hermione said sadly, "What if the professors see them?"

"Then don't let them see it," Ron murmured, as if she was asking an idiotic question.

Sirius also lowered his voice along with us, looking at us with interest: "How did you sneak out? I remember that there are dementors on the path, and the invisibility cloak can't resist the sensitive nerves of dementors."

"Of course not from the trail." Harry said, took out the Marauder's Map from inside his cloak, and spread it out on the square table with great interest. "Look at this, Sirius."

I could see that Harry was trying to show off a little, but Sirius' reaction was beyond our expectations.As soon as he saw this half-worn parchment, he immediately showed a clear and excited expression: "Ah, so you got this map!"

"You know this map?" Harry and Ron asked in unison, a little incredulous.With a smile on his face, Sirius pulled out his wand quite contentedly, tapped the parchment and said, "I solemnly swear that I will do no good."

The Marauder's Map naturally appeared dense lines of ink along with the tip of his wand. Facing our stunned look, he smiled and tapped on the four names with his wand: Moon Face, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs .

"Padfoot is me—" Sirius turned his head to look at Harry. "The prong is your father, and the moon face is Remus. We drew this map. We used to rely on it when we were students." Zhang map avoided a lot of trouble."

"Then this Wormtail..." Ron blurted out and then covered his mouth. Obviously we all know the true identity of this Wormtail.

Sirius suppressed his smile, showing a little disgust in his eyes: "Yes, that's Peter Pedilou."

"—moon face," murmured Hermione, her eyes blank and wary, "no wonder, no wonder!"

Harry picked up the map and stared at the words that belonged to the prongs. "So, this is the map that Harry's father participated in painting, and now it's back in Harry's hands." I said pleasantly, and Sirius nodded with nostalgia.

I suddenly had a very strange and satisfying feeling.Before Harry was 11 years old, he was a poor child without father and mother, living in his aunt's house—but now, he not only has a godfather and friends, but also knows many things about his parents that he didn't know before. From these bits and pieces of clues piece together their lives.

James Potter, who has the same curly black hair as Harry, was also a troublemaker like the Weasley twins when he was a student. He took adventures in the castle and the Forbidden Forest with three other friends... he drew this vivid picture like a genius. Dot the map...but the betrayal of one of them...

Looking at Harry's tense face, I quietly patted his thigh under the table to comfort him.He immediately raised his head, his eye sockets were a little red, and his eyes were flickering with joy and hatred.

We sat in the three broomsticks until the professors got up to leave, and Sirius took us around Hogsmeade again, buying a wealth of holiday gifts and candy.Before leaving, he said enthusiastically: "You should have a holiday tomorrow, come early, okay?"

"What are you thinking?" Harry and I naturally went back through the secret passage. After saying goodbye to Ron and Hermione, we walked in the dark secret passage one after the other, and he remained silent the whole time. "You want to go to Peter Pedirou, don't you?"

"..." Harry didn't speak, and the silence spread in the long secret passage, but he took my hand and squeezed it tightly, and then he said in a hoarse voice: "He—he killed them! Yes His betrayal caused my parents to be murdered, and he also framed Sirius - he was honored as a hero and lurked in the Weasleys' house for 12 years -"

"Sirius is full of guilt and guilt—for 12 years! Staying in Azkaban, being kissed by dementors every day—" His voice began to tremble, but he refused to turn to face me, just Leaning halfway on the back of the one-eyed witch statue, he gritted his teeth weakly: "Do you want me to ignore these things? Leave it—leave that bastard alone..."

"Of course it's impossible!" I said decisively, "If there is a chance, I would like to cast some curses on him!"

"...you can jinx?" Harry paused, his tense tone suddenly slowed down a lot, and turned his head to look at me.

I shook my head with a grin: "But I can learn. I mean, who wouldn't want to punish a despicable traitor like Peter Pedilou before packing him up and throwing him into Azkaban? "

"He's already escaped from there once." Harry said wearily, and I stepped forward and took him into my arms, trying to bury the tall him in my arms: "Then let Sirius and Lupine If you deal with him, you will stand by and take revenge with your own hands."

Harry squatted against my arms, his contorted posture made me wonder if his muscles were stiff, but he just said muffledly, "Thank you, Kelly...I feel better now, I should Listen to Sirius."

"Okay, let's go back." I happily lowered my head and kissed his forehead, and pushed him up, "It's almost dinner time."

"...Wait a little longer." Harry struggled and continued to plunge his face into my arms, "Wait a little longer..."

My response was to slap him across the head.

Early the next morning, we packed some change of clothes and took the Hogwarts Express to the station.There are quite a few students going home for Christmas this year, bustling together to discuss holiday plans. Even though the Christmas holiday is only two weeks away, some people still plan to travel abroad.

We were traveling with Percy and Fred and George and Ginny, because Sirius had invited the whole Weasley family to their house for Christmas.

Percy was a bit reluctant, but Fred and George were excited, jumping up and down the inertia of the Knights bus, asking Harry if there was a basilisk with tusks or a spooky basilisk. Mori's medieval wizard head.

When we walked into No. 12 Grimmauld Place back and forth, the decoration inside had been completely new.Many of the gloomy portraits had been draped in velvet, the beams were hung with pretty streamers and garlands, and there was a large evergreen in the living room with only scant decorations.

Sirius was standing in the corridor, waving his wand and pulling up thick ribbons of holly and mistletoe; Mr Weasley was standing by the fireplace, arranging the Christmas decorations in his pocket one by one; Mrs Weasley was shouting Ask where the flour and sugar are kept.

"The children are here!" Mrs. Weasley got no response and had to come out of the kitchen.Seeing us, she couldn't help shouting in surprise. "Have you had breakfast at school?"

"I've eaten—" we answered her in unison, and we lined up to hug her and feel her warm and honey-smelling embrace. "Is there anything we need help with?" Hermione asked.

After obtaining the consent of Sirius, Percy / found a deserted study alone and started to write his thesis; Fred and George disappeared in an instant, and they didn't know where to explore; Ginny and her father Let's start setting up the dining room together.

"Let's see—" Mrs. Weasley said with a smile, "how about you decorate the Christmas tree?"

We readily agreed, holding decorations, large and small, around the huge evergreen tree.Ron watched Sirius use his wand freely with envy in his eyes: "It would be easier if we could do this too." "You can wait until you are an adult." Hermione calmly interrupted his fantasy.

"Look." Harry touched my shoulder lightly, pointed to the thick ribbon that Sirius had just hung up, and it was hanging low over our heads, "That's mistletoe."

I followed his fingers and raised my head. The green mistletoe leaves were covered with red berries, and a large area grew densely, falling beautifully in the red and green ribbons.

Harry was looking at me expectantly, I pursed my lips and looked at him with a suppressed smile: "I see, it's very beautiful."

He raised his eyebrows, saw my joking expression, and said, "You don't want to be unlucky in the coming year, do you—" As soon as he finished speaking, he approached me and kissed me gently. This kiss was soft and fast, but Full of warmth and romance.

I'm not used to kissing in front of other people, so I just closed my eyes and touched his lips lightly with him, then quickly opened my eyes and walked around like a thief.

——then saw Ron's dumbfounded look, and the big and small Christmas golden balls in his hand fell all over the ground; A small doll is hung upside down outside.

"You, you didn't tell him?" I looked at Harry, who just adjusted his glasses innocently: "I thought they already knew."
