Chapter 129 Acting Principal takes office, can't wait Harry (please subscribe!)
"...exactly our Rubeus Hagrid!
After Dumbledore announced the news, there was a warm applause from the audience, which was much stronger than the one who welcomed Lupin just now. It seems that his popularity among the students is not bad.
At this time, Hagrid was sitting next to Professor McGonagall. Seeing that he was still sitting on the chair, Professor McGonagall poked him with his elbow, motioning him to stand up and say hello to the students.
But the next second Professor McGonagall regretted it. Hagrid was so big that his beer belly knocked all the cutlery on the table when he stood up.
"The next thing, more serious, is that at the request of the Ministry of Magic, Dementors from Azkaban will be at Hogwarts until Sirius Black is captured."
"Dementors will be stationed at the entrances of the school to prevent fugitives from entering the school. Although I have been assured that their presence will not affect our daily school life."
"But I still want to remind you that dementors are very ferocious creatures, and they don't distinguish between those they are hunting and those who stand in their way.
"Therefore, I must warn everyone here not to let them find a reason to hurt you.
"Finally, there is one more thing. I need to leave the school for a period of time for personal reasons. During my absence, Professor Snape will be the interim principal."
Before the little wizards could digest the news of the Dementors, Dumbledore threw another bombshell.
For a time, the four academies were boiling, and the general hall was full of endless discussions.
The one who reacted the most was Harry. He didn't expect things to happen so suddenly, and a big backbone in his heart suddenly announced the news of leaving.
And it was Snape who took over as headmaster.
Dementor + Acting Headmaster Snape, Harry only felt that his study life this semester would be extremely dark, and he secretly made up his mind that the Sirius matter must be resolved as soon as possible.
At least let the Ministry of Magic evacuated these dementors, he didn't want to encounter them again from the bottom of his heart, and he didn't want to experience the fear that came from the bottom of his heart.
"Okay, kids, don't worry, if things go well, I'll be back soon." Dumbledore reassured, "Let's enjoy this delicious dinner together now!"
However, Zicomo's words sounded a bit like a flag in his ears, and with Voldemort's life-saving level, it was still a question whether he could see Dumbledore this semester.
Hearing Dumbledore's words, the little wizards sighed in relief and threw themselves into the food in front of them.
After the dinner, Zicomo had just returned to the dormitory when there was a knock on his dormitory door.
Zicomo opened the door and found Harry standing outside.
Without waiting for Zicomo's question, Harry pulled him out and said, "Zicomo, let's go, we can move now."5
Zicomo asked vaguely: "Action? What action?"
"The thing about verifying that Scabbers is Peter Pettigrew! You mustn't forget?"
"It turned out to be this matter, of course I didn't forget it. It's just that we are going to catch Banban like this, won't Ronald have any objections? 35
"Don't worry, he won't have an opinion. I put sleeping pills in his water, and he won't wake up for a while.35
Well, it looks like Ronald can have a good dream tonight.
Harry took Zicomo to his dormitory, and the two of them looked at the cage on Ronald's bedside table, where Scabbers was resting.
Peter Pettigrew in his sleep suddenly had an ominous premonition, and the wizard's intuition woke him up instantly.
Then he saw Zicomo and Harry looking straight at him.
Peter Pettigrew felt bad, but before he could react, he was magically bound by Zicomo.
"Very good! Zicomo, I'll ask you to show him what he is," Harry said.
"Don't worry, Sirius isn't there yet, and we lack a significant witness. 35
"what do you mean?"
"Come on, call Sirius, let's find Dumbledore, he probably hasn't left Hogwarts yet."
Zicomo took Harry to the owl shack, where Sirius was hiding.
The pets allowed at Hogwarts are generally only small animals such as owls, cats, toads, etc. The big black dog of Sirius Animagus is definitely not allowed in.
In order to let Sirius sneak into Hogwarts, Harry asked Zicomo to help him. Zicomo thought about it and lent him the Mimic Veil.
So Sirius turned into Harry's second owl and hid in the owl shack.
Sirius saw the mouse in Harry's hand, and he was about to jump at him.
Zicomo waved his hand to restrain Sirius, and blocked his mouth by the way.
They were on a night tour now, and while Zicomo didn't care about Filch, it would be a problem if the noise was too loud to draw him here.
"You better calm down first."
After all, Zicomo dragged him to the principal's office with the Floating Charm.
Sirius looked at Harry with puzzled eyes, and Harry explained in a low voice in Sirius's ear: "We're going to Dumbledore now, and we can talk about what we can do there. Don't make too much noise now, lest Filch Discover our night tour.
Arriving at the door of the principal's office, Zicomo started a new round of signing up dessert names, until he read Lemon Snow Treasure Candy, and the stairs leading to the office slowly rose.
Harry looked at it with an eye-opener, it turns out that the password in the principal's office can still be played like this?
When he came to the headmaster's office, the office was empty at this time, and Harry thought Dumbledore had left the school.
In the next instant, however, Dumbledore walked down the stairs beside him, which was his lounge.
Seeing how he was wearing pajamas, he was obviously ready to rest.
In fact, Dumbledore didn't fall asleep for a long time when he received a message that someone had entered the office.
Then he saw Zicomo and Harry, and Sirius hanging in the air behind him by the Levitation Charm.
"I didn't expect that Sirius, who was hunted down by the Ministry of Magic for more than half a month, was caught by you like this." Dumbledore said with some admiration.
"You didn't expect a lot. For example, you didn't expect that the protagonist tonight was not just Sirius." Zicomo replied.
・・For flowers 0‥.......
"Oh? Is there anything else that old man like me doesn't know?
Zicomo didn't answer, but motioned for Harry to throw the rat he was holding onto the ground, and then used an anti-Animagus spell to make Peter Pettigrew appear.
Dumbledore was a little shocked to see this scene, he didn't expect Peter Pettigrew to be dead.
At the same time, he also realized that what happened back then might have some hidden meanings.
Seeing Sirius struggling as if he had something to say, Dumbledore asked, "Well, it seems that things are more complicated than I thought, can Sirius' mouth be loosened first?
Hearing this, Zicomo waved his hand to release all the restraints of Sirius.
On the way to the principal's office, Sirius had calmed down, and after being released, he did not pounce on Peter Pettigrew, who was tied on the ground.
"Okay, let's talk slowly about what happened back then.
Zicomo dropped this sentence and walked aside to tease Phoenix.
"So, can anyone help me as an old man? 35 Dumbledore looked at Harry and asked.
Harry repeated what Sirius had told him, and Dumbledore thought about it.
Peter Pettigrew, who had been silent since he was changed back to his original form, suddenly retorted loudly: "Injustice! These are all reasons that Black made up. I cheated my death to avoid his pursuit. You see, now he has found out. My trace, escaped from Azkaban to hunt me down.
Peter Pettigrew tried to quibble, he insisted that Sirius was the secrecy keeper, and Sirius naturally could not produce evidence to refute.
However, Peter Pettigrew, who had been a mouse in Ronald's house for a long time, forgot that there is a potion in the wizarding world called Veritaserum, and as Snape's apprentice, Zicomo happened to have this potion.
"Whether what you said is true or not, you'll know if you verify it.
Zicomo took out a bottle of Veritaserum and poured it all into Peter Pettigrew's mouth.
Then Zicomo asked, "Tell me, what happened back then?"
"Back then, Black proposed to the Potters to replace the secrecy with me, but I chose to surrender to Lord Voldemort and betrayed the Potters.99
Seeing Peter Pettigrew finally admit it, Sirius grabbed his collar and asked, "Why did we betray us when we treated you well?
"Treat me well?" Peter Pettigrew sneered, "Oh, I'm just a foil for the rest of you, when did you really take me seriously?"
"As you said when you proposed changing the secrecy, who cares about the most inconspicuous existence in a group of four?"
"You didn't even ask me if I was really willing to accept it, and you gave me such a dangerous thing. In order to save my life, I had to choose to inform Lord Voldemort."
When Sirius heard this, he punched Peter Pettigrew angrily.
"We don't care about you? If we don't care about you, why take you to play with us when we go to school? Don't forget your Animagus or we did it for you! 359
