Harry Potter’s Natural Villain Chapter 128: Get the letter
"Your name?"
"Sirius Olain Black"
"The purpose of your coming to Hogwarts"
"Vengeance for the Potters, and kill the traitor. [Read the latest chapters]"
"Who is a traitor?"
"Peter Pettigrew."
Hermione took a step back involuntarily when she heard the words, and accidentally stepped on the hairy tail of Crookshanks, causing the big cat to scream.
"Why do you say that he is a traitor? No matter who you are, you are the secret of the Potters, and you are the traitor." Hermione asked with a trembling voice, and what Blake said was even more incredible than her doubts. .
"The original decision was that I became the Secret Keeper, but at the last minute the Secret Keeper changed to Peter Pettigrew. This was my suggestion to the Potters and his wife. I thought that was the perfect plan.. It was a clever plan.. Voldemort would definitely come after me, but what I didn't expect was that Peter Pettigrew had betrayed the Potters." Still replied blankly, but Hermione saw two lines of tears shed on Blake's face.
She has also drunk Veritaserum. Under the action of the medicine, the person taking it will hardly resist the questioner, and will not show any emotions, but Black still has such a strong mood swing.
Hermione didn't expect that one of her little tricks of delaying time would actually work. The cruel "criminal" actually drank her potion without hesitation.
But what surprised her even more was the "truth" Black said under the effect of Veritaserum.
"So what was the real situation on the street at that time? Since you are innocent, why didn't you redress in Azkaban? You can ask Principal Dumbledore. After the fall of the mysterious man, even some The Death Eaters have whitewashed themselves and are even now at large. Why have you been imprisoned inside for twelve years?" Hermione continued to ask, she needed more information to determine the authenticity.
"At the time, I pushed Peter Pettigrew into a dead end, and he yelled all over the street. He said that I had betrayed James and Lily. Then, before I could curse him, he Blasted the whole street with the magic wand hidden behind him, killing everyone within 20 feet of him, and then fled into the gutter with the other mice... As for Azkaban, it was me who killed him indirectly. To the Potters, this may be another punishment for me,"
Hermione doesn’t know what to say now. If Black hadn’t lied, from her point of view, this approach would be too stupid. Use others’ faults to punish herself. The real murderer is at large. This kind of atonement is true. Does it make sense?
She was thinking that if what Sirius said was true, maybe Harry would not have been so painful as a child.
It may not be all to blame him, Hermione searched for the memory in her mind-Sirius Black was cast into Azkaban without being tried.
"Then why were you locked in a cage before?" Hermione shook her head and told herself not to think about the mess. Now her goal is no longer to delay time, but to get it from Black More information.
"I..." Just as Blake was about to answer, his eyes gradually cleared. He found that his consciousness had recovered. When he answered before, he was like an outsider. He couldn't imagine that he could use it so plainly one day. The tone explains the story of the year.
"It's a terrible potion. I heard that the Ministry of Magic also wanted to use this drug to try me, but it is said that the differences of opinion are too great, and I still can't stop it. I actually used it in this situation today." He looked surprised, his eye sockets were more deeply recessed, and he looked very haggard.
"Harry's friend, can you trust me now?" Black continued.
Hermione is fighting between heaven and man in her heart, constantly analyzing the authenticity of Black's words from all aspects.
She has personally tested the true efficacy of Veritaserum.
Logically speaking, if he really wants to target Harry, there is no need to do so to gain his own trust. By stunned and held hostage, he will be able to achieve his goal.
Plus Crookshanks spared no effort to help him.
And some other examples, such as Hermione while she was stealing the "Powerful Potion", she also read many books about Animagus, this is a very advanced spell, want to maintain Extremely high concentration is required. Peter Pettigrew said that he can only maintain the form of a mouse when he loses his memory, which is also untenable. If he really loses the ability to cast spells, he should be back to his original form at any time.
She also has her own intuition. Deep down in her heart, she is also willing to believe in this unshaven, thin man with a disheveled hair, because in Black’s body, Hermin has received sincerity, which is in contrast to the artificiality that Peter Peter felt before. It is especially strong after getting up.
"Not yet complete." Hermione shook her head and said, "But now I am willing to verify the truth with you." Having said that, Hermione has actually been persuaded.
"I can confront the traitor, but he won't dare. He is intoxicated in his heroic role right now." Black answered Hermione and walked to Malfoy's desk and started rummaging.
"Mr. Black." Hermione said politely, "We don't have time now, and I still have a question. Why did you appear in that cage for the unfinished question just now?" If Black What is said is true, how does this iron cage explain?
"What a nostalgic feeling." At the table, Blake touched a blank old parchment with his slender palm, his eyes full of memories, and he didn't seem to answer.
"Mr. Black, please answer my question. Even if there is no Veritaserum ~IndoMTL.com~ this question is very important. This may be a conspiracy." Hermione repeated seriously.
"Well, it is indeed a shame to admit that I was planted in the hands of a student and a dumb gun." Black shrugged, only half-concealed answering the question, and at the same time showing a grinning smile.
"I found his location." Black pointed to the small ink dot on the map of the point of life and said, moving his body as he spoke, shaking with excitement in his hands, and he seemed to have to rush out directly at any time. A room, go to Peter Pettigrew to confront.
Of course, it is more likely to directly take revenge, and use a green light to directly kill the traitor.
"Do you want to rush straight over like this? Do you know how many Aurors there are now around the school? I don’t know if the thing that looks like a map in your hand is real and effective, but whether it’s true or not, you’re Rushing out so directly will definitely not achieve your goal. The best way for us now is to find Professor Dumbledore, and he will solve all of this." Hermione said calmly, arms opened, and stopped firmly. In front of Sirius, but just after she had said these words, her face suddenly became ugly, because Professor Dumbledore had been away from school for quite some time.
The only teacher she can fully trust is not in Hogwarts now!
