Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 747: Peter’s story


  Chapter 748 Peter's Story

   The door of the dormitory was slammed shut, the voices of Harry and Ron gradually faded away, and the room fell into a dead silence.

   After an unknown amount of time, a mouse crawled out from under the bed, ran onto the table and started nibbling at the snack bag, nibbling at the snacks Harry and Ron brought back from the Honey Duke candy store.

   Banban prefers human food to those for mice.

   This eating style has something to do with Scabbers once being a human.

  Yes, the rat named Scabber was a human, not a rat.

  Although he has lived in the body of a mouse for more than ten years, he was also a wizard, a wizard named Pettigrew Peter.

   That's right, it is the same name as Pettigrew Peter who was killed by Sirius Black and finally received the Merlin First Class Medal, or Pettigrew Peter is his past.

   If anyone says that, he must be crazy.

   Everyone thought Black was crazy, and Peter wanted his old friend to be crazy.

   However, not only did Black not drive the Dementors crazy, but his mind was so clear that he could even spot his tracks in a newspaper.

   After Sirius Black escaped from prison, Peter knew that Black was not crazy, especially from the intelligence he heard from Mr. Weasley, that there were various signs before Black's escape that the other party had found out that he was still alive, so Desperate to escape from Azkaban and try to break into Hogwarts Castle and kill himself.

   all of this is so crazy, and Sirius Black has tried it once, and although he fails, Peter knows Sirius Black and the guy will never let him go easily.

   The seemingly well-protected Hogwarts Castle is not as safe as it seems, and Blake knows the location of most of the secret passages in the castle, and can easily enter the castle through the outer guards.

   This made Peter Pettigrew worried all the time, afraid that Blake would suddenly appear that day and kill himself.

   Even, if Sirius Black's mind was clearer, he didn't have to risk killing Peter, as long as Peter was forced to restore his original shape and let everyone know that Pettigrew Peter was still alive, then he would be out of luck.

  "It's all your fault!"

  Peter looked at the photo of the Potters on the bedside table, and the hatred in his heart was slowly growing. He has been living in disguise as a mouse for more than ten years, but how many more years in his life?

   He hated it all.

   Looking at the Potters dancing in the photo, Peter fell silent.

   He remembered that when he was still in school at Hogwarts, the power of the mysterious man had spread throughout the British wizarding world. Every time a Dark Mark appeared above a house, it meant that someone had been murdered by a Death Eater, and it was the darkest period in Britain.

   Peter actually knew that James had always believed that his family's dragon pox had something to do with the Death Eaters, and because they were unwilling to yield or remain neutral, the Death Eaters murdered James' relatives in a despicable way .

   causing people to suffer from dragonpox was a popular method of murder in those years, and it is said that the only Muggle minister in the British wizarding world died of a dragonpox attack.

   At the time, Peter persuaded Potter to take Lily out of England and away from those dangers, but James refused, even roaring at him: "I don't want to be a coward, and I won't hide, You-Know-Who can't let me Don't let my family give in, don't make me give in, I will resist them to the end."

   At that time, the power of mysterious people was simply not something they could fight against.

   The four had just graduated from school and joined the Order of the Phoenix, an anti-mystery organization formed by Dumbledore.

   Actually, Peter didn't really want to join the Order of the Phoenix, he just wanted to live in peace, but he eventually joined the Order of the Phoenix.

  Peter hates Potter's so-called bravery. What good is fighting against the most evil monster in history but losing his own life?

   Isn't your life more important?

   Does he intend to put Lily, who follows him, in danger too?

  If they're dead, they don't even have a future, so what's the point.

   Everyone said that the You-Know-Who was afraid of Dumbledore, but the situation was still not optimistic, and Dumbledore didn't have much energy to protect them.

   Well, after joining the Order of the Phoenix, Peter realized that the noble cause of the Order of the Phoenix is ​​to try to save more people, and then fight against the mysterious man together.

   But, what does that have to do with him, is he putting his own life on it in order to save innocent lives?

  Peter genuinely disliked the Order of the Phoenix.

  Especially after joining the Order of the Phoenix, Peter has always been worried, afraid that Voldemort will one day appear at the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix. I am afraid that when I go out to perform a mission one day, I will be caught by the minions of the mysterious man, tortured severely, and finally lose my life.

   However, the nightmare soon became a reality!

  Voldemort appeared on his doorstep. Fortunately, when Peter returned, he didn't find the Dark Mark floating above their house.

   Instead of killing Peter and his mother, Voldemort gave him a choice.

   surrender or die.

   Or, Voldemort saw this as a good opportunity to plant spies in Dumbledore's Order of the Phoenix, so Peter and his mother survived.

   If he hadn't joined the Order of the Phoenix, this might not have happened, and his mother wouldn't have been affected by it.

   However, there is no if.

  At first, Peter actually thought about asking Dumbledore for help, asking Dumbledore to save his mother, and asking Dumbledore to hide them, but Peter knew very well that betraying Voldemort was the only way out.

   However, what shakes him is what the Death Eaters have shown him.

   Whether it's the Ministry of Magic or the Order of the Phoenix's self-confessed informants, many of them are actually Voldemort's people, and his influence spreads throughout the British wizarding world, all of which make Peter feel extremely hopeless.

   He knew he had no choice.

  "What's the point of rejecting it? Are you impatient?"

   Peter Pettigrew didn't forget what he said when delivering a message to Ludo Bagman.

   Ludo Bagman, apparently much smarter than him, used his relationship with August Rookwood to get a job at the Ministry of Magic.

   You can't play Quidditch for the rest of your life. If you retire better, you will become a Quidditch coach, but joining the Ministry of Magic and Sports is obviously a better choice.

   And he's not branded with the Dark Mark, like Peter, he can still make excuses for himself even if he ends up being accused of delivering messages for Voldemort.

   After that conversation, Pettigrew Peter completely compromised, and he also wanted to make some money for himself through Voldemort, as many wizards like Voldemort were loyal to.

   In helping Voldemort gather intelligence on the Order of the Phoenix, Peter didn't do his best to do this, but just revealed some less important information to Voldemort.

   In fact, Peter didn't have access to too important news.

   Later, Voldemort learned of a prophecy, and James' son was the person in the prophecy. After learning that the Potter family was going to hide, Voldemort asked him to become Potter's secrecy, and promised to let him Get him a good spot at the Ministry of Magic.

   Actually, Peter knew for a long time that even if Voldemort didn't promise those things, he had no choice.

  Voldemort's power is in full swing, the Ministry of Magic has long been infiltrated into a plug by the Death Eaters, all the efforts of the Order of the Phoenix are of no use~IndoMTL.com~ After he betrayed the Order of the Phoenix and his former friends, there is nothing else Choosing, Peter has no courage to betray Voldemort.

   He doesn't want to die yet.

  Everything went better than expected, Peter told James that he was not as brave as Black, Lupin, and James, and the situation was getting worse and worse, and he was terrified and wanted to hide abroad, But he was afraid that Lupin and Black would call him a coward, so Peter wanted to be the Potters' secret keeper, and then he could hide in plain sight, where the You-Know-Who and the Death Eaters couldn't find him.

  James agreed, and apologized to Peter.

   "It's too late, I can't look back." Peter, who changed back into human form, looked at the photo of the Potters and muttered.

  Black will never give up easily, he will definitely break into Hogwarts Castle again and try to kill himself.

   Before Black gets caught again, he has to play dead once, and the mad cat just keeps chasing him, which is a good opportunity for him.

  Peter put a few cat hairs he collected on the ground, bit his palm, smeared blood on Ron's sheet, and then turned back into a mouse and ran away.
