Slytherin common room.
Lucas, who was celebrating, suddenly sensed that his magic imprint was triggered.
This imprint has no other effect than just serving as a warning.
He looked in the direction of the Whomping Willow.
It appears that Peter Pettigrew has already led Sirius and the others to the Shrieking Shack.
Making an excuse, he left the Slytherin common room alone.
When he walked to the gate of the castle, he unexpectedly saw Professor Snape running fast in front of him.
…
How do normal people react when they see a wanted criminal?
Most people would probably be afraid.
Some people will quickly pick up the phone to call the police or use the floo to call the aurors in the case of wizards.
However, regardless of the age and size difference between the two parties, the only one stupid enough to rush to fight the wanted criminal is probably Harry Potter because he has been conditioned to have absolutely no preservation instincts.
Even if Sirius was imprisoned in Azkaban for 12 years, he is still an adult.
And for nearly a year, this guy has been fed by Luna, so in terms of strength, Harry was really no match for Sirius.
The two fought for some time, with Sirius being careful not to hurt Harry.
Then Harry finally remembered that he is a wizard that can use magic and pulled out his wand.
Seeing his godson pointing a wand at himself, Sirius laughed out loud.
It's just that there is a trace of sadness in the laughter.
"Are you going to kill me, huh?"
"Why did you betray my parents, weren't you good friends?"
Harry's questioning voice just fell when Ron on the side said nervously: "Harry, stop asking questions, just hand him over to Dumbledore, he is the most wanted criminal."
Harry turned a deaf ear to his friends' reminders.
Seeing the anger in Harry's eyes, Sirius still had a smile on his face, and then he yelled, "I'm not the one who betrayed them, Harry!"
"What did you say?" Harry froze.
The strength he used to restrain Sirius also relaxed a lot.
"What do you mean by that? Tell me clearly!"
"I said it wasn't me who betrayed James and Lily, it was Peter Pettigrew!"
"You're talking nonsense, Peter Pettigrew died a long time ago, he was killed by you, do you think I don't know that?"
Harry felt like Sirius was trying to deceive him so he raised the wand in his hand angrily.
It seems that he intended to cast a spell.
At this critical moment Professor Lupin's voice came from outside the door: "Expelliarmus!"
The Disarming Charm hit Harry's wand with precision.
Seeing Professor Lupin walking step by step.
Out of trust, Harry obeyed him and let go of the strangled Sirius.
But what happened next absolutely shocked him.
Remus pulled Sirius up from the ground, and the two embraced.
And Sirius looked particularly excited at this time.
"He is here Moony, I finally got him!"
"Calm down, Padfoot!"
"I can't calm down, I've been waiting for this moment for 12 years, Moony, kill him, kill him quickly!"
Harry and Ron were horrified by their conversation.
Obviously, both of them believed that the person Sirius wanted to kill was Harry Potter.
There was sadness and disappointment in Harry's eyes, the feeling of betrayal was too much for him.
He looked at Professor Lupin and asked, "Are you guys on this together? So it's really you who brought him into the castle."
"Professor Snape and Lucas' guesses were not wrong, you really lied to me, and I foolishly chose to believe your nonsense."
Remus's expression was a little unnatural.
"Harry, listen to my explanation, it's not what you think, in fact Sirius was wronged."
"Wronged?" Harry showed a puzzled expression.
He remembered what Sirius said just now, and said after a little thought.
"Tell me everything."
Seeing that Remus was going to explain, Sirius said impatiently: "Moony, when will you stop dawdling?"
"Don't worry, Padfoot, Harry has a right to know the truth."
Remus comforted his companion, and looked at Harry who was hiding in the corner again.
"Actually, the person who betrayed James and Lily was Peter Pettigrew. Sirius went to hunt him down, but he cunningly escaped."
"Before he escaped, he cut off his own finger and destroyed the entire street, killing a bunch of muggles, and finally succeeded in putting the blame on Sirius for these crimes."
"How can you prove that what you're saying is true?"
Harry couldn't believe the guy in front of him right now.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, Sirius came to Harry and Ron violently.
"Because Peter Pettigrew is here, and he's the stinky rat in Weasley's hand!"
"Impossible! Scabbers has been in my family..."
"12 years! What kind of rat lives 12 years? Only him, because he's an Animagus!"
"Prove it to me!" Harry said coldly.
Seeing this, the two picked up their wands and aimed at the rat in Ron's hand.
Professor Snape chose this exact moment to rush over and interrupt them.
"Expelliarmus!"
Two spells in a row knocked the wands of Remus and Sirius into the air.
Seeing Snape appearing at the door, Remus's momentum weakened a lot.
"Severus, you listen to our explanation first!"
Remus' following words didn't come out, because Professor Snape's wand was aimed at his mouth.
He was planning to cast a spell as soon as he opened his mouth to keep talking.
Looking at the embarrassed duo in front of him, a small smile appeared on Snape's mouth.
"This feeling of revenge is really exhilarating!"
"Snivellus, you greasy bat!"
Although he was being pointed at by the wand now, Sirius kept retreating nervously, but couldn't help but provoke Professor Snape by using his school nickname.
Remus made eye contact with his friend several times trying to get him to stop, but was ignored by the other party.
Looking at the obviously angry Professor Snape, Remus sighed helplessly.
"Severus, calm down and let me explain it to you."
"No, no, I think the dementors would be more willing to listen to your explanations, especially Mr. Fugitive."
At the mention of Dementors, Sirius shuddered.
After spending such a long time in Azkaban it's normal to show such a reaction when hearing about them.
Even Bellatrix, that crazy woman, turns pale when talking about the dementors.
Professor Snape seemed to enjoy the look of fear on his face.
He pressed his wand hard on Sirius' face.
"Mr. Wanted, how about I call the dementors now, what do you think?"
The terrified look in Sirius' eyes greatly satisfied Snape's desire for revenge.
He took two steps back, motioning for Remus to stand beside his friend.
"Professor Lupin, it seems that you need to go to Azkaban with your friend."
After saying that, Snape looked at Harry and Ron who were beside him.
"Potter, Weasley, you both leave first."
His original intention was that he was afraid of hurting Harry in the fight.
But when Professor Snape was busy taunting his old rival, Harry had already got Ron's wand.
When he took his wand out from behind his back, Professor Snape wasn't surprised.
He just thought that in the face of the betrayer of his parents, Harry wanted to take revenge by himself.
So he reminded him again, "Mr. Potter, leave this to me, you leave first!"
He just finished speaking when suddenly Harry's wand turned on him.
"Expelliarmus!"
Seeing the spell coming at himself, Professor Snape stared in disbelief.
Don't say that just Snape didn't think of Harry doing that, even the other three were stunned by this action.
Fortunately, Lucas arrived just in time.
The same disarming spell bounced Harry's spell towards the ceiling.
clap clap~!
Lucas entered the room applauding.
"It's wonderful, Harry, you really show an eye-opening attitude with the person who came to help you."
Hearing Lucas' words, Harry's face flushed red.
Sirius glared at the blond boy who entered.
He couldn't wait to pounce on him and bite off a piece of meat right now.
"Oh? Isn't this Sirius Black, why doesn't he turn into a dog to escape?"
As soon as the words came out, Sirius and Remus figured it out right away.
The young man in front of them really knew the identity of Sirius long ago.
Professor Snape was also looking at Lucas at this moment.
Someone as smart as him immediately sensed the meaning of Lucas' words.
Thinking of everyone working so hard looking for Sirius.
And this guy clearly knew where the mutt was but didn't say anything.
Snape's already bad mood got even worse.
Lucas looked around and said, "Yes, everyone is here, so Peter Pettigrew, how long are you going to hide?"
The rat in Ron's hand fell off the ground, and under the watchful eyes of Harry and Ron, it gradually returned to its human form.
"Peter Pettigrew?"
Seeing Harry's surprised expression, he said to him, "Hello Harry!"
