Chapter 88 Key Points
【Open. 】
"Why did you come to this place again? Do you want to share the toilet with me?"
Myrtle giggled and floated in front of Annie. She tilted her head and said curiously, "You don't seem to be in a good mood."
Annie smiled lightly, noncommittal.
"It's already two o'clock in the morning, so you don't have to worry about a professor catching you." Myrtle sat in a sink, crossed her legs and said quietly.
"Professors won't have the time to pay attention to where I went at midnight, Myrtle." Annie looked at the dark hole under her feet and jumped down without hesitation.
The secret room is still the same as last year, eerie, the only change is that there is no longer the [-]-foot snake skin left by the basilisk in the passage.
The corpse of the basilisk was still lying in the middle of the aisle in the secret room, and Snape didn't use the skin, bone, and flesh of the basilisk as a potion ingredient, which surprised Annie.
She walked slowly to the corpse of the basilisk. The blood of the snake that had already flowed out printed the ground with a hideous black and red color. It may be because half of the basilisk's body had been soaked in the water before, and it had become rotten. The other side of the body is quite normal.
With a calm face, Annie took out a sharp cutting knife from the storage bag, tapped the basilisk's corpse lightly, walked slowly to the waist and abdomen, and cut it open with force, revealing the blood-red flesh. He took out a bag, put some pieces of meat in it, and picked out a section of extremely tough snake tendon.
When she saw the snake teeth on the floor, she hesitated a little, took out a delicate crystal bottle, stretched out her wand and said a spell, the other fang of the basilisk was pulled out, Anne held the fang carefully, He used the crystal bottle to catch the venom, and a thick milky yellow liquid slowly flowed into the crystal bottle.
Annie waited patiently for the venom to run out, covered the entire crystal vial with a special film, and then put the two fangs together. She looked up at the stone statue of Salazar Slytherin, and from the throat There was a sigh.
She slowly walked to the place where she was lying, stopped for a while, and then sat down slowly, supporting her body with her hands. The ground was icy cold, but she didn't notice it, and sat silently. For several minutes.
"It's better here," Annie murmured, "Quiet." She closed her eyes, enjoying the brief peace.
……
"Good morning, Annie," Myrtle said briskly, "You won't be able to sleep in there, will you?"
Annie gathered her robe and looked down at the ray of sunlight coming in from the bathroom window. She stretched out her hand and felt a bit of warmth at her fingertips.
"Yeah, I had a good night's sleep in it." She said gently.
……
Harry said in amazement, "Why are you there? You know it's the Marauder's Map?"
"Of course," Lupine waved his hand impatiently, "I was involved in making it—I'm Moony, and someone suddenly dropped the Marauder's Map on my desk, and I opened it—and then Seeing you guys around the Whomping Willow, you sneaked out of the castle, I think you used the invisibility cloak—"
"You know the Invisibility Cloak?" Harry asked confused, "Of course, how many times have I seen James use it!" Lupine's expression became more impatient, he looked very excited, as if he couldn't wait to do something, "I see When I saw two people who would never appear in Hogwarts, I didn't believe my own eyes at first, how could they stay with you two?"
"Then I saw Sirius drag the two of them into the whooping willow tunnel—"
"It's me!" Ron said angrily, "You're just one of them, Ron." Lupine said flatly, "Are you still holding on to that mouse? Hold on to it, and don't let him get away."
Ron choked, and Scabbers, who had been playing dead, began to wriggle so hard that he grabbed hold of its long, bald tail, and Crookshanks jumped onto Sirius' shoulder and hissed at it.
"Peter Pettigrew died with only one finger left," Harry said, and Lupine nodded. "Well, at least we've been thinking he's been dead for 12 years—"
"Yeah, 12 years! Little Peter is slightly ahead of me, but not this time!" Sirius growled, trying to rush to grab Scabbers, but Lupine stopped him, "They need to know the truth, we have to explain — Sirius!"
"The truth!" he roared. "The truth is that he betrayed James and Lily by betraying the information to Voldemort!"
Harry's heart went cold in an instant, Hermione covered her mouth, she looked at the gaffe-crazed Sirius in front of her, and it was hard for her to see him as the same person as the elegant, handsome and handsome man in the future.
Ron said weakly, "I've had enough! I've had enough! You're all crazy!" He struggled to get to his feet, but Harry grabbed his shoulders and ruthlessly took Scabbers out of his hand.
"Then why were you picked up by Annie? You went to her on purpose, right?" Harry said coldly.
Sirius smiled strangely, "Deliberately? No, when I escaped from Azkaban in the form of a dog and swam to the shore port, there was a girl sitting under a street lamp gnawing bread - I saw Recognized her, she looked exactly like Lily when she was a child—"
"Then why did you run back again?" Scabbers writhed in Harry's hand, Harry grabbed it by the neck with a little force, and Sirius stared at Scabbers in his hand, a terrible look appeared on his face. Horny, "I can tell you anything you want - but not now! I've been waiting 12 years for this day!"
"Siris, he can't run away." Lupine put his arm around his shoulders, "Ah... I think I need to tell you something... I think Hermione has already guessed it, she has always been The smartest witch at Hogwarts."
Crookshanks had already run back to Hermione at this moment. Hermione nodded at Lupine, who looked gentle, and she said to Harry and Ron who were puzzled, "Professor Lupine is a werewolf, so he is a werewolf." Will be calling in sick before the full moon, so he's been looking bad-"
Harry and Ron stared at her blankly, "Well... it would damage Professor Lupine's career if it was said, so I didn't tell anyone." She said awkwardly, "But I think more than I know it alone, and Annie must have guessed it before me."
Lupine smiled. "Yeah, you two have always been smart girls—"
Even if Sirius wanted to kill Peter again, he had to be distracted at this time, "Of course! Annie has been smart since she was a child!" He said triumphantly, "She used James' wand to cast magic spells when she was a child." Curse, now it is stronger than the magic power of an adult!"
"But the only thing I hate is her academy!" Sirius snorted coldly, "and that snotty one."
Lupine was serious and tired, "Okay Sirius, Harry, I think it's all because of me—" The door was suddenly opened with a "squeak", everyone looked at the door vigilantly, Lupine frowned Close the door.
"The Screaming Shack was built because of me, and the Whomping Willow was planted because of me. The story begins when I was bitten when I was a child..."
Hermione listened intently to Lupine's story about how Dumbledore won admission for him, how he became friends with James Sirius and Peter, and then they discovered Lupine's secret and made a bold decision-to become Argentine. Nimagus accompanied him, saying that he had been struggling with whether to tell Dumbledore about the Animagus, and when he got to the Marauder's Map, Harry cried out, "So the four of you made the Marauder's Map!"
"That's right, the map was confiscated by Filch later, but I didn't expect it to be returned to you." Lupine said.
"Fred and George gave it to Anne," Harry said with a flash of inspiration, "so she already knew Scabbers was Peter Pettigrew, because the name can be displayed on the Marauder's Map."
"That's right!" Sirius said, "When I knew that she got the most proud work of our life, I knew I couldn't stay in her bedroom any longer, so I ran to the Forbidden Forest. Don't believe me, it knows I'm not a dog, but it gradually trusts me. But it doesn't want to bring Peter to me, saying it will bring trouble to its owner, and Annie doesn't want it to catch Peter , I stole the Marauder's Map when you all went to the Quidditch game that day--Harry, you fly very well. In order for Remus to get the truth, I asked the cat to take the Marauder's Map Sent it to his office and it was so clever, it knew what I meant—"
"Her dorm?" Hermione screamed, startling everyone. "How can you be in her dorm?! You're a grown man!"
Sirius seemed to be aware of this problem for the first time, he opened his mouth, a little embarrassed, "Oh... I just go back to the dormitory to sleep under the bed at night, and Annie always treats me like a dog..." He seemed a little Feel guilty, don't go any further.
Apparently to Hermione, Lupine being a werewolf, Peter being Scabbers, and Sirius being White couldn't be more outraged than the fact that Sirius was living in Anne's bedroom, "You're her godfather! Are you saying that you are a dog and you will always be a dog?! She is 13 years old! She is not a child anymore! Besides, there are other people in that dormitory!"
"Why is this little girl scarier than a dementor?" Sirius muttered.
"Siris Black!" Hermione was trembling with anger, even Harry, who only wanted to hear the truth, felt a little scared, and said cautiously, "Hermione, let's listen to Professor Lupin first..." Hermione Min stared fiercely at Sirius with her arms folded, and she let out a breath through her nose.
"So, I think sometimes Professor Snape is right about me..." Lupine sighed, and Sirius snorted coldly, "He's been telling Professor Dumbledore this year that I'm not trustworthy, he There's a reason, Sirius did a prank once that nearly cost him his life—"
"He deserves it." Sirius sneered, "Sneaky trying to find out what we're doing, expecting us to be fired..."
"Snape was very interested in where I went every month," Lupine said to the three of Harry. "We were in the same year, um - we didn't get on very well. He really hated James, I think. Jealous of James' talent on the Quidditch pitch, anyway Snape saw me across the field with Madam Pomfrey one night, and she sent me to the Whomping Willow to transfigure. Sirius, just for fun, told Snape said he could follow me in by pounding the knot in the trunk with a long stick. Of course, Snape tried that - if he followed this house, he would meet a beastly beast Your father heard what Sirius did, risked his life to catch up with Snape, and dragged him out...but Snape saw me at the other end of the tunnel, and Dumbledore forbade him to tell anyone else, However, since then he has known what I am..."
"That's why Snape doesn't like you," Harry said slowly, "he thinks you were involved in that prank"
"That's right." A cold sarcasm came from the wall behind Lupine.
Snape took off the invisibility cloak, pointed his wand at Lupine, Hermione grabbed Harry's arm in shock, Harry felt an electric current pass through his body, and Sirius jumped up.
"I found this under the Whomping Willow, it's very useful, Potter." Snape threw the Invisibility Cloak aside and smiled coldly, "Very good... look who it is... I found the map you mentioned on your desk, saw you walking towards the Whomping Willow, and then disappeared."
"Severus, I think you've misunderstood something..." Lupine said eagerly.
Snape pointed his wand at his head and said coldly, "I really didn't expect that you would use this old place to shelter your old friend again, Lupine, I have been persuading Dumbledore to take good care of you, a tamed Werewolves, still have a thrilling wildness, don't they? I think Azkaban will welcome two harmful people tonight..."
"You idiot, is it worth sending an innocent person to Azkaban for the holidays of your school years?" Lupine asked softly.
The rope came out from between the wands, binding Lupine firmly, causing him to lose his balance and fall to the ground. Sirius roared and rushed to Snape, but Snape's wand was pointed at the center of his eyebrows.
"How good revenge tastes," said Snape softly, "how I long to catch you myself..."
Harry stared blankly at the scene in front of him, Hermione said nervously, "Professor Snape, Sirius is really innocent—"
"Shut up, Granger!" Snape snapped, "You're already facing expulsion, all three of you! Hanging out with murderers and werewolves! You've always been talkative, shut up!"
"I can go back to the castle with you, but you have to give that mouse to Dumbledore." Sirius turned pale, and Snape sneered, "Back to the castle? Black, as soon as I walk out of this tree, I will There are hundreds of dementors vying to give you a kiss..."
The last trace of blood in Sirius also disappeared.
"Didn't Annie tell you! There's something wrong with that mouse!" Harry yelled, and Snape glared at him fiercely. "She warned you that there was something wrong with the mouse! Scabbers is Peter Pettigrew!"
Snape narrowed his eyes, "Don't mention Anne Potter to me, you should be glad that she didn't join forces with you today, but also, she is not like your father, arrogant, conceited—"
"Poor you!" Harry roared, "just because they played tricks on you at school, you won't even—"
When they quarreled towards each other, no one realized that there was a slight sound of footsteps coming upstairs. Crookshanks pricked up his ears and let out a joyful cry, and Hermione only felt her heart Throbbing for a moment, she subconsciously looked towards the door, but there was no one there.
"Shut up! Don't talk to me like that!" Snape screamed, seemingly out of his mind, crazier than before, "Like father, like son, Potter, I just saved your life You should kneel on the ground and thank me! You deserve to be killed by him, because you are as arrogant as your father! Now, give me all out!"
Harry had made up his mind, however, and before Snape could step out, he drew his wand and called, "Expelliarmus!"
There were actually three flashes of red light hitting Snape's chest. He obviously didn't expect to be attacked, but a transparent barrier swallowed the red light.
"Don't be impatient, friends, attacking the professor is not something to talk about."
Annie stood at the door with a wand in her hand, she said calmly.
