Chapter 258 Ron Weasley
"You can't do this?" Harry exclaimed. Harry obviously couldn't accept Ron's lack of cooperation. For this reason, he even took the initiative to attack Snape with a curse.
"Why can't you do this..." Harry asked angrily. He took a step forward slightly, as if he wanted to grab Ron's collar, but Fan Lin stopped him.
"Why do you have to catch Scabbers..." Ron said, his eyes full of resentment.
"You know, Sirius, that's a fair question," Lupine said, turning to Black and frowning slightly, "How did you find out where he was?"
Black reached into his robe with a bird-clawed hand and pulled out a crumpled piece of paper. He smoothed the paper and showed it to everyone.
It was a photo of Ron's family that appeared in the Daily Prophet last summer. Ron had spots on his shoulders.
"How did you get this newspaper?" Lupine asked Black, startled.
"Fudge," Black said, "when he was inspecting Azkaban last year, he gave me this newspaper. That was Peter, on the front page of the newspaper... over the boy's shoulder... I recognized him immediately "How many times have I seen him transform? The caption under the photo says that the boy will go back to Hogwarts... to where Harry is..."
"God," Lupine said gently, looking at Scabbers, then at the photo in the newspaper, and then at Scabbers, "its front paws..."
"His front paw is missing a finger..." Fan Lin said, "This is obvious, so..." Fan Lin turned his attention to Ron.
"What else do you want to say?"
"So what?" Ron said regardless.
"It's missing a toe," Black said.
"Of course," Lupine whispered, "So simple...so clever...did he cut it off himself?"
"Just before he transformed," Black said, "I had him cornered and he screamed so loud that the whole street heard that I had betrayed James and Lily. Then, before I could Before he was cursed, he blew up the whole street with the wand hidden behind his back, killing everyone within twenty feet of him, and then fled into the gutter with the other rats..."
"You hear that, Ron?" Lupine said. "The biggest piece of Peter's remains that's ever been found is his finger."
"Well, Banban may have had a fight with another mouse or something else! It has been in our house for many years..."
"Twelve years, right?" said Lupine. "Have you never wondered how it could live so long?"
"We...we've been taking good care of it!" Ron said.
"But he doesn't look too good now, does he?" said Lupine. "I guess he's been losing weight since he heard Black was at large..."
The more Lupine spoke, the paler Ron's face became. Now Snape had fainted, and Harry, Harry chose to believe Fanlin.
Thinking of this, Ron's eyes turned vicious. It's Fanlin again. He is everywhere. When dealing with Malfoy, Fanlin is a bonus in various courses, but he is the opposite, and Hermione... ...Hermione has always been attached to Fanlin, and now, even his best friend Harry no longer trusts him, and he actually asked himself to hand over Scabbers.
The resentment in Ron's eyes became more and more intense as his thoughts deepened. He wanted to use the wand in his hand to destroy Fan Lin, or at least defeat him and prove that he was much stronger than Fan Lin.
But, can it?
Ron couldn't help but ask, Fanlin and Snape were able to fight with all their strength for so long before losing, but he himself was not sure of defeating even Hermione, but...
But now Fanlin seems to have a good chance to defeat him. The magic power is exhausted, which is very fatal. Ron's previous fight with Hermione is nothing at all. The confrontation between the Disarming Curse and the Iron Armor Curse?
Ron's gaze at Fan Lin became dangerous. There was a voice in his heart that kept repeating Fan Lin's various threats and... viciousness?
In short, this is what Ron thinks. He has become very disgusted with Fan Lin. He really hates him, just like he hates Malfoy. He wants to attack him with a curse. He may be able to release it, at least, now.
However, Fan Lin ignored Ron's changing eyes. He was not sure whether Ron was controlled by Peter Pettigrew, but he had to convince Ron. At least, he could not do anything to Ron. Ron did not wrong.
"Yes, it's like this..." Fan Lin said, "A mouse that looks like Peter Pettigrew is missing a finger... a mouse that has lived for twelve years, and then the moment Sirius escapes from prison A mouse that enters the aging stage, and then a mouse that pretends to be dead and wants to hide, doesn’t look like a normal house mouse, Ron.”
Ron's face became paler, and it didn't seem like his whole face would become bloodshot when he was angry as usual.
"I know you want to use Crookshanks as an excuse. In fact, there is nothing wrong with that poor cat, but you want to kill him. What the hell is wrong with you Ron, this is not the you we know." !”
Fan Lin said, he put his hand on Ron's shoulder and looked into Ron's eyes very sincerely.
Ron suddenly trembled all over. He seemed to want to say something, but he couldn't say it when he got to his lips. It seemed that something was completely blocking his throat.
The air seemed to be frozen during the conversation between the two. Because of the spell of Fanlin, the originally cold night became even colder. A wolf howl came from the forest not far away. It was night time. Everything would be thrown into the embrace of the night. When it woke up, it would be a new day, or a new reincarnation.
However, everything outside seemed to be isolated from the Screaming Shack. Even the cold wind blowing through the dilapidated wallboards and recalling the sad sobbing could not affect the silence between the people in the room.
Ron's body was shaking all the time. Perhaps because of the cold, Fanlin noticed that the blood color on Ron's face had completely faded, just like Laura last semester.
At that time, Laura was occupied by Voldemort and her body's magic power was madly absorbed, but Peter Pettigrew obviously didn't need to do this. He was a complete wizard and he didn't need to absorb Ron's magic power.
"Quick...quickly get out of the way..." (To be continued)
