Chapter 97
Sirius saw that Lupine was dressed in bright clothes and "greasy hair and pink noodles", and felt that Lupine might have fallen for Lucius and the others.
He was a straight-talking guy, and indeed he still regarded Lupine as a friend, so he asked straightforwardly.
Lupine wanted to retort, but after thinking about it again, Sirius was sucked by dementors for nine years, and thinking about people and things in a bad way is the lack of good side effects in his heart, so he should be more considerate, so he said in harmony: "My situation Fortunately, the company I work for is not as bad as you think. This time, the company thinks that we are old and more suitable for this job, so it is handed over to me."
He continued: "I deeply feel that I owe you something, at least I owe you a solemn apology. I'm sorry, Sirius, I really should have trusted you more."
Sirius fell into the memories, and laughed: "In the first few years, when I thought about this incident, I was really angry, and then I gradually figured it out. I think, if someone else was killed, you would probably be partial to me , but the sufferer is James, you will stand up for the sufferer, and I would do the same, especially in those years when you were wandering outside, and we acted as free Aurors (Order of the Phoenix), we had little contact for several years, and were unfamiliar with each other gone."
Lupine also looked nostalgic, "Yeah, it seems that ten years have passed in a blink of an eye."
After changing the subject, he said: "The company hopes to reach a private deal with you. Of course, this is not a threat. Even if you don't make this deal, you will be wronged. Maybe the real culprit is on the way now."
Sirius was confused again, jokingly said "" "Oh? Is it so good? When did those people change their sex?"
Lupine was full of patience: "There is no such gang, only that, specifically the Shafik family."
"Huh?" Sirius was a little surprised.
"Why, the name of the Shafiq family can be passed into Azkaban?"
"No, I'm talking about Stanley Shafik. When that guy went to prison, he left a deep impression on me. Before him, I never saw a person's temperament change so much."
Lupine nodded and said: "What's more interesting is that Stanley's wife and children are also extraordinary. In a few years, they went from almost sleeping on the streets to becoming a rich man who has led the change of the times."
Sirius started to think about things badly again: "It's really weird, no matter when they were in school or a few years ago, those two were not outstanding characters, how could they change so much?"
"If you want to know them, there will be opportunities in the future." Lupine released an important message: "What I want to say is that Voldemort is coming back again, and the second half of the wizard war will start. I let go of the resentment for my werewolf curse and become what I am now, that is Prepare for war."
"Last time, we lost almost all the good things. At that time, we were too young and immature to be of much help. Now, it is the backbone. It's our turn to protect the latecomers."
Sirius leaned back, closed his eyes, and gently touched the wall with the back of his head.
Suddenly said: "Is the news reliable? I mean Voldemort."
"It's true that he didn't die. He was seriously injured and hid because of Harry. When he rises again, he must use Harry to sacrifice the flag."
"Harry is going to Hogwarts next year, right?"
"Ok."
"That's why you want to be a school manager?"
"Yes or no, Dumbledore has been secretly watching over Harry. The school manager's qualification is mainly because the Shafik family has made a big move in Hogwarts, and it is convenient to have at least the authority of a professor."
"It's just the professorship, Dumbledore can decide, right?"
"What if the other party is only eleven years old?"
Sirius' eyes widened: "You're not kidding, are you?"
"No kidding, this 11-year-old Kane Shafik is the youngest Potions Master ever, a recipient of the Order of Merlin First Class, and a Highland Baron recognized by the Muggle government. On September 1, this At King's Cross Station, the boy easily cut an alpha-level werewolf black wizard into a human pig,
I have seen it with my own eyes. The Unforgivable Curse can be removed. "
Sirius couldn't believe his ears. He stared at Lupine for a long time, and then muttered to himself: "The outside world has indeed changed too much!"
Lupine whispered "Yes!" He knew that Sirius was convinced by him...
Meanwhile, Kane is attending Peter Pettigrew's third trial.
Of course, there are no public security, prosecutors, and courts in the wizarding world. These three halls are Dumbledore and others representing Hogwarts, Fudge and others representing the British Ministry of Magic, and Crouch and others representing the International Federation of Magic.
Dumbledore and others were able to participate mainly because Pettigrew Peter was hiding in Hogwarts.
To be precise, he is Percy Weasley's magic pet. In the original historical line, next year, Percy will dump Scabbers to his younger brother Ron, and replace him with an owl, because he is going to be a prefect, and the mouse pet seems too big. Frustration, in order to change pets, he made a lot of plans.
And Kane easily bought the pet from Percy, which made Percy very happy that he made a fortune.
"I was afraid of being persecuted by Sirius, so I kept transforming into hiding."
Pettigrew is not lying but playing rogue. He is too afraid of the consequences of pleading guilty.
Crouch raised his eyebrows and wanted to use punishment.
Kane saw Crouch's intentions, he stood up and said: "Because everyone here is a civilized person, I suggest using a civilized method to seek the truth."...
In fact, this is just a formality, and the order of interests behind it has long been clarified.
Although the old bee would lose face because Peter Pettigrew had been hiding in Hogwarts for many years, he also used this opportunity to cry poorly to the board of directors.
And Kane also took the opportunity to put his arms around the thick waist of God Money and kick open the door of the school board.
Kane lost no time in promoting his own products again:
"Veritaserum 2.0, the principle is simple and effective, with full consideration of humane feelings. After use, it relaxes and induces hallucinations, making people look down on the world, high-spirited, nonchalant, and courageous. The side effects are mild. The Ministry of Magic and the International Association of Magic are welcome to purchase in bulk. Discount for large quantity..."
Snape, the potion master who participated in the public trial hearing, covered his face. This kind of bad style of painting gave him the urge to end the game and smack people.
Kane also seemed aware that he had spoiled the solemnity of the trial. So he said: "This public trial was shot from multiple angles, as detailed information materials that can be consulted. We can use Muggle editing technology to make this information less lengthy and useless cutscenes, and more fair and objective ..."
People roll their eyes and think, "Isn't that cheating? Only write down what you want others to see?"
But soon, including Snape and Dumbledore, they all felt that editing was necessary.
The effectiveness of Veritaserum 2.0 is indeed even better. After using it, Peter immediately turned into an invincible titan. Spit out the poisonous tongue, pointing at the sky and the earth, there is nothing he doesn't hate, count them one by one, from family members, to friends, to teachers and classmates, Death Eaters, Voldemort, all of them have been scolded by him once.
Naturally, Dumbledore and Snape were also included. The most interesting thing was that Peter had the ability to imitate other people's speech and behavior, and he was very similar, which could be called lifelike.
So he played multiple roles by himself, like a stand-up comedian + Oscar winner + talk show master, vividly reproduced the scenes of the year, and presented the events and characters in his eyes to everyone.
Seeing a group of people look more and more like constipation. Kane smiled in his heart: "I knew that was the case. Although Peter is not a good person, he is not a crazy, cruel and vicious person."
Peter is a disadvantaged person, and his past has revealed some eye-catching social problems. In the little wizarding world, the human nature is cold and the world is cold.
Peter's heart-pounding and vicious tongue for nearly six hours. During this period, he drank more than 20 times and went to the toilet more than ten times. His performance of desire was amazing.
When the last effect of the medicine was over, Pettigrew Peter sat there paralyzed, his eyes lost sight, and he sighed: "I've lived so far, today is the happiest day I've ever lived. Great!"
Kane went forward to check his physical condition, and said with a smile: "Well, I think so too. It is a kind of happiness to have an audience who listens seriously, speaks viciously casually, and no one interrupts. nothing."
Peter smiled weakly. Veritaserum consumes more energy, and he feels very tired now.
Kane turned to the big brothers and said, "The efficacy of the medicine has been confirmed, and now Peter has calmed down."
After speaking, he saluted and stepped aside. This time he only played the role of a pharmacist, and it was more of a duty, and he didn't overwhelm the host.
In fact, there is nothing to say. The evidence is solid, the context is clear, and the details are complete. Just pronounce the sentence directly.
Little Peter was bound to be imprisoned for life.
Theoretically, Sirius, the victim of the case, should also be present.
But by playing with the rules, it cleverly turned into a continuous trial of two cases.
According to what Crouch later said in an interview: Peter's murder of the Potters was a case. Peter's framing of Sirius is another case.
