Chapter 72 The Marauder's Map

Harry's performance during the day made the two little friends very worried about him. Ron followed him all afternoon, worried that he would do something terrible, but Harry seemed to forget about it after he swore to kill Pettigrew , behaved normally, but when Ron fell asleep, Harry, who was lying on the next bed, suddenly opened his eyes.

He stood in front of the window, looking at the moonlight outside the window, a little hesitant. Ron, who was lying on the bed next to him, was babbling the most, muttering dreams that no one could understand clearly.

"Sorry, my friend." Harry said in a deep voice, "But there are some things that I have to do alone."

He took the golden sutra under the pillow, put on the cloak of invisibility and left the dormitory. Footsteps were heard in the empty corridor and went straight to the outside of the Gryffindor lounge. The portrait of the fat woman was dozing off, She seemed to hear a muffled voice singing something, but she only saw a white shadow rapidly fading away.

From the perspective of the spirit world, Harry passed through the door of the Gryffindor lounge easily, and he quietly groped towards Filch's office.

"In our student days, we once made a very magical magic prop. James used the magic spell on the Hogwarts castle to bypass some of the Hogwarts anti-magic spells, and fixed the tracking spell on the Made on the map—every Hogwarts student has a unique contractual relationship with this great magic school, and the Sorting Hat is a very important part of it. When students are assigned to various colleges by the Sorting Hat Afterwards, a mysterious contract was reached with this castle."

"When the professors receive the letter of appointment, they will also sign to confirm their connection with Hogwarts."

"There are many mysterious places in this castle. All wizards who have not signed a contract will be suppressed by certain parties. For wizards who have signed a contract, Hogwarts Castle can monitor some things, such as their location—— This magical prop is made out of this, and it can monitor the traces of wizarding activities in the entire Hogwarts Castle."

"James didn't say how he did it, but I guess he found the key items left by the previous headmasters. As headmasters, they are qualified to use these contracts to bypass the anti-' Tracking spell 'magic."

"We infused our thoughts and memories into this magical map that we used to escape the school janitor and travel around at night. On that map, I was called Moonface, Sirius was called Padfoot, and your father —James...his name is Prongs, and Pettigrew's name is Wormtail."

"The origin of these nicknames is related to the transformation of our Animagus. In order to alleviate my wolf poison, James and the others taught themselves Animagus. Sirius is a big black dog, so it is called Padfoot. James is a deer, and Peter Pettigrew is a mouse."

"You have to know, Potter, that everyone's Animagus is related to their character, bloodline, and even fate."

"We didn't pay attention at the time because Pettigrew's character was too weak and timid. He was like a little brother following James."

"The night your father died, I realized there was a traitor between us, who had gone to Voldemort! But I don't believe it was Sirius, listen to me, no one is more loyal than him, so he is A big black dog. And the dead Peter Pettigrew... the Animagus are mouse wizards, although it is not unbelievable, but there is a betrayal hidden in their souls."

"When I saw the picture of the mouse on your friend's shoulder, I was more sure of my judgment. Pettigrew is not dead, and has been staying by your side recently."

"I can't tell you what the truth is, it's up to you to investigate and judge by yourself."

"The Marauder's map left by James can help you. As long as Pettigrew is still hiding in Hogwarts, he will not escape the monitoring of the map. But you have to pay attention, when Pettigrew appears on the map, he will Shown as Wormtail, the map cannot be deciphered with normal revealing spells,

You need to raise your wand, point at the map and say: I solemnly swear that I have done no wrong. "

"After using it, say; 'The prank is done' and that's it."

"James was caught by Filch once when he was about to graduate, and the Marauder's Map was confiscated. It should be in his office now."

Harry gradually approached the door of Filch's office. In his spiritual vision, he saw fluctuations like black water waves behind the people in the office. A suction force came from behind the door. Harry was a little surprised, because this was his first time. A discovery of what can affect the spiritual world from the physical world!

He listened through the office and heard Filch's voice from inside saying: "Master, Harry Potter didn't say anything to Dumbledore. The reactions of the professors are normal, and the news from the Ministry of Magic is also true. Really... there really was a terrible dark wizard who destroyed the entire Ministry of Magic and left the Aurors like bereaved dogs."

"Well done, Filch!" Harry could clearly hear Malfoy's voice.

Under the vision of the spirit world, Malfoy is like a distorted light and shadow. In the center is a thick shadow like a black dragon, wrapped in a glass-like transparent light in the middle. Harry wants to see this distorted light and shadow clearly. He borrowed " The power of the Golden Scripture of the Sun, the essence of Malfoy is like a glimpse, it is a withering young dragon, holding a black-leather magic book in his hand.

"Who?" Malfoy suddenly became alert, and he looked around suspiciously.

Filch replied cautiously: "No one, Master, under your spell, no one can sneak in, not even Harry who is wearing the Invisibility Cloak."

"I can't stay here for too long." Malfoy was suspicious and didn't want to say anything more: "Proceed with caution, Filch!" After speaking, he turned into a plume of black smoke and left.

"It's really "The Black Book of the Dead." Harry had already seen it.

He looked at the place where Malfoy disappeared for a while, and it wasn't until Filch sneaked out that Harry came back to his senses. If it was before, he would definitely catch up to see what Malfoy was up to, but now Harry, who was tortured by hatred, only wanted revenge, especially because Pettigrew might not only be the traitor who betrayed his parents, but also might be hiding Voldemort's soul.

Harry couldn't tell, which one did he hate more? But with this opportunity to kill these two most important enemies at once, he never wanted to let it go.

"The Marauder's Map is flying!" Harry cast the Flying Curse, but nothing happened.

Harry was not angry, he had long suspected that the map might not be in Filch's hands anymore, if there was anyone in Hogwarts who knew the things in Filch's office the best, the naughty things, and the troubles together , night walkers, that must be the Weasley twins, the whereabouts of the Marauder's Map, the Weasley brothers are most likely to know - but Harry's time is running out.
