Chapter 276 The Truth (Modified)

"His Black family has all kinds of dark magic that we have never dreamed of!"

Pettigrew shrieked, "How else could he have escaped? I guess He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named taught him a few tricks!"

Although Peter Pettigrew screamed heartbreakingly, and his words seemed reasonable, Lloyd thought of the scene in Fudge's office before departure.

He was reporting to Fudge on the recent developments in the Auror office, when Owen Harris and Albert hurriedly knocked on the door and came in.

What he said, "Minister, good news, Sirius Black is hiding out at Hogwarts. But please allow the Aurors to be sent out, not the Dementors. According to reliable sources, Peter Pettigrew is still alive. Apparently." , there is something fishy in this, Mr. Crouch may have made a big mistake back then."

Lloyd will never forget the meaningful look in Owen Harris's eyes, and the look on his minister's face when he was stunned at first and then nodded firmly in agreement.

Based on his years of experience in catching dark wizards, there are too many loopholes in Peter Pettigrew.

In his opinion, since Peter is still alive, the truth of the matter is definitely not the one that everyone initially believed - Sirius Black betrayed the Potters, blew up a street, and killed Peter.

From the perspective of political correctness, his boss Fudge is obviously happy to go with the flow.

At this moment, Blake laughed, a terrible, joyless laughter that filled the space.

Eren had lifted the petrification on him.

The two Aurors beside him pointed their wands at him dutifully, and did not relax at all because of the appearance of Peter Pettigrew.

"Voldemort? How many tricks did you teach me?"

Pettigrew flinched, as if Black had whipped him.

"What? Are you scared to hear your old master's name?" Black said. "It's understandable, Peter. Those people under his command are not very happy with you, are they?"

"I don't know - what are you talking about, Sirius -" Pettigrew muttered, his breathing coming faster and his face now covered in sweat.

"You have not been hiding from me these twelve years," Black said, "but you have been hiding from Voldemort's old subordinates. I heard something in Azkaban."

Blake's eyes were burning with rage and he literally said every word through gritted teeth.

"Peter... they all thought you were dead, otherwise they would have asked you to confess... I heard them shouting all kinds of things in their dreams, as if they thought the liar had betrayed them. Voldemort went to Poland based on your information. Special family…”

Snape on the side was breathing rapidly, and his cold eyes were fixed on Peter.

Blake's attention was entirely on Peter, and his tone was both threatening and mocking.

"Voldemort was defeated there. Not all of Voldemort's men entered Azkaban, did they? There are quite a few of them out there, biding their time, pretending to have reformed... If they find out you're alive, Peter - "

"I don't know...what are you talking about..." Pettigrew said again, his voice even sharper. He wiped his face with his sleeve and looked up at Lloyd. "You don't believe this—this nonsense, Lloyd—"

And Lloyd looked away from him and looked at Albert.

On this trip, Albert is the leader.

"I must admit, Peter, I can't understand why an innocent man would be willing to be a mouse for twelve years." Albert said impartially.

"Innocent is innocent, but scared!" Pettigrew screamed, "If Voldemort's minions are looking for me, it's because I sent their best man to Azkaban - the spy, Sirius Blake!”

Blake's face twisted.

"How dare you!" he growled, sounding a lot like the bear-like dog he had transformed into.

"Me, Voldemort's spy? When have I ever curry favor with someone stronger and more powerful than me? And you - I don't understand why I didn't see that you were a spy from the beginning. You have always liked powerful friends so that you can get them. Their care, right? It used to be us... Remus and I... and James..."

Pettigrew wiped his face again, almost out of breath.

"I, spy... you must be crazy... there is nothing... I don't know how you can say such-"

"Lily and James asked you to be the secret keeper after listening to my suggestion." Blake said through gritted teeth, his tone so fierce.

"I thought it was a good plan...a package swap...Voldemort would definitely come to me, but I didn't expect that they would use a weak and incompetent thing like you...You told Voldemort that you could dedicate the Potters to him, That must have been the happiest moment of your despicable life.”

Blake beat his chest bitterly, feeling like a knife was piercing his heart.

Professor Snape on the ground made a rumbling sound in his throat. His face was blue and he looked at Peter Pettigrew angrily.

It is often your enemies who know themselves best, and this holds true between Snape and Sirius Black.

Professor Snape hated Sirius, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net hated their nasty pranks, hated his arrogance and absurdity, and hated him even more for betraying Lily.

But at the same time, he also knew that Sirius was arrogant and he didn't bother to lie.

At first, Sirius did not defend himself, let alone cry out for injustice, but accepted the punishment of being imprisoned in Azkaban. This led Snape to identify him as the culprit.

Judging from the conversation just now, Professor Snape understood that there was someone else he wanted to take revenge on.

Pettigrew mumbled incoherently, and Alan heard words like "ridiculous" and "crazy."

But from his dusty face, it was not difficult to see how panicked and scared he was at the moment.

"There is a way that can let us know the truth quickly." Allen suggested.

Albert turned his gaze to his dear brother, his expression soft.

"I have already obtained Sirius Black's memory. As long as I obtain Peter Pettigrew's memory, the two will be compared, and the truth will naturally be revealed." Allen said.

"He may not cooperate, and it will be very difficult to retrieve the memory.

Albert did not deny that this was a good idea, but I am afraid that none of the Aurors standing here could successfully extract the memory of an adult wizard completely and truly while the other party was on guard.

Although Lloyd has seniority, in terms of strength, he may not be as good as himself.

"I can do it, and I won't take sides. Even if it doesn't work, I can configure the Veritaserum."

A hoarse and cold voice came, like a snake spitting out a dangerous message.
