Chapter 175 Dumbledore Returns! Troubles Come One After Another
Argus was not worried that Sirius knew what he had done at Black House.
Anyway, with Draco in his face, they couldn't find anything even if they wanted to.
As for involving Draco, it was even more impossible.
Anyone with any brain would be able to see that Draco has no ability to release Avada Kedavra in his first year!
What's more, with Lucius standing in front of him, who would dare to accuse the young master of the Malfoy family so easily?
"I want to see how Dumbledore will explain to Sirius when he turns over."
"While Sirius is not ready, grab Peter Pettigrew quickly and sell him at a good price."
"There should be a lot of good things in the collection of books in Blake's old house!"
You know, some of the principals of Hogwarts were once members of the Black family.
It is no exaggeration to say that the Black family is the top wealthy family in the magic world.
If it weren't for the death of the two current heirs and the imprisonment of the other, they would never be where they are today.
"I wonder if Peter Pettigrew is still with Ron."
"Even if we are here, it's probably not easy to do anything."
"Ron and Harry are in St. Mungo's Hospital together. There are many people watching. It is too risky to lurk in and take away Peter Pettigrew."
"This matter needs to be carefully planned."
"Next school year, dementors will enter Hogwarts and cause a lot of trouble."
"The Patronus Charm will also be put on the agenda..."
Argus had no intention of having the entire Slytherin house study with him.
This spell itself is not very versatile. In addition to resisting dark creatures, it also reduces the erosion of black magic.
But for most wizards, there are few ways to gain access to the dark arts, let alone study them in depth.
It's really not worth spending a lot of time on something like this.
More importantly, it would be too eye-catching to let the entire Slytherin practice.
Yagus didn't want to be exposed, so it was better to stay safe.
…
The next day.
Dumbledore, who had disappeared for nearly half a month, finally appeared at Hogwarts again.
On the way here, he had learned about recent events in the British wizarding world.
The brows that were already full of wrinkles were squeezed into deep grooves.
"Albus, how are you? Have you found a cure for Harry and Ron?"
After receiving the news, Professor McGonagall immediately rushed to the principal's office.
asked eagerly.
Dumbledore nodded: "If nothing else happens, Harry and Ron will be able to recover after a while."
"That's good!" Professor McGonagall breathed a long sigh of relief.
But he immediately put on a worried expression.
"You know about the Ministry of Magic and Azkaban, right?"
Dumbledore rubbed his eyebrows: "I will go to the Ministry of Magic to explain it myself."
"We were too hastily prepared at that time, and it is possible that they might get some leverage."
"As for Sirius... I will be more vigilant around Harry."
"Sirius Black used to make trouble when he was at Hogwarts, but he never..." When Sirius Black was mentioned, Professor McGonagall's expression became complicated.
Back then, she was Sirius's professor and a member of the Order of the Phoenix like Sirius.
Never would he have imagined that Sirius would defect to Voldemort and betray Lily and James.
I never imagined that Sirius would hurt so many innocent Muggles!
"Many things cannot be explained."
Dumbledore sighed, seeming to feel sorry for Sirius.
At this time, he did not know that Sirius was wrongly accused.
To be precise, no one knew about it except Yagus and the two parties involved.
Only the severed finger of Peter Pettigrew was found on the street where the Muggle bombing occurred, and no one knew that they had changed the Secret Keeper.
In addition, the Black family was already keen on the theory of pure blood, and Sirius had no defense after being arrested.
Even Dumbledore could only think that Sirius had betrayed the Order of the Phoenix, James and Lily!
"As for the professor at Hogwarts next year, have you found a good candidate?"
"Professor Magical Zoology Kettleburn is retiring, and Professor Slughorn of Defense Against the Dark Arts is also very old and cannot bear long-term teaching."
"Even with Mr. Grindelwald's help!"
"But Mr. Grindelwald is also a student. He needs to attend classes and study. We cannot... delay his progress because of the school's mistakes."
Dumbledore couldn't help but feel a headache when he mentioned these things.
A series of recent events almost crushed him.
The originally straight back seemed to be bending.
"Let's solve it one by one. Let me finish the Ministry of Magic first, and then cure Harry and Ron."
"I will find out about the professor before the vacation is over."
"Minerva, please help me call Severus. I have something to see him for."
Professor McGonagall also knew that incidents occurred frequently in Hogwarts, so she turned to look for Snape without too much urging.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Argus helping to deal with potions in Snape's office.
A worried look appeared in his eyes: "Mr. Grindelwald, you are still young. There are some things, so you don't need to be so anxious."
"It's okay, Professor McGonagall, I'm used to it." Yagus explained with a smile.
“As long as you plan your time, there won’t be any problems.”
"Alas!" Professor McGonagall was helpless in the face of Yagus's hard work.
This student is perfect in every aspect. If you really want to find a flaw, it's probably that he works too hard.
He works so hard that even she is a little shocked.
At the age when a child is most playful, he can resist the temptation of the outside world and always stick to his goals.
She has been in Hogwarts for so many years, but she has never seen it.
With top talent and extreme diligence, even she can't imagine how far Argus will go in the future.
"Professor McGonagall, are you here to see Professor Snape?"
Argus guessed Professor McGonagall's purpose, took the initiative to put down the materials in his hand, and bowed slightly.
Turned to look at Snape.
"Dean, the materials have been processed almost, and Professor Slughorn has club activities in the evening..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Snape waving his hand impatiently, asking Argus to leave quickly.
Argus was not angry either. He gave Professor McGonagall a polite smile and turned to leave the office.
Professor McGonagall spoke only after Argus walked away.
"Severus, I have something to tell you."
"What is it?" Snape was brewing potion without raising his head.
Professor McGonagall had long been accustomed to his behavior and could understand it.
The brewing of potions cannot tolerate any carelessness, especially complex potions. If you are not careful, the potions that take a lot of time and precious materials will be burned.
"I'll tell you after you finish brewing." Professor McGonagall was not in a hurry because she was worried that there would be problems with Snape's brewing.
Snape nodded.
About twenty minutes later, as the potion in the crucible turned light blue, Snape breathed a sigh of relief, poured the potion into a small bottle, and then looked at Professor McGonagall again.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Professor McGonagall couldn't stand the pungent smell of the potion, so she tilted her head slightly and didn't face the crucible directly.
"Albus is back and wants you to go over."
"It seems to be related to Mr. Potter and... Sirius Black!"
