Chapter 521 Skinny Dog and Fat Rat
Sirius had been in a very bad situation recently. He had been in Azkaban for so many years, and a large part of the reason was that it was his own choice. But that doesn't mean that escaping from Azkaban is an easy thing.
Ten years in Azkaban made him very thin, so his Animagus turned into a skinny black dog. With some effort, he could still get out of the cracks in the prison.
Although his abdomen was severely scratched on both sides.
Because of the Dementors, the Ministry of Magic employees on duty were not very attentive, and they could not find out that a prisoner was missing in a short time. And the Dementors, without vision, could not sense themselves as dogs.
Sirius found a place with weak surveillance and jumped down. He swam a long distance with the body of a dog before getting ashore. There were several times when he almost died in the sea due to exhaustion. Fortunately, he relied on the hatred in his chest to survive.
After getting ashore, he did not dare to turn into a human body for fear of being discovered. So he could only beg for food from passers-by like a stray dog. If he couldn't get any, he would have to look through the trash can.
It's not that he hadn't thought about ambushing a wizard and snatching his wand. But the risk of doing so was too great, and he was not sure he could rob a wizard in such a bad state.
Failure is not terrible, but the terrible thing is that if he fails, he will be sent back to Azkaban for strict supervision and will never have a chance to come out again.
Hagrid is a big mouth, so when Sirius lent Hagrid his flying motorcycle ten years ago, the night when the Potters were killed, he knew the address of Harry's aunt's house. He walked for a long time before he finally reached Privet Drive.
When he came to Harry's aunt's house at night, he found that Harry was not there. He hid in the bushes under the windowsill and eavesdropped on the complaints of Harry's uncle and aunt.
From the conversation between the two, Sirius knew that a little witch with a long knife broke into their home today and took Harry away. When Sirius was feeling nervous, he heard them say that in addition to the little girl, there was a pair of red-haired twins today.
Red hair, twins. Sirius immediately thought of Molly Weasley. At that time, she had just given birth to her youngest son and had not rested for a few days before she got up and said she wanted to continue fighting.
Sirius remembered very clearly that it was Molly's twin sons who had just learned to walk and lay down beside the crib, looking at their newborn brother.
Most of the red-haired people in the wizard family are from the Weasley family, but they are too prosperous. Just saying Weasley, you don't know which family they are from.
But the red-haired twins are probably only Arthur and Molly.
So Sirius wandered all the way and went to the village of Ottery-St. Catchpole in Devonshire. The Weasleys' burrow was built outside the village.
After arriving near the burrow, Sirius did not directly change back to human form and go to the door. Because he was carrying the crime of betraying the Potters after all. If he showed up directly, the Weasleys would probably attack him before he could explain.
After all, the Weasleys were both old members of the Order of the Phoenix, and their fighting power was much stronger than that of ordinary Aurors.
So he had to slowly plan, and after catching Wormtail with full confidence, he would take Wormtail to wash away his grievances. This was the correct way to take revenge.
The first task now was to sneak into Hogwarts, find the pure-blooded kid who had stolen Harry's corner, and grab Wormtail from him.
Even an Animagus couldn't sneak onto the Hogwarts Express, so Sirius could only rely on four legs to set off for Hogwarts.
Scabbers was bought by Pojun according to Li Zhuoguang's request. After she handed Scabbers to Li Zhuoguang, she didn't care about it. She really didn't like mice, let alone raising one.
As for Scabbers, Li Zhuoguang put him in a cage and ordered Huang Shiren to feed him regularly. That's right, Li Zhuoguang had no interest in raising rats, so this important task fell on Huang Shiren's shoulders.
Because pets were not allowed to be brought to class, Huang Shiren usually either went to the Forbidden Forest to play crazy or stayed in Li Zhuoguang's dormitory. Of course, he preferred to stay in Li Zhuoguang's dormitory and slept all day and night.
That day, Huang Shiren slept until the afternoon before waking up leisurely. He took out his space backpack, took out a piece of dried meat and started to chew it. After chewing it, he walked towards the bag of rat food.
The master specifically instructed that this rat was something he was going to trade, and he should treat it as a prisoner, and there was no need to treat it too well. So even though Li Zhuoguang didn't need the wild beast dried meat, the dried meat in Huang Shiren's backpack was almost piled up into a mountain, but he still didn't feed Wormtail a single bit.
When Li Zhuoguang first gave Wormtail to Huang Shiren to take care of, Wormtail was desperate, after all, he knew very well that weasels eat rats.
He thought Li Zhuoguang bought him just to feed him as a pet, and he was ready to fight to the death. But unexpectedly, the weasel was unexpectedly obedient.
It had never hurt him, and it fed him rat food on time every day, but...
Seeing that the fat rat had finished eating the rat food, Huang Shiren opened the rat cage, took out the worm tail, and started his daily routine. Huang Shiren had nothing fun in the dormitory. There were many fun things in the forbidden forest, but it was dirty and messy. He had to take a shower every time he came back from the forbidden forest.
So Wormtail became his toy. He directed Wormtail to do rolling, handstand, and obstacle running games. Wormtail also cooperated, making Huang Shiren cry with joy.
Wormtail didn't dare not cooperate. If he didn't cooperate, the rat food for the next day would be halved. Although it was rat food, this family was indeed rich, and the rat food they bought was the best. It was really delicious.
If it were usual, Wormtail would have planned to live in this family for retirement. But through the Daily Prophet, he knew that Sirius had escaped from prison. He had a hunch that Sirius, who had been in Azkaban for more than ten years, suddenly escaped from prison. Maybe it was for him.
So he planned to escape. As long as he ran out of the country and ran into the Muggle society, Sirius would not find him easily. Azkaban had an escapee, which was a slap in the face of the Ministry of Magic, and the Ministry of Magic would never give up.
As long as they caught Sirius again or forced Sirius out of the country, he could come back to enjoy his life. Today was the day that Wormtail had planned.
Because there were classes all afternoon, no one would come to the dormitory for a while. As long as it got dark, he would leave.
Wait! I'm leaving today, why should I make this weasel happy today? !
Wormtail was immediately furious, and his evil heart was filled with anger. After many years, he regained his human form and looked at Huang Shiren fiercely.
He had been coveting Huang Shiren's space backpack for a long time. It seemed that there were a lot of food in it, which could be used as his rations on the road of escape, so that he would not live too badly.
"Little thing, you are very happy to watch me perform juggling every day, right?" Wormtail approached Huang Shiren step by step.
Huang Shiren also saw the malice that this rat demon who could transform had towards him, and his cheeks suddenly swelled up. I work hard to feed you every day, and now you still want to turn against Tiangang?
So what if you can transform? Different origins, different caves for cultivation, there is a world of difference between these monsters! It's time to let you know how powerful Master Huang is!
Wormtail saw Huang Shiren take something out of the space bag behind him. After a closer look, it seemed to be the brush from the east.
Hey! Why is that brush glowing?
