Chapter 343 The Best Losing Friend

The Marauder's Map was a map that helped Ada and the twins a lot. With the help of this map, they found the secret passages in the school. With the help of this map, they could wander around the castle unscrupulously late at night.

Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs, four "mentors" from whom Ada and the twins learned a lot. The map they are making now is the Marauder's Map derived from the four of them.

Fred and George have always longed for the four seniors, and today they finally saw them alive. The two brothers opened their eyes wide and opened their mouths. They didn't say a word for a long time. They felt that no matter what they said, it was a little inappropriate.

Seeing the shocked Ada and the twins, Sirius smiled, very happily. Sirius always felt frustrated when facing Ada, but today he was finally proud!

Fortunately, Lupine only wanted to "retaliate" against Ada and vent his anger on his old friend. He did not continue to question whether Ada and the twins were familiar with the Marauder's Map, nor did he have any intention of collecting copyright fees.

Dumbledore took the Marauder's Map from Sirius. The densely packed names of students and professors on it were equivalent to installing surveillance cameras on the school. In this way, as long as Peter doesn't leave the school, it will be a matter of time to find him.

"Professor Lupin, the map is indeed an amazing invention." Fred said, "But we have never seen Peter's name on it."

"Yes, we got this map in the first grade." George continued, "There was no abnormality when Scabbers belonged to Percy, and we also found no abnormalities when Scabbers belonged to Ron."

The Marauder's Map has been in the hands of the twins for a long time, but they have never found a man named Peter Pedillo sleeping next to their brother.

The twins shuddered and got goosebumps at the thought of Percy sleeping with Peter for years, and Ron sleeping with Peter for years.

After hearing this, Dumbledore also turned to look at Lupine and Sirius. If what the twins said was true, this map would not be of much use in finding Peter.

"You can do a lot of things with this map," Lupine explained. "It can also identify invisibility cloaks, polyjuice potions, and of course Animagus."

Blake looked at Ada triumphantly and said, "In fact, the reason why you didn't find anything is of course because we made this map."

"In other words, only the four of you have the highest authority on this map?" Ada asked. This is Ada's suspicion about the map. She always felt that this map was a permission dog.

"Yes, but it's not entirely right." Lupine took over again, "The authority only applies to the four of us. If we need it, the map can hide our identities. That's why you can't see Peter from above. .”

The meaning of Professor Lupine's words was obvious. Peter's Animagus was not exposed on the map. That was because Peter was one of the makers of the map. But in the face of other map makers, the Marauder's Map would not hide it for Peter.

This is not permission, but this is how the four predators were designed from the beginning.

The Marauder's Map is not only magical, it's also high-tech! Ada really wants to ask Professor Lupine, does the technology on the map identify developers based on different magic powers, or does it use fingerprints or iris?

Lupine and Sirius sang in harmony, and the tacit understanding they had not seen for more than ten years had not been lost.

Playmates who have been together since childhood have gone through so many ups and downs, and come back to each other again after going round and round. Time will make them grow up and grow old, but it will not dilute their feelings for each other.

Dumbledore, who was shocked by the Marauder's Map and Black, finally remembered his identity as the principal. He regained the initiative and began to assign work.

Sirius Black's first priority was of course to recuperate from his injuries. He was infected, inflamed, bleeding so much, and had a high fever that led to coma. This was not something that could be cured in a week.

With Sirius' current body, Ada could let him run thirty-nine meters first.

Remus Lupine, as the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, naturally cannot miss classes, but at other times, Professor Lupine has to shoulder the responsibility of searching the castle to prevent Peter from hiding in a corner that is not easy to find.

After all, Animagus are rats, so it is normal for them to get into sewers and water pipes.

Dumbledore also has a mission of his own. In addition to finding Peter, he also needs to collect more evidence. After catching Peter, how to restore Sirius's innocence is equally important. It was not enough to capture Peter.

As for Ada and the twins, they are students. Students, just go study hard and don't worry about whether they have these or not.

The Wizarding Level Examination is just around the corner, and you still have time to worry about Peter Pedro. Do you think Dumbledore can't write letters? Or do you think Mrs. Weasley can't carry the knife anymore?

I knew it! I knew it would be like this!

A little devil with horns jumped up and down in Ada's heart, cursing Dumbledore and Sirius for burning bridges.

Another little angel with a halo above his head persuaded Ada, saying that Dumbledore was doing it for her own good and not to put her in danger, blah blah blah...

Moreover, the Twilight Cottage was commandeered by Dumbledore to allow Sirius to recuperate and hide. Even the house elf Winnie was sent to take care of Sirius.

In this wave, Ada really lost the elves and folded the house. In the end, she was "mercilessly" kicked away by Dumbledore, leaving nothing behind.

Moreover, Dumbledore also sternly warned Ada that Ada and the twins were not allowed to cause trouble, and they were not allowed to tell anyone about it, especially Harry.

The reason why Ida and the twins are not allowed to cause trouble is to prevent them from alerting the snake, so that Peter, who is already weak, can break out of Hogwarts. The reason why Ida and the twins are not allowed to tell others is to prevent Gryffindor from searching the castle. , like it was a few years ago when Welfare was around.

The reason for not telling Harry is even simpler. As an excellent Gryffindor, everyone knows how tough Harry is. It would be better to hide this from him for the time being.

Everything was to prevent leaks, to prevent Peter from escaping, and to prevent Sirius from being discovered by the Ministry of Magic. Everything was treated as if nothing had happened, and the injured Sirius was still hiding in the cave in the Forbidden Forest.

Dumbledore actually wanted to comfort Ada. After all, he also knew that what he did was unreasonable. But after seeing Ada's expression of "I knew so" and "I'm used to it", Dumbledore swallowed back his comforting words.

Practical actions are more effective than empty comfort.

It just so happened that something recently discussed at the Ministry of Magic made Dumbledore hesitate, not knowing whether to agree or not. Now Dumbledore suddenly felt that this proposal was suitable as compensation for Ada.

It can not only win honors, but also improve Ada's status. By the way, it can temper Ada's temperament and tell everyone that Hogwarts is the best magic school in Europe. This wave is definitely profitable!

Thinking of this, Dumbledore suddenly felt a little happy, so that his next words were not lethal at all.

Dumbledore said to Sirius seriously: "Although I believe what you say, I still want to be this evil person. You are not allowed to go anywhere in the next few days, and you cannot leave my sight until we catch Peter." until."

Everyone in the bedroom understood what Dumbledore meant. Before Peter was caught, Sirius was still the biggest suspect in betraying the Potters and was still waiting to be punished.

What if Mr. Fugitive plunges into the Forbidden Forest again? Therefore, it is inevitable to restrict Sirius's personal freedom, and he himself will not feel aggrieved.

After receiving double assurances from Sirius and Lupin, Dumbledore left the Twilight Cottage, taking Ada and the twins with him. For a while, Lupine and Sirius were the only ones left in the hut that had been busy just now.

In the bedroom, Sirius looked at Lupin's gray light brown hair and felt a little sad. He said in a joking tone: "Remus, it has only been a few years. How come you have aged like this?"

"Well, hello, you are as thin as a skeleton." Lupine replied with a smile, "Why is the handsome Sirius who was so popular among thousands of girls disappeared?"
