Chapter 203
Harry walked out of the dormitory.
Holding the parchment in his hand, Harry looked at Ron who was still writing furiously. He pondered for a while before walking to his side and said,”Ron, Scabbers has been found. Do you want to go with me to find him?”
Ron’s body suddenly jumped as if struck by lightning. The quill in his hand shook violently and drew a crooked line on the white parchment.
“”Ron?” Harry’s voice reached Ron’s ears, like a thunder that broke the silence at the moment.
Ron stared blankly at the parchment in front of him, his face dull and numb, as if all the life had been taken away.
After a long time, he slowly raised his wand, whispering a spell, cleaning up the crooked line bit by bit.
Then he shook his head and said in a calm tone without a trace of emotion:”No, I’m still not going.”
“I have to rewrite the paper, and I will teach George and Fred a lesson when I finish it.” His voice was full of helplessness and resentment.
Harry’s guess was probably correct, and the strange disappearance of Scabbers also proved this.
He could no longer deceive himself.
Scabbers might really be an Animagus.
So he really didn’t know how to face”Scabbers”.
The pet who stayed in his house for 13 years, accompanied him day and night, and lived and ate with him for two years, turned out to be an old man in his thirties.
Ron clenched his fists tightly. His interests and hobbies were normal!
This was simply his dark history.
Fortunately, not many people knew about it.
No However, Ron’s reputation was completely ruined.
He wanted to be a prefect of Gryffindor.
At first, when Scabbers disappeared, he felt regretful and painful for a while, but now, it was replaced by an indescribable feeling of nausea.
When Ron thought about holding an old man who had not taken a bath for thirteen years and only rolled in the sand crawling all over him, he felt his stomach churning and nausea came over him like a tide.
He slumped down in the chair, staring into the distance with empty eyes, as if he was still immersed in the complex emotions that were too difficult for him to bear.
“Then I’ll go.” Harry stood up and said, his movements were quick and decisive. If he hadn’t asked Ron, he would have been eager to meet his father’s friend!
Hermione, who was listening silently, reached out and grabbed his sleeve tightly, her face full of worry:”Are you going alone? I’ll go with you.”……”
“I’m a little worried about you following him, because he is an adult wizard who can use Animagus after all.” Harry shook his head decisively,”Don’t worry, I won’t act alone, I will call Professor Lupin, he also misses Scabbers”
“But you told me that Professor Lupin……”Hermione’s brows were still furrowed. She still clearly remembered that Harry had mentioned to her that Professor Lupin was a little dangerous, and if she found that he looked strange, she should run away immediately.
She was also amazed at the tolerance of Hogwarts, which made this clever little witch vaguely realize that Professor Lupin might also be a half-blood? A sub-human?
It was a pity that Harry didn’t tell her clearly.
Harry raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said in a low voice:”He is safe now, and he is not in that dangerous moment yet.”
Hermione slowly felt relieved. There was still some worry in her eyes, but she slowly loosened her hand and said softly:”Then you come back early”
“If it’s twelve o’clock……”
Harry’s face was filled with a warm smile, and he continued her words with a smile:”If I haven’t sent you a message through the Patronus by twelve o’clock, you will go to Professor McGonagall, right?”
Hermione nodded gently, and a look of relief appeared on her face.
Harry waved gently at Hermione, then turned and left.
As soon as he stepped out of the threshold of the lounge, he quickly took out the parchment from his pocket, tapped it lightly with his wand, and murmured:”I solemnly swear that I will do no good.”
In an instant, the parchment shone brightly, and the magic map emerged again, with the lines and marks on it clearly visible.
Lupin was in his office, and besides him, there was Snape. (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
Although Harry didn’t know why the two people with such a bad relationship would stay in the same office again.
But now Harry didn’t want to make trouble and waste his time.
He couldn’t wait to see Peter as soon as possible and find out the truth.
Harry waited until Snape left before walking over and knocking on his door.
“Harry, is that you?” Lupin opened the door, sounding a little surprised.[]
“”What, do you think it’s still Professor Snape?” Harry said teasingly.
Lupin welcomed him in and shook his head:”No, he doesn’t want to enter my office that much.”
“”Have you found Peter?” Harry asked straight to the point as soon as he entered the room.
Lupin shook his head helplessly:”No, I haven’t found him yet. I searched all the places we used to go, and asked the elves to search every corner of Hogwarts, but I still can’t find any trace of him…….”At this point, he paused, then shook his head helplessly:”We used to laugh at his Animagus, but now we find that this transformation is indeed somewhat useful. He has the greatest advantage when playing hide-and-seek, but it would be nice if that thing was still there.”

“”Marauder’s Map?” Harry asked suddenly.
Lupin was startled by the words and looked at Harry with doubtful eyes:”You know that?”
Why did he feel that Harry knew mind reading? Oh, that is, Legilimency. He knew Occlumency and must know Legilimency, but he could guarantee that he had never been under this spell.
Harry took out the map from his robe and put it on the table:”I just saw this map too. Did you make it? I found your nicknames on it.”
Lupin nodded:”After James and his friends completed the Animagus spell, they used Transfiguration and the help of a creature, combined with the contract of the castle, to make this map.”…….0 0
“Biology? What is it? Harry was interested.
“”The one who has lived the longest in the Black Lake.” Lupin said simply.
Harry remembered the huge magical aura as big as a mountain that they sensed under the Black Lake when they passed by the Black Lake by boat in the first grade.
It seems that this should be it.
No one has ever seen how big the giant squid in the Black Lake is. They only know that it existed even earlier than the four giants.
There are always mysteries about the existence of a thousand-year-old thing, and Harry is not in the mood to explore this now.
He stretched out his wand and tapped the parchment.
He recited the password very skillfully:”I solemnly swear that I will do no good.”
On the blank parchment, lines and words gradually emerged clearly as if they were cast with magic.
Lupin’s eyes were like lightning, and he quickly scanned it. Not long after, he accurately found Peter’s name:”It’s the secret passage on the sixth floor. He is hiding here. I remember I asked the house elf to explore it.”
There was no emotion on Harry’s face. He just raised the corners of his mouth coldly and let out a sarcastic chuckle:”He is not a dead thing without hands and feet. You are familiar with the terrain and secret passages of Hogwarts, and so is he!”
“Moreover, he actually dared to stay in the castle. I was shocked when I saw him. I thought he would have escaped long ago.” Harry continued to speak slowly, with a subtle contempt flashing in his eyes.
Lupin shook his head with a helpless look on his face:”Maybe he thinks that Hogwarts is the safest place in the world.”
