Chapter 369: Which is worse, food or test subjects?
Dumbledore listened quietly.
He didn't know for a moment whether to praise Sirius for his wit or to call him stupid... Ahem!
You found out it was Snape, which was really good.
But... you should also know that you and Snape have a personal grudge, right?
Then why do you think he released you?
But Dumbledore also admired Sirius's tenacity!
In order to punish himself for the mistakes he had made, he would rather stay in Azkaban to atone for his sins.He obviously had the chance to escape, but he was still unwilling to leave.
This is very Gryffindor!
"We'll talk about this later!"
Dumbledore said slowly: "Snape's matter still needs evidence, and I will pay attention to his every move. And the most important thing for us now is to prove your innocence...Sirius!"
Although all the current evidence points to Sirius being wrongly accused, Dumbledore must remain cautious until he sees Peter Pettigrew in person.
And it's not appropriate to tell others about Snape.
At least not now!
Dumbledore continued: "Tell me your story, Sirius."
"call--"
Sirius calmed down and recalled the events of that year in a somewhat complicated tone.
In the beginning, Sirius was indeed the secret keeper of the spell.
But he believed that he was too high-profile and was a target for Death Eaters.He felt that he should change to a safer secret keeper, and then let him stand on the bright side to attract the attention of the Death Eaters.
At that time, a traitor appeared in the Order of the Phoenix.
Sirius was afraid to trust Remus Lupin because of his werewolf status.
So Sirius proposed that Peter Pettigrew be the secret keeper of the Fidelity Charm.
Then... tragedy happened.
After learning the truth, Sirius went alone to hunt down Peter Pettigrew.In a desperate situation, Pettigrew used a magic move to blow up the entire street, leaving only a severed finger.
Sirius thought that Peter Pettigrew was dead. In order to punish himself, he allowed the Ministry of Magic to imprison him in Azkaban without any excuse.
In fact, the Ministry of Magic didn't give him a chance to explain.
When the Aurors arrived at the scene, apart from a bombed-out street and dead Muggles, Sirius was the only one standing there laughing maniacally - the Aurors also found Pettigrew's body there. Broken finger.
Plus Sirius had no excuse.
So Sirius was imprisoned in Azkaban without trial.
after that……
Fudge came to Azkaban for inspection. Sirius asked him for a newspaper and saw the news that Arthur Weasley won the Gold Galleons in the newspaper. He also saw Peter Pettigrew in the report. News - that damn rat!
After Sirius escaped, he first went to the Burrow to take a look. When he learned that the Weasley family had not returned yet, he wanted to go to No. [-] Privet Drive to see his godson.
Unexpectedly, Andy was already there to guard him.
"How long did you stay at Privet Drive before Collins showed up?" Dumbledore suddenly asked.
Sirius was stunned for a moment, "About four or five days!"
Dumbledore nodded, "Four or five days... I understand, just keep talking!"
Sirius was a little confused, but continued: "I didn't want to hurt that child, but he kept chasing me. I couldn't help it, the situation was critical at the time, and I thought if I could hurt his leg, he wouldn't be able to continue chasing me. "
"But at this moment, a patron saint..."
"Patron Saint!!"
Sirius' eyes widened suddenly, what's going on?He was attacked by a patronus?
Sirius did read a lot of newspapers after leaving Azkaban.But the news about the Patronus Curse was last year, and Sirius hadn't seen it yet.
“That’s Collins’ unique magic.”
Dumbledore explained, and then continued to ask: "You were brought here after you were knocked down by the Patronus? What did you two talk about?"
<divclass="contentadv">Sirius glanced at Dumbledore suspiciously.
Why did he feel that Dumbledore cared more about Andy than him?
Is it an illusion?
"I was hit by a coma spell and I woke up here."
Sirius continued: "That boy's name is Andy Collins, right? I swear, he is the most astute little wizard I have ever seen, even more than many Aurors, maybe even Mad-Eye can't compare to him!"
"He knew he was guarding me at No. [-] Privet Drive!"
"Although he thinks I am a Death Eater, he is keenly aware of some doubts."
"He asked me why I didn't escape Azkaban earlier, and asked me why I didn't hurt Harry since I had gone to No. [-] Privet Drive a long time ago?"
"Because of these doubts, he did not hand me over to the Ministry of Magic immediately. After listening to my explanation, he called you. Oh, by the way, that boy was very vigilant. When he contacted you, he also added I cast a stun spell."
Dumbledore nodded slightly when he heard this.
In fact, Sirius's feelings were not wrong.
In this matter, Dumbledore was indeed more concerned about Andy's behavior.
Because Sirius's matter was easy to solve, once the Weasleys came back from their trip, they could easily catch the mouse and prove Sirius' innocence.
But Andy was different.
If he doesn't handle it well, he may become the third generation Dark Lord in the wizarding world.
But if guided well, Andy may also become the guardian of the magical world.
After entering this cave, Dumbledore was keenly aware that this place was definitely not used to imprison Sirius.
In other words, it was not just to imprison Sirius.
Thinking of the magic Andy was studying during this period, Dumbledore immediately realized that this place was prepared for magic transformation experiments.
And Sirius is the experimental subject!
But Andy discovered some doubts. He felt that Sirius might have been wronged, so he gave him a chance to defend himself.
But if there were no such doubts...
Maybe Sirius would regret escaping from Azkaban.
Dumbledore's mood was a little complicated.
He was pleased that Andy still had a conscience in his heart, but at the same time he was a little troubled by Andy's fanatical attitude towards magic.
Andy is crazy.
In order to study magic, he has even prepared for human experiments.However, Andy was eyeing those evil Death Eaters.
This is nothing like a normal 13 year old.
"Any more?"
Dumbledore asked: "What did you talk about next?"
Sirius: Right, right?You really care more about Andy, don't you?
"I asked about the secret of my dementors."
Sirius said a little helplessly: "It should be said... he is indeed a Ravenclaw. In such an environment, he still wants to study. He also wanted to read the Black family's collection of books, and I agreed to him. We later met again Let’s talk about our views on magic.”
"Oh, by the way! We also made an appointment for a duel, five hundred duels!"
At the end of the sentence, Sirius' tone was a bit excited.
Dumbledore: "..."
Dumbledore listened quietly.
