Chapter 45 During the interrogation

[quick confinement]

After finishing Legilimency, Dumbledore added a spell to Peter Pettigrew.

Professor McGonagall saw the principal's actions and realized that she had just been deceived.

"Professor Dumbledore, is there anything wrong with Mr. Peter Pettigrew?"

Dumbledore sighed, looking older and less energetic than before.

"Minerva, we have all been deceived. This Mr. Peter is the Death Eater." Dumbledore looked at Raven, who was pretending to be an obedient student, with a deep look in his eyes. The surprise on his face had not yet returned. Well, huh, exaggerated.

It seems that this whistleblower is planning to play dead to the end. Forget it, who made Dumbledore the principal?

"Minerva, I remember that you had a good relationship with one of the editors of the Daily Prophet.

I hope you invite him to come to Hogwarts with reporters. We need to reveal this matter as soon as possible. The real heroes are still suffering in Azkaban. I'm going to find Severus. He has brewed something recently. A batch of truth serum. "

Then his eyes turned to Raven.

"As for Mr. Weasley, this matter also involves your family. I wonder if you are willing to accept the next interview?"

Just kidding, why is Raven working so hard to act in so many scenes? Isn't it because he doesn't like to expose himself and likes to be "Voldemort"? He immediately shook his head.

"I just borrowed this Mr. Mouse to take Transfiguration lessons. The people who really get along with this Mr. Peter day and night are my two brothers, Percy and Ron."

Dumbledore no longer pressed, at most he cursed a few times in his mind, 'You cunning brat'.

"Fox, go and invite the two Mr. Weasleys to the principal's office after dinner. The little wizard must eat well to grow up healthily."

There was an eagle cry from the roof, and Fox had been crouching somewhere on the ceiling.

The calls of these phoenixes are really random. Some imitate doves, and some imitate eagles. What exactly does a real phoenix call? "In your heart..."?

Ahem, since the matter has nothing to do with Raven, it is obvious that his thinking is very divergent at this moment.

But he finally showed up in the principal's office, and Percy and Ron had to ask him by name.

None of the portraits of the past principals dozed off today. What is happening in the principal's office now, they can hang on the wall for another two to three hundred years. Apart from sleeping, that's all they have fun with.

Percy and Ron were standing aside cautiously. After all, there were a lot of people in the room at the moment.

Principal Dumbledore and the deans of the four houses were there, and a bald, short, middle-aged man was tied to a chair in the middle of the room.

He may not be particularly old, in his thirties, but it is obvious that he is not living a good life and appears older than his peers.

In such an occasion where something big was about to happen, Percy tried hard to remain dignified and to make Ron dignified.

Ron stretched out his hand in surprise and was about to scream, but Percy quickly covered Ron's mouth with his quick eyes and hands.

Then he looked in the direction of Ron's finger and saw Raven grabbing the tip of the Sorting Hat with his left hand.

Tired, destroy it, can Percy control Ron, can he control Raven?

Even suing the parents was of no use to Raven. Ms. Molly really doted on this child who was forced to leave family life since he was a child.

Although the professors all saw what Raven was doing, they had more important things to do right now.

Besides, the Sorting Hat is pretending to be dead, so they can ignore it for now. If something happens, the Sorting Hat will scream.

So with everyone's indulgence, Raven put his right hand into the hat, clawed, clawed,

He took out one. The hilt and grille were decorated with red gems. The whole body was made of mithril. The hilt was carved with complex patterns. The sword was a one-handed sword with fairy runes engraved on it.

[Clean up and make new],

Putting on his old hat, Raven took out a wand with his left hand and started to dance gracefully.

Godric flow!

The headmaster in the portrait recognized this ancient dueling technique.

But now is not the time to watch this. This little wizard looks like a young Weasley, and he will not graduate immediately.

So, like the professors, they ignored Raven moving his body over there and turned their attention to Peter Pettigrew on the chair again.

Except for Principal Neopher and Principal Phineas Black, they know very well that Raven must be involved in this matter. Isn't he going to cause trouble? impossible.

Raven took off his hat and saluted the two of them, then put the old hat back on the shelf.

Phineas Nigellus Black

He held the Sword of Gryffindor in his hands and played with it while walking towards Ron and Percy.

He couldn't wait to show off his new treasure in front of the two Gryffindors.

What? ownership? As the heir of Gryffindor, isn't it natural to hold the Sword of Gryffindor?

By the time he reached his brothers, everyone else was about to start the most important thing of the day. .

Dumbledore, witnessed by the photographer brought by the Daily Prophet, poured a bottle of potion into Peter Pettigrew's mouth.

The Veritaserum took effect, and Peter Pettigrew suddenly became confused.

The reporter took the question book provided by Dumbledore, but when he saw these questions, his expression looked so unbelievable.

Out of respect for the old wizard, he still read out the contents of the book.

"Peter Pettigrew, what is your relationship with... the mysterious man?" the reporter promptly changed his story.

"That is my master," answered Peter

Several deans and the editor-in-chief who came with them were in an uproar.

Because in their impression, Peter Pettigrew should be a first-class medalist of the Order of Merlin and a hero who died in a duel with the Death Eater Sirius Black.

Unexpectedly, he turned out to be the lackey of the mysterious man!!?

No one would doubt the authenticity of Veritaserum. Snape was a recognized master of potions, and his reputation was very valuable.

The reporter then asked the second question.

"Peter Pettigrew, why did you fight Sirius Black? Isn't he also a Death Eater?"

"Sirius wants to kill me because I betrayed Mr. and Mrs. Potter's address to the owner, and I am the Potters' secret keeper.

If I hadn't betrayed them, the master would never have found them, so Sirius wanted to kill me to avenge the Potters. "

Originally, the reporter wanted to continue asking, but a new episode suddenly broke out.

Headmaster Dumbledore had a quarrel with Severus Snape, Head of Slytherin.

Dumbledore was blocking Snape.

Professor Snape had already drawn his wand, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

If Dumbledore hadn't held down his wand tightly, I'm afraid the Death Eater being interrogated would have died under the curse.

"Severus, calm down, Peter Pettigrew will be brought to justice.

His crime was enough to earn him a Dementor's Kiss, but we can only free the real hero Sirius by sending him to the Wizengamot Trial! "

But Snape's expression was ferocious, "If Sirius was a hero, then... he wouldn't have died at all back then!

He mistakenly believed in this scum and caused such a result. Sirius should atone for his sins in Azkaban!"

It was as if Percy was meeting Professor Snape for the first time. It was the first time he saw such violent fluctuations on the face of the sinister Slytherin Headmaster.

Dumbledore blocked the sound, and after a while of secret conversation, Snape slowly lowered his wand.

The interrogation continues

"Peter Pettigrew, are you related to the Longbottoms, Ferdinand Diggory, Marlene Barnold,...and other members of the Order of the Phoenix in the deaths and injuries of Aurors?"

"Yes, I was the one who compiled their information to the master."

Faced with the crimes of this villain, everyone is no longer surprised;

James Potter was a good friend of Peter Pettigrew and had saved his life several times. Even someone so close to him could betray him. It would be normal for him to betray others.

…………

A series of crimes were proven.

"Peter Pettigrew, tell me why you used an Animagus to transform into the mouse Scabbers and lurked in the Weasley family for eleven years."

After this question, everyone's attention turned to the three Weasley brothers present.

Except for Raven who was there playing with the Great Sword.

Ron and Percy looked at each other, and they finally knew that they would be there in this melon-eating scene, because they are melons!

Scabbers is Peter Pettigrew!

That's the bald middle-aged man there!

He was a Death Eater and an undercover agent of the Order of the Phoenix. He betrayed countless colleagues and killed his closest friends!

This fact made both Ron and Percy want to vomit, it was so disgusting, especially Ron!

Percy didn't like this mouse after all. Even though he had kept it for four years, he would replace it as soon as he had the chance. But Ron was often close to Scabbers!

He really likes this pet that was traded in by his brother!

Raven patted Ron, who was about to cry.

be strong.
