Chapter 389: Ironclad Evidence (Update 1)

"Restore your original shape!"

Seeing that he couldn't break free, he looked around and saw that only George was chasing him. Pettigrew was so bold that he immediately canceled the Animagus transformation and returned to his human form.

As long as George is killed before Dumbledore and the others arrive, there is still hope for him to escape.

"Avada Kedavra!"

Taking out his wand and pointing it at George, he cast the fatal curse without hesitation.

A green light shot from bottom to top towards George's chin.

He thought that even Dumbledore wouldn't be able to dodge the Death Curse at such a close range.

However, the fact is that George easily dodged the killing curse as soon as he raised his head, and even took one of his feet and swung it in the air, then slapped him to the ground so hard that there were stars in his eyes. I almost fainted.

"If you dare to use the Death Curse on me, I think you don't want to live anymore!"

After stepping on Pettigrew's wand, George kicked it away with such force that he broke at least several of Pettigrew's ribs.

In fact, with his current constitution as a dragon slayer, even if Pettigrew's life-killing curse hits him, it may not be able to kill him, but it is better not to take some risks.

He stepped forward and punched and kicked him again until Pettigrew knelt on the ground, trembling and begging for mercy, before he stopped.

"Tell you, be honest with me later, otherwise I won't guarantee that you will be sent to Azkaban alive."

"I am honest, I am absolutely honest"

Pettigrew felt that George at this moment was scarier than Voldemort before.

Feeling good, George carried Pettigrew, spread his wings, and flew back to the castle.

It didn't take long for him to return to the lawn where the Whomping Willow was.

At this time, on the other side of the lawn, in addition to the original Dumbledore and other school professors, there were also Minister of Magic Fudge and a group of Aurors, among whom he also saw Tonks.

"It's really Peter Pettigrew!"

Everyone looked at the wizard held in George's hand and immediately recognized it was Peter Pettigrew, who had received the Order of Merlin First Class and was posthumously named the Heroic Wizard.

This also means that what Sirius said is very likely to be true.

"Why is he so bruised and swollen?"

But then, they discovered that Peter Pettigrew was indeed Peter Pettigrew, but his face was obviously much fatter than in the photo, and it was not normal fat, but had been made fat.

He was walking with a limp, clutching his stomach, and vomited blood as soon as he opened his mouth.

"When I first found him, he attacked me with the Unforgivable Curse, and I struck a little harder."

George waved his hand and cast a healing spell without a wand, treating Pettigrew's injuries.

"You damn thing, you traitor, I'm going to kill you!"

When Sirius, who had woken up and was tied up, saw Pettigrew, he immediately got up angrily and was about to attack, but was quickly suppressed by the Aurors.

Pettigrew over there was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.

"I think there must be some misunderstanding, Peter Pettigrew. Sirius said that you turned to the mysterious man in the first place and then put the blame on him. Is he lying?"

Fudge, the Minister of Magic, stepped forward and asked Pettigrew.

As the Minister of Magic, he really didn't want what Sirius said to be true, because it meant that the Ministry of Magic made a mistake and imprisoned the real hero in Azkaban for twelve years, leaving the despicable Pettigrew became a hero.

The Ministry of Magic will become the biggest joke in the entire wizarding world in the coming time, and he, the Minister of Magic, is the joke within the joke.

"Yes, he is lying. He is the traitor. It must have been that person who must not even be named who taught him a few tricks so that he could escape from Azkaban. I am innocent."

When Pettigrew heard the tone of the Minister of Magic, he felt that he might have a chance, and he quickly pointed at Sirius and said.

Sirius was so angry that his eyes almost popped out of his head.

"Voldemort? How many tricks did you teach me? Am I a traitor? How dare you!

When have I ever curry favor with someone stronger and more powerful than me?

And you, I really regret why I didn't see that you were a traitor from the beginning.

You always like strong friends so that you can get their care, right? It used to be us. Me and Remus. And James."

"I'm not a traitor, you are."

Pettigrew fearfully retreated towards Fudge, but he kept his mouth shut and was still unwilling to admit it.

"If you are not a traitor, then why did you turn into a mouse and hide for twelve years instead of becoming a hero outright?"

Seeing the stalemate between the two, George immediately raised the key question.

Pettigrew's eyes kept moving:

"That's because I'm afraid. I'm afraid that Voldemort's subordinates are looking for me, but I sent their most capable general to Azkaban."

"A wizard who dared to fight Voldemort and Sirius, and was awarded the Order of Merlin First Class for his courage, would he hide for twelve years after the fall of Voldemort, fearing that his men would find him?"

George couldn't help but laugh.

"Then why did you run away, and why did you use the Death Curse to attack me when I found you?"

"I, I. I was afraid. I ran away because I was afraid of Sirius' revenge. And when you showed up, I thought you were colluding with Sirius."

Pettigrew was already stammering a little because he no longer knew how to fulfill his lies.

The professors and people from the Ministry of Magic in the school were also looking at Pettigrew with strange eyes. They were not fools, and Pettigrew's explanation was too far-fetched.

In comparison, what Sirius said was more reasonable.

"Severus, I remember you should still have the potion for making truth serum, right?"

Dumbledore smiled and looked at Snape, who nodded expressionlessly:

"There are enough to make two sets, just one for each of them. I believe that after drinking it, they will know who is telling the truth and who is lying."

Although Snape hated Sirius very much, he was not stupid. He knew that Pettigrew was lying as soon as he heard it, and naturally he would not help the man who killed Lily.

To be honest, if he hadn't been trying hard to restrain himself, he would have wanted to kill Pettigrew as much as Sirius.

If Pettigrew hadn't revealed Lily's residence, Lily would not have been found and killed by Voldemort.

"Animagus!"

When he heard the truth serum, Pettigrew's pupils shrank, and he immediately turned into a mouse and ran for his life.

He knew that once he drank the truth serum, everything would be exposed.

However, George, who had been prepared for a long time, saw Pettigrew trying to run, and his body flashed to Pettigrew's side and stepped on him.

"Now it seems that what Sirius and Professor Lupin said is true, and this guy is lying!"

The Minister of Magic on the other side saw this and could only nod helplessly. The evidence was irrefutable, and he could not say anything else.
