Chapter 175

The two sides have been in a state of panic.

Argus was not worried that Sirius would know what he had done in the Black mansion.

Anyway, Draco was behind it, so even if they wanted to investigate, they would not be able to find anything.

As for implicating Draco, it was even more impossible.

Anyone with a little bit of brains could see that Draco had no ability to release Avada Kedavra in the first year!

What's more, with Lucius in front of him, who would dare to easily wrongly accuse the young master of the Malfoy family?

"I want to see how Dumbledore will explain to Sirius when he turns over."

"While Sirius is not ready, quickly capture Peter Pettigrew and sell him for a good price."

"The collection of books in the Black mansion should have a lot of good things!"

You know, a former headmaster of Hogwarts was once a member of the Black family.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Black family is the top family in the wizarding world.

If the two current heirs had not died and the other was imprisoned, they would never have fallen to the point where they are today.

"I wonder if Peter Pettigrew is still with Ron."

"Even if he is, it's probably not easy to do it."

"Ron and Harry are in St. Mungo's Hospital together. There are many people watching. It's too risky to sneak in and take Peter Pettigrew away."

"We need to plan this matter carefully."

"And next school year, Dementors will enter Hogwarts and cause a lot of trouble."

"The Patronus Charm should also be put on the agenda..."

Aggs didn't plan to let the entire Slytherin College learn with him.

This spell itself is not very versatile. In addition to resisting dark creatures, it is to reduce the erosion of dark magic.

But for most wizards, there are very few ways to contact dark magic, let alone in-depth research.

It's really not worth spending a lot of time on this kind of thing.

More importantly, it would be too conspicuous to let the entire Slytherin practice rashly.

Aggs didn't want to be exposed, so it's better to be safe.

...

The next day.

Dumbledore, who had disappeared for nearly half a month, finally reappeared in Hogwarts.

On the way here, he had learned about the recent events in the British wizarding world.

His already wrinkled brows were even more furrowed.

"Albus, how is it? Have you found a way to treat Harry and Ron?"

Professor McGonagall rushed to the principal's office immediately after receiving the news.

He asked anxiously.

Dumbledore nodded: "If nothing unexpected happens, Harry and Ron will recover after a while."

"That's good!" Professor McGonagall breathed a sigh of relief.

But he immediately put on a worried expression again.

"You know about the Ministry of Magic and Azkaban, right?"

Dumbledore rubbed his brows: "I will go to the Ministry of Magic to explain in person."

"We were too hasty to prepare at the time, and it is possible that they caught some handles."

"As for Sirius... I will strengthen the vigilance around Harry."

"Although Sirius Black also made trouble when he was in Hogwarts, he never..." Professor McGonagall's expression became complicated when she mentioned Sirius.

Back then, she was Sirius's professor and a member of the Order of the Phoenix like Sirius.

I never thought that Sirius would defect to Voldemort and betray Lily and James.

I never thought that Sirius would hurt so many innocent Muggles!

"Many things are hard to explain."

Dumbledore sighed, as if he felt sorry for Sirius.

At this time, he didn't know that Sirius was wronged.

To be precise, no one knew except Argus and the two parties involved.

Only Peter Pettigrew's severed finger was found on the street where the Muggles exploded, and no one knew that they had changed the secret keeper.

In addition, the Black family was keen on the pure blood theory, and Sirius did not make any rebuttal after being arrested.

Even Dumbledore could only think that Sirius betrayed the Order of the Phoenix and betrayed James and Lily!

"Have you found a good candidate for the professor of Hogwarts next year?"

"Professor Kettleburn of Magizoology is about to retire, and Professor Slughorn of Defense Against the Dark Arts is also very old and cannot bear long-term teaching."

"Even if Mr. Grindelwald helps!"

"But Mr. Grindelwald is also a student, needs to attend classes and needs to learn, we can't... delay his progress because of the school's mistakes."

When it comes to these things, Dumbledore

I couldn't help but have a headache.

A series of recent events almost crushed him.

His back, which was originally quite straight, had a tendency to bend.

"Let's solve them one by one. Let me finish the Ministry of Magic first, and then cure Harry and Ron."

"I will find the professor's matter before the end of the holiday."

"Minerva, please help me call Severus, I have something to find him."

Professor McGonagall also knew that Hogwarts incidents were frequent, so she didn't urge him too much and turned to find Snape.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Argus helping to deal with potions in Snape's office.

A worried look appeared in his eyes: "Mr. Grindelwald, you are still young, there is no need to be so anxious about some things."

"It's okay, Professor McGonagall, I'm used to it." Argus explained with a smile.

"As long as you plan your time well, there will be no problem."

"Alas!" Faced with Argus's hard work, Professor McGonagall was also helpless.

This student is perfect in every aspect. If you really want to find a flaw, it's probably that he works too hard.

He works so hard that even she is a little shocked.

At the age when a child is most playful, he can resist the temptation of the outside world and always stick to his goals.

She has never seen this in all her years at Hogwarts.

With top talent and extreme diligence, even she couldn't imagine how far Argus would go in the future.

"Professor McGonagall, are you here to see Professor Snape?"

Argus guessed Professor McGonagall's purpose, took the initiative to put down the materials in his hand, and bowed slightly.

Turned to look at Snape.

"Dean, the materials have been processed almost, and Professor Slughorn has club activities in the evening..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Snape waving his hand impatiently, asking Argus to leave quickly.

Argus was not angry either. He gave Professor McGonagall a polite smile and turned to leave the office.

Professor McGonagall spoke only after Argus walked away.

"Severus, I have something to tell you."

"What is it?" Snape was brewing potion without even looking up.

Professor McGonagall had long been accustomed to his behavior and could understand it.

The brewing of potions cannot tolerate any carelessness, especially complex potions. If you are not careful, the potions that take a lot of time and precious materials will be burned.

"I'll tell you after you finish brewing." Professor McGonagall was not in a hurry because she was worried that there would be problems with Snape's brewing.

Snape nodded.

After about twenty minutes, as the potion in the crucible turned light blue, Snape breathed a sigh of relief, poured the potion into a small bottle, and then looked at Professor McGonagall again.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Professor McGonagall couldn't stand the pungent smell of the potion, so she tilted her head slightly and didn't face the crucible directly.

"Albus is back and wants you to go over."

"It seems to be related to Mr. Potter and... Sirius Black!"
