Chapter 253
“Ron, have you heard of the time turner?”
At night, in the dormitory.
Harry couldn’t sleep in bed, so he asked Ron in the bed next to him.
Ron couldn’t sleep at this time, and heard this familiar name.
He sat up from the bed with a grunt.
“Of course! The time turner is a controlled item in the magic world!”
“In the past, because someone abused the time turner, a big incident occurred!”
“And it’s dangerous to use this thing. If there is a slight mistake, it is possible to disappear in time.”
“Oh…” Harry was a little disappointed when he heard the news.
But it was only a little, he thought about it before asking.
The time turner must not be something that ordinary people can own, otherwise, how could he have never heard of it.
Ron didn’t notice Harry’s emotions.
He finally found a topic that he was familiar with, and immediately started to show off.
“You don’t know, Bill and Percy have used this thing!”
“Both have used it!” Harry’s tone was full of surprise.
“Of course! You don’t know, but Hogwarts has this thing.”
“Percy didn’t want to tell me at first, but he was afraid that I would disturb him… afraid that I would see that something was wrong with him, so he just told me the truth.”
“If third-year students at Hogwarts choose twelve courses at the same time, the professor will give them a time converter.”
“Many of the twelve courses have conflicting class times, so the time converter is used to ensure that students can attend classes at the same time.”
“Bill used to do this, and so did Percy!”
“Will they not have any… bad effects?” Harry asked tentatively.
Ron didn’t notice the change in Harry’s tone at all, and still said carelessly.
“No! Hogwarts will have such students every few years.”
“Don’t you find that the time and place where Percy appears are wrong?”
“What bad effects?”
“That’s right!” Harry thought about it carefully and found that Percy did often appear in some unexpected places.
It’s just that he didn’t care about it usually.
Now think about it carefully, it doesn’t seem to have brought any changes.
“Is there anyone in our class who uses a time-turner?”
Ron’s expression changed immediately after hearing this.
“Of course there is!”
“Hermione Granger, the know-it-all from Ravenclaw who points fingers at others all day long!”
“And that evil Slytherin!”
“Hmph!”
Ron seemed to want to say something, but because Ron was too excited and his voice was too loud.
Several roommates were woken up.
“Can you keep your voice down? Is there anything you can’t say tomorrow morning?”
“Yeah, why are you arguing so late at night!”
The two knew they were in the wrong and didn’t dare to say anything.
Ron fell asleep unconsciously, and he kept mumbling before going to bed.
Harry didn’t know what he was thinking.
He had a sleepless night.
The next morning, he came to the castle hall with dark circles under his eyes.
…
“Give it back to you!”
In the office, Snape threw the Marauder’s Map to Argus.
Snape’s gloomy expression showed that he definitely didn’t catch Peter.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have come back so early.
It seemed that Peter was really good at escaping, and he couldn’t even find Snape who was holding the Marauder’s Map.
If Alan hadn’t suddenly taken action, he might not have been able to catch him.
Argus picked up the Marauder’s Map.
“It seems that you have found some answers, Professor.”
“Is Peter Pettigrew difficult to deal with?”
Snape didn’t speak.
In his world, not speaking meant tacit agreement.
He had looked for Peter Pettigrew these days and found his traces.
But mice are too small compared to black dogs or other animals.
After all these years of hiding, Peter was able to blend in perfectly. If he took action without ensuring that he could be caught once, it would be very easy to alert the enemy.
If he didn’t catch him, it would be difficult to catch Peter again.
For the sake of safety, he didn’t dare to take action.
He just confirmed that Peter was not dead and returned to Hogwarts.
“In that case, let’s follow the plan we made to capture Peter Pettigrew.”
“During the implementation of the plan, I will send saints to strengthen the vigilance around Hogwarts and Hogsmeade.”
“Even if we fail, we will not let Peter escape.”
Argus had expected this.
When Snape got the Marauder’s Map, Argus passed the message to Peter.
Let Peter strengthen his vigilance and must not be caught by Snape.
If he was caught as planned, Argus could rescue Peter.
But he fell into Snape’s hands!
Just based on Snape’s hatred for him, Peter could be happy.’s death is a good thing.
“Mr. Grindelwald, when did you learn the arrogance of our savior?”
“Are you so sure that he will follow your plan?”
Snape was very unhappy with his failure, and even more unhappy with Argus’s expected expression.
“Believe me, Professor Snape.”
“Peter has been in the Weasley family for more than ten years. It is impossible for him to give up such a good hiding place easily.”
“In Hogwarts, there are professors and Aurors to protect him. Sirius dare not come in.”
“It may not be the same in other places!”
“Don’t worry, it won’t be long before he will return to Ron.”
“Mr. Grindelwald, I have something to remind you.” Snape said coldly.
“I don’t care what that stupid dog with a head comparable to a troll promised you!”
“But I have to cooperate with you. The only way is to capture Peter Pettigrew. As for the rest…”
“I understand, professor.”
Argus knew what Snape meant.
He cares about catching Peter, and dealing with Sirius!
Snape will help catch Peter, but it has nothing to do with him dealing with Sirius.
Be careful not to interfere!
“All I need is for Sirius to fulfill his promise to me. Other things… have nothing to do with me.”
After getting a satisfactory answer, Snape’s expression finally softened.
If it were in the past, Snape would not care.
But after the last office battle, Snape already understood.
Although Argus is only in the third grade, his magic strength can catch up with most professors.
Even for him, it would take a lot of effort to deal with Argus.
If Argus really wants to protect Sirius, he will also be in trouble.
“Besides you, does anyone else know about this?”
“Hermione guessed Professor Lupin’s identity.”
“Miss Know-It-All? Ha! It seems that there are still smart people in Hogwarts.”
Snape sneered and poured out the potion in the crucible.
He casually threw a bottle to Argus.
Before Argus could ask, he answered: “Felixir!”
“Has our Mr. Grindelwald never seen it?”
“Take it, I don’t want any accidents to happen during the arrest!”
