Chapter 257: Nesting doll-style tracking, Harry finds Sirius!

"Oh my god, Dumbledore is really stupid! He actually wants to expel the professors from Hogwarts!"

"What? Let me see!"

"Look! The Divination Professor at Hogwarts is also a descendant of the prophet Cassandra, the one who predicted that Harry Potter would be the savior! Dumbledore is going to fire her!"

"Look, it also says that the professors at Hogwarts have always been oppressed by Dumbledore, who does whatever he wants with his magic!"

"I didn't expect that Hogwarts would turn into this just a few years after I graduated!"

It has to be said that Rita Skeeter has a knack for talking nonsense.

Under her propaganda, Dumbledore almost became a being that everyone shouted at.

In the past, most British wizards would have just laughed it off.

At most, he just muttered a few words behind his back.

But in the past few years, too many things have happened to Hogwarts and Dumbledore, and there is full evidence for each and every one of them.

Dumbledore's flawless golden body had long been smashed to pieces.

Trelawney bought and watched this issue of the Daily Prophet as soon as it came out.

I thought I could use the interview to improve my reputation and get rid of my reputation as a liar.

Who would have thought Rita would write this!

That is his immediate boss! If you offend him, how will you live in the future?

Trelawney felt like crying.

"Go to Principal Dumbledore! I have to go to Principal Dumbledore quickly and explain!"

She ran all the way to the principal's office. When she reached the door, she remembered that she had never asked for the password to the principal's office.

After wandering at the door for a while, he turned around and chose to ask Professor McGonagall for help.

Under the leadership of Professor McGonagall, they entered the principal's office.

Dumbledore saw the two coming and was a little confused.

If you two didn't go to have breakfast so early in the morning, why did you come to my place?

Because of what was predicted a few days ago?

Isn’t everything solved?

Professor McGonagall sighed and placed the Daily Prophet that Sybil had brought on the table.

"Look at it, Albus."

Sybil hid behind Professor McGonagall with a worried look on her face, like a child who had done something wrong, not even daring to raise her head.

Dumbledore realized something was wrong, especially when he opened the newspaper and saw the reporter's name, he felt dizzy.

Rita Skeeter, her biggest fan.

As long as it's something she reports and is related to her, it's bound to be bad!

Seeing that Dumbledore was silent, Sybil couldn't help but tremble in her heart.

"Deng... Principal Dumbledore, I never said this, she is talking nonsense!"

"When she was interviewing her yesterday, I only talked about the divination class!"

"Don't be nervous, Sybil."

Dumbledore knew what Rita Skeeter was.

No matter how normal Trelawney's words are, he can still make things up for you.

Especially when it comes to yourself!

Therefore, I didn’t think about other aspects at all.

"Albus, there is a lot of news in the British wizarding community right now. I'm worried that some professors will have ideas."

Professor McGonagall said worriedly: "Maybe you should explain it to the Hogwarts staff."

"I'll consider it."

Dumbledore knew that his reputation was no longer as high as it had been in the past.

In the past, he would not have even read this kind of report.

The students and professors at Hogwarts and the wizards in the British wizarding community would only take it as a joke.

But after going through a series of events in the past two years, I still don't have the same reputation as before.

Many people are willing to believe even this nonsense!

All of this started after Harry entered school.

Sometimes Dumbledore also wonders whether he interfered too much in Harry and neglected other aspects.

But now it's too late. Even if Dumbledore senses something is wrong, he can only go to the dark side.

…

Under Dumbledore's explanation and assurance, some of the Hogwarts staff who were originally a little anxious finally calmed down.

Especially Filch, a guard who could be replaced at any time.

Not long after, Hogwarts returned to peace again.

However, after this incident, Dumbledore, the principal's status in the minds of many faculty and staff plummeted.

A few days later, Argus had just walked out of the Slytherin common room and was about to head to the library.

Crunch! Crunch!

There were several strange noises coming from the stairs above.

Following the sound, I saw the stone carvings on the wall falling to the ground.

Just near the carving, an extremely subtle sound of footsteps caught his attention.

"Invisible footsteps?"

"Is it Harry? Why is he wearing the invisibility cloak?"

While Yagus was thinking, the footsteps were getting farther and farther away.

He took out the wand in his hand and pointed it at the ground.

"Apparition comes with you!"

Light blue ripples appeared, pouring out from the wand and lightly touching the ground.

Footprints appeared in front of Yagus.

After casting the Disillusionment Curse on himself, Argus quietly followed Harry.

At this time, Harry had no idea.

He was wearing an invisibility cloak, and his eyes were fixed on Lupine not far ahead.

Today he originally wanted to find some books about time turners, but unfortunately he didn't find any in the library.

In desperation, he had to use the invisibility cloak to go to the forbidden book area.

But just when he set out from the dormitory wearing the invisibility cloak, he found that Lu Ping was carefully leaving through a passage he had never seen before.

He looked very alert, as if he was afraid of being discovered!

Driven by curiosity, Harry chose to follow.

There was another figure who also noticed that Lupin was not right.

He followed Lupin from a distance.

A group of people followed Lupin like nesting dolls.

Following Lupin, he gradually approached the Shrieking Shack.

"Hey, Padfoot, I'm here!"

"I brought you food, so don't go out these days!"

Lupin came to the second floor of the Shrieking Shack panting.

He saw Sirius lying on the ground in his Animagus form and sleeping soundly.

He kicked him up.

"Wake up, don't sleep!"

Sirius, who was forced to open, was still in a daze. He turned back to human form when he saw Lupin's familiar face.

"You're finally here, Moony!"

"I'm starving!"

"It's not easy for me to come out. Hogwarts has been full of troubles these past two years, nothing like our time."

Lupin sat on the floor with Sirius, watching Sirius wolf down the bread.

As if recalling something.

Everything he did was clearly seen by Harry not far away!

Harry couldn't hear what they said, but he could see that the two of them were close.

It's obvious that their relationship is not ordinary!

Thinking of his trust in Lupin in the past, thinking of Lupin's many talks about his relationship with his parents in front of him.

The shame of being deceived, the anger at Lupin's shamelessness, and...the hatred of seeing the face exactly the same as the one on the wanted poster!

Harry rushed in regardless of everything and pushed the door open.

Using his most powerful and most convenient spell now.

"Disarm you!"
