Harry Potter and the Old Ones

Chapter 176 Black Mystery Case

"What are your next plans?"

After returning to the Ministry of Magic, Dumbledore asked directly in the elevator with only two people.

Because this trip to Azkaban by "Ghidroy Lockhart" would not work without Cornelius Fudge's approval, so in order to reflect the superficial affection, Dumbledore and "Ghidroy Lockhart" He politely took the elevator all the way, took Cornelius Fudge from the ninth floor to the minister's office on the first basement, and then asked to see Tierra, and then he and "Ghidro Lockhart" caught a An empty elevator, ready to go to the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.

As soon as he entered the elevator, Dumbledore's smile disappeared immediately, and he asked indifferently.

"It suddenly occurred to me that Sirius Black has a younger brother, Regulus Black, who seems to be a Death Eater too." Tierra has long been used to Dumbledore's indifferent attitude in front of "Gildero Lockhart" "So my future plan is to start with the Black family. After all, the Black family is full of loyalty in Voldemort's eyes. If possible... I hope Mr. Principal can apply to the Ministry of Magic. I want to go to the old house of the Black family— —”

"Second floor, Department of Magical Law Enforcement, here we are."

The cold girl said.

Dumbledore and Gilderoy Lockhart walked out of the lift.

"With all due respect, Mr. Lockhart." Dumbledore said as he walked, "Are you looking for something from the Black family?"

"No, I didn't..." Tierra denied.

"It doesn't matter." Dumbledore said, stroking his beard, "Just in time, I have another task that I hope you will pay attention to."

"What mission?"

"About Sirius Black." Dumbledore said as he walked, "Sirius Black is the only Gryffindor student who has been born in the Black family for hundreds of years. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a traitor to the Black family. He Like most of the family members, her parents follow the family tradition, are extreme pure bloodists, proud of their pure blood, and take "forever pure" as the family motto."

"But Sirius is not." Dumbledore took "Ghidroy Lockhart" and sat on the waiting bench in the public hall of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, and the passing crowd greeted Dumbledore politely.

"Sit down, Mr. Lockhart, let me tell you the story of Sirius." Dumbledore patted the seat beside him and said.

"Ghidroy Lockhart" sat helplessly beside Dumbledore——

"When Sirius Black was at school..." Dumbledore paused suddenly, then turned his head and said, "I remember you and Sirius, James, Lupine, and Peter..."

"Yes, Mr. Principal, I am two years younger than them, so the reputation of their Predator Quadruple can be said to have run through my entire school days."

said Gilderoy Lockhart.

Yes, Gilderoy Lockhart is two years younger than the Predators, so he is familiar with the Predators' deeds at school.

But then with the rise of Voldemort, Gilderoy Lockhart applied for a suspension of school when he was in the fourth grade, and was hid in the Muggle world by his parents until four years later, when Voldemort lost power, Gilderoy Lockhart just returned to Hogwarts to continue school.

At that time, there were many wizards who used this method to avoid Voldemort's so-called "blood cleansing". Gilderoy Lockhart was the real estate purchased in the Muggle world at that time and his identity in the Muggle world.

It's a pity that when Gilderoy Lockhart returned to the magic world, things were already different, and in the magic world, because of the death of the Dark Lord, the madness, the disabled, the closed, the Ministry of Magic and the entire wizard The world is extremely short of people, so people like Gilderoy Lockhart could graduate just by fooling around.

"Oh, yes, yes, I remembered." Dumbledore patted his head and said, "But you took a leave of absence in the fourth grade, I think...you should have hid in the Muggle world at that time, right? ?”

"Yes, Mr. Headmaster."

"Then let me tell you about what happened after you left Hogwarts." Dumbledore stroked his beard and said, "About two months after you took a leave of absence from school, something big or small happened in the wizarding world." News, the eldest son of the ancient Black family, Sirius Black had a theoretical conflict with his pure-blood supremacist parents, broke with the family, and went to the Potter family, James Potter's parents treated him well, just like the Potter family The same as his second son. This practice was unanimously opposed by the Black family, especially his mother, and Sirius Black was removed from the family tree because of this.”

"so……"

"So I think the case of Sirius Black betraying the James Potter couple is still suspicious." Dumbledore said.

"Why? Just the friendship between Sirius and the James family?" Tierra said, "You should know better than everyone else how attractive power and power are."

"But he won't." Dumbledore said firmly.

"During the rise of Voldemort last time, I secretly set up a resistance organization to... use..." Dumbledore continued with a helpless sigh, "to support the Ministry of Magic, which was already riddled with holes. .”

"But not long after the Marauders, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, James Potter, and Pettigrew joined my secret society, my secret society was like a sieve. Similarly, there is always information leaked out.”

"Because Sirius Black came from an ancient dark magic family, and his younger brother Regulus Black and cousin Bellatrix Lastrange were popular people around Voldemort, so I began to suspect him six I broke up with my parents when I was in grades, and going to the Potters’ house temporarily was a conspiracy planted by Voldemort, so I was the first to test him.” Dumbledore stroked his beard and said, “Obviously, he passed me. Since then, he has gained my utmost trust, and I even agreed to him as the Potters' confidentiality."

"But he betrayed in the end, didn't he?" Tierra said.

"I have reservations about this." Dumbledore said, and slowly stood up from the bench, "Let's go, talk while walking, sorry to have delayed you for so long, I think our little Yela must have missed you."

"That's what you need to look out for next," said Dumbledore.

"You want me to clear Sirius Black's name?" Tierra asked.

"No." Dumbledore said, "I think the clues of the Black family are over here, so I hope you can start from other places."

With that said, Dumbledore took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Gilderoy Lockhart.

Tierra looked at the photo——

On it was a pudgy boy with a shy smile.

"Peter Pettigrew." Dumbledore said, "Another victim of the Black incident, the Ministry of Magic said that Sirius leaked the secret, was discovered by Pettigrew, and Pettigrew went to stop it, but Sirius and twelve The Muggles were killed together, for which Peter Pettigrew was awarded the Order of Merlin, First Class, and he himself did not even have a body left, only this was found at the scene—"

With that said, Dumbledore took out another handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Gilderoy Lockhart.

"Gidero Lockhart" carefully opened the handkerchief——

Inside lay a withered little finger quietly.

Tierra: ...

No way, Sir, you keep all of this?

"I hope you can help me pay attention to the truth of the year. I always feel that Peter Pettigrew is not dead." Dumbledore said, "Especially in the past few years, since Harry entered school, my feeling has become stronger and stronger. I'm afraid, if my guess is true, Peter Pettigrew faked his death back then, I'm afraid he has joined Voldemort, and as Harry enters the wizarding world, they may secretly be against Harry."
