Harry Potter’s Raven’s Claw

As soon as Mike got up, he felt a strong sense of dizziness. At the same time, he felt that his limbs were soaked in ice water at the moment, so cold that he could barely feel it.

Mike knew that he must be looking extremely pale now, so he extended his hand to Snape.

Although Mike is still in a state of locked tongue and throat, he can't speak at all, but the meaning is already obvious.

Snape pouted, and seeing Mike's appearance that he might fall down at any time, he reluctantly took out a bottle of black-purple potion and handed it to Mike.

The taste of this potion is very special. As soon as he entered it, Mike felt a stench explode in his mouth.

If I had to describe it, the smell was similar to the jerky shark meat produced in Iceland. It was the smell of the stinky toilets in the slums, which made people instinctively want to vomit.

Mike strongly suspects that Snape is deliberately taking revenge on him!

But the effect of this potion is really not to be said. When Mike swallowed it with the stench, it quickly turned into a warmth that spread all over the body, making Mike weak due to excessive blood loss. body rejuvenated.

Black and Lupin, who were still hanging in the distance, were relieved to see this. They didn't really care much about their next ending. For them, Mike, the child who was implicated by them, was the most important thing.

Snape came to Black and Lupin's side again after giving Mike a new confinement spell.

And the first thing he did next was wave his wand and use his magic power to rip off their pants!

Black's little trousers looked extremely luxurious. They were made of all silk. Although Snape didn't know the brand printed on it, it should be a luxury just from the appearance and material.

This made Snape very angry, he recalled the identity of Black, the eldest son of the Black family is also the only heir now!

At the same time, he also remembered the all-round bullying that Potter and Black, who were rich second generation, had done to him since he was a teenager!

This upset Snape so much that, with an imperceptible flick of his wand, Blake's little trousers disappeared.

Blake obviously couldn't bear to be so humiliated in front of Mike, this junior, he struggled hard, and angry roars kept coming out of his mouth.

However, this roar sounded like the most moving music in the world to Snape, and he excitedly rubbed his palms and came to Lupin's side.

Lupin was clearly a more frugal man than Blake, as could be seen in his little beige striped trousers with grey patches.

Seeing this, Snape couldn't control himself any longer. He covered his stomach and laughed loudly. After a little slowdown, Snape raised his flushed face and asked:

"How poor are you! Lupin! Even...even this has to be patched...hahaha!"

It's only half way through,

Snape laughed suddenly again.

This time, he laughed even more exaggeratedly, and saw that he lay down on the ground, ignoring the dirt and gravel on the ground, covering his stomach with his hand all the time, while the other hand madly hammered the ground.

In this continuous laughter, Lupin's face was gloomy and seemed to be dripping with water, but since he couldn't help Snape at this moment, he could only lower his head and try not to look at Snape's picture. hateful face.

After an unknown amount of time, Snape seemed to finally remember Mike's existence.

Perhaps in order to restore his majestic impression in front of Mike, Snape stood up quickly, patted off the dirt on his body and wiped away the tears from his laughter, and then put on his usual arrogant and indifferent expression. .

And just at this moment, the Aurors who sensed the battle here arrived.

"Merlin! Professor Snape, you actually caught him! I should give you a Merlin first class!" Fat Fudge squeezed out of the Auror, when he saw that he was hanging When he saw Black, a surprise flashed across his face, "Mr. Black, it's really hard to find you! But it doesn't matter, thanks to my unremitting efforts, we finally meet!"

After he said that, he quickly glanced at Black's vital part, and then teased Snape: "Wow! It's much smaller than I thought!"

This one-liner managed to amuse many of the Aurors present, and just as Fudge was proud of his sense of humor, he suddenly noticed Mike and Lupin beside him.

"Professor Snape, can you explain to me what happened to these two people?"

"I'd love to serve you, Mr. Minister," Snape explained, bowing slightly. "This is Remus Lupin, the new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts. I don't know, he and the murderer Blake were very good friends when they were students, and this time he wants to stop me from arresting Blake, so I think he should be Blake's accomplice!

As for the little wizard here, I don't think I need to introduce it anymore, the famous duel champion (Snape's tone suddenly became frivolous when he said this)! Although he also attacked me with Lupin, I think he must have been bewitched given his age. "

Listening to Snape's explanation, Fudge kept nodding his head.

In his opinion, Snape's explanations are logically clear and well-founded, and almost all of them can be used as testimony in court.

"Very good, then Black and this Mr. Lupin will be handed over to us first, as for the one over there..."

"Wait!"

Fudge, who was suddenly interrupted in the middle of the sentence, looked at the source of the voice indignantly, and saw that Mike had broken free from Snape's shackles at some point, and was walking towards this side at this moment.

Snape frowned as he looked at the wand in Mike's hand. He remembered that the pitch-black wand had already been knocked into the air by him.

But after seeing Shuke behind Mike, he fully understood.

"Mr. Minister, Black is innocent, Peter Pettigrew is still alive!" Mike adjusted his collar and looked at Fudge, "It wasn't Black who betrayed the Potters, it was Peter!"

Mike said this, Fudge and Snape both stared at him in a daze, and after a while, Fudge broke out with an astonishing laugh.

"Hahaha! Mike, Mike, it looks like you've been brainwashed, why are you talking nonsense?"

"Petit Pettigrew he's locked up in Hogwarts by me now."

Fudge's smile stopped abruptly, he stared at Mike's eyes to find some evidence that Mike was lying, and his brain began to quickly think about the pros and cons.

After a long time, Fudge came to Mike and asked with a serious face:

"Mike, can you guarantee that what you say is the truth? If you just lied, I advise you to admit it now, because the consequences of playing tricks on me will be very serious."

"I can swear with my wand."

After getting the affirmative answer, Fudge's face returned to the smile.

"I believe you."

Snape was reluctant as soon as this remark came out. He thought that everything Mike did was delaying time. If he really delayed Dumbledore's return, his plan of revenge and blood and blood and sending Black to hell might be repeated. There will be new changes.

However, Fudge didn't intend to listen to him. He didn't even have the desire to appease Snape's emotions. He directly ordered the Aurors to bring Black and others back to Hogwarts.

Seeing this, Mike whistled at Snape, and then followed Fudge back to Hogwarts in Snape's eyes that wanted to eat people.

He had expected such a reaction from Fudge.

Fudge was not the Minister of Magic when Black was sentenced, and the man who dealt with Black was the head of the Division of Magical Law Enforcement, Barty Crouch.

This Mr. Crouch, who came from Ravenclaw Academy and belongs to the Raven's Nest with Mike, perfectly fits people's inherent impression of Ravenclaw:

Knowledgeable, powerful, slightly eccentric, and capable.

Although Mr. Crouch also has some minor shortcomings, this does not prevent him from working well at the top of the Ministry of Magic.

Even in the original ministerial election, he once became a big favorite.

It's a pity that he has a dreadful son.

His son Barty Crouch Jr. was a huge admirer of Voldemort. After this incident was discovered, not only was he thrown into Azkaban, but Mr. Crouch, his father, was also lost. The right to run for minister.

As for Black, Mr. Crouch can't be blamed entirely.

At the time when Voldemort was losing power, a large number of Death Eaters were arrested, and after they were arrested, these people began to bite each other, hoping that they could be blamed and meritorious in this way.

As a result, the temporary prison of the Ministry of Magic was overcrowded for a while.

The Law Enforcement Department is not staffed enough to conduct a comprehensive review of everyone, so although Mr. Crouch knew that there would definitely be many innocent people, he still chose to cut through the mess, bypassing the A lot of trial procedures have been carried out, and a large number of suspects have been thrown directly into prison.

This is true for ordinary people who are not seriously suspected, not to mention those who seem to have solid evidence like Blake.

Since then, the Ministry of Magic has shown extraordinary efficiency in the matter of Black, and in just a few days, Black has been stuffed into Azkaban.

Although this kind of action was really a helpless move at the time, it is different now. In the peaceful days after Voldemort disappeared, the people became more and more dissatisfied with the Ministry of Magic, the organization that used to protect them. If the slightest mistake is exposed, it will be condemned by huge public opinion.

Fudge knew this very well. The dementors he sent to Hogwarts only sucked a little of the happiness of the students, and they were sprayed into dogs without even hurting a single one.

So he could almost imagine the extent to which Mr. Crouch would be attacked if Black's case was really wrong.

At least in the next round of ministerial elections, he is absolutely out of the game!

Crouch has always been his biggest contender for running for minister, and now if he can take this opportunity to completely remove Crouch's threat, then he will make a lot of money!

Thinking like this, the smile on Fudge's face became even brighter, and the steps under his feet became lighter.

Seeing this, Mike was also very determined, this guy Fudge is not stupid at all, just kidding! How can someone who can be Minister of Magic for so many years be a fool?

The reason why some of Fudge's actions and orders in the original book look so stupid is just that his butt decides his head. Sometimes his behavior is incomprehensible to outsiders, but it is in his best interest.

When the group came back to Hogwarts, everyone in Hogwarts had gathered in the auditorium, but the number of people at Hogwarts was much smaller than usual. It seemed that Fudge It was premeditated, and doing this quasi-joy event over the Christmas holidays would undoubtedly minimise the impact.

Fudge was already in a hurry. He didn't even ask where Black and Lupin were being held, and followed Mike directly to the Response Room.

When Mike opened the door to the Response Room, Fudge and the two elite Aurors who followed him didn't show even a hint of surprise on their faces. Mike wasn't surprised by this.

To be honest, whether it was Fudge or those elite Aurors, they should have been the most influential people at Hogwarts at the time. Such people should still know about places like the Room of Requirement, which are similar to secret treasures.

And when the group filed in and came to the small cell where Peter Pettigrew was imprisoned, Peter was nibbling on a piece of dry bread.

Mike clearly saw that when the uniformed Aurors came to the cell, Peter's gnawing on the bread stagnated for a while, and then returned to normal, and the gnawing speed seemed to be faster. some.

Fudge looked at Mike with puzzled eyes, and when Mike saw that Peter Pettigrew was still going to get away with it even now, he said with a smile:

"This is Peter Pettigrew, an outlaw Animagus."

Fudge nodded when he heard the words, and then an Auror stepped forward and reached out and grabbed Peter out of the cell.

Only then did Peter begin to struggle, only to see him twisting frantically, his big front teeth constantly biting at the Auror's fingers, hoping that he could let go when he was in pain.

It's a pity that these Aurors wear dragonskin gloves on their hands, and the incisors of mice can't bite through the skin of this powerful creature.

The Auror kept moving his hand, quickly took out his wand, and pointed at the mouse he was holding in his other hand.

Powerful magic surged out, and Peter Pettigrew's struggling movements became more and more frantic, but the Auror's hand was like a pair of iron pincers, which firmly fixed its body.

Gradually, Peter's body began to swell, and in just a few seconds, he changed from a small mouse to a squat middle-aged man.

Perhaps it was because of the fact that he remained in the form of a mouse all the year round. Peter was very similar to a mouse in both appearance and behavior.

Appearing in front of people in human form again obviously made Peter extremely uncomfortable. He instinctively shrank his body, and a pair of chubby hands curled around his chest and twisted constantly.

Seeing that everyone present was looking at him vigilantly with their wands raised, his eyes rolled around like a sly mouse, and after a while, he opened his mouth, revealing the pair of big yellow bucks Tooth said kindly to Mike:

"Mike! Good Mike! I'm Scabbers! I'm your friend Ron's pet!"
