Harry Potter’s Raven’s Claw

Mike looked at Peter Pettigrew with a smile on his face with interest, completely ignoring the hand he was reaching out to him.

Before, he always thought that Animagus transformation was simply turning people into some kind of animal, but now it seems that even this kind of mature human transformation will have a certain degree of influence on the spell caster.

Just like Peter Pettigrew and Sirius Black in front of him.

Since Blake has often maintained dog form during this time, even now he still shows some movements exclusive to general animals, such as his tendency to sniff others with his nose.

Peter is even more incredible, he has been in mouse form for more than ten years.

This makes him approach the mouse no matter how he looks or behaves.

'It seems that the risk assessment of Transfiguration has to be raised by another level. ’

Thinking like this, Mike kicked Peter, who wanted to hug his thigh.

"Mr Peter, can you explain why you are still alive?"

Fudge was obviously in a very good mood now. He squatted down with difficulty, checked Peter's hand carefully, and asked kindly after finding that his hand was indeed missing a finger.

Peter also clearly noticed the change in Fudge's mood at the moment, and quickly grabbed Fudge's windbreaker and explained:

"Mr. Minister! It's great to see you again! I heard that you also awarded me the Merlin Medal, is that true? And my mother, is she okay?"

"I regret that your mother died not long after your 'sacrifice'." Fudge broke Peter's hand in disgust, then took out a handkerchief and wiped it, "Please answer my question, Peter. Why are you still alive? Why are you here?"

"I was just scared, scared that You-Know-Who and his minions would go after me! So I hid!" Peter screamed. "Yeah, Blake! That lunatic! Did you catch him?"

"Looks like you're not going to tell me the truth."

Fudge was dissatisfied with Peter's answer, which was simply not the answer he needed.

But he didn't bother to ink with Fudge anymore. There were special interrogation talents in the Auror team, and it was better to leave the search for the truth to professionals.

So he patted his hands after saying this, and then the two Aurors took Peter, who was crying non-stop, to the prison inside Hogwarts.

Yes, there are prisons inside Hogwarts too.

This was originally the place where Hogwarts was originally used to imprison the enemy. After the war in the European wizarding world stopped, it became a place specially used to punish students who made mistakes. It was not completely abandoned until Dumbledore became the headmaster. .

However, it is abandoned and abandoned, and various facilities in the prison, including torture instruments, are very well maintained.

All thanks to Filch, the Squib cleaner at Hogwarts who has been looking forward to reopening the prison,

Used to punish students who have been against him all the time.

Now, Mr. Filch's wish has finally come true. Although it is not the students who have made mistakes who are punished, at least these things that he has carefully maintained have come in handy.

When Mike and Fudge came to the prison, they saw the Aurors interrogating Peter Pettigrew.

Their interrogation method is very simple, that is, waterboarding.

As the name implies, waterboarding is a criminal law that uses water.

Restrain the subject to a sloping table with the subject's head low.

Then he covered his face with a wet towel, and poured water on the towel continuously.

The most painful way to die in the world is drowning, and this kind of criminal law can make the prisoner feel the feeling of drowning indefinitely without taking his life, thus forcing the prisoner to feel the pain of life rather than death. .

This criminal law is very useful, but in fact wizards have better interrogation methods.

Like the Veritaserum and the Crucifixion.

But the former will make the interrogator mentally retarded, and obviously cannot be used on a person like Peter who is not sure whether he is a criminal or not.

The latter is one of the three unforgivable curses, and it is the most notorious one, and of course they cannot use it.

As for Legilimency, unless it is a legendary great wizard who has reached the level of Dumbledore, it can only obtain some memory fragments in interrogation, and it is not very effective.

The icy water was poured on Peter's face at a very slow speed, but it caused him great pain. He screamed in a shrill scream, but because the wet towel was still covering his face, others could only hear some stuffiness. ring.

It was these muffled noises that made Blake, who was being held in the next cell, extremely excited.

He kept slamming against the iron door of the prison, and shouted some strange voices that did not sound like human words.

Perhaps the guard next to him thought he was too noisy, and slapped him in the face with a whip.

A deep bloodstain instantly appeared on Blake's face, and fine blood beads continued to seep out of it, which was very painful at first sight.

But Blake seemed to have no pain at all. He stuck out his tongue and licked the blood that was dripping from the corner of his mouth, and became even more excited.

Fudge was obviously not quite used to this kind of scene, he turned his head in disgust, and at the same time blocked Mike's eyes with his hand, and said:

"Oh, Merlin! Stop it, how could you use such rude means!?"

The guards in the prison pouted when they heard the words. These are basic operations for them, and every prisoner they catch suffers like this.

These Fudge this minister knows it!

However, although they kept complaining in their hearts, they still stopped their movements after seeing Mike whose eyes were covered by Fudge.

"Mike, there is absolutely no need for you to follow me down. You are a good boy, and you are destined to have a bright future in the future. Come on, go find your classmates and play."

Fudge said this to Mike in a soothing tone of a child. He really gave Mike a headache. Wouldn't it be good to just stay there? Why do you have to follow yourself all the way?

However, Mike was obviously not going to give up just like that. He pulled away Fudge's fat hand and asked:

"What are you going to do with Black and Lupin?"

Hearing this, Fudge turned to look at the guards wearing iron masks. Seeing them all shaking their heads, he said to Mike:

"Peter is still reluctant to confess, so I plan to transfer him, Blake and Lupin to the Ministry of Magic as soon as possible for the next interrogation. There are still too few tools here."

When Fudge said that there were too few tools here, Peter, who was lying on the table like a dead dog, suddenly struggled violently again, but then a pair of big hands wearing dragonskin gloves covered his mouth.

Fudge glanced at him before continuing:

"But don't worry, please trust us. With our Ministry of Magic's capabilities, we will soon find out the truth of the matter. If it is really what you said, then we will return Black's innocence."

"If that's the case, then please."

Mike said thanks, said goodbye to Fudge, and left the gloomy prison.

And not long after he left, Peter's screams of pain sounded again in the prison.

When Mike came to the auditorium again, Harry was sitting sullenly in the corner, while Hermione was comforting him.

The curious Mike immediately stepped forward to ask what was going on.

Harry obviously didn't want to talk about it, and Hermione poured it all out.

It turned out that the Christmas present Harry received this morning: the Firebolt was taken away.

"Don't be unhappy, I have already asked Professor McGonagall, that Firebolt was not given by her at all, such an unknown gift must be used by others to harm you! Think about it! When When you go up to the sky with that Firebolt, it suddenly goes out of control, and then you fall down and become mashed..."

In the face of Hermione's persuasion, Harry's lips twitched, and although he didn't speak, his disdain was no longer needed.

Mike knew what Harry was trying to say. He had received an Invisibility Cloak in first grade, one of his father's relics, one of the Three Hallows.

Although it was also a gift of unknown origin, it had never been an accident in Harry's hands for so long.

With Hermione's emotional intelligence, she obviously did not find Harry's dissatisfaction, and she continued:

"You don't have to worry too much, those Aurors just took your Firebolt away for investigation, and they will return it to you after the investigation is completed and it is confirmed that it is all right!"

"Huh! You are so naive, Miss Know-it-all!"

An annoying voice came, and the three turned to see that Malfoy was looking at them arrogantly.

"Firebolt is the highest level of alchemy work today. It's easy to take apart something of this level, but it's hard to put it back on. I'm afraid you can only harvest a bunch of pieces! Scarhead Potter!"

Hermione and Harry glared at Malfoy.

But Malfoy completely ignored their cannibalistic eyes, looked at Mike with malicious intent and said:

"Professor Snape asked you to come to his office, Townley!"

After that, Malfoy laughed twice and led his two valet out of the auditorium.

"Snape's got nothing to do with you!" said Hermione.

"Yeah, that old bat is the worst!" Harry echoed, "By the way, do you know what happened today? Why are there so many Aurors in Hogwarts?"

Mike smiled slyly and said with a victory gesture to Harry and Hermione: "Don't worry, he can't do anything to me. The rest will be explained to you slowly when I get back."

He then left the Great Hall under the worried eyes of Harry and Hermione.

The furnishings in Snape's office were the same as when Mike was there last time, and all kinds of bottles, jars and specimens made it very gloomy.

The only difference from the last time I came was that there was still a furious Snape in the office at the moment.

Mike had just stepped into the office when a slender hand poked in front of him. If he hadn't raised his head in time, he would have been directly stabbed to death by it.

Then came Snape's angry voice.

"give me!"

Mike took a step back, tidied up his collar and said:

"I don't know what you're talking about, Professor Snape."

"You know! You thief! Give me back what you stole from my storeroom!"

Mike pouted, if he returned the Half-Blood Prince's notes directly to you, wouldn't that also admit that I stole from you?

Then you can't punish me for confinement?

Thinking like this, Mike decided to continue playing stupid.

"Professor Snape, you can't slander me, I've never stolen anything." Mike licked his ears, and then made another movement of bouncing earwax.

Snape was furious when he heard the words, grabbed Mike's collar, put it close to Mike's ear, and said in a strong, angry voice:

"Don't pretend to be stupid with me! Since you're going to be invincible, you'll definitely get that thing!"

"Oh, I learned it from a potions textbook I found. Is this book yours?" Mike smiled meaningfully, "but the owner's signature on the textbook It's about the Half-Blood Prince, are you the Half-Blood Prince?"

The expression on Snape's face froze, and taking this opportunity, Mike broke free from Snape's big hand.

"That half-blood prince is simply the most talented wizard I've ever seen! I tried to configure some simple potions according to his notes, and found that his formula is even better than the textbook!" Mike pretended to be. Said, "It's just that he is a little too middle school, and he will call himself the Half-Blood Prince!"

Snape felt a little guilty, and instinctively wanted to echo Mike's words to prove that he was not the half-blood prince.

But he immediately reacted after seeing Mike's teasing expression.

fk! This kid already knew I was the Half-Blood Prince, and now he's just humiliating me!

"Fuchsia!"

Snape shot angrily, but Mike, who had been vigilant for a long time, easily blocked it with his wand.

"Wow! Professor Snape, you actually shot at students for no reason!" Mike said exaggeratedly, "What about the quality and upbringing of your teacher?"

"Don't talk nonsense! I'm going to beat you to death today!"

Snape felt that he was so angry that he was about to explode. At this moment, he had decided that even if all his secondary school past events were exposed, he would ruthlessly teach the hateful boy in front of him an unforgettable lesson for the rest of his life.

And Mike and even Snape had been pushed to the limit by him, so he quickly admitted and said:

"Stop! I'll give it back to you!"

Snape put down his wand, which was half way up.

"It's just that you have to give me your other notes. It's from a lower grade. I can't understand it if it's too advanced."

Snape's wand was raised again.

"Don't! Even if you're not afraid of being known about the Half-Blood Prince, aren't you afraid of being known about the Snotling?"

Snape's hands froze again.

Mike breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said:

"I know everything about your past from Black and Lupin. To be honest, I still appreciate you. The poor boy who was bullied became a world-famous master of potions, while the rich second generation who bullied you Dead dead, waste, waste, what is this? This is a diaosi counterattack!"

"Shut up! What are you trying to say!"

"I want knowledge, as long as you can give me knowledge, I will keep it a secret for you!" Mike said seriously, "Think about it, if Harry finds out about you and his mother, what will he think of you? How would your students laugh at you in private when they found out about your past?"
