Chapter 288 The truth is revealed

Luke reached out and pointed out that the cage with the Scabers disappeared, leaving only a somewhat old and fat mouse.

"You wouldn't call it Pettigrew." Fudge laughed awkwardly. He was a little worried that it would be a farce.

"Minister Fudge, you seem to have overlooked a kind of magic."

"You mean Animagus?" Snape said it before Professor McGonagall.

As soon as Snape spoke, he, Professor McGonagall, and Lupin took out wand and looked at the mouse alertly. Especially Lupin knew about Pettigrew's Animagus, but he always thought Pettigrew was dead, so he didn't doubt it.

Ron and Mr. and Mrs. Weasley even showed a look of shock. The Scabbbers have been in their house for a long time.

"Yes, Sirius escaped from prison not to hurt Harry, but to protect him. Because he saw a photo of the Weasley family in Egypt in the newspaper and recognized that the mouse in the photo was Pettigrew Peter. And Ron is in the same grade as Harry, in the student yard, and the same dormitory. This makes Black very worried that Pettigrew will hurt Harry, so he escaped from prison."

Fudge showed a trace when he heard Luke's words. With a nervous look, the newspaper Sirius read was given by him. He didn't know how Luke knew it.

"Sorry to interrupt, Mr. Kirk, do you know how Sirius escaped from prison?" Bones needs Azkaban for any loopholes.

"Dementor approaches people by perceiving people's feelings. If it becomes something else, dementor may not work. As for whether there are other ways, I don’t know."

"Minister, I think it is necessary to check Azkaban." Bones understood Luke's meaning, and there was a suspected illegal Animagus in front of him.

"The inspection will be discussed later, let's solve the Sirius problem first." Fudge said.

At this time, many people still have doubts in their hearts. If what Luke said is true, then Ministry of Magic regarded sinners as heroes and sent the innocents to Azkaban.

"It was Pettigrew Peter who betrayed Harry's parents back then, and he is the Secret Keeper. Pettigrew, if you tell the truth, you may be alive to stand trial, otherwise, today may be your last day."

Luke flew out a magic from his fingertips and hit the mouse on the ground. This magic formidable power was not powerful, but it also let Pettigrew know that he had no retreat. About Luke, he had heard too much too much.

"There are so many people here, if you don’t show up yourself, don’t blame us for doing it." He looked at Snape’s expression a little bit of anger, for one of the murderers who killed Lily, Snape It has been very restrained that he has not shot yet.

I saw that the fat mouse on the ground began to grow bigger, the head and limbs changed. In a moment, the original Scabbers became a large humanoid mouse, cowering, wringing hands. .

He did not return to adulthood, but was like an enlarged mouse with some more human characteristics.

Everyone looked at the scene in shock.

"Are you...Peter?" Lupin asked uncertainly.

"Lai...Remus..." Pettigrew Peter's voice was high-pitched, and his eyes glanced all around again, "My friend...my old friend..."

"Peter, how did you become like this?" Lupin looked at Pettigrew who had not become human.

"Me?" Pettigrew noticed that his hands were not human arms, but mouse limbs.

"I...I, what happened, why did it become like this." Pettigrew watched the changes in his body in horror.

"It may be that you have been a mouse for too long and can’t change back. This is not the point. Now you need to explain what happened twelve years ago. If you don’t want to tell the truth, I believe Professor Snape , I would love to give you a try on his Veritaserum."

Snape quickly figured out. Since Luke has known that Pettigrew Peter is a mouse, he is probably the ghost of the situation now.

"What can I do? Dark Lord...you don't know...he has weapons you can't imagine...I'm scared, I've never been as brave as you, Remus, and James. I am Never thought of this... It was the man who couldn't even mention the name who forced me..." Pettigrew couldn't check his own situation and became a little hysterical.

"You don't have to pretend to be pitiful. If you hadn't taken refuge in Voldemort a long time ago, you would believe you betrayed Harry's parents with his character? It is estimated that only a Killing Curse is waiting for you." Luke hit Broke off Pettigrew's explanation.

"He...he is gaining power everywhere!" Pettigrew cried, "What are the benefits of ... defying him?"

"So you admit that you have taken refuge in him, betrayed and Killed Harry's parents, right." Luke asked.

"Why are you betraying my parents!" Harry yelled. He wanted to go forward to question Pettigrew, but was stopped by Professor McGonagall.

"You don't know!" Pettigrew wailed, "He will kill me!"

"Now that the truth is revealed, we should let this die for twelve years If people really die, he can't be locked into Azkaban even if he knows Animagus." Snape stepped up and raised wand.

"No...don't..." Pettigrew yelled in horror, and hurriedly turned and crawled towards Ron.

"Ron...I'm not your good friend...Are you a good pet? You won't let them kill me, Ron, right...You'll be on my side, won't you?"

Ron, who had already lifted his body, hid behind his parents, looking scared.

Pettigrew knelt there, shivering uncontrollably, and slowly turned his head to Harry.

"Harry...Harry...you look exactly like your father...exactly...James won't want me to be killed...James will understand, Harry...he will show me Mercy..."

Snape and Lupin may be worried that Pettigrew will violently hurt Harry, and they stepped forward and grabbed Pettigrew by the shoulder and threw him to the ground. Pettigrew was lying there, convulsing in fear.

"Professor Dumbledore, Minister Fudge, I think things are clear. Pettigrew is the Secret Keeper of Harry's parents, but he betrayed them and gave the news to Voldemort."

"Mr. Kirk...you know who..." Fudge seemed a little afraid of Voldemort.

"Sirius was not present, but it does not prevent the murderer from confessing his guilt, what do you think, Ms. Bones?" Luke looked towards Bones beside Fudge.

"Although Pettigrew Peter has already pleaded guilty, we still need Sirius to come out and confront him. Of course, we will also return his innocence." Bones said.

"In this case, the outer dementor should be removed." Sirius and Pettigrew matter is not important, for Luke, the outer dementor is the key.

"We came suddenly today, and we have to go back to the Ministry of Magic to make arrangements. We will send someone to withdraw them tomorrow." Fudge thought about it and agreed.

Although Fudge doesn't want to admit this fact, Luke is fortunately half of his own person. This matter was resolved internally by the Ministry of Magic. What's more, it was not his responsibility to catch the wrong person. He hadn't taken office at that time.
