Professor Rupert Hogwarts

Chapter 166 Debunking the Identity
"Okay, Eisen, do you have anything else to do?" Dumbledore suddenly spoke, "I know you will come to me, but you won't come here specifically to see how disappointed this old man is!"

Eisen glanced at the newspaper, then took out the flat mirror and put it on his desk: "Of course not, I'm just asking you about it by the way!
Thank you for your gift. My alchemy level has improved rapidly recently, so I only made one new alchemy item based on the characteristics of the looking glass.However, after the props were refined, I suddenly discovered this——"

The contents of the plane mirror were revealed in front of Dumbledore. Eisen noticed that Dumbledore's expression immediately became serious the moment he saw several names.

"Sirius Black, and Peter Pettigrew!" Dumbledore held the plane mirror in his hand and felt what it was, "This is impossible - Peter Pettigrew is already dead!"

Aisen spread his hands and did not express his opinion.

"Detection Charm, Tracking Charm, Revealing Charm—" Dumbledore rubbed the plane mirror, and the expression on his face became more solemn.

Eisen stepped forward and took a look at the plane mirror, "Looking from above, Sirius Black is hiding in the Shrieking Shack, and Peter Pettigrew is hiding in the Gryffindor common room. Go and see if it's true or not!"

"This is amazing." Dumbledore took a deep breath, glanced at Eisen and continued, "But you are right, you must go and see it!"

Then, Dumbledore disappeared from the office in a flash.

Is this using phantom intangibility?Eisen was startled, and his vision quickly changed to see Dumbledore in the Gryffindor common room.

Dumbledore was seen holding a plane mirror and looking at the trio, with a look of confusion on his face.In a flash, Eisen appeared directly next to Dumbledore.

"Professor Dumbledore, Professor Eisen, do you have any arrangements?" Seeing Dumbledore and Eisen coming together, Percy, the president of the Boys' Student Union, took the initiative to come forward.

"Percy, arrange for other students to go to their dormitories to rest!" Dumbledore glanced at the plane mirror and gave instructions directly to Percy.

"Yes, Professor Dumbledore!" Seeing Dumbledore's arrangement, Percy didn't continue to ask questions and turned around to arrange for other students.

"What is Professor Dumbledore doing here?"

"Did something happen?"

“I wonder—could it be what the newspaper said?”

"The person behind Sirius Black's escape from prison? That's horrific—"

"Stop thinking about it and go back to sleep!"

The little wizards whispered, and when they returned to their dormitories, they looked back, as if they wanted to know what happened.

"Hermione, Harry, and Ron, come here -" Seeing that the trio were also about to leave, Eisen waved directly to the three of them.

The three people came over with confused expressions upon seeing this.

Perhaps they heard the voices of some young wizards. When the trio came over, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva, as if they were worried about something.

"Ron, put down your schoolbag!" Eisen glanced at the plane mirror in Dumbledore's hand and noticed that Peter Pettigrew's name moved as Ron moved, so he signaled directly to Ron.

Hearing Eisen's words, Dumbledore narrowed his eyes, seeming to think of something, and stared at Ron's schoolbag.

"Ah - this -" Ron opened his mouth, but seeing that Professor Eisen and Professor Dumbledore were so solemn, he didn't say anything, put down his schoolbag and walked over.

"Professor Eisen, has something happened?" Coming to Eisen's side, Hermione saw Dumbledore still staring at Ron's schoolbag, and couldn't help but pull Eisen's sleeve and asked in a low voice.

"Stop talking, look at-" He reached out and tapped Hermione on the head, and Eisen focused on Dumbledore.

Harry and Ron, who were one step behind, also saw Dumbledore's strange attitude and became curious.

squeak-

A mouse emerged from Ron's schoolbag and ran towards Ron's direction.

"Scabbers--" Ron had a smile on his face, shouted happily and stretched out his hands.

Dumbledore's eyes scanned the plane mirror, and when he saw Peter Pettigrew's name quickly approaching Ron, his eyes suddenly flashed, as if he understood something.

Dumbledore didn't even take out his wand, but with one finger, the rat Scabbers, who was running towards Ron quickly, was directly covered by a glass cover that appeared out of thin air.

squeak-

Perhaps because of the magic, the mouse Banban couldn't break the glass cover at all. Banban, who was trapped in the cover and couldn't escape, screamed anxiously.

"Professor Dumbledore, that's my pet Scabbers -" Ron saw his pet hit the glass cover and explained to Dumbledore anxiously, with an anxious look on his face.

"That's not your pet Scabbers—" Dumbledore looked solemn. After glancing at Ron, his eyes returned to the hood.

"Does this have anything to do with Ron's pet?" Seeing Dumbledore's solemn expression, Hermione was surprised.

"But it's just a mouse!" Harry couldn't help but said.

"No, that's not a mouse, that's a wizard." Eisen said calmly, glancing at the trio.

"Yes, Animagus, his name is Peter Pettigrew." Dumbledore had already confirmed his thoughts when he saw that the mouse was missing a toe.

"But isn't Peter Pettigrew dead?" Harry was immediately confused. Looking at Professor Dumbledore and Professor Eisen with serious expressions, he couldn't help but continue, "He was killed 12 years ago. Sirius Black killed.”

"It's not Peter Pettigrew, it's Scabbers--" Ron's face was very ugly, but he still couldn't help but emphasize.

"Oh, yes, Ron has always kept it as a pet." Eisen nodded slightly, then looked at Ron, "So, Ron, do you remember how long Scabbers has lived in your house?"

"You said on the train that Scabbers was Percy's pet before, and then he gave it to you!" Harry seemed to have thought of something and looked at Ron and opened his mouth.

"What's the problem?" Ron's face suddenly turned pale.

"The lifespan of rats is usually only one to two years, but the vast majority of rats do not live beyond one year. Your pet Banban must have lived in your home for more than ten years." Aisen explained aloud.

"This shows that it is not an ordinary mouse." Hermione showed an expression of disbelief.

"Weren't there witnesses who saw Peter Pettigrew die?" Harry said, "A street of witnesses."

"Yes, I also testified to the Ministry of Magic at the time." Dumbledore said slowly, "But obviously, we were all deceived by Peter Pettigrew, and we only saw what we thought we saw."

"But if Peter Pettigrew was an Animagus, wouldn't everyone know it?" Hermione suddenly thought of a question, "I mean, we all learned it in Professor McGonagall's class, and the Ministry of Magic would Oversight of wizards and witches who can transform into animals.

There are records to find out what animals they turned into. I checked Professor McGonagall's records. There are only seven Animagus in this century, and there is no name of Peter Pettigrew on it. "

"You're right, Hermione!" Dumbledore gave Hermione a look of affirmation, and then gave an explanation, "But apparently Peter Pettigrew is an unregistered Animagus!"

squeak-

The mouse Scabbers struggled desperately in the glass cover, but there was no way for it to escape from Dumbledore's methods.

But at this moment, when the trio looked at the mouse Banban, they all showed strange expressions.Harry and Hermione were doing better, but Ron turned pale at the thought of sleeping with Scabbers for so many years.

"Professor Eisen, I think you can take them to the auditorium, and I will notify the faculty to gather there." After thinking for a while, Dumbledore gestured to Eisen, and then disappeared in a flash.

Nodding, Eisen stretched out his hand, and a metal cage wrapped the entire glass cover, and then floated up.Immediately afterwards, he greeted the trio and left the Gryffindor common room together.
