Hogwarts: I graduated before the system came

"Severus, I will explain this to you later."

Basically, those who can sit in this office are the top people in the magic world, and I began to have vague guesses in my mind.

But no one took action at this time, and the people from the Ministry of Magic were not sure that they could catch Black among the professors.

The only person at Hogwarts who had a conflict with Black was also under control, so even if someone guessed it, no one would reveal the truth immediately.

Douglas naturally saw what everyone was thinking, but until Peter Perum officially revealed the truth, he decided to let Sirius hide.

Although it seems like an attempt to cover up one's mistakes, if Black were to regain his human form at this time, the Ministry of Magic would have to catch Black first according to the procedure. It would be better for everyone to pretend to be confused like they are doing now.

Soon, in silent agreement, everyone in the headmaster's office agreed that only Severus Snape would be hurt.

Chapter 246 The Weasleys’ Food is Really Good

Defense Against the Dark Arts Office.

After listening to George and Fred's explanation, everyone looked at Scabbers in the cage in surprise.

And a few people looked at Ron with strange eyes. Ron felt everyone's gaze and said quickly:

"I've only had Scabbers for two years. Before that he was Percy's pet, and he had him for five."

Everyone looked at Percy Weasley, the Head Boy of the Student Council, who had been sitting in the back of the classroom since he entered.

Percy glared at his brother. He had only just learned from Douglas yesterday that Scabbers was a man transformed.

He felt nauseous for a long time at that time and swore that he would never let his girlfriend know about this. He never thought that he would be stabbed in the back by his own brother at the beginning of the day.

And he also knew that at this time there must be a group of professors and people from the Ministry of Magic watching here.

"Ahem, are you ready? I happen to know how to open this cage."

Harry nodded and said:

"Of course, thank you for your help, Senior Percy."

The crowd immediately made way, Percy straightened his clothes, drew his wand and strode towards the cage.

George and Fred grumbled under their breath when they saw Percy like this.

Percy picked up the cage and shuddered when he saw Scabbers inside.

Douglas told him yesterday that Banban had gotten rid of the hypnosis of the drugs, and the reason why he was not awake now was purely because of the nightmare spell he set in this cage.

If it were just an ordinary creature, it would not be affected much by the Nightmare Curse unless it was sleeping. However, although an Animagus has an animal body, it is still a human in essence, so it will be suppressed by the Nightmare Curse.

He turned the cage door to the ground and softly chanted the spell Douglas had taught him.

A flash of white light passed, and Banban appeared on the ground, but he didn't seem to have woken up from his sleep. If it weren't for the occasional movement of his mouth and the squeaking sounds he made, as if he were having a nightmare, everyone would have thought he was dead.

"Next, shall I do it or..."

Fred drew his wand and interrupted him immediately:

"Of course I'll do the rough work..."

George also drew his wand and continued:

"No, it's us. I won't forget my brothers when something good happens."

Percy took a step back with the cage in one hand and his wand in the other, signaling that they could begin.

At this time, Harry and his companions also drew their wands and were ready for battle.

The other students around only knew that the mouse might be Peter, who had been dead for more than ten years, but they were not aware of Harry's suspicions. Seeing them suddenly on high alert, although they felt strange, they also drew their wands.

The two wands shot out a blue light, and in an instant, under the stimulation of the spell, Banban finally woke up. He discovered his abnormality, and his gray body twisted wildly, followed by another dazzling flash.

In the eyes of everyone, Banban was like a fast-growing tree, with a head coming out, followed by limbs.

A very short man, not much taller than most of the young wizards present, appeared where Banban had been standing.

However, although the other person was very dirty, he had thick hair and a fat body, which made it impossible to imagine that he was a person who had been hiding for more than ten years.

Everyone present cried out in surprise, and many young wizards subconsciously took a few steps back.

.......

Not only in the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, but also in the principal's office on the eighth floor, there was a cry of surprise.

Despite Douglas and Lupin's repeated assurances, everyone was still very surprised to see an illegal Animagus with their own eyes.

Lupin's face was unusually calm, and he tried to hold down Sirius's dog head with his hands.

Snape, who was controlled, looked at Peter in the mirror with confusion.

Dumbledore looked at Peter in the mirror, a strange look flashed in his eyes, but he said with emotion:

"The food at the Weasleys' is really good. I don't remember him being this fat before."

As he spoke, he looked at Douglas.

Some people present looked at Dumbledore, thinking that the old man's focus was really strange.

......

Peter, who had just been awakened from a nightmare, breathed rapidly, twitched his pointed nose, and quickly turned his green eyes with a bit of mouse characteristics. He glanced at everyone and found that most of the people present had their wands pointed at him. He couldn't help but feel a little panicked, as if he had missed something during the days he was asleep.

Harry, who was facing him, noticed that his eyes were always glancing towards the classroom door, and quickly pointed his wand at his heart and said loudly:

"Mr. Perrum, stand still!"

When Peter heard Harry calling him, he forced a smile on his greasy face. He was about to take a step forward when he suddenly saw Harry's wand pointed at him. A trace of fear flashed across his face.

He was too familiar with this scene. He had been having nightmares recently. In his dreams, he had no idea how many times James had put his wand against his chest and asked him why he had betrayed him. Harry and James were so similar that he felt dazed.

"Hi, Harry, I'm Peter, Peter Perrum. You look exactly like your father, you really do. James and I are very good friends..."

Hermione saw Harry's arm slowly falling down, and quickly pulled him and whispered:

“Ask for the key points!”

Harry quickly raised his arms, took a deep breath and said:

"Yes, you two are very good friends, so he gave you the Secret-Keeper of the Fidelius Charm."

Percy was surprised by Harry's question. He thought the other party would use a question, but he used a statement directly.

The effect was obvious. After hearing what Harry said, Peter was stunned and felt panicked.

He has been sleeping all the time these days. How much content has he missed? Why does he know everything about the other party's loyalty curse?

His eyes moved rapidly, and he noticed that as he remained silent, the little wizard's face also showed a look of confusion and panic, so he hurriedly said excitedly:

"Harry... I don't know what you're talking about. As everyone knows, the Secret-Keeper is Sirius Black.

He was Voldemort's most capable henchman, a spy who betrayed Lily and James and revealed their whereabouts to Voldemort... Yes, that's it... That psychopath..."

Ron said with disgust in his eyes:

"If Blake is a spy, then why did you fake your death and live in my house as a rat for twelve years after he was caught? I actually let you sleep in my bed... and his bed..."

Ron finally pointed at Percy and dragged him into this, saying that he couldn't bear such a disgusting thing alone.

Percy's mouth twitched. Thank you, my brother.

Peter forced a smile on his face, not seeming to care at all that the other party was pointing his wand at him, and said in a disgusting tone:

"My two kind children, my kind masters... I have watched you grow up. I am your little mouse, and I am a good pet...

Percy, I was still very sad when you abandoned me. I am a good master who saw your unknown efforts.

Ron, I have been with you for so many nights, with so many secret thoughts..."

He was interrupted by George and Fred, their wands pointed at his head and heart respectively.

"You'd better answer his question as to why you've been hiding in my house for twelve years."

"If Mom knew, she would definitely slice you into pieces..."

For the first time, Ron felt like his two twin brothers were acting like older brothers, and he looked at them with gratitude.

Chapter 247 Lupin is a werewolf

Peter still tried to force a smile on his face, spread his hands as if giving a speech, and walked towards Harry while saying:

"I'm sorry. Although I don't want to admit it, it's because I'm afraid. After all, I sent their most capable general to Azkaban. Voldemort's subordinates must be looking for me everywhere..."

Percy saw his intention and said loudly:

"You'd better stand still and don't move!"

Hermione's palm holding the wand began to sweat slightly. She imitated Professor McGonagall and asked sharply:

"Peter Pellum, this reason doesn't convince us. Since Black was sent to Azkaban by you, why are you afraid of others? Isn't he your most capable subordinate?

Moreover, you were awarded the Order of Merlin, First Class by the Ministry of Magic. Why did you leave behind a finger and fake your death before escaping? Don't you trust the Ministry of Magic?"

Percy coughed lightly and said righteously:

"Even if you felt that the Ministry of Magic was incapable of protecting you right after the war, the Ministry of Magic later flourished under the leadership of Minister Fudge, and we also have a very powerful Director Scrimgeour, the Head of the Auror Office. I don't believe you don't know."

[Some people in the principal's office showed satisfied expressions on their faces.]

When Peter heard the two of them singing the same tune, an expression of disdain for the Ministry of Magic appeared on his face.

Harry asked again:

"From what I know, my father and Black are closer than he is to you, otherwise he wouldn't be my godfather. Why would Black betray my father? Is it just because he's a werewolf?"

Peter rubbed his head. How could he not know that Black was a werewolf? However, in order to gain Harry's trust, he said seriously:

"Sirius comes from the famous Black family in the wizarding world. All the people from that family are born dark wizards. His younger brother was a follower of Voldemort.

I don't know where you heard that Black was a werewolf, but at least he certainly wasn't at that time.

There is another werewolf around your father. His name is Remus Lupin. I haven't heard from him in these years. Could it be that he captured Black and turned him into a werewolf? I believe he can prove it for me... What happened?"

He suddenly noticed that the students around him were exclaiming and talking, including Harry, who looked at each other.

"Professor Lupin is a werewolf?"

"I noticed that Professor Lupin disappeared for a week during the first full moon, but the second full moon happened to be Halloween, but he only disappeared for one night, and when he appeared the next day, he didn't have any werewolf characteristics."

"Shouldn't he be telling lies at this time?"

......

Principal's office.

When Peter said that Lupin was a werewolf, the Aurors drew their wands again and pointed them at Lupin.

Fudge said angrily:

"Albus, I need an explanation. Not only is Hogwarts hiding an illegal Animagus, but there's also a werewolf who became a professor. Do you know what you're doing? If the parents of those students knew about this..."

Although Snape couldn't speak, the crazy smile on his face could hardly be suppressed.

Lupin had a wry smile on his face, and at the same time, he had his hands firmly holding down Black's dog's head.

Douglas walked over to Lupin and patted him on the shoulder. He had discussed this matter with Lupin from the beginning. Peter was likely to reveal his werewolf identity, but Lupin didn't care. The main reason he agreed to come to Hogwarts with Dumbledore was because he wanted to protect Harry under Sirius.

As a result, Sirius had been with Harry from the beginning, and Peter had always been plotted against, so he had long planned to leave and continue his wandering life.

Dumbledore placed his hands on the table and said softly:

"Remus, you're our best professor for morning exercises, study hall, and detention classes, and you're incredibly popular with the students. With the help of the new wolfsbane potion, you've never had to take a day off, except for the first full moon... Wait, Remus, it seems like you don't have any time to rest. I guess I need to give you a raise."

Lupin said gratefully:

"I'm very satisfied with my current job. You know, no one wants to hire a werewolf..."

Other professors also came forward to testify that Lupin had never hurt anyone since his school days.

......

Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom.

Peter suddenly felt confused. He looked around and said excitedly:

"So this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is Remus? Great, call him over quickly, he can testify for me, he is a good man... Remus, Remus, my old friend."

However, he was still very panicked at this time. In his dreams, Lupin killed him more than once after knowing his identity as a traitor. There was even one time when the angry Lupin turned into a werewolf and tore him into pieces.
