Chapter 436 Dumbledore's Surprise

The Dementors drifted away and soon disappeared into the darkness.

Kyle turned around and found that everyone was looking at him with a very strange look.

"What's wrong?"

"Kyle, weren't you scared at all just now?" Harry exclaimed.

Because of the distance problem and the Patronus blocking the way, Harry didn't hear the conversation just now, but he vaguely saw that Kyle seemed to have reached some kind of agreement with the Dementors.

But that was a Dementor. He would feel a piercing cold all over his body just by getting closer. Kyle dared to stand in front of it and stayed there for so long...

"Why should I be afraid? This is Hogwarts." Kyle said.

"Is it okay now?" Hermione couldn't help asking.

"It's okay." Kyle said, "I told those Dementors that Sirius was not here, and they left."

Hermione nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

First there was the werewolf, and then there were hundreds of Dementors. She only felt her legs weak and wanted to go back to the dormitory and have a good sleep.

But no, they have to go to Headmaster Dumbledore first.

Hermione turned to look at the werewolf entangled in the Devil's Net, "How can we take it away? We can't leave it here."

"Don't worry, we don't need to consider this problem." Kyle turned his head and looked in the direction of the castle.

Perhaps the Dementors made too much noise, and a big fiery red bird was flying quickly in the air.

It was Fawkes.

It folded its wings, landed on Kyle's shoulder, tilted its head slightly, as if asking what happened.

"We have something to do with Professor Dumbledore." Kyle pointed to the werewolf wrapped like a dumpling, and whispered, "Can you take it there first?"

Fawkes nodded, flew over and grabbed the werewolf's head with his claws, and flew back to the castle again.

"Oh my god, was that a phoenix just now?"

As soon as Fawkes left, Hermione immediately covered her mouth in surprise and said, "I've seen it in a book, and the phoenix above is exactly the same as it."

"It's a phoenix." Harry said, "I saw it in the principal's office, it seems to be called... Fawkes?"

"I'm more concerned about Professor Lupin..." Ron opened his mouth, "I don't know if you noticed that he was caught by the head and flew away, is this really okay?"

"If he is in the werewolf state, it's okay, their bodies are much stronger than wizards." Kyle said, "Okay, let's go back quickly, Professor Dumbledore should be waiting."

Several people hurriedly walked towards the castle.

And Sirius continued to stay in the appearance of a big dog, and didn't dare to change back.

The few people who returned to the castle did not meet Filch, nor did they meet the professors who were patrolling, and they came to the eighth floor smoothly.

Probably because they were told in advance, after seeing them, the gargoyle stone beast in charge of guarding the door jumped directly to the side, revealing the passage behind him.

Harry couldn't help but quicken his pace and walked in first. Sirius followed closely behind him, but you can see that his hind legs are shaking constantly, which seems to be very nervous.

The oak door at the end of the stairs was also open. Professor Dumbledore was wearing a pink strawberry velvet pajamas and standing behind the table.

"I think a lot of interesting things must have happened tonight, which made so many of you violate the school rules collectively."

He smiled and asked, "Do you want to drink some pumpkin juice before you tell these stories?"

"No, professor." The three people walking in front all shook their heads.

Harry was in a bad mood, and Ron and Hermione shook their heads subconsciously because they were nervous.

"Can I have a glass of lemonade?" Kyle said.

"Do you want sugar?" Professor Dumbledore asked.

"No sugar at all."

As soon as Kyle finished speaking, a glass of fresh lemonade appeared on the table next to him.

Kyle took it and took a sip. The sour taste also made him sober up a lot.

Before Kyle finished drinking, Harry couldn't help but say, "Professor, Sirius Black was wronged, and Peter Pettigrew was the real informer!"

"Oh!"

Professor Dumbledore looked at him in surprise.

"Although I thought the story tonight would be exciting, I didn't expect your first sentence to be beyond my expectations."

"So, how did you find out?" he asked, "As far as I know, Peter Pettigrew has been dead for twelve years, and he was awarded the Order of Merlin, First Class."

"That's fake, it's still alive!" Harry raised the cage he was holding tightly, "This is Peter!"

"It turned into a rat and hid in my house for twelve years." Ron added beside him, his face gloomy, as if Scabbers' true identity was an insult to his personality.

Dumbledore looked at Scabbers with his blue eyes.

Kyle also took out the Marauder's Map at the right time... In the principal's office, Peter Pettigrew's name was clearly displayed.

"Oh, I miss it so much." Dumbledore's eyes flickered. "I remember the last time I saw this map was fifteen years ago... Strange, shouldn't it be in Filch's office? Did I remember it wrong?"

Kyle took another sip of lemonade and said nothing.

Fortunately, Dumbledore didn't dwell on this matter, but motioned Harry to continue.

"So how did you find Peter? Because of this magical map?"

"Not all..." Harry shook his head, and then began to recount the story from the time Professor Lupin went to the Gryffindor common room.

Dumbledore didn't ask any questions during this time, just listened quietly.

Harry spoke very quickly, and finished in about ten minutes.

"So, it is Sirius Black?" Dumbledore looked at the big black dog sitting on the floor, "Animagus... I see, no wonder no one has ever found you."

The black dog barked and sat upright.

"He was also forced, Professor." Harry said quickly: "We all saw it, Scabbers... It was Peter who kept hitting his head against the wand. This can't be a normal pet, right."

Dumbledore didn't answer his question, but asked meaningfully: "Harry, you seem to believe what Sirius said, have you ever thought that maybe he was lying to you?"

"I don't think he lied to me." Harry said without hesitation: "I can feel that what he said is true... and if he was lying, he would definitely not dare to come here with us, right?"

"First of all, I have to thank you. Trust me, Harry. "

Dumbledore said calmly, "But it's late now, and after so many thrilling things, I suggest you go back to the dormitory, drink a cup of hot cocoa, and have a good sleep. "

"Then Professor, Sirius Black..."

"Leave it to me, Harry." Dumbledore smiled and said, "If he is innocent, I promise to give you a satisfactory answer. "

"Well... okay..."

In fact, Harry still has a lot to say, which is related to whether he can leave the Dursleys and go to a place where he doesn't need to hide the magic book under the floor.

But Dumbledore said so, he could only nod and walk towards the door with Ron and Hermione.

"Then good night, professor..."

The three left the headmaster's office one after another.

Kel was originally following, but he just turned around and heard Dumbledore say, "Kel, can you wait a moment?"
