"your name?"

"Sirius Olaine Black"

"Why you came to Hogwarts"

"Avenge the Potters and kill the traitor. [Read the latest chapter]"

"Who is the traitor?"

"Peter Pettigrew."

When Hermione heard this, she took a step back involuntarily and accidentally stepped on Crookshanks' fluffy tail, causing the big cat to scream.

"Why do you say he's a traitor, no matter who says you're the Potter's secret keeper, you're the traitor." Hermione asked with a trembling voice, and what Blake said was even more incredible than her suspicions.

"The original decision was for me to be the Keeper, but at the last minute the Keeper was changed to Peter Pettigrew, this was my suggestion to the Potters, I thought it was the best plan.. It was a coup.. Voldemort would definitely Come after me, but what I didn't expect was that Peter Pettigrew betrayed the Potters." He answered blankly, but Hermione saw two lines of tears streaming down Blake's face.

She has also drank Veritaserum. Under the action of the potion, the person who takes it will hardly resist the questioner, nor will she show any emotions, but Black still has such strong emotional fluctuations.

Hermione didn't expect that her little trick of delaying time actually worked, and this murderous "criminal" actually drank her potion without hesitation.

But what surprised her even more was the "truth" that Blake said under the effect of Veritaserum.

"Then what was the real situation on the street at that time? Since you were innocent, why didn't you seek justice in Azkaban, you can ask for help from Headmaster Dumbledore, after the fall of You-Know-Who, even some Death Eaters You've cleaned yourself up, and you're still at large, why are you imprisoned there for twelve years?" Hermione continued to ask, she needed more information to judge the authenticity.

"I was driving Peter Pettigrew into a dead end, and he was screaming all over the street, saying I betrayed James and Lily. Then, before I could curse him, he used the The wand in the back blew up the street, killed everyone within twenty feet of him, and fled into the gutter with the other rats... As for Azkaban, I indirectly killed Potter Couple, this may be another punishment for me,"

Hermione didn't know what to say now. If Blake hadn't lied, from her point of view, this approach was too stupid. Taking other people's faults to punish herself, the real murderer would go unpunished. This kind of redemption really makes sense. ?

She wondered if what Sirius said was true,

Then maybe Harry's childhood wouldn't be so painful.

It might not be entirely his fault, and Hermione searched her mind for the memory that Sirius Black had been cast into Azkaban without being tried.

"Then why were you locked up in a cage before?" Hermione shook her head to keep herself from thinking about the mess, and now her purpose was no longer to delay time, but to get more from Black's mouth. message.

"I..." Just as Blake was about to answer, his eyes gradually became clearer. He found that his consciousness had recovered. When he answered the previous answer, he was like an outsider. He couldn't imagine that one day he would be able to explain in such a plain tone. The story of the year.

"It's a terrible potion. I heard that the Ministry of Magic also wanted to use this drug to judge me, but it is said that the differences of opinion are too great, so it's not a matter of fact, and it was used in this situation today." Blake's expression looked surprised. , the eye sockets are more deeply sunken in, looking very haggard.

"Harry's friend, can you trust me now?" Blake continued.

Hermione was at war between heaven and man, constantly analyzing the authenticity of Black's words from all aspects.

The true efficacy of Veritaserum, she had tested it herself.

Logically speaking, if he really wants to target Harry, there is absolutely no need for him to gain his own trust. Stunning himself and holding him will completely achieve his goal.

Plus Crookshanks went out of his way to help him.

And some other examples, such as Hermione, she took advantage of the time she stole the "Power Potion", and she also read many books about Animagus, this is a very advanced spell, and it must be extremely difficult to maintain. With high concentration, Peter Pettigrew said that he had amnesia and could only maintain the form of a mouse, which was not tenable at all. If he really lost the ability to cast spells, he should return to his original form at any time.

And her own intuition, deep in her heart, she was willing to believe in this thin man with a shaggy beard and disheveled hair, because in Black, Hermione felt sincerity, which was especially compared to the pretentious feeling she felt in front of Peter Pettigrew before. strong.

"Not quite yet," said Hermione, shaking her head, "but now I'm willing to go and verify the truth with you." Having said that, Hermione had actually been persuaded.

"I can confront that traitor, but he won't dare, he's revelling in his heroic role right now." Black replied to Hermione, walking to Malfoy's desk and starting to rummage.

"Mr. Black." Hermione said politely, "We don't have time now, and I still have a question, which is the unfinished question, why are you in that cage?" Xu, how to explain this iron cage?

"What a nostalgic feeling." At the table, Blake touched a blank old parchment with his slender palm, his eyes full of reminiscence, and he didn't seem to answer.

"Mr. Black, please answer my question. Even if there is no Veritaserum, this question is very important. This may be a conspiracy." Hermione repeated seriously.

"Okay, it's really a shame to admit that I fell into the hands of a student and a Squib." Blake shrugged and answered the question with a half-covered smile while showing a hideous smile.

"I found his location." Blake pointed to the small ink dot on the Marauder's map and said, moving his body as he spoke, his hands trembling with excitement, it seemed that he would rush out of the room at any time. Confront Peter Pettigrew.

Of course, it is more likely to take revenge directly and use a green light to directly end the life of the traitor.

"Do you just want to rush over like this? Do you know how many Aurors are around the school now? I don't know if the thing you're holding that looks like a map is real or not, but whether it's true or not, you're rushing right now. Going out will definitely not achieve your goal, our best way now is to find Professor Dumbledore, he will solve all this." Hermione said calmly, spread her arms, and firmly stopped Sirius's In front of her, but just after she said these words, her face suddenly turned ugly, because Professor Dumbledore had been away from the school for some time.

The only teacher she could fully trust was not at Hogwarts now!
