“This is impossible.”

Dumbledore immediately doubted the truth of the matter.

As the principal of Hogwarts, Dumbledore once saw Peter, who was following Potter and his gang when he went to school.

From which perspective...

Peter, the Petite, has no conditions to become the Dark King.

Even if it is James Porter, Sirius Black, Severus Snape, who want to become the Dark King, it is more reliable than Peter, who is the Dark King...

Petr...

He can only barely be called a fairly good wizard.

"I know it's hard for you to believe."

Snape took a deep breath and looked at Dumbledore and said in a deep voice: "But I saw him with my own eyes, and he even told me smugly just now!"

"Everything in the past is moving according to his plan. Petdard is the traitor who really betrayed Lily and the others back then. Everything is his conspiracy!"

Snape simply and neatly trayed the news he learned: "Because Sirius' idiot thought that Little Dwarf was a waste and would not attract Voldemort's attention, so Little Dwarf became the secret person in the safe house..."

“…”

Dumbledore slowly frowned.

This may indeed be true.

This reason is indeed reasonable because after Voldemort and Porter died, Sirius went crazy to chase Peter the dwarf.

Snape leaned against the wall weakly and closed his eyes: "Peak Dwarf knew in advance that Lily had learned to sacrifice herself to counter Voldemort's spell, and told Voldemort the secret of the safe house, so that they could die together..."

Snape suppressed his pain and anger and continued in a deep voice: "That despicable bastard... stole Voldemort's knowledge, and now his rodless casting is more skillful than anyone I've ever seen!

In order to hide himself, he used the idiot Black to create an explosion eight years ago to fake death and escape. Until now he has gained enough strength to emerge..."

"And he is no longer afraid of being discovered."

"Because he no longer fears your power."

"He even arranged the next thing long ago."

"Dumbledore, he had already arranged everything."

Snape slowly opened his eyes, stared at Dumbledore, and continued in a deep voice: "That guy told me that the reason why Voldemort was able to live forever is because Voldemort created the Horcrux in advance!"

“…Horcrux.”

Dumbledore's eyes were involuntarily wide.

The appearance of this noun makes everything understandable.

The reason why Voldemort was not dead or even resurrected sooner or later was because he had a horde of energy that could protect his soul and approached infinitely for immortality...

If Voldemort's Horcrux is not solved, it means that the wizarding world will never be able to solve the threat of Voldemort's return.

indeed.

The design of the Petdwarf is exquisite.

Even Dumbledore couldn't find any solution.

If you waste time now to hunt down the dwarf Peter, you will have no time to find the Horcrux. Voldemort may be resurrected at any time, and it will eventually lead to a catastrophe in the magic world.

but…

After all, it's not completely impeccable.

Because Dumbledore probably guessed something.

"If it's really a Horcrux..."

Dumbledore fell into deep thought and continued in a deep voice: "I think I already know what the reason is. I will find a way to solve this matter as soon as possible. As long as you find the clues, you may be able to find it soon..."

"Did you have any clues?"

Snape felt a little relieved, and asked with some concern: "Voldemort created six Horcruxes, and there is also a secret Horcrux you must know, and seven Horcruxes. It may be dangerous to solve each Horcrux. Is this true?"

"Wait...seven?"

Hearing this number, Dumbledore looked at Snape suddenly!

Is this a joke?

Generally speaking, it is very dangerous to create a Horcrux. That guy Voldemort actually has seven Horcruxes!

Even in addition to the so-called secret Horcrux, there are six completely unknown Horcruxes!

When will this help him find it?

and…

It is not easy to destroy the Horcrux!

“So…”

Snape's expression gradually became ugly and he whispered: "You don't know... how many Horcruxes Voldemort has made?"

“…In theory, it’s very dangerous to make Horcruxes.”

Dumbledore, the grey-bearded old man, began to explain the trouble of making Horcrux: "Every time Voldemort made a Horcrux, he had to divide his soul into pieces. Generally speaking, no one dared to divide his soul into so many parts."

"but…"

Snape clenched his fist and punched him in the wall: "He is a madman! We all know that he is a madman!"

A lunatic like Voldemort!

I will definitely create the Horcrux unscrupulously!

The figures that Petdwarf Peter said were correct. The murderer who had always pretended to be a coward was indeed ready to use Dumbledore in advance!

"Relax, Snape."

Dumbledore comforted Snape's emotions, raised his hand and cast a spell to heal the wound on Snape's fist, and continued: "Maybe everything is not that bad yet. What Peter said in the dwarf may not be true. We need to verify it first."

"How to verify it?"

“Azkaban.”

Dumbledore said a place that scared everyone in the wizarding world. The old man said calmly: "Maybe there is really an innocent person who atones. Just ask him and you will know if the person who betrayed the Porter family was Peter..."

Yes.

There is another party in Azkaban.

Sirius Black, who is said to be a Death Eater, created a shocking explosion with magic and murdered Petr and twelve Muggle humans.

Since many people know that the secret of the Porter's safe house was Sirius Black, they believe that Black defected to Voldemort and leaked the secret, which led to the murder of the Porter family.

Moreover, the person who conducted the trial of the Death Eaters back then was Bati Crouch, who did not pass the normal trial method at all, so he directly threw the Death Eaters into Azkaban Prison.

Sirius Black was not tried either.

Even Sirius himself doesn't care about this. He was still at the explosion scene when he was arrested.

Since Sirius Black was locked in Azkaban, no one has heard of him.

"We'll chase Peter first!"

After explaining to Dumbledore, Severus Snape immediately remembered the reason why he led Dumbledore to the first floor: "Maybe we can catch Peter directly now!"

What a pity.

After all, it's still too late.

There was heavy snow in Hogwarts tonight.

From the entrance of Hogwarts Castle to the entrance of the school, a row of footprints walking out in the snow was clearly visible, and Petr star Peter had left Hogwarts.

"I'll go to Azkaban."

Dumbledore patted Snape on the shoulder and continued to comfort the Potions professor: "Don't worry, it's still time for us. First, let's find out the truth of the past..."

"It must be him!"

Snape slowly squatted down, looked at the row of footprints in the snow, and gritted his teeth, "How could a man who mingled with James Porter, who was arrogant and crazy, always be a coward? He was pretending..."

When he talked about this, Snape even found another piece of evidence: "Peter, Petr... is a Gryffindor!"

exactly.

Gryffindor is the least lacking in courage.

Dumbledore felt that he didn't know what to say.

Generally speaking, shouldn’t such a guy who makes trouble behind the scenes be a Slytherin-born student?

All right.

The sequencing hat may indeed be a little problem.
