Chapter 33 A Newborn Who Can Be a Helper(1/2)
Dumbledore went to Azkaban overnight.
The fact that Petr was the murderer behind the plotting that incident was too serious. Dumbledore must find out the incident and the truth of that year as soon as possible.
If all this is true...
Then the destructive power of the little dwarf Peter is too great.
certainly.
Dumbledore had to go to Azkaban himself.
Because Snape is not very suitable for wandering in Azkaban.
In the past, Severus Snape defected to Voldemort, a Death Eater that Voldemort highly recognized. Otherwise, Voldemort would not have hesitated for a moment when he killed Lily Potter.
only.
Later, something happened to Voldemort.
All the Death Eaters under Voldemort were locked up in Azkaban.
This also means that the Death Eaters detained by Azkaban are all Snape's past colleagues, and they may not be happy to meet.
In addition, Snape and Sirius Black's relationship was very tense.
If Snape had been there together, I was afraid that he would not be able to ask any questions. The two of them would have humiliated each other through the cell for a night...
late at night.
On a small island in the North Sea waters.
This island is cold all year round, and almost no one dares to stay here.
Because in addition to the very cold island and the surrounding waters, there are also a group of strange and terrifying dark creatures living on the island.
Dementor.
This kind of creature is hollow and invisible. By absorbing human happiness and courage, it can survive, and even when it wants to kill people, it can directly absorb a human soul.
Even if humans approach them, they will lose their courage and happiness and truly feel the ultimate darkness of the world.
There is no doubt.
This is one of the most terrifying creatures in the magic world.
However, the dementors' intelligence was very low, and the Ministry of Magic reached an agreement with the dementors to make them prisoners of Azkaban.
This small island in the waters of the North Sea is both the prison of the magic world, Azkaban, and the residence of creatures such as Dementors.
When Dumbledore arrived at this island, the dementors immediately noticed strangers. A group of dementors instantly gathered into a dense black shadow and rushed towards him!
However, when they smelled Dumbledore's scent, they quickly stopped their movements, and they knew that this was a very threatening person!
Dumbledore took out another document with the special seal of the Minister of Magic. The dementors smelled the breath of ink and quickly flocked to retreat.
After Dumbledore dealt with the prisoners, he slowly walked along the road on the island into the Castle of Azkaban.
When Dumbledore walked in, he saw a group of Death Eaters imprisoned in Azkaban Castle, most of whom were tortured by dementors.
When these prisoners who had long lost their energy saw Dumbledore, they pulled the small window of the prison like crazy!
"Dumbledore!"
"President Dumbledore!"
Every prisoner couldn't help but shout Dumbledore's name, as if he had seen hope of leaving Azkaban, hoping that Dumbledore would save him.
certainly.
Of course, there are also those who don’t like Dumbledore.
For example, Voldemort's loyal fan Bella Lesterlanch, this crazy woman with messy hair lay on the ground and cursed Dumbledore: "The stubborn old guy... the principal of the magic school who betrayed his own blood... Bah, the traitor of the wizard!"
“…”
Dumbledore turned a deaf ear to this.
Because he has lived to his age and has reached his current status, whether it is abuse, questioning or praise, it is already an outsider for him.
Dumbledore breathed a sigh of relief, ignored his students who had embarked on the evil path, and walked step by step to a narrow cell.
Sirius Black lives here.
Sirius, a wizard with a very noble bloodline and surname, lives in this prison where no one is human or ghost, as if he doesn't care about anything.
Even the dementor could not find happiness from him.
Dumbledore looked at the skinny Sirius, frowned slightly and called his name softly.
"Blake..."
"Um?"
Sirius Black had been listening to the insult in this prison castle, and suddenly he heard a familiar voice calling his name and was a little uncomfortable.
Sirius lay on the floor, slowly turned his head and looked at the small window of the prison door. He slowly turned over and got up, almost crawling to the prison door.
"Dumbledore?"
"I have one thing to ask you."
Dumbledore stared at Sirius' eyes, and the old man's eyes were unprecedentedly sharp: "Tell me, was it you who betrayed the safe house of Porter, or Peter the little dwarf?"
"You know?"
Sirius Black took a breath of turbid air and lowered his head to himself: "I believed in the wrong person at the beginning. I thought he was still our friend. Now, it doesn't make sense to say this..."
My best friend, James Porter, is dead.
Only the orphans left behind, Harry Potter, Dumbledore, Hager and others, did not allow him to raise him, or even approach him.
Everything seems to make no sense now.
Instead of appeaseing Sirius Black's emotions, Dumbledore continued to ask in a deep voice: "Did you do that explosion in the Muggle world eight years ago or did Peter do it yourself?"
“…Is there any point?”
Sirius Black raised his hand indifferently and was about to lie back on the floor: "Anyway, the traitor is dead, and I don't want to live anymore..."
"tell me!"
Dumbledore's voice suddenly became much louder.
"He did it."
Sirius Black answered the question immediately, recalling the scene of that day: "I blocked the traitor on a crowded street corner, leaving him nowhere to escape. He created an explosion and committed suicide..."
"I see."
Dumbledore nodded slowly.
After saying that, the old man was about to turn around and leave. Before leaving, he glanced at the decadent Sirius Black and continued in a deep voice: "If we can find evidence to prove that all this is true, we will find a way to get you out of sin..."
“No need for that…”
Sirius Black sat slowly on the ground and leaned against the prison door and said slowly: "Everything is my own mistake, what can I do even if I go out..."
"You can meet James' son Harry Potter."
Dumbledore seemed to want to give Sirius Black again at this moment, and said softly: "In two years left, Harry will be eleven years old and will be able to study in Hogwarts soon..."
"Are you willing to let me take care of Harry?"
Sirius Black flipped up almost instantly!
The man rekindled his hope for freedom at this moment. He grabbed the small window of the prison door and looked at Dumbledore in a hurry: "When will you let me see Harry! Let's go now!"
“Not now.”
Dumbledore slowly shook his head and continued: "Harry still needs to stay in the Muggle World for a while... I must also thoroughly find out the truth about that year, find evidence as soon as possible, and let you leave Azkaban."
This is the most critical point.
In fact, Dumbledore has now believed Sirius Black's explanation, and he has already determined in his heart that Peter the little dwarf is the real culprit behind everything.
But there is not enough evidence...
The Ministry of Magic will not allow Sirius to leave.
This is the very complicated part of the Ministry of Magic. When they locked Sirius in, they didn't even conduct a trial. Now they want to release Sirius but they will definitely need evidence.
"I see…"
Sirius Black lowered his head weakly.
Although he was still a little dejected, at least he had hope in his heart.
If it weren't for the worry that Dumbledore might not have completely re-trust him, Sirius Black actually wanted to escape from prison...
The days are still long.
Black can wait slowly.
Sooner or later, one day he will be able to meet his children openly.
To be continued...
