v4 Chapter 154： Peter turned into Ron?

Pride keeps others from loving you, prejudice keeps you from loving others.

Treat others with arrogance and prejudice, and what the other party does is naturally wrong.

This is also Blake's biggest problem.

Back then, if there was no such prejudice, he would have changed the secrecy, telling Lupin, one of the predators.

Maybe everything will be different.

Judging from Lupin, who was in contact with William, the professor would definitely do everything in his power to save Black.

At least Dumbledore would know the truth and wouldn't let him stay in Azkaban for twelve years.

Therefore, prejudice kills people, but Blake chose prejudice when he should not be prejudiced.

"Why didn't you let Dumbledore be the secret keeper at the beginning?" William stared at Blake and asked another sharp question.

"As far as I know, the principal has proposed that he should be the secret keeper!"

Blake raised his head and asked, "William, I overheard your conversations over the summer, and you have a safe house too.

Did you make Dumbledore the Keeper? "

"No." William shook his head, "I'm a keeper myself. I'm confident that nothing will happen, and it's still my home."

It wasn't that he hadn't considered letting Nico or Dumbledore be the keepers. In the end, I chose myself.

On the one hand, self-confidence, it was his home with Hermione and Anne. Only the confidential person can allow others to enter the house.

He can't always go to Dumbledore to apply, can he?

"That's right." Blake smiled sadly. “We thought so at the time, and we didn’t think anything would happen.

Not to mention, to trouble Dumbledore every time.

He was the keeper of at least twenty safe houses at the time, and even... more!

Countless Death Eaters wanted his life, and Voldemort regarded him as his most formidable opponent.

We don't want to put any more pressure on him, and we don't want to put all our eggs in the same basket.

So James chose me. "

William raised his head and frowned slightly. Hermione noticed his movement, and the two of them had a good connection. Without him asking, she said:

"What about James or Lily, why don't they both keep secrets themselves?"

Blake stared sullenly at the top of the cave.

"You were young and didn't know the situation at the time... Back then, the wizarding wars had been going on for several years.

People are dying every day... Familiar, unfamiliar, seen, never seen..."

He shook his head sadly and said, "In that kind of environment, anyone can die, and no one would naively think that he is the one who shouldn't die!"

"It's even more impossible for you to hide for the rest of your life because Voldemort wants to kill you, be a coward and watch your companions die one by one.

That's not Gryffindor! "

His voice growled from his throat.

"Even after Voldemort's order to kill, James and Lily still left the safehouse to fight secretly, to carry out missions for the Order of the Phoenix.

Whenever the two of them went out, they would stay home alone, looking after Harry as a baby. "

"But because of Voldemort's orders, the Death Eaters saw them like crazy.

They replaced the secrecy with me, who was much less stressed.

In this way, even if they have an accident, their family's daring loyalty mantra will function normally. "

"But someone leaked the secret and leaked the identity of my keeper.

On a whim, I secretly replaced it with Peter, to attract the attention of the Death Eaters by myself.

After I persuaded James on my own, I didn't tell Dumbledore and Remus for the reasons you already know. "

Blake's face contorted convulsively.

"...the day it happened, I went after Peter. I drove him to nowhere, and he shouted all over the street, saying I betrayed James and Lily.

Before I could kill him, he used a wand hidden behind his back, blew up the whole street, killed everyone within twenty feet of him, and fled into the gutter with the other rats...

I was not tried, nor did I take the initiative to defend myself, and I spent twelve years in Azkaban in remorse.

The whole thing...that's it. "

Blake clenched his fists, his lips trembled, and he closed his eyes.

"It's all my fault, if I hadn't persuaded James, he and Lily wouldn't have died... I killed them..."

There were faint tears in Hermione's eyes, the knuckles of both hands were white, and she tightly hugged William's arm.

Annie's face was full of tears, too, and she wiped it carelessly.

William's lips twitched, and in the end he just sighed silently.

Black's words make sense logically, and completely corroborate the previous speculation.

For example, Peter, a hero, why did he stay incognito for so many years as a mouse, and why did he become Tom's spy.

Because, he wasn't from here in the first place!

"If you don't believe me, just catch the mouse," Black pleaded.

"Just catch him and give him Veritaserum, and he'll know everything."

William waved his wand, unenchanted Blake, and made another chair, motioning him to sit down.

"Actually, we noticed something wrong with Scabbers at Christmas," William said softly.

Blake looked at William in astonishment.

"You..." he stammered. "How did you find out..."

Twelve years ago, Peter had already concluded that he was awarded a Merlin First Class Medal after his death, how could they still be aware of the abnormality?

He knew that William and Hermione were smart, but he didn't expect to be so...smart!

"That's not easy." He was inexplicably excited. "Go get him...he's with the Weasley boys."

"Earlier tonight, the rat died of illness." Hermione shook her head.

"What, died of illness?!" Blake was stunned.

"Peter is dead, he is really dead..." Blake was at a loss, not knowing whether to be happy or disappointed.

"Don't be in a hurry to be happy, a real mouse died." William said slowly.

"At Christmas, we told Dumbledore the guess and found Scabbers.

But when he used the Manifestation Spell, there was no reaction. "

"It must have been ripped off by Peter." Blake's voice was hoarse.

"He must have sensed the danger and found a similar mouse ahead of time. No one knows how to play dead better than him!

Thirteen years ago, he did this kind of thing! "

"That's the problem, we don't know where Peter is hiding now!" Hermione looked serious.

Blake thought for a while, then suddenly grinned:

"Marauder's map, we made a map. When I graduated, I deliberately asked Filch to take it away, thinking about staying and helping other students..."

He glanced at Annie and immediately used a slightly more refined word. "study!"

"That map could show names...if we find it..."

"You mean this?" William took out a sheepskin map.

He clicked, and it was immediately filled with lines and names.

"..."

Blake really wanted to know what the three little guys in front of him didn't know or didn't know.

He seriously doubted that if Ravenclaw needed the lost crown, the other party could give him a big surprise in minutes!

Black suppressed his frustration, picked up the map, and took a closer look.

After a while, he shook his head: "It's very similar...but the painting process is much better than what we made."

"This Hogwarts map is the Reborn Marauder's map," William explained.

"Many years ago, Fred and George stole the Marauder's Map from Filch's office.

I also improved the map according to the tracking spell, and the function is basically the same as the Marauder map. "

"That's great." Blake found this too, rubbing his hands in surprise. "We just need to find Peter's name on it..."

His expression froze.

If Peter could be found on the map, the pair of clever and outrageous little wizards in front of him would have gone to catch him.

"Peter must have erased his name." Blake was a little wiser, his eyes darkened.

"Or escape from Hogwarts."

Several people sighed at the same time.

William thought for a while, then looked at the Gryffindor lounge.

He suddenly had a crazy idea.

Ron was a little grumpy tonight!

He has no reason to recognize that mouse, not his own Scabbers.

After all, a piece has lived for so long, even if it is really imagined, there must be nuances.

Others will admit mistakes, he should not be right.

Professor Snape's office was stolen, Peter wouldn't steal the medicinal herbs, take the opportunity to brew the compound decoction, and become Ron, right?

And really Ron, was secretly imprisoned by Peter?

William was also taken aback by the thought.

His eyes wandered quickly over the Gryffindor dorm.

But then shook his head, denying the idea.

Because of the location in Harry's dormitory, there are clearly five names.

Except for Neville, three of them, the names representing Harry and Ron, were moving quickly in the dormitory.

Ron seemed to be chasing Harry...they were probably having fun.

Peter can erase his name, but he can't change his name directly to Ron.

If he turned into Ron with Polyjuice Potion, Ron himself would definitely be imprisoned and couldn't move so fast.

The name probably won't appear in the dorm either.

After all... maps don't lie!
