On the note in Lupin's hand, there were scribbled a series of sentences that no one else could understand. This was a code word invented by Sirius Black and James Potter when they were bored. Except for the robbers, No one can understand.
Although time has passed for a long time, Lupin quickly deciphered the meaning of the above-
"It wasn't me who betrayed the prongs, it was Wormtail who pretended to be a Weasley pet and stayed beside the Weasley who was the same year as Harry, but Wormtail has now escaped, so I I need your help, if you believe me, come to the forbidden forest to find me, you know how.
- Bigfoot"
Lupin read the contents of the note, and before he had time to think about the truth or falsehood, he felt a burst of heat in his body... The full moon came out, and he was about to start transforming.
Although the wolf poison potion can make the werewolves stay sane after transforming, it mainly reduces their aggression after transforming into wolves. They are still relatively slow in thinking and cannot think well.
So Lupin could only quickly stuff the note into his pocket, and then gradually turned into a gray-haired wolf with a roar.
After the transformation, Lupin walked around the screaming shack anxiously for two times, and then gradually calmed down. He came to the bedroom, jumped on the bed, and crouched down, staring at the opposite person with wolf eyes. I don't know what to think about the wall.
On the outskirts of the Forbidden Forest, far away from the Shrieking Shack, a **** dog was squatting on the ground, also looking up at the bright moon in the sky.
Lupin should have turned into a wolf by now, right? Then he should have discovered the note he left behind, but he didn't know if Lupin would believe him.
Sirius did not dare to go to Lupin directly, because although he thought that Lupin would give him time to explain, he was not sure whether Lupin could keep calm when he went to him, so he chose to let Lupin calm down. After you come down, find yourself again.
As for whether Lupin will listen to his explanation slowly after calming down, or set a trap to catch him, to be honest, Sirius is not very sure, but he can only gamble now.
It was a long, but actually short, night for Lupin and Sirius, and Lupin returned to his human form, but he was so weak that he didn't want to move now.
The physical weakness did not interfere with Lupin's thinking, as he lay on the bed in the Shrieking Shack, slowly analyzing the contents of the note in his pocket.
Pettigrew Peter is still alive, and he is the one who betrayed James and Lily, and he has been hiding in the Weasleys' house as a pet mouse...
Although this kind of thing sounds like a fantasy, but after Lupin calmed down and thought about it, he felt that it was not impossible. To be honest, Lupin was more willing to believe that the betrayer was Pettigrew than Sirius who betrayed James.
It's not that Lupin has any prejudice against Wormtail, but from what he knows of the two, the possibility of Wormtail betrayal is higher.
But many things do not develop according to personal ideas, so Lupin did not believe Black's words so easily.
Assuming the note is true, Pettigrew Peter is still alive and has become a Weasley family pet, does Sirius's actions after escaping Azkaban make sense?
Lupin recalled what had happened during this time...
Judging by the second time Sirius broke into the Gryffindor dormitory, this seems to be true, since he was looking for Ron, not Harry... but it is also possible that Sirius was wrong. The bed was discovered by Ron who woke up.
And most importantly, how did Sirius know Wormtail was still alive and hiding in the Weasleys when he was in Azkaban?
But if Sirius is lying...
So what's the point of him telling such a lie to himself? That would only reveal his whereabouts, wouldn't it?
As for the fact that Blake was trying to set a trap to kill himself...
He's a werewolf that most wizards despise, so what's the point of deceiving Black, a possible Death Eater, at the risk of being taken back to Azkaban?
Lupin lay on the floor thinking for a long time, until he fell asleep, unable to make up his mind whether he wanted to trust Sirius Black.
The sky gradually became brighter, and there was a rustling movement in the tunnel of the screaming shack. After a while, a house elf with shabby curtains and two different-colored wool socks on his feet got into the tunnel. Come out, in his hand, holding a long silver dinner plate, on which is placed food and cutlery for one person.
"Your breakfast, Professor!"
The elf came to the bedroom where Lupin was, and woke up the sleeping Lupin with a high-pitched voice, and put the plate in his hand beside him.
Lupin propped himself up a little and sat up, smiled and nodded at the elf.
"Thank you, Dobby."
This special house elf wearing socks is quite familiar to Lupin. During his transformation, his three meals and some daily necessities were sent by Dobby. Over time, the two of them got to know each other. .
Dobby bowed to Lupin, then burrowed back into the tunnel and left.
Lupin, on the other hand, continued to think about Black as he slowly ate the food from his plate.
However, what Lupin didn't expect was that when Dobby went from the secret passage of the beating willow to the screaming shack to deliver him food, it happened to be monitored by Harry's Marauder's Map.
Then Harry misunderstood...
Last school year, he was devastated by this little elf named Dobby.
Although the last time they met, the other party kept saying that he was reporting to him without the knowledge of his master, and the subsequent development seemed to prove that he was not lying, but Dobby never appeared again after that.
So Harry was still not sure if he was really helping him, or if the plot was sabotaged by Fish, and there was no follow-up.
And no matter whether Dobby was helping him or not, his mysterious master is still Voldemort's follower, and Sirius Black is also Voldemort's diehard, so is there a possibility...
Was Dobby helping Black and Lupin with the message, on orders from his master?
There were so many coincidences that Harry had to wonder about Dobby's situation, and Lupin's real stance.
Fortunately, Harry still remembered the lesson he received on a whim in first grade, so he didn't rush to confront Lupin immediately, and now that Dobby had left, even if he wanted to identify Lupin Ping, then he has to wait until he catches Dobby, and he will get all the money.
So Harry quickly put away the Marauder's map, and found Ron who was playing cards and Hermione who was reading a book. Naturally, a little skin cat as a guarantee of combat power was indispensable. Harry then shared his findings and analysis with them.
However, before they could discuss what to do next, they saw Fei Xu scratching his head in confusion...
"Huh? Didn't Fish tell you? Dobby was rescued from his former master by Albus and is now working for Hogwarts... he still gets paid every month. Dobby went to find Lupin in the morning, should he be delivering food to him?"
