The Hogwarts Emerald

Chapter 342: Dark Moon Face
Fortunately, there was no one behind Remus Lupin, so the nesting doll behavior stopped.

When old friends meet, a simple "long time no see" is worth a thousand words. Lupin's reunion with Black is naturally thanks to the help of Director Drizzt.

This week, Blake was recuperating in Twilight Cottage, and Ada was tortured in Snape's dungeon. But Ada did not do nothing. Cleaning up the Flobberworms and leeches made her less impetuous and she thought a lot more carefully.

No matter how strong she is, after all, Ida is just a student, and her words have no weight. The Rosier family had previously disdained her, and Umbridge dared to pierce her, all for this reason.

Rosier compromised because of the pressure from his grandmother Vida. Although he would not pretend to obey, he would not support Ada with all his strength, such as the Ministry of Magic's trial of Buckbeak.

Unless Ada does something earth-shattering now, or beats Dumbledore to the ground, she will be looked down upon wherever she goes.

There's nothing we can do about it, she's a student and a minor!

No one would believe a fugitive, and the testimony of underage students was not credible, so Ada needed a witness, someone to witness her conversation with Blake.

The first person that came to mind was of course Remus Lupin. There was nothing he could do about it since he and Black were good friends. He was the first person that came to mind when he searched for someone.

But Ada changed her mind and realized that the student's words were not credible, and the werewolf's words were even less credible. Lupin was indeed not suitable.

There was no other way, so Ada had to ask Dumbledore to come out. Someone would believe what Dumbledore said! So Ada went to the principal's office in the morning and blocked the principal in his bedroom.

In the end, Dumbledore, who was eager to deal with personal problems, admitted defeat. After signing countless unequal treaties with Ada, he followed Ada to the Twilight Cottage with a confused look on his face.

In the renovated reception room, Dumbledore saw Lupin, who also looked confused. Both of them had no idea what was going on. They were invited here by Ada and the twins respectively early in the morning.

Lupin was actually even more confused than Dumbledore. He was carried out by two students early in the morning. Anyone would be confused!

After seeing the Whomping Willow, the secret passage, and the rebuilt Shrieking Shack, the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor became even more confused. If Dumbledore had not been there, Comrade Werewolf would have thought that he had been killed by the prophet.

The two professors sat side by side on the sofa, with soft candies and drinks on the coffee table in front of them. They were forced to remain silent and were not even allowed to move at will. Garlon and Crookshanks were responsible for watching them.

In order to find out what Ada and the twins were up to, Professors Dumbledore and Lupin let themselves be manipulated and really didn't make any noise.

Soon, voices were heard in the bedroom. Hearing the familiar voice and the familiar name, Lupin could no longer sit still and wanted to rush into the bedroom immediately.

If Dumbledore hadn't held Lupin down in time, Ada's play might have ended long ago.

As the conversation in the bedroom progressed, the truth that had been hidden for many years was revealed, and Lupin became more and more shocked. Lupin was not sad because he was not trusted, but felt guilty for his misunderstanding, sad for Sirius, and sad for their experience.

Twelve years. How many twelve years are there in a person’s life?

The four people in the bedroom communicated with words, while the two people outside the bedroom communicated with eyes and gestures. It was not until Ada said "right, professor" that Dumbledore and Lupin walked to the bedroom door together.

As for the nesting dolls that appeared at the end, it was an impromptu creation of the chief director Dumbledore, without any communication with director Drizzt.

In the bedroom, Fred and George gave up their positions at the door and walked to the window to stand with Ada.

The three of them smiled at each other. They were very satisfied with everything that happened today. It not only satisfied their curiosity, but also allowed them to see the warm scene of old friends reuniting. It was the best of both worlds.

Remus Lupin stepped towards the bed, and Sirius Black struggled to get up, and they hugged each other like brothers.

"When you get old, you just can't bear to see such touching scenes." Dumbledore said jokingly, "In my mind, you are still sixteen or seventeen years old, laughing and playing recklessly."

"We have to find him!" said Blake.

"We'll find him!" said Lupin.

The room was full of smart people, and as the last ones, Fred and George played the role of fools very well. Fred said, "I know you two are happy to meet each other after a long time, but I still want to say something unhappy." "Scabbers... Peter, he disappeared." George continued, "Just the day before Sirius broke into the common room."

Ron's scream echoed throughout the common room at that time, and almost everyone in Gryffindor knew that Ron's mouse was eaten by Hermione's cat. The blood on the sheets and the ginger cat hair were the evidence.

There were no corpses or body parts, which probably meant that Crookshanks was a very clean eater?

But Peter is an Animagus, he is a wizard, how could he be eaten by a cat? Coupled with what Peter had done before, everyone naturally knew that Peter had faked his death again and used the same old trick.

On the one hand, he can avoid the entanglement of Crookshanks and Garlon, and on the other hand, he can avoid Blake's pursuit, killing two birds with one stone.

Sure enough, on the night of the Quidditch victory, Sirius Black visited the common room with a sharp blade and raised a knife beside Ron's bed.

However, Peter had already run away, and Sirius not only gained nothing, but was also injured by Ada, and later almost died from the infection.

Peter's plan almost succeeded, and he almost got an unexpected reward. But it was just this little bit short that Blake survived and told the truth of twelve years ago.

The only thing missing was Crookshanks and Garlon, two incredibly smart pets who gave Peter a lot of trouble.

Hogwarts is very big, with a castle, towers, playgrounds, docks, forbidden forest, etc. It is not easy to find the missing Peter or a mouse in the school.

This is the case when Peter has not left school. Once he leaves school, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"I don't think Peter will leave school. He doesn't dare. As long as he is still in school, we can find him." Lupin said confidently, and then he took out an old parchment from his pocket, "Does it look familiar?"

"Of course!" said Sirius Black excitedly, looking at the parchment as if he were seeing an old friend again.

Not only Sirius was familiar with the parchment, Ada and the twins were also familiar with it. Dumbledore was the only one in the bedroom who didn't know the use of the parchment.

Today is a day full of surprises for Dumbledore. Black was caught by Ada. Black was indeed innocent, but what is this parchment?
Holding the Marauder's Map, Lupin looked at Ada and the twins. A sinister smile appeared on his face. He said, "Don't Miss Drizzt and the two Mr. Weasley look familiar?"

Ada nodded in agreement, but the twins shook their heads in denial. The three looked at each other, and then Ada began to shake her head in denial, while the twins began to nod in agreement.

"Harry didn't betray you. He didn't tell you how he got the map." Lupin said with a smile, "But, Sirius, why don't you come!"

As he spoke, Lupin handed the parchment and his wand to Sirius.

Sirius took the wand and parchment, and gently stroked the parchment with his rough hands, just like treating his old lover. Sirius tapped the parchment with his wand and said, "I solemnly swear that I have no bad intentions!"

The parchment was no longer ordinary, revealing its true appearance, and the entire Hogwarts appeared on the paper. Looking at the thin ink lines and small black dots on it, Dumbledore suddenly felt that it was too difficult to be the headmaster of these people...

Ada and the twins pretended to be calm. Since Harry didn't betray them, they would never admit it even if they were beaten to death. What is the Marauder's Map? They have never heard of it!

Fortunately, fortunately Professor McGonagall was not invited over. It is really a blessing in disguise!

"Still refusing to admit it?" Lupin continued. "Have you three ever wondered who Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs really are?"

Now that things have come to this, how could Ada and the twins not understand that they were just a fake and had met the real boss.

Looking at the smile on Professor Lupin's face, Ada felt that he had deliberately made it clear in front of Dumbledore.

Tell me! What is your purpose in doing this? Is it to avenge Sirius Black?
