Chapter 249： Snape's weakness

Mike looked at Peter, the smirking little dwarf star in front of him with interest, and completely ignored the hand he was reaching for him.

He had always thought that Animagus' transformation was simply turning people into some kind of animal. Now it seems that even this mature human transformation technique will have a certain degree of impact on the caster.

For example, Peter Pettigrew and Sirius Black in front of them.

Because Blake often maintained the dog form during this period, even now he still exhibits some general animal-specific movements, such as using his nose to sniff others at every turn.

Peter is even more serious, he has been in rat form for more than ten years.

This made him approach the mouse in both his looks and behavior.

‘It seems that the risk assessment of polymorphism has to be raised one more level. ’

Thinking of this, Mike kicked Peter away, who wanted to hug his thigh.

"Mr. Peter, can you explain why you are still alive?"

Fudge was obviously in a very good mood now. He squatted down with difficulty, checked Peter's hand carefully, and asked kindly after finding that his hand was indeed missing a finger.

Peter also clearly noticed the change in Fudge's mood at the moment, and quickly grabbed Fudge's trench coat and explained:

"Mr. Minister! It's great to see you again! I heard that you also awarded me the Merlin Medal. Is this true? And my mother, how is she?"

"I regret that your mother passed away shortly after your'sacrifice'." Fudge broke Peter's hand in disgust, then took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands. "Please answer my question. Peter. Why are you still alive? Why are you here?"

"I'm just afraid, afraid that the mysterious man and his men will continue to chase me down! So I hid!" Peter screamed, "Yes, Black! That lunatic! Did you catch him?"

"It looks like you are not going to tell me the truth."

Fudge was dissatisfied with Peter's answer, which was not the answer he needed at all.

But he didn't bother to ink with Fudge anymore. There are special interrogators in the Auror army, so it would be nice to leave things like finding the truth to professionals.

So he said and patted his hand, and then the two Aurors escorted Peter, who was crying and crying, to the prison inside Hogwarts.

Yes, there are prisons inside Hogwarts.

This was originally the place where Hogwarts was used to imprison enemies when it was founded. After the war in the European magic world stopped, this place became a place specially used to punish students who made mistakes. It was not completely abandoned until Dumbledore became the principal. .

However, the abandonment is abandoned, and the various facilities in the prison, including torture instruments, have been very well maintained.

All this is thanks to Filch, the Hogwarts dumb gun cleaner has been looking forward to restarting this prison to punish the students who have been against him.

Now, Mr. Filch's wish has finally been realized in half. Although it is not the students who made mistakes that are punished, at least these things that he has carefully maintained can be considered useful.

When Mike and Fudge came to the prison, they saw that the Aurors were torturing Peter Pettigrew.

Their interrogation method is very simple, that is waterboarding.

As the name implies, water torture is a criminal law that uses water.

Tie the subject of interrogation to an inclined table, keeping the subject's head low.

Then he covered his face with a wet towel, and poured water on the towel continuously.

The most painful way to die in the world is to die by drowning, and this criminal law can make the prisoner feel the feeling of drowning infinitely without taking his life, thus forcing the prisoner to feel the pain of life is better than death. .

This criminal law is very easy to use, but in fact wizards have better interrogation methods.

For example, Veritaserum and the heart-cutting curse.

But the former will make the interrogator mentally retarded, and obviously cannot be used on people like Peter who are not yet sure whether they are criminals.

The latter is one of the three unforgivable curses, and the most notorious one, of course they cannot be used by law enforcers.

As for the mind of the goddess, unless it is a legendary wizard who has reached the level of Dumbledore, it can only be used in interrogation to obtain some memory fragments, which is not very effective.

The cold water was poured on Peter’s face at a very slow speed but it caused him great pain. He screamed bitterly, but because the face was still covered with a wet towel, others could only hear a little dullness. ring.

It was these muffled noises that excited Black who was being held in the next cell.

He kept banging against the iron door of the prison, and there were some strange sounds in his mouth that did not seem to be human.

Perhaps the guard on the side thought he was too noisy, so he drew a whip on his face.

A deep bloodstain appeared on Black's face in an instant, and the fine blood beads kept oozing out of it, which made it very painful.

But Black seemed to feel no pain at all. He stretched out his tongue and licked the blood droplets that flowed to the corner of his mouth, and became even more excited.

Fudge was obviously not quite used to this kind of scene. He turned his head in disgust, and blocked Mike's eyes with his hand, and said:

"Oh, Merlin! Stop it, how can you use such crude methods!?"

The guards in the prison poked their lips when they heard this. These were basic operations for them, and every prisoner they caught suffered such a blow.

All these Minister Fudge knows!

Although they were complaining in their hearts, they stopped their movements after seeing Mike whose eyes were covered by Fudge.

"Mike, there is no need for you to follow me down. You are a good boy, and you are destined to have a bright future in the future. Good, go up and find your classmates to play."

Fudge said this to Mike in a soothing tone. He is really a headache for Mike. Isn't it okay to stay on top? Why do you have to follow yourself all the way?

However, Mike was obviously not ready to give up like this. He pulled away Fudge's fat hand and asked:

"What are you going to do with Black and Lupin?"

Hearing this, Fudge turned his head and looked at the guards with iron masks. Seeing them shaking their heads, he said to Mike:

"Peter is still reluctant to confess, so I plan to transfer him, Blake and Lupin to the Ministry of Magic as soon as possible for the next interrogation. There are still too few tools here."

When Fudge said that there were too few tools here, Peter, who was lying on the table like a dead dog, suddenly struggled violently, but then, a pair of large hands wearing dragon leather gloves covered his mouth.

Fudge glanced at him before continuing:

"But don't worry, please trust us. With our Ministry of Magic's ability, we will investigate the truth of the matter very soon. If the matter is really what you said, then we will return Blake's innocence."

"In this case, I beg you."

Mike thanked him, and after bidding farewell to Fudge, he left the gloomy prison.

And shortly after he left, Peter's painful screams rang from the prison.

When Mike came to the auditorium again, Harry was sitting in the corner sullenly, while Hermione on the side was constantly comforting him.

The curious Mike immediately stepped forward and asked what was wrong.

Harry obviously didn't want to talk about it, and Hermione dumped it all out of it.

It turned out that the Christmas gift Harry received this morning: Firebolt was taken away.

"Don't be upset. I have asked Professor McGonagall. She didn't even give the Firebolt. Such an unknown gift must have been used to harm you! Think about it! When you used that firebolt to go to the sky, it suddenly lost control, and then you fell down and turned into mud..."

Facing Hermione's persuasion, Harry's lips squirmed. Although he didn't speak, his disdain was no longer necessary.

Mike knew what Harry wanted to say. He had received an invisibility cloak in the first grade. It was his father's relic and one of the Three Hallows of Death.

Although it was also an unknown gift, it had never been an accident in Harry's hands for so long.

And with Hermione’s emotional intelligence, she obviously didn’t find Harry’s dissatisfaction, she went on to say:

"Don't worry too much, those Aurors just took your Firebolt away for investigation, and will return it to you when the investigation is completed and it is confirmed that it is okay!"

"Oh! You are too naive, Miss Jack of All Trades!"

An unpleasant voice came, and the three of them turned around to find that Malfoy was looking at them arrogantly.

"Firebolt is the highest level of alchemy work today. This level of thing is easy to disassemble and it is difficult to install it again. I am afraid you can only harvest a bunch of pieces by then! Scarhead Potter!"

Hermione and Harry glared at Malfoy when they heard this.

But Malfoy completely ignored their cannibalistic eyes, looked at Mike maliciously and said:

"Professor Snape wants you to visit his office, Tony!"

After that, Malfoy laughed twice and took his two attendants out of the auditorium.

"Snape must be fine looking for you!" Hermione said.

"Yeah, that old bat is the worst!" Harry echoed, "By the way, do you know what happened today? Why are there so many Aurors in Hogwarts?"

Mike smiled happily and said to Harry and Hermione with a victory sign: "Don't worry, he can't help me. I will explain the rest to you slowly when I come back."

Afterwards, he left the auditorium under the worried eyes of Harry and Hermione.

The furnishings in Snape's office are the same as when Mike came last time, all kinds of bottles, cans and specimens make it very gloomy.

The only difference from the last time I came was that there was still an angry Snape in the office at the moment.

Mike had just stepped into the office when a slender hand poked in front of him, if he didn't look up in time, he would have to be poked to death by it.

Then Snape's angry voice came.

"give me!"

Mike took a step back, adjusted his collar and said:

"I don't know what you are talking about, Professor Snape."

"You know! You thief! Give me back what you stolen from my storage room!"

Mike curled his lips. If he returned the half-blood prince's notes directly to you, wouldn't he also admit that I had stolen something from you?

Then you still can't punish me in confinement?

Thinking about this, Mike decided to continue playing stupid.

"Professor Snape, you can't slander me, I've never stolen anything." Mike drew out his ears, and then said with another movement of flying earwax.

Snape froze when he heard the words, grabbed Mike by the collar, pressed it against Mike's ear, and said with a strong voice of anger:

"Don't pretend to be stupid with me! Since you will be invisible, you must get that thing!"

"Oh, Shen Feng Wuying Curse I learned from a textbook on potions that I found. Is this book yours?" Mike smiled meaningfully, "but the owner's signature on that textbook It's a half-blood prince. Are you the half-blood prince?"

The expression on Snape's face froze, and taking this opportunity, Mike broke free of Snape's big hand.

"The half-blood prince is simply the most talented wizard I have ever seen! I tried to configure some simple potions according to his notes, and found that his formula was even better than the textbook!" Mike pretended to be a posture. Said, "It's just that he is really a little second, so he would call himself the Half-Blood Prince!"

Snape was a little guilty, and instinctively wanted to echo Mike's words to prove that he was not the half-blood prince.

But he immediately reacted when he saw McNay's scornful owing expression.

fk! This kid has long known that I am a half-blood prince, now he is just humiliating me!

"Fuchsia!"

Snape shot angrily, but Mike, who had been wary, took his wand and easily blocked it.

"Wow! Professor Snape, you actually attacked the students for no reason!" Mike said in a flamboyant gesture, "What about your quality and education as a teacher?"

"Don't talk nonsense! I'm going to kill you brat today!"

Snape felt so angry that he was about to explode. At this moment, he had decided that even if all of his second-year past was exposed, he would severely teach the hateful kid in front of him a lesson he will never forget.

And Mike and even Snape had been pushed to the limit by him, so he quickly admitted:

"Stop! I'll pay you back!"

Snape put down the half-raised wand but you have to give me your other notes, which are low grades, too advanced to understand. "

Snape's wand was raised again.

"Don't! Even if you are not afraid that the half-blood prince will be known by others, are you not afraid that the nasal discharge will be known by others?

Snape's hands froze again.

Mike was relieved when he saw this, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said:

"I know everything about your past from Black and Lupin. To be honest, I still admire you. The poor boy who was once bullied became the world-famous potion master, while the rich second generation who once bullied you Dead to death, waste to waste, what is this? This is a counterattack by Diosi!"

"Shut up! What are you trying to say!"

"I want knowledge, as long as you can give me knowledge, I will keep a secret for you!" Mike said solemnly, "Think about it, if Harry knew about you and his mother, what would he think of you? How will your students laugh at you privately when they know your past?"
