The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

v3 Chapter 115: hunting down sirius

Bandit is a magical profession. They need to find a balance between fulfilling their goals (robbing) and surviving (not being killed by the officers and soldiers). For this reason, the bandits have a countermeasure: to become a bandit between the two administrative districts.

Sirius, who was born in the famous pure-blood Black family, must have never been in contact with bandits, but facing the pursuit of the Ministry of Magic, he adopted exactly the same strategy as the bandits: ran to a land where no one cares. This place needs to be close enough to Harry and also be able to escape the pursuers of the Ministry of Magic. After much deliberation, Sirius thinks that there is only one place that meets the requirements—the Shrieking Shack in Hogsmeade Village.

These days, Sirius has been holed up in the Shrieking Shack, which he considers his base camp.

This cabin was originally a "safe house" prepared by Dumbledore for Lupine. Whenever the full moon night comes, Lupine will come here to complete the werewolf transformation. Years of vacancy and a haunted reputation have kept the house at arm's length, and visitors don't enter it, at best, just over the fence. This makes the long-abandoned Shrieking Shack an excellent hiding place.

At least Sirius didn't have to worry about being accidentally seen while taking a nap one day.

Of course, being off the beaten track isn't the screaming shack's greatest strength. Sirius chose to settle here because the house connects Hogwarts and Hogsmeade. Sirius could center around the Shrieking Shack, looking for opportunities to get close to Peter while getting supplies from Hogsmeade. It is really perfect to encounter dementors and search and sneak into Hogwarts.

Moreover, no matter how shabby the Screaming Shack was, it was still a house, and living in a house was much more comfortable than sleeping in the wild. Recently, the temperature has dropped sharply, and Sirius also retreated into the Screaming Shack, sleeping idly in the room, thinking about how to torture Peter Pettigrew.

But today seemed a little different, blood was pouring out of the window again, and there was some noise at the same time. Sirius saw a couple of young lovers outside the house through the cracks in the wooden boards that blocked the windows, and seemed to want to go into the screaming shack for some excitement.

Sirius didn't care about that. He felt that these two people should not have the courage to enter the house to explore. But what happened next was a bit unexpected.

Several boys clashed with them.

From the dress and tone of the man in the territory, Sirius smelled a familiar smell.

"This golden retriever **** always has the stench of the Malfoy family." Draco Malfoy's behavior and appearance reminded Black of many old things.

Then came the conflict and its aftermath, and Harry's sudden appearance.

The moment he saw Harry, Sirius felt his heart being pinched, and he was so excited that he couldn't breathe for a moment, as if the blood all over his body had poured into his brain. It wasn't the first time he'd seen Harry, but the excitement was the same as the first time he'd seen him.

The first time Sirius escaped from Azkaban, he went to Privet Drive in Surrey, just to get a glimpse of Harry from a distance.

His goal was achieved, but there was a little accident...

After seeing Harry, Sirius was so excited that he couldn't control himself. He didn't control the distance all of a sudden, and ran too close, but Harry saw him and seemed to startle him. This made Sirius rein in some of his behavior.

After leaving Privet Drive, Harry went to Diagon Alley, and Sirius went to Hogwarts one step ahead of Harry.

But after he heard that Harry was the Seeker of the Gryffindor team, he couldn't hold back his thoughts, and ran to the Quidditch pitch at Hogwarts to watch a Quidditch game Harry participated in. Odd game. Although it was raining heavily, Sirius could still see that Harry was flying very well, just like his father, which made Sirius very relieved. Looking at Harry's flying figure, he once saw James' shadow.

As for what troubles Harry had caused by his appearance several times, Sirius didn't know. Sirius never imagined that he just wanted to see his godson a few times, and he left such a huge psychological shadow on Harry.

Looking at Harry, Sirius gradually spoiled his eyes. However, he looked at it and found that something was wrong with the atmosphere below.

Sirius ran out of the house in a hurry, and Harry saw him within a few seconds of going out.

Out of the corner of his eye Harry saw a dark shape. He turned his head, only to see a big, shaggy dog ​​staring straight at him.

He felt chills for a moment. But he quickly realized that this seemed like a good opportunity! A good opportunity to solve "ominous" in one fell swoop! Tom is here, Hermione is here. Harry felt that among the students at Hogwarts, the two of them were the most reliable students of their class.

With them here, maybe we can try to find out the ominous truth? See what it really is.

So he threw down his invisibility cloak, and ran to the edge of the barbed wire in three steps at a time. With a sudden jump, the barbed wire cut his palm, but he didn't notice it, and rushed towards the direction where the big dog disappeared. past.

Tom was trying to follow when he saw a yellow shadow in the snow. He bent down and picked it up, and it turned out to be a plain piece of parchment, as he had imagined.

Tom put the parchment in his pocket, and he also took the invisibility cloak with him.

"Hurry up!" Hermione had already run to the edge of the fence and took out her wand: "Torn apart!"

The barbed wire snapped, creating a wide opening through which she and Tom slipped.

From the perspective of Sirius, things are a little weird: after his dear godson Harry saw him, he ran over excitedly. It's just a pity that his expression was a little ferocious, not like the godfather and son should look when they reunite.

Sirius didn't react for a while, but he was already frightened by being wanted by the Ministry of Magic for a long time, and he reacted instinctively: run away. So he turned back into the Shrieking Shack.

All entrances outside the Shrieking Shack are sealed. There was only a small gap left, just big enough for Sirius to squeeze in.

Not long after he got in, there was a loud bang behind him. A gap was blasted in the wall, and the three of Tom got in.

Sirius cursed secretly in his heart, and continued to run away. He was not afraid of those little wizards, but worried that he might accidentally hurt Harry.

"Accidental injury" is only the superficial reason. Sirius still has a reason hidden in his heart, which he dare not face directly, and that is guilt.

Yes, guilt.

He had always felt guilty about Harry. He always felt that it was his own mistake that caused little Harry to lose his parents. If I hadn't been smart enough to change the secret keeper, maybe James and his wife wouldn't have been betrayed by traitors, and they wouldn't have died...

This emotion has been buried in the bottom of Sirius' heart and has never been expressed. This also kept him from showing up to meet Harry.

Sirius leaped over the stairs vigorously, rushed to the secret passage, and burrowed in.

"It's safe." This was the first thought that came to his mind. At the end of the secret path was the Whomping Willow, which was strong enough to stop the three little wizards. It's just a pity that this house can't be lived in. Where should I go on such a cold day?

"Are you a wizard or not!" Hermione pulled Harry away from the edge of the gap, and tore apart the board, breaking the board, revealing the room inside.

The three rushed into the house, and what they saw was a messy, gray living room. The wallpaper in the living room was peeling, the floor was thick with stains and the remains of furniture, and there was little light in the room—the windows were boarded up, with only a few gleams of light peeking through the cracks in the boards.

And the big dog has disappeared. There were only three people panting in the room.

"Look here!" Hermione said, pointing to a series of footprints on the ground, "Traces of a dog's paw, it went here."

The three followed the dog's footprints and finally saw a tunnel entrance. Harry couldn't wait any longer, he took the lead, jumped in, ran down a steep slope, turned a corner, ran a few steps, and saw an exit that looked like a tree hole.

But when he got out of the tree hole, he only felt that his face was hit hard, his eyes were blackened, and his nose was sore.

Harry rolled headlong from the tree hole.

"You're all right," Tom caught him just in time.

"It's okay..." Harry replied dazedly, feeling a rush of heat up his nose.

"You're bleeding!" Hermione screamed.

"I'm fine...caught 'ominous'..." Harry said as he lay weakly in Tom's arms.

"We need to take him to Madam Pomfrey," Hermione anxiously took out a handkerchief and tried to stop Harry's bleeding, but with little success.

"The bridge of his nose may be broken, and he may have a concussion." Hermione made a preliminary judgment.

"Okay." Tom took action immediately and ran towards the tree-hole-like exit.

"What are you going to do?" Hermione grabbed Tom, "do you want to be like him too?"

"Don't worry, we're under that Whomping Willow in the Forbidden Forest now." Tom threw Hermione away, ran to the edge of the tree hole, and rushed out.

As soon as he got out of the tree hole, he felt a gust of wind blowing, and he immediately transformed into a phoenix, avoiding a branch that fell from the sky. Then, while avoiding the attack of the branches, he scanned the situation beside the tree hole. Soon, a conspicuous knot appeared in his field of vision.

He swooped down, rushed to the knot, poked the knot with his bird's beak, and the violent Whomping Willow suddenly fell silent.

He returned to the hole and pulled Harry and Hermione out together.

Tom saw that Harry was not in a good condition, so he and Hermione helped Harry to the school hospital.

Madam Pomfrey at the school hospital is a very good doctor. She stopped Harry's nosebleed with just a flick of her wand, and gave him a tranquilizer at the same time. After Harry drank it, he fell into a deep sleep.

After staying for a while, Tom and Hermione left the school hospital, restoring tranquility here again. In the entire hospital ward, only Harry was sleeping soundly—as for Peggy, who had lived here for a long time before, she was transferred to St. Mungo's for further treatment. Many physicians asserted that the chances of the little girl waking up were slim to none.

It was very quiet in the ward. Suddenly, a window was pushed open. The **** dog came in through the window.

It stared at Harry with extremely complicated emotions in its eyes.

"Drowsy!" Suddenly, a voice came from behind it. With a twist of the limit, Sirius dodged this sudden curse.

Immediately afterwards, he felt his body sink, and a teenager took the opportunity to press on him.

"Sirius, grab it without your arms!" The words he shouted made Sirius break out in a cold sweat.

How did he know my name? How did he know I could turn into a black dog? Sirius was full of questions. It's just that now is not a good time to think. Sirius could feel a chill on the back of his neck, and he knew it was the wand against his neck.

He had no choice but to raise his hands and surrender.

"Return to human form." The voice spoke again.

Sirius was silent for a moment, disabling the Animagus Transformation.

The man on Sirius' back is naturally Tom. He just pretended to leave, but in fact he was hiding in the ward wearing an invisibility cloak, waiting for Sirius to take the bait.

Tom was sure that Sirius Black, who had accidentally injured his godson, would sneak into the ward to make sure Harry was all right. So he did such a thing of sitting on the sidelines.

Soon, a skeleton-like man appeared in front of Tom.

But before Tom watched him carefully, Tom felt a huge force coming from under his knees, knocking himself to the ground. Sirius stood up, threw Tom off his back, and then turned around, trying to subdue Tom, but what caught his eyes was a pair of yellow snake eyes.

Sirius froze and almost fell. This time, his movements froze, and Tom seized the opportunity.

"All petrification!" Tom's petrification spell hit Sirius precisely, and he fell to the ground with an incredulous expression on his face.

Tom, who subdued Sirius, breathed a sigh of relief~lightnovelpub.net~ Panting, he pulled a chair and sat on it.
