Looking at Minister Fudge who kept playing riddles, Mrs. Rostamer was also a little helpless. She felt that she might not be able to get anything out of it from Fudge.

"It is said that the minister of the Japanese Ministry of Magic is going to be replaced," Fudge suddenly remembered something, and started talking again with great interest, "I can't remember clearly, they don't seem to be called the Minister of Magic, what is it called? "

"Shogun?" Professor Flitwick prompted from the side.

"That's right!" Fudge knocked on the table, "The [General] who has been in power for nearly seventy years has stepped over the stage! His replacement seems to be a girl with a wand on a knife handle."

"What?" The audience around Fudge was a little surprised. Seeing their surprised looks, Fudge was very proud. "This is the latest news from the Ministry of Magic. It will probably take some time until the handover is completed in Japan."

"Didn't it mean that only the strongest wizard in the Japanese magic world can be called [General]? How could there be such a powerful wizard suddenly?"

"Get old," Fudge snorted unceremoniously, "If you want to win the title of [General] by challenging the current general, you need to pass the triple test of [wisdom], [bravery] and [strength] practiced by the three subordinates of the shogunate. The trial is very difficult, so no one has challenged that old general for a long time. Who knows how strong he is? He is not much younger than Dumbledore!"

When the topic came to Dumbledore, Fudge found that all the people around him were silent and drinking in silence. Hagrid, who was silent just now, snorted even more dissatisfied, and a few drops of wine splashed out from his nostrils and dripped on the bar table.

Seeing that the atmosphere became stiff all of a sudden, Ms. Rosmerta could only come out to smooth things over, "Speaking of Sirius, do you know that among all the people who defected to the dark forces, Sirius Black is the most unexpected to me... "

Hearing what she said, everyone sighed. Harry under the table stretched out his ears, waiting to hear the news about Sirius.

Following the narration of several people, explosive news poured into Harry's brain one after another:

Sirius knew his parents and was their best friend!

He betrayed his parents and caused them to die tragically in the hands of Voldemort. He also killed his father's friend Peter when he was at the end of his rope!

Sirius is still his own godfather! !

The wine glass in Harry's hand fell to the ground with a loud sound, but no one paid attention.

"Black is acting pretty normal in Azkaban, the dementors seem to have little effect on him - it's incredible, I'm really worried... Knowing that You-Know-Who is a situation in isolation, But if he is allowed to find his most loyal servant back, he will definitely make a quick comeback! Fortunately, Black is now..." Fudge's words were cut off.

But everyone understood what he meant: Fortunately, Sirius lost his mind and wanted to catch Harry wholeheartedly and avenge his master. Perhaps, capturing him at Hogwarts is the best way to deal with it.

Everyone was silent. Finally, with the clink of glass hitting wood, several people drank the wine in their glasses.

"Connelly, we should go back to school too. I remember you came to send Professor Trelawney an invitation to the World Divination Conference?"

Fudge hummed, and then there were a few creaks of pushing away chairs and a burst of footsteps, Fudge and the others left the Three Broomsticks bar.

Tom and Hermione poked their heads under the table, and Harry's cloak had slipped off, but he didn't realize it.

Seeing Harry's distraught appearance, Tom and Hermione didn't know how to comfort him. He could only stuff the butter beer in his hand to Harry, and watched him drink the beer in the glass one by one.

After drinking several cups, Harry staggered to his feet and walked straight to the door. He seemed to care about nothing, even the invisibility cloak was put on him by Tom.

"Harry—" Tom wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know where to start: the things in Harry's family really couldn't be explained in a short while. Maybe he can only let his elders solve it.

"I know, leave me alone." Harry shook his head and ignored Tom. He walked in a daze like this, returned to Honeyduke's cellar, and then returned to the castle through the tunnel.

There is only one question left in his mind: why has no one ever mentioned that his parents died because of the betrayal of his best friend?

"Tom—" After returning to the castle, Harry took off his invisibility cloak and staggered towards the Gryffindor tower. Hermione looked at Harry's back, a little worried.

"Should we do something?"

"But what can we do?" Tom asked rhetorically.

"Then can you tell me why you let Sirius go?"

"Of course, I let him go because he was innocent." Looking at Hermione's eyes, Tom felt that she seemed to think he was crazy. So Tom sighed, and began to tell Hermione the stories that happened in the previous generation...

…

The principal's office welcomed two unexpected guests.

"Remus, I'm really surprised that you brought Sirius to see me." Dumbledore sat on the chair behind the desk and looked at Lupine.

Lupine only felt that he was being seen through by the blue eyes behind the half-moon glasses. Fortunately, he is very open today, with a clear conscience.

"Yes, Professor, I brought Sirius Black here, I think you should meet him. He brought some interesting remarks." Lupine calmly pushed Sirius to Dumbledore.

Looking at the old man in front of him, Sirius showed a shy emotion for the first time.

"Professor Dumbledore, we meet again."

"You have changed a lot~lightnovelpub.net~ Dumbledore said with a smile, as if standing in front of him was not a wanted criminal from the Ministry of Magic, but an outstanding graduate who visited his alma mater after graduation.

"Azkaban makes people old." After Sirius sighed, he spread the Marauder's Map in front of Dumbledore and activated it.

Looking at the magical map in front of him, Dumbledore blinked mischievously, "It's no coincidence that you were rarely caught by the gatekeepers during your school days—with this map alone, your N.E.W.T. The grades in the class should be excellent. I don't know if this map can be with me-"

"No!" Sirius and Lupine rejected Dumbledore in unison.

Dumbledore did not continue to entangle, all his attention was attracted by a small black dot named "Peter Petru" on the Marauder's Map.
