HP: I’m working on redemption at Hogwarts

Chapter 59: Solving Peter Pettigrew



"Bang bang bang!"

Qiu Zhang carefully knocked on the door of Principal Dumbledore's office with unknown heavy emotions.

"Please come in!"

Professor Dumbledore's deep and kind voice came from the door, Qiu Zhang slowly opened the door and walked in.

This is a spacious and special curved room, full of interesting sounds made by all kinds of funny little hangings. On the wall of the office are portraits of the past principals of Hogwarts in various eras. The men and women inside are either kind or kind. Majestic, or as fun and naughty as Professor Dumbledore...

Professor Dumbledore was sitting in front of an eagle-claw-shaped desk in the middle of the office. There were various heavy paper materials and newspapers placed on the desk. In the corner of the desk, there were a row of various candy jar.

"Qiu Zhang, right? You are a well-known outstanding student in Ravenclaw!"

Professor Dumbledore said with a smile. Although his long white beard blocked his mouth tightly, his kindness and smile could still be seen from his soft and curved eyebrows.

"Thank you, Professor!"

Qiu Zhang held up the hem of his school robe and bowed down in return, bowing his head and smiling politely.

"You must have something important to say to me, right?"

Qiu Zhang nodded solemnly, his eyes firm. Then he slowly spoke to Professor Dumbledore about his discovery.

"Professor, I doubt Peter Pettigrew is still alive..."

As Qiu Zhang's words slowly came out of his mouth, Professor Dumbledore showed rare surprise and surprise on his face, but this surprise was not about being surprised to know the news, but more about telling Qiu Zhang the news. surprise.

Professor Dumbledore quickly put aside his surprised expression and maintained his signature kind smile. He opened the sugar bowl on the table and took out a few pieces of Lemon Snow candies and stuffed them into his mouth, feeling the sweet taste filling his mouth. It seemed that my mood had calmed down.

"Come here too, eat some Snow Baby Candies, and speak slowly, I will listen carefully!"

Professor Dumbledore handed the candy bowl in his hand to Qiu Zhang. Qiu Zhang hesitated and took out a piece, nodded his thanks and then put the candy into his mouth.

It's too greasy. It turns out that Professor Dumbledore likes such sweet and greasy things...

After eating the candy, Qiu Zhang drank another glass of water to get rid of the sweet taste in his mouth. Qiu Zhang smiled politely at Professor Dumbledore, and then took out the Marauder's Map from his pocket.

"Professor, first of all I have to confess to you, I went on a night walk last night!"

Professor Dumbledore raised his eyebrows unexpectedly and asked doubtfully, "Are you alone? I really didn't expect..."

"Yes, I'm alone!"

Qiu Zhang paused and acknowledged Professor Dumbledore's words.

[It’s better not to involve George and Fred...]

After admitting her mistake in advance, Qiu Zhang officially began her story.

"During the night trip last night, I discovered a magical mirror called the Mirror of Erised... Harry and Ron also came in the middle, so I hid... I didn't expect it... There should have been only the three of us at the time, but But I saw the fourth person’s name on the Marauder’s Map—Peter Peddie Road!”

"Peter..."

Principal Dumbledore pushed up his glasses, with a rare serious expression on his face, and whispered the name...

"Maybe you have something to suspect, right?"

Qiu Zhang nodded slightly and explained his conjecture to Professor Dumbledore.

"Because the only other living creature present at the time was the pet rat in Ron's hand, so..."

"So you suspect an Animagus form?"

After receiving a positive nod from Qiu Zhang, Professor Dumbledore suddenly understood and nodded, looking at Qiu Zhang with admiration.

"I see……"

"No, Professor. What I want to say is that I doubt that Peter is the hero and martyr that the newspapers say, otherwise he would not turn into a mouse and hide instead... I hope you can maybe think about this issue... "

Qiu Zhang had been accumulating energy for a long time, and finally plucked up the courage to speak out his speculation. He didn't know whether Professor Dumbledore would consider his guess or treat all his words as a joke, but Qiu Zhang had to try...

Professor Dumbledore saw Qiu Zhang holding the hems of his clothes tightly with both hands and closing his eyes as if it was such a big risk to say these words. He just smiled kindly at Qiu Zhang and spoke in a gentle voice.

"Classmate Qiuzhang, thank you for informing me. I will definitely consider this issue seriously!"

Qiu Zhang just bowed deeply, thanked him seriously, and then turned around and left.

……

After that, Qiu Zhang continued to study, live normally, and spend his magical daily life at Hogwarts...

Even once he met the trio of Harry, Ron and Hermione, Qiu Zhang carefully discovered that the mouse that had been tightly held in Ron's arms had disappeared...

Qiu Zhang just raised his eyebrows slightly, smiled imperceptibly, greeted the three of them politely and tenderly, and left.

"Do you think it was possible that Senior Qiuchang started the Quidditch match?"

Not sure if it was a woman's sixth sense, Hermione stared closely at Qiu Zhang's retreating figure and spoke slowly, not sure whether she was talking to herself or asking the other two.

"Her? How is that possible! Hey, remember what I said, she must be Harry's biggest fan, Senior Qiu Zhang? I believe Harry is her biggest fan!"

Ron shook his head and retorted without waiting for Hermione to analyze, and then turned sideways to motion Hermione to look at Harry.

Harry stared blankly at Qiu Zhang's back as he walked further and further away, unable to regain his consciousness for a long time. It seemed that he didn't even hear what Hermione and Ron were saying.

"Okay, you have a point!"

Hermione shook her head helplessly and sighed, admitting Ron's statement. Seeing that Harry was still standing there without any sign of moving, I couldn't help but let out a long sigh, grabbed Harry and Ron's ears and dragged them to class!

"Well, it's not like I didn't see why you were pulling my ears..."

Ron couldn't help but complain as he followed Hermione's movements, accompanied by Harry who blushed with embarrassment and didn't dare to refute.

……

The next time I heard about Harry Potter, it was already at the end of the semester. The news that the famous Harry Potter was seriously injured and in a coma in the hospital wing spread almost throughout Hogwarts...

Cho Chang also went to the hospital wing to give gifts to Harry when he was in coma, but when he saw the various gifts piled high around Harry's bed, he couldn't help but be impressed by the popularity of Harry Potter. …

……

At the end-of-semester dinner, the auditorium was shrouded in deep and bright green. It was obvious to everyone that this year’s Academy Cup winner was Slytherin...

but……

"There are several special circumstances this year that have not been taken into account..."

With Professor Dumbledore's series of analyses, Gryffindor gained another hundred points, surpassing Slytherin and becoming the winner of this year's Academy Cup!

Professor Dumbledore waved his hand, and all the decorations in the auditorium suddenly turned into the fiery red Gryffindor logo!

Qiu Zhang also applauded Gryffindor excitedly, with a smile almost piling up on his cheeks. Looking over, he happened to catch Wood's equally excited eyes.

Wood and Qiu Zhang looked at each other and seemed to suddenly remember something. They nodded in realization and gave Qiu Zhang a big thumbs up in affirmation...

Qiu Zhang knew that Wood was now afraid that he would be convinced by his ability to predict and tell fortunes and believe in the magical power from the East...

Hahaha……

------Dividing line------

……summer vacation……

One day while having breakfast quietly, my father suddenly let out an exclamation, quickly put down the fork in his hand, and carefully read the contents of the prophet newspaper in his hand, as if something serious had happened.

The mother frowned and seriously criticized the father's behavior.

"Kevin Zhang, do you know what a bad example this will set for your children! Put down the newspaper and have a good meal..."

Before her mother finished speaking, her father pulled her over and handed her the contents of the newspaper. Her mother couldn't help but exclaimed, which made Qiu Zhang very curious about the contents of the newspaper...

"Is this true? Oh my god, we still regard him as a hero, and he is not dead. He is still that person's lackey..."

"Isn't it? I don't know how the Ministry of Magic found out..."

The father and mother just looked at others and complained and sighed while holding the newspaper, which made Qiu Zhang not in the mood to eat...

After waiting for a long time, his father was no longer reading the newspaper. Qiu Zhang carefully took out the prophet newspaper from his father's study and read it carefully.

""Shocked! Peter Pedro, the martyr everyone admires, turned out to be a Death Eater"

The title clearly recorded such an appalling title. Qiu Zhang looked at the picture above of Peter Pettigrew being captured in Azkaban in embarrassment and cowering. Peter Pettigrew did not even dare to face the camera and just kept his head down. Holding his head and following the Auror who suppressed him, he walked into the prison...

Putting away the newspaper, Qiu Zhang nodded with satisfaction, and the big stone of worry and fear in his heart finally fell...
