“Does this mean I can move out of the Dursleys? Harry thought about the days he would live with his godfather in the future,”I don’t know if he has his own house. If not, he can rent a house.”……”

Elvis didn’t have the heart to interrupt him. Even if Sirius was acquitted, Harry would probably continue to live at No. 4 Privet Drive.

There is a magical magic in Harry’s body. As long as he lives with blood relatives for a period of time every year until he reaches adulthood, that magic can ensure that he will not be harmed by Voldemort.

For the purpose of protecting Harry, Dumbledore would not let him move out.

The train finally stopped at Hogsmeade Station, and the little wizards returned to their study life.

Although the case of Peter Pettigrew has come to light, the Ministry of Magic is already preparing to reopen the trial.

However, due to various considerations, Fudge did not disclose the entire incident to the public immediately.

He only vaguely expressed in an interview with the Daily Prophet that a big event will happen in the near future, involving a senior official of the Ministry of Magic and a hero who has won the Order of Merlin.

However, he underestimated the capabilities of the paparazzi.

The Ministry of Magic is such a big place, and even all precautions cannot prevent certain people from spying on them.

《The Daily Prophet first published an article by Rita Skeeter: Is the hero Peter Pettigrew still alive?

She included a full-body uncensored high-definition photo of Peter Pettigrew in the article as evidence.

And made up a story that can catch people’s attention.

The story she made up was actually roughly the same as the truth, but she couldn’t believe what she made up.

After all, Peter was the real traitor and Blake was wrongly accused. How could this happen, unless the judge who tried the entire case had no brains.

As soon as this article was published, it triggered widespread discussion among the public.

Someone who did something good went to the monument built by the Ministry of Magic for Peter Pettigrew, only to find that it had been demolished long ago.

This is undoubtedly a kind of evidence. After all, no matter which country, if a hero’s monument is demolished by future generations, it is probably because he does not deserve the honor.

Fudge was keenly aware that now was a good time to make the whole thing public, so he held a press conference with great fanfare, disclosed the truth, and bluntly stated that the case would be reopened by the Wizengamot at the end of January..

He also lied about it and did not reveal which little wizard discovered and captured Peter Pettigrew.

……

In the North Sea, a triangular fortress stands on an isolated island far away from the world.

The fortress is made of black rocks and looks eerie, like a place haunted by ghosts.

There is

Azkaban, the wizarding prison.

Azkaban does not have Aurors to guard it, but instead has a dark creature: a dementor.

Dementors feed on people’s positive emotions and can suck out people’s souls completely, turning them into empty shells. This dark creature is known in the wizarding world as a”soulless demon.”

Prisoners in Azkaban had their emotions sucked away by dementors every day. Some went crazy not long after being im

prisoned, and some died painfully in despair.

In the heavy rain, a black carriage pierced the sky, swaying in the strong wind and flying towards Azkaban.

Thick gray clouds hung low over the sea, and the sky was as dark as night.

The Thestral broke through the clouds, slowly descended with the carriage, and landed on the platform outside Azkaban.

A group of wizards got off the carriage. They walked along the road paved with black rocks and walked all the way to the outside of a single cell.

“”Sirius Black,” one of the wizards said, he was Scrimgeour, the head of the Auror Office.

In the cell, Sirius Black sat slumped on the dirty, damp ground, leaning against the moss-covered wall and looking out the window , motionless, like a corpse.

Sirius only had a few layers of rags on his body, and his hair and beard were very messy.

Even though he had been in Azkaban for ten years, his eyes still did not fade. And Unlike the other prisoners, Sirius had not uttered a single scream or cry in such a long time.

“Isn’t he already crazy?”A wizard with short hair behind Scrimgeour frowned.

Indeed, no one can live a normal life under the influence of dementors, not to mention that Sirius has been imprisoned in Azkaban for ten years.

Bellatrix Lestrange in the cell next to him is an example. When the Aurors just passed by, Bella was still shouting that Voldemort was not dead and that he would return.

Everyone was worried about her. Laughing at the crazy talk, the mysterious man has long been defeated by Harry Potter. This is a fact recognized by the wizarding world. Otherwise, why has he not appeared even after ten years?

“Delis, open the door,” Scrimgeour ordered to the short-haired wizard.

“Yes,” Delis took out a set of keys from his robes. He hurriedly found the one corresponding to Sirius’ cell, then inserted the key into the dusty keyhole and opened the cell door. Scrimgeour left Entering the cell, standing in front of Sirius, he said solemnly:”Black, your case has taken a turn for the better. We need to take you to the Ministry of Magic to wait for the Wizengamot trial to resume.”

Sirius still looked motionless at the dark sky outside.

“Did you know that Peter Pettigrew is still alive?”

Sirius turned his head and stared at Scrimgeour fiercely. That fierce expression made the director of the Auror Office, who had seen many ferocious dark wizards, feel a little numb.

“When a young wizard discovers that Peter is still alive and captures him, Peter pulls the strings. continued Scrimgeour

“Pettigrew… Peter… still alive?”Sirius spoke in a hoarse voice. Perhaps it was because he hadn’t spoken for so many years. His words were incoherent and unclear, like the roar of a wild beast.

Scrimgeour nodded and affirmed:”Yes, he is still alive. But he has been captured”

“Peter… James……”Sirius’ cloudy eyes gradually returned to clarity, and then he suddenly covered his heart and fell to the ground.

The Aurors were startled and were about to help Sirius up, but were stopped by Scrimgeour.

Sobs came from Sirius, who curled up into a ball and clutched his heart filled with sad memories with his hands. Hot tears fell from the corners of his eyes. He once thought that his tears had dried up.

Sirius just lay there, sobbing hoarsely.
