Chapter 210 IX Sirius Absolutely Cannot Escape From Prison

After learning of Pettigrew Peter's Animagus form, the biggest mystery of the whole affair is finally solved.

When he was cornered by Sirius, he detonated the whole street with his wand, cut off one of his fingers, and threw it among the wreckage of the explosion site; and he himself was transformed into an Animagus He became a mouse, escaped through the blown sewer, and blamed Sirius for all the crimes.

Harry was sure that Pettigrew would be able to do this, since skilled Animagus transformations did not require the aid of a wand, and Pettigrew had fully mastered transformations at school.

"Granger...I must admit, that's pretty good reasoning."

Barty Crouch looked in amazement at Harry who was interpreting the whole case in a calm manner. He really didn't expect that a 13-year-old kid could restore the case at that time as if he was there. General environment.

While some of this is indeed speculative, Crouch has to admit that Harry's reasoning makes perfect sense.

However, he still has the most fundamental suspicion: "Granger, everything you reasoned requires an important premise, that is, Sirius Black must be innocent! And this is obviously difficult to prove now. "

"But we can change the original conviction to suspicion, Mr. Crouch." Harry retorted immediately, "On the night of the incident in 1981, my godfather also went to Godric's Hollow, and Outside the ruins of my house, I saw the Hogwarts gamekeeper Rubeus Hagrid who was also ordered to come...I heard that this incident is one of the main evidences for Sirius' crime?"

"That's right." Dumbledore, who hadn't spoken much, interjected, "After I heard about the tragedy, I sent Hagrid to the Potter's house for rescue. Harry was just over one year old, and at the same time, he met Sirius, who generously gave Hagrid his flying motorcycle to help Hagrid quickly bring Harry to the Dursleys' house."

"Mr. Crouch, this is the problem." Harry continued to analyze, "Let's imagine a criminal who can brutally kill thirteen people, how cruel and perverse his actions should be? Godric's Hollow was not at that time The other wizards were present, and Hagrid, a half-blood giant, had been expelled from Hogwarts as early as the third year, and he didn't even have a wand. May I ask why Sirius didn't send me and Hagrid under the circumstances? Let's kill him together, but leave a witness to ask for trouble?!"

"This..." After this debate, Barty Crouch was speechless.

As the former director of the Law Enforcement Department, although Barty Crouch is tough and even self-willed, he is more professional than the lay members of the Wizengamot when it comes to issues such as criminal investigation and case investigation. .

Hearing what Harry said, he also realized that if he started from Sirius' own character and ability, he would have no reason to make completely different choices in the face of two similar situations.

When he met Pettigrew Peter, he could brutally kill him and a group of Muggles, so why did he let Hagrid and the baby Harry go at the scene of the crime the night before?

Of course Barty Crouch didn't know that Hagrid was actually hiding his wand, so in his opinion, Pettigrew is definitely much harder to kill than Hagrid, so Sirius' choice to let Hagrid go is indeed inconsistent up.

"Okay...Mr. Granger, you've really convinced me." Crouch bowed his head to Harry's approval, "I admit that I was too impatient before, and I threw Sirius into Ah without trial. Zikaban, he's really just a suspect. Besides... Albus did have a good student, and you have a sharp mind that is unique among teenagers."

"Thank you for the compliment." Harry responded politely. He was actually rather disapproving of Crouch's appreciation.

Is this level of reasoning unique?

Don't be kidding~

If this was put into Harry's previous life, he could easily make this level of reasoning after seeing some old houses like Kindaichi and Conan.

In the final analysis, it’s not because high-level wizards are a group of emotional neuropathy. The Wizengamot gang only knows how to vote with a show of hands. They understand the logical reasoning and criminal psychology of a hammer~

"So, the most important thing to do now is to find Pettigrew Peter, who is on the run." After sorting out all the clues, Harry concluded the case, "What we are looking for is a 33-year-old Up and down, a man missing a finger, of course... it could also be a mouse with a disability."

"Peter Pettigrew...that's right! We must definitely find that bastard, I will personally kill him for Potter and Lily!!"

Hearing the name of his enemy again, and knowing from Harry that the other party is probably still alive, Sirius finally couldn't hold back his emotions, and roared excitedly in the prison.

"Uh... Mr. Crouch, I would like to ask, does the Ministry of Magic have a conditional bail system similar to that in the world of ordinary people for suspects imprisoned in Azkaban?" Seeing Sirius like this, Harry was a little confused asked Crouch a strange question.

"Conditional bail...what's that?" Barty Crouch was completely at a loss for the terms Harry said.

However, he still gave the answer Harry needed: "All the prisoners in Azkaban will not be released in any way unless they have committed crimes or are proven innocent...even if sometimes, we I know he's innocent."

To be honest, this answer made Harry want to curse.

"Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask." Harry rolled his eyes helplessly, choosing to skip this topic.

Damn, the Ministry of Magic doesn't even have a bail system, and it's still doing 'I know I was wrong, but you don't have proof, so I can't change'?

This is simply a proper debt, okay~

England's conditional bail system, as early as 1976, had already established the guiding ideology of "allowing bail is the principle, and detention is the exception". I didn't expect that in the wizarding world 20 years later, Azkaban would still be a one-shot deal. .

"Harry, are you worried that Sirius will escape?"

As soon as Dumbledore said this, Crouch and Sirius couldn't help but fell into shock at the same time, while a wry smile appeared on Harry's face.

"Yeah... As you can see, my godfather is too emotional, and I am worried that he will do something impulsive and stupid." Harry was speaking to Dumbledore, but his eyes kept looking at him. Sirius' face, "I know he is innocent, so of course I don't want him to stay here, but I also don't want him to choose to escape from prison for any reason, because that will make his situation even more dangerous! In short, please Don't act impulsively for my sake, because that would make me worry too...and feel guilty!"

"Harry..." Sirius' voice was hoarse and choked. As a godson, Harry really felt all the care and respect for him.

And he found that Harry's mind was indeed quite shrewd, and he could guess that he had plans to escape from prison.

If he could, he really wanted to hug the child in front of him, but these damn fences locked him here!

"On this point, within my ability, I can offer some help."

At this time, Barty Crouch suddenly spoke...

(ps It’s okay to say it bluntly, Sirius must come out of Azkaban openly, the protagonist will not let him escape from prison)

Chapter 220 The selected prison doctor was originally going to be a professor

Harry and Dumbledore concluded their visit later that day and left Azkaban together.

It was a pity that Harry was not able to get Sirius out of prison directly during this trip, but this was already the best result so far.

And Barty Crouch finally promised Harry that he would hand over the sound evidence Harry recorded in front of him to the Wizengamot, and while admitting his misjudgment, he applied to change a cell for Sirius .

One thing to say, Harry still approves of his responsibility to correct his mistakes. After all, because his son Barty Crouch Jr. is a senior Death Eater, his official career in the Ministry of Magic has been seriously damaged. .

Once the misjudgment of Sirius' matter is completely qualitative, Barty Crouch is estimated to be even more marginalized, and his official career may really come to an end by then.

But Harry recognized it, but he didn't have any sympathy for him, after all, he made a mistake first.

Speaking of prisons, Azkaban's prisons are of course graded. After all, not all wizards will be sentenced to life imprisonment.

For example, some light criminals who abuse magic, burglary or small-scale smuggling, their prison environment will be much better, and the dementors will not torture them often.

But even so, Harry was still very worried.

After dealing with the group of greedy dementors, Harry didn't have the slightest trust in them, and he was sure that what happened in the prison before had made these dementors hold a grudge.

So, after they left, they might torture Sirius for no reason.

Fortunately, Dumbledore helped solve the problem.

"After that, I will ask Mr. Crouch to help with the operation and arrange for a prison doctor to stay in Sirius' prison. While helping him recuperate his body, he will also take care of his diet and daily life."

"Resident prison doctor?" Dumbledore's words made Harry very puzzled.

Because as far as he knew, there was no permanent prison doctor in Azkaban.

Criminals who have been sentenced to life imprisonment will never receive treatment. If they die of illness, the dementors will dig a hole and bury them in the back of the prison.

As for Gilderoy Lockhart who was imprisoned before, the Ministry of Magic regularly went to St. Mungo's to find some doctors to treat the sick prisoners who had been sentenced for a short time and fell ill.

Harry had also heard that the last thing St. Mungo's therapists wanted to do was go to Azkaban and treat prisoners.

So... how could Dumbledore find a prison doctor willing to stay in Azkaban?

And this prison doctor wants to personally protect Sirius, so at least he must master the Patronus Charm...Which powerful wizard is willing to surrender his status to do such a thing? !

"It is true that the treatment of these criminals in Azkaban has always been a difficult problem for the Ministry of Magic. Even if they relax the conditions to the extent that they only need to know a little medical magic, no one is willing to apply for the job." Dumbledore He said softly, "But it cannot be denied that there are indeed some wizards in this world. For some regrettable reasons, they have to engage in jobs that are much lower than their abilities. What's more, if the person to be protected is Sirius, some People should be happy to take the job."

"Some people..." Dumbledore's words made Harry think a little more.

Could it be...Dumbledore thought of the candidate for prison doctor who was once a friend of his father?

"It's just that, if Sirius' charges are not cleared as soon as possible, I may have to recruit a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts." Dumbledore shrugged helplessly, "And It's very likely that you can't find it, and maybe you will have to let Severus and you students continue to substitute for the class~"

"The prison doctor you selected will be the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts next year?" Hearing what Dumbledore said, Harry couldn't help but become more curious.

"Anyway, the burden on your shoulders is heavy again, Harry." But Dumbledore didn't say anything, he just patted Harry on the shoulder before parting, "I want to find you who have been hiding for 12 years. Pettigrew Peter, it's not an easy job."

"Mr. Principal, I heard that Pettigrew's fingers were sent to his mother in the end?" Upon seeing this, Harry no longer struggled with the identity of the prison doctor, and instead proposed a question about the identity of the prison doctor when Barty Crouch was present. Inconvenient question to ask.

"Harry, do you remember what Sirius said before...Peter Pettigrew moved out of his original residence because of a guilty conscience. That was the only time he moved other than coming to Hogwarts to study. In addition..." Dumbledore said deeply After staring at Harry for a long time, he finally said slowly, "Be careful."

After speaking, he left the place with the aid of apparition.

And Harry was absolutely sure that Dumbledore had already guessed what he was thinking!

He was telling himself just now that Pettigrew's mother should have been living in the original house, and his severed finger was probably kept there.

Barty Crouch has never mentioned the severed finger, which shows that the Ministry of Magic may not mind investigating Pettigrew, but it will also not provide more information to itself.

Therefore, Harry had no choice but to check the address of Pettigrew's old house by himself, and he had indeed figured out a way to investigate, that was to check Pettigrew's birth record in the access book.

If he can find Pettigrew's finger, then many things can be operated.

...

After returning home, Harry and Hermione briefly introduced Sirius' situation. After learning that Harry's godfather was indeed innocent, the schoolgirl was naturally very happy for her stinky brother.

Of course, Harry also emphasized to Hermione again that even if Sirius was acquitted in the end, he would never leave Granger's house... and repeatedly emphasized in a way that his parents could not see~

In short, with the matter of Sirius coming to an end, Harry and Hermione's Easter holiday has officially come to an end.

For them, and for all students, the final term of the year has begun on a sunny note.

There are no secret rooms on campus, and there are also no monsters that threaten life and safety...Of course there must be monsters, and there are a lot of them, but they are really safe~

And so far, the only haze that still hangs over the school is probably the final exam that has not been cancelled.

But that is only eight weeks later, and it will not affect the current mood of the students.

So, in a peaceful campus, Argus Filch, the administrator of Hogwarts, 'happily' raised his broom at someone.

"You nasty little bastard, you actually made Mrs. Norris' belly bigger? See if I don't break your five legs!!"

On the first afternoon after the start of the final semester, all the students in the auditorium heard Mr. Filch's very kind greetings~

Chapter 220 The strategy for the Forbidden Forest finally begins

In other words, Filch felt like his lungs were going to explode right now.

Harry quietly abducted Mrs. Norris before the Easter holiday, which made him quite dissatisfied, but when he came back from school, he actually brought back a 'pig' for himself!

Mrs. Norris's body is more than two circles fatter than before, and Hermione's ugly cat named Crookshanks is always getting together with it. If Filch doesn't Knowing what happened, he should really go to St. Mungo's to see his brain.

So in fact, it was Crookshanks who Filch was cursing and chasing after, and Harry just happened to be holding Crookshanks to escape, so he became the fish in the pond.

Hmm...'Harry Granger made Mrs. Norris' belly bigger, and Filch threatened to break his five legs', this rumor spread across the circle of friends of the students as soon as the school started.

This means that there is no school newspaper in Hogwarts, otherwise Harry would be on the headlines right now~

"I said Mr. Filch, we hit and scolded you, you should calm down now." In the janitor's hut, Harry tried his best to persuade the livid-faced Filch, "things It has already happened, I think we should all look forward... Think about it, maybe Mrs. Norris will give birth to many beautiful Miss Norris~"

"Hmph, it's not your cat who suffers emotionally!" Filch turned his head to the side angrily, but just happened to see Crookshanks who was showing gallantry on the ground, and immediately closed his eyes angrily, "Besides, you see Looking at it like that, what kind of good things can it produce?!"

"Hey, you're wrong." Harry quickly retorted when he heard the words, "We Crookshanks really don't look good on camera, but we are smart anyway. And it's a cross between a cat lizi and a Persian cat, Lori Mrs. Si is a cross between a cat lizi and a Maine coon cat, in terms of bloodlines, they are a well-matched family and a strong alliance~"

To be honest, although Harry has been speaking for Crookshanks, he is actually as worried as Filch.

It’s okay if the future cub is born more like its mother, but if it inherits Crookshanks’ big pancake face and bowed legs, then the supposedly cute little milk cat will have no eyes~

"Stop talking nonsense with me here." Filch rolled his eyes at Harry and Mrs. Norris in disgust at the same time, but the anger on his face did begin to fade.

He probably figured it out too, knowing that he can only accept the fact that Mrs. Norris is already 'happy to be a mother'.

In the next few days, Filch acted like the grandfather of every child who doesn't care what he said. While complaining about the two of Ha He and the two cats, he didn't care about Mrs. Norris at the same time. Plus, not only did he personally deliver food and water every day, but he also caught Crookshanks to replace the night watchman, for fear that his cat would bump into it a little bit.

He even begged for nothing and entrusted Professor Kyle Bertten to help him get the basic books on raising cats, raccoons and domestic cats, and looked up various materials on it every day. It can be said that he directly regarded Mrs. Norris as pregnant. My daughter-in-law confessed.

Thanks to his assistance, Harry finally didn't have to worry about preparing for exams, attending classes, taking care of cats, and all kinds of busyness before.

Coincidentally, the time for another big event has also arrived.

After the Easter holidays, the weather charms in Harry's suitcase had completely expired, and the magical animals in the box no longer had the most suitable living environment.

And in the future, their habitat will no longer be a suitcase, but...

Hogwarts Forbidden Forest!

...

One night after school started, when Filch and Mrs. Norris, who shared the same room, were already asleep, Harry's suitcase was brightly lit.

All the magical creatures that lived in suitcases gathered in front of the studio door.

Bowtruckles, Moon Crazy Beasts, Horned Camels, Birds and Snakes, and even the dangerous Winged Demon and Poison Leopard, all held their breaths at this moment, quietly waiting for Harry's decision.

"Now that the weather spell has disappeared, I plan to let you enter the Forbidden Forest in batches from tonight... Of course, I have to say something in advance. The Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts is dangerous, especially the centaurs. There will definitely be a violent conflict with them!"
