For the first time, Harry knew that Blake was his father's best friend. 【Love ↑ Go △ Small ↓ Say △ Net





Before that, neither Dumbledore, Hagrid, Mr. Weasley, Cornelius, nor anyone else had told him that his parents had been betrayed by their best friend, and that it was Blake who had betrayed his parents to Lord Voldemort!

Harry felt strangely angry. His parents would probably never believe that it was their best friend who betrayed them until the day they died.

He tried hard to imagine how he would feel. If one of Elwyn, Ron, or Hermione betrayed him to the Lord Voldemort, he would be devastated.

His heart was broken. Did his father feel the same way before he died?

For the whole afternoon, Harry stayed in the empty bedroom in a daze. He found the photo album that Hagrid had given him two years ago. It was filled with his parents' magical photos. He sat down on the bed, drew the drapes around the bed, and began to turn the album page by page until,

He paused on the photograph of his parents on their wedding day, his father waving to him, smiling, his tousled black hair sticking out in all directions from Harry. There was the mother, too, radiant with happiness, standing arm in arm with his father, and the other man.

That must be him, their best man. Harry had never thought of him before.

If he did not know that it was the same person, he would never have guessed that the person in the old photo was Blake. His face was not sunken and sallow, but it was handsome and smiling.

Harry couldn't help but wonder if he was already serving the Lord Voldemort when he took this picture. Was he already planning to kill the two people around him? Did he know that he would have to face twelve years of Azkaban, twelve years that would make him unrecognizable?

But the Dementors did not affect him. Harry tried to remember the handsome smiling face in the photo.

Then, he flipped the album to the back and saw a photo of his father's graduation. It was a group photo of four people.

In addition to his father, Professor Lupin in his student days, and Blake, who was still smiling, there was also a short, fat, and very cowardly boy hiding behind the three of them. He looked a bit like Neville Longbottom.

He should be Peter the Dwarf, the wizard who was killed by Blake.

Professor Lupin told him that after his father's death, only Peter the Dwarf searched everywhere for Blake. He wanted to avenge his parents, but he was no match for Blake. He paid the price with his life. After killing his parents, Blake killed him.

"Filthy, stinking traitor!" Harry clenched his fists.

His whole body was flowing with a hatred that he had never known before. This hatred was like poison.

He saw Blake laughing at him through the darkness, as if someone had taken the photo from the album and stuck it in front of his eyes.

He looked as if someone was showing him a movie. Sirius Black was blowing Peter the Dwarf into pieces. He seemed to hear someone whispering excitedly, "It's done, Master! The Potter couple have asked me to be their secret keeper! " Then there was another person's voice. This person was laughing shrilly!

It was the voice he would hear in his head when the Dementors approached. The laughter of Lord Voldemort!

Harry knew what he wanted to do. He wanted to find Sirius Black. He wanted revenge for his parents and Peter the Dwarf.

Even though Professor Lupin had repeatedly warned him not to look for Blake, he had promised him.

But when he thought about how Blake was still at large while he sat here doing nothing, he could not bear the thought.

Harry secretly made up his mind. At this moment, he suddenly heard a noise coming from the hall outside the hall. Not long after, people ran in with pale faces.

They were all students who had just returned from Hogsmeade. They were all travel-worn and did not have the joy they usually had when they came back from Hogsmeade. Looking at their expressions, it seemed that something terrible had happened.

Harry's heart was suddenly in his throat. Could it be that Sirius Black had appeared in Hogsmeade?!

He saw Neville running in front of him in a panic. He still had a big scarf around his neck and a few bags of Honey Duke candy in his hands. He did not even have time to take off his cloak. He hurriedly pulled him back.

"What happened?" Harry asked anxiously.

"It's a werewolf!" Neville panted heavily and said with a trembling voice, "A werewolf appeared in Hogsmeade. It attacked Elwyn and Hermione."

"What?!" Harry's heart, which had just been in his throat, quickly sank again. Elwyn and Hermione had actually encountered a werewolf. He did not dare to imagine what would happen next.

"How are they?" Harry stared closely at Neville. "Nothing happened to them, right?"

"I don't know, Harry!" Neville was almost out of breath. "I was in the hall just now. I saw the professors taking the two of them to the school hospital. Hermione was crying, but she looked fine. But Elwyn had fainted in Hagrid's arms. His robe was stained with blood."

Hearing Neville's words, Harry felt a chill run down his spine.

He did not have time to think about Blake now. He had to go to the school hospital to see Elwyn.

Although Elwyn was very powerful, a young wizard could not defeat a werewolf. He hoped that his injuries were not too serious.

As soon as Harry stood up, he saw Hagrid's huge figure rushing into the hall.

Hagrid's face was full of tears. Aside from the letter he received from the Dangerous Creatures Management Committee, where he learned that Buckbeak, a hippogriff with a winged head, might be executed, Harry had never seen Hagrid so miserable and scared.

He shouted Hagrid's name, wanting to rush over and ask Hagrid about Elwyn and Hermione, but he could not. The whole hall was in a mess. Everyone was loudly discussing the appearance of a werewolf in Hogsmeade.

Hagrid rushed to the professor's seat and said something to Dumbledore.

Dumbledore hurriedly got up and walked down the teacher's seat. Everyone turned to look at him, hoping that Dumbledore could explain a little so that everyone could understand the current situation.

But he did not. Dumbledore only whispered a few words to Percy when he passed by Percy, then hurriedly left the hall with Hagrid. It seemed that they were rushing to the school hospital.

"Quiet, keep quiet!" When Dumbledore and Hagrid's figures disappeared, Percy immediately shouted, "I am the president of the Boy Student Union. I can guarantee everyone's safety. Please believe me, no monster can break into Hogwarts Castle."

No one listened to him at all, and the chaotic scene continued.

Everyone suddenly realized that there was not a single teacher in the hall that night. The principal had just gone out with Hagrid. Professor Sprout had rushed back because of family matters. Professor Meg, Professor Flitwick, Snape, and Professor Lupin were not there either. They all disappeared as if they had made an appointment.

Without the teachers to maintain order, the noise in the hall was a hundred times louder than usual. Percy could not control the situation at all.
