Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple

Chapter 107 The Theft of the Marauder's Map

When Louis and Colin rushed back to the Gryffindor dormitory, a messy scene awaited them.

The common room outside the dormitory was full of people, and everyone was discussing who made the mess in the dormitory. This is obviously a sign of human waste.

All kinds of beds were scattered all over the second grade room, all the boxes and cabinets were opened, and personal clothes and personal belongings were thrown aside.

"Do you think it was Sirius Black who entered the Gryffindor Tower again?" Ron whispered, because last time, it was Sirius's "violent" behavior that made the Fat Lady hide in the portrait on the fifth floor. .

Louis thought so at first, but then dismissed the idea. On the one hand, Sirius did not have a password to clear the level. Although Sir Cadogan was a bastard, he could distinguish between matters of principle. Besides, according to the students, At that time, even Cadogan didn't know what the man was searching for inside.

On the other hand, the second-year student has no real conflict of interest with Black. All he has to deal with is the little mouse who has been in the Weasley family for thirteen years. Moreover, he had reached an agreement with Louis, so why would he suddenly come to search their dormitory?

"How about it, Louis." Colin, who led him to the crime scene, successfully passed through the crowd and searched around his messy bed.

"I know what was taken away." Louis said with a dark face, looking at the mattress where he had been lifted up, where the parchment should have been.

Because he was going to the dungeon for class today, Louis didn't bring anything else with him, including the Marauder's Map that was traded from the twin brothers.

But now, the dormitory was turned into a mess, and nothing else was missing, but the Marauder's Map.

Louis stared at the people in Gryffindor House, reasoning that there were only so many people who knew that he had the Marauder's Map, and Sir Cadogan said that no other outsiders entered the Gryffindor common room.

Therefore, it is very possible that there is just a mole in Gryffindor!

"Louis?" Hermione's worried tone came from behind him. When he turned around, he didn't know when this girl appeared beside him.

"It's the Marauder's Map." Louis said softly to the girl. Since confessing to Hermione last time, he had developed a sense of trust in her.

"The Marauder's Map? You mean it was the Marauder's Map that was lost?" Hermione responded in a low voice, her little head spinning rapidly.

"If what you said before is true, I think it should be easy to guess who came to steal this thing." Hermione pointed at Louis, making him slightly stunned.

"You mean."

Louis thought of a possibility, which was also the most likely outcome.

However, if it was really Peter Pettigrew, how did he know that the Marauder's Map was in his hands.

"Headmaster, it's just Gryffindor students messing around, why do you have to come in person?"

"Nonsense? Severus, this is an obvious case of theft." It was the voice of Professor McGonagall, who was dissatisfied with Snape's biased words.

"Okay, Severus, I know that a bottle of Polyjuice Potion was also lost in your office. You will suspect that Louis and the others stole it. However, I assure you, this matter has nothing to do with him."

As soon as he finished speaking, Dumbledore appeared at the scene of the crime with several teachers.

"Principal, you always favor him."

"This is not a gang, Severus. After all, he is also a victim in this matter." Dumbledore said, and then he looked at the horrific scene.

"Any clues, Louis?"

"There are some guesses."

"Oh? Mr. Zhiduoxing, it seems you know the truth?" Snape said sarcastically.

"I'm afraid you don't believe it."

"If you return the Polyjuice Potion you stole from me, I can trust you for once."

"Severus!" Professor McGonagall scolded. She would never allow others to frame the students of her college.

Polyjuice Potion? Snape's Polyjuice Potion was stolen too? This is the second time Louis has heard the news.

After contacting Ron's strange appearance before, Louis seemed to have guessed the whole story. This may have explained how Peter Pettigrew knew about the Marauder's Map.

Dumbledore looked into Lewis's eyes, and suddenly he laughed. He waved his wand lightly, and the messy objects on the ground began to return to their places automatically.

"I probably know." Old Dengtou's kind words shocked Lewis.

This old man couldn't have used Legilimency again, so he wouldn't be able to hide the secrets of the Marauder's Map, let alone Peter Pettigrew.

In fact, Lewis was worried. The Marauder's Map was no secret in Dumbledore's eyes. The principal even secretly helped the four brothers in the making of the map.

It's just that he has always had doubts about the death of Peter Pettigrew. He didn't expect the powerful power of black magic at that time.

He did not trust Peter Pettigrew, and even within the Order of the Phoenix, Dumbledore would not let him access some of the core content. Therefore, when Sirius suggested that Peter Pettigrew be the secret keeper, Dumbledore was opposed to it.

But Sirius's words made the old man finally compromise.

"I believe him. The only person in the world who is least likely to hurt James is Peter."

But it was also because of this compromise that the Porter family paid a heavy price.

Severus's rebellion was a kind of self-salvation for that woman, so Dumbledore was not compensating for his mistakes.

"Promise me to protect Harry."

This was the last time he saw Sirius. The man left his beloved motorcycle to Dumbledore and chose to pursue the traitor.

In fact, he had never believed that Sirius would betray James. He had always suspected that Peter was still alive. And when he passed Legilimency through Louis' brain, he gradually understood the ins and outs of the whole thing.

"Headmaster?" Snape felt strange about Dumbledore's behavior.

"Let's go, it's no big deal. I think Lewis will take care of it."

"Oh, and also, replace Sir Cadogan, so that Mr. Longbottom doesn't have to remember the password on a piece of paper every day."

Neville couldn't help but lower his head when he heard Dumbledore's words, his face flushed, and he was really embarrassed.

After the three Dumbledores went out, Louis sat upright on the bed. The situation was now a bit unfavorable for them. It seemed that the only way was to contact Sirius again.

Moreover, Peter Pettigrew controls the Marauder's Map. As one of the makers of the map, it is impossible for him not to use this thing, so the one in the most danger should be Sirius.

This is going to be troublesome!
