Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple

Chapter 117 Harry’s decision

Peter Pettigrew stared at the seven people standing in front of him, his face flinching, and fear flashed in his eyes.

"Sirius, oh my dear old friend." Peter's face turned pale. He didn't know whether it was because of the pain of his injuries or because he was frightened by Sirius.

Sirius said nothing, but the anger on his face could not be concealed. He roared and charged forward, trying to tear Peter Pettigrew apart.

"Calm down, Sirius."

Louis and Harry quickly grabbed him, and Lupine even stood between them.

"You don't know what he has done, Remus!" Sirius shouted angrily, his eyes full of disdain and anger.

"I know, Sirius, but you have to calm down, Harry needs to know the truth." Lupine supported his old friend, and seeing Harry beside him, Sirius' excited heart was able to calm down.

"Harry? You are Harry, oh, you really look like your father." Peter Pettigrew listened to their conversation and turned to look at the stunned Harry Potter.

"How dare you mention his father in front of Harry, you traitor!"

"Traitor? Sirius, are you mistaken?" Peter Pettigrew blinked, completely opposite to what he said when he faced Louis before, "It was you who betrayed James and Lily, who sold them to The Dark Lord!"

"Me? Voldemort's spy?" Black suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, as if he was hearing the funniest joke in the world, "I will never kowtow to a person, what nonsense Voldemort, he doesn't deserve it! It's you, Peter, we A few of them never thought that you would become his lackey!”

"What are you talking about, Sirius?" Peter Pettigrew trembled.

"Why, are you afraid of hearing your old master's name?" Black sneered, "I remember that they also disliked you very much among them. This is what my dear sister who was imprisoned with me in Azkaban told me. of."

"We originally thought that as a weak and stupid representative, Peter would not be taken seriously by Voldemort. He would definitely come to hunt us down. In this way, letting him serve as the secret keeper is the safest choice."

"But who would have thought... Peter Pettigrew immediately sold the location of the hiding place to Voldemort. Fortunately, I came up with this brilliant idea. In the end, it was me who killed James and Lily."

"Forgive me, Remus." Sirius' voice was filled with guilt.

"It's nothing, Sirius, I'm an old friend." Lupine smiled at him. He knew what Sirius was referring to. "Please forgive me for treating you as a spy."

"Of course, Remus." Sirius patted Lupine on the shoulder. The misunderstanding between the two brothers was also resolved when the truth about Peter Pettigrew was revealed.

"So, how do we kill him."

"Absurd, absolutely ridiculous!" muttered Peter Pettigrew to himself.

"Harry, don't listen to Black. He is a lunatic. Everything he says is false, just to frame me." Peter Pettigrew began to hug Harry's legs and cried, "He is the same as this werewolf. Lupine is a werewolf, he is very dangerous, and I am here to protect you."

"Don't touch Harry, you dirty traitor." Black kicked Peter, "You have no right to say such things!"

"You have to believe me, Harry. And Ron, my little master." Peter Pettigrew caught all the children around him. "You see, I have been a mouse for more than ten years, and I have always been... Good pets, I never meant to hurt you.”

"If you were really a mouse and not a human, it wouldn't be surprising to say that, but who knows what you are worried about." Louis interrupted, "Don't forget, Ron, what he just did to us."

"I'm protecting you. Louis, I think there may be some misunderstanding between us..."

"Protection, huh, if you were to protect us, would you still use the Cruciatus Curse on us? If Professor Lupine hadn't appeared in time, I would have died under the Killing Curse. Is this the protection you are talking about?" Louis shook his head.

"What?"

Sirius, Astoria, Hermione and Harry exclaimed simultaneously.

"How dare you do such a heartless thing and treat a child like this!" Black was furious, and no one stopped him. He punched Peter Pettigrew in the face with two fists.

"Well..." Peter Pettigrew fell to the ground, looking extremely miserable, "It's not like this, it's not what you think..."

"The facts are very clear, Peter." Louis knelt down, "Besides, you also admitted before that you were the one who framed Professor Lupine, stole Professor Snape's Polyjuice Potion, and knocked out Ron. Haha, I really don’t know what other more disgusting things you have done.”

"I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!" Peter Pettigrew almost cried, and he turned his head to Harry again, "Harry, you must help me, I am your father's best friend, he must Don’t want to see me die.”

"Best friends, but they were all killed by you." Harry said sadly.

"No, that's not the case." Peter Pettigrew shook his head wildly, he was almost falling into despair.

"Good girl, kind and beautiful girl, help me, you won't let them kill such a poor person like me."

Astoria was a little scared, and she didn't feel like she shrank towards Louis. Louis grabbed her hand and held it in front of her, making her gradually relax.

"Stop struggling to your death, your death is coming Peter."

Sirius took the wand from Lupin's hand, and pointed the wand that Peter had taken away from Peter Pettigrew.

"No, Sirius, we are good brothers, I am Wormtail, do you remember..."

"Good brother? Are you referring to me as brothers now? Did you ever think about these two words when you betrayed James?" Black roared.

"You can't kill me, Sirius, you can't kill me. Don't forget the unbreakable oath you made in front of that vampire. You can't do anything to me." Peter Pettigrew suddenly became excited, as if he was trying to catch someone. Lived the hope of life.

"I will kill you even if I die, Peter! Say your last words!"

Sirius approached Peter Pettigrew step by step. What he didn't expect was that Sirius would make such a crazy decision. It seemed that he was already determined to die for revenge.

Louis looked at the scene that happened. He couldn't let Sirius kill Peter Pettigrew. First of all, regardless of whether the unbreakable vow in Peter's mouth existed or not, the crime of killing alone was enough to establish evidence that Sirius was a criminal. Secondly, he originally wanted to clear Sirius's name, and the most critical point was that Peter Pettigrew could not die.

But Louis did not intervene. He felt that there was one person who had a better say in handling this matter.

"Sirius, you can't kill him." After several mental battles, Harry finally stood up and stood between Sirius and Peter.
