A Certain Hogwarts Magician Professor

Felix sorted out the currently known information——

'From what happened today, Sirius Black's first target was not Harry, but Ron Weasley. Could it be that the Ministry of Magic got it wrong from the start? ’

'But it doesn't make sense. When Black was locked up twelve years ago, Ron was only one year old at the time... Is it a personal feud, a grievance from the previous generation? ’

Felix recalled meeting Arthur Weasley and Molly Weasley at the Leaky Cauldron. They made him feel like they were friendly, warm wizards, except that they had a little more children.

'No, my thinking is wrong. If Black and the Weasleys have a grudge, he can find them directly. The Weasleys don't have the double protection of Dementors and Hogwarts. ’

'So, Ron Weasley is the key! ’

Felix tried to recall the characteristics of this student. Except for the amazing courage that burst out in the secret room, everything was normal after that. The homework he handed in had obvious traces of patchwork, and he didn't seem to be very smart...

Pull away.

He focused on Ron Weasley's life and social circle, from his friends, parents, brothers, and the sister who had been temporarily bewitched by Voldemort's Horcruxes, and naturally, he thought of Ron pet Scabbers.

If Ron wasn't Black's real target, the only suspect, or living thing, in him was Scabbers, the pet rat.

"Rat, tsk!" Felix sighed, "I don't usually doubt it, but since Black has concealed the fact that he is an Animagus, will the mouse be the same? Or is it a A cursed victim?"

Felix considered it for a moment, and he still preferred the mouse to be an Animagus, rather than some vicious forced transformation, which can be seen from Blake's two or three reckless slams into Hogwarts.

"Black absolutely hates that mouse."

Felix felt a little tricky. Although the above ideas are based on assumptions and reasoning, it has to be said that the possibility is very high.

In fact, if Scabbers is a victim of a malicious transformation, it's okay to find it and send it to St Mungo for treatment, but if it is an illegal Animagus, it means that it can change at any time. Back to the wizard. The problem is: I can't tell if I'm an enemy or a friend.

"He may hide from the enemy, or he may have to remain anonymous for some reason. But—" Felix felt a huge sense of absurdity in his heart. "Yes, if he really wants to hide, he can choose to avoid the magic world. A wizard can live very well. But he didn't. Instead, he wronged himself, hiding in the wizard's family and disguising himself as a pet mouse. , this is definitely not an act of kindness."

The reason he could think of was that the wizard didn't want to be disconnected from the wizarding world, and Mr. Weasley's job at the Ministry of Magic was just enough to meet his demands.

At this point, he almost has a basic judgment. The mouse is probably not a good person. First, give a stun spell to meet him, and then put it down. Then, whether to obtain information or pour Veritaserum depends on his true identity. As for Sirius Black...

"It's hard to say, the enemy of a bad person is not necessarily a good person, the reality is too complicated. Moreover, Black also ran from his hands twice... Although there is a reason for each time, this feeling of being held by the nose is very uncomfortable. it is good."

Felix always thought that Blake had no brains. Several of the clients at the time—Snape said he was stupid, Lupin said he was impulsive, Professor McGonagall said he was lively, and Mrs. Fat did not comment, but directly revealed Many of his 'adventures' and 'great achievements' when he was in school, some ideas are really not what normal people can come up with.

"This time he was very smart and seized the gap of the Christmas holiday. If Harry hadn't been good, he might have succeeded."

Next, Felix did two things.

The first thing, he went to the nest of the eight-eyed giant spider in the Forbidden Forest.

The Forbidden Forest was covered with thick snow, and Felix was wearing a dark cloak. When his figure appeared in a hollow space, there was a rattling sound around him.

The clearing was also stained white by the snow, only the central hemispherical cobweb nest was conspicuous enough.

"Gok, come out and meet me." Felix sent the voice into the cobweb lair.

Snowflakes fell rustling, and a few giant eight-eyed spiders slowly emerged from inside.

Gok has become the new king of this group of spiders. He occupies the best position in the center of the group, surrounded by a few big spiders, and he looks like a king.

"Wizard." Gork said irritably, "Is something wrong?"

"This is not a conversational attitude, Gork, have you forgotten what I said?"

Gork's body froze, "I don't mean anything else, I just hibernated."

"Will the eight-eyed giant spider hibernate?" Felix asked curiously. Will anyone catch a few or extract venom while the eight-eyed giant spider is hibernating?

"Winter will make us uncomfortable, we try to stay in the cave and rarely go out." Gok explained, "But it doesn't mean that we don't know anything about the outside world, so I'll just come out."

Felix nodded: "I heard that you can control the spiders in the Forbidden Forest?" From his perspective, on the white spider webs, snow, and dead leaves, there are quite a few spiders the size of fists rustling. crawl.

"They are hibernating, and many can't survive this winter. What you see are the young spiders of the eight-eyed giant spider. The thick hair on the body can resist the ice and snow." Gok said, waving his claws.

"I just need some smart enough helpers." Felix curled his lips, "Listen, Gork, I need you to look for a big black dog or a stranger in the Forbidden Forest, it may have Fixed footholds, such as abandoned beast caves, you don’t need to do anything after finding them, just contact me after remembering the location.”

Gok thought for a long time and said, "I can only let the spiderlings go out. Our size is too obvious, and it will attract a counterattack from the centaurs."

"Okay." Felix agreed, and as he parted, he gave Gork a large barrel of sherry—leftover from Trelawney's Christmas present, not to his liking.

"Count as a late gift, Gork."

The second thing, he went to the school hospital and asked some information about the mouse from Ron. Scabbers actually inherited it from his older brother Percy.

"How long has it been in your house?"

"It's been a while," said Ron, puzzled.

"Specifically?" Felix asked tactfully. "How old were you when you became aware of its existence, five or six years old, seven or eight years old?"

According to his guess, since it is Percy Weasley's pet, seven years is a reasonable time. Considering that the Weasley family is an orthodox wizard family, it may be a year or two earlier.

Ron thought hard, "I seem to have heard my mother mention it, it should be when Percy was five or six years old. One morning, he found Scabber and immediately decided to keep it. My mother was actually not optimistic because it looked like a common bird. The mouse, also missing a toe. But Percy lost his temper, crying and fussing, and his mother had to agree to him. This is Percy's dark history, and he is not willing to tell anyone."

Ron grinned, and it ended up with a wound on his leg.

"Ordinary mice, one toe is missing..." Felix repeated softly, and he said with admiration: "So, Banban lived at least eleven or twelve years? I remember that ordinary mice generally live three years. Just fine."

"This is Nick Lemay of mice."
