Lu Ke smiled helplessly: "I don't feel it."

Johanna sighed: "Forget it, what the Dementors may do recently, Fudge simply can't or has never thought about stopping it. He just wants to prevent Dumbledore from going crazy after what happened."

Lu Ke shook his head.

So far, he still has no way to deal with the dementors, so this matter is no longer something he can change.

What really makes Lu Ke curious now is where Voldemort, who has given up on the rune snake, is and what plans he is preparing.

Hogsmeade.

This is the only wizarding settlement in the entire Anglicis, a village composed purely of wizards, the most prosperous place except Diagon Alley in London.

But the gathering of wizards also means that countless secrets are hidden.

There are dark corners everywhere inside and outside the small village. Despite the constant patrols of dementors, there are still many places that no one knows about.

One of them is a forest on a hillside.

Under the shade of the tree, on the dark rotten leaves, a huge rune snake was standing in front of a small mouse.

"So you escaped, but you didn't come to me. Do you know why you were able to escape?"

What came out of the rune snake's mouth was not the language of snakes, but the voice of a wizard. In front of it, the mouse trembled.

"answer me!"

Then the mouse trembled and slowly turned into a short man. He knelt down in front of the big snake and could hardly utter a complete word: "Master...I..."

Rune Snake smiled: "You were able to escape because I attracted the attention of Dumbledore and Lu Ke. You thought you were hiding deeply, but it's a pity that Lu Ke is a wizard who will not let go of any details. He has long suspected a mouse that can live for twelve years."

"Of course, I have not abandoned you as a servant, Pettigrew... Peter."

The short wizard, Peter Pettigrew, quickly gave him a flattering look: "Thank you, my master!"

But Rune Snake avoided the wizard's flattering gaze with disdain: "That's enough, I want you to prepare a magic for me to regain my body!"

Peter Pettigrew was stunned for a moment: "Is there such magic in this world?"

Rune Snake nodded: "Yes, and one good thing is that I can get some powers that would have been impossible to exist, such as the blood in Lu Ke's body that can cure all curses, injuries, and poisons."

Peter Pettigrew quickly smiled flatteringly: "Your will is supreme, my master. From now on, the Dark Lord is back!"

The rune snake, Voldemort, did not show any excitement: "This matter must be kept strictly confidential, Peter, if others see you like this, my plan will not succeed."

Peter Pettigrew quickly put away his cheerful expression: "I'm sorry, Master... I'm just too happy..."

The Rune Snake nodded: "I need you to find my father's bones, and... the flesh of a loyal servant."

Peter Pettigrew's eyes flashed.

At that moment, he was indistinguishable from a mouse.

"I voluntarily offer my flesh and blood, Master!"

A cold light flashed from the corner of Rune Snake's eyes: "I only need the flesh of my loyal servant, and the flesh is enough. The blood is contributed by another useful enemy."

Peter Pettigrew nodded: "Where should I go to find your father, Master?"

The rune snake turned around: "Go to the Riddle family cemetery. The name on the tombstone is Tom Riddle."

Peter Pettigrew nodded quickly: "I'm going now, Master..."

Rune Snake nodded: "Don't let anyone see it, especially that Lu Ke."

Peter Pettigrew nodded, then apparated away.

Only the rune snake looked up and glanced at the spire of the Hogwarts Castle tower in the far corner of the valley, then turned around and swam into the darkness.

"Peter Pettigrew?"

Lupine looked at Harry with a surprised look on his face: "Why do you ask this suddenly?"

Harry glanced at Lupine nervously: "Professor Snape said that he knew my father, and Peter Pettigrew should be very familiar with my father."

Lupine sighed: "More than just familiarity, they are friends."

Harry nodded: "What about Professor Snape?"

Lupine shook his head: "With your father? They are two wizards who dislike each other. They are the same age, one is Gryffindor and the other is Slytherin. This is perfectly normal."

Harry shook his head: "But Professor Snape...he is a good man."

Lupine smiled helplessly: "He is a good man... This is the first time I have heard someone describe him like this."

"As for the conflict between him and your father, I can only say that both of them are responsible. Your father was once an overly proud man who liked to take risks. He inadvertently offended Snape, and Snape retaliated in kind. If I could still tell the difference between right and wrong at the beginning, I couldn’t tell the difference at all later.”

Harry sighed: "Then...is it that after all this time, Professor Snape is still unwilling to forgive my father? Even he is no longer here..."

Lupine sighed: "Probably because your father saved Snape once. In his opinion, being saved by someone he hates is probably an unforgettable shame."

Harry nodded: "I understand."

"Is it possible that Peter Pettigrew...is still alive?"

Lupine was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Harry: "Why do you say that, Harry?"

Harry shook his head: "Because... he is my father's friend, and I also want to meet him."

Lu Ping sighed longly: "I don't know where he went. Don't worry. If he knew you thought so, he would be very happy."

Harry nodded and left Lupine's office.

Back in the hall, he sat between Ron and Hermione, and sighed.

Ron looked at Harry and shook his head helplessly: "Please, stop sighing, I'm afraid of Hermione..."

Hermione looked up from the thick books that surrounded the castle as if she was electrocuted: "What are you afraid of? What's wrong?"

Ron shook his head: "Nothing."

Hermione glanced at Ron, then burrowed back into the pile of books.

Harry shook his head: "Hermione, should you take a break..."

A vague voice came from behind the stack of books: "I don't need it."

Ron nodded: "So you'd better not sigh, I'm tired enough."

Harry shook his head: "Professor Snape hates my father. Peter Pettigrew must be dead."

Ron was silent for a moment: "So there's something wrong with that map... Professor Lupin told you?"
