Chapter 580 Veritaserum
According to the normal process, to find a hero who is missing and listed as dead, the first step is to confirm the identity and health of the hero.
Dumbledore, knowing that Peter Pettigrew was evil, would naturally not follow the normal procedure.
As an experienced Auror, Moody would not think it was normal for an illegal Animagus to hide in a wizard's family without revealing his identity.
As old friends for many years, Moody and Dumbledore looked at each other. Moody said to Dumbledore: "I think Peter Pettigrew's behavior is very suspicious. He is an illegal Animagus.
I don't believe it if you're hiding in a wizard's family to avoid Death Eaters."
Dyson Russell glanced at Moody who was speaking. As the Deputy Minister of Aurors, he naturally has the ability to match his status.
"What Moody said makes sense. I think he should be interrogated."
Dumbledore blinked and asked Dyson hesitantly: "Is this appropriate?"
Pack
Old bee, keep pretending
Garfield complained while filling his mouth with snacks.
"I think it's necessary. He happens to be in a coma. It's appropriate to give him some veritaserum." Moody decisively chose a method for Peter Pettigrew: "However, we have a little less people, but it will not hinder the follow-up.
interrogation and investigation”
Now in the Ministry of Magic, Dumbledore is the uncrowned king, and Cornelius Fudge himself is an unreliable gambler and liar. Under Dumbledore's shock, he became a little better.
After a series of changes, the top management of the Ministry of Magic has become much cleaner. This is why Moody dared to say this. In fact, according to his previous thoughts, Dumbledore should not delegate power. Being the minister himself is the best for the whole of Britain.
of.
However, Dumbledore could not let go of Hogwarts or the children in the school. This was his favorite place and his favorite profession.
"Just do as you say." Dumbledore continued with a troubled expression: "Do you have any veritaserum on you?"
Moody, Dyson and others all shook their heads. They were fighting Aurors, and they carried some potions to repair injuries and detoxify. Veritaserum was rarely used.
"Then we still need to trouble Severance."
Severance Snape
Moody had always complained about Dumbledore's efforts to protect him. He personally did not like Severance Snape, who in Moody's eyes was too deep-rooted.
Dumbledore reached out and wrote a few words on the parchment on his desk, and then used magic to pass through the school through his headmaster, making the paper turn into a bird and fly out.
The little bird flew down the tower, crossed the corridor, avoided the running students, and accurately found Snape who was grading homework in the basement of the Potions class.
He was currently staring at Harry's Potions homework and was very unhappy.
This Potter just inherited Lily's eyes, but what about her intelligence and knowledge?
I can't even write such a simple Potions homework well.

Wow
The little bird flew in front of Snape. Snape, who had worked with Dumbledore for many years, naturally knew Dumbledore's methods and contact information.
He recited the spell to unlock the magical bird, and the bird turned into an ordinary piece of parchment. Snape couldn't help but frown when he saw the content on it.
Do you need to bring your veritaserum to the principal's office?
Why?
Snape felt that this matter was not simple, and he even said it had something to do with Harry Potter.
It was true that he felt a little unhappy, but he also had a clear distinction between public and private grievances and knew that now was not the time to think wildly.
Taking out his wand, he lit the letter on fire and burned it to ashes. Snape took out a small key from his pocket.
He walked to his personal safe, opened the safe, took out a wooden box, chanted a spell into the box, the box opened by itself, and a bottle of veritaserum leaked out first.
This is a box cast with special magic. It cannot be opened without a key and an accurate spell. If it is opened forcibly, not only will there be a magic attack, but the special structure inside will be destroyed, so that the thief cannot get what he wants.
.
Of course, it doesn't matter if the spell is recited wrongly. Each spell corresponds to some special medicine he made.
Snape hurried to Dumbledore's office. Naturally, he saw the side he least wanted to see. Harry and Ron sat aside, tilting their heads to look at Peter Pettigrew, who was still floating in the air.
.
The disaster was 100% caused by the two of them. Snape felt helpless about this. He was really worried that he might not be able to take care of this troublemaker until he reached adulthood.
If I die, I don't know how to face Lily.
"Headmaster, why does Peter Pettigrew act like this again and look like this?"
Being turned into a mouse all the year round, Peter Pettigrew's appearance and limbs have become somewhat mouse-like. In addition, he is short and his appearance is even more strange.
"Severus, we don't know the specific situation, so we asked you to bring Veritaserum," Dumbledore explained to him.
"According to the rules of interrogation, Veritaserum cannot be used as a legal basis. It has many loopholes." Snape carefully observed Peter Pettigrew, discovered his mistake, and continued: "Oh, his current state
It’s okay”
Dumbledore knew very well how capable his double agent and the Potions Professor at Hogwarts was. The future principals of Hogwarts would be no more than him and McGonagall.
His successor as a white wizard is still none other than Harry.
However, Snape can assist Harry very well.
Snape handed the Veritaserum to Moody. He knew that Moody could be trusted, Dumbledore's staunch supporter and a member of the Order of the Phoenix.
As for Dyson Russell, this man is honest, but he is not one of their own.
Moody took the Veritaserum from Snape, sniffed it, confirmed the taste and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, the smell of a qualified Veritaserum." After saying that, he used the wand to control Peter Pettigrew to float.
in front of yourself.
Use magic wand to pry open Peter Pettigrew's mouth, and drink the Veritaserum in his hand.
As the medicine went down, Dumbledore's huge magic power sensed that the potion entered Peter Pettigrew's taste buds. His long coma caused his stomach to be empty. Without any food hindrance, the medicine was fully absorbed.
A minute later, Peter Pettigrew was still unconscious.
Dyson: "It's not okay for him to be in a coma like this. What if the medicine wears off?"
Knowing that Garfield had cast a coma spell on Pettigrew, Dumbledore pretended to observe for a while and then took out his wand and pointed it at Peter Pettigrew: "Peter Pettigrew may have been under a spell. Let me see if I can wake him up."
