"Phew, it's finally quiet. This guy's voice is really ugly..." John muttered after finishing his confession.
"What a magical ability!" Snape and Dumbledore's expressions froze when they saw the spell released by John, and then Dumbledore exclaimed in admiration.
With their strength, they can naturally see that this is a spell that directly affects the mind.
But that's not the point.
The key is that John did not use a wand to release this spell, and this spell did not have a normal spell trajectory, but appeared out of thin air above the head of the person being cast.
Not to mention being stunned like Pettigrew, even if it can only cause a delay of just one second, it is enough to cause decisive consequences between masters' attacks.
"Haha, it's not that powerful. It's just to keep him quiet for a while, that is, he has no ability to resist now, otherwise it won't have such a good effect." John said with a smile, but he didn't explain too much. Professor Nap, the rest is up to you!"
"He won't wake up suddenly, will he?" Snape asked.
Although the spell John cast just now was very powerful, he was still wary of the possibility of Pettigrew waking up... Maybe it was because he suffered too many losses from the four predators when he was still a student?
The Four Predators were led by Harry's father, James Potter (nicknamed Prongs), plus Sirius Black (nicknamed Padfoot) and Lupin (nicknamed Moony Face). A small group with Peter Pettigrew (nicknamed Wormtail).
Together they invented the Marauder's Map, which is why they are called the Marauders.
Ah, the Marauder's Map, that's an interesting prop. If I remember correctly, this thing should still be lying in Filch's office - John thought.
"As long as you don't cause him strong sensory stimulation, he probably won't wake up!" Faced with Snape's suspicion, John didn't care. After all, both parties didn't know each other very well, so it was normal to have doubts.
Snape nodded. To be safe, he still conjured a rope from somewhere, used his wand to bind Pettigrew tightly, then lifted it up with one hand and walked towards his office.
Snape's office was in the basement of the castle, and there were dungeons there - although they were no longer in use.
Interrogating Pettigrew there, even if the barrier is not released, no one will be disturbed.
John also followed~ As the person "assassinated", he certainly had the right to observe.
Facing Snape and John's leaving figures, Dumbledore sighed.
Using lynching on Pettigrew really violated his principles.
But this matter was too important, and he very much suspected that there was a secret behind the deaths of James and Lily back then - and this secret was probably in Pettigrew.
That's why he turned a blind eye to this matter - at least he had a reasonable reason.
Afterwards, he was even more glad that he agreed to John.
because……
"Damn, how dare you! How dare you?" Half an hour later, Snape, who had finished interrogating Pettigrew, roared crazily at Pettigrew, who was tied to the chair, with red eyes.
But he had learned through Legilimency that it was not Black who betrayed Lily and killed her, but the filthy and wretched bastard in front of him was the real culprit.
"I don't want to either... But the Dark Lord, Severus, you know him, who knows what he will do... Ask yourself, what will you do?" Pettigrew begged, looking at him Since Snape was once a Death Eater, he should feel the same way.
However, what he didn't know was that Snape was once a Death Eater, but he was Dumbledore's undercover.
What he didn't even expect was Snape's feelings for Lily...
"I will not betray my friends and gouge out their bones!" The furious Snape ignored Pettigrew's pleas. He only knew that the man in front of him had killed Lily. He... died as a pity!
No, how can death be enough? He deserves the most painful punishment in the world.
So he had no scruples and unleashed Cruciatus on Pettigrew, the Unforgivable Curse that was specifically designed to torture him.
Pettigrew's wail instantly echoed through the entire office, but the soundproofing of Snape's office was very good, so it was impossible for him to scream even if he broke his throat.
It was only after casting the spell that Snape remembered that there was another John in the office.
If we were to use the Legilis curse on Pettigrew, it wouldn't be a big problem if John endorsed it. It would just be out of order at most.
But using the Unforgivable Curse now is completely against the law.
Snape looked at John subconsciously.
But when he saw John looking up at the sky, as if he was studying the pattern on the ceiling, he understood the other person's attitude.
As expected of someone from the Ministry of Doctrine of the Faith, he is very particular!
"Severus... don't... let me go..." After finally waiting for the effect of a heart-breaking bone-cutting operation, Pettigrew gasped and begged Snape for mercy.
"Let you go? Then who will let her go..." Snape gritted his teeth and said every word.
Then there was another heartbreaking blow.
Pettigrew's miserable howl sounded again.
"Ahem, it doesn't matter, but you still have to be careful and don't kill him. If he does die, it will be difficult for the Ministry of Magic to explain it. And I think you don't want the events back then to be concluded, right?" Once, John spoke.
But it's not a plea, he doesn't care about Pettigrew's life or death.
It's just that it would be really troublesome for Pettigrew to die here. Everything about the Ministry of Magic is a trivial matter. The key is to clear Sirius' name.
Although John and Sirius have no friendship, Sirius's existence still has great significance, whether as the current "master" of the Black family or as Harry's teacher.
"Of course, I will pay attention to controlling the strength!" Snape nodded after hearing John's words, then put down his wand and rolled up his sleeves...
...Watching Snape greet Pettigrew with fists to the flesh, John fell silent.
He didn't expect that Snape, who usually seemed so silent, had such a wild side.
You are a wizard...how can you be so rude?
But not to mention, Snape's muscle lines are actually pretty good...
Well... Snape, how about you come to my side and become a paladin? You can also be a Death Knight. How about I help you resurrect Lily?
John couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
"Stop, Severus!" Just as John was thinking about whether to pull Snape into his camp, the office door opened.
It was Dumbledore who came in.
He thought the interrogation was almost over, so he came over to take a look.
As soon as he came in, he saw Snape greeting Pettigrew with his fist, and Pettigrew was already a little bloody.
This situation made Dumbledore feel a little sad...Severus, you are a wizard, how come you have become like Hagrid.
But as John on the side told Dumbledore the results of the interrogation, the old man's expression changed instantly.
So what, Severus, get out of the way and let me do it too! ! !
