"Aaaaaaaa——"
After three or four minutes, Snape lowered his wand.
He looked at Peter Pettigrew with a sinister gleam in his eyes and said, in a voice akin to so devil whispering in the ear, "Wormtail...you know what to do...don't you?"
"You...you..."
Peter Pettigrew twitched as he looked at Snape warily.
He hadn't heard the na "Wormtail" in a long ti.
To be honest, although Peter Pettigrew had been tortured severely by the Cruciatus Curse, he was also relieved.
He knew that as long as he survived this ordeal, the other person would not kill him. The person in front of him had risked his life to rescue him, so he had sothing he wanted him to do.
If he was not tortured by the Cruciatus Curse, then it was the other person's personal business.
But if he was tortured by the Cruciatus Curse, then it was Voldemort's business.
Peter Pettigrew knew this.
He is now an outcast in the wizarding world, and only by turning to Voldemort can he find a way to survive.
If he can help Voldemort regain his strength, he can even use Voldemort's power to return to the wizarding world in an aboveboard manner and even beco a person in charge.
And at this mont, Peter Pettigrew was more loyal than ever!
Snape gave Peter Pettigrew a disgusted look and removed the mask from his face.
"Snape…"
Peter Pettigrew's mouth twitched, and he humbly pulled on Snape's robes and whispered, "Thank you."
Snape kicked Peter aside and threw a note at him: "Wormtail, go to this place and do what you need to do."
After saying that, Snape threw the wand at him—to rescue soone in Azkaban, of course, you can't use your own wand.
Peter took the wand with a surprised look on his face and then hurriedly promised, "Trust , Snape...I will definitely help you complete your unfinished business."
Snape: "..."
This person is really disgusting!
Although he rescued Peter Pettigrew, Snape was not worried that he would be trusted and used by Voldemort.
Snape still had so understanding of Voldemort.
Voldemort only had himself in mind, but for so capable Death Eaters, Voldemort would also give so appreciation and respect—although only superficially.
But for soone like Peter... Snape was certain that once Voldemort regained his strength, he would discard him like a worn-out garnt.
He would be lucky if he didn't kill him.
There would be plenty of ti to torture him later!
Thinking about this, Snape also grew tired of continuing to spend ti with Peter Pettigrew. "Go on your own! I must return to Hogwarts imdiately; delaying anymore would arouse Dumbledore's suspicion."
"Yes, yes!" Peter replied hastily.
With a loud pop, Snape disappeared in an instant.
Peter felt a great weight fall from his shoulders. He had survived!
Next, he would help Voldemort regain his strength, assist him in completing his unfinished business, and then...appear before the Ministry of Magic with his head held high.
And then Sirius, Harry, Ron...and, of course, that brat Andy Collins.
Dumbledore…well, forget it!
Peter daydread for a while, then glanced at the address on the note and disappeared with a 'pop'.
***
Hogwarts Castle.
The toilet door opened silently, then closed again.
It seed as if soone had entered.
"Professor?" A voice emanated from the air.
Snape: "..."
Andy and Snape appear at the sa ti and then look at each other awkwardly.
"Back so soon?"
Andy said first, "I thought you'd want to catch up with an old friend for a while."
Snape's face didn't look good.
He also would have liked to chat with Pettigrew for a while, especially about the topic of the Cruciatus Curse, which was very enjoyable.
But he couldn't actually kill that timid man.
"Collins... you almost killed Fudge," Snape decided to change the subject.
He didn't care about Fudge's life or death, but Andy's behaviour did matter to Snape.
A third-year wizard, when faced with the Minister of Magic, had no hesitation whatsoever and went straight for the kill—if you can kill the Minister of Magic, who can't you kill?
Rules and authority are clearly worthless in the eyes of this young wizard.
"I was nervous!"
Andy spread his hands in a sowhat helpless manner and said, "I suddenly had my whereabouts revealed by Scrimgeour, and I was a little nervous, unable to control the power of my spell."
"As you saw, I didn't use my full strength for the first blasting curse."
Snape: "..."
When facing sudden changes and dangers, people will feel nervous to a greater or lesser extent.
So people may experience panic and feel overwheld.
Others will fight to the death.
Andy obviously belongs to the latter!
"By the way, Professor,"
Andy continued, "I used the Disillusionnt Charm and also eliminated the sll on my body; even the sound of my footsteps disappeared... How did Scrimgeour find ?"
Andy still hasn't figured this out.
There was no sound, no shadow, no sll, no emotions... It was a rocky island, not even footprints.
How did Scrimgeour find him?
Snape said indifferently, "Perhaps it was the vibration in the air."
Andy: "???"
Snape continued to explain, "Mad-Eye Moody has a magical eye, an eye that could see through invisibility and see behind things, and even...even the vibration in the air could not escape that eye."
"Scrimgeour may have used such a magical item."
Andy: "..."
Okay!
Detection-type magical items... that seems to make sense.
"Then how co you weren't discovered?" Andy asked again.
Snape glanced at Andy and said, "I can fly."
Ah...this...?
Although Snape didn't fly very high, Scrimgeour obviously didn't pay attention to the movents in the sky.
Andy put his hands up in the air in resignation and said, "Professor, let's just stick to the topic we were talking about before!"
Andy and Snape used the Ti-Turner at 11:20.
But it was not yet 11:00.
"Professor, what did you find out?" Andy asked.
Snape was silent for a mont and then said, "I just observed the dentors for a while... Their abilities are indeed very similar to the legendary 'Death'."
"Cold, lonely, sucking away all your joy and devouring your soul."
Andy's brow furrowed slightly.
Although Andy also suspected as much, these clues might just be coincidental and were not conclusive evidence at all.
"I used the Resurrection Stone to see Lily..."
Snape continued, "The spirit of the dead summoned by the Resurrection Stone was desolate, cold, and empty. Although her eyes flashed with a familiar light, there was not the slightest trace of joy or hope."
Andy's eyes twitched slightly.
When he said this, Snape was clearly in great pain: "Collins, the world behind the curtain... The power of that world is very similar to that of a Dentor: cold, empty, and it can suck away all your joy."
