Peter Pettigrew suddenly grabbed Ron from behind. No one expected him to do this. He was too close to Ron.
Ron didn't dodge either, he stood there pale and let Peter grab him.
Peter Pettigrew snatched the wand, and Ron stood in front of him like a rag doll.
The warmth that Harry and Black had just created dissipated in an instant. The atmosphere became tense again, Harry and Hermione hurriedly aimed their wands at Pettigrew Peter.
"Ron!" said Hermione worriedly, looking at them tearfully.
"You vile coward, let go of Ron!" Harry yelled angrily.
Ivan didn't speak, but the end of the wand in his hand was glowing faintly.
This is the manifestation of the magic power gathering. He stared closely at Peter Pettigrew, looking for an opportunity to make a move.
"Peter Pettigrew, you dirty bastard, you groveling coward, let go of that boy!" Blake growled angrily, "You really let me down, I should have killed you just now!"
"Give me to the dementors, it's no different from killing me directly, and it may even be worse!" Pettigrew Peter trembled and begged with an extremely frightened expression on his face, "I can't go there, they will kill me Sucked away from my soul! Let me go, Sirius, for the sake of being friends!"
"Friend?!" Blake walked towards Peter, and said through gritted teeth, "I was really blind at the time, and I actually made a friend like you. This is the thing I regret the most in my life!"
"No, don't come over here!" shrieked Peter Pettigrew, pointing his wand at Black, then quickly turned back and pointed it at Ron's chest, "Stay away from me, all of you, put down your wand, if you still want to If you keep Ron alive, do as I tell you, otherwise"
In the huge hall, he was the only one shouting at the top of his lungs, no one moved.
"Quickly, do as I say!" Peter Pettigrew, with a flicker of madness in his eyes, yelled, "I'm not kidding, I'll give you ten more seconds, if any of you don't Throw down your wand and wait to collect Ron's body."
Ivan, Harry, Hermione, and Black glanced at each other, and they hesitated.
Peter Pettigrew was clearly playing for real, he was really going to kill Ron, and the end of his wand in his hand began to glow with a faint green glow, which was Avada Kedavra.
Harry gasped, looking at Pettigrew unwillingly.
He suddenly regretted that he had stopped Black from killing Peter just now. If he hadn't done that, this situation would not have happened now. In order to clear the grievances of Sirius Black, he can't let Peter Pettigrew go, but he can't ignore Ron.
Harry hesitated, not knowing what to do.
On the one hand, he is his best friend, and on the other hand, he is indeed his godfather. No matter which one he gives up, he will feel distressed.
"Do as he says, Harry!" said Black suddenly. "Put the wand down, we must keep the boy safe."
"But"
"It's nothing!" said Blake eagerly. "This boy is your friend, and we cannot leave him alone. Remember, Harry, that if a friend is in danger and needs your help, you will do everything in your power." If I can help him, I will not hesitate to pay the price of my life!"
Harry sobbed at Black's words and threw his wand to the ground.
"Ron, I know you are controlled by Peter Pettigrew. I don't know if you can hear me, but I still want to say." Harry looked up at Ron, his eyes were extremely firm, and he shouted with all his strength Said, "Ron, you are my best friend and will always be! Just like what Sirius said just now, I am willing to give my life to help you! So, I hope you wake up quickly."
No one spoke, everyone looked at Harry quietly and listened to his loud cry from the heart.
"You are a good son of your father, Harry!" Black said with relief, "I am so proud of you!"
"Fine, two more!" shrieked Peter Pettigrew, who was also weeping, and the tears blurred his eyes.
He tried his best not to cry, he saw the shadow of James in Harry, he thought that he had such a friend who was willing to give everything for him, he thought of James, Sirius and Lupine when he was a student All kinds of past events, they took risks in Hogwarts together, and their footprints are everywhere on the campus.
But he has nothing now, and he destroyed it all with his own hands.
Hearing Harry's shout, Peter Pettigrew told himself over and over again in his heart that what he did was not wrong, and hiding behind the strong was the right choice.
If he had fought against the Dark Lord, he would probably be dead by now!
"Ivan, Hermione, I have no right to ask you to do anything, but" Black looked at Ivan and Hermione who were still holding their wands.
"I know, Sirius!" Ivan put his wand on the ground, he looked at Ron and said slowly, "I told you just now in Professor Lupine's office, Ron! Although you have many shortcomings, but , You are not the same as the guy behind you at all! You two have an essential difference, you will never betray your friends, we all believe in you, don't let everyone down."
"Yes, Ron, we all believe in you!" Hermione also put down her wand, her eyes were red and said, "Remember how we became friends? Remember in the first grade, you and Harry The moment you rescued me from the troll? At that time, you defeated that troll! Without you, I would have died long ago! If possible, I would also pay the price of my life for you."
Seeing what happened in front of him, Ron stood there pale, his face full of pain.
He was being led by Peter Pettigrew slowly back out of the foyer.
Ron's body was trembling uncontrollably, Peter was giving new orders in his mind, but Ron couldn't listen to a word, all he was thinking about were Harry, Ivan, and Hermione just now said those words.
He has done so many things that are sorry to everyone, but they still regard themselves as friends.
Ron trembled. He originally thought that he was an incomprehensible hero like Pettigrew Peter, but what he saw now, Peter was a humble, most cowardly wretch, the culprit of all unfortunate events, and I actually helped him and betrayed my friends.
Although still under the control of the Imperius Curse, Ron suddenly cried, crying more sadly than ever.
He suddenly realized that he was really a bastard, an unprecedented bastard!
Just like last year, he would rather trust a strange diary, an evil dark wizard, than his friends! (.)
