Black American Comics: Start with a Snap

Chapter 196 Sirius Black

With a sharp creaking sound, the shabby wooden door was slowly pushed open by Su Ze.

Entering the Magical Creatures Shop, the chaotic and pungent smells became more obvious. Su Ze frowned slightly and released the werewolf transformation skill.

The night was as dark as ink and the store was extremely dim. With the help of light coming from nowhere, Su Ze's night vision ability came in handy at this moment.

The cages were arranged in an orderly manner, almost filling the entire room.

Some of the strange animals in the cages were sleeping, while others were staring vigilantly at the uninvited guest who had broken in.

The first thing that caught his eye was the civet cats of various colors. They lay lazily in the cages, looking at Su Ze curiously. Some of them had their fur slightly ruffled, obviously sensing Su Ze's faint werewolf scent.

His eyes wandered around the cages in the shop, and more and more magical animals came into Su Ze's sight.

There were black-haired mice that were bigger than rabbits, snails that flickered in the night, cattails that had fallen into a deep sleep, and ravens with blinking eyes.

The room was filled with cages containing magical animals, making it seem extremely crowded. Su Ze did not see any magical animals with extremely destructive powers here. This was no wonder, after all, it was just a pet shop.

Although it is a store that sells magical creatures, the items sold here are basically those that are classified as harmless by the Ministry of Magic. Perhaps the only dangerous things here are those poisonous snails.

"I know you are here, Sirius Black." Suze began.

It was not easy to find Sirius Black in such a crowded room, and there was more than one room in the store.

If the other party really wants to hide, then he can turn into a dog and hide in the corner. Without destroying the cages, Su Ze will have no way to determine the other party's exact location, so Su Ze decided to let the other party show up on his own initiative.

"I know very well that you can hear me. I am not your enemy. I am now a professor of Muggle Studies at Hogwarts. Harry is in danger. I need you to tell me about the Azkaban breakout."

After he finished speaking, Su Ze began to wait in silence.

It was quiet all around, with only the breathing sounds of the magical animals.

Nothing responded to Su Ze's words, only those magical animals kept looking at Su Ze, not knowing what the other party was going to do.

"Come out, let's talk."

Su Ze tried his best to make his tone sound better.

As a prisoner of Azkaban who had just escaped and been tortured for more than ten years, no one could guarantee what Sirius Black's mental state was like now.

At this time, a strange Oriental man suddenly came to the door, and he obviously carried the smell of a werewolf. In this situation, no one else could come out on their own initiative, let alone Sirius Black.

Su Ze was also very clear about this, so he chose to start with the aspect that the other party was most concerned about at the moment, hoping that this would gain Sirius' trust.

"Dumbledore said that if you had not been imprisoned in Azkaban, you would have become Harry's godfather. Yes, I have heard a lot about you from Dumbledore."

Su Ze looked around and walked deeper into the room.

"Do you know where I first learned about your existence? You may not believe it, but I learned about it from a map that was permanently enchanted. It was kept in Filch's office."

"The Plunderers, this is the name of the team you formed when you were studying at Hogwarts, right? You were able to create such a magical map when you were students. I have to say that you are really talented."

"Because of this map, I became extremely curious about the four of you, so I wanted to know more about you. From this, I learned your real names and your past."

The footsteps made a sound on the wooden floor, and Su Ze continued speaking as if he was talking to himself or to someone.

".In the report of that year, you betrayed the Order of the Phoenix, killed Peter Pettigrew with your own hands, and caused the residence of James Potter and Lily to be exposed, causing them to be killed by Voldemort."

Su Ze changed the subject.

"But I believe that these things were not done by you, not because I know you very well, but because I saw Peter Pettigrew's name on the map."

His eyes flickered with an inexplicable light in the night, and Su Ze's gaze kept sweeping over the cages around him without stopping to speak.

"After getting the map, I knew very well that the map would never be wrong, and it would not show a dead person out of thin air."

The words fell.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew from behind.

Su Ze turned around suddenly, but found that there was no one behind him. Only the door in the distance moved slightly, and the night wind came in from the gap.

Staring quietly at the gate, some magical animals in the cages stood up one after another. They all gathered at the edge of the cage and looked at Su Ze's position with their sharp eyes.

Taking a deep breath, Su Ze slowly withdrew his gaze and turned his head back.

What he saw was a brown magic wand pointing at his chest.

"who are you?"

The owner of the wand was a witch wearing thick glasses and a loose nightgown. She looked at the stranger in front of her with vigilance.

"How did you get in?"

Looking at the witch who was in a state of panic, Su Ze felt a little embarrassed. He really didn't expect that he would be found by the owner of the Magical Creatures Shop before he found Sirius Black. Who would have thought that the owner would live in the shop and even cast a soundproofing spell on his house? Maybe he didn't want to be disturbed by the magical creatures downstairs, but this soundproofing spell prevented Su Ze from hearing her presence.

It must be that I startled the other party when I broke the door lock.

"Don't get excited, ma'am." Suze raised his hands to indicate that he had no intention of hurting anyone. "I'm Kaia Black, a professor at Hogwarts. You should have heard of me."

As the largest commercial street in the British wizarding world, the shop owners here naturally have some knowledge of Hogwarts.

Su Ze has been in Hogwarts for quite some time, and many people know of his existence. After all, a wizard professor from the East can easily become a topic of conversation after dinner.

However, the owner of the Magical Creatures Shop obviously did not let down his guard because of Su Ze's answer. The witch looked Su Ze up and down, and her tone was a little stiff.

"Do you think that telling me your identity can explain why a professor would break into my store in the middle of the night?"

Seeing that the other party had no intention of putting down his wand, Su Ze shrugged his shoulders.

"You may not believe it, but I came here to find someone."

"Find someone?"

The witch seemed to have heard some huge joke. She stared at Su Ze with her eyes fixed, and the wand in her hand was ready to attack.

"There are many people who come to me to look for rare and magical animals, but you are the first one looking for someone. Who do you want to find?"

"Look for him."

Su Ze didn't explain anything, but just silently pointed behind the witch.

Hearing this, the witch looked at Su Ze's movements and the direction he was looking, still confused in her heart, when she suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps behind her.

A chill suddenly crept up her back, giving her goose bumps all over her body.

The witch boss pointed her wand at Su Ze without moving her hand. She quickly turned her head to look behind her, only to see a ragged, dishevelled man standing upright in the shadows not far away.

The man looked very thin. Long-term hunger had caused his face to be pale and his body was just skin and bones. His hair was extremely dirty and looked like it had not been taken care of for a long time. He was wearing a tattered old clothes and looked like a scavenger.

The only difference was that the man's eyes were extremely bright and deep.

And his eyes were fixed on Su Ze.

The witch's eyes slowly moved back and forth between the two men. She was stunned and didn't know what to do next.

"You are finally willing to show up, Sirius Black." Su Ze smiled. Sure enough, the other party still couldn't let go of Harry Potter.

"Sirius Black!?"

Before Sirius could say anything, the witch boss's expression changed instantly.

No wonder she felt that this man looked familiar from the beginning. After Su Ze spoke, she suddenly remembered the other party's identity. Wasn't this guy the Sirius Black who caused the deaths of twelve Muggles back then?

"Shouldn't you be in Azkaban?"

The witch's voice was trembling a little, and she looked at Sirius as if she had seen a ghost.

"Please don't get excited, ma'am." Su Ze raised his hand to comfort the witch boss and said, "I know the current situation is a little hard to accept, but I can explain it."

"you"

The witch was about to say something, but she noticed that Su Ze had raised the wand in his hand.

The next moment, an extremely fast electric current instantly enveloped her entire body, paralyzing her entire body and turning her head into an afro.

The witch opened her mouth and exhaled a puff of black smoke, then fell straight to the ground.

After successfully launching a sneak attack and knocking the other party unconscious, Su Ze apologized to her in his heart. Then, he noticed the gaze of Sirius Black opposite him.

"how."

Su Ze raised his head.

"Do you have a better idea?"

Sirius didn't say much about this. He just slowly walked out of the shadows, silently came to the side of the witch, squatted down and picked up her wand.

After doing all this, he spoke in a hoarse voice.

"You just said."

"Your name is Kaia Black?"
