Sirius massaged his brother's belly with his fingertips and asked curiously, "Did you find out during the years I was in prison?"

He knew Lupin very well, and it was he who didn't notice at first.

But after Harry's hint, he was certain that Lupin must know some clues about the Deathly Hallows.

Lupin glanced at Draco, but after another look at Sirius, he spoke.

"Sirius, after listening to the story of the three brothers, didn't you find that there was an item that fits the description in it?"

"A cloak which renders a person truly and completely invisible, permanently and continuously, and unbreakable by any spell."

Sirius took a deep breath. "You mean James's—"

Lupin nodded. "We are so familiar with James's invisibility cloak that we never think about how good it is. I have never heard of another one as reliable as James's. We have never been discovered wearing it -"

Sirius smiled, "Of course not - we're invisible when we put it on, Remus!"

"I still feel bad. After learning Animagus, we rarely use it."

Lupin made a playful face, "This is my fault. You had to turn into animals to keep me company."

"It's incredible that I never noticed it before."

"The invisibility cloak will become less effective after being worn for a long time, or it may be penetrated by a spell and leave holes. This is common sense."

"And according to James, it was passed down from his grandfather's grandfather."

"But it should have become a rag, but it is still perfect!"

Sirius suddenly thought of something. He wanted to pat the table, but because of his brother on his thigh, he could only clench his fist and said, "I finally know why Dumbledore asked James to borrow the invisibility cloak. It's easy to be invisible to a wizard like Dumbledore, but if it's the Deathly Hallows, it makes sense!"

"Dumbledore must know the secret of the Deathly Hallows!"

He quickly looked at Harry, "Harry! Where's the Invisibility Cloak? Did Dumbledore return it to you?"

If Dumbledore did not return the Invisibility Cloak, it means that Dumbledore cannot be told about the Resurrection Stone.

I can only find a chance to tell Bagir secretly.

Chapter 155

Harry thought Sirius's question was a little strange at first.

But since he had once doubted Dumbledore, he understood Sirius's meaning the next moment.

In fact, he thought of more.

"So the Invisibility Cloak was with Dumbledore the night my parents died!" He ignored the surprise in the others' eyes, stood up, and walked around the room absentmindedly, "He must have suspected it was the third Deathly Hallow! Mr. Lovegood said that Ignotus Peverell was buried in Godric's Hollow."

“And our family is there too!”

"He is my ancestor! I am descended from the third brother! It all makes sense!"

Sirius was a little confused, "I was just asking you about the cloak. But seeing that you know so much about it, it should have been returned to you."

"Yes! I think we should contact him as soon as possible. Voldemort can already summon the undead!" Harry stopped and stopped right behind Ron. He put his hands on him and exerted force.

Ron cried out in pain, like a puppy whose tail was stepped on.

Harry then let go, "I'm sorry, Ron."

Ron moved his shoulders and said, "You know what, it doesn't hurt at all now. It even feels a little sore."

As he said this, he pulled Harry's hand and asked Harry to give him another blow.

Draco couldn't stand it any longer. "That's enough! Pott! Weasley is making trouble, and you want to join him?"

"Have you..." His face turned pale, "never thought of a possibility? Dumbledore also contributed to the death of your parents. He may not have done it on purpose, but he is not innocent either."

"Think about it, if the cloak that can make oneself invisible is at home, even if Voldemort comes to the door, can't they use the cloak to escape?"

Sirius swallowed, his expression grim, "But it just so happens that it's been borrowed."

However, he shook his head the next second, "With the Fidelius Charm, the invisibility cloak is not necessary. They can even throw away their wands."

"It's very reliable indeed. When I visited James at his house, he even locked Lily's wand in a cupboard as a joke and threw his own wand far away."

Hearing this, Harry, Ron, and Draco immediately raised questions.

"What is the Fidelius Mantra?" x2

"what is that?"

After all, this is too outrageous.

She did this even though she knew Voldemort might attack her in person. What's even more outrageous is that Harry's mother didn't seem to be angry.

Lupin cleared his throat. "A very complex spell involving the enchantment of a secret within the soul of a living being."

"The secret is hidden in the heart of the chosen person, or the secret keeper, and it will never be discovered - unless, of course, the secret keeper deliberately reveals it. As long as the secret keeper refuses to speak, Voldemort will never find them even if he turns Godric's Village upside down."

"He couldn't find it even if he squashed his nose against the glass window outside the Potters' living room!"

"Ugh I forgot, Voldemort doesn't have a nose!"

No one laughed at the joke.

Sirius' expression grew even darker, and he might have even burst into tears if it weren't for his brother sleeping on his lap.

Draco breathed a sigh of relief. He was not angry because his deduction was overturned. On the contrary, he was greatly relieved. He didn't know about the existence of Basil, and he had already regarded Dumbledore and his unreliable uncle as the backers of the Malfoy family.

Harry was the same. He was also glad that Dumbledore was a good man, and for this reason he temporarily forgot to ask why the Potters were found by Voldemort - with such tight defenses. Why didn't he ask Dumbledore to be the secret keeper.

Only Ron stroked his chin. He felt that the word "secret keeper" sounded familiar.

".The Dark Lord is so powerful and terrifying. It was Sirius who insisted that I be the secret keeper."

The words of Peter Pettigrew after taking the truth serum in the newspaper came to his mind.

Ron tapped the table, "Ahaha! (Kreacher glared at Ron fiercely, then quickly looked to see if Regulus was still asleep) I remember!"

"Peter Pettigrew is the Secret Keeper, right!"

"He gave Voldemort the Potters' address!"

Sirius picked up Regulus and put him in Kreacher's arms, motioning for Kreacher to leave. After Kreacher left, he let out a long sigh.

He made a whimpering sound similar to that of a wild dog protecting its food. After a while, he said, "Actually, I was the secret keeper in the beginning."

"Everyone thought it should be Dumbledore. But James and I vetoed it."

"Because of family reasons, as a member of the Order of the Phoenix, I cannot take the initiative to fight against Voldemort and his followers."

"I was just mad with idleness. James noticed that."

"And then proposed that the Secret-Keeper choose me."

"I agreed despite my own limitations. No one else objected."

"They think that since I always stay at the headquarters and never go out, I am also a good candidate for keeping secrets. I will not betray you either."

"My level of Occlumency is passable."

"but--"

When he said this, Sirius buried his head in his hands, fell into Lupin's arms, and sobbed.

Lupin patted his back gently as if to comfort him, and he continued on behalf of Sirius: "Sirius has come up with another good idea. (Sirius cried again: I can't sit still!) Why not choose Peter as the secret keeper?"

"He's timid, stupid, and can't accomplish anything. Learning Animagus is almost the greatest achievement of his life. It just so happens that he can also turn into a mouse, so no one can find him."

"No one would have thought that the Secret-Keeper would choose a character as insignificant and cowardly as him."

"So Sirius hid it from everyone and made a suggestion to James and Lily - to replace the secret keeper with Peter."

"I'm such an idiot!" Sirius continued to wail.

Draco nodded without hesitation.

He had read the newspapers. Peter Pettigrew's mother was a weak spot and was not protected.

It's crazy to let someone with such a weak spot be the secret keeper.

Might as well choose Lupin.

The Death Eaters and even Voldemort looked down on werewolves. Even someone as useful and hardworking as Fenir was not recognized and could not be branded with the Dark Mark.

Putting themselves in his shoes, they would not think that Lupin was the secret keeper.

And Lupin's father died a long time ago.

It was no secret that Lupin was a werewolf in the Death Eater family.

After his father's death, Draco did not just cry. In order to grow up as quickly as possible, he often visited Malfoy's secret room.

There is a lot of information in it that can only be seen by those of Malfoy's bloodline.

What's more, Lupin's father was not an unknown person.

It was even in the textbooks.

When it comes to Boggart, we can’t avoid these three famous Boggarts:

Old Boggle of Canterbury: Believed by local Muggles to be a crazed, man-eating hermit living in a cave, but actually a tiny Boggart who knows how to put echoes to good use.

Hammer Boggart of Old London: A homicidal boggart that haunts the back streets of 19th century London can be transformed into a hamster with a simple spell.

and the screaming monster of Stella Starley at the end.

This screaming monster originally came from Scotland and made a living by terrorizing local Muggles. It would transform into a huge black figure with glowing white eyes, but was eventually imprisoned in a matchbox by Lyall Lupin of the Ministry of Magic.

This Lyall Lupin is Remus Lupin's father.

At the age of 35, he became the director of an outlier office.

He also oversees three other offices: the Werewolf Capture Program, the Werewolf Registry, and the Werewolf Support Services Division.

Greyback's attack on Remus Lupin was not at all an offense to him because of his work-related contact with werewolves.

It was because the Death Eaters needed Lyall Lupin, a promising Ministry official, to submit to them, and he refused.

The death of Lyall Lupin and his wife Hope Lupin was not due to illness, but to an obscure curse.

It was that old devil Antonin Dolokhov who did it.

The fact that Lupin had turned into a werewolf had already offended Lyall Lupin badly. The Death Eaters would naturally not allow a wizard who was hostile to them, who did not have a long bloodline like the Weasleys and was related to them by marriage, and who had a bright future in the Ministry of Magic to survive.

While Draco was brainstorming in his mind, Harry and Ron did not think Sirius was stupid like Draco did.

Gryffindor's adventurous genes made them share the same train of thought as Sirius, who planned the secret-keeper replacement plan more than a decade ago.

And I was very moved.

Ron wiped his tears, "This is all Peter Pettigrew's problem! He can refuse!"

Harry's eyes were red. "If my father were still alive, he would definitely not think so. It is not up to you to decide whether to change the secret keeper or not."

"My parents decided after discussing it with you."

"And it was Voldemort who did the killing. What does that have to do with you?"

Sirius whimpered, leaving Lupin's arms and standing up.

He should cheer up now and tell Dumbledore and Balzir about the Resurrection Stone in order to defeat Voldemort.

"I'll write the letter now!"

Harry smiled with relief, looking at Sirius's wet beard, "But you have to tidy yourself up first."

-

"But you have to tidy yourself up first."

Faced with the messy hall, Alice was rarely shy and wanted to help clean it up.

But Basil reminded Alice to pay attention to herself.

The black hair became even more messy, the robe on her body turned into rags, and the newly put on white stockings were wet and had holes in them.

But in fact, Bagir is quietly reflecting everything in the dream into reality.

There are two states of dreams created by Bagir.

For him, everything that happens in the dream will not be completely reflected in reality. He will only feel happy but will not lose his vitality.
