Corwin and Dumbledore watched as the parchment was rendered in ink and gradually turned into a map with a complex structure. Then dense numbers of people's names appeared on the map, and there were two corresponding dots next to each name.
's footprints.
Some of the footprints are walking like in cartoons, while others are staying in place.
"It's very interesting." Dumbledore held his glasses with his left hand and smiled while observing the map carefully: "Not only is this map interesting, but opening the password is also interesting."
After looking at it for a while, Dumbledore looked up and asked, "Where did this map come from?"
"The Weasley twins got it."
Coven replied with some concealment, after all, it cannot be said that the twins stole it from Filch's office.
Dumbledore laughed when he heard this: "Oh, it's them, they can always give people a little surprise."
"So..." Dumbledore turned to ask: "My child, what do you want me to see on this map?"
"That's right, sir." Kewen organized his words, and then made up a story and said, "You told me about Sirius at the dinner before. You know my memory."
As Dumbledore nodded, Coven continued: "During the holidays, I just received the news of Sirius's escape from prison, so I looked for relevant newspapers from that year to find out. If I remember correctly, Sirius Black was the one who killed
Peter Pettigrew’s murderer, right?”
Hearing this, Dumbledore seemed to have thought of something regrettable, and nodded slowly with some disappointment: "Ah, that's right. Although I am still skeptical about this, everyone else thinks so."
Corwin knew why Dumbledore looked like this.
Dumbledore, the 'master of absorbing spiritual thoughts', had learned from Sirius that the other party was not the murderer.
However, there was no evidence, and Sirius was too sad to defend himself back then.
Therefore, Dumbledore alone would have no way to prevent Sirius from being imprisoned.
The innocent Sirius spent twelve years in prison, and Dumbledore would naturally feel very sorry.
At this time, seeing that Dumbledore was a little distracted, Coven immediately continued: "The old newspapers from that year said that Peter Pettigrew was blown to death and only one finger was left, right?"
Dumbledore nodded slowly and subconsciously without saying anything.
"This is very interesting."
Ke Wen smiled slightly, and then said to Dumbledore, who looked at him in surprise: "Mr. Principal, please don't get me wrong, please listen to me."
"Ah... of course." Dumbledore knew clearly that Covin was not the kind of person to speak harshly.
"Look." Ke Wen spread his hands: "You know I am going to focus on 'Animal Transfiguration' this year, and then I thought of something because of this name."
As he spoke, Coven stretched out his wand and clicked on a name in the Marauder's Map.
Dumbledore subconsciously looked at the location pointed by Coven, and then his pupils suddenly shrank.
Holding his glasses again, he leaned over and carefully looked at the names on the Marauder's Map. Dumbledore couldn't help showing a look of astonishment.
"You read that right."
Coven raised his wand slightly, and then pointed a little at the name 'Peter Pettigrew' on the map: "I saw this name when the Weasley twins showed me the map one time the year before last."
"But I didn't know what the name meant at the time, so I never paid it any attention."
"But today you mentioned Sirius Black emphatically, so I thought of this name, and then I suddenly had some guesses."
Dumbledore seemed a little excited. After taking a deep breath, he said, "Please go on!"
"Peter Pettigrew." Coven clicked the map with his wand again: "Animal transformation, and the most critical point..."
In Dumbledore's expectation, Corwin moved his wand and finally clicked on Ron's name, and then said: "You may not know that Ron's pet rat Scabbers happens to be missing a toe."
Bang!
As soon as Kewen finished speaking, Dumbledore suddenly slapped his desk angrily, his face looked a little gloomy, and his eyes were fixed on the name "Peter Pettigrew" on the map.
After a long time, Dumbledore finally calmed down again. He slowly sat down looking a little tired, and then said, "I'm sorry, I'm a little rude."
Ke Wen returned the look of understanding.
With a sigh, Dumbledore thought for a while and then said: "Can you lend me the map for a few days first?"
"Of course." Kewen nodded.
"Thank you, son." Dumbledore whispered, "You always give us unexpected rewards."
Hearing this, Kewen said sincerely: "I am also very happy to be able to help you and the professors."
"Good boy."
Dumbledore's eyes were kind and he praised again.
…
…
After handing all the clues to Dumbledore, he doesn't have to worry about anything else.
The next focus of Kewen will be on ‘Animal Transfiguration’.
It's also a coincidence.
A few years ago, the professors were worried about his lack of ability, so they did not allow him to try to practice "animal transformation".
Last year, the professors thought the time had come, but there was some delay because of the basilisk incident.
Later, during the holidays, I had to practice the 'Mind Reading Mantra' and I couldn't spare any more energy.
It wasn't until school started that Kewen finally got rid of all disturbing factors and could finally start learning the 'Animal Transformation Technique'.
This is why he is eager to hand over all clues to Dumbledore as soon as possible.
He didn't want to have any unexpected situations that required his participation in the process of mastering the 'Animal Transformation Technique'.
Therefore, Ke Wen, who had nothing to do and felt relieved, began to take the first step of the "animal transformation technique".
First, he asked for a 'Mandrake leaf' from Professor Sprout, and then asked Zhang Qiu about the lunar date.
Zhang Qiu wrote a letter to his family and soon obtained the lunar calendar table, which he handed over to Ke Wen.
Next, Kewen began to wait.
He waited until the night of the full moon on the 15th day of the lunar calendar and began to hold the mandrake leaves in his mouth.
Until the full moon night on the 15th day of the next lunar calendar, Ke Wen cannot swallow the herb leaves or spit them out.
It is necessary to ensure that the herbal leaves stay in his mouth for a full month, otherwise he will have to start over.
This experience was somewhat painful for Kewen.
You can talk less, and you can be careful when drinking water, but you have to be careful when eating, which makes it a bit difficult to be a good person.
This situation resulted in Kewen not having enough food for many days in a row.
Even so, he almost swallowed the herb leaves many times.
