The Black Who Could Give Everything

Wizet said, "Sirius Black's target shouldn't be Harry... or rather, his primary target shouldn't be Harry himself."

"If his primary target was Harry, then since he was able to sneak into Hogwarts undetected, there was absolutely no need for him to expose himself immediately."

"He could have continued to hide, gradually finding out Harry's whereabouts, and then, at the right moment, deliver a fatal blow to Harry."

"I don't think he's an impatient person. After all, he's been in Azkaban for so long, not only enduring the effects of the Dementor but also managing to escape..."

"And they escaped without alerting the Dementor or their guards... Headmaster Dumbledore, how credible is the Daily Prophet's report?"

Dumbledore knew what Wizet wanted to ask. "At least regarding the safety of Azkaban, the Daily Prophet's reports can still be trusted."

"For most wizards, the impact of losing their wand is enormous, let alone the chance of escaping silently... unless someone is acting as an inside agent."

"Or perhaps through some external force, they forcibly break through the Dementor ' blockade, creating a greater commotion, thereby allowing the prisoners to escape..."

"However, judging from Cornelius Fudge's level of urgency..." he sighed deeply, "The possibility of an 'insider' should have been ruled out."

Wizet rubbed her thumb and forefinger together. "Thinking about it this way... it's quite intriguing what Sirius Black's primary objective is..."

"The Fat Lady wouldn't let him into the Common Room, but he still insisted on barging in, which shows that this 'primary target' was a higher priority than whether he was exposed."

"Could we think of it this way: if he obtains this 'primary objective,' it will allow him to better achieve some other goal? For example... better evade the Dementor ' pursuit?"

"After all, his whereabouts are still exposed from time to time... In my opinion, Sirius Black, who has already been exposed, actually has two paths to take."

"He will either choose to flee England and try to go to other countries, continuing to be hunted indefinitely... or he will make thorough preparations and try to infiltrate Hogwarts once again."

"In my opinion, there is perhaps only one possibility..." Dumbledore exhaled, "Sirius Black will come back... he will definitely come back!"

Wizet blinked. "Oh?"

"The members of the Black Family ..." Dumbledore sighed, "Are often of unwavering will, capable of sacrificing everything for something...including their lives!"

"They may support different goals, but the methods they ultimately take are often strikingly similar, and that's the Black Family."

"Since you mentioned the 'primary objective,' it means that he came with that objective in mind. One exposure won't make him back down,"

Even if he is controlled by Dementor... even if he is about to be executed by Dementor... he will not back down in the slightest...

"Even if the Dementor are stealing his soul, as long as he can still move, he will make a final struggle to get the 'first target'!"

Thinking about this, Dumbledore suddenly realized something.

Knowing the personalities of the Black Family members, he didn't investigate the real reason why Sirius Black betrayed them.

Perhaps... something went wrong in the process, which led to this series of tragedies?

While Dumbledore in thought, Wizet was also pondering the question of Sirius Black.

Since Dumbledore was so certain that Sirius Black would return to Hogwarts, he had no choice but to take precautions.

To avoid Sirius Black causing any absolutely unnecessary accidents when he reappears at Hogwarts.

"We really need to take the initiative to find Sirius Black..."

"I really do need to meet with Sirius Black..."

At this point, Wizet and Dumbledore said similar things.

"You seem to have a way?" Dumbledore smiled upon hearing Wizet's words. "Can that map show such a large area?"

"There's no way..." Wizet shook his head, "But I have a larger map that shows Hogwarts and the surrounding area."

"If Sirius Black is still lurking around Hogwarts, we should be able to find his trail by modifying that map."

Dumbledore asked with some curiosity, "Is it something left to you by the Previous Guardian?"

"That's right!" Wizet. "It's something she left behind."

The "larger map" he mentioned was the "Map Chamber" that Serena Pendragon had once told him about.

Last school year, he went to the Map Chamber several times;

Perhaps in order to deal with the Isaiah Society, he found many traces of the modifications in the Map Chamber, and many of the original items must have been moved away.

Of all the things that were preserved, the one that amazed him and Luna the most was that incredibly huge map.

The map was made up of starlight. With each step you took, faint starlight followed you, while brighter starlight converged to form the outlines of various terrains.

It includes not only Hogwarts Castle, but also other castles and villages in the surrounding area, as well as the outlines of the surrounding mountains, hills, rivers and other terrain features;

In some ways, the giant Starlight Map in the Map Chamber is actually quite similar to the Marauder's Map;

That's why Wizet wanted to modify it to give it a function similar to Marauder's Map.

Wizet continued, "But the modification will take some time, and I can't give you a specific timeframe yet."

"Of course." Dumbledore nodded. "I think Sirius Black won't be infiltrating anytime soon..."

"Actually, "Wizet said, "We could make some gadgets to protect ourselves from Sirius Black, like we made the Parseltongue Whistle."

Dumbledore immediately grasped the principle. "Using your map? Plus... the connection between 'spirit' and 'soul'?"

"That's right!" Wizet nodded. "Of course, the Mandrake leaves also played a crucial role."

"Suddenly I feel..." Dumbledore let out a long breath, "... a lot more relaxed..."

"Then you shouldn't drink strong tea. A good night's sleep is actually a good way to relax." Wizet stood up. "Headmaster Dumbledore, I should go back and rest. You should rest early too!"

"Of course!" Dumbledore stood up, his eyes filled with endless emotion and remembrance;

He said something remarkably similar; a long, long time ago, someone else had said the same thing to him...
