Chapter 205 Flyweight Boxing Champion
As the night deepened and the dew grew heavy, all was silent, with only a few embers of the unburnt fire casting a faint glow.
Sir Cadogan was awakened from his sleep by the sound of footsteps and looked with sleepy eyes at the man standing in front of the portrait.
The man was very thin, with sunken eyes, pale skin taut over his bone, and filthy, disheveled hair hanging down to his elbows, looking like a corpse that had just crawled out of a graveyard.
"Halt, password, you dog," Sir Cadogan grunted.
Sirius Black visibly paused for a moment, then pulled out a piece of parchment and began to read it aloud, word by word.
"Playboy."
"No! You scoundrel!"
"You filthy bastard dog."
"No! You filthy bastard dog!"
"You despicable bastard!"
"That's a convincing fabrication!" Sir Cadogan roared. "You vile little bastard!"
Sirius grinned maliciously, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, then raised the knife in his hand, seemingly intending to replicate the tragedy of the Fat Lady.
But Sir Cadogan was undeterred. In the portrait, he roared, "I'll put this on you, you scoundrel! You rogue! Fight Lord Cadogan to the death!"
However, Sirius did not angrily swing his knife; instead, he read out the last password on the parchment.
"Strange body and grotesque skin".
"Oh, the password is correct." Sir Cadogan, like a firecracker that had gone flat, reluctantly revealed the hole hidden behind the portrait.
"Cowardly coward, you dare not fight Lord Cadogan!" Sir Cadogan said, as his portrait swayed and moved forward.
A few seconds later, a circular hole appeared in the wall, and Sirius bent down and crawled inside.
The Gryffindor Tower, the comfortable circular common room—all were places Sirius Black dreamed of, but he didn't linger; he went straight to the boys' dormitory.
Sirius walked through the boys' dormitory with practiced ease and quickly found his destination.
He gently pushed open the dormitory door, carefully entered the dormitory, and scanned the five beds with velvet curtains hanging from them one by one in the moonlight outside the window.
Sirius was momentarily stunned by Harry's sleeping profile; it was as if he were seeing James from his school days again, as if his best friend James were still alive.
After a while, Sirius reluctantly looked away and tiptoed to Ron's window. Sirius grinned again, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth that looked particularly irritating.
Stab it!
The sharp blade sliced through the velvet curtain, moonlight poured down, and Sirius's raised blade gleamed with a chilling light.
Ron groggily opened his eyes in his sleep and vaguely saw a tall, thin figure standing in front of the window, along with a gleaming blade!
"Ah! —! No! —!" Ron exclaimed in surprise.
The others in the dormitory were suddenly awakened. They got up one after another. The darkness made Harry and the others lose their bearings, and they groped around for their tents.
The budding demolition genius, Seamus Finnigan, rang out from the other side of the dormitory, mumbling, "What's going on?"
Immediately afterwards, Neville Longbottom and Dean Thomas's voices rang out one after the other.
"What's wrong?"
"Ron, what's wrong?"
Harry and the others scrambled out of bed, when suddenly they heard the dormitory door slam shut, followed by the lights coming on. Dean...
Thomas turned on the light.
Ron sat on the bed, one side of the curtain had been torn off, and his face showed extreme fear.
"Black! Sirius Black! With a knife!"
Harry hurriedly ran towards the dormitory door. They ran down the stairs, waking up the entire boys' dormitory. Sleepy voices kept ringing out behind them.
However, Harry never saw Sirius Black; all he saw was a messy common room.
Just hours earlier, the Gryffindor students were here celebrating their victory over Ravenclaw.
By this time, Sirius Black had already left the Gryffindor Tower, and the portrait of Sir Cadogan was getting further and further away from him.
In the portrait, Sir Cadogan continued to hurl insults, jumping up and down as he roared, "Come back! Cowardly cowards! Come back and fight Sir Cadogan to the death!"
Sirius's hurried footsteps echoed in the empty corridor. He looked even more flustered than Ron, his deep-set eyes filled with panic.
Damn it! Where did that damn rat go?! Why isn't it in the boys' dormitory?!
Panicked, Sirius ran down the long corridor, then down the stairs, stopping on the seventh-floor landing. He breathlessly spoke the command to Grammer Perks' portrait.
"sea snake."
The portrait of Grammor Percussion immediately moves forward, revealing a secret passage hidden behind it, which leads to a side room in the foyer.
Through this little-known secret passage, Sirius could go directly from the seventh-floor platform to the foyer and leave the castle as quickly as possible.
The most urgent thing right now is to escape the castle and return to a safe hiding place immediately. Finding Peter Pettigrew's whereabouts is something to do after we're out of danger.
Before long, Sirius, who had been hurrying downstairs, peeked out from the side room of the foyer. The quiet foyer was as dark as when he had come in; he saw no one and heard no sound.
Sirius Black slipped out of the side room, pushed open the oak door, and as soon as the castle gate cracked open a crack, he eagerly squeezed out.
Before Sirius could even step down the stone steps at the castle entrance, a strangely familiar voice rang out beside him.
"Hey, long time no see, Sirius!"
Sirius looked over in disbelief, and sure enough, there it was—a familiar voice and a familiar figure: Belvina. She was standing at the bottom of the stone steps, her smile radiant.
Logically speaking, Sirius should be happy that he escaped. Even if he couldn't cover for his family, he could at least be lenient and let him go.
But Sirius Black wasn't happy at all. He didn't understand Belvina at all and had no idea what she was going to do.
Just then, a familiar voice rang out again, and Remus Lupin emerged through the crack in the oak door.
He said, "Long time no see, Big Foot."
Sirius Black suddenly turned around, looking excitedly at his old friend who had suddenly appeared behind him.
"Moonface," Sirius said in a trembling voice.
"Where is he? Have you found him?" Lupin asked anxiously, knowing that Sirius had broken into the castle for Peter Pettigrew.
Sirius's sunken eyes were fixed on Lupin's face, and his dry, cracked lips opened and closed, but no sound came out.
I already know the matter—
Lupin couldn't reveal that he already knew Peter Pettigrew was still alive; his mouth opened and closed, but he couldn't utter a single syllable.
Sirius and Lupin both looked down at Belvina on the stone steps. Belvina was holding up her wand, the acacia wand pointing at Lupin, who was about to reveal the truth.
"Gentlemen, now is not the time for reminiscing," Belvina said as she climbed the steps.
Sirius reacted quickly; he realized that Lupin believed in him, and at the same time, he knew he couldn't fall into Belvina's hands!
Although he didn't know what outrageous things Belvina was capable of, Sirius's survival instinct kept loudly reminding him:
Run! Run now or it will be too late!
Since he was already in the wrong place, Sirius Black threw the knife in his hand.
A throwing knife could not possibly harm a wizard wielding a wand, let alone the wizard being attacked, Belvina.
Taking advantage of the moment he threw the throwing knife, Sirius immediately transformed into his Animagus form. The black dog stomped down the stone steps and ran towards the Forbidden Forest in the distance, its four paws flying.
Belvina casually deflected the throwing knife, pointed her acacia wand at the charging black dog, and whispered, "Come back here!"
Just as the big black dog, which had been running at full speed, suddenly floated up, as if it had been lifted up by an invisible hand.
Immediately afterwards, Belvina waved her wand, and the large black dog, which had been suspended in mid-air, was sent flying back. Just how fast had he been running away?
The speed at which it flies back is how fast.
The large black dog, which had been flying backward, crashed heavily onto the open ground below the stone steps, then reverted to human form and lay on its back on the ground.
Belvina walked closer, raised her foot and stepped on Sirius's chest, her beautiful face once again displaying an incredibly radiant smile.
She smiled and said, "Long time no see, Sirius, my brother."
Sirius, unable to break free from being stepped on, said helplessly, "Long time no see, Belvina, my sister."
Belvina was still laughing. As she laughed, she took her watch off her wrist and waved it in front of Sirius.
She then asked, "Does this watch look familiar?"
Of course it looks familiar!
The ladies' watch with its pure white luster was originally a gift from Sirius Black to make up for Belvina's regret of not receiving a watch when she came of age.
Sirius laughed, a hideous and terrifying laugh. He said, "What do you want to do, my dear sister? Are you going to use me to claim credit, or my corpse?"
Which one do you think I should choose?
"The latter, the latter is better. I never want to go back to Azkaban."
As he spoke, Sirius shuddered. Although he had escaped from Azkaban, the horrors of that place still affected him constantly.
"So you don't like Azkaban!" Belvina said. "You spent twelve years in there; I thought you'd fallen in love with a Dementors by now!"
boom!
A delicate pink fist slammed heavily into Sirius's bony, towering face, and Belvina winced in pain as she shook her hand away.
To Lupin's utter astonishment, Belvina wore the ladies' watch on her wrist like a brass knuckles, and she even managed to smile at Lupin when he tried to stop her.
She laughed and said, "I've always wanted to try this. Do you want to, Moon Face?"
Under the utterly shocked and heartbroken gaze of Bigfoot, Moonface, in the noble spirit of sacrificing his friend rather than himself, silently took two steps back.
Belvina then grabbed Sirius by the collar, raised her fist, and her watch gleamed in the moonlight.
"That punch was from Regulus, you bastard brother who just walked away."
boom!
The fist landed on Sirius's face again, the metal watch slicing across his gaunt cheek and chapped lips.
"This punch is from your father, you unfilial son who abandoned your family."
boom!
Sirius's face looked like a paint shop had opened, with hot blood oozing from his mouth and nose.
"This punch was from your mother, you ungrateful son who has disgraced the family."
boom!
Sirius tilted his head to the side, spitting out a tooth mixed with blood, accompanied by a few coughs.
Sirius grinned, his mouthful of yellow teeth now stained red with blood.
He mumbled, "I don't consider them family, and I don't think I've wronged them."
Belvina raised her fist again, her expensive ladies' watch stained with blood, the bright red blood including Sirius Black's.
There are also some belonging to Belvina herself.
The lady's watch slashed Sirius's cheek, and also left cuts on Belvina's right fingers and knuckles.
"Who's your family? James Potter?" Belvina said coldly. "He's dead, indirectly killed by your arrogance!"
As he spoke, he delivered another heavy punch to Sirius's blood-soaked, skull-like face.
