Chapter 1063 Padfoot, Moony Face, and the Weasley Twins

Hogwarts, an office located in the corner of the second floor of the castle.

Last year, this place was still an idle empty classroom, but with the expansion of Hogwarts' faculty and staff, it was requisitioned by Sirius Black as his personal office - just like Professor McGonagall's office, Black's

The bedroom is just behind the office.

Compared to the gloomy and dilapidated old Black family house, Sirius preferred to call this place "home".

"Okay, relax, I'm not Professor McGonagall -"

Sirius said, walking around the room and finding a kettle and several tea sets.

"Well, would you like a cup of tea? I have secretly hidden some good things, but I promised Professor Dumbledore that I will not introduce you to things that are not suitable for your age to try - Remus, what do you want?

?Tea or coffee, or I'll get some pumpkin juice."

"Just plain water, Sirius."

Lupine smiled and shook his head, watching Sirius Black busy in the office.

I have to say that Sirius looks much better now than when he just returned from Azkaban.

At least when he said the suggestion "Go catch Padfoot tonight, the successor of Moon Face", Lupine could see the shadow of the demon king in the past in his eager black eyes - he finally began to get rid of the troubles in the past.

, and gradually came out.

Of course, part of the reason why Lupine agreed to Sirius's "joint hunting" plan lay in tonight's "prey".

"By the way, don't stand at the door. Put your things on the table and sit down."

Lupine said easily, smiling at the Weasley twins who were standing warily by the door.

"If you say that Arthur's sons are all well-behaved guys, I would be surprised. Your father was also the castle administrator's number one target when he was in Gryffindor - getting some food in the kitchen is nothing.

It’s originally the welfare of Hogwarts students.”

"Uh, oh, okay. Professor Lupin."

George and Fred looked at each other and sat down on the sofa in the room with some restraint.

On the other side, Sirius Black finally found the tea bag. He tapped the kettle with his wand, and a burst of steam suddenly spurted out from the spout.

"Anyway, let's get to the point quickly."

Sirius laughed happily and directed the kettle to fill the teacups respectively.

"When did you find that map and how did you figure it out? But as far as I know, this thing should have been placed in the pile of contraband that Filch collected. I thought it was thrown away before.

By the way, do you think this magic map is useful?"

Fred and George were stunned, and they suppressed all the explanations they had planned.

Through the faint smoke rising from the tea cup, Sirius Black's eyes sparkled.

"What, what map...Professor Black."

Fred Weasley laughed dryly, trying to seize the last bit of luck.

"Oh, the parchment is flying -"

Sirius Black grinned and tapped his wand lightly.

Immediately afterwards, a small piece of old blank parchment jumped out of Fred's pocket.

Before George and Fred could react - in fact, they were so nervous that they were almost stupid - Lupine stretched out his hand and gently caught the parchment thrown high in the air, his slender fingers

The edges of the old parchment were rubbed, as if seeing an old friend.

Lupine turned his head and exchanged glances with Sirius, with a strange and mysterious expression on his face.

"This is just a piece of... old parchment..." George Weasley said in a weak voice.

"Hmm? Really? Do you like to call it 'shabby parchment'?"

Sirius shrugged noncommittally and scratched his hair in distress.

"I thought the Marauder's Map would be a better name? Remus, I'd say it's too common a name."

As he spoke, his wand lightly touched the parchment.

The parchment folded into a small piece was quickly unfolded, and thin ink lines like a spider web began to spread outward from the place where the wand touched. These lines merged with each other, crossed each other, and extended to every corner of the parchment. In the blink of an eye,

The time turned into an exquisite map.

Immediately afterwards, writing began to appear on the top of the parchment, and several lines of green cursive text appeared clearly.

"Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs"

"Gentlemen who are here to help the makers of magical mischief."

"Introducing"

"[Marauder's Map]"

This map details all the details of Hogwarts Castle and various locations.

But the real wow factor is the tiny dots of ink that move along the map.

Each ink dot is marked with a name in tiny letters, the ghost's name, and Mrs. Norris's name are all on top, and in the office at the end of the corridor on the second floor of the castle, George Weasley, Frey

De Weasley's ink dots were obediently motionless, and opposite them were Sirius Black and Remus Lupin, two ink dots that looked slightly different - they seemed to be slightly larger.

.

"How do you know... uh, the Marauder's Map?"

Fred's body strength seemed to have been drained, and he said with some despair.

And George wasn't much better. Everyone got the stolen goods. This may be their biggest failure in history.

You know, the one sitting across from me is the castle administrator and transfiguration professor, and the other is the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

"Oh, because this is what we did when we were students."

Professor Lupine said, handing George a cup of tea and smiling gently.

"This world is a strange place, isn't it? Stop scaring these two kids, Padfoot."

"So, let me introduce myself—I, Padfoot."

Sirius Black patted Lupine on the shoulder and pointed his wand at the green line at the top of the map.

"As for Professor Lupine, his nickname when he was a student was Moon Face. Okay, now you can answer us, how did you get this Marauder's Map and how did you tinker with it? Of course, the most important thing is,

How did you feel after using it before?!"

"Uh, eh?! This, this is what you drew?!"

George was stunned for half a second, his eyes lingering on the faces of the two professors.

Finally, under Professor Luping's gentle smile, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief and took a sip of tea to calm down.

In the past four years, he and Fred had praised the authors of the activity map more than once. The makers of this magical map, which had been designed to help a new generation of rule-breakers from the beginning, could be said to be the Weasley twins.

The number one "school idol" that brothers most want to meet.

Although this "fan meeting" is a bit unexpected now, after a brief period of hesitation, those shocks quickly began to turn into excitement.

You know, as the new generation of "Kings of Pranks", the Weasley twins are fearless masters.

"It's great! To be honest, we owe you a lot - well, the moon - uh -"

"If you feel awkward, just call me Professor Lupin."

Lupine shrugged, keenly catching George Weasley's hesitation.

He is now in his thirties and has been a professor for almost a year. Of course he can understand the other party's embarrassment.

"It can be seen that you used it well - if it weren't for Sirius...well, Professor Black is faster, we almost couldn't stop you before you entered the secret passage. But I am still curious about how you found it

This 'worn parchment'."

"Ahem, ahem, the Marauder's Map!" Fred said a little embarrassed, making a face, "This goes back to the first grade -"

"First grade?" Sirius raised his eyebrows with interest.

This was earlier than the rest of them had awakened. No wonder Dumbledore would deliberately mention these two brothers to him.

"Well, when we were in first grade, Professor Black—young, innocent, carefree—"

Sirius made a rather playful snort.

He felt that lines like this would have looked like James's shamelessness ten years ago.

"—well, more naive than we are now—we had a little run-in with Mr. Filch."

"We put a big dung bomb in the hallway, and for some reason that little joke frustrated him—"

"So he pulled us into his office and started threatening to introduce the administrator—"

"—confinement—"

"—take out our intestines—"
