The only Marauder's Map makers still alive today are Lupin and Sirius Black;

Perhaps the Marauder's Map cannot display Sirius Black's name because of this.

"In that case...it depends on who has the higher privilege..." He waved his wand again, driving the ancient magic power to cast a tracking spell, "Revelation! Remus Lupin!"

The other names on the Marauder's Map disappeared, and Lupin's name emerged in the outline of Hogwarts Castle;

Lupin was in a corridor on the third floor, and he should also be searching for Sirius Black's trace.

The fact that Lupin's name could be revealed shows that even if he is the maker of the Marauder's Map, the tracking spell with ancient magic power as the medium can still play the desired effect.

...

"Revelation! Sirius Black!"

Vizet chanted the spell again, using the ancient magic power as the medium to cast a tracking spell on the Marauder's Map.

Lupin's name disappeared, and Sirius Black did not emerge.

To be on the safe side, Vizet thought about it again and again, and used the "ancient magic power brewed over time" to cast a tracking spell on the Marauder's Map again.

The result was still the same, Sirius Black's name still did not appear.

After such a verification, Vizet finally confirmed that Sirius Black had indeed left Hogwarts.

He wrote a string of words on the bookmark: [Principal Dumbledore, Sirius Black is not in school. ]

The handwriting slowly disappeared from the bookmark, and just when he was about to write the second line of handwriting, a soft and warm silver light appeared in front of him.

It was a goat patronus, and the voice of Aberforth Dumbledore came out of it: "Boy, I think you should pass the test, but don't come to the Hog's Head Inn."

"Those Dementors are now in Hogsmeade Village. They are like flies that smell a bad smell. They wander around here and search from house to house. I just slapped one of them away."

"They dare to be so arrogant. I'm afraid they have discovered the trace of Sirius Black... I guess Hogwarts will not be peaceful either. You should be careful!"

After saying this, the goat patronus lowered its head and spit out a piece of paper. The light began to slowly dissipate.

Using the physical patronus spell as the basis to transmit messages or items, Vizet can actually perform similar operations after learning the Blood Knight spell.

The light soon disappeared completely. He picked up the note. On it was a route map to the secret passage and a short message.

【Boy, you can also use this secret passage to go back to Hogwarts, but I don't think you can use it. 】

"Aberforth, thank you!" Vizet folded the note neatly and put it in his pocket, "I'll write you a letter tomorrow... I'll see you again on the weekend!"

"Sirius Black..." He exhaled lightly, "And the wizard with the Dark Mark..."

Then he turned into a phoenix Animagus and disappeared in a fire.

-------------------------------------

Hogwarts Headmaster's Office.

Bang!

Snape broke into the door, startling the phoenix Fawkes and raising his head, letting out a long groan of dissatisfaction.

He stood in front of Dumbledore and asked in a cold tone: "End the search like this? Not even arranging night patrols?"

"Sirius Black has left." Dumbledore put the quill back into the ink bottle, closed the document in his hand and said.

He opened the drawer beside him, took out a bookmark and said, "I communicated with Vizet..."

"What did he say?" Snape narrowed his eyes slightly. He knew that Vizet had a map-like magic prop in his hand;

Last school year, Vizet relied on that map to quickly locate Colin Creevey's position and save him from the attack of the basilisk.

"Yes! Vizet didn't tell me the answer immediately." Dumbledore nodded gently, "but it took a long time before he told me that Sirius Black was not in Hogwarts."

"I think he should have verified and made sure that Sirius Black had indeed left before replying to me in a positive tone." He looked up at Snape slightly, "What do you think?"

"Then this matter is even more strange..." Snape raised his eyebrows, obviously accepting the fact that Sirius Black had left.

"A castle with many protections... a castle that can prevent apparitions... how did he get in?"

"As far as I know... there is such a wizard with a special experience in this school... a werewolf who becomes extremely dangerous at the full moon..."

"He seems to have colluded with Sirius Black and made many extraordinary actions. I think you should know who I am talking about..."

He stood in front of Dumbledore with his arms folded across his chest, with an arrogant attitude, "I told you before the start of school that he is not a reliable person."

"He has been wandering for so long, but now he is willing to return to Hogwarts, especially when Sirius Black escaped from prison. Isn't it worthy of suspicion?"

Dumbledore slowly raised his head, as if he didn't notice Snape's fierce momentum, "But I believe him..."

He added gently: "Severus, just like I believe in you... I believe in Remus."

"Really?" Snape put down his hands and looked at Dumbledore deeply, "I hope you won't regret it!"

"Of course I won't regret it." Dumbledore said with a smile, without any hesitation...

Chapter 192 Connelly, you can’t let yourself regret the decision you made!

This night seemed particularly restless.

Snape had just left the Headmaster's Office, and the flames in the fireplace were dancing wildly, gradually turning into an emerald green color.

Cornelius Fudge's face appeared in the flames. Even the emerald green firelight could not hide the sweat on his forehead and his slightly haggard face.

"Ha..." As soon as he opened his mouth, he yawned and coughed violently.

His face disappeared in the flames and appeared again after a while, with the sweat on his forehead getting thicker. "Principal Dumbledore, how is the situation at Hogwarts Castle?"

"I sent people to search Hogsmeade... and no suspicious characters were found there. What did Sirius Black get from the mysterious man? Why can't there be any traces at all?"

Dumbledore responded: "There is no trace here either. Sirius Black has left."

"It's so late..." Cornelius Fudge glanced aside, "Maybe those professors... or others, don't have that much energy. Maybe we can let..."

"Minister Fudge, that kind of thing cannot enter the campus." Dumbledore looked much more serious than before, "We seem to have discussed this matter many times."

"But the situation is different..." Cornelius Fudge wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Think about it...if those students came back earlier..."

"If they ran into Sirius Black...Sirius Black...a crazy fugitive! What he would do, I really don't dare to think..."

Dumbledore asked: "Can you imagine what the dementors would do when they entered Hogwarts and saw so many students?"

"I..." Cornelius Fudge blinked, "At least they will obey the orders of the Ministry of Magic, unlike Sirius Black, who is a loyal fan of You-Know-Who."

"Can they really obey orders?" Dumbledore asked again, "Minister Fudge, can you answer a question for me..."

"Why did they suddenly attack on the Hogwarts Express that day? You seem to have never given everyone a response to this matter."

Cornelius Fudge opened his mouth, not knowing how to retort for a moment;

Perhaps because of what happened at the end of the last school year, the relationship between him and Dumbledore is now very tense, and Dumbledore's attitude towards him seems to be getting tougher and tougher;

Especially regarding the issue of Dementors and Sirius Black, Dumbledore's attitude was completely out of touch.

In Cornelius Fudge's opinion, since Sirius Black had sneaked into the castle and caused a certain degree of damage, the Dementors should be allowed to enter Hogwarts so that Harry Potter could be protected.

The Dementor's previous loss of control was nothing more than an accident. Accidents always happen, and mistakes are inevitable...

Why is it that Dumbledore is so clingy and loves to get into trouble, why can't he relax a little bit?

"Minister Fudge, maybe we can start from ourselves..." Dumbledore interrupted Cornelius Fudge's thoughts, "For example, put a dementor around."

"The period doesn't need to be too long...it just needs to last until the end of the Christmas vacation. We will let the Dementors work and study with us without using any protection methods."

Cornelius Fudge's eyes widened, as if he didn't hear what Dumbledore said clearly, "What?"

"Send two dementors, one to follow you...and one to follow me..." Dumbledore explained calmly, "until the end of the Christmas vacation. What do you think of this proposal?"

"Your current idea is to let dementors enter Hogwarts Castle and turn this place into the second Azkaban. In that case! Then lead by example and experience this feeling first!"

"The time is actually not that long, it's just half a year. In addition, Minister Fudge...please consider another thing carefully. Will those parents support you in doing this?"

At this point, Cornelius Fudge also knew very well that he and Dumbledore once again had disagreements.

Just when he was about to leave the fireplace, Dumbledore spoke again, with a much softer tone than before, "Cornelly..."

"I would also feel uneasy when faced with such a thing. This is why dementors cannot enter the campus...these uneasiness should not spread and affect the students."

"Connelly... every decision we make may have an impact that is difficult to reverse, so we need to think more long-term and not let the person who made the decision regret it."

"Of course..." Cornelius Fudge forced a stiff smile, "I have always done this! Starting today, we will patrol the area around Hogwarts more frequently."

"As for today's incident, since there were no casualties, why not keep it secret for now? Otherwise, if they ask me to provide a solution, they may still have to use dementors."

"You should know, right? For the Quidditch World Cup final next year, the Ministry of Magic needs to prepare a venue and mobilize a large number of Ministry of Magic staff. The safety there is also very important, so it cannot be delayed."

Dumbledore did not respond, but looked at Cornelius Fudge deeply.

...

Cornelius Fudge's mouth twitched, and he took two steps back and returned to his office. The flame of the fireplace in front of him turned red again.

"What do you mean by not letting yourself regret?" His face was extremely strange, "It's still long-term consideration..."

"How many complaint letters do I receive every day now? If this goes on, I'm not sure if I can keep my position. How can I go on in the long run!"

He recalled the look in Dumbledore's eyes, which seemed to contain deep disappointment, and he couldn't help but grit his teeth.

"It's obvious that putting Dementors in the castle can solve many problems... and then planning the travel route will be fine. What a simple method? Can't he think of it?"
