Groups of hazy white mist rose from various locations in the castle.

Under Professor McGonagall’s shocked gaze, several Dementors that had just broken out of Hogwarts Castle screamed and fled outside.

“This… this is…”

Then, under the leadership of their respective heads, groups of students who mastered the Patronus Charm bravely stood up.

The Dementors in the castle were expelled one by one.

“It’s the little wizards of Hogwarts! They are using the Patronus Charm!”

Professor Flitwick, who was using the Patronus Charm to resist the Dementors, exclaimed.

Professor Sprout beside him also showed admiration.

“I didn’t expect so many students in this class to master it. Although they don’t look proficient, it’s already very good!”

“Solve a big problem for us!”

“I remember that there were only a few students in the past who could use the Patronus Charm. Mr. Grindelwald’s teaching gave us a big surprise.” Professor Flitwick couldn’t help but praise.

“Take this opportunity to drive these Dementors out of Hogwarts!”

Without any worries, Professor McGonagall completely let go.

The tabby cat made of silver-white mist jumped up and rushed out of the castle.

Argus’s eyes were stern, and the patronus Qilin swooped down towards the bottom of the castle.

The Dementors, who were still wandering in the castle looking for opportunities, could no longer sit still.

As if they were headless flies, they fled around the castle, trying to find a way to escape.

“It’s the chief, the chief’s patronus!”

“Quick, follow the chief’s patronus!”

“That’s right, drive these Dementors out in one go!”

Slytherin, who was at the bottom of the lounge, responded first. Several grade heads had summoned their own patronus under the guidance of Argus.

Snow ferrets, hyenas, hares…

The silver-white shadow followed Qilin closely.

The other three colleges were also encouraged, and people kept standing up.

“Expecto Patronus!”

Percy was the first to summon his patronus, the weasel, and after driving away the Dementors in the Gryffindor Common Room, he also joined the Kirin’s followers.

Next came Penelope, Cedric…

The entire Hogwarts Castle seemed to be shrouded in the silver-white Patronus Charm!

“Phew! Finally drove away these dark creatures!”

Professor Flitwick wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked up at the Dementors that were gradually escaping.

He let out a long breath.

“By the way, Minerva, where is Albus?”

“With such a big thing happening, how could he not show up as the headmaster of Hogwarts!”

Professor McGonagall shook her head: “I don’t know either.”

“He must have gone out for something important.”

“However, Mr. Grindelwald helped a lot with today’s matter.”

“If he hadn’t taught the Patronus Charm in Hogwarts, I’m afraid many young wizards would have been injured.”

Professor McGonagall’s words were agreed by many professors and deans.

One after another, eyes were cast on Argus.

Some of them originally complained about Argus’s behavior of bypassing the professor and teaching the Patronus Charm.

If it weren’t for Argus, their club would not have been without participants.

It was not until today, when the Dementors broke into the Hogwarts Castle, that they saw the effect of Argus’s teaching!

It can be said that if it weren’t for Argus’s teaching of the Patronus Charm on weekends, Hogwarts would definitely have suffered casualties this time!

And it is very likely that there would be more than one case!

In the eyes of most Hogwarts professors, Argus is a good student with both good character and good academic performance.

This incident made them see Argus’s responsibility and commitment as the head of Slytherin and the best student in the history of Hogwarts.

When facing danger, he did not choose to hide.

Instead, he stood in front of all the little wizards and led them to resist bravely!

Argus was not proud of this, and nodded slightly to many professors and deans.

“As a student of Hogwarts, this is what I should do, Professor McGonagall.”

“I think this honor should be given to all Hogwarts.”

Under the arrangement of Professor McGonagall, a group of professors went to the lounges of various colleges to check.

Check if there are any injured students.

Professor McGonagall herself went to find a way to notify Dumbledore.

After everyone left, Argus heard the news that made him feel relieved.

Peter Pettigrew escaped!

Just now, the Dementors broke into the Hogwarts Castle in order to capture Sirius.

In order to protect Sirius, Harry and Lupin cast the Patronus Charm with all their strength, and completely forgot about Peter.

Peter took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and changed back to the Animagus form.

He dived into the corner of the castle.

When Harry and the others reacted, they could no longer seesee his trace.

Snape’s face was so dark that water could almost drip out.

He didn’t care about Sirius’ innocence, he just wanted to seek revenge on Peter!

If he had known that Peter would escape from them, he should have risked being injured and killed him with a killing curse!

Harry and his friends also looked unhappy, and even lowered their heads and dared not look at Argus.

Argus spent so much time designing a plan to catch Peter Pettigrew.

And spent a lot of effort to capture him.

As a result… he couldn’t even do such a small thing as guarding!

Especially Harry, who volunteered, felt even more frustrated.

“Take advantage of now, Peter hasn’t run far, see if we can catch him again.”

Argus took out the Marauder’s Map and sighed with regret.

No one spoke, even Snape, who should have been the most sarcastic at this time, looked at the Marauder’s Map in Argus’s hand silently.

But Argus would never leave such a loophole. No matter how they searched on the Marauder’s Map, they couldn’t find any trace of Peter.

Helplessly, he could only sigh and give Sirius an apologetic look.

Sirius felt more guilty when he saw this.

He took the initiative to comfort: “Don’t worry, Argus.”

“I saw everything you did. It’s not your fault that Peter escaped.”

“I will hand the things to you as agreed.”

“Do you still need to tell Dumbledore about this?” Lupin’s words diverted everyone’s attention.

Yes, this time he came out to hand Peter over to Dumbledore.

Now that the person is missing, is there any point in looking for Dumbledore again?

Snape snorted disdainfully, turned around and left, ignoring them.

Lupin guessed the reason why Snape left, and didn’t say much, just sighed slightly.

“Dumbledore will definitely ask about the Dementors breaking into the castle.”

“Tell him the general idea. With his connections and strength, he will be more likely to find Peter.”

“Sirius will hide for the time being and see what Dumbledore’s attitude is before deciding whether to show up.”

What Argus said seemed to be comforting, but in fact, he firmly held the decision-making power of the incident in his own hands.

The other three were regretting Peter’s escape at this time and didn’t think deeply about it at all.

Nodding, he agreed to Argus’s plan.
