A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 307 Parseltongue and the Locket

"Tomorrow, the Easter holiday ends, and the weekend will be two days away. How about setting it on that day?" Felix suggested.

"Can't it be tonight? You and I, let's do it together." Sirius said impatiently.

"If that place is Voldemort's secret treasure, will he let us leave comfortably?" Felix asked him back, especially, Felix has basically confirmed in his heart that it is the place where Voldemort placed the Horcrux, so be careful Always right.

"Sirius, I need to make some preparations, and so do you. You look a little impatient now."

"You're right, Felix," said Sirius at last.

Felix smiled slightly, "Let's go, Harry is waiting for us."

The two walked into the fireplace one after the other.

In Blake's old house.

Harry looked at the frighteningly old house-elf curiously, and he couldn't help but compare with Dobby. Although the appearance and clothes were completely different, the temperament of the two was surprisingly the same-it looked like he was in a Muggle world. The butler seen in the TV series.

Dobby's butler temperament is more obvious, because he has an extra small suit than the house elf in front of him.

"Hi, what's your name?" Harry greeted friendly.

Kreacher pursed his lips and muttered something in a low voice, but Harry didn't hear him clearly. He straightened his clean white cloth strips, bowed respectfully and said, "You can call me Kreacher, honorable guest." , welcome to Black's ancestral home."

Harry was a little shy, he didn't quite get used to the house-elf's welcome words: "Actually, ahem, wait, Black's ancestral house? Is this the home of Sirius?"

"That's right," Kreacher said, "The young master was born and raised here. Although he ran away from home ignorantly when he was young..." He showed a sly look in his eyes, "but when he encounters danger, he still thinks of it immediately. here."

Harry asked for details with great interest. He wanted to know more about the godfather. After learning that Harry was Sirius' godson, Kreacher's attitude became more respectful and he was willing to tell more secret things.

"The young master has been crying for the past few days, and Kreacher has heard it, but the young master refuses to admit it..."

"Kreacher! Shut up!" The fireplace flickered again, and Sirius walked out from it. As soon as he came in, he heard Kreacher slandering himself, and his nose almost crooked.He strode over, lifted Kreacher from the ground, and said loudly, "Don't tell anyone—"

Kreacher said respectfully: "But Mr. Potter is the master's godson. As your heir, he has the right to know..."

"I said, no!" Sirius' lips trembled, "Go make tea."

"Of order." Kreacher's figure flickered and disappeared.

Felix watched for a long time, a smile flashed in his eyes, "So your relationship has improved?"

"Which eye did you see? He's still so annoying..." Sirius muttered.

Harry blinked. He thought he should tell Ron what he saw. Ron always believed that house elves were servants of nobles and only knew how to obey orders, but the two elves he came into contact with—Dobby And Kreacher, each has its own character.

When they came to the living room, it was the first time for Harry. He was curious about everything here, and he had an inexplicable affection. Although the house was a bit dark, maybe the lights were not turned on?After all, it is night now, Sirius lives alone, there is no need to waste it...

The air was a bit damp and had a musty smell, which was nothing, just a little cleaning, and Harry thought he could help.

Coming to the living room, it was a little brighter here, the candles by the wall were burning quietly, and there was a delicate golden chandelier hanging from the ceiling, Harry suspected that it was made of pure gold.

"Sit casually, the room is a bit messy." Sirius put away the scattered comic books and piled them aside, he stood there for a while, "Oh, yes, I'm going to get things."

Sirius left, there was the sound of crunching planks in the distance, and soon he reappeared, returning with a heavy gold locket.

Kreacher brought hot tea in due course, and he stood at the door.

"This is the thing... Master Regulus gave it to Kreacher to destroy it. But there is so much magic on the box, poor Kreacher tried everything, but he couldn't leave a trace... ..."

"Kreacher guessed it should be opened from the inside, but I couldn't."

Harry watched Kreacher cry sadly, worried that he would suddenly jump up and punish him the next second.But in a flash of his mind, he opened it from the inside?He vaguely thought about something.

Felix leaned closer and looked at the locket carefully. It looked very clean. It should have been cleaned by Sirius. There was a gorgeous S-shaped snake embedded in the surface, which was composed of many small emeralds, emitting a slight fragrance. light.

"The letter S." "A snake?"

Felix and Harry said at the same time, looking at each other, Felix laughed, "We're both right." He tapped the gold locket with his forefinger, and his perspective began to change, colors like It was washed away by the rain, and it became gray, and the dazzling magic brilliance was in sight, layered and densely packed. In the innermost layer of these protective magics, there is a group of extremely evil dark forces. It is like a monster. squirming.

It was a Horcrux, and... Felix found that this Horcrux was more active than any he had seen before, as if it was about to jump out in a second.

Felix thought about it. It seemed that Voldemort arranged each Horcrux differently. The Diary Horcrux was also very active, but what was active was the memory of the young Voldemort hidden in it, not the soul fragments inside.

As for the crown, it was even more secretive. He didn't see any flaws at all. Combined with the characteristics of Ravenclaw's crown itself, maybe it was part of a trick—to let the person who won the crown fall for it silently.

Sirius stared at Felix and Harry, who suddenly fell silent, "What do you see?"

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be Salazar Slytherin's locket, which was used by Voldemort—" Felix stopped talking, and the locket trembled slightly, showing agitation.

"I've never seen it like this before." Sirius stood up in amazement, pulled Harry aside, and stared at it warily, the gold chain on the locket writhing wildly, as if trying to strangle them all. someone's neck.

"Sirius, Professor..." Harry swallowed hard, "I want, I want to do something."

"What are you talking about, Harry?" asked Sirius, who was concerned that Harry was under the influence of the locket, and was looking at his godson worriedly. "Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, no," Harry felt incredible at the thought that came to him suddenly, "It's Parseltongue, I want to speak in Parseltongue!" Sirius looked at Harry blankly, he didn't know Harry at all. There is also this ability.

"Go ahead and let's see what changes," Felix said quietly.

So Harry stared at the locket and imagined the pattern on it to be a little snake, which was easy, especially since the locket was still vibrating and rustling, and he opened it. Mouth, let out a "hissing" sound.

Felix is ​​no stranger to this word. He heard it a few times in the Chamber of Secrets last year. It should mean——

"Open it," said Harry in Parseltongue.
