The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

The banquet at Grimmauld No. 12 was simple and rough. There was no magnificent auditorium, nor gorgeous and dazzling dresses. Even the guests who came to the banquet were a group of strange people.

The only thing worth mentioning at the scene was the Black family's relatively high-quality wine collection.

Link was actually not very interested in these drinks.

Last year, excessive drinking caused him to lose control of his mental and magical powers and ended up in bed. The consequences were too tragic, which left a great psychological shadow on him.

However, Sirius and the Weasley brothers took great pleasure in getting Link drunk.

They poured glass after glass of wine for Link on the grounds that Link was an adult and they had to thank him.

Their intentions were too obvious, and Link laughed at them.

However, what surprised Link was that Hermione, who was supposed to be the most opposed to the young wizard drinking, silently poured him a few glasses of wine at this time, obviously also wanting Link to drink a few more glasses.

For Hermione's sake, Link finally began to accept the toasts from the Weasley brothers, Sirius and others until the glass was dry.

This made Sirius and the Weasley brothers extremely happy.

They have already had a deep grudge with Link, and they can't stand up to Link head-on. It would be very appropriate to get Link drunk and make a fool of himself now.

However, they missed one point.

That is, Link learned from Snape, and his level of potion making is extremely high, and he is even a quasi-potion master.

For a potion expert, sobering potions and the like are really the basis of the basics.

So, after an afternoon of carnival, almost all the adult wizards participating in the carnival, including the Weasley brothers, were drunk. Link's face was red and his body was swaying, as if he would fall to the ground in the next moment. .

It's a pity that no one at the scene would believe that Link would be drunk, because Link had been in this state of being drunk but not drunk a few hours ago.

"You...you are cheating..."

As Sirius, the most stoic person in the besieging team, also murmured and fell to the floor, Link laughed twice, and with the support of Hermione and Mrs. Weasley, he returned to the guest room that had been prepared for him.

Sirius and others were left in the care of Harry and Ron.

As for whether Harry and Ron can take care of people, and how well they take care of these people, Hermione and Mrs. Weasley don't care.

In their view, drunkards who make people drink are not entitled to any good treatment.

"Hermione, I'll leave it to you to change his clothes and other things. I have to go take a look outside to prevent those drunkards from being killed by Harry and Ron."

After helping Link, who had finally lost consciousness, to the bed, Mrs. Weasley said to Hermione with a smile.

Hearing this, Hermione's face turned red, she lowered her head and muttered:

"I...I can't...otherwise, let Harry do it. They are all boys, so it's more convenient."

Mrs. Weasley's footsteps paused. She turned back and whispered in a low voice:

"Hermione! There are very few good boys in this world, and there is no one in a million who is suitable for us and is excellent at the same time! As girls, we should be brave enough to attack when we encounter such a boy!"

"But...he already has a fiancée..."

Hermione rubbed her sleeves, the blush on her face already soaked into her eyes, as if tears would fall down the next moment.

Upon seeing this, Mrs. Weasley stepped forward and held Hermione's hand and said:

"So what, aren't they officially married yet? Listen to me, you don't have to do anything else, you just need to help him change into a nightgown, and then let him know tomorrow. In this way...hehe."

Hearing this, Hermione suddenly looked up at Mrs. Weasley, her eyes filled with shock.

She naturally understood the brilliance of the other party's plan, but she was just shocked that Mrs. Weasley had such scheming intentions, which was completely different from the other party's usual behavior.

"Don't look at me like this. This is the wisdom that women should have. How can I marry into the Weasley family if I don't have any skills? You know, although Arthur is unreliable and useless, but Weasley After all, Sly is also one of the 28 sacred tribes, and Arthur’s parents are difficult to deal with.”

After saying this, Mrs. Weasley gave Hermione another cheering look, then left the room, closing the door for her.

The room fell silent for a moment.

Hermione stood there blankly, glancing at Link secretly, her expression hesitant and struggling.

Unfortunately, this hesitation only lasted for a short time on her face before being replaced by determination.

After all, Hermione is also a standard Gryffindor, and the word courage always applies to all her words and deeds.

She slowly came to Link's bedside, stared at Link's sleeping face, murmured something in her mouth, and finally reached out to the buttons of Link's shirt.

At this moment, Hermione could clearly feel that her heart was beating wildly. Countless hot blood was flowing through her body under this powerful stimulation, making her blood boiling and she couldn't help but feel excited and excited.

However, in the next moment, this excitement turned into panic.

Because before her hand could actually touch Link, a ferocious snake head emerged from Link's collar, opening its bloody mouth toward Hermione in a threatening manner.

"ah--"

Hermione screamed instinctively, but quickly covered her mouth again, fearing that the people downstairs would hear her.

As if this stimulation was too sudden, Hermione's body continued to tremble, tears finally fell from her eyes uncontrollably, and she finally rushed out of the room.

"Hiss!~"

Arkham hissed in pleasure, and scaring people had become one of his few hobbies besides eating high-sugar snacks.

However, even though it was happy, it did not forget the order given to it by Link.

It flexibly emerged from Link's collar, and in an instant it turned into a giant python, entrenched on the bed.

That means that no one is allowed to get close to Link.

And just when it was posing, the door to the room suddenly opened again.

It's Hermione!

There were still tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, but she was holding an oversized pan in her hand. She walked into the room angrily and hit Arkham on the head before he could react. He hit Arkham on the head. on the floor.

"Smelly snake!"

Hermione said this angrily, and then left quickly.

Gryffindor girls are so fierce.

"Hiss!~" (Damn female monkey! You are the one who stinks! You are the one who stinks!)

It was only then that Arkham reacted in a daze, roaring angrily and about to rush out to fight back.

At this moment, a huge smell of alcohol suddenly spread out from behind him.

After using the magic potion to completely dispel the alcohol in his body, Link opened his slightly bloodshot eyes and softly called out in Snake accent:

"Hiss." (Come back.)

Upon hearing this, Arkham's body, which was already in the shape of a charged bow, suddenly froze.

It turned its head and stared at Link for a long time with its snake eyes that had turned scarlet. Then it aggrievedly stuffed its head into Link's arms, and kept pushing towards Link's face, as if to ask him to Help smell it to see if it really stinks.

Arkham certainly doesn't stink.

Link doesn't have to allow a dirty, smelly snake to crawl around on his body. Link cleans Arkham and Yo-Yo almost every day to ensure that their scales are smooth and new, and their interiors are also clean. Don’t hide filth.

Especially after Link was awakened by Arkham's bad breath countless times, the cleaning content for the two of them even included brushing their teeth, which they hated.

This is also the reason why Arkham is so wronged.

It has made such great sacrifices to keep its body clean, but in the end it is still called a stinking snake.

Seeing Arkham's aggrieved look, Link had no choice but to hug the other person's head, and then returned to his dream.

……

Three hours later, Link opened his eyes.

At this time, the sky outside the window had completely darkened, and the entire old house at No. 12 Grimmauld Place was silent - everyone, including Hermione and Mrs. Weasley, had already rested.

Link pulled away Arkham who was tightly wrapped around his body, glanced around the dark room, then stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers in the air:

"Kreacher."

"Yes, distinguished guest, I am here."

A hoarse voice sounded, and the old and ugly house elf Kreacher slowly walked out of the corner.

He lowered his head deeply, not daring to look at Link at all, and his body hidden in the darkness could not help but tremble.

In fact, he had already been waiting in the room when Link came in, waiting for Link's instructions at any time.

This is what he does best as a house elf.

Because of this, he witnessed with his own eyes how Link commanded Arkham in Snake accent.

This scene reminded Kreacher of many bad scenarios.

He was so frightened!

In fact, if Sirius's mother hadn't ordered him to entertain the distinguished guest Link, he would have escaped long ago!

Link also saw something strange about Kreacher, but he didn't care.

He got out of bed unhurriedly, straightened out his wrinkled clothes, and called softly:

"Kreacher, come closer."

"Yes...yes, respect the guests."

Kreacher stammered while slowly walking towards Link.

He walked particularly slowly, and his body shook even more.

This was entirely because Arkham had also woken up and was standing up straight behind Link, staring condescendingly at Kreacher with a look that looked at prey.

After a long period of movement, Kreacher still reached Link.

He forced out a smile and said:

"Guest, guest, do you have any instructions?"

Link had no intention of talking to him, so he took out his wand.

"Soul out of the body!"

The hazy mist spurted out instantly!

Kreacher's expression was extremely horrified, but when the mist completely enveloped him and penetrated along his mouth and nose, the muscles on his face instantly relaxed, and he became neither sad nor happy, looking like a fool.

"Give me the relics of Regulus Black."

As soon as Link said this, Kreacher's expression showed some obvious changes, but eventually he returned to his dull state and staggered towards the door.

Seeing this, Link quickly followed, with a satisfied smile on his face.

Against a stubborn old house elf like Kreacher, Link had no intention of using gentle methods from the beginning.

The efficiency of this is too low. You must know that Regulus exchanged his life for the pendant. Kreacher would not give it to Link easily under any circumstances.

If that's the case, then just use the Imperius Curse directly.

Link followed Kreacher around several corners, and finally arrived at a closed door.

There is also a delicate little sign hanging on the door, with a line of words neatly written on it:

without my permission

No Entry

rab

"call."

With a soft breath, Link knew that he had found his destination.

He directly pushed away Kreacher, who was jumping to grab the door handle. He flicked his wand and heard a "click" before the door lock automatically opened.

Link crossed the threshold and stepped onto the dusty floor, covering his mouth and looking around.

Regulus's bedroom was obviously smaller than the one Link had just slept in, but even though more than ten years had passed, Link could still feel the previous splendor of this place.

Here, the silver and green colors representing Slytherin House can be seen everywhere, covering beds, windows and walls.

The ornaments of the Black family and the motto of eternal purity are even more delicately painted on the bedside.

Below there are many yellowed newspaper clippings, glued together into an irregular collage.

Link got closer and started flipping through, only to realize that they were all reports about Voldemort.

The content here contains almost all the reports from Voldemort's rise to the peak of his power, and also witnesses the entire process of Voldemort's step-by-step transformation from a dreamer with extreme ideas but still lofty ambitions to a madman.

Link carefully put these clippings into the Invisible Stretch Charm pocket. He was very interested in this stuff.

After doing all this, Lin Kecai noticed a few photo frames placed beside the bed.

Wiping off the dust on the glass surface, one can clearly see a set of photos of Regulus wearing a Slytherin Seeker uniform, galloping and laughing on the Quidditch pitch.

Regulus in the photo has black hair and the arrogant expression on his face is almost exactly the same as Sirius.

The only difference between the two of them is probably that Regulus does not look as handsome as Sirius when he was young, but he is not much different. After all, this is the result of the Black family's continuous marriage of beautiful women for hundreds of years to improve their genes.

Putting the picture frame back into place, Link began his search for the Slytherin Locket.

A blue light burst out from his eyes, and while the super-sensing spell was running at full strength, huge mental power surged out from between Link's eyebrows and began to scan the entire room from top to bottom.

again.

twice.

three times.

……

Link's brows slowly wrinkled.

He didn't find anything similar to Slytherin's locket here!

Link turned to look at Kreacher, the blue light in his eyes having been replaced by scarlet light.

Arkham also climbed in from outside the door at the right time, and the city formed a giant snake cake with Link as the center, which made Link's momentum even more terrifying.

However, Kreacher turned a blind eye to all this and still maintained a dull and happy expression on his face.
