Chapter 31 The Unbreakable Oath
Standing at the door of No. 12 Grimmauld Place again, Andromeda felt quite emotional.
The last time she came here was almost 20 years ago.
That time, her father, Signus Black, brought the three sisters to visit Walburga and Orion.
At that time, Voldemort was growing in power, and most members of the Black family strongly agreed with his ideas. For example, Bellatrix, whose worship of Voldemort had reached a fever pitch.
With Bella's character, of course she doesn't like what her cousin Sirius does.
It's a shame to have a Gryffindor in a family that's all Slytherin.
As a result, the party ended up being disrupted by a battle between Bella and Sirius. Of course, due to the age gap, the battle was one-sided.
Everyone present, except for Regulus who was the youngest and couldn't get a word in, almost all stood by Bella's side and angrily accused Sirius of not knowing etiquette.
She was the only one who had ever tried to comfort her rebellious cousin.
"Wait, I have to leave this hellish place sooner or later!" She remembered that the stubborn Sirius, who was covered in curse scars, did not shed a single tear, and kept mumbling this sentence over and over in his mouth.
Andromeda finally made up her mind that night.
A few weeks later, the news that Andromeda had eloped with Muggle-born Ted Tonks shocked the entire Black family.
Signus Black angrily announced that Andromeda would be removed from the family, and her name was burned off the stall of the Black family tree by Walburga.
"Since we're here, why don't you come in first?" The gentle greeting brought her back to reality from her memories.
She looked at the tall, thin, pale man at the door.
In the impression, the image of a quiet and obedient little boy with almost no sense of existence gradually emerged and gradually overlapped.
"It's good to see you again," Andromeda said nonchalantly.
Regulus ushered Andromeda into the room.
Today's No. 12 Grimmauld Place, thanks to Kreacher's hard work of more than twenty hours a day, has restored seventy-eight points of its former splendor.
The furniture was spotless, the crystal or glass ornaments were crystal clear, and even every branch of the chandelier was polished.
The two sat down and Kreacher served black tea.
"Would you like tea?" Regulus waved his wand, and the teapot flew up automatically, pouring tea into the two cups.
"Do not."
"What to drink then?"
"Anything but tea."
Regulus clapped his hands three times, and Kreacher immediately brought a glass of red wine.
"Let's talk about what we have to say. What exactly do you want to talk to me about?" Andromeda took the wine glass but did not drink it.
"We have a relative who is currently living in Azkaban. I would like to go in and visit him and give him some fruits or something." Regulus took a sip of tea and said, "You know, it's not suitable for my identity to be made public right now. "
"You have the wrong person." Andromeda immediately refused, "My sister will not decide not to kill me just because I went to give her some fruit."
"No, not Bella." Seeing that she might have misunderstood, Regulus immediately corrected him, "Another person, your cousin, my brother."
"Sirius?" Andromeda's eyes lit up, but then dimmed again.
Regulus immediately guessed Andromeda's thoughts and asked, "You haven't visited him in all these years, have you?"
Andromeda nodded.
In her mind, Sirius should have been a completely different existence from the Black family. As a result, Sirius became a traitor, informer and murderer overnight.
This made her feel desperate, and the image of the stubborn young man who had given her the courage to escape from her family collapsed.
"Do you believe he is a traitor?" Regulus asked softly.
"I don't believe it!" Andromeda replied immediately, but then shook her head and said, "But the evidence is so strong, he didn't even defend himself..."
"If he knew that his favorite cousin viewed this matter this way, he would be very sad." Regulus sighed.
"What do you mean? Is he innocent? What do you know?" Andromeda asked immediately regardless of her demeanor.
"I believe he is innocent, and I have roughly determined who the real traitor is, but I need to see him. There are some things that only he knows." Regulus said seriously.
"How do you want me to help you?" Andromeda asked eagerly.
"It's very simple. Just take me into Azkaban and talk to him face to face for a few minutes." Regulus spread his hands to indicate that this was easy.
Andromeda hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stood up and walked toward the door, leaving a few words: "I refuse."
"I can assure you that I will not harm him, but will sincerely clear his name." Regulus raised his voice.
"Promise?" Andromeda put her hand on the doorknob, turned around and asked, "How do you guarantee it?"
"Use a method you think is foolproof, such as making an unbreakable oath or something." Regulus put the tea cup aside and walked to Andromeda.
Andromeda stared at Regulus for more than ten seconds, trying to make sure he was not joking.
In the end, she made a decision.
"In that case, let's go to my house and let Ted be our witness."
"No need to bother, he has been waiting outside the door for a long time." Regulus raised the corner of his mouth.
The door opened, and Andromeda immediately recognized the person standing outside the fence. It was Ted Tonks.
He finally followed Andromeda over.
After a brief explanation of the situation, Ted Tonks took out his wand and pointed at the right hands held by Regulus and Andromeda.
"Regulus Black, are you willing to do whatever it takes to help Sirius clear his name and regain his innocence?"
"I am willing."
A tongue of fire spurted out from Ted's clutches, turning into a thin golden chain that wrapped around their hands.
An unbreakable oath, anyone who breaks it will die.
With this oath as a guarantee of trust, everything became simple, and several people quickly perfected the plan.
"I'll go find Amelia Bones and submit the application. She will agree. As for Polyjuice Potion..." Andromeda looked at Regulus.
"It will take a month to prepare it, but don't worry, as long as you have money, you can always buy it ready-made." Regulus turned to Ted, "Mr. Tonks, you know how to use Polyjuice Potion."
Ted pulled out a few hairs and handed them to Regulus. Regulus conjured a small bottle, put the hair in it, and sealed it.
"Just wait for news at school. Once the schedule is confirmed, I will contact you immediately." Andromeda smiled.
Ted Tonks made the first move and returned to his home through the fireplace.
But after Andromeda grabbed a handful of Floo powder, she didn't leave immediately.
"How is Dora at school?" she asked suddenly.
"The performance was good, except that I almost used the blasting spell to blow the head of a man named Gargson into a rotten watermelon." Regulus answered truthfully.
"Then you have to discipline her."
The last time she came here was almost 20 years ago.
That time, her father, Signus Black, brought the three sisters to visit Walburga and Orion.
