HP solves the mystery
Chapter 49 The start of school and new worries
Severus was originally a little regretful that he didn't go to his roommate's engagement party. After he received Regulus's reply, he asked Kreacher to buy a round-mouthed vase belt with a colorful pattern that he bought from Juerlu Street. Went back as an engagement gift.
Although Severus was a little surprised that Regulus got engaged early, he had a premonition after receiving the letter. He was shocked that Voldemort would appear at the engagement banquet of the second son of the Black family.
Even though Walburga, as the head of the family, took Regulus to many important banquets as the 'heir', he was not recognized by other families. This was all because the eldest son Sirius still bore the title and tacitly accepted it. Primogeniture' was hardly transformed by a few words from her.
Voldemort's attendance not only showed his love for the Black family, but also recognized Regulus's position as heir. This meant that in addition to Bella, who was already married, there was once again someone in the Black family who was appreciated by Voldemort.
Not long after the engagement party ended, Walburga took her husband Orion into the secret room of the study to discuss.
After they came out with tired faces, they informed the rest of the Black family that they should always be more careful with their former heir and beloved eldest son, Sirius.
Time flies by like a fleeting moment.
The first day of school came quickly, and Severus was rarer than Regulus and they sat in the usual rear carriage of the Hogwarts Express.
While waiting, he flipped through the Daily Prophet, missing several issues in order to prepare a large amount of glory potion.
"Oh, good morning Severus, hey, don't always look like an old scholar, it will make Andre and I look boring..."
After putting away his luggage, little Barty went to the box and opened the door. What he saw was Severus carefully reading the newspaper, and he couldn't help but speak.
Andre poked his head out from behind, grinned at him, and then stuffed himself with a fried onion ring, which made a crunching sound, and the box was filled with the smell of onions.
Severus looked up and saw that Andre was holding a large oil-skin paper bag in his left hand and kept taking things out of it. He really didn't know how he got into the car with his luggage.
Seeing Severus looking over, Andre handed over the paper bag in his hand, "Would you like one? My mother's fried onion rings are delicious."
"No, Andre, you can eat it yourself, thank you." Severus politely declined. During the last period of the summer vacation, he ate a lot of new dishes developed at Zhang Mingyuan's house, and his mouth was spoiled.
I really don’t know what Zhang Mingyuan did before coming to England. He has a good mind and vision, but thinking about his rough luck makes him feel a little toothache.
Little Barty took out "Standard Spells, Level 5" and read it. It was the fifth grade at the beginning of school, and the content to be studied was more complicated.
The three of them sat quietly in the box until the train was about to leave, when someone arrived late.
Regulus looked a little haggard, but still handsome. His clothes were different from the simple ones before, and now they were more complicated. It seemed that he had attended some banquet before coming, and he smelled of alcohol.
He simply said hello to the three of them. His tired eyes lit up when he saw Severus, and then dimmed when he thought of something. He sat next to Severus and closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Severus originally wanted to chat for a few words, but when he saw him like this, he stopped talking and took out a thin blanket to cover him.
Although Severus didn't know what happened specifically, but since Sirius had betrayed the family, Lily had also accepted Potter's invitation to the music festival, and Voldemort had attended his engagement ceremony, he would probably not be able to do so during this period. Easy.
There was no talking all the way, and the Hogwarts Express stopped at Hogsmeade Station, and the little wizards got off the train one after another.
The first-year students chattered and were led to the lake to take a boat, while the senior students went to school in a carriage pulled by the Thestrals.
When I went to take the carriage, I met Sirius. He was wearing the trendy clothes of the Muggle world and was talking loudly with Potter and the others, his face full of joy.
When he saw Regulus and his party, he smiled proudly at them, not knowing what he was feeling proud of.
The sorting ceremony went on as usual. There were only a few students who entered Slytherin House. None of them had any surnames that Severus was familiar with. After a boring but humorous singing of the school song, they all went back to their dormitories.
Regulus still looked half-dead, and the tables full of delicious food in the auditorium didn't save him.
Severus was very puzzled. After being influenced by the Internet in his previous life, purebloods in the wizarding world were considered nobles, right? Marriage is inevitable, coupled with the solidification of interests.
To gain a good life is bound to lose something. This is his fate as the heir of the family.
Voldemort's intimacy with the Black family made Severus retreat. He should have thought that the families who supported Voldemort would become Death Eaters in the future.
The only thing he could do now was to put down a bottle of vitality tonic on Regulus' bedside. There was no more he could do.
Regulus, who was sleeping silently, didn't know that the friendship between him and his roommate was in a precarious state, and this state was irreversible.
He had already been overwhelmed by the numerous banquets and the agreements he had made with Miss Carlo. He also had to face the cynicism of other people, especially the main branch of the Carlo family in England. He tried to destroy their cooperation, but failed, and he once again resented his brother Sirius's defection.
The parents were horrified by Voldemort's arrival, while the Ministry of Magic's spies quickly analyzed the purpose of his arrival.
Regulus knew in his heart that this was a warning.
Voldemort went to his engagement party, firstly, to show his love for the Black family; secondly, to let the Black family express its stance. It was impossible for his family to hesitate among the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters, and to want to be the second minister? No one would agree. Even if they have allowed the children of the clan to go to other countries to develop, they have done so quietly.
The other families always believed that Sirius going to Gryffindor was a move by the Black family, and they secretly cursed the other party as being cunning and cunning, thinking that if one of the Death Eaters or the Order of the Phoenix failed in the future, they would have room to retreat.
In fact, they were overthinking. This behavior was completely Sirius Black's personal rebellion. The Black family was also caught off guard. It was too late for them to surrender to Voldemort. Moreover, they were still a 'pure' family that had been advertised for hundreds of years.
It can be seen from this that the person who disrupted the plan had a great influence on the matter, but he did not know it himself. He was still talking proudly about his free life after breaking away from the shackles of his family.
