HP: Hogwarts, but pro-generation

"Certainly not!"

An angry voice appeared behind the two of them. Regulus shuddered, and the emotions he had finally expressed were scared back by the roar.

Regulus thought his expression must be funny, with worry and distress mixed with fear.

Xia turned around and saw Sirius. He appeared out of nowhere, his hands clenched into fists at his sides, with an expression of anger and concern.

Regulus also saw clearly who the person was. He now felt his temple throbbing. How come he didn't know that Sirius had a hobby of eavesdropping?

"What are you doing here?" His tone was cold. "Why are you eavesdropping on our conversation?"

"If I didn't hear it, were you going to keep it to yourself forever? When did this happen? Did they see you?"

Regulus stopped talking. His sudden silence made Sirius feel an unknown anger rising in his heart, and he quickly walked up to Regulus.

His hands tightened around Regulus' arms, forcing the other to look at him.

Regulus was also angered by Sirius's unexpected action. He sneered: "Tell you? What do you want to do? What can you do?"

"I……"

"Shut up, you mean to say you can take me away from the Black House and away from Walburga Black, right?"

Regulus didn't let Sirius say it out loud, but what he said happened to be exactly what Sirius was thinking.

"Do you think this is enough? Do you think they can't find us? Even if they can't find us, won't we come to school? Here, who do you think Cissy and Malfoy will help? Have you thought about it?"

Regulus's questions overwhelmed Sirius. He didn't know what to do. In his mind, as long as he left the Black Mansion and Walburga, nothing could defeat him.

"Yeah, you haven't thought about it." Regulus was a little disappointed, "After we leave, you can still have fun with your friends in Gryffindor, but what about me? What do you think Cissy will do to me then?"

"I……"

Sirius was speechless because he knew Regulus was right.

He could do whatever he wanted in Gryffindor, but Regulus was different. Slytherin was full of people who were on good terms with Black, and they would treat Regulus the same way they treated Black from Gryffindor.

That's not what he wants to see.

Sirius stood dumbly opposite Regulus, both brothers lowered their heads in silence.

Xia felt that she shouldn't be here. What she wanted to say was interrupted by Sirius's sudden appearance, and she couldn't interrupt their quarrel at will.

But she also believed that Regulus would not kneel down and kiss Voldemort's robes.

Maybe the previous Regulus would, but the Regulus standing in front of her now was a man who would go to the Muggle world with her to eat, drink and have fun, and a man who would discuss with her how novel the Muggle world was. How could such a man destroy everything he loved with his own hands?

She really wanted to yell, "Stop arguing..."

When she was mentally prepared to speak, Regulus realized that Xia was still here. He left this place in a hurry after saying sorry.

Xia, whose shout was stuck halfway, was a little glad that she didn't shout out, otherwise she could have deducted another Hogwarts.

After Regulus left, Sirius looked a little more normal. He leaned against the tree trunk dejectedly, still with his head lowered, and it was still impossible to guess his mood.

Xia walked over to Sirius and waited patiently for him to calm down.

"I just... I don't know... but I..."

Sirius spoke, and even though his words were incoherent, Shia understood what he meant immediately.

"We all know that you love each other very much." Xia said softly, "But your situation is different. Regulus is not suitable to run away from home."

Sirius didn't want to admit it, selfishly he wanted Regulus to leave Black right now.

"I had planned to leave in a few years, when I couldn't stand it anymore, when I could rely on myself," Sirius said, "and it's hard to believe that I was still mad at Regulus after he entered Slytherin, thinking he was beyond redemption..."

He turned to look at Xia, his eyes full of seriousness, "But when I heard him ask if you would kneel down..."

Sirius didn't want to say those words, so he skipped them vaguely, "For the first time, I felt so strongly that I should do something for him. I should shoulder my responsibilities as a brother, but I did something wrong, right?"

Xia shook her head. "You did nothing wrong, but you can listen to Regulus's ideas. Sometimes listening is better than imposing your own ideas on others."

After leaving, Regulus returned to the common room and met Greengrass. His anger, which had not yet subsided, was completely captured by Christian.

Christian knew that this Blake was out with Sia, but he didn't think Sia would make anyone else angry, so there was only one other possibility.

Shia and Black had encountered other things that made them angry. If Black was sending Shia back to Gryffindor, he should have concealed his emotions by now. It seemed that it was someone they all knew and were very familiar with.

Sirius Black.

If you ask why it wouldn't be that Blake encountered something annoying on the way Shia was taking her back, Christian said that he saw Sirius Black following Shia and the others stealthily.

It would be best if Sirius Black had no good impression from Xia at all, Christian thought with glee.
