Golden glitter

On the train leaving Hogwarts, Minato greeted everyone and left the box of Malfoy's house.A small test, starting from boarding the train, Watergate must find a way to slip away from everyone's noses.His dear father and lord godfather would watch over him, and find him by all means common to wizards.The time limit is this winter vacation, if the winter vacation is over and has not been found, the test is passed, and Minato will go back to school by himself.

This was the final decision discussed after a meeting of several people. Over the past semester, a series of incidents have shown that Minato has been targeted, and it is impossible to determine which side is black and white.If it is what Dumbledore meant, then Watergate must have the ability to leave Hogwarts at any time. Crossing the Forbidden Forest is an ideal route, but Dumbledore's influence spreads all over the wizarding world, so it is very important to conceal people's eyes and ears.If it was a Death Eater, or even worse, this was what Voldemort meant, then Malfoy Manor would not be safe, and Voldemort, who had regained his strength, was likely to enter Malfoy Manor, and Watergate had better leave.Both black and white are unreliable, and Watergate needs to make it impossible for anyone to find him.They have also established a lot of footholds for more than a year. The participation in the Triwizard Tournament has attracted a lot of attention to Minato, and the Malfoy family's power network is not weak. Just take advantage of the time now, and practice it first, and feel good about it. a bottom.

Both Lucius and Severus were waiting on the platform. This test forbids Watergate to use a method similar to jumping in the middle of the car. If that is the case, they may really have no clue for a while.The same is true of the thinking of orthodox wizards: there are protective magic on the train, and the real battle will start when you step out of the door.They waited until all the people on the platform were gone, and they didn't find any trace of Mizumen, so they didn't give up. , Severus got into the car again and looked for it, but the car was empty.The expressions of several people are a little subtle, so they left early?That should be the case, so they can rest assured that as long as they pass this test, the chances of the wizarding world finding Minato will almost certainly be zero.

And what about Watergate?

We all know that there are many ways to deceive people, and there will be an optimal solution depending on the target object. If the organic combination of several parties is good, it can even be fake. The "Ignore Charm" is the simplest one, but also a rather rough one, which can only be used against ordinary Muggles.There is also the "Confusion Curse", which can only deceive objects whose magic power is weaker than its own, which is very unreliable.Wizards will most often use "polyjuice potion", but the time limit and smell of this potion are shortcomings, and the latter must not escape the nose of the pharmacist.But there are still many methods that generally do not need to be used in this area. Wizards seldom use the "Levitation Curse" to prevent themselves from leaving footprints, and they will never specialize in tools for tracking scents... This greatly facilitates the former Watergate. Master Ninja, tracking and anti-tracking are the basic and compulsory courses for ninjas.

A transformation technique, turning into a boy with a public face; a bottle of potion that acts on body odor, which is a must-have for wizards who capture wild creatures, making the user's smell natural; restraining one's breath and changing temperament , This is very simple for a ninja who can imitate anyone; Transfiguration, changing the style of the suitcase and clothes... After some actions, Minato promised that no one would recognize him unless he said it himself.

After getting out of the platform, the water gate didn't stay, and passed through the space-transforming wall. On the other side, the Muggle King's Cross Station, the water gate, like all wizards who mingled among Muggles, quickly disappeared into the hasty flow of people.Take a taxi, transfer, walk... It was already evening when they arrived at the destination. The dark sky provided favorable conditions for the ninja to sneak. When he reappeared, the water gate had reached Grimmauld Square, outside the hidden entrance of No. 12.After opening the door and entering the house, after saying hello, Shuimen returned to his bedroom here. It was already late today, so if he cared about it, he should wait until dawn.

At dawn the next day, Minato got up early to take care of himself and called Kreacher, the last house-elf in Black's old house.

He has been concerned about that matter for a long time, and he felt it when he stepped into the house for the first time in Xia Tian.A living spirit, there is a living spirit locked up in this house.

At that time, the time he stayed here was too short. He searched the whole old house but couldn't find the carrier, so he had to give up temporarily.But this time back, the elf's abnormal loss of vitality caught Minato's attention.Sure enough, the elf that appeared in front of him was much older than what he saw then.

Minato asked straight-forwardly—if you still use the aristocratic tricks to deal with house-elves, you are asking for trouble, "Kreacher, there is a living being in Black's old house, do you know where it is?" Questioning tone, commanding language.

Kreacher's big eyes widened even further, how did the young master know this secret?

Seeing what Kreacher was thinking, "Your vitality loss is abnormal, it's only been half a year, it's lost too fast." Minato answered.

"Yes... yes, young master Malfoy, Kreacher knows." The trembling little thing suddenly became excited, "Kreacher can't say it, but Kreacher can't say it! Little Master Regulus forbids Kreacher to tell his family! "The little elf cried while repeating, and was so excited that he was about to hit the wall.

"Reculus?" Minato reflexively stopped the elf who wanted to punish him, "is it Regulus Arcturus Black, little uncle?" Uncle, who had never met face to face, told him from experience, keep asking.

"Yes, it's the uncle of Young Master Malfoy. Oh, Master Regulus ordered Kreacher not to tell his family about that matter! Kreacher can't go against the words of Young Master Malfoy, and Kreacher can't finish Young Master Malfoy." Kreacher is a bad elf!" The crying elf began to struggle again.

Watergate pressed it firmly, "Kreacher, listen carefully, what Uncle Regulus said was 'you can't tell the family', and I'm not from the Black family, the magic made you call me 'Master Malfoy'. You can tell me, as long as you don't violate anyone's orders." Fooling the house elves, he has practiced water gate for more than ten years, and as his training objects, the elves in Malfoy Manor are no longer so stupid.

"Yes, yes, Kreacher can tell Young Master Malfoy, Master Regulus did not prevent Kreacher from telling Young Master Malfoy..." See.

On this winter morning, while the portraits were still dozing off, in the guest room of Blake's old house, one talked and the other listened, and the secrets that had been dusty for more than ten years resurfaced.In Kreacher's weeping and intermittent narration, Minato sorted out what happened back then.

Because the heir betrayed the family, Regulus, the second son, was offered to the Dark Lord as a ransom for the preservation of the family.Not long after becoming a Death Eater, Regulus discovered this terrible secret, the secret of the Dark Lord's eternal life-horcruxes.Regulus learned of its location, through Kreacher - it had been taken by the Dark Lord as a sacrifice to house the Horcrux.Kreacher survived because of Regulus' order: go home.Perhaps because he thought there was only one such thing, Regulus replaced it. The real "Horcrux" was now placed in this old house.

"Kreacher, can you show me that 'Horcrux'?" Minato no longer regards Kreacher as a servant, this smart and loyal elf is a part of the family, and he used it unconsciously The tone of the inquiry.Minato hadn't heard of "Horcruxes", but it wasn't a good thing, so it was better to deal with them earlier.

Unexpectedly, Kreacher became agitated again, "No, that thing is very evil, and it will hurt young master Malfoy." Although it was asking for help, it didn't want to hurt others, "Kreacher can't destroy it. Blame Kreacher for not being able to destroy it..."

The handle of the water door was attached to Kreacher's skinny arm, showing a reassuring smile. It was Konoha's golden flash, and it was the smile of the Fourth Hokage facing his companions, "It's okay, with Kreacher watching, I can protect you." What about me." Kreacher nodded blankly, and disappeared with a "pop".

Not long after, the elf came back and stood in the farthest corner, holding a golden locket in his hand.Minato looked amused, this house elf wanted to say it himself, so let him fool him, or it was leading him to ask it.Loyal and vigilant, he is a rare and excellent elf.

Without any further hesitation, Minato spread the drawn parchment on the ground, and signaled Kreacher to put the locket in the center of the array.

Seeing the magic circle drawn on the paper, Kreacher's eyes lit up. Maybe this young master can fulfill his young master's last wish!Without further ado, Kreacher obediently put the locket on it, and quietly retreated to the side of the water gate, paying attention to the next development.

As soon as the locket was put down, the magic circle reacted.This is a magic circle used to detect souls. Compared with wizards, ninjas who have no beliefs and scruples have a much deeper research on souls, so no ninja is stupid enough to slice his own soul.That is "essence", which is related to the root of chakra, and anyone who has refined chakra knows its importance.

The process of investigation went smoothly, and the vessel carrying the soul unexpectedly didn't have any defense against the spirit.As a result, Minato frowned. There was only such a small amount of incomplete soul, and it was hopeless. How many points did that guy divide himself into?

"Kreacher, is the basement of the Black family still usable?" According to the ancient inheritance, the basement is not used to store sundries, but is full of defenses, the safest and strongest place for a family.

"Yes, yes, young master Malfoy. Of course, of course it can be used." The elf's voice was full of excitement, and it knew that its wish for many years would be fulfilled.

"Take me there. Also, prepare these things. Two bottles of unicorn blood, two bottles of thestral blood, nine freshly picked black mandalas, and nine mermaid tears." Minato ordered to go down while making seals, " "Bang" sealed the locket, rolled up the scroll and handed it to Kreacher, "That's all, this one is for you to keep." He understood that the elf didn't feel completely at ease with him.

Kreacher is an excited, driven house-elf who does everything quickly, with high quality and efficiency, and is ready in less than half a day.After everything was ready, in the basement of Black's house, Minato dipped his fingers in blood and wrote the incantation he wanted. The silver unicorn blood and the black thestral blood were connected end to end, forming a cycle at last.Then there are mandala flowers and mermaid tears, two groups, three groups in a circle, evenly placed around the curse seal.

Done, "Kreacher."

Kreacher obediently handed over the scroll without a single extra note.

Unlocking the seal casually, Minato held the locket, ignoring the fluctuations of magic power transmitted from it, and pressed it on the three-wheeled hook jade depicted in the center of the curse seal, which was depicted by the blood of a silver-white unicorn.Letting go of his hand, Minato took out another crystal bottle, and the transparent liquid flowed in the transparent bottle, like water.These are the tears of a unicorn. Very few people have seen a unicorn shed tears. This is the one from three years ago. It was left after he healed and left. Now it's time to use it.

Open the cork, tilt the bottle body, transparent tears fall on the dark locket, meandering along the fine lines of the box body.The moment it came into contact with the unicorn blood below, the formation was activated, and white and black lights lit up one after another, reflecting a small area above the formation.

It's done, all that's left is to wait, to wait for this piece of spiritual body to be completely purified.It seemed that the screams of the soul could be heard, but neither Minato nor Kreacher paid attention.It was already dinner time after leaving the basement, and the stomach was empty, and Minato felt the passage of time, and a day had passed.

Kreacher, who had settled his mind, was obviously much more energetic. After preparing a sumptuous dinner for the water gate, he couldn't stop cleaning the old house up and down. Mrs. Walburga's portrait was wiped by Kreacher. It was so spotless that the old lady dodged for a while.

Minato only planned to rest for a few days before leaving. His little test was still in progress, and he always stayed in one place, but he was easy to find.He intends to visit the seaside cave in Klee's cut.There is no way not to care about it, the black lake full of corpses, Uncle Regulus is sleeping there.

Having prepared the necessary things, Watergate bid farewell to Kreacher and left 12 Grimmauld Place.The corpse poison of the Yin corpse is very dangerous to living things, you have to be careful, but you must not be injured.
