The Christmas dinner in Black's old house was very rich. Even though Narcissa hadn't been in the kitchen for a long time, her craftsmanship still made the male wizards talk about it for two or three days, and Draco was the most active one. Haha Leigh was always on the sidelines, which made Draco even more excited.

After Christmas night, the Malfoys stayed on as a matter of course, and Kreacher finally began to perform the duties of a family house-elf.He started to work diligently, and cleaned out the entire third floor to entertain the Malfoy family. Not only that, he also solved the problem of cooking.

Except that he didn't clean Regulus' room, Black's old house seemed to have regained its youth.

The three adults talked very politely in such an environment, and among the three children, Harry and Draco had gone crazy, and they shared their Christmas presents, the most popular of which was a row of Sky train, that train will follow the wand in series in the air, and then release small firework seeds or flower seeds continuously. Once Harry was sprinkled with a head of flower seeds, and the next moment his head was covered with big flowers The large rhododendrons were drowned.

The joyful and peaceful atmosphere in the house obviously also affected the old Mrs. Black. She obviously seemed much more sensible. After talking with Narcissa these days, the old lady finally regained a bit of her dignified and proud appearance in life, with self-control And restraint clearly came back to her as well.

At the very least, once when Gerald passed by the hall to pick up a courier at the door, the old Mrs. Black looked at this little witch with a blemish, just snorted coldly, and then turned her head away.

On the third day of Christmas, the Malfoy family was finally ready to go back. Spending Christmas in Black’s old house was originally under Narcissa’s insistence. Now that so much time has passed, Malfoy should return to his manor to start normal This is a necessary step for pure-blood families living in the wizarding world to connect with each other.

However, Gerrard's question about Klicher made it impossible for the Malfoy family to leave.

"What did you say?! This is the Horcrux of the Dark Lord?!" Narcissa looked at the gemstone box of a small snake inlaid with emeralds on the table in shock.

"Yes, this is the result of my search since I came to this house." Gerald looked calm, and he poked the gem box with his wand, "Slytherin's pendant, the black magic detection spell A strong reaction, and it's about the soul, so it should be right."

"Wait, Gerald, so you've been holding my Invisibility Cloak for this thing since you got to Black's old house?!" Harry asked, and moved away from the box.

"Yes, in fact, Klicer's attitude has aroused my attention from the very first day. Even if Regulus died in the end and was the last Patriarch recognized by the Black family, Kricher should not be concerned about Regulus' relationship. The news is so tense. I asked about Regulus on the first day I came here, because his death is very strange." Gerald glanced and stood aside because of the house-elf spell Kerry continued: "Not only that, there is no portrait of Regulus left, which obviously shows one point, that is, the wizard of the Black family died unexpectedly, and died of an accident that left no one in time to react. By accident."

"According to my investigation and the confessions of some Death Eaters, the news of Regulus' death was when Voldemort was in full swing,"—— Hearing the words Voldemort, the three adult wizards trembled, but the young wizard They didn't react but stared at Gerald closely, and Kerry didn't respond because he couldn't move, but his eyes were filled with panic for a moment—"Everyone thinks that Regulus' death is the result of the Order of the Phoenix or something else. What did the opponents do, because Regulus obviously has a very important position. He is the last head of the purest Black family, and at the same time he is connected with almost all pure-blood families. Regulus has a weak character and also has The usual paranoid qualities of the Black family, such a person is very easy to grasp, and his death is a very big blow to Voldemort. Of course, this may make Voldemort think that Regulus' death is aimed at him, It was challenging his authority. Judging from Voldemort's reaction at the time, he obviously thought so. But, I don't think it's more than that."

Everyone listened to Gerrard's analysis in silence, Narcissa was especially serious.

"Look at Voldemort's reaction after receiving the news of Regulus' death, launching attacks one after another, and then secretly looking for someone, in order to determine what news..."

"What proof do you have that Voldemort was looking for someone?!" Narcissa just stared at Gerald.

"You can know by contacting the trajectory of the attackers he designated. Except for those Muggles and half-bloods, some of the pure-bloods do not disagree with him or openly oppose him, such as the Billy family, or this Hunter. , and these wizards have not done anything against Voldemort in the past," Gerrard turned out a stack of newspapers, which were old, yellow, and dusty, "but these people have one thing in common... that That is, they are all the wizards or friends that Slughorn saw last." In order to find out this information, Gerald really searched for materials for a long time, drew a picture of the relationship between the characters, and then slowly deliberated. from.

"..." The wizards looked at Gerrard, not understanding the connection between them.

"Professor Slughorn, as the dean of Slytherin, needless to say about his resume before his disappearance, and Voldemort, that is, Tom Riddle, was once the professor's beloved student, or the most beloved student. This is This professor gave Riddle a lot of help, not only helping him establish his prestige in Slytherin, but also teaching this future mysterious man in various unorthodox knowledge." Gerrard said quickly, He is no longer interested in long-winded explanations, "Once you understand these, it is easy to speculate why Voldemort would look for this person, why this person completely disappeared from everyone's sight when Voldemort was in full swing, even Voldemort couldn't find it, and after a few years of Slughorn's disappearance, after the news of the death of Mr. Black, why did Voldemort look for this man frantically-this can only show that Voldemort has an important message or It is said that the professor is in the hands of this news, and this news can almost be said to be fatal to Voldemort."

"And after our school life for a year and a half, it became clear that the news was about why the soul of the mysterious man was torn apart... and the existence of those artifacts after the shattering. In the previous connection reasoning with my brothers, Voldemort obviously He prefers commemorative and representative things as the habitat of his scattered souls, so the objects of the creators of Hogwarts thinking are obviously very representative." Gerald put his wand on top of the locket, with a look on his face Innocent said: "I just have a guess in my heart, so I want to play a game of finding objects when I'm invisibility cloak and cleaning the house."

Everyone looked at the locket with serious expressions on their faces.

"It's just that I didn't expect that I found it in the sundry closet. It seems that Regulus, Mr. Black is not broken to the bone like Sirius said, and he took the risk of death to put this A locket that should have been well kept in a mysterious place has been stolen... worthy of Sirius' brother, and a brave man."

"What the hell is going on?!" Sirius roared, his angry look was really scary, Draco took a step back as if startled, and then was pulled behind by Big Malfoy.

"The next thing..." Gerald waved his wand to undo the binding spell on Klicher, "You can ask your house elf, I think he should know the whole process."

After the spell was lifted, Krich shrank into a ball, covered his ears, tears flowed out, and the snot dripped down on his dirty robe, screaming in a shrill voice He said: "I can't say--the little master has confessed, I can't say--Kricher is a useless elf, Kerry is damned--Kricher has no way to destroy that evil thing--the little master has confessed —Little Master is dead—Klitsch can't die—Klitsch can't say—”

Madam Black's voice suddenly sounded outside, resounding throughout the room, "Kritch—I remembered—the last time I saw Regulus was when you went out with him—but in the end only you came back— You traitor, what the hell have you done?!"

"Klitsch! I order you! Speak everything! As the head of House Black!" Sirius took out his wand and pointed it at Klitsch.

As if he was about to let go of some heavy burden, Krich looked at the wizards around him with big eyes, took a deep breath, and began to talk about the situation that day.

From Regulus thinking solemnly in Black's old house, to the middle when the little Mr. Black handed the locket to Krich and explained that it would drop the locket, and then he was dragged into the bottom of the lake by the Infernal Corpse. Kritch returned to Black's old house and began to try to destroy the locket but was always unsuccessful. In the end, he had no choice but to hide it from being found by the wizard.

Klicer was crying uncontrollably while talking, Narcissa was comforted by Lucius in his arms, Sirius had a serious face, and his tightly clenched fists represented the anger in his heart now, Harry and Draco both Surprised and moved by his uncle's heroic actions, only Gerald listened calmly while taking notes.

"Is Regulus still at the bottom of the water now..." Narcissa asked at the end, her tears could no longer be stopped. It can be said that her beloved little brother can't rest in peace even if he dies, his soul will be burned by Yin Huo Roasting, you will never be able to fall into Merlin's embrace.

"...Tell me the location, Kricht, I will bring Regulus back." Sirius said this after a moment of silence. He has the best experience of darkness and gloom. For many years, Sirius thought he would have gone crazy if he hadn't survived the memories of school and being a big dog.

Now, even though he has been released from prison and his reputation has been restored, Sirius still feels like he is in a prison cell when he is alone, and the influence of Azkaban on him has penetrated into his soul...but in Harry In front of him, he still pretended to be normal and happy, and he didn't want Harry to worry about him.

So, for his younger brother who was completely different from what he had imagined, all kinds of emotions in Sirius' heart were churning. He could only clench his fists fiercely to stop himself from yelling and smashing things in the room to vent.

As soon as he thought of Regulus—in his memory, he was still a cowardly teenager—sinking alone in the water... Sirius couldn't stand it.

He decided to take his brother home.

Give him a grave.
