[HP] When a son dresses up as an old man

Of course, James is definitely not the only one who cares about Sirius in this world, Albus is number one, and Sirius is one of his fierce generals.But it's a pity that he, the leader, is only second in the other party's heart.For Sirius, the most intimate person was James Potter.No, now I don't know what James said to Sirius, so the kid put down a bunch of things at hand and started disappearing.

Albus knew that Sirius would never disappear for no reason, and the most direct way to find out the truth was to ask James. Although James is a member of the Order of the Phoenix, due to his status, he has always acted carefully and acted neutrally to the outside world, so no one noticed.

"So, you hid Sirius because Voldemort wanted to deal with you." Albus took a sip of tea and said that his relationship with James was very special... I remember that many years ago, this kid was still studying at Hogwarts, Like every ordinary Gryffindor student, Albus didn't look at him differently, the impression remained that this kid was a troublemaker.

Then one day, James came to him and told him that he was not James, but another person... At that time, he also said that James was crazy!In the end, the other party revealed the shocking secret of the horcrux. At first Albus didn't believe it. It wasn't until he found the horcrux in the Room of Requirement that he really admired James. This was the opportunity for them to know each other.

James has become the heir of the Potter family, and has been secretly funding the Order of the Phoenix, and at the same time making suggestions for the Order of the Phoenix. For Albus, the appearance of James is equivalent to a big pie falling from the sky. Albus was amazed by James' ability to predict and predict repeatedly, as well as his familiarity with Voldemort's deployment.

"Yes, Voldemort originally planned to take advantage of this opportunity to drag the Potter family into the water. He has always wanted to deal with me, and the assassins have sent no one knows how many batches. It doesn't matter if he deals with me, but the Potter family has a deep foundation and a strong background. It's too wide to be implicated, so I hid Sirius." Apart from Albus, only Sirius knew his identity as a member of the Order of the Phoenix, not even Lupine, let alone Peter.It's not that James is suspicious, but he thinks that the fewer people involved in this matter, the better.

"Voldemort can't just stop here. If you defuse his move, he will definitely send someone else to deal with you." Albus understood Voldemort's style.

"I'm fine, don't worry about me." James smiled easily.

"Albus, I have a list here. The people on it are dangerous, and they are the ones Voldemort plans to get rid of next." James handed a letter to Albus and did everything he could. These people made their own creations.

Albus took the list and took a deep look at James, it was inside news again.All along, Albus knew that James had an insider with Voldemort, and that insider had a high status! James has been refusing to reveal the identity of that person, and even Albus doesn't know who that person is, which shows how much effort James has put in to protect that person. James also asked him for a promise that after the war, he would save someone and ask Albus for help.That person was probably the mysterious spy that Albus had been guessing all along.

"Is there any new progress regarding the Horcrux?" Albus asked.

"Not yet, but it's coming soon. Recently, I have to pay attention to the house elf of the Black family, Kreacher." James didn't remember it clearly. It was probably 1979, that is, this year. Horcruxes destroyed.But Kreacher tried his best to destroy the pendant, and kept it until the end.

Prophet again? Albus smiled.

"Maybe you should come to the school to apply, James, we are currently applying for prophecy teachers, and I think you have great hopes." Albus joked.

Hearing that James hesitated for a moment, did he finally come?I wonder what prediction Trelawney will make this time?Without the Harry Potter who is doomed not to exist, will there be a new savior? Trelawney is eccentric and crazy, but sometimes he can make accurate predictions.

"I'd better forget about it, the ancestors of the Potter family don't have the blood of fortune tellers, so don't mislead their children." James said.

"If you want me to say that you are more effective than a hundred prophets." Albus sighed, and it was clear that Voldemort's fate was at the end of his life. Just when the Order of the Phoenix was at a loss, James unexpectedly appeared.

After James learned about Hogwarts' application for a prophet from Albus, he had been paying attention to the progress of the matter, especially Trelawney.

Perhaps, in the bottom of James' heart, he hoped that a savior would appear. James didn't know much about Snape's plan, and Snape didn't volunteer, and he wouldn't ask. Voldemort was Slughorn's favorite student and a potions expert himself.Trying to deceive his eyes and make an invisible and chronic poison is very difficult.Once discovered, Snape would be dead without a place to die.

All James knew was that in order to concoct that potion, Snape had tried it every day for three years!He said that if he didn't even notice that he drank the potion, then Voldemort wouldn't notice either. Snape never took his body seriously!Now James was only thankful that Voldemort was still sane under Snape's treatment.He remembered that according to the original development, Voldemort should have gone insane by now, and killing people indiscriminately without sanity finally aroused public outrage in the magic world.But this time, because he slipped through the butterfly, Voldemort reused Snape in advance, avoiding the end of madness, and now he is still the calm and rational leader, and plans to expand his influence to Eastern Europe and America.

And at this moment, something happened to Lupine...

"How?" James hurried to the secret base of the Order of the Phoenix, and he would never take the risk of appearing here under normal circumstances.

Albus looked solemn, and Lupine, who had been unconscious for a long time, was lying on the hospital bed beside him, the dim light of the fire reflected his ashes-like face.

"...I have bad news, James." Albus' attitude said it all, and a heavy sigh echoed in the empty basement.

"No! Impossible!" James didn't want to believe it!This is impossible, how could Lupin die, he obviously... James was in a daze, thinking that Lupine still had decades to live!However, because of his arrival, everything has changed.is it him?It was he who killed Lupin... James sat beside Lupin in a daze, hearing the barely audible weak breathing of the other, watching the heaving and rising of his chest.

"There are a group of people chasing him outside now. St. Mungo is not safe, so I transferred him here. However, his injuries are too serious. I'm afraid, he won't last long."

"Why would someone hunt him down?" James wondered, was it Voldemort?No!wrong! Voldemort wouldn't give his mind to Lupin at all!Moreover, Voldemort was eager to find Sirius, and Lupine was one of the important clues, so he would not attack Lupine easily.So, who are those people?

"The situation is very confusing now. Those people seem... not to be Death Eaters, but rather some noble soldiers." Albus recalled the scene when he rescued Lupin.

James regained his composure for a moment, then stood up abruptly.Although he can't save Lupin, there is someone who can...

Regulus listened coldly to the reply from the kneeling man.

"Saved by Albus?" Regulus slapped the table suddenly, and the table shattered into pieces, and fell to the ground with an abrupt sound.

"Trash!" Regulus suppressed his anger, stood up and turned his back on the trembling men in black.

"Subordinates...subordinates expected that the man would not be able to survive such serious injuries." The man in black still withstood the pressure and said intermittently.

"you sure?"

"Sure!"

Regulus closed his eyes, his face was as calm as water, he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Is today's matter clean enough?" Regulus asked sternly.

"My lord can rest assured that no one has seen us except Albus Dumbledore."

"Go down, remember, don't let people see."

"Yes."

After everyone had left, Regulus disapparated from the dark room and returned to Black's house. The cup of hot coffee on the table was already cold, and no one noticed that the boy had ever left his room. Regulus tidied up his expression, with slightly green eyes and a smart yet kind expression, as if the gloomy and ruthless person just now was just a dream of everyone.

Sitting in front of the desk, Regulus opened the drawer and took out a yellowed photo from the dark compartment.It was four teenagers in their teens, playing around in the photo.This is the only photo of Sirius that exists in the family, and it was secretly hidden by Regulus, and the rest have been burned by his parents. Regulus' fingers carefully slid across the black-haired boy who smiled flamboyantly...Brother, I won't let anyone hurt you, not even myself.

Regulus recognized the person in the photo, it was Sirius' best friend... Regulus put the photo away carefully. The Lord did not entrust the task of cleaning the Order of the Phoenix to him but to Lucius. Indeed, such an important matter would naturally not be the turn of a nobody like him.But the Lord gave Regulus a more difficult task, at least for him, it was a head-on blow. The Lord asked him to find Sirius Black, and sent a henchman to monitor him!Now, his immediate supervisor was Severus Snape.

Find someone, what next? Regulus is a farsighted person, the next step after finding someone is to kill, he still has this foresight.Could it be that he had to kill his brother himself in the end? Regulus closed his eyes in pain.Why couldn't brother be a Slytherin like him? Regulus asked himself this more than once.

Since he was very young, his elder brother has always been his idol, because his elder brother is better than him in everything.Among other nobles, this would probably lead to a fight between brothers, but Regulus never showed any hostility towards Sirius because his brother was too good.On the contrary, he adores his brother so much, and his biggest wish is that his brother can talk to him properly.Yes, brother doesn't like him, brother doesn't like everyone in the Black family!Brother hated Slytherins... pity, he was a born Slytherin.

Sirius is very impulsive, and he often got into trouble when he was young. What Regulus does most often is to follow Sirius and help Sirius deal with the aftermath... When he was six years old, Sirius broke the crystal apple of the youngest son of the Maquer family. A favorite toy, Sirius ran away in fear.Regulus was only five years old at that time, and his first idea at that time was to design the elf of Maquer's house, slandering that the elf broke the crystal apple.Later, because of this reason, Sirius felt that he was insidious and cunning... There were countless such things, Sirius beat someone, and he was responsible for keeping his mouth shut. Sirius is at home, he is in charge of covering... Although Sirius never thinks his approach is good...

There was no way, Sirius was a Gryffindor, and he was a Slytherin... If it weren't for the war, it is likely that they would have lived like this forever, and for Regulus, this life was happy.But the reality is cruel, Sirius is gone after all, left him, left this home... Sirius is a real eagle, one day he will soar nine days away.Because of Sirius' betrayal, the Black family had to sacrifice someone to show their loyalty, and Regulus became the perfect candidate.At the age of 16, Sirius was free, and Regulus, who had just turned 15, became a Death Eater and branded the eternal mark on his arm... If this is the price for Sirius to be free, then Regulus is willing to do so.

Regulus admired Voldemort because he was a Slytherin, and as long as he was a Slytherin, it was impossible for him to be immune to Voldemort's charm.But if he had to choose between Voldemort and Sirius, Regulus would undoubtedly choose his brother.Just like every time his brother got into trouble, he would do everything possible to help him deal with the aftermath... This time, it was the same.

If my brother chooses to be a secret agent, it's nothing more than the other three people in the photo, Lupine, James, and Peter, but I don't know which one it is... Regulus' eyes flashed a fierce light, the things he can think of, Surely others can too.Maybe those few friends of my brother were reliable, but... Regulus never believed in the human heart.

As long as these three were dead, Sirius would be completely safe, and Voldemort would never find him again!The Loyalty Curse is not necessarily safe. Who knows if the so-called friendship can stand the test, and whether there will be any changes in people's hearts!As a Slytherin, Regulus believes that only the dead are safest!Now the Lord handed over the matter of dealing with James to Snape, that Snape was not easy to deal with, and now that Snape was his boss, he couldn't touch James for the time being...then he could only start with Lupine and Peter first!

The Lord hates people who show their sharpness too much. Snape and Malfoy are people who know how to hide their clumsiness, while a flamboyant idiot like Lestrange will never be reused.Over the years, he has also learned to hide his clumsiness. It should be said that from a very young age he knew how to make those in power treat him lightly. Regulus didn't believe that people like Snape and Malfoy didn't have exclusive power, so he also secretly supported a group of dead soldiers who were only loyal to him, but it was just a precautionary measure. He never thought that he would betray the Lord one day... Or maybe, At that time, he had already thought that one day he would do something unfaithful and unfilial for his brother.

Regulus gritted his teeth. If he killed these two people, his brother would definitely hate him... But now that he has done so, there is no turning back.

Compared to Regulus' disagreement, the other members of the Black family are very united. Orion has completely given up on Sirius. After hearing about Regulus' mission, he began to think of various ways to find Sirius and save the Black family.

"Regulus." Orion said earnestly.

"I know this must be very painful for you, but... our entire family has been harmed by him to what it is now, and we can no longer tolerate adultery!" Orion was cruel.

"I know, Father." Regulus just replied lightly.

"Your child has always been upright and thoughtful. Others only know that our family has a very talented eldest son who often ignores you. But as a father, I know that although your talent is not as good as Sirius, But his mind is much clearer, he is a person who can do great things!" Orion persuaded.

"Now our family can only be supported by you. Mr. Snape told me last time that he admired you very much. You must establish a good relationship with him. Both he and Malfoy are the most important people to the Lord. Now that Lucius married your sister, I'm also relieved. As for Snape, although he's weird, he holds a lot of status in the Lord's heart. Now that you've been assigned to his subordinates, you should discuss with him as much as possible. Complete the task as soon as possible..." Orion didn't notice Regulus's Absent-minded, he kept rambling on.

At this moment, what Regulus was thinking had nothing to do with what Orion said. He was thinking about his next move. Even if Lupine didn't die, he was still a useless person, so there was nothing to fear.The next step is how to find Peter, that Peter seems to be a coward, that kind of person deserves to stand beside my brother!

Also, now that he'd risked Lupine, would Snape notice?If he was aware of it, how would he explain to Voldemort and take the Black family out... Even, Regulus was thinking, if Voldemort was really furious, it would be okay to risk his life.

Looking at his gray-haired father, Regulus was full of apologies. He knew that the interests of the family were very important, but...he had grown up, and he also had people he wanted to protect.He is not as capable as his brother, he can't make any promises to others, he can only swear to himself that his magic wand will never be directed at his brother, he would rather commit suicide than put his brother in danger!
