"Master Sirius ran away. It would be nice to leave, because he is a bad boy. His unruly behavior hurts my mistress. But Master Regulus has self-esteem. He knows the surname of Black and him. What does a pure bloodline mean. For many years, he often talked about the Dark Lord. The Dark Lord wanted to make wizards no longer need to hide, but to come out to rule Muggles and Muggle offspring... When Master Regulus was sixteen years old , Joined the organization of the Dark Lord, he is so proud, so proud, so happy, able to work for..."

"One year later, one day, Master Regulus came to the kitchen to visit Kreacher, and he said..."

The old elf shook faster.

"...He said the Dark Lord wants a little elf."

"The Dark Lord wants a little elf?" Hermione asked, looking back at Fleur, she was also confused.

"Oh, yes," Kreacher said painfully, "Master Regulus contributed to Kreacher. This is an honor, Master Regulus said, it is the glory of himself and Kreacher. Kreacher must go Do all the things the Dark Lord wants him to do... and then go back-go home."

Kreacher shook faster, his breathing turned into sobbing.

"So Kreacher went to the Dark Lord. Instead of telling Kreacher what he was going to do, the Dark Lord took Kreacher to a cave by the sea. It was a big cave with a large black lake in it..."

Hermione and Fleur immediately thought of the cave they had been to before, and everything was right.

"...There is a boat..."

Of course there is a boat, they know that boat, the ghostly green boat, then Voldemort tested the protection of the Horcrux in this way: with the help of an insignificant life, a house elf...

"There is a stone-stone basin on the island, full of potions. The black-the dark lord makes Kreacher drink..."

The elf trembled all over.

"Kreacher drank, and saw a lot of horrible sights while drinking... Kreacher's internal organs were on fire... Kreacher called Master Regulus to save him and the mistress, but the Dark Lord just laughed... ...He forced Kreacher to drink up the potion... He threw a locket into the empty basin... and filled the pot with the potion."

"Then the Dark Lord got on the boat and left, leaving Kreacher on the island..."

The three looked at each other, and the two girls finally understood the effect of the potion. Fortunately, they transformed the corpse at the time.

"Kreacher needs water. He climbed to the edge of the island to drink the water in the Black Lake... Many hands, dead hands, came out of the water and dragged Kreacher down..."

"How did you escape?" Hermione asked.

After that experience, she found that Muggle weapons were very useful against corpses, but Kreacher was just a house elf.

Kreacher lifted his ugly head and looked at the three with big bloodshot eyes.

"Master Regulus said that Kreacher would go home," he said.

"I know--but how did you get rid of the corpse?" Furong asked again.

"Master Regulus said that Kreacher should go home." Kreacher repeated.

"I know, but—" Fleur asked again, and Hermione spoke.

"Oh, it's obvious that he has Apparated! The magic of the elves is different from the magic of the wizards, as if they can Apparate or Apparate at Hogwarts, but we can't."

There was a moment of silence, and Furong recalled this sentence. How could Voldemort make such a mistake?

Just as he thought of this, Hermione spoke again, her voice cold.

"Of course, the Dark Lord is dismissive of the behavior of house elves, like all purebred wizards who treat elves as beasts... He never thought that elves might have magic that he doesn't have."

"The highest law for house elves is the command of the master," Kreacher said in singing, "The master told Kreacher to go home, and Kreacher went home..."

"So, you did what you were ordered to do, did you?" Hermione asked gently. "You didn't violate the order at all?"

Kreacher nodded, shaking faster.

"Then what happened after you came back?" Fleur asked. "What did Regulus say after you told the master?"

"Master Regulus is very worried, very worried," Kreacher hissed. "Regulus told Kreacher to hide and not leave the house." Then... after a while... One night, Regulus Master Luss came to the cupboard and found Kreacher. Master Regulus looked weird, unlike usual, Kreacher could see that he was in a mess... Master asked Kreacher to take him to the cave, the cave where Kreacher and the Dark Lord had been...

"He asked you to drink the potion?" Furong asked disgustedly.

Kreacher shook his head, crying bitterly. Hermione covered her mouth: she seemed to guess something.

"Ray-Master Regulus took out a locket from his pocket, just like that of the Dark Lord," Kreacher said, tears running down the sides of his long nose. "He called Kreacher. Hold it, and after the stone basin is dry, replace the locket..."

Kreacher's sobbing became harsh and harsh, and the three of them had to concentrate to understand him.

"He ordered-Kreacher to leave-leave him alone. He told Kreacher-to go home-not to tell the mistress-what he did-but must destroy-the first locket. Then. He drank it-drank the potion-Kreacher replaced the locket-and watched... Master Regulus... was dragged underwater... and..."

"Oh, Kreacher!" Hermione wailed, and she cried, kneeling beside the elf, trying to comfort him. The elf stood up immediately and hid straight back, with obvious disgust.

"The Mudblood touched Kreacher, Kreacher didn't allow it, what would the hostess say?"

Then, before anyone sneered at him, Kreacher was met with retribution, and his nose grew longer, and it was hanging down to his waist, so he shut up immediately and looked at them with a wince.

"Then, you brought the locket home," Ye Ting continued to ask, determined to understand what happened, "Did you try to destroy it?"

"Kreacher can't leave a trace on it," the elf said sadly. "Kreacher tried all the methods, all the methods, but none, none succeeded... There are so many powerful magics on the box. Kreacher believes that it can only be destroyed from the inside, but it cannot be opened... Kreacher punishes himself, tries again, punishes himself, tries again. Kreacher fails to execute the order, Kreacher cannot destroy the locket! The hostess went crazy with grief, because Master Regulus disappeared, Kreacher could not tell her what happened, no, because Master Regulus banned—forbidden him to talk to his family—the family members say the rock—the cave What's inside..."

Kreacher couldn't make a sound. Hermione looked at Kreacher and burst into tears, but she didn't dare to touch him again. Even Fleur, who had no affection for Kreacher, seemed a little sad.

Ye Ting stepped forward to hug Hermione, hugged her and finally let the girl stop crying.

Item 0316

In the end, at the request of the three, Kreacher told them where to hide the locket.

Next, Ye Ting found Black again.

"Is there anything you need in the Black family's collection?" After listening to Ye Ting's request, Black agreed with a bold gesture: "Come with me, the Black family's proud collections are all here. , I wanted to clean it up a long time ago, if there is anything you want, you can just take it away."

Black led them to a glass-door cabinet.

This is one of the places where the Black family's collections have been collected for hundreds of years. It is filled with various items. The three keenly noticed that a large part of these collections are magic items.

However, Black, who is quite contemptuous of the family's pure-blood history, does not seem to care about these collections. These collections are piled up in a disorderly manner, which brings trouble to finding the locket-they have to remove these collections one by one.

The difficulty of this task is much higher than imagined, because many things in the cabinet seem reluctant to leave the dusty shelf.

Sirius was bitten fiercely by a silver snuff box, and within a few seconds, the bitten hand formed an ugly hard shell, as if wearing a rough brown glove.

"It's okay." As he said, he looked at the hand with interest, and then tapped it with his magic wand. The skin on the hand returned to normal again. "There must be sarcoma powder in it."

He threw the snuff box aside, and Hermione picked it up with interest. She hadn't seen sarcoma powder yet.

They found a particularly ugly silver utensil, like a pair of multi-legged tweezers. Furong just picked it up. It crawled up Furong's arm like a spider, and wanted to pierce her skin.

Ye Ting grabbed it and shot it to death with a book called "Born and Noble: Genealogy of Wizards".

There is also a music box. As soon as the clockwork is twisted, Ding Ding Dongdong’s ominous music is faintly played. Then they both find themselves inexplicably weak and lethargic. Fortunately, Hermione’s brain is clear, hurry up. Close the lid.

There is also a heavy souvenir box that no one can open. A lot of antique seals. In addition, in a gray box, the medals Ye Ting and Hermione were very familiar with. It was a Merlin first-class medal, awarded to Sirius' grandfather, and rewarded him for his "contribution to the Ministry of Magic." ".
