Living peacefully at Hogwarts

Chapter 186 Exploring the House
The sapphire-like eyes glowed faintly and coldly in the darkness, meeting those eyes, Kreacher only felt that it was difficult to breathe, and it was even difficult for him to move his fingers.

Klein Grindelwald?

A name I've never heard of.
But this pressure surpassed that of the Dark Lord who took him to the cave!

"Then I'll interrupt."

Steady Kreacher, Klein walked towards the depths of the old house on his own, Dumbledore was stunned for a second, and followed.

In any case, they did this villain. Although it was a bit disgraceful, but for the sake of Voldemort's Horcrux, they didn't care so much at this time.

The inside of the house is very old, and it looks similar to the outside. It can be seen that although Kreacher tried his best to clean every corner, due to his own reasons, he still failed to take care of everything as he did when he was young.

The porch was a long corridor with peeling wallpaper, walls flanked by gas lamps and snakelike cobweb chandeliers and chandeliers.

A staircase led upstairs, where age-blackened portraits hung on the walls, including a gigantic portrait of Walburga Mrs. Black.

When Klein and Dumbledore came up to the portrait, she stared into those little eyes and started screaming and cursing them in the most horrifying voice.

The people in the other portraits listened and started screaming too.

"Quiet."

The noise was really disturbing, Klein snapped his fingers and instantly erased all the sound.

Dumbledore breathed a sigh of relief and stroked his gray beard.

The noise made by Mrs. Black is really unfriendly to the ears of the elderly~
"I feel very homely here, with the classic snake yard decoration style."

Most of the surrounding decorations are giant snakes, which is in line with Slytherin's aesthetic.In the common room and Salazar Slytherin's chamber of secrets, Klein had seen similar patterns countless times.

It can only be said that the Black family's admiration for the Slytherin concept has been engraved in their bones.

I don't know how such an uneasy guy like Sirius appeared in such a family.

Although evaluating from an outsider's point of view is a bit like standing up and talking, but to be honest, the decline of such a large family business in the Black family definitely has a lot to do with Sirius, the prodigal son.

"Should we search separately, or..."

At the end of the corridor are two paths, one going up and one going down.

Klein spoke to Dumbledore in a questioning tone.

"I'll go down and have a look, you go up."

Almost without thinking, Dumbledore made a decision in his mind.

This division of labor is the most efficient. After all, they broke into other people's ancestral houses without permission, so it's not good to disturb them too much.

"Ah."

Klein nodded, said goodbye to Dumbledore, and walked up the stairs to the second floor.

The wall at the back of the stairs was covered with the heads of house-elves that looked like specimens—such a bad taste made Klein curl his lips.

The second floor is the living room.

It can be seen that the place was once regal and refined, with a large window overlooking the street in front of the house.The large fireplace in the living room is flanked by two ornate glass cabinets, and one wall is covered in a tapestry of the Blake family tree.

Not interested in the blood of the Black family, Klein swept across the rest of the living room.

His eyes skipped over the old sofa, the curtains covered with foxes, and finally, he focused on the glass cabinets on both sides of the fireplace.

The glass case was filthy and the items of dark magic inside were odd.

Those items included: a rusty short sword, animal claws, coiled snakeskin, an opal-encrusted crystal vial containing blood, a silver biting snuffbox containing sarcoma powder, a multi-legged Tweezers-like utensils, quaint music boxes, dusty Order of Merlin [-]st Class, and solid gold lockets.

"It's too easy."

Klein smiled, tapped the glass cabinet with his wand, released the protective magic on it, and reached out to take out the locket.

Finely crushed emeralds form an "S" on the face of the box, unmistakable, this is the real Slytherin locket, Voldemort's Horcrux!
"How many times is this?"

He muttered to himself, and casually put the locket into the pocket of his robe.

Tom Riddle's Diary, The Serpent, Ravenclaw's Diadem, Slytherin's Locket.
After doing the math, this was already the fourth Horcrux that passed through his hands, Voldemort's.

"Why don't you get the black gemstone ring and Hufflepuff's gold cup someday."

For Klein, who has a little obsessive-compulsive disorder, this is not a very difficult task.

After thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem to be a disadvantage if you put a treasure like the resurrection stone in your hand~
Well, there is some room for maneuver.

Klein scratched his eyebrows, and returned to the first floor by the same route—he didn't continue to go upstairs. Now that the most important thing has been found, it's not easy to rummage in other people's homes.

"Principal, I have found Voldemort's Horcrux. I will wait for you at the stairs on the first floor."

Through the "secret spell", Klein and Dumbledore got in touch.

In the basement, Dumbledore, who was rummaging through the cupboard, was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help showing a strange look on his face.

It only took less than 10 minutes, and the efficiency is too high
However, this is a good thing.

The old man didn't suspect him, so he quickly replied.

"Okay, I know."

After speaking, he hurried back to the first floor, just in time to see Klein leaning on the stairs with a relaxed expression.

"What about things?"

As it was about Voldemort, Dumbledore had to be more cautious. He took a few steps forward and looked at Klein eagerly.

"This is it."

Taking out the locket from his pocket, Klein smiled.

"Don't worry, principal, you can't leave."

He is too familiar with Voldemort's soul fragments. One piece was sacrificed to Baimon, and the other piece was reshaped by Tom. How could he, who is rich in experience, not feel what is hidden in this locket.

"Ah."

After receiving the locket, Dumbledore carefully read it several times before he felt relieved.

"It should be this right."

Horcruxes, he finally found another Voldemort's Horcruxes. According to the "How to Make Horcruxes" in the Dark Magic Book, Voldemort can split his soul up to six times.

Now he has two Horcruxes in his hand, and Klein also solved one.

In other words, if you find the other three, you will have no worries at all.

If Klein could hear Dumbledore's voice, then he would definitely tell the old headmaster that although three things are three things, they are not three things as imagined.
However, there is still a chance to talk about these side details, let the old man be busy for a while.

After all, sitting in the office and drinking honey tea is not good for your health.
