Chapter 78 Kreacher and the Locket

The night before Beauxbatons and the Durmstrang team came to Hogwarts, I was processing potion ingredients in the cellar, and I whispered to Draco, who was absent-minded beside me. "Draco, is there still no news of your father?"

"No... Mother wrote to say everything is fine... I don't know whether I want him to show up soon or as soon as possible." Draco frowned and cut open a toad's belly, "—you care about him so much ?”

"No, I was just wondering if it might be related to Lockhart." I tentatively said, "Maybe they are together?"

"Please, Malfoy would never do such a shameful thing as eloping." He gave me a look of contempt, then glared at me as if remembering something, "Are you trying to trick me?"

I just put on a serious face: "It seems that you already know that 'he' is not Lockhart. Have you ever thought about why 'he' has trouble with you? How will your actions affect your father? "

"Are you trying to persuade me to break up with Hermione?" Draco raised an eyebrow, "Don't tell me you think my father's disappearance is because I pursued Hermione - there is no relationship between the two!"

I was about to say something when suddenly there was a loud noise from Snape's office. We looked at each other, put down our work and knocked on the door: "Sir (Godfather), what's the matter?"

A chaotic voice came from inside: "Damn! You ruined my potion!!" "Save him...please Snape!" "What's going on?! What did this stupid dog do again? Human deeds?!" "He..." "It's all Kreacher's fault! The young master went to the cave to find the little master's body... It's all Kreacher's fault! Kreacher is a bad elf! Kreacher didn't finish the little master Kreacher's last wish! Kreacher..." "That's enough! Shut up—"

"What's wrong with Sirius?!" I kicked open the door, and the first thing that caught my eyes was the messy Sirius, who was soaked and dripping as if he had just been picked up from the water, and his clothes were torn into pieces. The rags were covered with scorched marks everywhere, completely invisible, even more embarrassing than when he had just escaped from Azkaban.Scratch marks can be seen from those ragged places, and even a piece of flesh was bitten off from the shoulder, exposing white bones. His eyes were closed and his face was moaning in pain. On Lupine.

Lupine's face was distorted because of fear and distress, but he was at a loss and couldn't find a good place to support him, and he was even more afraid of aggravating his condition. "Harry?" Lupine spotted me with a pale face.

"What's wrong with him?!" I rushed forward, but Snape grabbed me by the collar.

"Potter! Calm down! Draco, hold him, and drag him out if you keep arguing." Draco carried out Snape's order well.

"He's my godfather!"

"I know this better than you—if you want him to meet Merlin, just jump there." Snape turned around neatly and picked through the hundreds of medicine bottles in the cabinet, "Lupine, get rid of him." The rags on his body." Lupine wanted to take off Sirius's clothes with trembling hands, but he was always worried about hurting him, so he didn't make any moves. Snape, who returned as quickly as possible, scolded "idiot" The wand not only stripped Sirius naked, but laid it down on the couch-turned-bed.

The moment they saw him clearly, everyone gasped. He was injured much more seriously than expected. Those scratches that seemed to be injured by sharp nails were full of black blood, and along the wound began Rotten, with black and blue pinch marks on the calf, as if it had been dragged to hell by countless hands...

"...Maybe one of you can explain where he went and what he did?" Snape's voice became softer, the more he expressed his inner anger, he squeezed Sirius' chin and poured down bottle after bottle of potion , the rude action made Lupine feel distressed and did not dare to stop.

Kreacher, who couldn't find a blank wall and could only hit the fireplace, finally stopped and began to narrate: "The little master stole the evil locket from the cave behind the Dark Lord's back (it gasped) , he... he drank the poison... there were many, many infernal corpses (it shuddered again remembering something)... the little master handed that evil thing to Kreacher before he died, and asked Kreacher to destroy it , and then he...he also..." Kreacher began to scream, "Kreacher is a bad elf! Kreacher didn't fulfill the little master's last wish! Kreacher..."

"Little master? Regulus?" Snape cast a Silencing Charm in the direction of the house-elf, sneered and began to apply bottle after bottle of medicine to the wound on Sirius, who seemed to be taken by this rude The movement hurts and twitches from time to time, unable to make any sound, "So this stupid dog is guilty? Regret? Recklessly ran to find the body of his dear brother and almost died? - impulsive, reckless, stupid, Self-righteous Gryffindor!!"

"Uh... Sirius... all right?" I moved closer cautiously.

"Not dead, your dog godfather. But you won't get a chance to see him kick around and cause trouble for the next few months—where's Albus? He wonders what his precious thugs are doing behind his back?" Nepe shot Lupine a sneering glance.

"Sirius just didn't want him to know... That's why he didn't let me go to Madam Pomfrey..." Lupine tightly held Sirius' relatively intact hand.

"Has your only brain been assimilated by a stupid dog Lupine?" Snape stared at him with feigned surprise, "You guys still want to hide it from Dumbledore?!" Lupine stared at Sirius' painful face , without saying a word.

In the end, it was of course impossible to hide this matter from Dumbledore. He thought he would be disappointed with Sirius, but unexpectedly he admired Sirius' behavior very much and let him rest until he recovered. Losing the best combat effectiveness in more than a month, other things seem to be developing for the better.For example, Kreacher, the house elf, originally hated and disliked Sirius, because he risked his life to find Regulus, but turned to true respect, and promised to help us, but he was unwilling to put Slytherin pendant The box was handed over, and it said it would destroy it itself.

What was even more unexpected was that when Lupine brought Sirius to find Snape, the potion that should have been destroyed turned into a real antidote by mistake!

"So you mean me to drink it?" The G&S quartet assembled by the Black Lake, and Draco took the potion bottle I handed him, "But I think I'm normal."

"It's normal to drink it and you'll be fine. You dare not prove your feelings for Hermione?" Ron looked at him contemptuously.

"The aggressive method doesn't work for me, red-haired lion." Draco smirked at Ron, but still opened the cork.

But at this moment, Hermione put her arms around Draco's neck, kissed him lightly on the lips, smiled, "Draco, thank you." Then she got up and walked towards Hogwarts Castle without looking back.

"What... what's wrong?" Draco blushed suddenly to the ears, this was the first time Hermione kissed him actively, and he was at a loss as he looked at Hermione's leaving back foolishly.

I glanced at Ron, he nodded to me, followed Hermione, I grabbed Draco who finally reacted and wanted to chase after him, compared the bottle of potion: "Drink it first."

The latter gulped it down without saying a word, almost choking on it: "Oh, Merlin, this taste... When will the taste of Godfather's potion improve..." He raised his head abruptly, staring at the potion in a daze. Watching where Hermione disappeared, his expression went blank.

"Draco?" I patted his shoulder worriedly.He lowered his eyes, spread his hands silently, and stared dimly at the ring on his left hand. "...Draco?"

He slapped my hand away and sat back on the spot, "Leave me alone...quiet...please..." His voice was trembling.I clenched my fist and took a step back, gritted my teeth and turned to leave.

Is bloodline really so important... Maybe the antidote shouldn't be brewed... Why do you have to think so much, what Voldemort, what Death Eaters, what a fart in front of two people who love each other!I kicked the stones hard, only to hear a chirp.When I recovered, I realized that I had come to Hagrid's cabin, and Bacobeak was staring at me with his head tilted.

"Good afternoon." I bowed to it, and it returned a salute, "Bacobeak..." I lightly stroked its feathers, leaned my head on it, and smiled wryly, "You never need to think so much..."

"Harry Potter!" Dobby's figure suddenly appeared in front of me, startling me, Bacobeak straightened up vigilantly and spread his wings, I hurriedly comforted him. "Harry Potter, this is bad, Kreacher is going to throw the locket into the Black Lake!"

"What?!" I was taken aback, "How do you know? Where is it now?!"

"Kreacher heard that there was a giant octopus in the Black Lake, and he wanted to use it to destroy the locket! Kreacher has already Apparated away, and Dobby can't stop it! So hurry to Harry Potter! Dobby Can't stop! Dobby is too stupid! Dobby is a bad elf!" screamed Dobby and started banging on the stakes.

"Damn it! That idiot! Has its head been stepped on by a troll?!" I cursed and grabbed Dobby, "Dobby, go tell Snape and Dumbledore, go!" A house-elf with more than enough history to tell, I think Horcruxes are safe in this loyal house-elf--I'm crazy too!It's hard to find the locket. If it falls into the mouth of a giant octopus and is destroyed, causing Voldemort's soul piece to wake up early and then run around the world, how can I find it? !

My eyes fell on Bacobeak, and my eyes lit up, "Now I can only rely on you." Bacobeak rubbed my hand, and I turned and rode on, "Fly to the Black Lake, hurry up!" It Hissing up to the sky, he carried me into the sky.

Not in the mood to enjoy the fun of flying, I noticed a huge wave several stories high in the middle of the black lake from a distance. Something thicker than a basilisk slapped the lake surface, and immediately splashed a higher water curtain. There are countless black shadows dancing and shuttling, which makes people shudder.

A small figure floated above the huge waves, and I was shocked: "Kreacher! Stop!!" Something reflected the light of the setting sun and hurt my eyes. The waves were almost shot down by those dancing black shadows, and I hugged its neck tightly in fear.

"Kreacher has fulfilled the wish of the little master! The little master can feel at ease, and Kreacher can also be at ease!" Kreacher smiled at the huge waves and disappeared into the air.

What about the locket? !Throw it down?Throw it down!I just let Barcobeak lead me to hover around the water curtain.What should we do now?Open up that octopus?Looking at the water curtain like a fortress, I felt powerless, so I patted Bacobeak and said, "Fly higher." Let the whole scene come into my eyes, and stared intently at the water curtain gradually sinking into the black lake, for fear that there would be a beam of black light Projected from there.I thought desperately, maybe I just fell into the lake, otherwise why didn't the octopus respond at all?

Suddenly there were a few strange hissing sounds from a distance, and Barcobeak immediately became excited, and even ignored my orders, he plunged straight into the clouds, sprinted, spun, and crazily performed a series of difficult movements, setting off a strong air current that made him I couldn't open my eyes, I lay down my body to suppress the screaming, there was no protective measures in the sky, and no one could help me, so I had to stick to its back as close as possible, and absurd thoughts even popped up in my mind—is it the soul? The flakes entered Barcobeak's body so Voldemort wanted to take the opportunity to throw me off and kill me? !
