"Lie!" Sirius yelled, clenched his wand and was about to rush forward. Lupine, who was standing beside him, ran up to stop him, but Sirius' bloodshot eyes widened and he struggled as if losing his mind , kept shouting, "You're lying! You must be lying!"

Sirius roared like this, Bella moved her gaze blankly to Sirius, her eyes seemed to be looking at Sirius but seemed out of focus, Bella sneered bitterly and said: "I'm surrounded by you, what do I have?" It is necessary to lie... My wish - to keep the last blood of the Black family and destroy the gold cup, the first one has been fulfilled, the second..." Bella said, turning her eyes to look at the quiet Unusual Dumbledore, "I can go to my vault and bring you the cup, Dumbledore, and you will swear you will destroy it."

"She's lying!" Sirius turned to Dumbledore suddenly, causing Lupine to almost lose his grip on him, and the two staggered a few steps towards Dumbledore, one with an unsteady center of gravity, and two with heavy weights He fell to the ground, but even so, Sirius still struggled to look up, showing two crazy eyes from the scattered hair, "Professor Dumbledore, she is a Death Eater! You can't trust a Death Eater!"

At this moment, Sylvia who was standing aside suddenly drew out her wand and pointed it at Sirius, and said a few spells that no one could understand, and there was no light and shadow effect when the spell was successfully cast, but Sirius suddenly stopped struggling, The whole person was pressed to the floor by Lupin as if he had no bones, and of course he did not scream hysterically.

"Emotional Stripping Curse." Withdrawing her wand, Sylvia shrugged to the other people who looked at her in surprise, "Ancient magic is difficult, but sometimes it is really useful. We can continue the topic, and I have stripped it off for the time being." Mr. Sirius' emotions, but he is still awake and fully capable of continuing to listen, his emotions are gone for the time being, and he still retains his reason." After speaking to everyone in the big room, Searle Via turned slightly, rolled her eyes at Camille, and added in a weak voice, "The premise is that if he is rational."

Sylvia and Camille were flirting with each other quietly, mocking Sirius in a low voice, but without Sirius yelling like crazy, the whole room became much quieter, and Dumbledore also Finally said: "Sounds very attractive, but we do need a little trust."

"Slytherin doesn't believe in verbal promises." Bella nodded very calmly, she spread her hands, and turned her eyes on Dumbledore, Snape, and even Sylvia who just used ancient magic, " Veritaserum, Legilimency, the Unbreakable Vow, or... what other cool ancient magic have you picked up lately? Go ahead."

"I'll get Veritaserum," Snape said curtly, and Dumbledore nodded in agreement.

"Alger." Sylvia called, and the elf butler appeared beside her with a slight crackling sound, "Please take Professor Snape out of the manor, and then..." Sylvia looked at the Looking suspiciously at Bella here, "Since Miss Black has a high chance of cooperating with us, I suggest that she should be treated with some basic respect, such as taking a hot bath and eating a little bit first. Alger, After sending off Professor Snape, you will come back and take Miss Black to the bathroom."

Alger bowed to Sylvia, walked to Snape's side, there was another slight explosion, and they disappeared immediately.

Sylvia continued to smile and said to Bella: "This is my manor, the real Slytherin manor. No one can enter or leave without my consent. But I believe that Miss Black will not escape, yes Is it?" Although there was a question at the end, Sylvia didn't feel that she needed an answer at all from the perfectly curved smile on Sylvia's face.

A noble lady's bathing time is very long, but Bella is no longer the noble little girl who lived a delicate life back then. She took a quick shower and even used a cleansing magic to directly put the The dirt accumulated by Zkaban is removed all at once.

When Bella followed the butler, who looked more like a Gringotts goblin than a house-elf, back to the big room where she woke up, the empty room had taken on a whole new look in the few minutes she had been in the shower. With exquisite carpets, comfortable sofa sets and matching coffee tables, it has become a place suitable for relaxing conversations.

"Please sit down, Miss Black, because the time is relatively short, I only prepared some simple butter buns and omelettes for you." Sylvia said, pointing to a single sofa in the sofa group.

"Thank you." Bella sat down graciously, and naturally picked up the meal bag on the small table next to her and began to eat in small bites.

She didn't care about being poisoned, what she cared more about was the girl with silver-gray hair sitting diagonally across from her.

Sylvia Slytherin... Bella followed the goblin butler to the bathroom through many closed rooms, and the windows in the corridor looked out on to the endless forest, which didn't look like Which manor she has seen——her experience when she was Miss Black, plus the experience of spreading terror everywhere with Voldemort, she has probably seen all the people in the British wizarding world who are still alive and the family manor is still there. The sight of the manor.

Moreover, Dumbledore's attitude towards this girl surprised her. Dumbledore has been there since she woke up. As far as she knows, there are Professor McGonagall and Snape, but they all It was very silent, and even Dumbledore was the last to say a word, and it seemed that this Miss Slytherin was talking at other times.

"I know Miss Black is very curious about my identity." Sylvia said suddenly, put down the teacup in her hand, and looked at Bella's icy blue eyes without any special emotion, and she didn't flinch like Tonks , and there is no distrust and dissatisfaction like Lupin's, like a bottomless sea.

"But I think after solving the trust issue, we will have a lot of time to get to know each other." As soon as Sylvia finished speaking, Alger led Snape into the room.

Because he didn't trust Snape, Moody limped to Snape's side on his wooden leg, grabbed the small transparent bottle from his hand, and took out a set from somewhere on his body. After some fiddling with the simple potion detection tool, he snorted and returned the bottle to Snape. He walked back to the corner and stood there. The magic eyes were still fixed on Bella and Snape, as if ready to give them a bottle at any time. Come cast a dozen jinxes.

Without continuing to think about Miss Slytherin, Bella opened her mouth calmly and naturally, allowing her old acquaintance Snape to drip three drops of potion into her mouth.

Soon the calm and reserved expression on Bella's face faded, her head drooped, and she looked as if her soul had been sucked out of her.

"Can you hear me?" Dumbledore asked calmly, sitting up straight.

Bella's eyelids trembled a few times, as stiff as an old toy, she barely raised her head, only numbness remained in her black eyes, "I can hear you."

"I want you to tell us," Dumbledore asked slowly and clearly, "are you a Death Eater?"

"I was," Bella replied in a deadpan tone.

"Since when did you stop thinking of yourself as a Death Eater?"

"Since Voldemort killed my brother Regulus."

"Why do you think Voldemort killed Regulus? Tell me about the specific process."

This time Bella didn't answer right away, she took a deep breath trembling, with heavy sadness in her dull eyes, "Voldemort bestowed Horcruxes on his most loyal servants, first Malfoy, then me. Ray Although Gulus joined the Death Eaters for a short time, Voldemort seemed to like him very much, and finally gave him a Horcrux. At first we didn't know what it was, Ray admired Voldemort very much at that time, he took the soul Wear it close to your body..."

Moody's disdainful sneer came from the corner of the room, Lupine also had disgust on his face, the young Tonks and Hermione flinched at the name of "that person" in Bella's words, Harry's expression Almost as sluggish as Bella, who was affected by Veritaserum, today's events have completely exceeded the scope of what he can understand in one breath.

Bella was completely unresponsive when she was interrupted, and continued in an inorganic voice, "...but soon he became grumpy until I knocked him down and took the hanger off. We started looking for information about such a dark magic item, and finally we found bits and pieces and rumors that determined that what Voldemort gave us was a thing called a Horcrux. The book didn't say how to make it, but we knew it It is a very powerful dark magic item, especially it also stores part of Voldemort's soul - both Ray and I have learned the ancient magic handed down from the Black family, tearing the soul is absolutely unacceptable."

"We don't know if Voldemort will respond to the destruction of the Horcrux. At that time, I was still immersed in the new life that Voldemort brought to the family. I just wanted to keep the golden cup Horcrux that was handed over to me, but Ray was different. He avoided me to study some stuff, which I didn't pay attention to. Then Ray got a private summons from Voldemort..."

"It's rare. Voldemort likes to get people together and compete with each other to complete the tasks he assigns. Unless there is some covert operation, he will call individual Death Eaters alone. I find it strange that Ray joins the Death Eater." It didn't take long for him to get a Voldemort's Horcrux, which had already made him jealous of other Death Eaters, and now he was given a secret mission, which was very strange, especially since Ray had just graduated at that time and was not capable enough to carry out any Secret mission. I mentioned it to Matron Blake, but she thought it was something to be proud of to be given an important mission, so no one thought about it, but neither of us thought that in just one week, we saw On the family tapestry, Lei has been filled with the year of his death, and his head portrait has become black and white."

"It was Voldemort who killed Ray!" Bella's unfocused eyes showed anger, as if she was angry at the wallpaper pattern in the room.

"Do you know what mission Regulus was sent to perform in the end?" Dumbledore's tone remained steady.

"I don't know, I only know that Voldemort wants Ray to go to him with the pendant Horcrux."

Seeing that it was impossible to know the whereabouts of the other Horcrux, Dumbledore continued to ask about Bella, "Tell me about the thing about hypnotizing yourself."

"Ray is not only Mistress's favorite son, but also the hope of the Black family. Knowing that Lei passed away, Mistress Black completely collapsed...the blood of the Black family is broken." Bella's eyelids trembled and she swallowed. The eye circles were slightly red, as if recalling the most painful time in her life, "During that time, my father and I didn't dare to appear in front of Voldemort casually. We couldn't resist, so we could only carefully hide the pain, but going on like that is not the answer Neither my father nor I have done much research on Occlumency, and it is no problem to fool ordinary Death Eaters, but Voldemort is the most powerful master of Legilimency."

"I recalled the information about ancient magic passed down from generation to generation in the Black family that my mistress gave me. It was mentioned that there is a deep hypnotic magic in soul magic, which can completely fix memory, emotion, and even personality. Lock it up—just a few years ago, Mr. Abraxas Malfoy gave a large stack of soul magic materials to the mistress for storage. I began to study those soul magic materials day and night, and finally performed it for my father and me. Deep hypnosis."

"Are you continuing to serve Voldemort because of Sirius Black?" asked Dumbledore.

"Yes, even though he was expelled from the family, he still has the blood of the Black family on his body, and his children will inherit the Black family name. At that time, Voldemort was too powerful, and we couldn't fight him. We can only think about it. Continue to serve him to keep Sirius. After Sirius joined the Order of the Phoenix, all the Blacks under Voldemort were tortured and punished, and Ray, who was still studying at Hogwarts, was also asked to join the Death Eaters at that time. After that, when Voldemort's mood calmed down, Matron Black and Voldemort begged not to kill Sirius, and he agreed. After Ray died, Sirius was the last blood of the Black family, and we hypnotized ourselves into thinking that we were Voldemort's last Loyal subordinates, expect Voldemort to always remember his promise, although it is very unsafe, but in fact we have no other way, if not hypnotized, as long as a little negligence, the Black family will be wiped out directly."

Dumbledore let out a long sigh of relief and sat back without speaking, as if thinking about something.

Sylvia waved her wand and unlocked the magic on Sirius. Sirius, who was yelling at Bella angrily before, is now slumped on the sofa, and he looks ten years old all of a sudden. , staring blankly at the floor, not knowing what he was thinking.
