Although they have known for a long time that they are wizards, there must be some creatures in the wizard world that ordinary people cannot see, but when Anthea really saw such creatures, she was still frightened.Therefore, when Sirius, a slightly familiar human being, appeared in front of her, Anthea was like a drowning person grabbing driftwood, holding on to Sirius' clothes tightly, and resolutely refusing to let go—she didn't even Realized that this man appeared directly in his room in the middle of the night.

Sirius looked down at the girl lying in his arms, but didn't push her away.His hand rested lightly on her shoulder, and he could feel her trembling obviously.Anthea let out a whimper from her throat, which sounded like she wanted to cry, and Sirius froze for a moment, allowing the girl to hug him, and buried her face in his clothes that still smelled of incense.

Sirius had an unhappy day in his life.At the meeting of the Order of the Phoenix today, they got the news that the McKinnon family was killed—the McKinnon couple and their daughter Marlene McKinnon, who had just graduated from Hogwarts, were killed together, and they were all depressed Incredible.As a result, just after the meeting, he received a call from Jarvis, saying that Anthea had been attacked again at home.

Sirius thought it was Bellatrix at first.The scene of Dorcas dying in front of him reappeared in his mind again, and he found himself a little scared, afraid that Anthea Stark would die like Dorcas-he immediately came to the door of Anthea's house .

He was relieved that the intruder was not Bellatrix this time.Although Anthea's expression looked a little weird, she was fine and nothing happened.

Fortunately she was fine.

But when Sirius saw the Death Eater captured by the high-tech products in Anthea's house that he couldn't understand His mood really got worse when he saw the Death Eater—that Death Eater was his younger brother, Regulus Black.

His well-behaved and cute little brother came here alone to "kill" Anthea?Even if Regulus' skills are not bad, even if he knows a lot of black magic, let him kill alone - Sirius knows his brother, Regulus is definitely not such a crazy and perverted person, let him The only one who did this kind of thing was Voldemort besides Bellatrix.

Bellatrix really thought Anthea had something to do with him, didn't she?Otherwise, why would she come by herself once, and then let Regulus come again?Maybe it was she who wanted Regulus to capture or kill Anthea in order to lure him out, and then "purge" the "traitor" of his family from the world, right?

When Sirius walked into the room where Regulus was being held, seeing Regulus' expression, he knew he had guessed right.But Regulus has always been unwilling to talk to him—it has to be said that he looks much more mature and proud than when he was in school, more like a member of the Black family.

"Are you here to kill that girl?" Sirius asked, staring into Regulus' eyes, but Regulus just looked at him indifferently and didn't answer his question.

"Did our dear Cousin Bella send you?" Sirius asked again.But Regulus directly closed his eyes this time, and still didn't want to answer him.

"If you don't talk, you might go to Azkaban tomorrow. You know what's there—oh, congratulations on becoming the first Black to enter Azkaban, I thought this honor would belong to Bella Where's Trix?" Sirius couldn't help being provocative.

"Are you going to send me to Azkaban?" To Sirius' surprise, Regulus actually opened his mouth because of his levelless provocation, "Just because I'm suspected of attacking that Muggle girl ? Don’t you Order of the Phoenix pay attention to evidence?”

"You don't have to emphasize the word 'suspected', Regulus." Sirius once again met the gray eyes that were almost identical to his own. "So, you don't want to enter Azkaban? Are you... afraid of death?"

"I'm not afraid of death!" Regulus became furious because of his words, "You..."

"What about me? What do you want to scold me?" Sirius curled up a sarcastic smile, "I'm not like you, little Rael who is held in the palm of his mother's hand, who can't even do something like die, weak It's like a piece of crap..."

"I'm not a waste!" Regulus' anger was completely provoked by him, "You are a coward, a coward who escapes responsibility! Sirius!"

"I ran away from my responsibilities?" Sirius smiled instead of anger, "I left that family, I left the darkness and corruption there—my responsibility is to fight against disgusting Death Eaters like you, insist on My own belief! Voldemort cannot rule the world, he..."

"I don't need your preaching, Sirius. You're not my brother anymore." Regulus returned him with the same ironic smile, and Sirius found it strikingly similar to himself, "You can leave now." Said After finishing, he ignored Sirius and closed his eyes.

Being "thrown out" of the room by Regulus, Sirius' mood didn't get any worse.He didn't want to pay attention to the girl who still seemed to want to talk to him, turned around and left the courtyard.

Because of these few things, Sirius felt that the day was terrible.He couldn't even lie down to rest--as soon as he closed his eyes, he could see the gloomy look-alike boy saying something to him angrily, or Anthea Star K fell the way Dorcas Meadows fell in front of him when a green light hit him in the chest...

He can't sleep.

After dinner at night, Sirius finally decided to sleep.He had a good rest this time - in the dream, Anthea was full of vigor, crossed her hips and said something loudly to him, the expression on her face was so vivid that he even forgot that it was a dream, and wanted to stretch out his fingers Poke her round cheeks.

When Sirius was awakened by the ringing of the phone, his hand was still raised in the air, and his index finger was stretched out, making a movement that really wanted to poke something.He hastily put down his hands, pretending that he wasn't the foolish dreamer, covered his mouth with his hands and yawned, picked up the phone with squinted eyes, and looked at the screen that was too bright for the night.

"The monster... so scary... Regulus Black's room..." Anthea's trembling voice woke Sirius up.But... a monster?Sirius didn't think it was possible for Regulus to turn into a monster—unless Regulus also "learned badly" and learned Animagus like him, and was seen by this girl when he transformed.

Sirius longed to roll his eyes at his peculiarly dry joke.He got up and got dressed (just waving his wand), thought for a while, and directly apparated into Anthea's room.

To Sirius' surprise, the girl who seemed to hate him at first hugged him tightly as soon as he appeared, as if a dying person grasped at a straw.Despite the initial embarrassment, after the young man stiffened, he gently patted the shoulder of the girl in his arms so that she would not be too nervous.

Anthea hugged Sirius, and after her emotions stabilized, she raised her head cautiously and looked at the man who was comforting her gently.For the first time, Sirius didn't say anything excessive to her, and the expression on his face was not as careless and sarcastic as before. Instead, he looked at her with gentleness and concern, which made Anthea couldn't help but blush.

"Sorry to disturb your rest." Anthea's voice was so soft that Sirius could hardly hear him.

Sirius shook his head, seeing that Anthea seemed to have recovered a little, he said, "Where did you see the 'monster'?"

Anthea bit her lips when she heard his question, and even held Sirius' hand directly with one hand.Before Sirius could express his surprise at the girl's boldness, his eyes widened at the image on the laptop screen that Anthea turned around with one hand.

What was shown there was a view from another room.Even if Sirius didn't observe the decoration of that room carefully because of the quarrel with Regulus in the afternoon, he could still recognize the furnishings there accurately.

And the one who was talking to Regulus was probably the "monster" creature Anthea called, Kreacher, the house elf of the Black family.

"That's not a monster. It's fine." Sirius said in a calm tone enough to appease Anthea, and still lowered his voice, "That's me...the house elf of the Black family, named Kreacher—his favorite His Master Regulus, and in the past, he hated me the most."

Anthea was about to say something, but was pushed back on the bed by Sirius: "You need to get a good night's sleep instead of staring at this... computer? Look at that crazy house elf."

Anthea lay back, but her big eyes kept staring at Sirius. Sirius, who was going to sit beside her and coax her to sleep, almost wanted to run away when she saw him—he felt as if something The place was wrong, but he couldn't tell.

"I'm with you, don't be afraid." Sirius forced himself to look away, only to realize that Anthea was still holding his hand.He shook each other back, and Anthea seemed to have just reacted, and quickly retracted her hand into the thin blanket as if she had been burned.

Sirius watched Anthea close her eyes, and he breathed a sigh of relief.Anthea just stared at him, and he felt his heart beat twice as fast.He lay down on the recliner near the window, cast a warming spell on himself, and fell asleep——

What did he seem to forget?

The next day, Anthea was woken up by Jarvis' siren.At the same time she woke up, Sirius quickly sat up from the couch.

"Miss, Regulus Black has escaped."
