The Wind and the Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

Chapter 334 334. The disappeared locket

After boarding the train, Scott and his three roommates sat together in the same compartment.

"How was your vacation, everyone?"

Eddie asked symbolically, and before Scott and the others could answer, he began to talk about his vacation experience.

I don't know why, he could describe the boring experience of staying at home for two weeks so excitingly.

Scott smiled and didn't tell his adventures.

I'm afraid of scaring you, he thought.

"Hello."

The door of the compartment was suddenly pushed open, and Luna stood at the door.

"What's wrong, Luna?" Scott turned around and asked.

"Oh, I want to talk to you." Luna walked into the compartment without hesitation and sat next to Scott's seat, "Sawanna wrote me a letter."

Scott pushed Milton, who was sitting by the window, and the two squeezed in to make some space for Luna.

"Thank you." Luna glanced at the other three boys, then stared at Scott. "Savana said she would not return to Hogwarts, but she didn't tell me why. Do you know why?" Before Scott could answer, she asked herself, "Oh, you know." Her silver-gray eyes were filled with mist, and her voice was vague. "Can you tell me? I'm a little worried about her." Scott felt that Luna was particularly difficult to deal with at this time. He knew that it was meaningless to lie to her at this time, even if he had the brain occlusion technique. At this time, Eddie had already stopped his chattering. He was looking at Scott and Luna with Milton and Roger. The three of them had expressions of watching the fun on their faces. "Yes, I know." Scott said softly. Luna still turned her head and stared at him, obviously waiting for his answer. "She will complete a trial and undergo a transformation." Scott looked into her eyes and said, "Then, she will fulfill her duties." "So that's it." Luna nodded. The smoky color in her eyes faded, and her silver-gray eyes became clear again. Scott smiled slightly, "That's it."

At this time, he observed the surprised expressions on his roommates' faces from the corner of his eyes, so his smile widened a little.

"What's going on?" Eddie couldn't help asking.

Scott smiled and didn't answer.

Eddie asked curiously again, "Is Savannah going to drop out of school? Why?"

"Are you also Savannah's friend, Eddie?" Luna turned and asked him.

When he heard her ask this, Eddie's expression on his face suddenly became a little tangled, "Yes..."

He was about to lie, but Luna had already withdrawn her sight.

"You're not." She said lightly.

Her performance immediately blocked Eddie's lie.

"She is my VIP customer." Eddie muttered.

"I hope Savannah will be fine." Luna said to Scott again, ignoring Eddie.

Scott nodded.

Then Luna stopped talking, but she didn't leave either.

She took out a copy of The Quibbler from her woolen bag, held it up with both hands and read it comfortably, laughing happily as she read.

Except for Scott, the other three looked at her in surprise.

Although it was not the first time they saw Luna "go crazy", they were still a little uncomfortable.

Scott accepted it well and turned to talk to Milton about his situation.

Because Milton went back to the Graves family during the Christmas holiday.

Although Mr. Graves told him not to go back, Milton's grandfather asked him to go back the day after Christmas, so Milton went back for a day helplessly.

Scott wanted to ask him if he was troubled.

"Actually, it's nothing. My dad said he would help me solve the troubles at home, and he did it."

When talking about this, Milton's face did not show a sad expression.

"Although I don't know what my dad said to them, my grandfather and relatives no longer have me in their eyes."

At this point, he smiled indifferently.

"Honestly, it feels good to be ignored by them."

Scott patted his shoulder, "Since they have already ignored you, why did your grandfather call you back?"

"Maybe for face?" Milton said, "Because my father got a good job, he became the secretary-in-chief of the Minister's Office of the Ministry of Magic, and there will be guests at home to celebrate this."

Scott's eyebrows moved slightly when he heard the news.

Because he knew that Mr. Graves' current wife, Mrs. Zabini, was from Medea, so it was inevitable that he suspected that Mr. Graves' transfer was related to Medea's layout in the Ministry of Magic.

Just then, the train started.

"Next, I have to fulfill my duties as a prefect."

Scott stood up, he had to patrol the carriage.

No one answered him.

Eddie was discussing the Quidditch game with Roger, Luna was concentrating on reading a magazine, and only Milton smiled at him.

Scott walked out of the compartment and began to patrol along the carriage.

No accidents happened along the way. Scott walked slowly and greeted acquaintances from time to time.

Until the last carriage.

"That house elf is really crazy! He's making a lot of noise in the house, and he's preventing us from having a happy Christmas!"

In the distance, Scott heard Harry's voice.

"Oh, you're so unlucky, man."

He heard Ron say again.

"This is your first Christmas with Professor Black."

"Who says it isn't? That guy was already crazy, but now it's getting even crazier! It went crazy and destroyed everything, and finally messed up everything!"

Harry's voice was furious.

"Do you know, it actually said that I stole Regulus's relics! But I know that monster is only targeting me! Because I am not the pure-blood wizard it says it is!"

Scott frowned when he heard this.

If he remembers correctly...according to the description in the "original work"...

The thing that was kept by the house elves of the Black family, the so-called relic of Regulus, was one of Voldemort's seven Horcruxes, Slytherin's Locket.

Hearing Harry's words, Scott suddenly realized that Slytherin's locket was missing.

"Oh, don't say that, Harry."

At this time, Hermione's voice sounded.

"You should be nicer to house elves."

"What stupid things are you talking about? How can I be nice to it? It is accusing me of stealing things! Sirius even said that there is nothing missing at home!" Harry's voice became more and more angry.

Originally, Scott thought that the locket hidden by the Black house elf was safe.

Voldemort hid the locket in a seaside cave full of traps. Regulus Black replaced the real locket with a fake one without anyone knowing.

Before he died, he gave the real locket to his house elf for safekeeping, and asked the house elf to destroy it completely.

Although the house elf failed to destroy the locket, it kept the locket hidden in its lair.

Who took the real locket?

Is it Medea?

Or Voldemort?

It seems that someone has gone to the seaside cave where the pendant was originally hidden, found the fake pendant, and followed the clues to go to Black's house and steal the real one.

Thinking this way, Scott walked into this car.

"Hello." He raised his voice.

The conversation between Harry and the three of them suddenly stopped.

"Are you three conspiring loudly again?" Scott walked over and pushed open the compartment door.

He looked around and said with a smile: "Although there are only the three of you in this carriage and no one is in the other compartments, I heard your voices outside the carriage."

"We're not plotting anything, Scott." Harry's expression didn't look good, "I was complaining about the crazy house elf in the Black family."

Scott nodded, "I heard it, it said you stole something."

Harry's expression became even more grim.

"Is it possible that something was really lost?" Scott said in a casual tone, "I mean, another thief went in and stole something."

Harry immediately denied this guess, "That's impossible. Others shouldn't be able to enter that house. It's protected by magic. That monster is targeting me!"

"Magic? Is it the Loyalty Charm?" Scott asked.

"I don't know." Harry shook his head blankly.

"If it wasn't for the Fidelity Charm, someone else might have invaded the house," Scott said.

"Okay, I'll ask Sirius." Harry said hesitantly.

Ron shrugged, "Who would go out there and steal something from a house elf? Obviously, like Harry said, that house elf is a lunatic."

"You can't talk like that!" Hermione said to the two boys with a straight face, "If it weren't for this incident, I wouldn't have known that the house elves have been suffering oppression and exploitation from wizards!"

Ron looked at her incomprehensibly, "Seriously, what nonsense are you talking about? That house elf slandered Harry as a thief! Obviously, it has indeed gone crazy!"

"Of course, it may be a little crazy," Hermione said, "but that's also the result of being oppressed and exploited!"

"Seriously, Hermione." Harry's eyes widened, "I don't like those monsters at all! Dobby almost caused Ron and I to be expelled from school, and he broke my arm with a Bludger! Now Kreacher is slandering me! Are you still sympathizing with them?"

Because of the experiences he talked about, it was obvious that he had a very bad impression of house elves.

"No matter what, wizards should not enslave another intelligent creature to serve them for free!" Hermione said stiffly, "No salary, no holidays. This is obviously wrong..."

At this time, Scott had quietly withdrawn from the battlefield, turned around and left the carriage.

All he cared about was Slytherin's locket. He wanted to know in whose hands this Voldemort's Horcrux fell.

According to what Harry just said, the Black family's house is still protected by magic.

But it is impossible to tell whether it is the Red Bold Loyalty Curse.

In the "original book", it was when Voldemort made a comeback and the Order of the Phoenix was reorganized that Sirius donated this old house as the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix. It was also at that time that Dumbledore used the Fidelity Charm to protect it.

The current situation is different from that in the "original book", and Harry does not know whether Sirius Black has cast the Fidelity Charm on that house.

If it was the Fidelius Charm, then it would be easy to find the person who stole the locket, but if it wasn't, then it would be difficult.
