09 Thief

Harry Potter, Ron, Hermione and Ashinsha came to the ancestral house at 12 Grimmau Square, London, England.

This place was originally Sirius Black's home, to be precise, this is the ancestral home of the Black family.

The Black family has a tapestry hanging in a room in this ancestral home, with the Black family tree drawn on it.

This family tree begins in the Middle Ages and shows the family situation to date.

By the end of the 20th century, because Sirius and Regulus Black died one after another and did not leave any descendants, the patriarchs of the Black family had all disappeared.

But what is even more ironic is that the women of the Black family are still alive, among which Narcissa Black married into the Malfoy family, and Andomeda married Ted Tonks, a wizard from Muggle. This is absolutely not allowed in the Black family, which had a deep-rooted pure blood concept, so she was directly removed from the genealogy.

It is worth mentioning that the relationship between the Porter family and the Black family is not yet completely clear.

But Sirius, who has passed away, is just Harry's godfather, and his blood relationship has no direct connection, but the relationship between the two is indeed a true family affection.

Harry had come to this ancestral home, which was actually this period last year. According to Sherlock's explanation, R.A.B is Sirius's younger brother Regulus. After Harry came back this time, he looked at the family tree of the Black family again, but he naturally remembered the conversation with Sirius. The other party did mention that he had such a brother.

At that time, just at this time last year, in this room, Sirius stretched out a finger and pointed to the name at the bottom of the genealogy: Regulus Black.

There is a date of death after the date of birth, and the time marked on it was about fifteen years ago.

"He's younger than me," Sirius said at the time. "I'm constantly reminded that his son is much better than me."

"But he's dead," said Harry.

"Yes." Sirius said, "a stupid idiot, he joined the Death Eater."

"You're kidding!"

"Listen to me, Harry, after seeing the situation of this house, don't you understand what kind of wizard my family are?" Sirius said impatiently.

"Are your...your parents also Death Eaters?"

"No, no, but believe me, they think Voldemort's claim is correct, they all agree with maintaining the purity of the wizard's blood, getting rid of the Muggle-born people and giving the pure blood people the power, they are not unique, and before Voldemort reveals his true face, many people think that his claim on something is correct, but when they find out that he uses any means to gain power, they are all timid and retreat, but I think my parents must think that Regulus had joined the group from the beginning and was considered a brave little hero."

"Has he been killed by Auror?" Harry asked indefinitely.

"Oh, no." Sirius said, "No, he was killed by Voldemort, or, more likely, under Voldemort's instructions, I suspect that Regulus is not that important yet, and Voldemort needs to take him away. Judging from what I know after his death, he has fallen deeply, and then he is afraid of what others want him to do, and wants to quit. Alas, you can't hand Voldemort a resignation report to be done, either to work for life or to die."

As Harry recalled the conversation with Sirius, he hoped to find some prominent description of Sirius's younger brother from his memory, such as whether there is any place that Regulus likes to go, or some hidden places where he likes to hide things, maybe the Horcrux will be there.

But unfortunately, Sirius seemed reluctant to talk about Regules too much at that time. It seemed that Sirius didn't know much about his younger brother, just like Sirius never knew that Regules had done great things until his death.

"Harry! Look at who we have found!" Ron and Hermione ran up in a hurry. Even if Ahsinsha went up the stairs, she was very careful. After all, this ancestral home is also very historically important. After the Black family disappeared, it would become an antique building.

As the Mephisto tribe who is the oldest and largest pure blood family in the magic world, whenever a pure blood family dies in the magic world, Ah Xinsha is very sad.

"You must make a sound here!" Harry accused Ron because he didn't like others making noise in the Black's ancestral home, which seemed disrespectful to the dead.

But when Harry saw Ron holding the house elf Clicher in his hand, Harry was overjoyed. Perhaps Harry didn't know where Regulus would put the Horcrux, but Clicher, who served the Black family for the rest of his life, would definitely know some clues.

At the beginning, Harry persuaded him with kind words, and later he directly threatened Kliche to tell the truth. The house-elf didn't even mention a word. But when Harry said the name Regulus, Kliche burst into tears.

"Listen to Clicher, if you want to violate the requirements of the Mephisto tribe, don't forget that you are just a house elf who has lost his tribe!" Ashinsha walked up the stairs and said this to Clicher.

And Clice did not dare to act too presumptuously in front of Ashinha. "Clice did not dare, the noble Miss Mephisto, the little master of Regules once warned me not to say anything to the outside world..."

Clicher was helpless and cried a few times in pain and then accused himself of not completing the last task assigned by Regulus.

Harry and others also learned about the past from Clicche.

During the time when Regulus became a Death Eater.

Voldemort once asked him for an experiment with a house elf. He recommended Clicher, but told Clicher to complete what Voldemort asked him to do and then go home.

Regulus found clues from Kleece, who was frightened when he returned home, and became suspicious of Voldemort.

In order to protect the Black family, he took Kliche to Voldemort's Horcrux to save the Horcrux for a while, drank poison, and exchanged the Horcrux... Slytherin's locket.

He handed the Horcrux to Cliche, ordering Cliche to destroy the Horcrux and not tell any family members about this. He then died by the Yin corpse dragged into the water for drinking water. His mother was "so sad that she was crazy" about this.

He left only one suicide note from the replica of the Slytherin locket, signed by R.A.B.

In fact, even Voldemort was negligent. He set up a very powerful ban in the cave where Slytherin's locket was hiding, which made it difficult for some wizards to escape directly from the cave. At least the phantom movement would never work.

However, Voldemort neglected the unique magic of the house elves. The magic of their race is special and has created loopholes in Voldemort's ban, which has led to Clicher being able to escape from the cave.

That's what happened later.

Regulus hopes that Cliche can destroy Voldemort's Horcrux.

Regules did not regard the lives of domestic elves and muggles as grass like other Death Eaters and Dark Lords. When he realized that the Dark Lord was trying to kill Clicher, he changed his mind and realized Voldemort's cruelty.

He arrived at the Black Lake Cave to destroy the Horcrux, and would rather drink poison himself than the elf.

He was the first to discover Horcrux.

Slytherin's locket was the first Horcrux to be discovered.

But how could the Dark King's Horcrux be destroyed by a house elf? No matter what Kliche used to use all the methods he thought of were unsuccessful.

This made Clice feel discouraged when he was unable to complete Regulus' will and could only hide the locket in the house.

When Harry heard Clicher say that the Horcrux was hidden in this house, Harry's heart thumped again, and finally he was able to find a Voldemort's Horcrux in such a short time. This was undoubtedly an exciting thing.

"Give it to me!" Harry gave the order directly that after Sirius' death, he could inherit Clice directly from his godfather.

"But it's not here now."

"What's the meaning?"

"Montongus Flech stole it, but in fact the thief stole many things in the house!" Kleicher counted some of the things Montongus stole, even including a first-class Merlin badge.

"Isn't the Montongus he mentioned..." Ron couldn't help but interject. In fact, they had contact with Montongus two days ago, and Harry should also thank the other party for being willing to come over to help him transfer from the Ligustri Road at that dangerous moment.

But after listening to Clicche's words, Harry felt annoyed and angry at Montongus. How humble a person is to steal some things from other people's family's ancestral homes.

"So that box is also in Montongus' hands, are you sure?" Harry asked Cliche last.

Kliche nodded affirmatively.

"I have to contact Moody. Moody will definitely know where Montongus is. They are all connected. When Dumbledore was still alive, Montongus provided information to the Order of the Phoenix, all about the Death Eaters and Voldemort." Harry said.

Ron said, "It sounds like this Montongus is also very powerful. It is not ordinary to be able to find information about the Death Eaters and Voldemort."

Ashinsha has no good impression of the name Montongus. "A villain who is profit-oriented can be regarded as a businessman who dares to do anything, as long as he gives enough benefits."

"Clicher, now I tell you to do something, find Moody, and then tell him to go find Montongus. We are still waiting for him in Black's ancestral home. If you have any doubts, you can come and have an interview." Harry told Clicher, and then the older domestic elf disappeared into the air in an instant.

At this time, the Order of the Phoenix had not yet suffered any loss of troops, although the soul had passed away.

Harry and others stayed in Black's ancestral house for another day, and waited until the early morning of the next day, when Cliche and Moody did not show up.

This made Harry have to secretly pray that Moody must not have any other accidents outside.

Hermione, on the other hand, found a way to get the newspaper from the Prophet Daily from outside.

"You actually ran outside to buy newspapers." Ron and Harry were disbelief.

Hermione dressed herself up as an old lady, and at the corner of the street there was an automatic sales office of the Prophet Daily.

But as Black's ancestral home, this place is likely to be targeted by the Death Eater.

Hermione is indeed worried about going out like this.

"Look at this news, it's definitely sensational."

Hermione was dissatisfied with Ron and Harry's accusations and threw the newspaper directly into their faces.

Hermione returned to her and Ashinsha's room, then climbed onto the bed and got into Ashinsha's bed, who had not yet woken up, and went back to sleep.

"Sherlock Mephisto is appointed as the professor of the Dark Magic Defense Class in Hogwarts! The Hogwarts Magic School has become the safest place in the magic world again."

Ron read the eye-catching title of the news.

After learning that Sherlock became the professor of the Dark Magic Defense Class at Hogwarts, the wizards in the magic world couldn't wait to tell the children who stayed at home all sent to Hogwarts.

After all, the magic world can no longer find a safer place than Hogwarts.

Even after reading the newspaper, Ron even planned to return to Hogwarts to go to class again. After all, he should have finished the seventh grade now, and it would be reasonable even if he returned to school now.

Harry patted Ron on the shoulder, "At least, Ginny will be safe in the school, and the Death Eaters will never dare to break in. Mr. Sherlock's attitude towards the Death Eaters is much tougher."

Ron said in a weird tone, "I'm not worried about others, I'm thinking about whether to go back to Hogwarts for class tomorrow."

Harry "..."

A loud noise at this time interrupted the communication between Harry and Ron.

When the two of them went down the stairs, they happened to see Moody and Lupin appearing directly in the hall in uniform of Montongus.

"I was wondering just now when you will come, but I didn't expect that Lupin, you are here too." Harry said ecstatically.

"When Kliche found me, I was staying at Tonks' parents' house with Lupin," Moody said.

And Lupin has other news to tell Harry, "Tonks and I have children, and will be born soon around Christmas."

Harry had no time to give blessings, Montongus was there and Clicher came out from behind and knocked the other person's knee heavily with a pan.

"What am I doing wrong? You all have to treat me like this. I even helped you Harry... You are simply ungrateful..."

Montongus shouted.

Harry's face turned red, and it was indeed Montongus who helped Harry move out of Ligustworth.
