Chapter 4125 4127 [Regulus Black]
Time soon came to September.
On September 1st, the school officially opened. Xiang Nan and Lily first used the Floo powder to go to the Leaky Cauldron, and then took a train to King's Cross Station.
Before leaving home, they also asked their parents to sign a consent form to go to Hogsmeade Village.
At eleven o'clock, the train departed on time and headed north.
Xiang Nan sat in the same carriage with Lily, Gregory, Benjamin and others.
They shared cakes and candies, played crackling cards, and shared their experiences during the summer vacation.
Gregory Foley talked about Voldemort and the Death Eaters. They had sent someone to contact Gregory's parents, hoping that they could join the Death Eaters, but his parents refused.
Because although the Foley family is a pure-blood family, it has long been lonely, and now only their branch is left. Even if they followed Voldemort to make trouble, they would not get any credit if they succeeded in the end, so they declined the invitation of the Death Eaters.
Everyone was amazed after hearing this.
"Didn't the Ministry of Magic say it would investigate the Death Eaters and fight Voldemort? Why are they still active?" Lily asked in confusion.
"They say one thing and do another. Isn't that what all politicians do?" Benjamin pouted.
"Damn it." Lily couldn't help complaining after hearing this.
These politicians are just sitting there doing nothing, letting Voldemort and his gang do evil things, getting away with it, and continuing to harm Muggle-born wizards. It's really despicable.
...
Just then, someone happened to pass by.
Hearing them talking about Voldemort, he immediately asked angrily, "You are so brave. How dare you slander the Dark Lord behind his back?"
Everyone looked at him in confusion and saw that he was a handsome boy, probably one or two years younger than them, with flowing black hair, a pair of gray eyes, a tall figure, and exquisite clothes... You can tell at a glance that he is not an ordinary person.
"Who are you? How dare you teach a senior a lesson?" Gregory said unhappily. He saw that the other party was a freshman who had not yet enrolled.
Because the old students' ties had their own logos of each college, Gryffindor was red and yellow, Hufflepuff was yellow and black, Ravenclaw was blue and bronze, and Slytherin was silver and green, so they could be distinguished at a glance.
Although this freshman was wearing a magic robe, his tie was a single color. It was obviously a first-year freshman who had not yet been assigned to a college. He dared to speak to them, the seniors, like this. It was really abominable.
"Senior?! I'm just younger. You may not be as strong as me." The child said arrogantly.
"Well, this is a free country, and everyone has the right to speak." Xiang Nan said, "Don't say that Voldemort is now a dangerous person wanted by the Ministry of Magic. Even if he becomes the Minister of Magic, he must allow people to speak. Otherwise, what is the difference between him and a tyrant?"
"You dare to say that about him, I will kill you~" The child immediately took out his wand, pointed it at Xiang Nan, and roared loudly.
Xiang Nan smiled slightly when he saw this.
Others were not surprised but happy when they saw this.
"Boy, before you start, you'd better find out who your opponent is." Xiang Nan smiled, "Otherwise, your courage may turn into recklessness."
"That's right, you dare to fight him? Not to mention you, five seventh-year students are not his opponents."
"Lucius Malfoy brought four people to fight him, and he killed them all. How dare you point your wand at him?"
"Put down your wand, you are not his opponent." Lily advised.
"How dare you insult my future brother-in-law?" The child was furious when he heard them say this.
"Brother-in-law?! Are you Regulus Black?" Xiang Nan was slightly startled, then smiled and said, "Sirius Black's younger brother?"
"He is Sirius's younger brother?" Lily, Benjamin, and Gregory were all slightly surprised. No wonder he was as crazy as his brother and took out his wand when he disagreed.
Sirius Black liked to make trouble everywhere, so he was always caught and put in detention by Argus Filch. It seems that his younger brother is not a good person.
"Don't mention the name of that traitor in front of me." Regulus Black yelled again.
Sirius Black entered Gryffindor College instead of Slytherin like other family members, which was regarded as a shame for the family.
Moreover, he refused to support Voldemort's proposition and refused to be loyal to the Dark Lord, which caused dissatisfaction among family members. Therefore, he has been regarded as a traitor by the family.
"Enough, don't go crazy in front of us." Xiang Nan waved his hand, and Regulus's wand instantly slipped out of his hand and landed steadily in his hand.
"Ask your brother to help you get your wand back. Otherwise, you will be expelled as soon as you enter school." Xiang Nan looked at Regulus and said.
Regulus was also surprised to see Xiang Nan casting spells without a wand and silently. Moreover, the wand was confiscated, which made him feel like a castrated eunuch, losing the capital to maintain his self-esteem.
"You...you...you..." He hesitated for a long time, and finally turned and left.
"You are really ignorant. How dare you fight with you? He is just too young."
"It's too easy for him to just confiscate his wand. At least he should be cursed."
Benjamin and Gregory said.
Xiang Nan waved his hand and smiled, "It's just a child. They all make mistakes sometimes. They should be given a chance to correct them."
Regulus Black took some wrong paths at first, but he was not a bad kid. He was just blinded by Voldemort's heresy.
But he eventually recognized Voldemort's true face, broke with him, and stole Slytherin's locket, one of his Horcruxes.
So Xiang Nan was willing to show mercy to such a kid.
Lily nodded in agreement.
…
After Regulus left, Xiang Nan waited until it was dark and the Hogwarts Express was about to arrive before he saw Sirius Black.
According to his guess, Regulus was reluctant to ask for help from his brother Sirius, who was regarded as a traitor and shame of the family. But the wand was too precious to him, and he couldn't lose it.
So he kept struggling until the last moment, when he had to ask his brother for help and asked him to help Xiang Nan get his wand back.
Xiang Nan didn't say anything. When he saw Sirius, he directly threw his brother's wand to him.
"Thanks, buddy." Sirius took the wand and nodded.
He knew Xiang Nan's ability. If he really wanted to deal with his brother, his brother would be in trouble.
When Xiang Nan first entered school, he knew more spells than most seventh-year students. He knew curses, poison curses, and curses. He was quite powerful.
"It doesn't matter." Xiang Nan waved his hand and smiled, "But you should still persuade him to have less contact with people like Voldemort. He is definitely not the savior of the pure-blood family. He will only take them to the grave."
"They don't listen to me." Sirius said disgustedly.
He had persuaded his family countless times, but not only did he fail to persuade them, but he made himself the most unpopular person in the family.
