Chapter 489 Regulus Arcturus Black

"Kreacher is working at any time, sir." The old house elf held a broom and swept it gently on the ground twice, but his eyes were always staring in the direction of Ivan. It had a flat mouth and didn't use much. A voice that Ivan could just hear murmured.

"The damn little brat must be trying to drive Kreacher away so he can steal something, but he won't succeed!"

The corners of Ivan's mouth twitched. He somewhat understood how Sirius felt. If he had such a house elf, he would definitely seal its mouth!

The change in Ivan's expression was seen by the old house elf. It looked at Ivan gloomily, with a look of disdain in its eyes, and murmured in a low voice.

"Sir, he must be thinking about how to get rid of Kreacher. Kreacher has already seen it. He is so evil."

But it doesn’t matter, Kreacher has lived long enough to accompany the mistress, but I don’t know what kind of damage this house will be ruined by the little brats in the future, it’s pitiful.”

"Shut up! Can you stop holding conspiracy theories in your mind! No one will want to kill you!" Ivan rolled his eyes and interrupted Kreacher's words.

"And I need to remind you that if you don't want others to hear something, don't say it so loud! Just keep it in your heart, do you understand?"

Ivan very much suspected that Kreacher's whispers to crowd out people were deliberately told to him, otherwise how could he just hear them every time.

Kreacher curled his lips and drooped his long pointed ears. He didn't speak anymore, but he didn't leave either.

Ivan shook his head, there was really nothing he could do about it.

In fact, if you want to know the specific location of Slytherin's Locket, asking Kreacher directly is the fastest way.

But this house elf obviously doesn't trust him very much. He will never reveal the whereabouts of the locket. He might even think that he is plotting this thing and secretly hide the locket. That would be difficult. .

Just when Ivan had a headache from this, a crazy, creepy scream came from outside.

"Get out of here, you filthy bug, damn scumbag, get out of this house! How dare you tarnish the noble Black Station!"

The high-pitched female voice immediately broke the tranquility of the mansion. Kreacher, who was guarding the door, changed his expression drastically. He snapped his fingers and disappeared.

Ivan frowned, and immediately walked out of the room, walking in the direction of the sound, and saw Lupin's figure in the corridor.

Lupine was standing awkwardly in front of the half-opened velvet curtain, a little at a loss.

Behind the curtain was a life-size portrait, in which an old lady wearing a black hat was screaming desperately, and the curses were continuous.

After seeing Ivan, the old lady's face suddenly showed a ferocious expression. "Oh! God, another one, who allowed you to come in! This is the ancestral home of the Black family, get out! Get out of here!"

The piercing screams resounded through the sky like a powerful curse, and Ivan could hear it even if he covered his ears.

The dirty house elf Kreacher was standing at the corner looking at them, muttering something in a low voice.

However, the scream did not last long, because Sirius, who heard the movement, had already rushed over.

"Shut up, you old witch, it's you who should get out of here! If you make any more noise, I'll throw you into the furnace and burn you!" Sirius cursed, taking a few steps forward to close the curtains.

But this thing seemed to be enchanted. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move at all. The old lady's curses in the portrait became louder and louder.

"You despicable prodigal son, a disgrace to the family, the evil son I gave birth to! You actually have the nerve to come back."

"Lupin, Harry, Ivan, come here and help me!" Sirius couldn't pull it up by himself, so he had no choice but to ask Ivan and others for help. Finally, everyone worked together to pull up the curtain.

When the piercing screams disappeared, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sorry, Sirius, I didn't know this was here, I just wanted to clean the curtains," Lupine said apologetically.

"No, it's none of your business! I was negligent and forgot to remind you of this." Sirius shook his head.

"Sirius, who was the person in the portrait just now?" Harry asked curiously.

"That's my mother! A complete bigot and a staunch pure-bloodist. She discriminates against all non-pure-blood wizards and doesn't allow them to step into the house! Of course, except for my uncle and that little brother who has no opinion. Besides, everyone else in the Black family has similar problems!"

Sirius said angrily, and then looked at the curtain, "Anyway, I will find time to get rid of the portrait. The final destination of this thing should be the stove!"

Kreacher, who was hiding aside, muttered softly at this moment. "He is a heartless prodigal. The poor mistress is already dead. He also plans to destroy the mistress's portrait, but they will not succeed. No one can move the painting."

"If you say one more thing, I will tear your mouth apart!" Sirius turned his head and looked at the old house elf, threatening angrily.

However, Kreacher didn't care. As a house elf, being punished was completely routine, and tearing his mouth to pieces didn't seem to be a big deal, so he didn't stop talking and continued to murmur.

"The mistress is very strict, Miss Bellatrix is ​​very smart, young Master Regulus is very brave, and the others are all good too! They are not the same as one person at all."

Sirius heard Kreacher's words and laughed disdainfully.

"You said my mother was strict, I admit it, and I also admitted that my cousin was cunning, but you actually said Regulus was brave?"

At this point, Sirius seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and continued sarcastically.

"Ah yes! You are right, he is very brave, brave enough to join the mysterious man and become a Death Eater. I didn't expect him to have such courage!

I guess the old witch must have been extremely happy because her long-standing teachings finally pushed her little son into the pit of fire! "

Sirius' voice was very sharp, but he didn't notice that Kreacher was staring at him angrily.

Harry on the side was extremely surprised when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked.

"Who is Regulus? You said he defected to Voldemort?"

Sirius smiled bitterly, and he sighed as he said. "Regulus is my brother, a cowardly fool!"
