Chapter 491 Slytherin’s Locket

Kreacher had a look of panic on his face, but he still insisted on saying nothing. He allowed Sirius to curse and murmur in a medium voice. "Poor old Kreacher, he shouldn't have believed what the kid said."

Ivan rolled his eyes. It was impossible to destroy the Horcrux, and there was no need to hide it from Sirius. Whether he told it or not, he would have to know sooner or later.

However, Ivan still stopped Sirius who wanted to teach Kreacher a lesson and offered help. "It's not Kreacher's fault. Maybe someone gave it a hush-hush order. Let's just go there and take a look."

Sirius also calmed down a bit at this time, and thought about this possibility. Generally speaking, it was impossible for a house elf to disobey his master's order, so he gave Kreacher a hard look and said.

"Okay! Let's go! Where to go!" Sirius made a prompt decision and led everyone downstairs. Kreacher followed them during the process and stopped beside one of the cabinets.

"Is it right here?" Ivan walked over and asked.

Kreacher nodded hesitantly.

Sirius pushed it away, opened the cabinet and started rummaging around, but his actions also alerted the little creature hiding in the cabinet.

A creature with many legs that looked like a pair of silver tweezers suddenly sprang out. The long silver needle on its tail pierced Sirius' arm, but the latter dodged it.

Sirius suddenly grabbed the black book lying next to him and beat the thing to death. However, more little creatures ran away from the cabinet in panic and got into the cracks in the floor.

"Damn it! Looks like I have to buy some spray and clean the whole house!" Sirius couldn't do anything about these annoying guys.

But now was obviously not the time to think about this, so Sirius quickly turned his attention to the cabinet.

There was a music box, a twist of clockwork, a lot of antique seals, a dusty box, and some random things.

Sirius picked up the nearest box, opened it and looked at it. Inside was a shining golden Order of Merlin, First Class.

Sirius remembered that it had been given to his grandfather as a reward for his "service" to the Ministry of Magic.

After just one glance, the box and the medal were thrown aside by Sirius. This was not what he was looking for.

"None of these." Sirius threw the seal engraved with the Black family's name, the clockwork, the music box, etc. on the ground, and finally picked up something that looked like a souvenir box.

It looks very simple and is worn by a silver-white chain. The front looks like a guide compass, with mysterious runes engraved around it, and a large S-shaped mark in the center, which is drawn to look like a snake and is inlaid with green gems. It looks expensive at first glance!

However, the Black family was full of such precious antiques, so Sirius didn't pay much attention at first. It wasn't until he subconsciously wanted to play with it that he found that he couldn't open the thing, and he felt something was wrong.

Ivan's eyes were also attracted by this thing. Having been in contact with the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, he knew very well that the snake-shaped mark was the usual symbol of Slytherin.

He had seen it on the door of Slytherin's research room. It was obviously Voldemort's fourth Horcrux - Slytherin's Locket!

"That's it" Kreacher murmured quietly.

Sirius turned his head sharply. He had been paying attention to Kreacher, so he could naturally hear Kreacher's voice.

"You said this thing was left by Regulus? Why did he leave this thing? How should I open it?" Sirius asked.

However, the house elf just shook his head and muttered that he couldn't say it. His eyes the size of light bulbs were filled with tears, his nose was twitching, and he looked very pitiful.

But Sirius didn't mean to pity it at all, and still pressed it to tell more.

The old house elf couldn't withstand the pressure from Sirius, and suddenly let out a piercing scream.

"Destroy that thing! Master Regulus asked Kreacher to destroy that thing!"

After saying that, Kreacher's expression immediately changed. He trembled, grabbed the book that was thrown on the ground, and smashed it on his head.

"Bad Kreacher! Very bad, bad, bad Kreacher!" Kreacher hit his head with the book like crazy.

"Stop, I told you to stop!" Sirius snatched the book away, and Kreacher banged his head against the wall. Sirius had to reiterate several times to get the house elf to stop.

"You'd better not force it, Sirius! It looks like, as I guessed before, it must be restricted in some way." Ivan looked at Kreacher's miserable appearance and shook his head.

Then, Ivan turned his attention to the locket in Sirius' hand, hesitated for a moment, and said.

"I think this thing looks a bit like something that person left behind."

"That person? You mean Voldemort?!" Sirius was stunned at first, but he immediately understood who Ivan was referring to, and his brows instantly furrowed.

"Yes! When I was in second grade last school year, I saw something left by a mysterious person. It felt very similar to this!" Ivan couldn't explain how he learned that this thing was Voldemort's Horcrux. , I had no choice but to lie about the illusory feeling.

"Are you referring to the diary?" Harry remembered it immediately. He and Ron had asked Hermione what happened, so they naturally knew.

"What are you talking about?" Sirius looked at them strangely.

Before Ivan could speak, Harry told Sirius about how Lockhart was bewitched by dark magic items and attacked students in the second grade.

"Many people were frightened at the time. In the end, Ivan was the one who defeated Professor Lockhart and destroyed those dark magic items." Harry said excitedly about Ivan's glorious history.

Sirius and Lupine both looked at Ivan in surprise. Although they knew that Ivan was not an ordinary little wizard, they did not expect that Ivan had such a legendary experience in his second grade!

Ivan shrugged. He felt that that experience was really nothing to brag about. He almost overturned when dealing with a fifth-year Tom Riddle. It can only be said that he really underestimated him.

At this moment, Kreacher suddenly grabbed Ivan by the corner and asked excitedly. "Sir, you once destroyed the Dark Lord's belongings? Is this true?"

Thanks to the book friend for the box of lemon tea and l4639 for the 1,000 starting coins, Dege for not borrowing cigarettes, and the book reader Liu for the 100 starting coins.
