Chapter 250 248 Malfoy Manor

Finny and Sirius smiled and said goodbye to the Malfoy family of three, and took Sirius' new motorcycle back to their old house in Grimmauld Place.

"By the way, Sirius, have you received Professor Dumbledore's invitation? He said that he would invite you to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts next year. Oh, by the way, I'm going to invite Harry here. During the holiday, as agreed, we can pick him up at his uncle’s house in a week.”

Sirius nodded, looked at Finny and asked,

"Finney, how does my new car look like?"

Feeney said,

"Not bad, it suits you well. By the way, did you modify this yourself?"

Sirius said proudly,

"Of course I modified it myself. I also had a flying motorcycle before, which I also modified myself, but I gave it to Hagrid."

Feeney smiled and said,

"It turns out that Hagrid's car was a gift from you. I was still wondering before. Muggle transportation like this is not allowed to be modified and sold in the magical world, so Hagrid couldn't have bought the car. He could only He was transformed by himself, he is not at that level yet,"

"Do you like it? Then I'll give you this one. I'll get another one later."

Sirius heard this and said,

Feeney waved his hand,

"Forget it. I usually let Puff take me when I go out. Even if something happens to Puff, I will apparate myself. Magic is still much more convenient than transportation. Besides, I don't have any feeling for flying tools."

Sirius didn't insist and pushed the motorcycle into the garage of Black's old house with a smile.

In fact, it is somewhat inaccurate to say that it is a garage. It is more like an expanded room, and it was recently expanded.

Finny frowned and asked,

"Sirius,"

"What's wrong?"

"Did you build this new garage? Did you do it yourself or did you hire someone to do it?"

When Sirius heard this, he understood what Finny was worried about, and said with a smile,

"Don't worry, it wasn't done by anyone else, it was done by the house elves. However, I chose the decoration inside."

Finny breathed a sigh of relief. Finny didn't care at all about Sirius' renovation of the old house. Anyway, with the existence of magic, everything was very convenient, and it wouldn't alarm the Muggles around, as long as he didn't find other people to do it. Just transform it.

You know, this place is protected by the Chidan Loyalty Curse. If you find other people to transform it, you must tell them the location of this place. Then the confidential Chidan Loyalty Curse will be in vain.

Fortunately, Sirius wasn't that stupid yet, or he wasn't that Gryffindor-y yet, so he knew how to protect the location of this old house and ensure the effectiveness of the Fidelity Charm.

"Speaking of which, Feeney, I wanted to ask you before. The secrecy magic of this house is pretty good in itself. Why did you specifically add the Loyalty Charm?"

The old Black family house at No. 12 Grimmauld Place has had its own secret magic from the beginning. It is hidden in two identical apartments next to it. Muggles will never find it, and ordinary wizards who don't know the inside story can't find it. It's hard to spot the houses here.

Therefore, in Sirius's view, it is somewhat unnecessary for Finny to cast the Loyalty Charm on the house. After all, if you want to hide the house, the confidentiality magic here is enough, and there is no need to use such harsh and difficult magic as the Loyalty Charm.

Sirius knew very well that this magic was not something that Finny could use more than ten years ago, nor was it a house-elf magic. Therefore, Finny must have found another wizard to perform this magic, and this wizard was very Most likely Dumbledore.

Feeney is a very pure Black, so he must have paid some conditions for Dumbledore to use this magic.

Finny thought for a moment, looked at Sirius and said,

"How should I put it? At that time, my parents died one after another, Regulus disappeared and most likely died, and you were captured in Azkaban. Most of the other branches of the Black family also left because of what happened in those few years. After leaving the UK and even Europe, a few families in the magical world had some ideas about the position of the head of the family. After seeing that the Black family only had a child of a few years old, they also had their own thoughts, suffering from internal and external troubles. Under such circumstances, as long as I die in an accident, it is impossible to save the Black family's property, let alone the position of the consular family in the Presbyterian Church. Therefore, I can only choose to stay in a very protected and secret place. The house awaits the arrival of the eleventh year old and his official entry into Hogwarts."

"As for the transaction you are thinking of with Professor Dumbledore, I must admit that the transaction does exist. In fact, this transaction has not been completely completed yet, but I will definitely not lose money. Moreover, I hid this at the beginning This house was built to protect myself. Later, as my power in the magic world grew, I also heard some hidden news. Finally, it was confirmed that the mysterious man was still alive and might return at any time. Therefore, this house The house protected by the Red Loyalty Charm is prepared as the last safe house for me and my friends."

Sirius sighed. He knew that the magic of this house must be related to his entry into Azkaban, but he did not expect that the situation in the magical world and the Black family would be like this. Moreover, the mysterious man might return at any time.

This news made him think of the organization that once fought against the mysterious man, the Order of the Phoenix established by Dumbledore. The mysterious man will return at any time, which means that the battle eleven years ago is still not over. In other words, the Order of the Phoenix still has the necessity of existence,

At that time, the headquarters of their Order of the Phoenix was located in a house in Dumbledore's only Hogsmeade, which was later found and destroyed by Death Eaters. So now the Order of the Phoenix still needs a headquarters,

Thinking of this, Sirius couldn't help but glance at his old house, and then looked at Finny,

He was hesitant about how to speak. If he was the only one left in the Black family, then he would definitely not hesitate to donate this old house as the new headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix.

But no, now the Black family still has Feeney, who is also the heir and is not yet an adult. He does not own the old house alone, and Feeney also has the power to deal with it.

Not to mention, over the past eleven years, Feeney has made many improvements to this old house. Now it is perfect in terms of security, privacy, and practicality. Feeney will definitely not agree to it being the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix. And provided to Dumbledore and the others.

Feeney noticed Sirius's eyes, and after thinking about the development of the original work, he understood Sirius's thoughts, and said with a smile,

"You want to make this the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix?"

Sirius thought that Finny had the same idea, so he couldn't help but laugh excitedly.

As a result, Feeney's next words made the smile on his face freeze.

"Sirius, this is the old home of the Black family. Unless it is destroyed, we have no right to trade it to anyone. Not to mention, this place is also very important to me now, so, contribute to Forget it about the Order of the Phoenix."

Feeney paused and continued,

"If you want to provide a headquarters for the Order of the Phoenix, the Black family has a property in the village of Ottery-St. Catchpole in Devon. It is still vacant and has basic facilities. Secrecy Magic is suitable as the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix."

Sirius's eyes lit up and he said hurriedly,

"Take me to see it quickly,"

Feeney rolled his eyes and said,

"You haven't seen the current state of the Black family's property in the past few months, have you? Besides, I just came back. Even if I want to see it, it will have to be the day after tomorrow. We have to visit the Malfoy family tomorrow."

Feeney was very depressed in his heart. If he had known that Sirius was so perfunctory and uninterested in the Black family's property, he wouldn't have been in a hurry to prepare an asset retreat for himself. He must have known that transferring assets some time ago and preparing a retreat would have ruined him. A lot of effort.

Sirius hesitated for a moment. To be honest, he didn't want to visit the Malfoy family with Finny. In other words, in his opinion, it was unnecessary for Finny to visit the Malfoy family.

As for the status of the Presbyterian Council, it is dispensable in Sirius's opinion. In his opinion, Dumbledore is the greatest wizard in the magic world today, and the Order of the Phoenix is ​​the most powerful organization. All he has to do is Under the leadership of Dumbledore, defeat the mysterious man and his Death Eaters, and then you can live a quiet life.

In fact, it is not surprising that Sirius has such thoughts. After all, he was kicked out of the Black family by his mother when he was a teenager and has been living in the Potter family.

The Potter family did know something about the Presbyterian Church, and they were also a sworn family of the Presbyterian Church. However, they did not tell James Potter, who had a son, about the Presbyterian Church, let alone Sirius, who was not in their family. ,

Therefore, he didn't know anything about legendary wizards or even becoming gods, and he didn't know and value the Presbyterian Church as much as Feeney, who had known about it since he was a child and knew many secret wizards.

Finny smiled and said nothing. He naturally saw Sirius's dissatisfaction with visiting the Malfoy family but didn't say anything. In his plan, Sirius had nothing to do with saving him from Azkaban. Coming out is just a side result of sending Peter Pettigrew to Azkaban. For the Presbyterian Church, for the Black family, and for himself, Feeney has a whole series of plans. These will not be because of Sirius. The reappearance of the Black family and other factors that changed it,

This is like a prince vying for the throne. When he makes that choice and accumulates a certain amount of strength, even if he wants to give up, those behind him will push him to move forward until the end, or he successfully ascends the throne. To ascend to the throne is to either fail or die.

This is the situation of the Black family now. The family attached to it will push the Black family to move forward, and Feeney's current behavior of wooing the Malfoy family and subsequent exchanges with Greengrass are all to make this carriage destined to move forward even more It's just more stable and smoother.

Speaking of the Greengrass family, Feeney was very amused. This family was almost destroyed at the hands of their eldest daughter.

A person whose family was openly protected by the Presbyterian Church almost caused public outrage, and it was ridiculous to say that he was ruined by the eldest daughter of his own family.

Shaking his head slightly, Finny stretched and said to Sirius,

"I'm going back to my room to rest first. Call me for dinner. Then we can discuss how you modified that motorcycle. Although I don't like motorcycles, I am still quite interested in its modification. Sit down It was quite a tiring day on the train. To be honest, if I hadn't wanted to meet Harry's aunt and uncle this time, I would have definitely let Puff take me back without taking the hard and tiring Hogg. Watts Express.”

Sirius smiled and shook his head, not saying anything, but in his heart he was thinking about whether he and Finny should visit the Malfoy family tomorrow.

He really hates this family and really doesn't want to visit,

However, in his opinion, after all, he owed Feeney, and Feeney had obviously made many plans for the Black family, and they were still going on steadily, and the Malfoy family was probably more important in his plans. If he and Feeney go to visit together, the chance of success in what Feeney wants to do will be greatly increased.

Time flew by, and one night passed like this as Finny and Little Cerulean Star made assumptions and partially practiced the transformation of motorcycles and other Muggle items.

Of course, they were sleeping. After all, they were going to visit someone else's house the next day, and it would be very disrespectful to go there with dark circles under their eyes.

Malfoy Manor is located in Wiltshire, England. It is also the old residence of the Malfoy family. It has belonged to the family since the ancestor of the Malfoy family became a noble in the Muggle world.

This is a dignified lord's mansion, surrounded by well-designed gardens, with fountains and free-roaming white peacocks. The exquisite wrought iron gate allows visitors to feel like walking through smoke when passing through.

The Malfoy family, which claims to be a noble in the wizarding world, also put a lot of thought into the decoration of the manor. The entire manor is decorated in an extremely luxurious style, including luxurious furniture, marble fireplaces and gilded mirrors.

Because they had already greeted them at King's Cross Station yesterday, when Finny and Sirius arrived here, Lucius was already waiting for them at the gate of the manor.

They did not stay in the garden, but entered the mansion directly.

The foyer of the Malfoy family is very large, with portraits hanging on the walls and stone floor tiles almost entirely covered by gorgeous carpets.

The purple wallpaper illuminated by the huge crystal chandelier above makes this place full of luxury and weird wizard-specific style.

In the center of the entire living room is a huge dining table. It is not only a place for dining, but also a place for Lucius to talk with visitors. Of course, if it is a dance, it will not be held in the living room.
