Chapter 353 Black’s Old Mansion

"Well, because I haven't stayed here for a long time..." Black's voice was a little embarrassed, "So, many places have not been cleaned at all... But I asked Kreacher to clean a guest room before..."

As he spoke, he shouted loudly, "Kreacher! Kreacher!"

An ugly and old house elf appeared in front of the two of them. Its skin showed very abnormal wrinkles, a lot of white hair came out of its big ears, and its eyes were very light in color and were covered with a layer of hair. The turbid gray mist has a fleshy nose that hangs unnaturally in front of the mouth, a bit like a tapir's nose. Of course, it can also be understood as a pig's nose.

"Good evening, Master." Kreacher bowed deeply.

"Kreacher, I asked you to clean a guest room, did you do it?" Black asked angrily, "Are you trying to excuse me by saying you are cleaning the room again?"

"Kreacher has been cleaning the noble Black family's house." Kreacher said without emotion, "Never stopped for a moment."

Black glared at it, "You're lying again, Kreacher, this place is even dirtier than the last time I came here! How on earth did you clean it!"

"Master, you are joking again." Kreacher bowed again, and then lowered his voice and said, "Master is a disgusting, ungrateful and dirty brat who often does things that make the mistress sad..."

Blake's eyes twitched, as if he wanted to scold it, but considering that there was a little wizard next to him, he didn't say anything.

After all, he and Robert were not acquaintances, he just invited him to stay at home for a while out of gratitude, so he didn't particularly want Robert to know about the dirty things going on in their family.

"The young master escaped from Azkaban, Merlin, there has never been such a person in the Black family, oh, my poor mistress." Klee said in pieces, "If she knew that the house was occupied by a murderer, What would a prisoner say if he came in?"

"I didn't kill anyone!" Black finally couldn't help shouting angrily. "The Ministry of Magic has canceled my crime and awarded me the Order of Merlin, First Class Medal! This is a real First Class Medal, better than that What you buy with money is much more valuable!" As he said that, he looked at Kreacher proudly.

Kreacher's lips trembled, he lowered his head and continued to mutter, "Merlin, what happened to the Ministry of Magic? They actually awarded a medal to a criminal! The young master must have threatened the Ministry of Magic. Oh, he has let down the honor of the Black family!"

Black was furious, "I said! I! Didn't! Did! Kill! People! No! Damn it, Kreacher, did you clean up a living room and come out!"

Kreacher bowed, "Kreacher needs to clean up, Master." With that said, it dragged its feet and left.

The corner of Blake's mouth twitched wildly. After a while, he asked awkwardly, "Well, if you don't mind, do you want to live in a room with me? Let's make do with it tonight, tomorrow, tomorrow, I will help you clean up a room, how about it?"

"Then..." Robert could only say, "Excuse me..."

In the end, Robert and the middle-aged uncle shared a room. In fact, even Sirius Black's own room was not cleaned by Kreacher. The house elf seemed determined to fight against his master to the end. Well, maybe In his heart, Black is not his master at all.

Early the next morning, Blake got up and made breakfast. In fact, he had no talent for cooking. Therefore, in addition to bread, ham, and bacon, the two of them only had various canned foods for breakfast. , canned beef, canned fish, canned beans, canned corn...

Fortunately, it tastes pretty good...

As for things like oatmeal, Sirius Black said that he could only ensure that the pot did not burn...

Therefore, the two of them drank bottled milk, and they didn’t know which supermarket he bought it from.

There is a 24-hour supermarket nearby, which is simply unscientific.

After breakfast, the two were ready to start cleaning.

"I think we need to go to Diagon Alley..." Blake scratched his head, "Um, what kind of potions should I buy?"

"Well, if you don't mind, Mr. Black," Robert said sheepishly, "Actually, I have two house elf friends there. I can ask them to come over and help..."

"Why?"

The house elves Robert was talking about were naturally Dobby and Mr. Cole. Dobby was introduced to his friends by Harry before the summer vacation. Therefore, Robert knew that he had been looking for a job, but unfortunately there was no progress.

When he heard that Robert was willing to pay him to help clean a big house, Dobby was so excited that he ran over happily.

Cole said that he also had many house elf friends whose lives were not very good. If Robert was willing to provide some food, they would be willing to come and help.

So, Black originally thought that two house elves would come over, but as a result, a large group of house elves came over all of a sudden.

Black, who was a little dumbfounded, watched the group of little guys happily renovating the Black mansion, and he actually came up with the idea of ​​"How about I change it to a house elf".

Of course, this thought was just a fleeting thought. Don't look at Kreacher and Black just bickering when they met. In fact, they both understood that each other might be the last family members in the world. Of course, for Black, Harry is also his. Family, but there’s no way to bring people over right now!

After the other house elves left, Kreacher appeared in front of Robert with a sullen face and stared at him.

Robert raised his eyebrows, was he discovered so soon?

In fact, before the house elves came, Robert cast a Stunning Charm on each portrait to prevent them from scaring the little ones.

However, the life-size portrait facing the stairs was the most special. After the curtain was lifted, the lady began to scream hysterically. The sound could even shock the soul, and all kinds of vicious words came out of her dry mouth. Her mouth jumped out, and she even threw the curtain far away in an attempt to prevent Robert from covering her.

However, in front of his new partners, this trick was a bit insufficient.

After the synthetic magic circle was successfully activated, Zi Moss and the Basilisk gained different abilities one after another. These abilities required him and Hermione to discover by themselves, and Robert happened to know one of Zi Moss's abilities.

He patted the little purple snake on his wrist and said to Mrs. Black in a gentle tone, "Madam, it's time for you to rest for a while..."

The old lady only had time to see a pair of golden eyes before she lost consciousness.

She was temporarily petrified by the purple moss and could no longer make a sound.

Robert managed to cover her with a curtain. At least, she would not wake up in the next few days.
