Sirius had no reason to reject this suggestion, nodded and said: "I... go up and have a look, the room where Regulus and I live is up there, maybe there will be some clues left."
The footsteps outside the living room gradually faded away, and then Dumbledore said: "Konno, please continue to ask Kreacher, maybe there will be a different result."
"What's the difference?" Kong Nuo asked curiously.
"There are so many differences..." Dumbledore sighed, "Black ignored Kreacher's feelings. In fact, many wizards will make the same mistake."
"They see house-elves as omnipotent tools, refer to 'him' as 'it', and use them for granted without regard to how house-elves feel."
"Speaking of it this way, I understand!" Connor had already gotten what Dumbledore meant, "Just like Lucius, he also treats Dobby as a tool, so Dobby will betray him."
Dumbledore smiled slightly and said, "House-elves are also creatures, and they also have thoughts, but their thoughts are more pure. Even if they are submissive, they will understand that person is better for him."
"In Kreacher's mind, Walburga Black's status should be on par with Regulus' status, and even Regulus' status is even higher."
"Therefore, Kreacher will prioritize Regulus' orders, which is why he can resist Black's orders."
"Both you and Blake had a conversation with Kreacher just now, aside from your strange magic, when Kreacher answered your questions, there was an obvious difference."
"Kreacher kept his mouth shut to Black, but he could reveal some key information under your questioning. So I speculate that Regulus should have given some kind of order to Kreacher before he was alive."
"Principal! As expected of you!" Kong Nuo said with emotion.
He looked at Kreacher again, "Sirius has gone, now can you tell us something about Regulus?"
Kreacher's attitude has completely changed, and he tried his best to stand upright, and only then did he tell the story of the year.
Ever since Sirius ran away from home, the Black family, which was already in decline, naturally focused all eyes on Regulus.
Regulus lived in an atmosphere of pure blood since he was a child, coupled with his parents' approval of Voldemort's ideas, which led to some false worship of Voldemort in him.
Because of Sirius, the Black family even became the capital of other pure-blood families to talk and laugh.
In order to respond to his parents' expectations and to regain the glory of the Black family, Regulus still became a Death Eater through his own efforts.
Kreacher gritted his teeth and said, "The young master would occasionally sneak into the young master's room. If it weren't for the young master's insistence, Kreacher would have cleaned up the young master's room long ago!"
"If it weren't for the pure-blooded traitor of the young master, the young master wouldn't have to force himself so hard, but such a great person would have to carry the shame that the young master brought to the family..."
In his opinion, if it wasn't for Sirius destroying the glory of the Black family, Regulus wouldn't need to prove himself, so he joined the Death Eaters and eventually lost his life.
After Regulus joined the Death Eaters, he gradually realized the brutality of the Death Eaters and Voldemort. At the same time, he also had doubts about Voldemort's ideas, and was gradually surrounded by pain.
He couldn't resist the Death Eaters and Voldemort, because he needed the identity of a Death Eater and couldn't live up to his parents' expectations.
But when the war between the Death Eaters and the English wizards intensified, Voldemort suddenly found him and wanted to recruit Kreacher to complete an experiment.
And this incident became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Regardless of Kreacher's life and death, Voldemort used Kreacher to experiment with the safety of the cave.
Satisfied with the results, Voldemort left the dying Kreacher and left the cave alone.
For Voldemort, the house-elf is just a tool that can be discarded at will. He didn't realize that the magic of the house-elf is very special.
Kreacher, who was dying, developed the belief that he wanted to return to the Black family, and finally escaped from the cave and met Regulus.
At this time, Regulus was completely awakened, and understood that Voldemort was a devil who regarded human life as nothing, and decided to resist Voldemort in his own way.
He and Kreacher returned to the cave again and drank the Potion of Despair himself, thus obtaining the Horcrux hidden in the stone basin by Voldemort.
Regulus knew the danger of this Horcrux, so he gave Kreacher his final order.
He told Kreacher that no matter what, members of the Black family should not let this secret be known, and he must find a way to destroy this Horcrux.
In the end, he wanted to drink water as an excuse, and was dragged into the water by the corpse hidden at the bottom of the lake, ending his short but heroic life.
After telling the whole story about Regulus, Kreacher seemed to have exhausted all his strength, fell to the ground, and fell into a coma.
Perhaps as Sirius said, Regulus was a weak man.
He couldn't break free from the shackles of his family, so he chose this method, on the one hand to defend the dignity of the family, and on the other hand to express his resistance.
Dumbledore sighed with emotion: "Only a strong and talented wizard can resist the power of the Potion of Despair and make such a decision in the end."
He hugged the unconscious Kreacher to the sofa, frowned and began to think, "Kreacher's attitude towards Black may not only be due to Walburga Black's order, but may also be influenced by the Horcrux. "
"It can be deduced from here that the Horcrux must be here..." His face suddenly changed, "Horcrux is an evil thing that can affect emotions! Black may be in danger!"
Before he and Kong Nuo set out to look for it, Sirius had already returned to the living room aggressively.
Sirius held his wand in one hand and something in the other.
He showed what he was holding in his hand, gritted his teeth and looked at the unconscious Kreacher on the sofa, "Did you see it? This is what Kreacher hid! It killed Regulus and took away his treasures ! I'm going to kill it!"
It was an extremely exquisite pendant box, not only the snake-shaped relief on the box body was vivid, but also the gems on the top of the box were extraordinary, giving it a ethereal and light feeling.
This is the real Slytherin Locket, as well as a mind-affecting Horcrux.
Sirius was already a little out of control, and coupled with the influence of the Horcrux, he just wanted to release a spell now.
"Avada Kedavra!"
The footsteps outside the living room gradually faded away, and then Dumbledore said: "Konno, please continue to ask Kreacher, maybe there will be a different result."
