Chapter 228 Collection of Books
Early the next morning, Wright got up from the big bed, rubbed his hazy eyes, washed up, and went to the living room to prepare for dinner.
However, when he just went downstairs, Wright found that he was the first one to get up.
But he didn't have to wait long, as Harry and Lupin, who had a good schedule, quickly came to the living room.
The three of them sat at the dining table and talked. After waiting for a while, Sirius came down from upstairs yawning.
He rubbed his eyes and sat at the dining table, looking at the three people who got up early in surprise, and asked with a little concern:
"Did you guys rest well? I hope nothing disturbed you!"
Hearing Sirius's concern, Wright smiled and explained: "Thank you for your concern, I rested well!"
"I usually get up early because I need to go to class. I'm used to getting up so early. I won't get up so early in two days."
"Yeah, yeah, my lounge is great too! I've never slept in such a big bed before."
Harry's eyes sparkled and he looked extremely happy. Lupin also smiled and nodded in agreement.
"Hahaha! Just get used to it. If you have any problems, just tell me."
After knowing that his friends had rested well, Sirius breathed a sigh of relief and continued:
"Let's have breakfast! You must be hungry."
Then he clapped his hands and shouted loudly for Kreacher to come out.
As soon as he finished speaking, Kreacher appeared out of thin air at the dining table with a pile of empty plates.
It silently placed the dishes on the table, looking extremely humble.
Then, Kreacher brought a small bowl of toast, a bowl of milk and fish and chips, and disappeared, never to be seen again.
Today's breakfast is very simple, which seems ironic compared to the sumptuous dinner last night.
Sirius looked at the food on the table and his expression gradually became extremely gloomy.
He knew Kreacher would do this, completely on purpose.
It wouldn't work properly if Sirius hadn't specifically told it to.
Just like this breakfast, casual and perfunctory!
Seeing Sirius' increasingly unstable mood, Wright, Harry and Lupin hurriedly tried to persuade him to calm down.
Otherwise, considering how much he values his friends, he might have accidentally killed Kreacher.
After finally comforting Sirius, the four of them casually finished their breakfast in that strange atmosphere.
After finishing the meal, Wright looked at Sirius, who was still a little angry, and asked directly:
"Can I read the books here? I want to learn. I want to improve."
As a poor student, Harry couldn't help shrinking his head when he heard such a strange request, and quietly looked at his godfather.
Hearing Light's request, Sirius immediately patted his chest and said that it was no problem, and said generously:
"of course can!"
"My friend, all the books in the Black family will be open to you."
After agreeing to Wright, he immediately called Kreacher and asked him to lead the way to the library!
Kreacher was called out again, and in a voice that everyone could hear, he kept muttering:
"Damn prodigal son, he really won't be happy until he squanders all the family property."
"To actually allow a half-blood into the family library is really a disgrace to the family..."
The elderly house-elf paid no attention to Sirius's growing anger.
Whenever it is not working, it will always hide aside and observe secretly, occasionally making a few sarcastic remarks.
"That's enough, Kreacher! Now I order you to take Wright to the hidden library."
Hearing these taunts, Sirius also became angry and gave orders directly and forcefully.
"Okay! I'll take him there."
The dissatisfied Kreacher led the way, muttering:
"Damn you, little brat! If you hadn't met that loser, how could you have gotten here?"
"I knew you guys had a conspiracy..."
Light didn't waste any time arguing with the elderly house-elf.
After all, he is just a guest, there is no need to care so much.
Under Kreacher's guidance, Wright soon came to a huge and heavy wooden door and stopped.
"Click! Click..."
As the hoarse sound of pushing the door continued, a huge space appeared in front of Wright.
The entire library is like a circular plaza, with countless bookshelves placed close to the walls.
Countless ordinary bookshelves surround the reading area in the middle of the square.
Along the surrounding walls, there are bookshelves that reach up to the ceiling, filled with densely packed books.
It’s just that Sirius didn’t seem to care much about these books and didn’t clean the place, making it look very dirty.
Looking at the books stored here, Wright couldn't help but sigh:
"As expected of a pure-blood family that has lasted for a thousand years without extinction. This reserve of knowledge is truly outrageous."
Hearing Wright's praise for the family history, Kreacher raised his head, looking proud.
Seeing how proud it was, Wright couldn't help but say:
"However, the Black family will soon be extinct, and you have made a great contribution to this."
Kreacher, who was feeling proud, immediately became extremely angry and looked up at him angrily.
But it could only see Wright's eyes which had turned extremely dark.
The moment their eyes met, invisible fear instantly eroded Kreacher's heart and spirit like a poisonous snake.
"The secret you're hiding will really ruin everything."
"Think about it carefully! Don't make any mistakes."
After saying this, Wright ignored Kreacher who was standing there in a daze due to fear, and walked straight towards the bookshelf.
A dark nightmare fog surged out, covering the area.
The black fog quickly penetrated into the book and began to reproduce all the pictures and texts inside.
Using this method, Wright quickly collected all the knowledge here into his own reserves.
In the following time, Kreacher, who had been frightened once, became much more obedient.
Not only will they stop cursing, but they will also complete their work very seriously.
Such a change made Sirius feel incredible.
He even asked Kreacher to go to St. Mungo's Hospital for a check-up to see if there was something wrong with its brain.
It ignored Sirius's mocking concern and just worked quietly.
Although under Wright's terrifying threats, Kreacher no longer passively resisted his work.
But every time it sees Wright, its expression becomes very conflicted.
But Wright did not continue to force it, after all, there was still plenty of time.
Now, there is no need to waste so much time on an unactivated Horcrux.
On the contrary, Wright has now shifted all his attention to monitoring Pettigrew.
