Chapter 288 Returning to the Black House! Things are different!
The next day, afternoon.
Argus followed Lupin and Sirius to Grimmauld Place.
Because the Quidditch World Cup is about to be held, the Ministry of Magic needs Aurors to manage and maintain order.
The pursuit of Sirius has slowed down a lot.
Therefore, he can take Argus back to this home he hasn't returned to for more than ten years.
"Isn't this a Muggle city?"
"Why come here?"
Argus pretended not to understand.
Sirius and Lupin looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
"I didn't expect that there are things that Mr. Grindelwald doesn't understand. It's really rare!"
"I'm not Merlin." Argus smiled helplessly: "Even if it's Merlin, it's impossible to know all the answers in this world."
"Otherwise, he wouldn't become history."
"Yes, Merlin is not omnipotent." Sirius returned to his hometown and was also very emotional.
He brought Lupin and Argus to No. 12 Grimmauld Place.
It has been a year or two since Argus last came here.
But there seems to be no change here.
Sirius's face suddenly changed when he opened the barrier.
"What's wrong, Padfoot?" Lupin asked hurriedly.
"No, someone has been here!"
"Someone has been here? Is it your brother or the Ministry of Magic?"
"It can't be Regulus, he knows the magic of the Black family and won't use such means!"
"Is it the Ministry of Magic? How dare they break into the Black old house!" Lupin couldn't believe it.
The ancestral home of the pure-blood family is the bottom line. Even if the descendants are completely wiped out, no one will be allowed to enter.
How dare the Ministry of Magic!
Argus looked normal, and his expression did not change at all because of what the two said.
Even if he was himself a few years ago, he was sure that he would not be discovered.
Polyjuice Potion, plus the disappearance of Kreacher, the only witness.
Even if Dumbledore came, he couldn't find any evidence.
As for helping Regulus clear his name... forget it!
Even if he proved that he was a warrior who resisted Voldemort, what would it matter?
Make Sirius feel guilty? Or can he make the Black family completely belong to him?
Why should I do such a thankless task?
Sirius strode into the house he had been away from for a long time.
The house was covered with dust, and it was obvious that no one had cleaned it for a long time.
"Damn lazy Kreacher!"
"Do you really think that all the Black family members are dead? You didn't even clean it!"
Sirius seemed to feel embarrassed in front of his friends and Argus, and he couldn't hold it in.
He shouted at the top of his voice.
"Kreacher! Get in front of me now!"
"Kreacher!"
"Get over here!"
He shouted several times but got no response.
Sirius finally realized something was wrong and hurried into the house.
He had just walked a few steps when he heard Mrs. Black's portrait cursing.
"How dare you, a rebellious son, come back!"
"Dirty bastard!"
"Look at what you brought! Werewolf! Beast!"
"Defile the Black family's mansion!"
"Get out of here!"
"Shut up!"
Sirius' mouth twitched, and he was also not happy with the fucking portrait.
Lupin next to him was scolded so much that he dared not look up. It was obvious that he had experienced this scene more than once.
Agus, who followed behind the two, walked forward slowly and bowed slightly to the portrait of Mrs. Black.
"Dear Mrs. Black, good afternoon."
"It's an honor to meet you."
Seeing Agus's elegant manners and gorgeous clothes, Mrs. Black's expression eased slightly.
"Whose family are you from, child?"
"Grindelwald family."
"Grindelwald..."
Mrs. Black had experienced the Grindelwald era, and was slightly stunned when she heard Agus's surname.
"Mr. Gellert Grindelwald is..."
"My father!"
After getting a satisfactory answer, Mrs. Black finally smiled.
"Come in, good boy!"
"The Black family welcomes you!"
Turning her head to look at Sirius, she immediately changed her expression.
"Rebellious son, hurry up and pour tea! How could the Black family produce someone like you!"
"Where's Kreacher! Where is he! Do I need to do this?"
Sirius said impatiently.
"Dead! Because of the bastard things you did!"
"The kid from the Malfoy family come in and kill him!"
"Lucius from the Malfoy family! It must be him! This damn Death Eater!" Sirius knew that his mother would not lie to him about such things.
Gnashed her teeth in anger!
"I knew he was still obsessed with the You-Know-Who!"
"It's not Lucius, it's Narcissa's son, Malfoy! You idiot!" Mrs. Black couldn't stand Sirius.
"Two years ago, he came in under the name of Narcissa, killed Kreacher, and took the necklace from his neck!"
"No one in the Malfoy family is good!" Sirius was angry.
He kicked the wall hard.
"Sirius, calm down!" Argus had expected this scene.
"Think about it, Draco was only a first-year student two years ago! How could he break into the Black mansion!"
"It is even more impossible for him to be able to kill Kreacher!"
"Yes, Sirius!" Lupin also echoed.
"I have met Draco. Although he is from the Malfoy family, he is not as cunning as his father."
"He is still Harry's friend. He can't do such a thing."
Sirius hesitated.
"Not him? Then why..."
"There are too many magics in the magic world that can disguise, Polyjuice Potion, Disguise Magus... It is impossible to determine the murderer based on appearance alone."
"That's right." Argus nodded: "Let's not talk about anything else, just Polyjuice Potion, which pure-blood family doesn't have it?"
"As long as you pay a little attention at the dinner, it's not difficult to find Draco's hair."
The analysis of Argus and Lupin completely overloaded Sirius's brain.
He was not a person who was good at thinking, otherwise he would not have come up with such a stupid idea of going to Azkaban to atone for his sins.
Unable to think of a solution, he pulled his hair hard.
"What should we do then! We can't do nothing!"
On the wall, Mrs. Black saw the scene of Sirius's impotence and rage, and spoke again.
"Waste! Pure-blood traitor!"
"If your brother were here, he would never be like you, just yelling!"
"You can't even protect your own family, what else can you do!"
Sirius was annoyed by the scolding, but he couldn't scold her in front of Argus and Lupin.
Furious, he picked up a black cloth and covered her.
Turning to look at Argus.
"Don't worry about her, I'll take you to see something first."
"The Black family has a lot of books, and only the blood of the Black family can bring people in."
"Come with me, there are many rooms, don't get separated."
