Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs

Chapter 82: The Family Mansion

"It seems the main custodian is a house elf."

Harry was a little confused.

Sirius Black hesitated for a moment: "I heard that the house elves of the Malfoy family once betrayed the Malfoy family because of you. Maybe you are more suitable to deal with the house elves?"

Harry shook his head. He thought this was a bit ridiculous.

"I'm not that popular with the house elves. Dobby almost got me killed. And why is your main custodian a house elf? Aren't you still here?"

Sirius Black was silent for a moment, then turned and glanced at Lupine: "Well...it involves the reason why I hate You-Know-Who, the pure-blood family..."

He waved his hand and did not continue.

Harry shook his head: "I will help, but you have to tell me what I should do?"

Sirius Black nodded: "The key now is this."

"The Black family has many relatives, and almost all of them are Death Eaters. Dumbledore suspects that they have hidden something important in Gringotts."

"There is a simple way, that is, through inheritance law. I am the last direct son of the Black family. As long as it is recognized, those people who are determined to be in Azkaban, their vaults in Gringotts will belong to me. "

Harry was stunned for a moment: "That simple?"

Sirius Black smiled: "You underestimate the difficulty of this, Harry. Almost no wizard has ever succeeded in history, because the goblins hope that there will be no more owners in the treasure house, and then the contents will belong to them."

Harry nodded: "Then why don't you give up and find another way?"

He could see better than anyone that Sirius Black was extremely resistant to this plan.

Sirius Black shook his head: "But I can't help Dumbledore now. You know, now... the situation is very bad, everything is a mess."

Harry glanced at Lupin.

Lupine, who had been silent all this time, nodded: "Do you still remember the Dementors?"

Harry nodded: "What happened to them?"

Lupine glanced outside the window: "They may have joined the mysterious man's camp. In other words, those Death Eaters may be coming back soon."

Harry was stunned for a moment.

He wanted to ask why, but he didn't know why, and he immediately understood the reason for everything.

Dementors are originally extremely dark creatures. They must believe that the wizarding world ruled by Voldemort is dark enough for them to live happily.

"Are we going to get ahead of those Death Eaters?"

Harry sighed: "Take me to meet that house elf."

Sirius Black nodded: "But before that, I must remind you that he is a complete monster and has turned into a madman. You'd better be mentally prepared."

Harry nodded.

Then the three of them turned around and walked out of the room.

They walked through a long corridor, Sirius Black impatiently opening the doors on the side of the corridor one after another, and finally found the house elf they were looking for behind a door.

"Kreacher..."

This is a very old-looking house elf, wrapped in a rag. The most conspicuous thing is his big nose, which looks like a pig's nose.

"Oh...it's the young master..."

"He brought a shady person who didn't know where he came from and brought shame to the family's ancestral home. He was born into the noble Black family, but he found a werewolf as his friend..."

Sirius Black looked at Kreacher with a gloomy expression, and then nodded: "I wonder if you know this, Harry Potter."

Kreacher glanced up, his expression looking as if he had just woken up.

"Ah...that scar..."

Harry looked at the house elf in front of him, then nodded awkwardly: "Hello..."

Kreacher glanced at Harry, and then whispered as if the three people in front of him couldn't hear him: "I don't know how he did it."

Harry gave Sirius Black a confused look.

Sirius Black looked at Kreacher helplessly: "Speak well, Kreacher, this is Harry Potter, he is different from me."

Kreacher glanced at Sirius Black: "Bastards like my little master are rare in the world."

Harry looked angry, but Sirius Black held out his hand to stop him.

"No, Harry."

Harry shook his head, turned and left.

Sirius Black sighed helplessly: "Go clean the house, Kreacher."

The old house elf Kreacher glanced at Sirius: "I'm just cleaning the house."

Sirius Black said nothing more, turned around and followed Harry into the large room just now.

"So you see, Kreacher...it has lived with my mother in this old house for too long, and it has completely turned into a madman."

Harry shook his head: "I don't know..."

Sirius Black smiled helplessly: "I'll take you to see our tapestry."

"After watching it, you will know how much we can gain if our plan succeeds."

He led Harry out of the room, walked through the corridor, and then came to a room. On the innermost wall of the room was a tapestry with a pattern like an upside-down tree embroidered with gold thread.

"This is my family tree."

Sirius Black stood in front of the tapestry and sighed.

At the top of the tapestry, there are two lines of big words: "The Noble and Most Ancient Black Family", and "Forever Pure".

Harry walked under the tapestry, glanced from top to bottom, and then saw the bottom.

"Your name is not here."

Sirius Black nodded: "It was there before, but it disappeared after I was seventeen."

He pointed to a black spot at the bottom that looked like it had been burned.

Harry sighed: "What happened?"

Sirius Black smiled: "Running away from home, nothing strange."

Harry was stunned for a moment: "Why?"

Sirius Black smiled and shook his head: "Why? Because this family is full of lunatics. My parents think that the Black family is born the most noble in the world. My stupid brother who is better than me in everything actually became a Death Eater. In short, I only regret why I didn't escape earlier."

Harry fell silent.

Lupin put his hand on Harry's shoulder from behind him: "Don't worry about it, Harry. You know that Sirius lived in your parents' house after he ran away from home. During that time, he not only did not suffer any grievances, but also lived better than anyone else. Your grandparents treated him as their own son."
