Hogwarts: This wizard wants to improve too much

As the Muggle houses outside separated, the Black House at No. 12 Grimmauld Place was truly revealed.

The first thing that caught my eye was a scratched, black-painted door. The silver door handle was in the shape of a large snake. There was no keyhole or mailbox on the door.

Besides that, other places were not much better. The whole house was dirty and messy, and the windows were even more filthy.

Harry glanced at the so-called Black House and looked at Sirius with some doubt.

This was completely inconsistent with the image of the old house of a magic family that had been passed down for thousands of years in his imagination.

However, Ethan did not dare to underestimate this old house. To be selected as the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, there must be a lot of spells arranged in it.

Sirius also noticed Harry's eyes and felt a little embarrassed for a while.

If I had known earlier, I would have cleaned it up in advance, but now I feel like I have fallen into poverty for my godson.

It was really unpleasant. You know, this is one of the oldest and richest pure-blood wizard families in Britain.

As a result, now it looks like a poor family.

It was also my fault. I was fighting with my mother at home these days and didn't pay any attention to these things.

In order to receive Harry, I tried to lock my mother's portrait in the basement last night, just because I was afraid that she would scare Harry.

But it still failed. I don't know if it was because of the permanent adhesion spell, but it couldn't be taken down at all.

Sirius couldn't just destroy the painting. Even if the relationship was bad at the beginning, she was still his mother.

As a result, the fight lasted until midnight. Sirius had no choice but to cover it with curtains.

This led to Sirius not cleaning it up even though he had been home for so long.

Kreacher was also playing it down. If Sirius didn't tell him to, he wouldn't move at all. He hadn't taken the initiative to clean for so many years.

After coughing twice to cover up his embarrassment, Sirius took out his wand and tapped the silver snake-shaped door handle.

With a "creaking" sound, the heavy black door slowly opened.

Sirius took the lead and walked in front. Ethan and others followed and found that the inside was not much better than the outside.

After walking in, there was a long corridor with a strong musty smell. The walls were covered with peeling wallpaper, worn carpets, gas lamps, and a large snake-shaped spider web chandelier and candlesticks.

On the walls on both sides were some portraits that had turned black due to age. Among them, there was a huge portrait covered by a curtain that was eaten by insects and moldy.

At the end, there was a staircase leading upstairs.

When Ethan walked past here, he was prepared for the person in the portrait to rush out, but it turned out to be in vain, there was no movement at all.

According to Ethan's originalAccording to Sirius's mother, if she knew that a Muggle wizard had entered her old house and was going to take away her inheritance, she would probably make a big fuss and try every means to drive him out.

But now she has not made any move at all, so she must have accepted her fate.

Ethan guessed that she knew that Sirius had made an unbreakable oath with him.

That's why he didn't dare to act rashly. If Sirius broke the contract, the only child in their family would be gone.

Although his mother didn't like Sirius and even expelled him from the family, he was her son after all. After Regulus' death, he was the only hope of the family.

It was probably because this only hope went to Azkaban that she died of depression. Otherwise, a wizard can live quite well without being injured or cursed, and he wouldn't die at the age of fifty like her.

Sirius also looked at the portrait of his mother in surprise, and then did not stop here, and took Ethan and others up the stairs, ready to go to the second floor.

Only on the wall next to the stairs on the second floor, there were heads of house elves.

"Sirius, what is this?"

When Harry saw this scene, the hair on his body stood up.

Harry, who had been in contact with Dobby, had a good sense of house elves. Now he was really shocked when he suddenly saw these.

Although Dobby had cheated Harry badly at the beginning, Harry forgave him after knowing that Dobby was thinking about him, and helped Dobby get rid of his status as a servant of the Malfoy family.

"These are the house elves who once served the Black family. After they died, they left their heads here. They regarded this as the highest honor."

Sirius said with a little sarcasm. Under the leadership of his family, all the house elves who served their family had extremely crooked personalities.

At least that's what Sirius thought.

Seeing this, Harry didn't ask any more questions.

Harry also knew something about Sirius and his family.

And these house elves all voluntarily left their heads here, so Harry couldn't say much.

Harry deeply agreed with the house elves' different brain circuits from ordinary people.

After all, any normal person would not use Dobby's method to stop himself from going to Hogwarts.

Later, in order to let himself go home, he almost killed himself.

If Harry didn't know that Dobby had no ill intentions, he would never forgive him.

Following Sirius, Ethan and others came directly to the living room, where one can still see how gorgeous and exquisite it once was.

There is a large window in front overlooking the street in front of the house, and a large fireplace on the side. On both sides of the fireplace are gorgeous glass cabinets, but the door of the glass cabinet is already quite dirty, and there are all kinds of strange black magic objects inside.

For example, there were rusty daggers, claws of magical animals, coiled snake skins, a decorative crystal bottle with an opal inlaid on it, blood inside, a silver snuff box filled with tumor powder, tweezers with multiple legs that crawled like spiders, a gray box, and a large gold ring with the seal of the Black family...

The other wall was covered with a tree-shaped family tree tapestry of the Black family.

In addition to these, Ethan also found more than a dozen vixens and a boggart here.

Ethan didn't know how Sirius Black could live in such an environment.

Not only Ethan, but Harry and Lupin also found this, which made Sirius Black a little embarrassed.

"Adrian, this is one of the conditions I promised you. Half of the cash in the Black family's inheritance. Of course, I have used my portion for the consumption during this period, and I have not withdrawn from yours."

In order to divert attention, Sirius could only get to the point as soon as possible.

Whether it was in Gringotts or the family's vault, Sirius took out half of the gold Galleons.

As for the fact that there was a wanted order and he could not show his face, it was completely bullshit in the eyes of the goblins. They would only look at the gold Galleons. Sirius only needed to show his identity to freely dispose of his family's inheritance.

After all, the Black family has been declining, and many industries have been handed over to the goblins to manage, which has made them a lot of money.

Once Sirius died, these industries would definitely be occupied by other wizard families, and would never be left to the goblins, such as those pure-blood families who were related to the Black family, which would make the goblins completely lose this income.

It can be said that these goblins wanted Sirius to be alive more than he did.

Looking at the dragon skin bag in Sirius's hand, Ethan didn't say much and took it directly. (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

Harry and Lupin just took a look and then shifted their sights.

It was a normal transaction. Although Peter ran away, the pot was Snape and Ron's, and it had nothing to do with Ethan.

Although Ethan took a big advantage, he and Sirius were also willing to fight and suffer.

". Kreacher!"

Sirius shouted at the empty living room.

The first transaction was completed, and there were two more to come.

As the echoes echoed throughout the old Black house, accompanied by a snap, a sloppy and very old house elf appeared in front of the four people.

Wrinkled skin, bald head, a lot of white hair growing out of big bat-like ears, gray eyes, fleshy pig nose, plus the ragged clothes on his body, just this appearance is really far inferior to his own house-elf Hutch.

"Kreacher, why didn't you clean the house when I was away?"

Looking at the house-elf in front of him, Sirius was furious.

Although he did not order it, cleaning is also the duty of the house elf.

Besides, it is estimated that Kreacher has not cleaned since his mother died. What kind of house elf is he?

Since the house elf has been completely brainwashed by his mother, he naturally has no good impression of Kreacher.

Since he has been back for so long, Sirius has never looked for Kreacher, let alone asked him to serve him.

Although Sirius is now the head of the Black family, Kreacher does not have a good attitude towards him. He still recognizes Regulus the most.

Naturally, he will not hang around Sirius. After all, according to the rules of the house elves, he must listen to the master.

"The young master who was expelled from the noble Black family by the mistress, did not expect that today the young master brought two dirty brats, and one..."

"Shut up, Kreacher!"

Hearing Kreacher's words, Sirius's face immediately turned red.

I did not expect that his mother did not come out to make trouble, but Kreacher did this to him.

This is also the reason why he did not want to contact him.

Hearing Sirius's anger, Kreacher did not dare to speak, and stood aside with some shrinking.

"Adrian needs something from you, give it to him no matter what he wants."

"Then clean up the Black old house for me. If there is any dust, you will get out of the Black family. There is no need for useless house elves like you here."

Sirius yelled the last few words directly.

If it were not for the fact that he was too old and had been in the Black family for many years, he would have been expelled the moment he came back.

He dared to talk to me like that now. I was kind enough not to chase him away immediately.

Kreacher's body suddenly trembled, and he shouted loudly:

"I will obey your orders, respected master."

Sirius' words just now scared him a lot. Protecting the Black family was his only reason to live. It would be better to die than to leave.

Although he didn't approve of Sirius, the Black family was his only thing. .
