Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard

Chapter 977 I just want to make a Horcrux

To celebrate the children's successful graduation from Hogwarts, Mrs. Weasley prepared a sumptuous dinner.

She invited many people, besides Sirius, Cedric who lived on the other side of the village, and the Lovegood family.

Even before dinner started, Hermione's family arrived.

Hermione's father, Mr. Granger, drove into the village of St. Catchpole, full of curiosity about the place.

Although he had been to Diagon Alley and King's Cross Station, famous attractions in the wizarding world more than once, this was his first time in a village where wizards lived.

Especially after seeing the Burrow, the crooked architectural style that couldn't even be stacked with building blocks made Mr. Granger stay in place.

He blinked blankly and looked at Mr. Weasley, who was petting his car.

"I heard that there are people who are not wizards living here. Do they...never find this place strange?"

When he said this, his eyes subconsciously fell on another house not far away.

Looking at it from his current perspective, the house seemed so normal.

There is no attic that is crooked and glued together, and there is no strange-shaped roof. It is so normal that it does not look like a place where wizards live.

"Don't worry, there are Muggle expulsion spells where wizards live, and they can't see them." Mr. Weasley said without looking back: "Oh, this car is great, can it fly?"

Mr. Granger was stunned again before he could recover from his last surprise.

He was driving a car, not a plane, how could he...

"I had a flying car before, but it was a pity that it was abandoned in the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts."

These words made Mr. Granger's brain freeze for a moment, but he soon remembered that Hermione seemed to have told him about this before, saying that her classmate missed the train and ended up driving a flying car. The car went to Hogwarts.

But that was many years ago.

While the two adults were chatting, Hermione had already run to find Ginny.

The Burrow has never been so lively. With nearly twenty wizards and one Muggle, even the garden seemed a bit crowded.

But everyone was happy, especially Mr. Granger, who would have stayed one night before going back if the rooms at the Burrow hadn't been limited.

After dinner, everyone parted ways in the garden.

Mr. Weasley watched helplessly as the car drove away from the village again, and Harry left the Burrow with Sirius and returned to No. 12 Grimmauld Place.

Kyle is closest to home, right next door.

He had been waiting for Sirius to come to him and ask for Snape's address, but several days passed and he never came.

On the contrary, it was Snape who took the initiative to come to the door one day and found Sirius who was about to open a shop in Diagon Alley.

After receiving the news from Lupine, Kyle did not hesitate and came to Grimmauld Place immediately.

Although Voldemort is dead, the magical protection here still exists, so Kyle can only apparate to a nearby abandoned public phone box.

When he walked out, there were already many familiar faces nearby.

Mr. Weasley, Lupin, Tonks, Fred, George...

His dad, Chris, also came, and Kyle saw him talking to Mr. Weasley.

"What happened!" Kyle walked over quickly, "Why are you all outside? Is there a fight inside?"

"I don't know." Fred frowned, "I don't know who locked the door. None of us can get in. We can only wait here."

"It's Sirius..."

Everyone looked at Lupine.

"You mean, Sirius took the initiative to lock the door to prevent Snape from escaping?" Fred's voice was filled with excitement.

George even pressed his face against the window next to the door, trying to see a little bit of what was going on inside, but even though he almost squeezed his facial features together, he couldn't see anything.

"I don't know if it was to trap Snape..." Lupine sighed, "Originally I wanted to stay, but Sirius refused."

"They're not really going to fight..." Fred suddenly raised his head.

"Why do you say that?"

"Look..." he analyzed seriously: "Remus is not allowed to participate because Snape is no longer a Death Eater. If he is killed, the Aurors will definitely come..."

Having said this, he suddenly looked at Tonks in the crowd and Kingsley who had just come over.

It sounds like they are Aurors, and one of them is the director of the Auror Office.

This is really convenient. As soon as the battle in the room is over, the Auror can arrest the person immediately without waiting.

Kingsley was also a little confused.

Fred was right, Snape was no longer a Death Eater, and killing him would definitely violate the Wizarding Laws.

What's even more troublesome is that Snape is also a member of the Order of the Phoenix and helps them deliver a lot of news. He is considered a hero hiding in the dark...well, half a hero.

Sirius is also a member of the Order of the Phoenix.

If they really fight, who should they help?

Still not helping each other.

Kingsley stood there, a little confused.

But Tonks has no such worries. She is related to the Black family, and Lupine and Sirius are best friends. Therefore, even if Snape is also a member of the Order of the Phoenix, she will unswervingly stand by him. Sirius's side.

He had already begun to think about what he would do later to naturally hold off Kingsley and give Sirius a chance to escape.

Kyle was also thinking, but the content was exactly the opposite of Tonks. He was thinking about whether Snape's capture would affect Connor.

Probably not, after all Kangna didn't follow him here.

In addition, since Snape would choose to come to the door, he would not be stupid enough to kill Sirius here. Even if there was a fight, he would probably choose to run away instead of fighting Sirius.

"Wait a minute, you won't believe his nonsense..." Seeing Kingsley and Tonks, the two Aurors, all lost in thought, Lupine quickly said: "I think Sirius just has something to say. Talk to Snape...

"After all, if he really wants to fight Snape, he can't leave Harry behind, right?"

Only then did everyone realize that Harry was also in the room.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier..."

Fred and George had a look of disappointment on their faces, while Kingsley breathed a sigh of relief. I

"Sorry, I just found out about it." Lu Ping said with a smile.

"Do you still want to stay here? It's better to go back to the Ministry of Magic. I don't think we need so many people."

"Forget it, it's already here, let's wait a while." Kyle said first.

He was so leisurely these days. He didn't need to worry that Voldemort would suddenly rush out and give him a wand, and he didn't have to go to class. Hagrid was responsible for taking care of the fire dragons, and Rozier was fully responsible for the Horcruxes... He was completely liberated. .

In the past few days, Kyle has been staying at home and busy with other things, and occasionally goes to Diagon Alley to relax.

By the way, when the Death Eaters were at their most rampant, his shop was closed for a while. But now it has reopened, but Dobby has ended his part-time job and returned to Newt's place. The new clerk was hired by him from the Hogwarts kitchen.

Originally, house elves would not easily leave the families they serve, because this would mean betrayal in their minds, but thanks to Kyle's identity as a Hogwarts professor, those elves agreed without any hesitation.

Hermione was particularly interested when talking about it last night.

After graduation, Hermione resumed her work as a house-elf rights advocate, but this time her focus changed.

Instead of forcing house elves to receive payment, she wrote an article asking wizards to treat house elves well.

The so-called rewards are no longer Xi Ke and Galleons, but have become richer food and handy tools.

Well, although this article can only be seen in "The Quibbler", it is said that she has received several letters.

Half of them scolded her, but the other half affirmed her point.

This encouraged Hermione, at least she had supporters instead of everyone being against her like at Hogwarts.

Kyle blinked and stopped thinking about this.

After a brief discussion, everyone still waited outside and listened carefully to the movements in the house. Some even took out their wands, preparing to forcefully break the door if they heard a sound.

But the room was quiet from beginning to end, not even the Weasley brothers' proud retractable ears heard any sound.

I don't know how long it took, but the door opened with a bang from the inside.

George, who was lying on the door eavesdropping, lost his balance for a moment, staggered and firmly, and bumped into Snape's arms.

At this moment, it seemed that even the wind had stopped.

After a period of heart-wrenching silence, George reacted first. Before Snape's arm waved over, he bent sideways, pretending to be nonchalant, and picked up an ear-shaped object on the ground.

At the same time, he also dodged the arm and cloak thrown by Snape.

"Oh, here, no wonder I haven't found it. I have to go and see if it's broken..." He said some incomparable words, walked forward quickly without looking back, and soon disappeared on the other side of the corridor. .

Snape's face turned livid.

But looking at the people standing outside, he still didn't say anything. He snorted and disappeared.

"In front of so many people, using Disapparation where Muggles can see it?" Tonks didn't like Snape, even now.

So when she said this, she deliberately used a loud voice to ensure that Kingsley could hear clearly.

Kingsley did hear it, but he chose to pretend not to.

It's just using Apparition. Even if Muggles see it, it's not a big deal. The people from the Incident Reversal Team can solve it in a second.

What's more, there are no Muggles on this road anymore.

Fearing that they might come to blows, Kingsley had evacuated all nearby Muggles twenty minutes ago and placed a Muggle-Repelling Charm around the area.

More than ten years ago, it was Sirius and Peter Pettigrew who blew up an entire Muggle street during their chase.

He didn't want this to happen again.

But this was convenient for Snape, as no Muggles saw his Apparition.

Tonks muttered something under her breath, seeming to be complaining about someone being derelict in their duties and using power for personal gain.

Kingsley still pretended not to hear.

"You..." Sirius stood at the door, looking at the people outside. He was a little speechless for a while, and then he hesitated and said:

"I didn't expect... Come on in and sit down."

"No." Kingsley shook his head, "I have other things to do, let's do it next time."

After saying that, he apparated away.

With him were Tonks, also an Auror, and Mr. Weasley and Chris, who were still at work.

They all hurried over after receiving the news. Now that they are fine, they naturally have to go back to work as soon as possible.

But Kyle stayed, he happened to have something to see Sirius.

The two walked into the house, and sure enough, Harry was there.

I don't know what they just said to Snape. Harry was sitting on the chair in the hall in a daze and didn't even notice anyone else coming.

"He...um..." Sirius looked at Kyle, wanting to explain, but seemed to have some concerns.

"It's okay, you don't need to explain to me, I can probably think of it." Kyle said.

Snape came to see Sirius...no, it should be said that he came to Harry only because of Lily Evans.

As for what they said specifically, Kyle didn't know and wasn't interested.

Fred and George also stayed, and they were cheering Harry up in their own way... George lit a Weasley magic firework and stuffed it into Harry's shoe.

A few seconds later, two flames suddenly burst out from under Harry's feet, and he flew up like a rocket.

Just for a moment, he stopped being in a daze and started screaming and running around the room.

"Sorry, Sirius." Fred said with a smile, "We just think Harry should cheer up."

"And you can rest assured that our Weasley magical fireworks have undergone rigorous testing and are guaranteed to be safe..."

Before he finished speaking, Harry drifted in mid-air and hit a piece of moth-eaten velvet cloth.

"Bastard, the scum of the Black family..."

Mrs. Black's screams began to echo through the house.

"Well... there are occasional hiccups." George said with a stern expression, "But Harry is definitely fine."

"Okay." Sirius rubbed his forehead, acquiescing to their behavior.

In fact, he also wanted Harry to divert his attention as soon as possible.

Now it seems that although Fred and George's method is a bit unreliable, it does work in a sense. Let them go.

Afterwards, he took Kyle to the basement.

"I received your letter last night." Sirius said as he walked. "You asked me to help you find a collection of books involving soul magic. I didn't have time to find it before. Snape came at the wrong time."

"It doesn't matter, as long as you agree to let me borrow the Black family's private library." Kyle said.

"Of course it's no problem, you can use it as you like, even if you move all those books, it's no problem." Sirius said without hesitation, "It's just that why are you looking for magic involving the soul? Of course, I don't mean anything else, it's just that most of the magic It’s all black magic, it’s better for you to have less exposure to it.”

"It's nothing." Kyle said, "I just want to try to make a Horcrux."
