章 65: Gaunt’s Old House
It turned out that the Weasley family won the Daily Prophet's annual grand prize, the Golden Galleons Award, and they were going to Egypt to spend the summer vacation. The Weasley family's eldest son, Bill Weasley, happened to be in ancient Egypt. Lingge serves as the curse breaker - they invite Ciaran to travel together.
Ciaran helped solve the Chamber of Secrets incident and rescued Ginny. The Weasleys were very grateful to him and had wanted to repay him for a long time. So this time after they won the Golden Galleons, they hoped that Ciaran would go to Egypt with them. When traveling, there are a lot of abnormal magic items in that place.
Ciaran had other plans for his summer vacation, and of course, it was impossible for him to agree to the invitation from the Weasley family, so he could only say in a rather regretful tone that he had other important things to do and couldn't get away, and finally rejected Weasley with regret. Invitation from Mr. and Mrs. Sly.
"This news has not yet been published in the Daily Prophet, but it should be published in the newspaper tomorrow. By then, when Sirius sees Peter Pettigrew's Animagus transformation, it will arouse the deepest obsession in his heart. Escaped from Azkaban prison and started his career as a wanted criminal."
Ciaran was thoughtful. He knew that Sirius was innocent. He also knew Sirius when he was a child and had a foundation of friendship. Furthermore, Sirius was not the kind of brutal wizard who killed wantonly - although he was indeed reckless - perhaps in many things. Can we unite with Sirius?
For example, Kreacher, the house elf in Black's old house, Ciaran remembered that the elf had a Horcrux of Voldemort's - Slytherin's Locket!
He was absolutely certain that Slytherin's locket definitely contained a lot of Force points!
When he thought about this, he thought of Sirius's younger brother, Regulus Black.
"Regulus, the brave wizard!" Ciaran exclaimed. According to his understanding, perhaps Regulus Black was the first wizard in the wizarding world to see through Voldemort's Horcrux. He betrayed Voldemort in his heart, stole Slytherin's locket, and handed it to the house elf Kreacher, hoping that he would destroy the Horcrux, but he himself died when Voldemort hid the Horcrux. Inside the dark cave.
Until today, more than ten years later, no one knows the cause of Regulus' death or the deeds he fought for with his life. They all thought that he was just unwilling to follow Voldemort, and was eaten by Voldemort or someone. The Dead Apostles were killed, and even Voldemort himself did not realize that his Horcrux had been stolen by Regulus.
A brave, resourceful, determined, and extremely fearless Slytherin!
"The hero's corpse sank at the bottom of the dark lake, never seeing the light of day all year round, and the corpses of many innocent people became Voldemort's evil weapons..."
"well!"
Ciaran sighed. Voldemort was indeed cruel in his methods. It was absolutely correct to say that he was the Dark Lord. He killed countless innocent people just to make a Horcrux. It was really outrageous.
However, only Voldemort and Kreacher know where Voldemort hid the Horcrux Slytherin's Locket. Without the help of Sirius, the last male heir of the Black family - who can force Kreacher to order - he cannot find it. place.
Ciaran had forgotten the source of information that Dumbledore knew about that place, but with Kreacher, an elf who had been there once, there was no need to spend more time on other aspects.
Breaking Voldemort's protective spell and burying all the innocent bodies was a trivial thing that he, an insider, could do.
But this matter is still very early. After all, Sirius has not yet successfully escaped from prison, so all the following things are naturally out of the question. His current goal is still to focus on Gaunt's old house.
Ciaran wrote a reply to the Weasley family and checked the defenses at his home. Although he left, his clothes, money, and other things must still be left at home, and he would not take Edsna with him.
The next day, Ciaran left the village where Fremont Manor is located. He had never been to Little Hangleton, where Gunter's old house was located. He simply took Muggle transportation and rushed to the nearest Little Hangleton first. city, he then took a bus to Little Hangleton.
Ciaran got off the car outside Little Hangleton. He saw the car driving away on the flat road. At the end of his sight was a village, located between two steep hillsides. The church and cemetery were clearly visible. On the hillside across the valley, there is a very grand mansion, surrounded by large green lawns, but it now looks dilapidated for many years.
"Finally, we're here." Ciaran breathed out, tidied up his clothes, hid the wand in his inner pocket, walked slowly along the downhill road, and looked left and right along the road. Although he remembered that Gunter's old house was located in the small Hangleton, he didn't know exactly where in Little Hangleton it was. In short, it couldn't be inside the village. After all, the Gaunt family was extremely proud, how could they allow themselves to live too close to Muggles? near?
So he paid attention to whether there were any abandoned and dilapidated houses on both sides of the road, which might be Gunter's old house.
"Well, according to the temperament of the Gaunt family and the time of its demise, the more abandoned and rugged the road, the more likely it is that it will lead to the old Gaunt house."
Sure enough, he found a very bumpy path, and it was very narrow. The hedges on both sides were much denser than the ones on the road just now. This dirt road was also full of rocks, making it very inconvenient to walk.
The dirt road went straight down, seeming to lead to the dark woods below. Although the sky was clear and cloudless, and the weather was extremely hot in summer, when entering the woods, Ciaran suddenly felt chilly, and the thick trees cast a shadow in the forest. The dark and dense shadows, if it were a Muggle, they might not dare to come here alone during the day, and would need to go together.
Fortunately, Ciaran is a wizard, and his magic level is not low. He also knows the inside story of this place. Even if some black magic creature does appear, he believes that he can still solve it with his own magic wand. At worst, there will be no problem in escaping.
After a few more seconds, he saw a house half hidden among the tangled trees.
"The Gunter family has such a strange taste in choosing residential addresses!" Ciaran shook his head. He would definitely not choose to build a house in dense woods. It would be like a haunted house, especially late at night.
It was indeed a big house, but it had been abandoned for many years. The walls were covered with moss, and almost all the tiles on the roof had fallen off. Parts of
the house had collapsed in every corner, but the whole thing was still standing. The beams The crossbar should be intact.
The house was surrounded by dense nettles. The tall nettles reached up to the windows. The windows were very small and covered with dust. The glass was all broken, and there were a few birds flying around. , seems to have built a nest inside the house.
When Ciaran came closer, he found a vaguely identifiable sign on the damaged front door of the house, a snake bone nailed to the door!
