Chapter 921 [Chapter 5] 7
But Snape seemed to be inspired by the words he blurted out, and he went straight on.
"...At the end of the day, it's you who gets the benefit every time. Does it matter what damage someone else gets? You become Lily, inheriting her brains and great talents, and being hurt by someone else. The image you trusted! Later, Lily became an Auror and got a teaching position easily by virtue of Lily's reputation; now, there is that stupid dog who is so stupid that he can't tell the difference between you, a fake, and the real Lily, I want to drag you into this pool of muddy water happily, thinking that giving you a house would be a great deed—"
Dumbledore's gentle voice suddenly rose, neither high nor low, just right to interrupt Snape before the accusation got out of hand.
"That's not a very good thing, Severus," said Dumbledore calmly. "The situation is fraught with complications. We don't know if the ancient spells attached to the house will work after the house no longer belongs to Sirius - if such spells are still in place, the ownership of the house will likely pass to Sirius' oldest relative is his cousin, Bellatrix Lestrange."
Hearing the name, Snape's eyes darkened.A sense of extreme disgust rose from him.
"You see, none of us would like to see that happen," said Dumbledore, unusually mildly. "So now is not the time for disputes—letting Lily temporarily control the ownership of the house through some means is better than letting Bellatrix suddenly appear in front of the house at some point."
He pushed open the huge plate of sweets on the huge desk next to him, mixed with milk fudge, pear candies, licorice wands, sizzling bees, and so on, and took out his own. An Elder Wand.
"Fortunately," he said, "we can do a simple test."
He waved his wand.With a loud "crack", a house-elf appeared.He has a pig nose, huge ears like bat wings, and a pair of big bloodshot eyes. There are a lot of white hair growing out of those two big ears; On the carpet in Watts' headmaster's room, just across from that desk, between where Snape and Willow were standing.
"Kreacher," said Dumbledore.
"No Kreacher, no Kreacher, no Kreacher!" the house-elf yelled hoarsely, almost matching Peeves screaming when he wanted to scare people, stamping his feet and pulling at his ears.
"Kreacher belongs to Miss Bellatrix, oh yes, Kreacher belongs to the Black family, Kreacher wants his new mistress, Kreacher doesn't want a lowly dirty Mudblood as mistress, Kreacher doesn't want, Don't, don't—"
Liu Quan: "..."
Snape took a breath in disgust.He stared sullenly at the screaming house-elf.
Because Willow didn't say something right away to order Kreacher to show it his authority as the new owner of 12 Grimmauld Place, Dumbledore had to raise his voice over Kreacher, "No, no, no. " screamed, reminding her:
"It seems, Lily, that Kreacher is clearly resisting your possession of him."
Liu Quan still didn't speak immediately.She stood there, staring down at the house-elf who was barely rolling over, thinking: Do you know how your beloved Master Regulus died?
The answer to this question, however, is by no means straightforward.
Liu Quan took a deep breath.
"Kreacher," she said, "it's no use if you don't want to. I'm your mistress now, owner of 12 Grimmauld Place."
Kreacher's movements of tearing his ears, stamping his feet, and shaking his head in defiance became more violent in an instant.It hoarsely cried, "Don't, don't, don't, don't—"
Liu Quan laughed angrily.Although she knew it would be naive to quarrel with a house elf, but for her who had never lost a fight, it would be a waste to use up all the eloquence skills!
"It's useless for you to say 'no' countless times. This is the truth." She said to Kreacher in a sneering tone, and by the way, she imitated the tone that Snape used when he just sprayed her - it felt like the lethality doubled in an instant up.
"I am now the mistress of the greatest and noblest Black family in your mind, and your Miss Bellatrix will never touch a finger of No. 12, Grimmauld Place!"
Kreacher howled.
"Damn old loser! Look what he's brought back to the Black mansion! It must smell like gutters and criminals in your hands! Oh, my poor mistress what would she say to old Kreacher if she knew, if she knew what kind of scum they put into her house. Oh, what a shame, poor old Kreacher, what can he do ? That old scum—”
Finally Liu Quan couldn't take it anymore.
When Kreacher called her a "mudblood", she was not so angry, and she even took the time to fight back with a little teasing, to crush the domesticated who had been brainwashed by Mrs. Black's pure blood theory. Elf.But when Kreacher cursed Sirius viciously, Liu Quan suddenly felt that those cursing and insulting words were extremely unbearable in his ears.
Had he been in a place like this for the past year, enduring night and day the curses of those magical portraits on the walls and the torment of a house-elf?The heir and young master of the once-prominent Black family, Prince Gryffindor, how long will it be before his life falls into the abyss of misery and darkness? !
Liu Quan mercilessly shouted: "Kreacher, shut up!"
For a moment, Kreacher looked like he was about to suffocate.He held his throat, his mouth still moving violently, his eyes bulging.Then he took a few wild breaths, then lay down on the carpet, pounding the floor with his hands and feet, panting fiercely but silently.
Liu Quan turned a blind eye to its distorted expression, and continued, "I order you not to speak ill of Sirius Black from now on!"
Hearing her words, Dumbledore raised his eyebrows in surprise.Snape exhaled impatiently from his huge nose.
Kreacher's eyes seemed to bulge even more for a moment.He took hold of his throat, his fingers scratching furiously around his neck, but he couldn't utter a word.
Liu Quan raised the corners of his lips and looked down at it.
"After I get rid of you, I can clean up the nonsense magic portraits in that house." She said happily. "What they did to Sirius, I'm going to do to them—I just happen to know a spell that allows me to swear for seven hours at a stretch. I'm going to try it in that house."
Kreacher pounded the floor hard, as if trying to punch a hole in it.
Liu Quan smiled, suddenly put away that extremely mean tone and attitude, and calmly ordered: "Kreacher, from now on, you go to the Hogwarts kitchen to work with other house-elves. "
After a futile attempt just now, now Kreacher was lying on the ground with his feet in the air. He gave Liu Quan a look of extreme disgust, and then disappeared with another loud noise.
Only at this time did Dumbledore ask: "Lily, do you really know the curse of 'being able to curse for seven hours at a stretch'?"
Liu Quan turned his face and grinned at the respected headmaster of Hogwarts.
"Of course not," she said, "I just did it to annoy him."
……
Except for this embarrassing thing that must be done, in fact, what Liu Quan has to do this summer vacation is no different from usual.
Fighting more and more aggressive Death Eaters, the frequency of battles has increased exponentially, continuing to meet colleagues of the Order of the Phoenix at 12 Grimmauld Place, and continuing to use it as a place similar to the headquarters; received The news of Death Eaters attacking innocent Muggles and wizards immediately left the house in a hurry, and then came back exhausted in the middle of the night, lay down on the bed and didn't want to think about anything, and there were some moments when there was even a moment when there was a "can" Swearing for seven hours in one breath without repeating the curse", so that I can continue to toss for her those magical portraits that are about to move behind the dusty curtains on the wall...
Of course, since Cornelius Fudge stepped down, Scrimgeour, the new Minister of Magic, has come up with a lot of new rules, causing a lot of turmoil; I'm going to scare myself to death.
Of course, Dumbledore seemed busier.Moreover, Liu Quan felt that he was becoming less and less aware of what he was busy with.
She is not an expert who studies the original Harry Potter. Most of her knowledge of Harry Potter's plot comes from the movies, and because she has stayed here for too long, the details in her mind are all gone. Gradually, she was fading away; although she knew that Dumbledore would probably have to fall down from the Astronomy Tower to sacrifice himself in a year's time, she could hardly remember the ins and outs of this incident.
It made her restless.But this is the cruelty of time.No matter how restless she is and does not want to see that cruel and decisive moment coming, time is still passing, and the plot is relentlessly advancing bit by bit; gradually, a little bit closer to the moment that determines the turning point of fate——
And when that moment came, Liu Quan was completely unaware that it was the moment she had been waiting for—and foolishly hoped that it would never come.
She was in her office at the time—how embarrassing it was to admit that she had nowhere to go during the summer—when the flames in the fireplace shot up with a loud, crackling sound.
Liu Quan put down the book in his hand, looked at it in astonishment, and found Dumbledore's face floating in the flames of the fireplace.
"Oh, finally found you, Lily. Can you do something for me?" His old voice was still so calm and kind, but the face emerging from the flames was unusually stern and serious. Almost like a stone statue.
This huge contrast between expression and tone startled Liu Quan.Reflexively, she immediately stood up from her chair, strode to the fireplace, and replied flatly, "Anything, Professor Dumbledore."
