The train slowed down and was about to enter the platform. Other than Allen who used an illusion spell on his wizard robes, the girls took off their wizard robes and changed into ordinary summer clothes. Finally, the train stopped at King's Cross Station's 9? Platform. Allen and the others followed the crowd and got off the train. While the adult wizards took the initiative to greet the new savior, Crookshan suddenly jumped down from Hermione's arms and scurried away. Hermione was surprised and hurriedly chased after Crookshan. Allen and the others also followed closely behind.
Not far away, Harry, who had bid farewell to the Weasley family, was talking to Sirius who had come to pick him up. Blake was talking, and Sirius took Harry's luggage, looking very happy. Crookshan leaped into the arms of Sirius and knocked him back two steps with his fat body. Sirius had already recovered to be quite strong.
"Crookshan!" Sirius shouted excitedly, and then stroked it with both hands.
Hermione and the others finally passed through the bustling crowd and rushed to him.
Seeing this, Hermione stopped in her tracks. After all, Crookshan and Sirius had cultivated a comrade-like friendship. Back then, Crookshan had even helped Sirius fight with Allen.
Sirius kept stroking Crookshan's smooth fur and said with emotion, "This cat is not young anymore." He returned Crookshan to Hermione, and Hermione smiled, "Indeed, it's about sixteen or seventeen years old. If it were an ordinary house cat, it definitely wouldn't be in such good condition. If it were a Muggle cat, its lifespan would be even shorter. My Crookshan can obviously live for a long time …"
Sirius turned to greet Allen, but suddenly found Helena floating behind Luna.
"My Merlin, why is Ms. Gray following you? Why did you bring her out of the Hogwarts? " As a graduate of Gryffindor, Sirius exclaimed exaggeratedly. Then, he lowered his voice and whispered into Allen's ear, "So, the rumor is true?"
Allen did not answer Sirius' reckless question. Instead, he said to Sirius in a relaxed tone, "Sirius, I have a good deal for you."
"What deal?" Sirius asked in confusion, "As long as it doesn't involve anyone else, just tell me what you want from my house. This time, you helped Harry with the Ministry of Magic incident, and I haven't thanked you properly.."
"How's Chesley?" Allen asked Sirius. He still did not know if Dumbledore had told Sirius about him in the past few days. However, since Sirius was not in an accident, Dumbledore, who had been busy dealing with the return of Lord Voldemort with the pureblood family, the Ministry of Magic, and the International Union of Wizards and Wizards, might not have had time to deal with him.
"That dirty old thing? He's staying at home. Do you want him? " When Sirius glanced at Hermione behind Allen, he had a look of understanding. He had heard Harry talk about Hermione and Hermione's attitude towards promoting the liberation of house elves. In Sirius' eyes, Klitscher had undoubtedly become a tool for Allen to please girls. However, thinking of Klitscher's background, Blake still advised earnestly, "Allen, of course I'm willing to give him to you. I've wanted to get rid of him for a long time, but this old guy is too heavily influenced by my mother … He's not suitable for Hermione … I think you understand what I mean. I even suspect that he doesn't even care about ordinary purebloods …"
"Have we found Regulus recently? Actulus? Some clues after Mr. Blake's disappearance. " Knowing that Chesley was still there, Allen felt that the plan that he had come up with on the spur of the moment when he saw Sirius could be carried out, so he directly told Blake the big news.
"My brother, Regulus? Didn't this stupid idiot die a long time ago? " Sirius's gaze sharpened. Although Sirius felt that Regulus was a hopeless bastard, he was his blood relative after all. Compared to getting news of Regulus, whether Klitscher would hurt Hermione, who was born as a Muggle, was not important at all. Allen also had means to make him admit defeat.
"Yes, I'm sorry. Regulus? Mr. Blake is indeed dead, but we have found something about your brother. We should be able to find his body. " Allen said calmly, "What you have to do is to ensure that Chesley is alive and well in your house before we investigate it clearly. You know, I also heard from Harry that you have a … bad relationship with him."
"You can go and take him away now." However, Sirius was suddenly startled and made a request. "Allen? Mr. Harris, I can make a deal with you, but the prerequisite is that we have to make an unbreakable oath. You have to promise that you will never ask Klitscher anything about the Order of the Phoenix, and that you will not use magic to forcefully obtain information in this regard! "
"No problem, but I prefer a fair deal. Wait until I've completed my part, then I'll take him back. But let's use a contract, it's more convenient. There's no need to find a witness." Following Allen's words, a piece of parchment rushed out of Allen's waist pouch and floated in the air. Allen glanced at the surrounding Magi who had gathered around because of the strange phenomenon, and his expression became somewhat pretentious. He threw a raven feather pen that he had taken out to Sirius. After letting his fingers emit flames, he began to write in Latin. This successfully caused the surrounding Magi to cry out in surprise.
Unlike the one signed by William the Conqueror, the parchment did not have those decorative initials and decorative borders. It was just a very simple contract.
"Devil's contract!" As a former collection of the Blake family, Sirius knew the power of a devil's contract.
I don't think you're familiar with it even if you don't know how to use it. I didn't do anything extra. After I give you the information about Regulus, you give me Cech Klitscher. I just hope that you can ensure Cech Klitscher's safety during this period. Of course, he's very old. Even if he died of natural causes, I'll still give you the information if I find out. I just want to ensure that you and your members of the Order of the Phoenix won't hurt him.
"Why would I hurt that damn thing if I'm fine?" Sirius cursed. Allen handed the devil's contract to Sirius. Sirius suspiciously analyzed the contract in his hand and carefully studied it for a long time, afraid that he would fall into the devil's trap.
Allen crossed his arms in front of his chest and looked at him calmly. "If I really wanted to do something to you, would I have to go through so much trouble?"
In the end, his desire for information about his brother Regulus overwhelmed everything else. Sirius waved his pen and signed his name on the devil's contract. After signing, the contract automatically flew back to Allen. Allen looked at Sirius' full name on the contract and nodded with satisfaction. He then added his full name and put it in his waist pouch.
The moment Allen finished signing, the power of the contract allowed Sirius to understand all the terms on the contract. Sirius nodded with satisfaction. As expected, Allen didn't hide anything from him in the contract. He only asked him to take good care of Klitscher and not hurt him no matter what.
Although he really hated this house elf, he didn't want to hurt him at will. Sirius felt wronged for a moment. "I'm not a sadist. I've never mistreated him. It's just that he doesn't take good care of himself. How can a house elf be as sloppy as him?"
After that, it took Allen and the others a long time to walk out of the platform. A wizened old guard stood guard at the partition wall and only allowed two or three people to pass at a time. This way, they wouldn't attract the Muggle's attention when a large group of people burst out of the solid wall at the same time.
"Allen, Helena can't use Phantom Transfiguration. You two can come with me." Hermione suggested. "We have to hurry. Mom and Dad must have been waiting for a long time. They always come early to wait."
"If I'd known, I would've used Barrow to test whether the Gate Between Worlds would cause danger and harm to spirits without a physical body … I'll send a message home first." Allen nodded and a shadow crow appeared in his hand. Allen explained that he had brought Helena back and that they could only return later by car. The shadow crow flapped its wings and flew away, disappearing without a trace before Allen and the others.
