Chapter 562 The Brave Cat
"Oh my God! What are you doing?!"
Hermione was stunned for a while, then she ran over with an exclaim and pulled Fish away from Mundungus's hands.
"He took Kreacher's stuff, meow!"
(ˇˇ)
Fish said with a straight face.
"this……"
Hermione glanced at the cloth bag that was thrown aside, then recalled Sirius and Mrs. Weasley's comments about Mundungus, and instantly understood what was going on.
"Sirius doesn't care about the rubbish...he was going to throw it away, I'm just using it..."
Mundungus was still defending. In fact, what he said was not entirely a lie.
Sirius had actually always known about Mundungus' behavior of stealing items from Black's house and selling them, but he didn't care much about these things.
Although he was dissatisfied with Mundungus' behavior, Sirius didn't bother to argue with him, and usually turned a blind eye to the matter.
But after some cleaning a while ago, most of the valuable items that were piled up randomly were collected by Kreacher. Mundungus had almost sold all the valuable items placed outside. After that, he finally couldn't help but take action on the items collected by Kreacher...
Then he was caught red-handed by Kreacher.
Faced with the questioning of a mere house elf, Mundungus, an old man, certainly didn't care. After being caught, instead of running away, he mocked Kreacher with confidence...
Then Feishu, who happened to arrive, pressed him there.
"How dare you say that! How dare you say that!"
Hearing Mundungus's quibble, Kreacher screamed angrily, then continued to swing the pan in his hand, hitting him all over the face.
"I was wrong! I was wrong!" Mundungus protected his head and face and begged for mercy loudly: "I will never do this again!"
"If Fish finds out that you are taking Kreacher's things again, Fish will beat you up too!"
(`ω)
Maomao stopped Kreacher, who was about to continue beating Mundungus, and waved his fist in warning.
"I know! I know... there won't be a next time..."
Mundungus nodded and hunched over and stepped back. After carefully retreating a certain distance, seeing that Fish and Kreacher ignored him, he immediately turned around and ran away in embarrassment. After a while, he disappeared from Fish and the others. in sight.
"Thank you so much! Master Fish! You are as kind as Master Regulus!"
Seeing Mundungus being driven away, Kreacher hugged Fish's thigh and thanked him sharply: "That shameless thief always wants to steal the Black family's property from old Kreacher... Look at that prodigal son of a young master. They brought some people back... of course, except Master Feishu and your mother!"
As usual, he began to take the opportunity to curse Sirius and the members of the Order of the Phoenix.
"And Hermione."
(ΦωΦ)
Fei Xu pointed to his girlfriend beside him and added.
However, Kreacher pretended not to hear, but he stopped cursing, turned and ran to the bag, poured out the contents, and wiped it carefully.
"That damn thief ruined everything in the Black family! This is the mistress's favorite dressing box..."
The elf was chattering while wiping the items in the bag.
In addition to the exquisite dressing box, Kreacher also took out a silver snake-shaped candlestick and a gold medal from the cloth bag.
There is nothing special about the silver candlesticks. There are at least ten or twenty in this house... although I don't seem to see them much recently... and Kreacher obviously doesn't pay much attention to the candlestick and throws it aside casually. Just wipe the dressing box and the medal carefully.
As for that golden medal, Hermione had also seen pictures in books. It represented the Order of Merlin, one of the highest honors of the Ministry of Magic. Judging from the green ribbon on the medal, it was still a first-class medal.
After Kreacher wiped them all and put them back in the cupboard where he usually lived, Fish explained to him the purpose of his visit.
"Kreacher, do you know where the collection of books collected by the Black family is? He...uh...Fish wants to see the stories on it."
(ω)
The old house elf glanced at Hermione aside and mumbled something in a vague voice. Even Fish couldn't hear what he said clearly, and it was even less possible for Hermione to hear clearly.
But Hermione keenly guessed the content of that sentence-Mudblood, a pejorative name for Muggle-borns from pure-blood wizards.
But Hermione was not angry, instead she showed a friendly smile to Kreacher.
Of course, her kindness was not responded to by Kreacher, and the elf turned his head directly, not bothering to look at Hermione again.
"I'm sorry, Master Fish." He bowed deeply to Maomao, with his big nose pressed to the ground, "The Black family's book collection has been taken away by Miss Bella a long time ago."
"Who is Miss Bella? Where did she take the book?"
ω
Feishu asked curiously.
"Miss Bella is Master Regulus's cousin. She is married to Mr. Rodolphus of the Lestrange family. Although the Lestrange family is also one of the twenty-eight holy families, she is not the same as the Black family. Compared with the family, it is still inferior, Miss Bella is really wronged!"
Kreacher rambled on about Miss Bella.
"Oh...this name is impressive, meow!" Maomao suddenly realized that he had mentioned these two people on the night when Voldemort was resurrected, "They are both Death Eaters, right? Voldemort said that they were imprisoned in A Zika is gone."
"My poor Miss Bella!" Kreacher suddenly cried, "That damn Rodolphus! He didn't protect Miss Bella!"
"But..." Fish blinked and touched the back of his head and asked doubtfully: "Didn't Sirius say that Regulus was killed by Voldemort? Why do you still like that Death Eater?" Miss Bella?"
(ω)
"Gah..."
Kreacher, who was crying loudly, suddenly froze, his big eyes still filled with tears filled with confusion.
Obviously, Kreacher has never thought about this problem, and compared to Sirius, he knows better how Regulus died, and he also knows that his favorite Master Regulus actually wanted to die in his last moments. To resist Voldemort.
But the Black family's longstanding obsession with pure blood and their admiration for Voldemort made Kreacher subconsciously ignore this issue...
So when faced with Fish's question, Kreacher's stiff head couldn't find the answer for a moment and could only stay there in a daze.
However, Fish didn't expect to get any answers from Kreacher. He just asked casually. Maomao was more concerned about the whereabouts of those books.
"What are you freaking out about, Kreacher? Where are those books that you haven't told Fish yet?"
(ω)
Maomao pushed Kreacher, who was still in a daze, and asked again.
"Miss Bella... said that she wanted to sacrifice it to the Dark Devil's... head."
Kreacher came back to his senses and replied with mixed emotions, and consciously changed his name to Voldemort, while for Bellatrix, after hesitating for a moment, he kept the original name.
"Then there's no other way, meow..."
Fish shook his head regretfully and looked at Hermione aside.
Hermione smiled back at Cat, and then mouthed "It's okay" silently.
Maomao thought for a moment, took out a small box with three locks on it, and handed it to Kreacher along with the key.
"Put your things in here so they won't be stolen easily, nya."
The box Moody gave to Fish had the same principle as the box he was locked in... that was Moody's box.
"You are so kind, Master Fish!" Kreacher cried with tears in his eyes, and then leaned down to kiss Cat's shoes.
However, Fischer was not used to this, so he casually said something to Kreacher, then pulled Hermione and ran away.

In the original work, Mundungus only plundered things from the Black family and resold them after Sirius died. Slytherin's locket was also stolen by him at that time, but before that, he was usually sure He had committed petty theft, otherwise Kreacher wouldn't have kept calling him a thief.
I have the impression that there are descriptions of relevant content in the original work, but I'm not sure if I remember correctly... Although I just read Order of the Phoenix again a few days ago... But my brain...
I will definitely get Parkinson's disease when I get older.
