Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 204: The worthless death


It's been a long time since I saw Sirius last time. Compared to his downfall at the time, he now looks at least clean and tidy.

He is wearing a tough striped suit, and his hair has not been cut, but it can be seen that it has indeed been trimmed.

However, he still looks so thin.

"Chicken!" He just threw the dilapidated "Daily Prophet" on the ground of the cave, and said hoarsely.

Harry froze for a moment, and suddenly thought of something. He tore open the schoolbag and passed the package of chicken drumsticks and bread.

"Thank you!"

Sirius said a word, then eagerly opened the package, grabbed a chicken leg, sat on the ground, and violently tore off a large piece of chicken.

The three of Harry looked at him strangely, because there was an inexplicable sense of confusion in him.

"What's the matter?" Sirius raised his head to look at them, then looked down at his clothes, and then suddenly said, "Well...this is the Christmas present McLean gave me last time."

He chewed the chicken thigh in his mouth, and continued vaguely: "He originally prepared some Jin Jialong for me, but I didn't want it... But obviously, to maintain self-esteem, you have to pay a price—you Maybe you know, the mouse meat is really not easy to chew, they always run around!"

He looked up at Harry with a hearty smile, but Harry just smiled reluctantly.

"Don't follow me about this, Harry... I also know that my bad temper is not very good, but I am afraid I can't change it in this life."

It seems that when he even laughed at himself, he did not forget to perform his godfather duties.

"What are you doing recently, Sirius?" Harry couldn't help asking.

"Wait for a while, McLean will come over today." Sirius said, and continued to lower his head to chew on his chicken legs and bread.

As soon as Blake's voice fell, Harry and Hermione darkened. They looked at each other, and then subconsciously moved their gazes away.

In normal times, they would definitely call Maca. But now, as long as they see Maca, they feel very uncomfortable.

They did not tell Ron about what happened in the maze that day. One is that they don't know how to say it, after all, they don't know many things themselves; the other is that they don't want to say, because they have been avoiding that topic as much as possible!

However, Maca did not keep them entangled for long.

After a while, Buckbeak suddenly looked up at the entrance of the cave, and then cried out in excitement.

"Oh, have you all arrived yet?"

Everyone turned their heads quickly and saw Maca standing there with a relaxed face and smiled at them.

Hermione looked behind Maca subconsciously—fortunately, Miss Lovegood didn't seem to be with her, which at least made her feel less upset.

Hermione is very scared now. She is worried that if she can't help it, she will involuntarily drag Maca up to the ground and ask him "why" loudly.

As for what "why"? She didn't know it herself.

"What are you staring at me for?" Maca wandered to the deepest part of the cave, reached out to touch Buckbeak's neck, and took out a fresh ferret from his waist.

While feeding Barkerbeak snacks, he casually said: "Sirius, I said that I hired you to help me take care of Barkerbeak. Can't you just accept Jin Jialong? As for your own stomach. Can't you go...I am not giving you money for nothing."

Sirius vaguely said: "No, it is okay to take care of it for you. You have saved my life! If I take your money again, it would be better to let me return this life to you first. ...... Let me say yes, don’t look at myself always having enough to eat, you, an eagle-horse, I’ve never let it go hungry!"

"That way, I'll show you a clear way today..." Maca turned around and said with a smile, "The ferrets used for feed are much more delicious than mice. The breeding farm wants them to grow They are fat and big, and generally don’t allow them to have too much exercise. From now on, I will reserve food for Buckbeak. How about you eat ferrets with him?"

When Blake heard it, somehow he was really moved.

"How can Sirius and Buckbeak eat the same thing--" Ron said in surprise.

"Shut up, Ron!" Hermione immediately interrupted, "What do you know! Ferrets are much more expensive than chicken thigh bread..."

"Just kidding," Maca waved his hand. "It's time to say business... Sirius, I discussed with Dumbledore and decided to temporarily terminate the plan."

"Why did it stop suddenly?" Sirius swallowed the chicken thigh in his mouth and asked greasyly, "Didn't the plan go smoothly?"

Maca put away his smile, slowly shook his head and said: "The specific situation is very different from my prediction. If we continue, there may be very big changes. The details are not yet available. I'm sure, so I won't say anything, but at least one thing is certain—"

He paused, then said solemnly: "Voldemort is most likely not our worst enemy anymore."

Maka's words were like a biting cold wind, which quietly blew through the cave, making everyone silent.

Voldemort is no longer the worst enemy, so how terrible is the real enemy?

For a long time, Maca’s calm, calm attitude and omnipotent performance have long gained the trust of several people present.

If others say this, everyone would disagree, even the experienced Sirius Black would sneer at it.

But now, when this word comes out of Maca’s mouth, everyone has to think about it in their hearts.

"Maca, you mean... the person who can't even mention the name...has returned?" Ron asked afterwards.

"The Dark Mark has appeared twice, what do you say!" Hermione glared at him, speechless.

Seeing that everyone has a gloomy face, Maca reappeared the relaxed expression before and smiled and said, "Although it’s okay to be careful, don’t worry too much, don’t forget. Now, Dumbledore is here!"

It's not so much that I will think of a way, it is better to move Dumbledore out to make these people feel at ease. Although right now, Dumbledore had already left all the problems to him to ponder.

"... Maybe Dumbledore plans to train me as his successor!" Maca thought depressed.

"Then... did you come here this time to inform me of the planned termination?" Sirius chewed on the chicken drumstick again, and he continued to ask as he ate, "Or, you have something else. Do you want to leave it to me?"

Maca shook his head and said: "There are indeed some things, but this time it's not that complicated. I'm going to meet two people in a while. Before that, you first--"

Speaking of this, he subconsciously looked at Harry and the three of them, then changed the conversation.

"Harry, Hermione, Ron, there are some things that I can't tell you yet...If you can trust me, can you avoid me?" He said sincerely, "I don't want to use other reasons. To deceive you... Maybe I would do it without hesitation before, but now I just want to tell the truth, I believe you can understand me."

"Uh—of course, since you said that." Harry nodded immediately, and walked out first.

Hermione hesitated, then silently pulled Ron out with a reluctant look.

"What is so mysterious that even Harry and the others can't know?" Sirius said curiously, "but if you want me to say, you might as well lie to them! At least your level of deception is much higher than the average person..."

"Hi--it's nothing, it's just not suitable for them to see." Maca drew out his wand and waved it, and a stretcher carrying people appeared beside him.

"This is... Barty Crouch Jr.?" Sirius looked at the man on the stretcher and asked in surprise, "Didn't he die in Azkaban?"

"Death is death, but it's a recent thing." Maca waved his wand again, and the stretcher carried the body of Barty Crouch Jr. floated to the side of the cave, and cast another phantom spell. Covered him up.

"This was originally part of the original plan. I wanted to use his death to test Voldemort. Now that the plan is terminated, he is temporarily useless... You help me return him to him Father!" Maca said with a complex expression, "Although Barty Little is dead, but after all..."

He shook his head and continued: "His father is very likely to be trapped at home by him. You can save his father by the way! You tell him that everything is not over yet, and things should not be exposed too soon. Come out-just say that Dumbledore said it, and he should do it."

"...Is it your hand?" Sirius couldn't help but asked.

"It's almost the same even if it's not~IndoMTL.com~Isn't I working on the whole plan?" Maca sighed, "Stop asking this kind of question, it doesn't make sense."

"You are like this, as if you have killed a lot of people..." Sirius said helplessly, "It's easy to ignore your age when you are with you... Seriously, this is your number one. Time... right?"

He carefully compared his neck wiping motion, and he could see that he was still a little worried about Maca's psychological condition. After all, no one really doesn't care about doing this kind of thing.

However, Maca just waved his hand, as if he didn't want to continue the topic.

There was a little silence in the cave, and finally Maca took the initiative to break the slightly dull atmosphere.

"Anyway, you can help me go to Crouch's house. I'm not suitable to go in person..." He hesitated, "You know."

"Huh..." Sirius said disapprovingly, "Poor Crouch...For me, the blame can only be blamed on himself...Can you tell me how Barty died?"
