"This is it," Sirius led the two of them to the foyer, and stood at a place where two velvet curtains were hung. "It's too late to regret it now." He grabbed the velvet curtain full of insect eyes with one hand, and said.
But Fish and Hermione obviously won't regret it. Sirius sighed and reminded: "Remember to cover your ears." After speaking, he yanked the curtain in his hand and tore it off the wall .
The next moment, Fish and Hermione knew why Sirius reminded them to cover their ears
A terrible, deafening, bloodcurdling scream came from the portrait behind the drapery, and an old lady in a black hat was screaming desperately, as if being tortured.
And as her scream sounded, there seemed to be a chain reaction in the foyer, and the other silent portraits also began to scream. For a while, the whole foyer was like when Fish and the others went to the amusement park to ride the roller coaster. Same.
"Meow!"
?(?¡Ý¡÷¡Ü?)?
Fish let out a mournful cry, quickly retracted his cat ears, and tightly covered the human ears with both hands, and Hermione beside him did the same.
"Bastard! Bitch! Dirty and sinful bastard! Why do you still have the face to appear in front of me!"
The old lady in the portrait screamed and cursed, and waved her skinny hands like chicken feet, as if trying to scratch Sirius' face.
"Shut up! You horrible old hag! Shut up!" Sirius yelled back, not to be outdone, and pulled out his wand, shooting stun spells at the other screaming portraits to silence them again.
The old lady in the portrait turned pale, pointed at Sirius and continued to curse: "Prodigal son! Disgrace to the family! The evil seed I gave birth to!"
"I told you! Shut up!" Sirius yelled at his mother angrily.
The mother and son refused to give in to each other, and the sound was louder than the sound, and they were about to overwhelm each other in volume.
Fish and Hermione could only cover their ears and stare dumbfounded at the quarrel between them.
Just when the two were at a stalemate, an old man who was familiar to Fish appeared in the portrait, he pressed Sirius' mother's shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, Walburga, be quiet, Don't let the guests see the joke."
"Phineas, why are you here meow?"
(?¦µw¦µ?)?
Fish's cat ears popped out of his silver-gray hair again, and he waved excitedly to the new old man in the portrait.
This person is naturally Phineas Nigellus Black, the most unpopular headmaster in the history of Hogwarts, and the only headmaster from Slytherin Fisher's old friend.
"This is my home, of course I can be here." Phineas stroked his goatee and said proudly, then he nodded at Fisher with a smile and said, "Welcome Come to the Blakes, Fish."
As for Hermione next to Fish, he completely ignored him. If he didn't speak harshly to this little girl, it was because he was unwilling to care about Hermione for the sake of Fish and Hogwarts and his own identity. .
"Great-grandfather." Walburga Black stopped screaming immediately after seeing Phineas, and stood behind him respectfully.
"Gaozu" Sirius looked at Phineas and greeted reluctantly.
"Huh!" For this great-great-grandson who betrayed the family tradition, Phineas didn't have a good face. He didn't bother to see Sirius at all, and only cared about chatting with Fish.
"Are you here for Walburga?"
Phineas knew how other people in the room treated his offspring, so it could only be Fisch, a curious little guy.
"Yes, meow," Mao Mao nodded earnestly, and said, "Fisch wants Sirius and his mother to reconcile, meow."
(??v?v??)
"Impossible! I will never forgive the bastard!" Mrs. Black screamed again.
"But Sirius is your child. No matter what Fish did wrong, Minerva will forgive me."
However, Mrs. Black refused to admit the existence of Sirius, she shouted: "My child is only Regulus! My poor child woo woo woo woo"
She recalled her missing young son, who was probably killed, and couldn't help crying bitterly.
"You see,Fish? There is no possibility of detente between us! "
Sirius roared with a bad face.
Although he had long since given up on his family members, hearing that he was denied by his biological mother again still made Sirius feel sad and ashamed.
Then, without waiting for Fish to say anything else, he lifted the velvet curtain full of insect eyes, and covered up his portrait of Mrs. Black again.
Valley women
"I'm tired, I'll go back and rest first."
After drawing the curtain, Sirius waved to Fish and Hermione listlessly, as if he had been drained of strength, and left the hall with heavy steps.
"Hermione, did Fish do something wrong again, meow?"
(??w??)?
Mao Mao seemed to feel the sadness of Sirius, and asked in a low mood.
"It's none of your business," Hermione hugged Fish, and comforted her softly, "You're kind too, aren't you? It's because the conflict of ideas between Sirius and his mother is too intense, and it's not something that can be easily resolved." They understand each other."
"Like Draco and Harry meow?"
Fish recalled the metaphor he had thought of before.
Hermione twitched the corners of her mouth, then nodded: "Well, you can also say that."
Although this metaphor is a bit weird, but seriously, there seems to be nothing wrong with it
"Minerva~"
?¡ñw¡ñ?
When it was time for dinner, Professor McGonagall finally appeared here, and Fish immediately pounced on him. Because of what happened in the afternoon, Mao Mao misses his mother very much now.
Also appearing here are Mr. Weasley, Bill, Percy and Lupine. They were also very happy after seeing Fish, and they all got together and had a lively dinner.
After dinner, Bill got up to leave. Neither he nor Percy lived here. Percy would stay, of course to give Ron tutoring.
Just when Ron was dragged back into the room by Percy with a sad face, Fish also dragged Professor McGonagall to her room.
"Okay, what story do you want to hear today?"
Professor McGonagall and Fish sat side by side by the bed, rubbed his cat ears, and asked with a smile.
"Minerva," Maomao ignored Professor McGonagall's inquiry, but hugged her arm, and talked about what happened today, "Fisch met Sirius' mother today"
After Fish told the story, Professor McGonagall showed emotion on his face.
"I think that Mrs. Black actually still loves Sirius, but the murder of Regulus later hit her too hard, and she probably took her anger on Sirius because of this."
Professor McGonagall actually didn't know exactly what Mrs. Black was thinking, but she still tried her best to give Fish a "beautiful" reason.
"The conflict between their mother and son is not so easy to calm down," Professor McGonagall said something similar to Hermione. She patted Fish on the head and said, "It's like if Fish, if you want to If you want to follow Voldemort, then I won't forgive you easily."
"It's different, meow!" Maomao retorted: "Following Voldemort is doing bad things, but Sirius didn't do bad things!"
?(?`w¡ä?)?
"But in the eyes of Mrs. Black, what Sirius did is similar." Professor McGonagall explained to Fish earnestly, "Although in our opinion, Mrs. Black is the wrong party, but Sirius has no choice Born in my own family, in a pure-blooded family like Black, Sirius' behavior is wrong"
Professor McGonagall talked a lot with Fish that night, including the relationship between mother and child, the conflict of ideas between pure-bloods and half-bloods, and even Muggle wizards, etc.
Although Fish might not be able to fully understand it, he listened carefully and memorized everything very rarely, without any sign of dozing off in the middle.
"Okay, it's getting late, you should go back to sleep, mom still has things to do tomorrow."
The two chatted late into the night, and Professor McGonagall stopped talking after looking at his watch.
"By the way," she suddenly remembered something, "Did you remember to hold a mandrake leaf today?"
