Chapter 204: Worthless death

It's been a long time since I saw Sirius last time, and now he looks at least neat and tidy compared to the downcast at that time.
He was wearing a tough striped suit, and his hair had not been cut, but he could see that it had been trimmed.
But he still looked so thin.
"Chicken!" He said hoarsely as he just tossed the shabby Daily Prophet on the ground in a cave.
Harry hesitated, and suddenly thought of something. He opened the schoolbag and passed the pack of chicken legs and bread.
"Thank you!"
Sirius said a word, eagerly opened the parcel, grabbed a chicken leg, sat on the ground with one buttock, and tore off a large piece of chicken.
The three Harry looked at him strangely, because there was an inexplicable sense of disorder in him.
"What's wrong?" Sirius looked up at them, then looked down at his clothes, and then suddenly said, "Well ... this is the last Christmas gift that McLean gave me."
He chewed the chicken thighs in his mouth and continued vaguely: "He had prepared me some golden gallons, but I didn't want to ... but obviously, there is a price to maintain self-esteem-you may know , Rat meat is really not very chewy, they always run around! "
He looked up at Harry and smiled brightly, but Harry just smiled reluctantly.
"Don't learn this from me, Harry ... I also know that I have a bad temper, but I'm afraid I can't change it in this life."
It seems that he did not forget to fulfill his godfather duties even when he laughed at himself.
"What are you doing recently, Sirius?" Harry couldn't help asking.
"Let's talk later, McLean will come over today," said Sirius, and he continued to bow his head to poke his chicken legs and bread.
As soon as Blake's voice fell, Harry and Hermione looked dumb, they looked at each other, and then subconsciously looked away.
If they weren't, they would definitely call Maca. But now, whenever they see Maca, they feel uncomfortable.
What happened in the maze that day did not tell Ron by accident. One is that they don't know how to say it, after all, they don't know much about themselves; the other is that they don't want to say it, because they have been avoiding that topic as much as possible!
However, Maca did not entangle them for a long time.
After a while, Buckbeak suddenly looked up at the mouth of the cave, and then screamed in excitement.
"Oh, have they all arrived?"
Everyone quickly turned around and saw Maca standing there with ease, and smiled at them.
Hermione looked subconsciously behind Maca—fortunately, Miss Lovegood didn't seem to follow her, at least it made her feel less annoyed.
Hermione was scared now, and she was worried when she couldn't help it, she couldn't help but drag Maca aloud and asked him "why."
As for what "why"? She didn't know it herself.
"What are you staring at me for?" Maca walked to the deepest part of the cave, reached out and touched Buckbeak's neck, and pulled out a fresh ferret from his waist.
While feeding Snack to Buckbeak, he said casually: "Sirius, I said I hired you to help me take care of Buckbeak. Would you take Jin Jialong away? As for your stomach ... ... I'm not giving you money for nothing. "
Sirius said vaguely: "No, it should be to take care of it for you. You can save me a life! If I collect your money again, then I might as well give you this life first ... first Say okay, don't look at me being full, I never let your eagle and horse get hungry! "
"That way, I'll show you a clear way today ..." Maca turned around and smiled, "ferrets for food are much better than mice, and the farms are trying to make them fat and fat. It ’s big, and they generally do n’t let them have too much exercise. From now on, I ’ll give Buckbeak food expenses. How about you eat ferrets with it?

When Black heard it, somehow he was really agitated.
"How can Sirius and Buckbeak eat the same thing-" Ron said in surprise.
"Shut up, Ron!" Hermione interrupted immediately. "What do you know! Ferrets are more expensive than chicken leg bread ..."
"Just a joke," Maca waved her hand. "It's time to talk ... Sirius, I discussed it with Dumbledore, and decided to suspend the plan temporarily."
"Why did it suddenly stop again?" Sirius swallowed the chicken thigh in his mouth and asked with a grin, "Isn't the plan going well?"
Maca put a smile on her face and slowly shook her head: "The specific situation is far from my expectation. If we continue, there may be very big changes. Details have not yet been determined. So I won't say it first, but at least one thing is certain-"
He paused and said solemnly: "It is very likely that Voldemort is no longer our greatest enemy."
Maca's words were like a biting cold wind, and they were scraped in the cave, making everyone silent.
Voldemort is no longer the worst enemy, so how terrible is the real enemy?
For a long time, Ma Kana's calm and calm attitude, and omnipotent performance, have long been trusted by a few people present.
If others say that, I'm afraid everyone will disagree, even the experienced Sirius Black will sneer at it.
But now, when these words were spoken from Maca's mouth, everyone had to think more carefully.
"Maca, you mean ... the one who couldn't even mention his name ... is back?" Ron asked afterwards.
"The Dark Mark has appeared twice, what do you say!" Hermione glanced at him, speechless.
Seeing everyone's gloomy face, Maca once again showed the relaxed expression before, smiling with a smile: "Although it's right to be careful, don't worry too much, but don't forget, also Dumbledore is here! "
Rather than trying to figure it out, moving Dumbledore out would make it easier for these people. For now, though, Dumbledore had left him with the problem.
"... Maybe Dumbledore intends to train me as his successor!" Maca thought glumly.
"Then ... did you come here this time to inform me of the plan to end it?" Sirius raised his chicken leg again, and he continued to ask as he ate, "Also, you have something else to think about Leave it to me? "
Maca shook her head: "There are still some things, but this time it won't be that complicated. I'll see two more people in a while. Before that, you will--"
Having said that, he took a subconscious look at Harry and the three of them, and then the words turned sharply.
"Harry, Hermione, and Ron, I can't tell you something for the time being ... If you can trust me, can you avoid it first?" He said sincerely, "I don't want to deceive you for other reasons ... … Maybe I would do it without hesitation before, but now I just want to be honest and believe you can understand me. "
"Um-of course, since you said so." Harry nodded immediately, then went out first.
Hermione hesitated, and then pulled out Ron, who was reluctant, silently.
"What's so mysterious, even Harry can't know?" Sirius curiously said, "But if I say, you might as well lie to them! At least your level of deception is much higher than ordinary people ..."
"Hi-it's nothing, it's just not suitable for them to see." Maca took out her wand and waved it, and a stretcher carrying people appeared next to him.
"Is this ... Batty Crouch, Jr?" Sirius looked at the man on the stretcher, surprised, "Isn't he dead in Azkaban?"
"Dead is dead, but that's the latest thing." Maca waved her wand again, and the stretcher carried Barty Crouch's body to the cave, and cast a phantom spell to cover him again. Up.
"This was originally part of the original plan. I wanted to use his death to test Voldemort. Now that the plan has ended, then he will be useless for a while ... Help me return him to his father! Maca said complexly, "Although Batty is dead, she is ..."
He shook his head and continued: "His father is likely to be trapped in his house. By the way, save his father! You tell him that everything is not over yet, and things cannot be exposed too soon- That's what Dumbledore said, and he should do it. "
"... is it yours?" Sirius couldn't help asking.
"Even if it's not ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Isn't the whole plan me operating?" Maca sighed. "Stop asking such questions, it doesn't make sense."
"You look like you've killed many people ..." Sirius said helplessly, "It's easy to ignore your age with you ... seriously, this is your first time ... Right? "
He carefully compared the movement of wiping his neck, and he could see that he was still a little worried about Maca's mental condition. After all, no one really cares about doing such a thing.
However, Maca just waved her hand, and didn't seem to want to continue this topic.
There was a little silence in the cave for a while, but Maca finally opened the mouth and broke the slightly dull atmosphere.
"In short, help me go to Crouch's house. I'm not very suitable to go in person ..." He hesitated, "You know."
"Hmm ..." Sirius said indifferently, "Poor Crouch ... For me, I can only blame him ... Can you tell me how Barty died?"
