"This is the Hufflepuff Gold Cup?" Hermione looked at the gold cup that Darren had taken out, and like Darren, although she had never seen the Hufflepuff gold cup, she had found the paintings and patterns, so she could see the identity of the cup at a glance. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"If you're looking for the descriptions in those books," Darren leaned back on the couch, "or the mystery man was deceived." ”

"I really can't believe that he can really find the golden cup, and ......" Speaking of this, Hermione suddenly turned her head, "You say, is this a Horcrux?" ”

"I don't know, but we can give it a try," Darren took out the basilisk tooth dagger, thought for a moment, and put it back in his pocket, "Wait for tomorrow." ”

“？”

"Let Penelope come over too, so that if something happens, at least one more person can respond."

"Hmm." Hermione nodded.

The next day, in that basement of the house, Darren, Hermione, and Penelope were all standing next to a hard processing table with the tiny golden cup firmly attached to the clamp.

"Are you ready? I'm going to do it," Darren asked, having already destroyed the Ravenclaw crown and knowing that there was no danger, he asked everyone to be vigilant considering the danger and peculiarity of the Horcruxes.

"Hmm!"

"Hmm!"

At the same time as they made a sound of affirmation, the wands in Nello and Hermione flashed with a magical glow, which was supposed to cast a defensive spell.

Darren clenched the basilisk tooth dagger, looked at the golden cup, and stabbed it hard like last time, and there was another scream, which made him shudder, this is really not a beautiful experience, just come alone.

"It's as simple as that?" Looking at the punctured cup, both Hermione and Penelope looked at it suspiciously, "It's ruined?" ”

"I feel yes, the same as when I stabbed the crown," Darren put away his dagger and sat down in his chair, "of course, we can check with Harry." ”

"Harry? How can he confirm it? ”

"Ask him if he has a headache today, when he crowns, he is like that."

“……”

"What are we going to do next?" After the three of them returned to the upstairs room, Hermione asked, "The Horcruxes of the mysterious man that Professor Dumbledore mentioned are now all that is left of the great snake Nagini. ”

"The mysterious man doesn't seem to react to the destruction of those Horcruxes, but Nagini is active, and it should be around him, so if you want to destroy this Horcrux, you can only try your luck."

"Luck?" Hermione looked at Darren, "You found and destroyed two Horcruxes so quickly because of luck?"

"Not my luck," Darren raised an eyebrow, "It's Harry's, have you forgotten?" When he was hiding Snape's book, it was next to the crown, and there were so many things in the Room of Need, and it was so big, that the odds were negligible, and we had been there the year before, and we hadn't found anything. ”

"But what about the Golden Cup? How do you know it's going to be in Bellatrix's vault? ”

"Oh, when I went to that vault, I saw the Lestrange sign at the door, and the tapestry at 12 Grimmauld Place had the same sign on it."

"Then you're sure the golden cup is inside?"

"Well, not sure, but I happen to have Bellatrix's wand and polyjuice potion on hand, why don't you go in and have a look? This is a very rare opportunity. ”

"For this reason, he did not hesitate to take all the gold in his coffers."

"You have to find some excuse to cover up, if Gringotts finds out that there is a problem and tells the Death Eaters that the mysterious man found out that his Horcrux was destroyed, and with his character, if he makes a few new ones, it will be even more troublesome."

"What if there is no gold cup in it?"

"Then move something else, don't you think this house lacks something historical? By the way, except for the gold cup, take a look at the rest of the things, find a place to put them up, like Blake's house, it looks more substantial. ”

"Use something you take out of someone else's vault......"

"Who can tell how everything passed down, even the Slytherin pendant, which ended up in Hepziba. Smith's hand, and then ran into the hands of the mystery man, turning into another Horcrux. ”

"I guess he can't make new Horcruxes anymore," Hermione said hesitantly, "I read this book last night," she carefully pulled out "Cutting-edge Dark Arts Revealed", "This book details how to make Horcruxes, it's a scary book, it's terrifying, it's full of evil magic, about Horcruxes, this book warns that splitting souls makes your soul very unstable, and that's just making one Horcrux, but the mystery man made six!" ”

In fact, it's seven.

"And what you do with the crown and the golden cup is one of the few infallible ways to destroy Horcruxes," Hermione looked at Darren again, "something so destructive that the Horcrux can no longer be repaired, and the reason why the soul fragments in it survive depends entirely on its container, on his enchanted carrier, otherwise it will not survive, and once it is completely destroyed, the soul fragments locked in it will not be able to survive," she said, "Your basilisk tooth dagger is really too suitable." ”

"Souvenir, who let it almost poison me, besides, you see, my fire spell has no effect, what other weapons can work."

"But, in that case, Professor Lockhart used a spell to destroy the diary while in the Chamber of Secrets, how did he do that?"

“…… According to Professor Dumbledore, the diary was useless, not destroyed. ”

“？”

"Alright, this harvest is really great today, let's celebrate," Darren, "Twinkle, prepare a feast, and have a good meal!" ”

"Yes, Mr. Darren." To be honest, it's not easy to get Twinkle to change her name from "master".

Although Hermione was eager to find Harry to confirm the authenticity of the Horcrux immediately, considering the current situation, Darren suggested that she wait until someone from the Order of the Phoenix contacted her before acting, in fact, if it weren't for that, he would have taken the two to the United States a long time ago.

Because of Dumbledore's death, Hogwarts did not complete all the lessons this year, so they had more free time than in previous years, and as a result, they could only nest in this house now, and it was better to be free at school, but for Darren, it was not difficult to be with two beautiful women all day, and no one would bother him.
