Chapter Twenty-Three: Everyone Looks for Daniel

Early in the morning, 12 Grimmauld Place officially 'opened'.

Although there are many people who apply for jobs, this villa, which is only four stories high, obviously cannot absorb so much surplus labor.

Daniel finally had to show an apologetic expression, and selected six wizards who were said to have rich experience in housework and good character reviews.

Three men and three women, the wizard can do some hard work, and the witch is a little more detailed...... It should be!

Among them is the witch who is both upright and has a flood of maternal love - Molly Weasley.

Although Mrs. Weasley, like her husband, always had some radical prejudice against the Slytherin nobility, she was essentially a witch with a good heart and a sense of justice.

She was optimistic by nature and enthusiastic and cheerful, and when the other wizards were a little embarrassed to face their employer, Daniel Black, she was the first to rush to the front, and said in an imposing and down-to-earth manner, "Mr. Black, what do you want us to do?" Please do not hesitate to ask! ”

Handsome little Mr. Black, who lived up to Mrs. Weasley's trust, did not embarrass anyone at all.

Even before Mrs. Weasley could speak, he let out a cheer of surprise when he caught a glimpse of six wizards standing in the doorway through the window, 'in the midst of final negotiations with Kreacher and Aunt Wolbuga'.

I saw him open the black and rusty door, lift the long obstructive hem of the wizard's robe with one hand, and run out of the gloomy room happily, looking really not 'noble'.

He even shouted, "Merlin, you're here!" ”

His attitude of 'as if he had seen a savior' immediately eliminated everyone's sense of crampedness, and everyone couldn't help but show a friendly smile.

"What can I tell you?"

Daniel replied to Mrs. Weasley with a bright smile, "I don't know anything about housekeeping. ”

"The new master is a foreign fool, he actually let Kreacher go to rest, he didn't let Kreacher work, Kreacher was not tired at all, Kreacher wanted to work...... When does a house-elf need a break? House-elves don't need to rest...... The new owner also intended to put the rebellious Weasley and a pile of mud into the mistress's old house, and old Kreacher ...... "Behind him, a half-man-tall house-elf bent over and muttered in a low, bullfrog-like voice.

His reddened eyes almost burst into tears, and he choked up and said, "The new owner is a fool, and the new owner of the Black family is a fool......"

"Okay, okay, stop nagging." Daniel turned his head and patted Kreacher's bald head helplessly and affectionately, "You're a handful of old elves, just rest and rest!" Or, if you can't stay idle, you'll help everyone in a while. ”

Then he explained to everyone, "I'm sorry, please don't bother with him. I think Kreacher seems to be a bit of an early sign of Alzheimer's disease......"

The wizards were dazed.

"In short, it's just that the brain is broken, and the old fool is confused! Besides, my aunt seems to have instilled in you some notions that he is not very good, so it is better for everyone to leave him alone. Daniel explained with a gruff of nerves.

(Background sound: Kreacher is not an old fool, Kreacher has a good brain...... ）

However, his inappropriate attitude made the wizards who were already puzzled once again relieved, and they showed a smile that didn't care, and they seemed very tolerant.

Then, everyone happily followed Daniel into the old mansion of the 'famous' dark wizard family.

Sometimes it's like this, a lot of things are more and more described, on the contrary, the more inappropriate you are, the more others don't care.

However, after Daniel turned around, he couldn't help but quietly glared at old Kreacher, this stupid house-elf, who had obviously said 'not to make trouble' before, but in the end he still ran out and talked a lot.

Kreacher shook his large, white-haired bat-like ears and bowed in obedience, but returned with an equally indignant look.

"Merlin, this is terrible."

Mrs. Weasley let out an unbearable sigh as she looked at the dirty and messy house.

"Uh...... It's been too long since I've lived there, it's a bit deserted......" Daniel scratched his head in embarrassment, he spread his hands with a helpless expression, "How to do it, you can just discuss it, anyway, I don't understand anything." ”

"So what are you waiting for?" Molly Weasley waved her wand and said energetically, "Don't get in the way here, go have a butterbeer and ride a broomstick around the sky, we'll leave it to you." ”

It's a really lively cleaning scene.

A group of wizards, waving their wands in the room, porcelain and bowls lined up by themselves, tap-dancing, walked into the pool, the water flowed down automatically, forming a small whirlpool, gently rinsing, and then, the rag seemed to come to life, stretched and retracted on the ceiling, and automatically and consciously wiped the dust......

Kreacher stood by the fireplace, staring at the 'outsiders' with those red eyes.

Even though he had collected all the valuable possessions of the Black family yesterday, he was still anxious to keep an eye on these people in case they stole a stitch belonging to the Black family.

Not far away, the portrait of Walburga Blake was hidden in the curtain, and she was sitting in a daze.

This powerful and extreme lady is rarely quiet.

In fact, Daniel persuaded her with only two sentences, the first being 'You want to make Blake better, but you fail, then try my way this time' and the second being 'I'll try to get your son out'.

The stubborn woman immediately closed her screaming mouth and fell silent.

She refused to speak to Daniel, but she didn't object to his orders, just a haughty and cold looker.

Neither she nor Kreacher understood why Daniel had allowed a bunch of mudbloods and blood rebels to enter Black's house.

But for the sake of Blake, for the sake of her son, she is still willing to endure this qiē.

She hid in the veil, pretending not to see or hear.

That's already good.

Daniel doesn't have any special requirements for her, just 'don't make trouble'.

He wasn't going to explain his actions in detail, and he knew that a lot of people were waiting to see his jokes right now.

Wizard families that have been passed down from generation to generation always have all kinds of secrets, and no one will let outsiders into their old mansion lightly.

But Daniel still did it, on the one hand, because the Black family was not actually that important in his heart, and his real roots were in the United States; On the other hand, it is also because he needs to reinvent a new image for this notorious family.

The Blake family, which is dying, no longer needs adjectives such as mystery and danger.

It needs to open its doors to more friends, or allies. The more you hide, the easier it is to be fabricated and slandered, on the contrary, it will be reassuring to put out something that can be seen by everyone.

Most importantly, Daniel is completely sure that the Black family definitely has another heritage.

12 Grimmauld Place, such an ordinary house, compared to Malfoy Manor, compared to the Gryffindor Valley where the Potter family lives, it is simply inferior to an ancient family.

And isn't it strange that it's located in a Muggle neighborhood, flanked on either side by Muggle neighbors they hate?

So, there are definitely secrets.

But Daniel doesn't plan to study it anytime soon.

Others thought he was crazy and stupid, but he was quite happy with his move of 'getting a wizard to help clean up the house'.

'Throwing stones to ask for directions', a preliminary test of the labor situation in the wizarding world (it is gratifying to learn that the surplus labor situation in the wizarding world is really very obvious, many wizards are unemployed as soon as they graduate, and then, in Diagon Alley for half their lives);

At the same time, by the way, he also gave a warning to the house-elf in Blake's house.

Old Kreacher, the house-elf of the Black family for generations, although loyal to the family, he actually has his own opinions, and if he can't be convinced, he will be obedient on the surface, and he will not cooperate behind the scenes.

As his temporary 'home' in the wizarding world, Daniel just wants to pack it up quickly and move in as much as possible.

Since you don't work hard, don't blame me for letting you retire." ’

He's got so much to do, but he doesn't have time to play any game of 'conquering' you with a house-elf, unless it's a beautiful woman......

In short, after thinking about it so much, I still have no patience in the end.

Daniel Black, an Internet addict, can't wait to renovate Black's old home into a modern home.

He planned it, and after the wizards cleaned it up, he asked Mycroft to find a way to hire some knowledgeable Muggles who were not afraid to see magic, and with the help of magic, first installed wifi, and then slowly installed flush toilets, cable TV, refrigerators, air conditioners, washing machines, etc......

However, even after thinking about it so much, the road still has to be taken step by step, and while the wizards are in full swing at work, Daniel is standing on the street, holding his mobile phone in a daze.

God knows what kind of '' mood he felt when he turned on the mobile phone he usually used in the United States and saw more than 300 missed calls.

By the way, Mycrof Holmes also sent a message in a mess: If you have nothing to do, you will reply quickly, and if you have something, you will return quickly.

There's so much going on, it's just too busy.
