"Ask Professor Dumbledore." Catherine shrunk her head under the covers, "I can't hold it, you guys get out of here." ”

Harry and Draco rushed out of Catherine's bedroom without hesitation, and when they turned back at the door, they saw that the vigilance on Catherine's face began to slowly disappear, the two looked at each other, sighed helplessly, and told Dobby to watch the door, and went to the living room, chatting while waiting for the elders to come home.

But because there were so many things that had happened in the past two days, the spirits of the two teenagers could not stand up, and they fell asleep in the living room while waiting, and when the adults came back, they sent them directly back to their respective bedrooms, and had no intention of waking them up at all.

So it wasn't until the kids woke up the next day that the adults didn't know what was happening while they weren't there.

The matter of the locket came to an end after Regulus was buried in the ground, and as for why his cousin turned into a corpse, no one told Andomeda why, and the Lady of Tonks did not ask much, because she was born in Slytherin and knew how to avoid putting her family in danger.

And Ted didn't have a good impression of the Black family, so naturally he wouldn't talk much; Although Tonks was curious, since her parents didn't speak, she naturally didn't dare to ask, not to mention how she was even more worried about how to explain to her parents why her family name became "Black".

It is not an easy task for a wizard to change his name, because the name he was given at birth has a strong magical power, and some sacrificial or séance magic must use his real name to succeed, Tom. Riddle changed his name to Voldemort, but he only changed the order of letters, and he didn't dare to give up his real name at will.

But that doesn't mean the wizard's real name will stay the same. When joining another family or accidentally inheriting a lineage, such as Catherine and Tonks, the surname "Black" is automatically added directly after the real name. Therefore, the more adventures a wizard has, the longer his name will be.

Therefore, in order to facilitate the title, most people will take the initiative to shorten it to only the religious name and family name, such as Albus. Dumbledore, at the same time, can confuse those who try to hurt you with your real name, which is why even the Muggle world has a legend about not telling strangers your real name.

So when he learned that his daughter had joined the Black family, Ted wasn't particularly angry. He was a Muggle-born wizard with no roots in the wizarding world, and his desire to grow the Tonks family was extinguished after giving birth to a daughter. Now his daughter has a seemingly huge backing, which is also a good thing, after all, the reason why he has no good feelings for his wife's maternal family is only because they expelled his wife from the family.

Compared with. Andomida, on the other hand, was much more worried. After all, the Black family is too large, and although there are four people left, there is a cool Bellatrix among them. The temperament of her own sister, as a younger sister, is very clear, once she knows that Tonks has joined the Black family, she will definitely hunt her down to the end.

As for counting on Azkaban to keep Bellatrix to death, Andomeda couldn't even think of it, and examples of reality were dangling in front of him. According to the contemptuous attitude of the Ministry of Magic, it will not be guarded against. And according to the tenacity of the Animagus......

Andomeda didn't dare to think about it anymore, fearing that they would eventually become a reality.

So after begging Walburga to expel Tonks from the Black family to no avail, Andomeda had no choice but to confiscate her daughter's pocket watch and forbid her to take it out.

In any case, the fact that Tonks joined the Black family still left the Tonks and his wife scrambling, after all, when Andomeda decided to keep the matter a secret for the time being, it meant that some things needed to be dealt with immediately, such as the Ministry of Magic's household registration files, etc.

So the Tonks hurriedly finished breakfast and left with their daughter.

As soon as the Tonks family left, Harry couldn't resist asking Sirius and Lupin about the prophecy.

Trelawney's prophecy back then, Lupin had heard about it, but Sirius knew it very clearly, after all, he was James's most trusted person, and Jaime naturally consulted him, and he had also told him that the prophecy was overheard by the Death Eaters, so Sirius could not discuss this matter with Harry in front of Lucius.

The closer Draco and Catherine get to Harry, the lower Voldemort's trust in the Malfoy family will be, and he has no other way to go except to be a spy, and what he hopes most now is that the Dark Lord never returns, but obviously this expectation is almost impossible to achieve.

Thinking of this, Lucius couldn't help but look at Catherine.

But Catherine didn't say anything, the prophecy was related to Harry's safety, whether it should be made public, the decision was not up to her, although Voldemort didn't know it mattered, but he had already failed once because of an incomplete prophecy, presumably he wanted to know the full version of the prophecy, which was just used for fishing.

Seeing that Catherine was buried in her head eating and did not say anything, Lucius knew that this prophecy was not something he could know now, so he naturally didn't want to stay any longer to obscure people's eyes, so he lost a look at his wife and children, and got up to say goodbye.

Narcissa ignored the men's affairs, but only pulled Catherine, informed her of some precautions that needed to be known immediately, and agreed on the time of the next meeting and discussion, before turning and walking out of the dining room.

Draco lamented that he couldn't know a secret, but he didn't insist on it, just patted Harry on the shoulder, encouraging him to be stronger, not to collapse if he couldn't bear it, but his tone was unusually serious.

Harry wasn't stupid, and although he still hated Draco's tone, he didn't refuse his kindness, but he just secretly attacked, but he couldn't help but take a few points seriously, and the pain was so painful that the platinum boy could barely keep his expression.

After the two teenagers parted ways, 12 Creman Square became empty again, and Sirius tried to distract Harry by trying to distract him by inviting his friends.

"Alright! I can tell you what you prophesied, but you must swear not to say it. It was only after Harry had solemnly sworn that Sirius uttered the full prophecy.

"How can you be sure that the prophecy is true?" Harry asked, confused, "You know, Trelawney usually looks like crazy. ”

"Because Professor Trelawney looked completely different from his appearance at the time." Catherine extracted the memories of the prophecy and placed it in the meditation basin that Dobby had brought, and the others saw it and understood why those who knew it thought it was true.

"That's why Voldemort came and killed me!" Harry shouted angrily.

"There were two boys who were eligible at the time, and the other was Neville. Longbottom, but Voldemort chose you. Lupin explained.

"I don't understand!" Harry was stunned for a moment before hesitating, "Why didn't he wait for Neville and I to grow up before making a decision?" ”

"Because the eavesdroppers only hear three signatures." Catherine suddenly looked up in the direction of the doorway.

"Who's eavesdropping?" Harry asked through gritted teeth.

"Dumbledore didn't say it, but he clearly knew who it was!" Sirius clenched his fists, as if ready to smash the eavesdropper with a single punch.

Lupin's lips moved, but in the end he didn't say anything.

The prophecy troubled Harry for a few days, but was quickly dispelled by the Christmas spirit, Sirius and Lupin went to great lengths to make up for the past regrets of their two children, especially when Narcissa returned Sirius's vault key to him, and he was even more eager to move the whole Diagon Alley back, but fortunately the thrifty Lupin stopped him, but when it came to choosing gifts, he still let him have a luxury.

On Christmas morning, Catherine rarely didn't get up early in the morning, the main reason was that the piece of soul fragment that had just been put into her body recently was extremely stubborn, and she had been waiting for an opportunity to fight back, as if Tom. All of Riddle's calmness was left on this Horcrux, and the combination of the vine ball and Catherine alone couldn't clean up the other party for a while, so she couldn't sleep well for the past few days, and today she simply took a lazy break to recuperate.

After closing his eyes and squinting for a moment, he was woken up by Harry's screams, and then he rushed into Catherine's bedroom with a broom, so angry that she wanted to pretend not to wake up and throw him out.

"It's a fire bolt! Catherine, look! Sirius' Christmas gift to me. Harry threw himself down on the side of the bed and handed the beautiful gleaming broom to the red-haired girl.

"Use a broom for international competitions to play inter-academy matches." Catherine said incredulously, "Sirius has so much money that there's nowhere to burn?" ”

"Sirius wants you to get the best Christmas gift in the world." Lupin said with a smile as he stood in the doorway.

Harry's eyes couldn't help but moisten.

"Sirius is really too extravagant." Harry sighed and happily asked, "Where is he?" ”

"He's a little embarrassed to go to the living room." Seeing that Harry immediately rushed out, Lupin deliberately added.

Catherine got up and blinked, hesitantly asking Lupin, "Were you okay last night?" ”

"Severus' medicine is still very effective, and with Sirius by my side, I don't have to worry about losing control all the time." Lupin picked up the broom that had not yet been unpacked by the door and walked to the bed, and asked with a smile, "Don't you like fire crossbow arrows?" ”

"You don't know I'm out of the Quidditch team in Slytherin, do you?" Catherine asked rhetorically.

"But you still have a chance to play, don't you?" Lupin smiled as he handed her the firebolts.

"Are you cursing Slytherin last in line?" Catherine grabbed the broomstick handle, feeling the urge to hit Lupin the head.

"Forgive me for being a Gryffindor, you're the only one in Slytherin who needs a heart's attention for the time being." Lupin smiled and handed a small package to Catherine, "Trust me this Christmas gift will please you." (To be continued......)
