"Who the hell are you?"
Sirius said in a daze.
"Your savior."
Michael answered seriously.
"I must admit this," Sirius shook his head, "but I still don't understand..."
Michael interrupted:
"What don't you understand? It's easy to understand. I save you, and then you give me money, and everyone is happy!"
"So you are bounty hunters... no no no, people like mercenaries?" Sirius' eyes lit up and said, "Then can you help catch Peter Pettigrew? I can pay you a lot of money.
Galleons!”
Hearing the name Peter Pettigrew, Michael turned back and looked at John deeply before continuing:
"Of course - you can! But the premise is that you have to pay us the cost of rescuing you before you can negotiate the next business deal with us."
"How much do you want?"
Sirius looked very excited. He struggled to sit up from the ground, but the severe injuries of multiple fractures all over his body made it impossible for him to complete this action. "I have a lot of money. Really, I can definitely afford it!"
Michael just looked at Sirius with a smile, and then said after a long time:
"all."
"What did you say?"
"I said... I want all your property, including the Black family's thousand-year accumulation."
After Michael finished speaking, the atmosphere in the abandoned cabin suddenly stagnated.
Lu Ping was relieved at this time.
The other party came for the Black family's property.
This does make sense.
Although this news is not good for them, it at least proves that Sirius and the dark wizard are indeed not colluding.
Sirius burst out laughing when he heard this.
"Yes...I can give you all the wealth, including the ancestral home of the Black family." Sirius said without hesitation, "But I must see the body of Peter Pettigrew.
fair!"
Michael shook his head and said:
"You have no choice."
"Of course I do," Sirius continued, "I don't care about property, Galleons, I don't even care about my own life. I just want the traitor Peter Pettigrew to die!
Without that rat's body, even if you kill me, I won't let you get what you want!"
Michael pursed his lips, then chuckled and raised his wand.
"Then you go die."
As he spoke, an ominous green light emerged from the tip of Michael's staff.
Seeing this, Sirius, Lupin, and even John were stunned.
Because this time, the person Michael pointed his wand at was not Sirius, but Lupin.
"Wait! What are you doing!?"
Sirius struggled and shouted.
"Don't you care about nothing but Peter Pettigrew?" Michael said calmly, "What's your reaction now?"
Sirius didn't answer, but Michael continued:
"As I said, you have no right to choose. I can actually use the [Imperius Curse] to make you spit out all the wealth of the Black family, but that would be more troublesome in the actual operation stage. After all, I am targeting
We are not the only ones with that money.
But if you really don't want to cooperate, I can only use this method.
Moreover, before that, this werewolf, your only good brother now, will also die!"
While Michael was talking, Sirius and Lupine were looking at each other.
Lupine kept shaking his head slightly, meaning to tell Sirius to leave him alone.
Just as Sirius would rather sacrifice his life to kill Pettigrew to avenge the Potters, he is also willing.
But Sirius had a different idea than Lupine.
You can tell if you think about it carefully.
Why did Sirius transfer his identity as Secret Keeper back then?
Because he already knew at that time that there was a traitor among them who had been leaking information to Voldemort.
Then why did he transfer the identity of Secret Keeper to Pettigrew?
Because he looked at everyone as a traitor at that time, and he couldn't trust even Dumbledore.
Lupine, as the last member to join the quartet, also has the identity of a werewolf, so he is obviously his primary suspect.
Facts have proved that he was wrong, very wrong.
This also made him feel a strong sense of guilt towards Lupine.
This feeling of guilt made him unable to give up Lupine's life.
"I promised!"
Sirius' eyes widened and he murmured, "I'll give you everything, don't kill Remus."
"Blake..."
Lupine groaned in pain.
Michael smiled and stretched out his hand:
"Happy cooperation! Then, in order to ensure that you are completely voluntary and will not regret it, come and sign the 'unbreakable oath'!"
Sirius shook Michael's hand.
John, who was waiting on the side, also stretched out his wand.
"You swear, Sirius Black, that you will give all the property belonging to the Black family to the two people standing in front of you now."
"I swear!"
"You swear, Sirius Black, to keep it a secret and not to tell anyone what happened today."
"I swear!"
…
Gold-like chains and thorn-like lines were spreading on Sirius and Michael's arms, and gradually wrapped around their bodies.
"...As a price, we will set you free. Then, the oath...is established!"
As John finished speaking, those golden lines disappeared into the two people's bodies.
Sirius fell weakly to the ground.
Michael, on the other hand, waved his hand and said coldly:
"Okay, the task is completed, you can get out."
Lupine gasped:
"You can't do that, we are still injured..."
"Recover quickly!"
Michael waved his wand, treated Sirius and Lupin's injuries, and then threw out two bottles of Bone Spirit.
"Just think of it as a gift, let's go!"
Sirius and Lupine looked at each other, both a little confused, but in the end they helped each other and left the hut.
After confirming that they were gone, Michael lit another flue:
"With that oath, I can take out the wealth of the Black family in Gringotts. Of course, the goblins will not let this go too smoothly, but I have my own way. By then the Black family will be in ancient times.
I only need 30% of the Lingge's wealth, and I will give you the remaining 70%."
John sat on the sofa and said:
"Why are you so generous all of a sudden?"
"This is not generous, but fair. I want the ancestral home of the Black family, No. 12 Grimmauld Place."
"Tsk—that's fair enough, let's make the deal."
