Chapter 1231
On television in the Hogwarts Great Hall after Halloween.
"The newspaper's special correspondent Rita Skeeter reported that, as the patriarch of the Malfoy family, one of the twenty-eight pure-blood nobles in England, Lucius Malfoy has always worked hard to maintain the family's reputation and status... such a well-off family A wizard is willing to lurk by the side of the mysterious man for ten years, at will, just to provide the most accurate information about the mysterious man and the Death Eaters to the British Ministry of Magic... A few days ago, in order to save those wizards who were looted by the Death Eaters They, he had to suspend his original lurking mission, and quickly informed the headmaster of Hogwarts, Alan Harris, to successfully rescue the hostages...but his identity was also exposed...Lucius · Malfoy paid a huge price for the peace of our British magic world, and endured humiliation, just to eliminate the Mysterious Man and the Death Eaters... Currently, the Ministry of Magic is applying for a First Class Merlin Medal for Mr. Lucius Malfoy, in recognition of his rescue an act of kindness that has cost so many lives.”
"You all know, don't you?" Draco Malfoy sat down, before he went to pick up his breakfast, he put his hand into the pocket of his robe, took out a folded newspaper, and flaunted triumphantly, "" The Daily Prophet reported on my dad, and the first page was just his photo and biography, and other than that, the entire article...to be continued on the third, sixth, and seventh pages was all about my dad.”
Believe it or not, quite a few little wizards expressed admiration for Lucius Malfoy at this time, and some even left their seats and came here to clink glasses with Draco, regardless of their previous relationship, feeling very excited and happy Glorious Draco touches it.
"Draco, I heard yesterday that your father was hospitalized after being frightened by Granger's dressing-up trial, how is the situation now?" Bryce Zabini approached Draco and asked in a low voice.
"Zabini, how many times do I need to tell you? That's not the case!" Seeing the smiles on the faces of the wizards around him, Malfoy felt that they were laughing at the fact that an adult pure-blood wizard was killed by Muggles. The wizard fainted out of his Halloween costume... that's not a decent thing to do, he snapped, "He didn't get fainted by the Grangers, he just got rid of You-Know-Who and was mentally exhausted... and He's all right now, he's escaped from the mysterious man's poison."
"Zabini! It's been reported in the newspapers that so many lives can be saved from the mysterious man! How much effort is needed!" Many Slytherins who came around agreed with Draco, and refuted Zabi one after another. Ni.
Zabini was a little surprised. He was just joking with his buddies and cared about it, but he didn't expect to be collectively refuted by these unfamiliar wizards. As a pure blood, he already smelled something from the fact that Lucis was a traitor and came back successfully. , He rolled his eyes in disdain: These people are probably just worried that Lucius Malfoy will talk casually in front of Harris and provide their family to the Ministry of Magic.
Draco was already surrounded by Slytherins who wanted to curry favor with him.
Emily turned sideways and approached Pan Xi and asked in a low voice, "Pan Xi, father still has no news?"
"No, he didn't know where he went." Pansy sighed sadly, "Mr. Malfoy didn't know either, and he asked me to inform him when I got in touch with my father... saying that he would intercede for my father ..."
"Do you still need him to intercede?" Emily wrinkled her small nose and snorted disdainfully, "Pansy, if your father contacts you, bring him to me."
Pansy didn't agree, but nodded gratefully. Emily's words in front of Allen are much more useful than her future father-in-law.
The gathering on the Slytherin side also attracted the attention of wizards from other colleges. Seeing that Draco Malfoy began to raise his chin triumphantly again, Ron took out something like a newspaper clipping, and his arm He elbowed Harry next to him.
Harry spread it out, and it was cut from the "Daily Wizard" controlled by the pure-blood family. This newspaper often reported some things about the Ministry of Magic and Harris from a derogatory perspective that seemed fair but demeaning. And turned up old accounts, began to question the authenticity of Lucius' behavior this time, almost clearly pointing out that when the mysterious man first collapsed, Lucius used the Imperius Curse as an excuse to avoid the opponents. He is the punishment for the established fact that he is a Death Eater, starting with summarizing the so-called deeds of the Malfoy family over the years, in order to attack the implausibility of implying that he is a spy of the Ministry of Magic lurking beside the mysterious man , trying to imply him as a mercenary and cunning viper.
"At least he switched to Allen this time and they are right, aren't they?" Harry returned the newspaper clipping to Ron and looked towards the Slytherin table, "but Malfoy will use his It's been a long time since I looked at people through my nostrils."
"Their surnames reveal the virtues of this family." Ron put away the newspaper clippings, squinted at Draco, who was as arrogant as a peacock, and then turned his face to Harry and muttered, "Their ancestors are Came here from France with the Muggle commander. The French name Malfoy seems to be dishonest and unfaithful in his bones. Therefore, in order to avoid danger and betray the mysterious person, Lucius Malfoy swayed from side to side like weeds. Their family tradition…”
"Hopefully they last longer this time..." Harry muttered, swallowing his sandwich whole.
"I said, it will be Penelope's class later, this time we have to take it with your seniors, are you sure you can't eat faster?" Ginny handed a cup of breakfast tea to Harry who was choking, and looked Seeing Ron unhurriedly, he turned his head and teased Lavender who was chatting with his girlfriends in the distance, stretched out his leg and kicked Ron, "Ron, otherwise I'm afraid you are not only famous for diarrhea in public, but also Get a reputation for being late."
"You know it's pumpkin juice! The therapist apologized to me later! Ginny!" Ron growled angrily, then asked left and right to see if anyone had heard, the freckles on his face appeared to be under the cover of flushed cheeks. Less prominent, "You promised me not to say it at school!"
"But you have to admit that it does look alike... Ron... I thought you ate too much pumpkin and ate your stomach." Harry couldn't help making fun of his friend at this time, "I don't know what you regarded as Spiders..."
"It's not that it's a spider, it's a spider's leg..." Ron was unwilling to argue in a low voice, "I guess some therapist is as serious as Hermione... Maybe he will wrong my therapist, you know, he is afraid of others It was only after he found out that he was taking too much seriousness in dressing up that I was stunned and took responsibility, so he framed me for stretching my crotch."
"What? Ron? You said your crotch was frightened by Hermione?"
"Ron, did you pull your crotch again? Huh? Why did I say again? He seems to have pulled it before?"
"I heard Hermione's house scared thirteen people to death this Halloween!"
Ron's low-pitched rebuttal was heard clearly by many Gryffindors. At this time, he blushed and argued in vain that it was just pumpkin juice, which made him even more annoyed. His girlfriend Lavender, who was sitting in the pumpkin juice, obviously didn't hear what he was talking about this time, and apparently misunderstood that Ron pulled it in the yard of Granger's house without her knowing, and she didn't dislike Ron , but started arguing that other people went to Granger's house because they were scared to death, and her boyfriend was just scared to shit, which is already considered brave or something...
