With a lie.

Before Lockhart could continue to speak, the students next to him began to shout.

"Come on, come on!" the Weasley twins shouted to the professors in unison. "A showdown! The gold star on top of the Christmas tree is ours!"

"Dream!" Dumbledore happily rushed onto the stage, shaking his gray beard.

Looking at the other professors' cheeks flushed from drinking too much, Lockhart finally gave up the idea of ​​keeping the Headmaster's majesty—the old bee's majesty wasn't a pretense anyway.

"People need to indulge once in a while... It's Christmas anyway." He soothed Percy beside him.

Gryffindor's prefect, the appointed next student president, Percy Weasley's mouth could not close.

So, while Snape was staring at the messiah trio and wiping their ass, Dumbledore and a bunch of professors were robbing the students who were staying at school, if Snape knew about it , the tight string in his mind would probably snap on the spot.

"Daphne... I mean, Miss Greengrass, why are you here?"

Draco Malfoy looked at the person who appeared in front of him in surprise, he forgot what to say for a while, and after a while, he remembered that he should say hello.

Daphne... It should be Hermione, and she went on according to the pre-planned remarks.

"I want to go out for a walk... The bottom of the lake is too stuffy, you know, that kind of depression...cough..."

Hermione coughed a few times on purpose according to the person's posture in her impression.

Malfoy hurriedly called his two "followers":

"Don't hurry up and help... Very well, you two have made some progress today, but you can actually

Offer to help. "

Malfoy was extremely satisfied to see Crabbe and Goyle take the initiative to help Hermione.

Chapter 80 The three protagonists who meet opponents

With Hermione following along this time, Harry and Ron certainly won't make mistakes like "halfway through and suddenly remember not knowing where the Slytherin common room is".

If even Hermione would make such a small mistake, Snape would probably cancel his invisibility immediately, let the three of them go back and forth from where they came from, and avoid being embarrassed in front of him.

Malfoy led the trio to the door of the common room, shouted the password by himself, then assumed a gentleman's posture and welcomed Hermione in, with an attitude that the trio had never seen before.

"...Miss Greengrass, do you want me to take you back to your room?"

\"No, no need." Hermione declined.

In order to avoid revealing flaws, Hermione set the basic strategy of "talking less, listening more, and asking more questions" from the beginning, and also asked Harry to keep in mind that Crabbe and Goyle have never how to speak.

Hermione walked to Slytherin's girls' dormitory, and winked at Harry and Ron, telling them to do their thing.

Malfoy let out a long breath as Hermione disappeared down the aisle.

"How did you meet Miss Greengrass? I thought you would stay in the hall to grab candy."

\"Grab candy?" \"Gall" asked naively.

"Lockhart held an entertainment duel for candy, and the old bees and those little lions were playing silly!" Malfoy looked disdainful.

Hearing that even Dumbledore was involved, both Harry and Ron looked sad and this expression was quickly noticed by Malfoy.

But they didn't reveal it, because it fits Crabbe and Goyle's character very well

, Malfoy also thought that it was just his two servants who were greedy again.

"Please! What's there to miss! It's just a little candy. If you want to eat it, we can buy better ones at Honey Duke. It's not that I haven't given it to you."

"Ah, yes." The two responded quickly.

"By the way, how did you meet Miss Greenglass? I thought she had gone back." Malfoy was a little puzzled.

Harry and Ron acted even more bewildered than Malfoy, on the principle of "more wrong than wrong".

"I don't know... we don't seem to be feeling well when we see her..." Harry replied slowly.

Fortunately, Malfoy didn't expect to get an answer from them at all: "Well, maybe it's just a whim of the eldest lady, whatever..."

Of course, if Malfoy knew that Daphne was his future aunt, maybe he would show more respect, but now... I'm afraid he can only treat this Greengrass based on the same consciousness as a 28 pure blood. The eldest lady of the house showed proper etiquette.

"By the way, I'm going to show you something fun, you wait!" Malfoy suddenly remembered something.

He quickly returned to his bedroom, then took out a newspaper: "Look at this!"

Harry and Ron leaned over to take a look and saw that Arthur Wesley had been reviewed by the Ministry of Magic and fined 50 Galleons for secretly modifying a magic car.

Lucius Malfoy took advantage of the topic, while pressuring the Ministry of Magic and the Wesley family to demand Arthur Weasley's resignation, while calling for changes to the law, especially the Muggle Protection Act.

Seeing Malfoy's appearance as if the talk show actor had just shaken his baggage, Harry knew by his own emotional intelligence that he should laugh at this moment, so he secretly kicked Ron

— feet, and then forced himself to smile dryly.

After being reminded, Ron could only hold back his anger in order not to expose himself, and forced himself to laugh twice.

Malfoy was satisfied - because that was the effect he wanted.

"They deserve it, who asked him to lead a team to raid our house last week... It's no wonder he can find something, our family hides the family secret room under the living room, and they walk around on the carpet stupidly: I don't know what to look at below.

This time his family has suffered a big loss... Even if he can't force him to resign, he must find a way to force them to hand over that magic. ' said Malfoy triumphantly.

"That magic?" Ron asked sensitively.

Malfoy gave him a dissatisfied look: "You forgot, Vincent? How many times have I said it, now our biggest task is to find out the Weasleys' revitalization magic... Forget it, I hope you have a long memory it is my mistake."

Harry was a little surprised—Malfoy was also coveting the magical wealth of the Ron family, just like Soros went to inquire about the trade secrets of a New York homeless man.

He looked at Ron and saw that Ron was even more surprised than he was.

But Malfoy ignored them, and said to himself: "Giving dead things life-like qualities - that magic is a waste of money in the hands of the Weasleys."

Ron seemed to have remembered something: "You mean the bat spirit spell that turns nose hairs into living bats? And the simulation changes that give the magic car the intellect..."

"Thank goodness you finally remembered." Malfoy spread his hands sarcastically. "It seems your brain is a bit more complicated than the troll's after all." I'm just wondering, why would a prank spell need to be We are so concerned. "

"The trick? That's why the Malfoys are getting bigger and bigger and your father must

The reason why you have to come to my house every now and then to beg, Crabbe - you guys are as stupid as the Weasleys, sitting on a mountain without knowing it. "Malfoy wasn't being polite to his valet at all.

Ron's fists suddenly hardened, but thinking that he was scolding Crabbe, he held back his anger and pressed it down again.

Malfoy didn't notice, but still looked smug: "If I have it, the kowtow machine on my oil well can choose the depth by itself, pump out the oil, pour the water back, and the conveyor belt can transport the **** out and keep it. It can save at least 40% of operating costs by removing oil residues without workers to maintain them.”

Crabbe "suddenly realized"—an expression rarely seen on his face.

In order to avoid revealing the contents, Harry hurriedly answered the question.

I saw "Gall" solemnly admonishing Malfoy: "This must not be known to the Weasley family."

Malfoy chuckled: "I haven't gotten to the point where I need you to remind me... Ah, where did we just say? Oh, yes... After this incident, my dad will put pressure on the Ministry of Magic to ask Wei Sly handed over the spell that gave Auto Wisdom, and his family was a shame for a pure-blood wizard who didn't deserve such good magic.

\"Crabbe" and "Gall" looked at each other, and instantly understood the meaning of the other party, and they wrote the letter when they went back!

"...and the savior Potter, who, like the Weasleys, is a person who has absolutely no self-awareness of pure-blood wizards and knows nothing about the glory of wizards. Our family and the Potters have fought politically for nearly four years. A hundred years, but it has come to an end in our generation... Invincible is really lonely."

This time it was Harry's turn to be surprised.

Chapter 81 I Can't Keep Your Mouth

To be honest, Harry Potter doesn't know much about his father, grandfather and family until now.

Apart from the mountains of gold coins in his vault, Harry had not learned anything about his family from the Yuren Yuke channel.

But what he was sure of was that his father must be rich—because his mother was Muggle-born, and he didn't get much dowry from her parents, as his aunt Petunia knew.

He never imagined that the first time he heard about his family was from Malfoy, not from Hagrid, Dumbledore or the Weasleys.

"Potter? I thought he was the one who opened the Chamber of Secrets."

Harry suppressed his desire to ask a question, and continued to act according to Hermione's original plan.

"He?" Malfoy made a disdainful voice. "Impossible. Only the descendants of Slytherin can open the Chamber of Secrets. There is no doubt about it. Did you forget what we discussed that day?"

"What?" Harry felt his heart pounding.

"On the day Lockhart said he found clues to the Chamber of Secrets, we discussed it," Malfoy looked impatient, "the other academies don't know, can we still know that the Gaunt family is the descendant of Slytherin? Plus the 18th century remodeled plumbing... I bet you haven't heard a thing."

Is the Gaunt family responsible for the renovation of the Hogwarts pipeline a descendant of Slytherin? Harry was a little surprised.

"Is the Potter family related to the Gaunt family?" Harry finally asked

A \"off-topic" not in Hermione's plan

It's been bothering him for a long time - because of his Parseltongue.

\"It doesn't matter at all." Malfoy said decisively, "At least back to 1" 400 years ago, it doesn't matter at all, how could we Snake faction and Lion faction intermarry, no matter who opened the secret room, it will never be Possibly the three. "

Harry heard a few new words, but there were certain things that couldn't be asked so directly.

"Hey... I don't even know you. I really want to know who opened the secret room. We can help him." "Gall" sighed.

This is what Hermione taught him, and Hermione promised that as long as the foreshadowing is done, with Malfoy's desire to show, he will definitely be unable to hold back after hearing this.

Sure enough, Malfoy immediately said everything he needed to say, like a bamboo tube pouring beans.

"Who said no? Dad obviously knows something. He told me from the beginning of the semester to follow the rules, saying that there will definitely be something big in school this semester, let me behave normally, and don't raise suspicion... He clearly knows everything. , but won't tell me..."

Harry and Ron's eyes suddenly lit up - as expected! This backroom attack is related to Malfoy!

Seeing the two of them looking "thirsty for knowledge", Malfoy showed off with satisfaction: "You know, when the secret room was opened last time, a mudblood died here. This time it was reopened, I guess how One more to die, I hope it's Granger...I don't know who opened it, but Dad said the last one will surprise and delight us. Even Dumbledore won't be able to hold it down by then News, don't let it spread..."

He stopped abruptly when he saw a man suddenly appear in the common room.

Severus Snape stood there at some point, and from the look on his face

Look, he doesn't seem to be in a good mood.

"Crabbe, Goyle! You guys go out to eat first, I want to talk to Mr. Malfoy." Snape said with a gloomy face, "You have to pay attention to the time...and remember, don't drag your feet on the water. Shoes are walking in the common room, it's wet enough here."

It was only then that Harry and Ron realized that after they came out of Myrtle's bathroom, the hem of their shoes and robes were soaked with water, and more importantly, it was almost time for the potion.

Oops, Hermione! This is the unanimous thought of the two.

While they were thinking about it, Hermione came from the girls' lounge.

Pansy Parkinson was next to her. Judging from the way they were talking and laughing, they seemed to get along pretty well.

After seeing Snape in the common room, Hermione looked a little surprised: "Oh, Professor Snape...my potions class notes seem to be in the library..."

Before she could make up her excuse, Snape waved lazily at her: "Crabbe, Goyle, you accompany Miss Greengrass to get her Potions class notes.

The two were overjoyed: "Yes, sir!"

Harry remembered that it was the first time he called out "Sir" to Snape with an emotion full of joy.

After the three of Harry went out, Snape slowly turned to Malfoy on the opposite side, with a playful expression on his face:

"At first I thought that some people got the wrong direction, like a clown jumping around, but until now I found out that the clown is actually me... Draco, I didn't know you were such a big mouth, like Talk nonsense about your father."

Malfoy looked a little bewildered by Snape's sudden accusation, and the expression on his face

Love, how innocent, how innocent.

\"I don't understand what you mean, sir," he said slowly.

Snape said in his heart that if I hadn't watched a good show from beginning to end just now, I might have been deceived by you, but now...

He really didn't expect that the Savior's plan so flawed would still allow them to get the information they wanted in the end. "A great man must have an equal opponent." The sentence can also be explained in this way - the one who can fight against three idiots must be three more stupid.

It's a pity that there are some things he can't say to Malfoy.

"I'm going to have a good talk with Lucius about your tutoring, Draco."

After coming out of the Slytherin common room, the three saviours quickly ran to the bathroom and celebrated their "discovery" with high fives

Hermione couldn't wait to talk about her harvest first:

"Parkinson was very alert at first and thought I was here to grab a man from her, hum, grab a man... After I promised to play ball for her, she was simply overjoyed, and I told her a lot.

do you know? The Malfoys have been in contact with the rest of the Hogwarts directors since the beginning of the semester, preparing to use the "big event" to remove Dumbledore! Several pure-blood families have written joint letters, preparing to report to Magic in the name of their parents. The ministry petitioned them to change the principal!"

"Beginning of term?" Ron grabbed that key word.

At this time, "Crabbe"'s brown hair has begun to slowly turn red, a fat face has gradually become tapered, and the freckles on his face have begun to appear.

"Yes, they knew from the beginning that there was going to be an attack on the school!"

The weak breath of Miss Greenglass gradually disappeared, replaced by

It is Hermione's unique dominance.
