"When did this happen? Why didn't I know about this?"
"Oh, come on, Lucius, do you care?"
"I care.》乐>文》"
"Oh, that's great...Cunning Lucius, then now is the time to prove your loyalty...I heard that you have a son who shamelessly forgot the glory of his ancestors and went to befriend Harry Potter, and we We need Harry Potter now."
"……I see."
"Really? Do you really understand? Can you promise Merlin your loyalty?"
"It's not something you can question."
"If you understand, Lucius, cunning Lucius, why don't you get to work on it now?"
"Even so, this is not something you can order to me."
Lucius finally said coldly.
………………
Sometimes things don't always develop as people expect and imagine. Lucius looked at the fragments of mirrors on the floor. While he was angry, these words flashed through his mind at an inappropriate time.
He looked at his son with his head lowered, and a complex emotion that was very common these days came rushing to him at this moment. His expectations - perhaps now I would say fantasies - turned out to be very realistic. No one knows his son better than him. His Draco is arrogant and has a hard time bowing to others. At the same time, while this son has a noble status, he also has a less bold heart.
He is like all Slytherin children, proud and at the same time obeying every order of their parents. At the same time, they are not so bold, because they were coddled and grew up in a peaceful era, and they developed a temper. He has lost his courage and is aware of current affairs but at the same time unable to make a desperate move. The crazy blood of the Black family does not seem to be revealed in him at all.
Such children probably wouldn't have been able to do this in the past. Lucius thought this every time he saw his son mumbling and complaining at home. This son was born at the most dangerous time. He and his wife cherished their only child so much that while the child complained about the difficulty of studying, he had no idea that many requirements had been relaxed. Lucius would often turn a blind eye. He just raised his little finger and let him go without saying a word. Even Snape rarely said harsh words to his godson (of course, judging by the level of judgment he thought he had).
But when did this child become such a child? When did this happen? lucius questioned himself.
Is it because his life was threatened by a dark wizard last time? Or was it because he was frightened by what happened to his crazy uncle? Or was he infected with the boldness of the Lion Court by Harry Potter, a boy who entered the Eagle Court?
No. Lucius shook his head to himself. Even if a real boy from the Lion House stood in front of him, he probably wouldn't have the courage to throw down like Draco did just now.
This was not a good sign, Lucius noticed this with vigilance. The most important thing a Slytherin should learn is to know the current situation. Courage will bring them endless troubles, because they are often not very bright people. Once things go wrong due to useless courage, they will fall into a very embarrassing or even dangerous situation. .
And now, someone happened to teach his son something he shouldn't have - which made it impossible for Lucius's pre-plan to proceed. There is nothing about a double-sided mirror. No matter how expensive such things are, the Malfoy family can receive ten more expensive mirrors than the broken ones in one night with just one order. But through this broken mirror , Lucius understood Draco's wishes, or attitude.
He was unwilling to help Lucius. Not only was he unwilling, he was even partial to and even defending his friend under such circumstances... How deep a friendship can two eleven-year-olds have? Lucius tortured himself with this question, and after thinking for a moment, none of the answers came up that could explain Draco's behavior.
"I ask again," Lucius said, "Are you determined to refuse what I am offering you?"
Draco's lowered head nodded invisibly, and his shoulders shook. Although the amplitude was very small, this shrinking caught his father's eyes.
Ah, this is how his son should behave. Lucius thought.
"you sure?"
He asked again, "Do you know how much trouble this will get you into if you say no?"
"...it won't cause more trouble than if I did this." Draco clenched his fists tightly, "Father, I can't do this."
Not only couldn't he do it, but he would have to rush back to school immediately to tell Harry not to set foot in St. Mungo's.
Draco couldn't imagine that scene - even if Harry Xavier was a person with special abilities, he could not guarantee his escape from the siege and traps of the Death Eaters, not to mention, Sirius Black was still a hostage in the hands of the Death Eaters.
He usually calls him an idiot, a good guy, and a bad guy. He knows in his heart that he may be smarter than him, but at this critical moment, Draco still prays to Merlin in his heart that Harry is still in school.
"Is this your position?" Lucius said.
"...This is my wish, father." Draco said, "This is not a position."
This is called. Lucius snorted in his heart and hit him on the back with the snake-headed cane.
"In that case," he said, "you have never been here. Now," he pointed to the door, "go back through the fireplace next door. If you can't go back to school directly from the fireplace, go back to Hogsmeade first. Quick, Put your feet up and I'll see you disappear from the fireplace in three minutes."
He used his cane to push the boy out the door and pulled his hood up.
"Then my mother and uncle..."
"Your mother is most worried about you," Lucius said. "Your safe return will reassure her more than anything else. Bellatrix is always your biological aunt," he sneered, "she won't really attack your mother. .”
"But she will threaten you," Draco was anxious to death, "She can kidnap mother to prove that she wants to threaten you!"
Of course the madman came to threaten him. Moreover, he has not seen his wife for nearly twenty hours, and has not even heard a trace of news. Lucius thought so in his heart, but did not show his emotions on his face.
"I don't want you to worry about me yet." Lucius pushed him out and came to an office next door - a therapist's office - floating Floo powder into his hand and urging, "Quickly! "
Draco reluctantly took the Floo powder and sprinkled a handful into the fireplace.
A red flame as tall as a person was lit in the fireplace. Draco habitually wanted to step in, but Lucius blocked it with a snake staff. When he came to his senses, he remembered that this was not an ordinary green floo fire, and he felt nervous. Started to play the drums: "...Father? What's going on?"
"...You crouch deserves to go to hell." Lucius's face turned pale the moment he saw the red flames. He pushed the boy outside without hesitation, "Go down the stairs and go back along the same path. Here Apparition is not allowed, you must run fast!"
Draco: "Wait a minute, father! What happened, what does that flame mean!"
He was quickly pushed out of the door by Lucius, but was forced to retreat the next moment.
A wand pointed at Lucius's forehead and slowly forced Lucius, who looked tense, and Draco in front of him, back into the office.
"Let me tell you, the Malfoy boy," the owner of the wand said in a very soft and soothing tone, while Draco's back was covered with cold sweat, "this means that the entire St. Mungo's fireplace is under the surveillance of the curse... Once someone wants to leave here, I will know it. Do you recognize me? I thought I saw your baptism when you were born." The man said with malice.
Who knows who you are? ! Draco really wanted to yell.
"I appreciate your son's loyalty, Lucius," the man said with his eyes wide open and a surprised smile on his face, as if the lonely master at home suddenly welcomed a distinguished guest. "The master's request is just to let Your son lured the boy here safely... Look, now he is here alone!" He patted the boy's face with his wand, and the thin tip almost penetrated the boy's gray-blue color. In his eyes, the latter trembled because of this and did not dare to move. The next second, the wand was swatted away by Lucius with a cold hand, and a red light was thrown at him. The latter did not panic and flicked the wand in his hand. Zhen then dispelled the red light.
"Barty." Lucius said this person's name through gritted teeth.
"Oh, what," the man made no secret of his hostility towards Lucius, "do you think I will poke the tip of the wand into your son's delicate cheek? Don't worry, Lucius, since he is here, wait until he is done. Whatever needs to be done, he will naturally get the favor of our master...How can I do anything to a child with an important mission?"
The favor of our Master.
Owner? Who is the owner?
It only took Draco one breath to know the answer to this question. This time he was truly trembling. Fear crawled out of his heart bit by bit, gnawing away at all the confidence and reason in his heart like an insect eating a leaf.
"I was having a 'friendly' chat with our Antonis on behalf of Rodolphus." The man said, "Then I found two tiny bugs..." A slightly disgusted expression appeared on his face, "Antonis really has a good nephew. I almost fell into his trap... But don't worry, I have already placed them in another room. I didn't expect your son to come here again... What should I say? , is Hogwarts on holiday, huh?"
The man smiled at Draco - but Draco knew they were screwed.
………………
St. Mungo's was surrounded...or so it seemed.
While some people were leisurely criticizing government officials and Aurors while they were anxiously discussing countermeasures.
"There are no police cars, no snipers, no one to negotiate directly with them... What kind of government is this?"
"No wizard can drive a car - except Sirius - they all like to ride broomsticks, as if they can install bulletproof glass and ignore traffic rules."
"I saw a few people with wands. Do you think they are police?"
"Not a police officer, an Auror."
"All wizards hold wands, Kurt. You have to see if they have a badge on them-"
"But, what if they are ambushing agents? What if they deliberately pretend to be ordinary people? Maybe they are afraid that the prisoners will come out to attack civilians, so they pretend to be civilians to let them relax their vigilance and wait to give them the final blow? "
"...You don't think like you, tell me, did Warren take you to watch a movie again recently?!"
When Harry got the call and went downstairs to look for them, he found them sitting on the bench opposite the coffee shop, huddled together and chatting animatedly. When he opened the door, Scott was wearing and unfolding his coat for them. He looked at the tights underneath and said very proudly that it matched his figure. Then Sean said not to be outdone and said if you can, take it off and show off your abs... Then Harry's eyesight went dark.
"Oh no, no, no," Peter's voice was close at hand, "You are still young, you can't see this kind of thing——"
There was an angry howl from Scott over there. Harry pushed Peter's hand away and found that Warren quietly stretched out his wings and slapped him to the ground.
Wanda stood on the right side of Harry, accepting the gazes of several people. Everyone has heard of the eldest daughter of the Erik family, and her appearance also shows this. But she didn't seem to be the type to greet her kindly, so a few people just didn't talk to each other. Jean nodded in a friendly manner to her, and after Wanda responded to her, she looked at her with a look that could be said to be indifferent. This group of people.
"Oh oh oh, Harry! Now that you are here we can set off, right?"
Sean stood up and jumped a few times, stretching his muscles a few times, "Where do we go in?"
"Um..." Harry lowered his head and typed a few words on the phone with his thumb, "Dad said that Uncle Erik will be coming to lead the team soon, so it's best to wait until he arrives before setting off."
Several people immediately let out a scream, and Harry took the opportunity to count how many people came. Scott, Jean, for sure; Kurt, it's understandable, and Warren has always been with him; Kitty's fighting and ability are both good; Rogue and Bobby are the ones he didn't expect.
"He and John had a fight," Kitty said to Harry in a very strange tone, "and this time it was bigger. Raven wanted them to be quarantined temporarily. John originally clamored to come, but since this is a hospital, Hank Said there may be a lot of medicines, John’s ability is not suitable, and Bobby’s ability is still rampant.”
"So I'm the controller." Rogue showed Harry her right hand without gloves and said very calmly, but Harry could still feel that she was angry.
Bobby's expression was just like his ability, cold and hard. When he saw Harry, he just nodded. In the past, he would hug Harry with a smile and rub his head with everyone, which made Harry feel a little disappointed.
"Hey, let's go, we can't wait for Erik to come," Sean said, "That would be a disaster!"
Harry felt a little strange, just like the girls were even more excited when ghosts appeared in school. This atmosphere is wrong.
"Um, do you realize that there are a group of murderers inside?" He said, "They are a group of... a group of murderers who can kill just because of contempt, disgust and... blood."
"Do you realize that murderers are nothing special?" Kitty winked at him, "Especially to us."
"The man who stole someone from the Pentagon is standing behind you," Sean said in confusion, "Why on earth are you worried?" He poked Harry on the forehead, "School has made you rigid, Harry. Do you think there are criminals who are more terrifying than them -" he pointed at a group of students? If that's the case, then why does Raven want them to harm wizards!"
"Maybe it's because she wants to drive you away," Scott raised his eyebrows, "Your song about picking up girls is too ugly!"
………………
Jean and Scott entered St. Mungo's more familiar than Harry.
"Sirius was sent for rescue last time through this road," Jean and Harry said through ability communication. "They sent the person up directly. I checked and most of the wizards went through another door, or Fireplace, this is a special passage.”
Since Jean is much older than Harry, she serves as the hub for everyone - everyone's thoughts must be under her supervision, which is very inhumane and not free. Boys can't think about jokes, and girls can't cheat, but The wizard's spell is indeed not fun, and Jean needs to bring everyone back safely, especially the younger boys and girls.
Harry was responsible for exploring the surrounding environment - if there was an ambush, then this person's thoughts must not be far away, after all, this is St. Mungo's and not the Pentagon full of surveillance - at the same time he was holding a notebook with great difficulty, He casts spells on some suspicious places, each spell is very tongue-in-cheek, and only five out of ten times is successful.
"I'm going to sign up for a language class when I go back," he said with a headache. "Old English is too difficult to pronounce."
"Then don't say it." Warren said, "What's the use of throwing magic spells at empty spaces and stairs?"
"Wizards may sometimes cast warning magic," Harry said. "When Peter and Wanda came here for the first time...well they didn't trigger anything."
"It's actually much easier than breaking into the Pentagon!" Peter shouted in his head, and at the same time, this sentence was heard by everyone.
The boys all slapped Harry for showing off, and then made Harry's hair look like a bird's nest.
"Why don't we just go up there," Kurt stretched out his arms and muttered in his head, "Look, we can just move up there without having to walk quietly or..."
"We need to check the situation. There are not only murderers here, but also hostages." Scott said, "But what you said makes sense... So," he snapped his fingers and pointed at Harry, "You take Peter, Peter with you. My sister, Bobby, and Rogue are going to find Sirius first. While rescuing the hostages, it’s best to find out where the little wizards are. We’ll investigate layer by layer. If anyone is there, we’ll knock them out and tie them up. If there’s no one else, it’ll be fine. If you have anything, just think of it. , everyone can hear it." After saying that, he threw a handful of dark things over. Harry took a look at it and almost threw the thing back.
"Gun?!" He almost screamed, "Oh my god, where did you get the gun from?"
"Isn't this a special situation?" Scott said nonchalantly. "If someone throws a spell on you, just beat him to pieces with a gun."
And the words 'your aunt gave it' that flashed through Sean's mind already told Harry the origin of the gun.
Harry:…………Okay.
He stretched out his hand and let the twins hold one side of him, while Bobby and Rogue held the other side, and Sean hugged his neck. Then the position was taken by Peter, and he had to stand on Wanda's side rather uncomfortably. The resident bared his teeth.
Wanda: "Why are you afraid of me?"
sean: "What? I, I'm not! How could I be afraid of a little girl! Even if you are a hot girl, I have to tell the truth - I am a generation above you! There is no way I am afraid of you!"
"Because you look like Erik," Peter said unkindly, "He's afraid of Erik, so much..."
Wanda said coldly indifferently, while Sean felt his face burning.
Harry shook his head while activating his ability - it seems that since joining Hogwarts, he has become more and more proficient in using this ability - and then disappeared in front of Scott and the others with a bang and a few people.
"Then we should continue," Scott turned around and put his hands on his hips and said in his head, "Jean, what is the range of your telepathy?"
"About a hundred meters in diameter." Jean said, "If I want to find other people in this building, I need to go up a little bit. There is no one on the first floor."
"Okay, let's go upstairs!" Scott gave the order, and the rest of the people followed him up the stairs.
……………………
Maybe there were too many people with him, maybe he was using too much force, and Harry's accuracy wasn't very good.
Maybe it was because he was worried about Sirius the most. He originally wanted to move directly to the fifth floor, but he used too much force, and he and several people fell straight into, well, in front of Sirius, but his godfather was Startled.
"Merlin!!"
Sirius dropped the half-eaten apple in his hand, widened his eyes, reached out and used a levitating spell, and narrowly caught his godson, "Harry?!"
Of course, since there was no one to catch the others, they fell straight to the ground. Harry immediately used his ability to float them in the air, and then slowly lowered them down. Because there were too many people, he was actually still alive when he did this. It feels quite strenuous.
Sirius reached out his hand and picked up Harry, who was slowly floating down. He was about to say a few greetings when he remembered something and made a serious face.
"Why are you here!" he said, "Merlin, this is not the place you should be!"
"Well..." Harry hesitated, and finally said, "You know, I'm just worried. I won't feel relieved if I don't come here myself."
"What are you worried about?" Sirius said gently, "That girl Wanda gave me this." He took out a brooch from his pocket, with a golden lily base and a huge emerald cut on it. It shows eight perfect sides, with flowing water inside. "I feel much better with it."
Harry grinned.
That jade brooch is a very precious protective item. It is said to be the dowry of Salazar's mother. Wearing it on the body can greatly reduce the damage caused by the curse. The results of personal experiments are that it can reduce the damage to the same extent as a bullet. The pain was reduced to the level of just cutting a finger with a knife.
"Should you worry about yourself first?" Sean said angrily. He had never been very fond of Sirius's father-like attitude, although he himself thought the flying motorcycle was cool. "Come on, tell me, Where are all those murderers? If I don’t blow them all outside in one breath, the police are all outside."
"As much as I want to say that Aurors are great, I have to say that this is not a good idea," Sirius said. Although he was facing his cherished godson, he couldn't help but show a ferocious look on his face, "This will cause casualties. . The old woman Bellatrix and her accomplices contacted some of their old friends and tried to use this remnant army to overthrow the entire wizarding world starting from St. Mungo's." He glanced aside with contempt and coldness. , said, "It seems that there is more than one person accompanying her crazy."
Harry looked in the direction he was looking at. A woman with messy long black curly hair and half of her breasts almost exposed from the collar was tied tightly with ropes. The broken wand was at her feet. She didn't seem to notice it at all, instead she had a dreamy smile on her face.
"She is...yours..." Harry said.
"My cousin." Sirius said expressionlessly.
"Is she the one who kidnapped Draco's mother?"
"Yes." Sirius gave a sarcastic smile, "Cissy used to say that I was prejudiced against Bella... Now she has experienced the pain. Is Cissy okay?"
"She's fine," Harry said, feeling troubled, "but Sirius, have you seen Draco?"
Sirius's expression froze for a moment.
"...Isn't that kid not in school?!" He yelled a little collapsed, "There's no way he came out of hogwarts!"
"He and Neville and Ron ran out," Harry took out the double-sided mirror, "and I couldn't contact him using this. I lost contact with them."
The problem is that the mirror is not a mobile phone. The mobile phone will tell you whether it is out of power or the owner is not answering the phone. The mirror does not respond. Harry has no idea what is happening on the other side.
"Would you try using telepathy?" Although Sean didn't know what the situation was, he still touched his head and suggested.
"Your classmate is here to inquire about your mother," Wanda agreed with the suggestion, "then he will definitely run to this floor."
"Who are they talking about?" Bobby said.
"Harry's classmate, the one from a noble family," Rogue said, "Harry has said this several times, don't you remember?"
"John can remember, but I'm not good at remembering people." After Bobby said this subconsciously, he pursed his lips and said nothing.
Peter rushed in from the door - one glance showed that he was running around as soon as he landed - and shouted in a low voice: "Harry, no need, I have found it - and, hide quickly!!! Someone is coming!" !!!Here comes the guy with the blond hair and the big back with a magic wand!!!”
Everyone:! ! ! ! ! ! !
harry：=口=! ! ! ! !
Still too late! Harry thought, there was no doubt that Draco was the only choice for Peter's mouth with the blond hair.
Draco was arrested, what should I do?
But he had no time to worry and think of solutions for the time being.
In an instant, the ward became chaotic. Harry quickly asked everyone to gather together to prepare for transfer, but Rogue pointed at Bellatrix and said, "What about this person! Her accomplices will come in and find that she has been tied up or disappeared!"
"I'll give him a jinx." Sirius said, "No, a dozen jinxes."
"Why are we running away!" Sean suddenly shouted, "We have more people! We can go up and give him a good beating!!"
harry:…………
The author has something to say: How to treat procrastination! ! ! ! Ask for a way!
I was freezing at night, so I got up in the morning to type...
However, I still ended up writing otz in the evening. It’s really hard for me to deal with this kind of incident... I’d better hurry up and finish writing about the funny summer vacation...
I bought an ipad and downloaded fgo again. I found that the lag was lifeless...and the screen was strangely a little yellowish?
In case everyone forgets, I will put the character list in front this time:
rogue, kitty, phantom cat, bobby, iceman, john, fireman.
Then there is the new character, Barty Crouch Jr. I unexpectedly like this criminal character with a high IQ whose father bailed him out of prison...but he is still a criminal, so please go get your lunch box!
The final scene was a bit confusing. To sum it up, everyone subconsciously wanted to avoid the mobs so as not to attract hatred, but then they found out that they were high-level and could beat them to death...
The brooch is a damage reduction tool~
Everyone should still urge for updates enthusiastically~ Only then will I feel so guilty that I will try to crawl out of bed and games to update...
ps: Elsword’s new priest Ain is so handsome! ! ! ! ! ! Why are you so doting on Elsword? ! ! Why do you pamper Elsword so much when he is obviously a typical person who is gentle on the outside but overly rational and impersonal on the inside? ! ! Why won't you disappear when Elsword remembers you, and why will your battery run out when you are far away from Elsword? ! Don't put the blame on El Power! ! ! ! ! This is the first time I have worked so hard to level up just to watch the plot!
Although there is only one episode of Elsword's animation at the moment, it feels so great... I recommend everyone who doesn't play games to watch it~
