"Lippi gave me a surprise."
John opened a bottle of soda.
Ariana, who was sitting on the sofa watching TV, immediately moved her eyes over. .
She looked directly at John, who looked at the soda and then at his sister.
"No, you've already drank three bottles."
John rejected his sister.
Ariana pursed her lips in displeasure.
Ever since he discovered that Ariana liked to drink this, Watson almost moved the nearby shopping mall to his home.
This also resulted in Ariana drinking non-stop.
Later, the first family meeting was held at the Wicker house over soda dosage.
The overwhelming vote of two against to six in favor would limit Ariana's daily soda intake.
And the other opposed Watson was also reduced to three bottles.
What?
Where does the Wick family come from?
John said that owls and dogs also have the right to vote.
For this reason, Qiqi was resented by Ariana.
I won’t even forgive you for showing kindness!
John was still thinking about what Old Barty told him.
I didn't expect that kid Lippi to cause such a big thing.
Forget it, he took out the ring and searched the body and the Polish Ministry of Magic.
"Barty Sr. now has to wait until the election to expose this conspiracy."
John raised his eyebrows and said thoughtfully: "It seems too easy."
It all went too smoothly.
John's intuition told him that there was something fishy here.
"Let old Batty be more careful."
He put down the soda, opened the passage and walked in.
As soon as he left, Ariana's bear slinked around the refrigerator.
It climbed up and kicked hard on the edge of the refrigerator, causing the refrigerator door to open.
Ariana said slyly: "It was the bear who drove it, it's none of Ariana's business."
She looked at the refrigerator and saw that all the sodas inside were marked with numbers. If she drank a bottle secretly, she would be caught.
Ariana frowned and closed the door depressedly.
Just as he was about to go back and continue watching TV, he saw his old father coming back.
He was like a biological father and daughter, Watson came in secretly.
Tiptoeing on tiptoes, she opened her mouth and mouthed and asked, "Ariana, where are my mother and brother?"
Ariana said: "Mom went to the beauty salon and my brother went out."
"I can rest assured that."
Watson breathed a sigh of relief. The incubator he was holding looked like a box used to transport medicines in some laboratories.
He came to Ariana mysteriously and looked around as if he were a thief.
Under Ariana's curious gaze, he solemnly opened the box.
A cold air flowed out from inside, which was filled with ice cubes and soda.
Ariana's eyes sparkled.
"Soda party." Watson said proudly, "There are all kinds of flavors!"
"No one will restrain us today!"
Ariana cast an adoring look, which made Watson's vanity soar.
He waved his hand and said he would have a good drink today.
Anyway, no one else is at home, so father and daughter can be unscrupulous.
It's just that they forgot.
In addition to people, there are also small animals at home.
Two owls and a dog were silently looking at Watson's ugly face.
...
Silverhand Manor.
Riddle flew to and stopped in front of John, and John touched its head.
He wrote a letter to Old Batty, reminding him to be cautious.
"Let the Star Disciple go with him."
John added some insurance, the Star Disciples were hiding here and there the whole time.
with them
, will also be more reassuring.
"Don't let anyone kidnap you along the way."
John touched Riddle and asked him to deliver the letter.
After doing everything, he set his sights on the people who came to Silver Hand Manor.
"Have you decided?"
He was on the second floor looking down at Theodore.
"I have decided," Theodore said respectfully, "the corrupt Nott has died. I will follow you and become the new Nott."
John was not surprised by his choice.
From the beginning of Theodore's journey to Azkaban, every move was under his surveillance.
And Theodore also took action for his decision.
He chose to let his father end his eternal imprisonment.
A death is not only the end of the old Nott, but also the tolerance given by the king.
"In this election, Old Batty will go, and you will be by his side."
John said calmly: "You need to be familiar with all this. What you need to face in the future will not be playing house at Hogwarts."
"I understand." Theodore nodded.
"From now on, you are a Star Disciple," John walked slowly down. "You can learn a lot from those people."
"How to use the killing curse, how to torture, how to sneak in, how to escape."
He stopped in front of Theodore and looked at his former friend. John said: "You will struggle in the mud, and you will either sink into the mud and drown, or you will break out and transform."
"You cannot support the new Nott now."
"Blood and fire can make you a qualified leader."
John raised his hand and put it on Theodore's shoulder, and said calmly: "Remember that sentence?"
"For eternal glory."
Theodore looked up, his eyes were filled with enthusiasm.
Yes, for eternal glory.
At the year-end dinner in the first grade, the young and immature Wang was surrounded by Slytherins. He raised his cup and shouted those words.
And glory became a trap that Slytherin could not overcome.
They chase power and glory.
Theodore, he was also one of the believers.
Just like Lord Voldemort, John's followers have covered the entire wizarding world.
For the sake of glory, it is to restart Nott's glory.
Theodore would give his life.
"The election is about to begin."
John looked at the beautifully planted garden outside the door.
The gardener is taking good care of the plants.
Little Barty began to become less indifferent.
Maybe it's because Batty Sr. has always patiently shown off his loving fatherliness, or maybe it's because he wants to understand that Batty Sr. doesn't need the gimmick of a heroic father.
Little Barty tried to get in touch with some fatherly love from Old Barty.
What he once longed for, Barty Jr. said, he still hated.
But he called 'Father.
The former rebellion may be revenge for his father's neglect, but the changed old Barty shows softness.
John walked up to little Barty and glanced at the skillful operation of one of his hands.
"You're used to it."
Little Barty paused and said, "Sometimes it's still a little inconvenient."
John shook his head and said, "Your father, you are starting to get used to his presence."
Little Barty didn't know what to say, he was just there clearing weeds.
"Find an opportunity to have a heart-to-heart talk with him," John said. "He will be very happy, even happier than he would be if he became the president of the International Confederation of Wizards."
John's response was still silence.
John didn't say much, just left.
Little Barty put down his shovel, glanced at the sky, and murmured to himself, "The weather is really nice."
When he was at Crouch's house, he had no chance to see such a sky.
That was the sky he could see on the Quidditch pitch.
...
The election begins.
The location is at the origin of magic.
Green mountains stand in the distance, and the top of the mountain almost touches the sky.
Huge steps lead to the sky above, with the majestic castle visible at the top.
A figure stepped onto this place, and he looked up to where the clouds and mist were.
That was the place where the first Dark Lord failed.
And now I set foot here again.
Inge reached out and touched the masonry eroded by time.
...
