Malfoy Manor.
The Malfoy family was finishing their breakfast beautifully, wiping the corners of their mouths with a napkin. Maintaining the most elegant and perfect makeup at all times is the most basic quality of a nobleman. Not far away from the three of them, the phone bug was leisurely eating strawberries on the dining table. .
"Burp" After eating a whole plate of strawberries, Phone Bug burped and found a comfortable place in the strawberry basket and lay down lazily.
The three people at the table obviously heard it, and Narcissa glanced at the phone bug with slight disgust.
Both Lucius and Narcissa were quite critical of this strange thing brought back by their children.
With its strange big eyes like tentacles, fancy patterns, and sticky liquid all over its body, it was obviously not a precious magical animal.
Keeping such a strange thing at home would bring disgrace to the Malfoy family.
Because Draco brought it back and seemed to value it, Narcissa did not throw it away.
Just treat it like a low-grade pet. When you get tired of playing with it, you don't even have to do it yourself, Draco will throw it away himself.
Narcissa comforted herself like this.
Suddenly, the sleeping phone bug in the basket suddenly straightened up, and its eyes seemed to have lost focus. Just when Narcissa and the others thought it had eaten up its stomach, the phone bug opened its mouth with teeth. He actually uttered human words.
"You have a phone call, Mr. Draco."
"You have a call, Mr. Draco, please answer it as soon as possible."
Lucius:? ! !
Narcissa:! ! !
Both were startled by the phone bug's voice.
Draco walked up to the phone slowly and picked up the receiver very naturally.
"Hello, this is Draco."
When Draco heard Dudley's voice on the other end of the phone, he immediately beamed.
Narcissa's face was full of confusion. Who did Draco seem to be talking to?
Because Lucius had brief contact with the Queen of England and members of the English royal family, he knew more than the average wizard.
Draco's current behavior is very similar to a machine that uses Muggle communication. It's like a phone.
But that thing seems to have a wire connection. Without a wire, it can't communicate, and it's not a bug.
Lucius's impression of the phone was limited to the extent that he knew about it. Out of disdain for Muggle items, he had not used it.
While Lucius was thinking, Draco had ended the call.
Draco hung up the phone with a smile on his face.
"Draco, what is that?" Lucius asked, prompted by Narcissa's eyes.
His eyes were fixed on the basket where the phone bug was staying. After the phone call ended, the phone bug returned to its original lazy state, lying on the basket.
"No father, just an ordinary phone bug."
Draco's tone was very casual, as if he was describing a normal trivial matter.
"Muggle stuff?"
Lucius asked again.
"No, it was made by Brother D. It is similar to ordinary people's phones, but it is not the same thing."
Draco explained again: "This is not for sale and has been encrypted. Currently, you can only contact Brother D and the others."
"Able to talk?"
"Yes."
Lucius nodded and did not continue to ask any more questions.
He knew that even if he pressed again, Draco might not tell him.
"Father, mother, Brother D and the others will come to our manor early the day after tomorrow."
Draco briefly stated what he had just heard on the phone.
"Malfoy will treat them with the highest courtesy."
"The manor is large and there are enough rooms. If you need anything else, just tell Dobby and he will prepare everything for you."
"But I hope you remember that you are the owner of Malfoy Manor."
Lucius didn't even believe it when he said this.
The three years of Hogwarts campus life have made Draco change a lot. To be precise, not only Draco, but Parkinson, Crabbe, Goyle and other Slytherin juniors in this period have also changed a lot.
But without exception, they were all admirers of the man named Dursley.
Vita immediately followed suit.
As far as he knew, there were several Slytherin children who would rather break away from their family than become his followers.
Fortunately, that person's skills were extraordinary. Even though he was only a junior student at Hogwarts, he was able to arrange the work of the Ministry of Magic.
This was difficult for Lucius to do.
He manipulated Minister of Magic Fudge into the palm of his hand and blindly followed his arrangements as if he was under the Imperius Curse.
Fudge's recent attacks on several senior officials of the Ministry of Magic are the best proof of this.
This is very scary
The pure-blood wizard family is well aware of Dudley's various deeds, but they will never point it out, let alone provoke him.
Who knows if there will be another one. That one.
Join if you can't beat them. This is what pure-blood wizards are best at doing. Except for some old diehards who insist on their own identity and are still stubbornly resisting, everyone else is extremely envious of the Carlo family's early and precise investment.
To be honest, I didn't feel it before, but now that I think about it, when I face that man, I have the illusion that I am facing that person.
Especially since I have suffered from the other party
He tried to remove Dumbledore, but failed and was kicked out of the school board.
Compared to Lucius, Narcissa's thoughts were much simpler.
Dursley was good for Draco, Dursley made Draco better, and that was enough.
Draco was already better than his husband in some ways now.
For a mother that's enough.
Early in the morning the day after tomorrow, accompanied by a distortion and popping sound in the surrounding space, Dudley and the other three appeared at the gate of Malfoy Manor on time.
"Apparition"
Narcissa, who had sharp eyes, recognized the spell cast by the three people at a glance.
Although she is not good at fighting, she is still an adult wizard who has passed the Ls (Ordinary Wizard Level Examination) and the Advanced Wizard Level Examination (Advanced Wizard Level Examination) with excellent results, so she naturally recognizes the magic of Apparition.
This is a very advanced spell. In theory, only wizards who are over 17 years old and have passed the Department of Magical Transportation examination are eligible to learn the magic, which can manifest themselves at their own convenience.
It can be understood as teleportation in the wizarding world.
Compared with the Patronus Charm, although the difficulty of disembodiment is smaller, it is not that much smaller.
The difference is: there are only a few Aurors for the Patronus Charm, and there are only a few Aurors for Apparition.
You must concentrate when casting this spell. This is the most important thing, otherwise it is easy for the upper body to leave and the lower body to remain in place.
The magic spell was taught by Pipiru and Lu Xixi. The three of them got started quickly and can already cast it normally.
"Brother D, you are secretly studying behind our backs again." Draco complained.
In just two or three weeks of not seeing each other, the level of the curse has dropped so much.
No, you must seize the time to study.
During the vacation at the end of the third-year semester at Hogwarts, I learned the spells that only grades 6-7 are eligible to learn.
Volume. It’s really too volume.
