Hogwarts: The Book of Magic

Chapter 35 Confrontation with Old Malfoy

Time slowly rolled towards Saturday, the day when Lean and Hermione made an appointment to learn Latin together.

"Zell, Professor Dumbledore has something to ask you. Go to the third floor now and find two stone statues. From there, you can enter the principal's office. By the way, today's password is: rock sugar lemonade."

On the way to the library, Lean met Snape.

"Okay, Professor Snape." Although he didn't know what Dumbledore wanted from him, Lean nodded.

Seeing that Lean already knew, Snape didn't intend to stay here any longer.

But before Snape turned to leave, he took a deep look at Hermione and Lean.

"Sorry, Hermione, it seems that we don't have much time to study today, shall we continue tomorrow?" Rin said after seeing Snape walk away completely.

"Okay, Rin. If Professor Dumbledore is looking for you, go quickly, don't waste time." Hermione began to urge Rin.

From the little girl's point of view, the principal must have something to do with looking for Lien.

The fact is also true, besides Dumbledore, there is another person in the headmaster's room at this time.

Lucius Malfoy.

Draco Malfoy's father.

"Albus, can you guarantee that he won't kill him? Don't you have to wait until he makes a big mistake before taking measures?" Lucius stood in the principal's room and shouted loudly.

But Dumbledore was intently picking out the beans in the box of all-flavored beans.

"What?" As if realizing what Lucius had said, Dumbledore looked up, his blue eyes full of doubts.

"Damn it, can't you put down your snacks first! This time he released a fake killing spell, can you guarantee that he won't release a real one next time?"

As if feeling the contempt from Dumbledore, Lucius is a little irritable now.

"I don't think he can continue to stay in Hogwarts. For the honor of this school and the safety of all children, I suggest that he be locked up in Azkaban."

Without waiting for Dumbledore to speak, Lucius continued to speak.

"He's just a kid, Lucius, and it was Draco who insulted him first. 'Mudblood,' what an insulting word."

Dumbledore's tone remained the same, still so calm.

"But that's not to scare people with the Killing Curse!"

"If it was a real Killing Curse, do you think Draco would still be running around the school right now?"

At this time, there was a knock on the door of the principal's office.

"Ha, Lean, come in quickly."

Dumbledore sensed that it was Lean knocking on the door, and smiled and beckoned Lean to come in.

Hearing Dumbledore's permission, Lean walked into the principal's room and closed the door behind him.

"You are Lean Zell, right? I heard about you. The killing curse at the opening ceremony was really shocking."

Before Lean could reach Dumbledore's desk, Lucius rushed forward impatiently and held out his hand.

Lean gave Lucius a strange look, but he was thinking about who this person was in his mind.

But he didn't make people wait in a rude manner, and reached out his hand to hold it.

"Lucius Malfoy." Lucius said.

Now Li En understood, it was the young one who was beaten, and the old one came.

"You know my name, Lucius Malfoy, and I've also heard that you were very prestigious when you were a Death Eater."

There was a mocking smile on the corner of Rion's mouth, and he said in the same tone as Lucius.

"Sorry, it was only controlled by the mysterious man with magic at that time, and that was not my intention. I have already stated this to the Ministry of Magic after the war, and standing here now is proof of my innocence, Isn't it?"

Lucius pulled his hand out, paused, and continued: "But you actually cast the Killing Curse in public. It seems that Azkaban is a very suitable place for you."

"Why didn't I see it like this, Mr. Malfoy?"

Dumbledore watched the two engage each other with interest, throwing a berry bean or two into his mouth from time to time.

"I would like to hear more about it." Lucius pretended to be very interested.

Lean laughed twice, full of sarcasm, and then took out a piece of paper from his untraceable stretch pocket and handed it to Lucius.

Lucius looked puzzled and gave Rin a strange look, but he took it anyway.

After a cursory look, Lucius' face became ugly.The hand holding the paper began to clenched slowly, and the paper also became wrinkled.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, Lucius, this kid Rian seems to be living in a stronghold of Death Eaters."

Dumbledore sent the last make-up knife.

"By the way, thanks also to Mr. Malfoy for making that seat for Voldemort. I sold it to a salvage dealer for £[-]. You know, I never had more than one in my pocket until then. What about sterling?"

Lucius was looking at Dumbledore in disbelief at this moment, and he realized that it was Dumbledore who was setting him up.

I just don't know if the thing in this kid's hand is real.

Lucius glared at Rin viciously, gritted his teeth and said, "You're welcome, as long as I can help you."

"Sorry, I just remembered that I have a meeting to attend, so I'm leaving first." Lucius raised his cane, adjusted his hat, and said.

He plans to expose the matter now, he dare not gamble.

If he won the bet, Dumbledore's presence would only make Lean suffer; if he lost the bet, Lucius believed that the rest of the pure-blood families would not miss this good opportunity to encroach on the Malfoy family.

"Mr. Malfoy, the matter of Malfoy calling me a mudblood is not over yet. He insulted me so much, shouldn't you give me some compensation to comfort my wounded heart?"

Anyway, he has already threatened Lucius, and it's not so bad.Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself.

"You're threatening me." Lucius said every word.

He's about to explode now.

Having been in the magic world for so many years, Lucius never thought that he would be threatened by a young wizard who just entered school.

"Yes, Mr. Malfoy." Lean admitted generously.

Lucius felt as if something was stuck in his chest, and after a long delay he said, "Then what do you want?"

"Five magic crystals."

"Why don't you go grab it!" Lucius roared as soon as Lien finished speaking.

"Cough cough cough." Dumbledore also coughed.

He really wanted Lien to ask for compensation, but he didn't expect Lien to be so big when he opened his mouth.
