A Magical Journey Starting at Hogwarts

"I'm sorry, I might disappoint you." Aaron said lightly, "I can't arrange for him."

"Why? It's just a house elf, this is easy for you."

"It's very easy." Aaron did not deny it, but then changed the subject, "But I have no reason to help him. Our family is not a charity after all.

There are so many rich people in the world, but how many of them have sympathy for the beggars on the roadside? If you can throw some money when passing by, you are considered a good person. "

Harry was speechless, but looking at Dobby's pitiful look, he still wanted to fight for him.

"Dobby is very powerful. He can cast spells without a wand or spells, and he can even knock Lucius away."

"What?" Aaron sat up straight in shock. Perhaps because he moved too much, there was a slight pain in the area wrapped by the bandage, and the expression on his face was also unnatural.

"You hit Lucius Malfoy?"

Dobby nodded weakly, "He wanted to hurt Harry Potter, so..."

Aaron rolled his eyes and looked at Harry helplessly, "No wonder you helped him like this."

Harry's face turned slightly red and he said awkwardly, "I just want to help him find a job."

"A job where the master can easily offend others." Aaron sneered. "To put it bluntly, taking Dobby in would be a slap in Malfoy's face. No one in the wizarding world would be willing to offend a powerful pureblood. family"

"Isn't that the same in your family?"

Aaron's eyes flashed slightly and he snorted disdainfully. He stopped playing this kind of clumsy provocation when he was three years old.

"Malfoy doesn't have the courage to challenge the authority of the Gaius family, nor does he have the strength.

But the Hidden World family doesn't want to cause trouble, even if the trouble is small or even non-existent.

And I also stayed at the Malfoy family for a day or two. They took good care of me. Now you ask me to take in a house elf who beat Lucius Malfoy. Do you think it is appropriate? "

"Maybe... it's inappropriate." Harry said weakly, "But I can't think of anyone else besides your family. We can't let the Weasley family...

yes! And the Weasleys, I remember Mrs. Weasley always wanted a house elf to help her with housework. "

"Haha!" Aaron chuckled, "If it wasn't inconvenient, I would definitely give you a like."

"Isn't this okay?" Harry frowned unconsciously.

“Nonsense, of course not.

You should be aware of the situation at the Burrow. The Weasley family is living a tight life. Do you think they have the money to pay Dobby a salary? "

"I don't need money." Dobby timidly bit his lip and said, "Dobby's biggest wish is freedom. He is extremely lucky to be able to leave the Malfoy family. I dare not ask for too much."

Aaron was silent for a moment and said calmly: "You are considered ambitious among house elves. If it does not bring financial pressure to them, the Weasley family may not mind taking you in.

But I still recommend that you don't go to their house. Weasley and Malfoy were originally at odds with each other, but both sides were able to restrain themselves.

But if you, Malfoy's former servant, go there, it will be like pressing Malfoy's face to the ground and rubbing it hard. You know Mr. Lucius, do you think he can bear this kind of shame and humiliation?

He will use his power to keep putting pressure on Weasley until he agrees to expel you. "

"Well..." Harry interrupted, "Aaron, you may not know that Riddle's diary was placed in Ginny's cauldron by Lucius at Flourish and Blotts Bookstore. He almost killed Ginny. .

In other words, the relationship between their two families could not be worse. "

"Harry, I know you don't like Malfoy, but I can tell you responsibly that Lucius definitely doesn't know the secret of that diary." Aaron said firmly, "If he wants to target anyone, he can only It will be within the rules, no matter how displeasing it is, and he will never kill a pure-blood family."

"Are you so sure?"

"Use your smart brain and think about it carefully. Is it really difficult to make Arthur Weasley lose his job in the Ministry of Magic with the power of the Malfoy family in the wizarding world?"

Harry was stunned for a moment, thinking of Lucius's attitude towards the Minister of Magic Fudge. It seemed that it was really not troublesome for him to make Mr. Weasley lose his job.

But the reality is that Mr. Weasley has always been standing in the Ministry of Magic, and he can still find trouble with Malfoy from time to time.

This may be related to the fact that he is the patriarch of the twenty-eight pure-blood Weasley family, but if Malfoy really makes up his mind, Weasley may not be able to survive in the Ministry of Magic.

After thinking about this, Harry let out a long sigh, "Then there is nothing we can do."

"It's okay, Harry Potter." Dobby shook his head slowly, "Dobby can always find a job.

And I think the new job, no matter how hard it is, is much better than being a servant in the Malfoy family. "

Harry pursed his lips, feeling a little uncomfortable.

He could hear regret in Dobby's words, but he was also dependent on others and couldn't help even if he wanted to.

"Perhaps, you can go to Dumbledore." Aaron suggested. "The most powerful white magician in this century will not worry about Malfoy's revenge. Hogwarts can also provide a house elf without any pressure." Work.

However, the salary won't be too high, but food and housing are included, there is no abuse, and... you can resign if you don't want to work. "

Harry and Dobby looked at each other with bright smiles on their faces.

They have all forgotten where they are. Hogwarts can perfectly solve Dobby's work problem, and Dumbledore will definitely not refuse.

"Thank you, Aaron." Harry said excitedly, and rushed to the door with Dobby.

There's still a little time before curfew, and with any luck, they'll be able to get it done tonight.

Aaron's cheeks twitched unconsciously as he watched Harry and Dobby disappear through the door.

Who is this?

There was no sincerity when I came, and I was so careless when I left. I just said thank you and that was it.

...

Early the next morning, Madam Pomfrey enthusiastically helped Aaron remove his bandages and brought him a particularly hearty and nutritious breakfast. Even Abe had four chicken drumsticks.

"The breakfast in the school hospital is a bit too luxurious."

Aaron looked at his dinner plate in confusion. When Harry was in the hospital, it was just pumpkin porridge, but when it came to him, it was fish, eggs, milk and beans.

Even though he was the only one among several patients who could breathe and speak, this differential treatment still made him feel a little uneasy.

"Professor Snape specially reminded you that you need to supplement your nutrition." Mrs. Pomfrey explained with a smile, "And Professor McGonagall announced the news last night. You are one of the heroes who solved the Chamber of Secrets incident. I No matter what, I have to arrange a good meal for you.”

"So this is ah!"

Aaron felt a little more moved, because his dean knew that he felt sorry for people.

No one else even knew to come and see him, bad review.

Just as he was thinking this, Professor Sprout and Professor McGonagall appeared at the door, carrying several glass bottles emitting white steam, with joyful smiles on their faces.

"Gaius." Professor McGonagall walked to Aaron's bed, tapped her wand, and a pile of gifts was piled at the end of his bed.

"These are all given to you by your friends, and Harry also specially asked me to prepare a fruit basket for you.

They blocked the school hospital early in the morning. Many people came from the four colleges, but Madam Pomfrey did not let them in, otherwise it would affect our ability to remove the petrification of the five victims. "

Click! Click!

Aaron blinked and felt an inexplicable pain in his cheek. Just as he was about to say something, a white shadow jumped into the pile of gifts.

Abe picked excitedly, stuffing various snacks into his pockets one by one. The pile of gifts decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye, and only a few bouquets of flowers remained.

Professor McGonagall couldn't help but show her hands to Aaron, "I delivered the gift, and I don't have any objection if you ask Abe to collect it on your behalf."

Aaron forced a smile, then pulled the proud Abe in front of him, and punched him twice on the forehead, "It's okay to be greedy, but you must be a bit of a glutton at least!"

Abe rubbed his forehead aggrievedly, and immediately took out a box of biscuits from his pocket. He looked directly at Aaron with a pair of clear eyes: If you don't have enough, come to me for more.

Aaron: ...

Bear with it! After all, he is the dragon cub who has grown up with him.

"Haha!" Professor McGonagall laughed heartily, "I feel relieved to see you are in such good condition."

"I'm sorry, Professor, I made you laugh." Aaron said helplessly, "Are those Mandrake potions?"

"Yes, Professor Sprout and Madam Pomfrey prepared it together last night." Professor McGonagall said as she flicked her wand, and brown-green potions flew out of the mouth of the bottle and landed on Madam Norris. , Colin Creevey, Justin Finch-Fletchley, Penelo Crevat and Ghost Nick.

The medicinal liquid easily integrated into their bodies, and the petrification quickly faded.

A few seconds later, Colin Creevey, who was next to Aaron, blinked and let out a horrifying scream.

"Ah! Snake, such a big snake..."

The conditions of the others were not much better. Mrs. Norris jumped onto the window sill, Nick hit the wall quickly, and Justin rolled off the hospital bed.

That is to say, Ravenclaw's prefect Penello Crevat was relatively calm. After trembling for a moment, he put his hand into his pocket, probably looking for his wand.

"Okay, everyone." Professor McGonagall pressed her hands, her voice carrying soothing power, and the five patients who had just recovered gradually calmed down.

"The basilisk that hurt you is dead, the real culprit behind the Chamber of Secrets incident has been solved, and Hogwarts is safe."

Hearing this, several victims looked at each other in shock, feeling a little restless for a moment.

"It's really lucky to be able to save a life." Aaron said with a smile while enjoying his breakfast, "Especially all five victims saved a life. This is definitely the favor of the goddess of luck."

"Five victims?" Penello pondered for a moment and glanced around the campus hospital, "But there are six patients here!"

"You have to thank the sixth wounded man, Mr. Gaius, for saving you." Professor McGonagall said.

Aaron's heart skipped a beat and he immediately said: "I just helped find the Chamber of Secrets. Harry Potter, Ron, and Hermione are the main ones, and they are the real contributors."

Professor McGonagall rolled her eyes at him helplessly, but Aaron stared back unceremoniously.

What about reducing my presence? Don’t you know that the victim’s voice is countless times louder than other people’s?

"I knew Harry Potter was wrongly accused." Colin, an avid fan of Harry Potter, blushed. "He must have saved us and killed the giant snake."

Aaron raised his eyebrows and silently gave Colin a hundred likes in his heart.

Well said, it would be best to publicize Harry Potter's great achievements in school after being discharged from the hospital, so that the attention on him will naturally decrease.
