Harry Potter: Hello the Dark Lord

Chapter 12: Temptation before the banquet

Just because he was going to attend the banquet in the evening, Qin Weijie had thoroughly seen the tedious preparations for the banquet for the British nobles and gentlemen.

At ten o'clock in the morning, two etiquette teachers broke into the study. Under Qin Weijie's repeated objections, they forcibly dragged him away from the desk and began a horrific etiquette study.

"Mr. Foley, keep your back straight and never lean on the back of the chair..."

Then tell me, what is the back of the chair used for?

"Mr. Welfare, you can't lean down when you're eating... let alone pick up your plate..."

In addition, in his last life, he had eaten for more than 30 years. Today, he was told that he would not be able to eat, and Qin Weijie's psychological shadow area increased exponentially.

"Mr. Welfare, your cane is wrong..."

"Mr. Foley, your hat is crooked..."

"Mr. Welfare, you need to keep smiling..."

Where's my wand, where's my wand! ? I must invite these two etiquette teachers to have a bite to eat! !

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Weijie was exhausted.

Mrs. Carter finally informed him that he could take a break and try on clothes.

Qin Weijie thought it would be easier, but in the end he hit him hard in the face.

Don't say anything else, just say one piece of data.

In the next two hours, Qin Weijie changed into about a hundred suits, still the same kind of banquet suits that looked the same, and changed every minute and a half.

I asked you to change your clothes for two hours and asked if you were happy? Qin Weijie swears that he may never want to wear clothes in his life, how good it is to be naked, and to be able to walk birds.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, a carriage stopped at the gate of the Welfare Manor, which was used to pick up Qin Weijie to the Welfare Castle.

Actually, to say that it is a carriage might be an insult to the car, because the Nima pulling the carriage are all unicorns, or unicorns with wings.

The white unicorns of Yishui have a standard and well-proportioned body, and each one is about the same size. There are eight such magical creatures in total, and they are all just pulling carts.

The carriage is even more nonsense. The body of the carriage is carved from white marble, with gold-plated (afterwards Qin Weijie found out that it was pure gold) borders, the wheels are also inlaid with gems, and the side of the carriage is also inlaid with gold on the white marble. A golden lion Relief.

I heard that the golden lion is the emblem of the Welfare family, symbolizing the wealth of the Welfare family.

Qin Weijie firmly believes that this symbol is definitely not the wealth of the Welfare family, but the prodigal family of the Welfare family.

The interior of the carriage is even more luxurious. The seemingly small carriage has a space of nearly 300 square meters inside.

The entire interior of the carriage was covered with soft carpets. Although he didn't know the material, Qin Weijie knew that it was by no means cheap. Solid wood furniture and expensive sofas.

What's more nonsense is that there are also wine cabinets that are four or five meters high.

At half past five, the official departure, eight unicorns with long wings rose into the air, and the carriage took off without any bumps and flew towards the southeast.

The carriage was extremely fast, and after less than 20 minutes of flight, Qin Weijie finally came to Welfare Castle.

Foley Castle is located in a forest near Southampton. It is protected by magic and is generally invisible to Muggles. This is similar to Hogwarts.

Although he has not seen Hogwarts yet, Qin Weijie asserts that Foley Castle and Hogwarts are at least as large in size.

Foley Castle is a typical Gothic style castle. The towering spires and towers are soaring into the sky. They are made of black-gray boulders and look extremely depressing and solemn.

At this moment, Qin Weijie understood what Mrs. Carter said, that the Welfare Manor in London was too rudimentary.

As for the luxury in the castle, there is no need to describe it, it is full of the copper stench of the big capitalist family.

Under the arrangement of an old butler who claimed to be Tosta, Qin Weijie did not enter the banquet hall directly, but was sent to the study in the Welfare Castle.

In fact, Qin Weijie felt that this can no longer be regarded as a study, it should be called a library.

In the circular hall, there are quaint bookshelves on the inner three floors and the outer three floors. Each bookshelf reaches to the roof. It should be seven or eight meters high.

The books on the bookshelf should be carefully arranged, and there are many secret numbers on them, which should be easy to find books.

At this time, the old Marquis of Welfare was sitting in the center of the book… study, a space at least half the size of a basketball court.

Entering the center of the study, Qin Weijie looked at the gloomy old Marquis of Welfare with some embarrassment across the desk, which was almost five meters wide.

"I heard that you are teaching yourself magic recently?"

"Yes"

"how?"

"I have already taught myself all the spells of the first-year spells and Defense Against the Dark Arts course. There is no difficulty and can be used flexibly." Qin Weijie answered truthfully.

The old Marquis of Welfare's eyes lit up, and then he resumed his posture of sitting upright.

"Sit down." Old Foley pointed to the sofa beside him and said.

Qin Weijie sat down and continued to wait for the old marquis to speak.

After a long time, the old marquis said to Qin Weijie, "Do you know who the person who assassinated you was a month ago?"

Qin Wei thought for a while: "It should be the Church of the Goddess of Death."

The Church of the Goddess of Death is a heretical church with a long history. It is active all year round in continental Europe, but it is rare in the British Isles.

Rumor has it that the **** they believe in is the goddess of death, or death itself.

Believers are both wizards and Muggles. Believers wear strange clothes all the year round, and like to wear some masks that symbolize death.

These believers are extremely good at hiding, and they are very low-key on weekdays. They only occasionally take on assassination missions to supplement the operation of the church.

But 20 years ago, this church did something that was outrageous and was eventually uprooted by the Ministry of Magic.

"But I remember that this church was eradicated by the entire European Ministry of Magic, together with the British Ministry of Magic, twenty years ago. It seems to be related to the Spanish flu that ravaged Europe at that time."

"It seems that you have indeed put in a lot of effort this month." The old marquis said gloomily.

"There's no way, two days in a row, two assassinations, I can't stand it." Qin Weijie shrugged.

"In recent years, the Church of the Goddess of Death has shown signs of resurgence, but the people who want to kill you this time are not them, they are just hired killers."

"Then who is going to kill me?"

"I don't know. I have contacted the Selwyn family. Their underground business spreads all over the world, but even they don't know about this assassination, and the most important point..."

After speaking, the old marquis of welfare stopped, looked at Qin Weijie, and continued talking after a while.

"You are the only one who was assassinated..."

"What do you mean?" Qin Weijie was confused

"I think you have also heard about what happened to the Welfare family over the years, right?" The old marquis narrowed his eyes, as if he could see through Qin Weijie.

"I have paid attention to it. Except for you and me, the direct bloodline of the Welfare family has been killed."

"That's right," the old Marquis of Welfare, propped up his scepter and stood up, looking at Qin Weijie with a grim and suspicious expression: "And you are the only one who was assassinated! The rest of them died in that kind of weird... black magic, weird black magic. Magic! How do you explain this?"

"Am I the only one who was assassinated?"

Qin Weijie's face changed suddenly, and he felt that everything was confusing.

But at this time, Lao Fufu's expression was obviously a little scary. Qin Weijie felt that Lao Fuli was suspicious of him, because all the descendants of the welfare family died mysteriously in the past ten years, and only Qin Weijie survived. In this way, Qin Weijie was the biggest beneficiary.

Secondly, all the descendants of the Welfare family who died died of black magic, only Qin Weijie was spared.

Again, no one was attacked or assassinated, only Qin Weijie was assassinated twice, and both times were unsuccessful.

On the day of Diagon Alley, when all the attackers went to Ollivander's wand shop to assassinate Qin Weijie, Qin Weijie left by coincidence and went to Gringotts, which is the most protected and safest place in Diagon Alley.

To sum up, there is a doubt in the heart of Old Welfare. Qin Weijie may be the black hand behind the scenes, or the black hand behind the scenes hopes that Qin Weijie will become the heir of the Welfare family.

"You look like you are doubting me?"

Qin Weijie's face was indifferent, but he kept thinking about how he should go down.

Qin Weijie wanted to give up the inheritance rights of the Welfare family and simply go back to Huaxia, but looking at the expression on Lao Fufu's face at the moment, Qin Weijie knew that if he didn't explain clearly today, he might not be able to leave the study.

Qin Weijie's expression remained calm even though the waves in his heart were surging.

Whether this is the legend, with a smile on his face, a mother sells criticism in his heart.

"Otherwise, how would you explain that only you are alive, only you are assassinated, and you can survive the two assassinations by coincidence?"

Old Fufu was like a furious lion, questioning Qin Weijie loudly.

"What about my motives? Why did I do this?" Qin Weijie was not at all cowardly, looking up at the eyes of the old Marquis of Welfare.

At this time, you must not show a trace of guilt, you must be positive, be tough~

"In order to inherit the wealth of the Welfare family!"

"You're sick, you won't die!"

Qin Weijie suddenly burst into a rage and cursed in Chinese.

here we go! here we go! For a long time after that, Qin Weijie regarded the following words as the highlight of his acting skills. He handled the feelings of unwillingness, anger and grievance very well. Coupled with the stubborn expression of the boy, Teacher Jin would give one: perfect

"Before I came to the UK, I didn't know that the Welfare family was rich, and I never heard of the wizarding world. I didn't even know of the Welfare family until I was nine years old, and I didn't even know that my mother was British. I'm proud of being a Chinese, but you sent someone to tell me that I'm a jerk!"

"You want me to explain it to you, and I want you to explain it to me. Do you know how I came to the UK from China? I almost died on the road in seventeen months. I am sick and torture myself. Do you want to play a bitter scene for you?"

"Also, I almost died the day I arrived, okay? If it wasn't for the fact that my master brought me an amulet, I would have almost died that day!"

"On the day of Diagon Alley, it was obviously Ollivander who proposed to go to Gringotts. How could I know that Gringotts is the safest place to go? I only learned about the magic world the day before!"

"Don't you want to explain, I'll explain to you why I wasn't attacked by black magic..."

Speaking of which, Qin Weijie slapped his wand on the table: "This is the reason!"

"What do you mean?" Lao Fuli was puzzled.

"Huaxia Dragon Wood, warding off evil spirits and blocking evil spirits, and the scales on the core of the staff have the same effect, and even blocked Tom's mistaken magic. The day before Diagon Alley, the scales should have protected me. This is you. Explanation needed!"

Old Foley was still thinking, obviously he didn't react.

"Okay, since you think I'm coveting your wealth, then you can send someone to send me back to Huaxia! As a Chinese, I am willing to face the disasters of war with my country!"

Saying that, Qin Weijie turned around and was about to leave.

three two…

Qin Weijie thought silently as he walked.

"Okay, don't pretend any more, come back!"

Lao Fufu called to stop Qin Weijie, Qin Weijie stopped, but did not turn around and come back. At this moment, Qin Weijie needed an explanation from Lao Fu.

"To be honest, I did doubt you a month ago. So I gave myself a month to investigate. After the investigation, I gained a new understanding of you and dispelled a lot of doubts."

"You are a smart child, very similar to Diana, your mother. It's just that she was too obsessed with the East, and eventually died on the land she longed for."

What Lao Fuli said was very sad, and Qin Weijie couldn't help frowning, feeling a little sour in his heart.

"Hey, let's get down to business, after a month of investigation, I found that that kind of weird black magic has been covering you almost since you were born, but it has never hurt you, which makes me very puzzled. Until you take out With your wand, I think I found the answer I was looking for."

"The mysterious eastern power, I believe it is the only one that can protect you. But there is still a problem that I can't understand."

Qin Weijie just turned around and asked, "What's the problem?"

"Why does this kind of black magic turn to hurt those who attack you after it can't hurt you? It looks like... as if that force is protecting you." Lao Fuli said, his face showing Old and deep.

"This..." Qin Weijie also fell into thought, and then he simply told Lao Fu about the uncle who fell to his death, William who went to China to pick him up, and the Spanish officer who kindly took him in.

"You mean, those three people who helped you also have that kind of black line? It seems that after that strange black magic can't do any harm to you, it will randomly find people around you to attack..."

Old Foley murmured thoughtfully.

"Looks like I'm really an ominous person. If you want to live a few more years, old man, you'd better have less contact with me. If you really can't, just send me back to China." Qin Weijie said.

"No, it's too dangerous there! Jinling has already fallen, and the army of the Rising Sun Empire is overwhelmed. At most three months, China will be merged into the territory of the Rising Sun Empire."

Old Welfare's attitude is very tough. Today's international situation is extremely chaotic, and the Muggle world is already in chaos, especially in East Asia.

The Rising Sun Empire has already broken through Jinling, the capital of China, and from the end of last year to February this year, it carried out a **** massacre of Jinling City for three months.

Hearing Lao Fufu's words, Qin Weijie clenched his fists tightly, his emotions were on the verge of collapse, the innumerable crimes of the Rising Sun Empire, the Chinese people will not forget even in the next century, and the memory of that shameful hatred runs deep. It has touched the hearts of the children of Huaxia, and will never be forgotten by future generations.

"Fart! Just a little devil who still wants to annex China? Old man, you really don't understand the Chinese nation, 'I would rather fight a dead ghost than be a slave to a subjugated country'. When this nation is driven to a desperate situation, he will show you the real' Dragon Slaying'."

Although Qin Weijie's voice was tender, it was powerful.

If Master had not repeatedly reminded him not to intervene in the situation in Huaxia, Qin Weijie would have liked to fly back to Huaxia now, holding the wand in his hand, and gnawing at the big melons and the big melons in front of all the little devils.

"With your current ability, I will never trust you to leave the UK. Unless you get the title of great magician, I will never let you go back."

"A magic power above the seventh rank?"

"It's harder than you think." Old Fuli sighed: "Although we guess that the strange black magic of UU reading www.uukanshu.com will randomly select people around you to attack, but in order to ensure that the guess is correct, I still think it is necessary to send someone to investigate, and it is best to verify it... But now that China is in chaos and Spain is also in a civil war, I am afraid it will take a lot of time."

"You are free~"

Qin Weijie began to think about the way to quickly increase his magic power. Duka Stephen's other book "The Fountain of Magic Power" must be found. I wonder if it can be found in Lao Welfare's study. If there is no one here, then we can only hope for the Hogwarts library. After all, as the only magic school in the UK, it has collected a lot of books on magic theory for many years.

While thinking about Qin Weijie, he looked around Lao Fufu's study, and planned how to quickly find the "Source of Magic".

"Okay, get ready to go out, the guests should be almost here. You are the protagonist of tonight's banquet." Lao Fu patted Qin Weijie on the shoulder, stretched out his hand and said, taking Qin Weijie's small hand.

"Am I the protagonist?"

"As a descendant of my Welfare family, you will be one of the most honorable people in the magical world in the UK and even in the world in the future, and tonight is your first step into the magical world. I will declare you orthodox at the banquet. The identity of the heir will also introduce you to the other three families." Lao Fuli said

"Isn't it the Holy Twenty-Eight Family? Why the other three?"

"The Twenty-Eight Saints are just some families with gold on their faces who want to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix. Remember, in the eyes of the Welfare family, there are only three families that can make friends with us."

"Selwyn, Crouch and Lestrange?"

"Yes, these are the four great saints in the magical world, the four great saints without a doubt."
