Harry Potter’s Natural Villain
Chapter 12 The Candy Store and Misunderstandings
Malfoy was walking so fast that Hermione had to trot to keep up.
How are we going? Hermione seemed more aggressive than Malfoy once she made up her mind.
Just follow me.
Hermione followed Malfoy around in the east and west, entering and leaving the classroom. Soon, they came to the middle waist of the corridor on the fourth floor.
That's you. Malfoy walked straight to a statue of a witch, hunched over with only one eye.
Separate left and right! Malfoy tapped the stone witch with his wand.
The hunchback of the statue opens at once, big enough for a slightly thinner person to enter.
How do you know there is a mechanism here? Hermione asked curiously.
Secret. Malfoy sold off.
Don't say it, don't say it. Hermione was a little annoyed, but at the same time seemed to have forgotten the previous unhappiness.
Follow me, don't get lost, even if you go in from here, you won't get lost.
After that, the two entered the hole opened by the witch.
The two slid for quite a long distance, like a stone slide, and after an unknown amount of time, the two felt that they were standing on the ground again.
It's really cold here. Malfoy shuddered.
Fluorescent flashes! This spell is naturally used in dark places.
This is really like a rabbit tunnel. Hermione looked at it for a while and came to such a conclusion.
Don't be distracted, watch your feet, Malfoy reminded.
The ground here is full of potholes, and it will fall if you are not careful, and in a short while Hermione has almost fallen several times. It was Malfoy who supported her in time.
The itinerary was a bit boring, but since they were two people, they weren't lonely, and the two chatted with each other.
An hour passed quickly.
I'm wondering now if you're trying to murder a wizard of Muggle blood. The two became more and more familiar as the chat went on. Hermione even made the joke. Look at how secretive it is, I can't beat you.
This joke is not funny, but I also have a headache for my parents' ideas. Malfoy shrugged.
Oh, we're getting there. Malfoy felt the passage start to steepen.
Ten minutes later, the two came to a dilapidated stone staircase that stretched out of sight.
The two then began to climb the stairs again.
Boom. They seemed to be at the top, and Malfoy knocked on the trapdoor twice, then pushed it open.
Look, we're in the cellar, Malfoy whispered to Hermione.
Come up. Malfoy climbed up first and then reached out to Hermione, pulling her up too.
The cellar is filled with chairs and tables, and the floor is covered in a thick layer of ash that makes this trapdoor almost integrated into the floor. If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it's hard to imagine that there would be a door here.
So how do we get out now? Hermione asked. I think we're going to be treated as thieves now.
You don't have to worry about that. Said Malfoy and walked directly to the stairs, ready to go out in a fair manner.
I think you're crazy. Hermione rubbed her forehead. She had anticipated that Slytherin and Gryffindor would get twenty or even fifty points at the same time. I'm just an accomplice, this guy should be deducting more. Just as Hermione was thinking. There was a sudden exclamation.
Oh, little Draco, why are you here? came a woman's voice.
No wonder he knows this place so well, Hermione thought.
Come out for Halloween and relax, Aunt Ambrosio.
It turned out to be little Malfoy, thanks to your idea last time, we made a lot of money.
' came the voice of a middle-aged man.
But you can stay in this shop. I remember you are only in the first year. If you are caught, you will be deducted points, right? Ambrosio said, this man is the owner of the Honey Duke. People in other stores are not as talkative as we are.
Of course, I sneaked out this time, and there's a tow bottle next to me, Malfoy said.
Let me see, oh, it's very romantic to bring your little girlfriend to play on Halloween. We won't let you down here. We just happened to have a batch of fresh goods today. Would you like to try it? Ambrosio asked. Hearty laughter. Apparently saw Hermione behind Malfoy.
I'm not his girlfriend! Hermione emphasized word by word, in a soft but firm tone.
I understand, I understand, what are the popular names for young people nowadays, this name is too crude, we can't keep up with the trend. Obviously the boss didn't listen to her explanation. Before Halloween, the two of them violated school rules and came to Hogsmeade. It doesn't matter who they lied to?
Okay, let's stop talking, let's take a look around. Malfoy looked at Hermione's increasingly cold face, and decisively interrupted the conversation.
Then you have to take a look at my new goods. These things are really unlucky. If you didn't make a lot of money last time, you really couldn't buy them. Ambrosio said.
It is said that it is a tour, but in fact, the location of Honey Duke is not very large. A glance is enough to make people have a panoramic view. But the store's dense shelves filled with candies are enough to make one feel dizzy.
Huge chunks of creamy peanut candy, chunks of shimmering pink coconut sorbet, hundreds of varieties of chocolate neatly arranged, a big bucket of multi-flavored beans, a bucket of sizzling bee candy, Luo floating in the Sherbet drinks in the air, etc.
Along another wall are various candies with special effects. Bubble Super Bubble Gum (it fills a room with blue bellflower-colored bubbles that won't pop for days), bizarre shards of Furry Tooth Mints, tiny black pepper urchins (for your friends Spit fire out of your nose!), ice mice (I hear your teeth chattering and crunching!), butter mints shaped like toads (really throbbing in your stomach!), Crunchy sugar quills and exploding candies.
Hermione was almost dazzled by the candy, which in the Muggle world didn't look so wonderful.
You won't be satisfied just by looking at your stomach. Ambrosio handed the two bees candy. Try it, it tastes good.
Yeah, but we haven't paid yet, said Hermione.
Little Draco already paid, didn't he?
Hermione gave Malfoy a questioning look.
Go on, I'll talk to you later, Malfoy said.
Okay then. Hermione slowly reached out and took the candy.
Facts prove once again: never underestimate the allure of candy to women. Even for humans, the sugar-loving nature has long been etched into the genes.
How's it going, do you feel better? Malfoy asked after destroying a sizzling bee candy.
Um... Hermione nodded slightly.
How, do you want to take some back to school? Malfoy asked.
I can't eat that much. Hermione pouted.
Don't you bring some for your two friends?
The two of them are not my friends! Hermione's expression suddenly became excited again when she mentioned this.
Isn't the anger out yet? Let's make a bet. You go to the Halloween party as usual today, and they will definitely apologize to you.
Really? Hermione asked subconsciously.
Look, you still can't bear these two friends.
Hermione's face stiffened. He murmured, It's my words again.
In the end, the bet was over, because Hermione seemed to have believed Malfoy's words: Gryffindor's courage should include a brave admission of mistakes, such as your apology to me at the time.
If you throw the candy here again, they might drop their jaws, Malfoy continued.
Hermione burst into laughter, as if thinking of the expressions Harry and Ron should have.
Then I'll trust you for the time being. Seeing that something was wrong, she quickly returned to her normal expression. However, the radiant eyes still betrayed her current happy mood.
Oh, it's getting late, I think we can prepare to go back. Malfoy said suddenly, looking out the window. The sun seems to be going down.
What? Hermione also looked out the window, suddenly panicking.
Don't worry, I think we have enough time. Everyone is celebrating the festival, so I won't pay attention to a few less people. Malfoy said as he took several kinds from the counter and the wooden bucket on the ground. The candy was in his hand and handed to the boss.
Would you like to get more of this flavor? Malfoy said, pointing to the Momotooth Mint.
Well, I think my parents would like it too. Hermione nodded subconsciously. No, we really should go, we will all be deducted points if we are found! Now Hermione seemed to be back to the school girl who kept the school rules and disciplines in mind.
Does this mean that after unraveling the knot, you will no longer give up on yourself? Malfoy smiled.
Okay, let's go. He took the candy packaged by the boss and handed it to Hermione.
I wish you a prosperous business, see you next time, boss. Malfoy said goodbye to the boss.
Thank you for your hospitality today. Hermione did not forget to bow to the Ambrosio couple.
Be careful on the road! That road is not easy to walk!
Of course, Malfoy replied. Then he headed into the cellar, Hermione following closely behind him.
Then it's back on the way.
I didn't have time to ask you just now, how are you so familiar with that shopkeeper? Hermione asked as she pulled La Malfoy's sleeve in the dark environment where she could not see her fingers.
When I came here to play, I gave him a few tips for doing business in the Muggle world. What is it called? By the way! Hunger marketing seems to have made a lot of money, so they didn't ask me to collect money, right? .
How old were you then?
Sometimes it's clear that age can't be used to measure a person's intelligence. Said Malfoy, pointing to his head, although Hermione, who was blind in the dark, might not be able to see it.
Why didn't you go to Ravenclaw? Hermione was obviously puzzled.
Are you thinking that I'm Ravenclaw, maybe our relationship can be a step closer? Malfoy said suddenly frivolously.
What are you saying all of a sudden! Hermione flushed, but she couldn't see in the darkness.
Just kidding.
However, a slight joke touched Hermione's heart: If only he was a Ravenclaw. Hermione patted her face lightly.
It must be said that the last encounter with this time made Hermione's view of Malfoy greatly changed. It even made her reflect more on the mistakes she made when the two met for the first time. By the way, he strengthened his determination to let Harry and Ron apologize to him.
What am I thinking about! Hermione tried to free herself from her imagination.
Okay, I think we're going back to school soon. I felt that the terrain was gradually calming down. Malfoy said to Hermione.
After walking for a while, the two felt a ray of light entering their eyes, and the one-eyed hunchback witch's exit was about to arrive.
Malfoy went out first, looked around a few times, and made sure that no one was there before letting Hermione get out of the door.
The party is about to start. I guess Ron and Harry are looking for you to apologize to you. Let's go.
Thank you so much for today, Hermione said softly.
A trivial matter, said Malfoy.
This is the solution to the troll incident. Looking at Hermione's back as she turned away, Malfoy breathed a sigh of relief.
The next development should be the reconciliation of the three, and then Hermione's goodwill towards herself has risen.
It's been too long, it's time to go back as soon as possible. Malfoy was thinking about going to the Slytherin lounge first, and then going to the dinner.
When he turned around and was about to lift his legs, he suddenly met a pair of cold eyes.
It's going to be difficult now. Malfoy suddenly felt the slow malice brought to him by the world.
In front of Malfoy's eyes, a girl was clasping her arms across her chest while looking at him with a sneer.
