[HP] Walk in Thorns and Flowers

Chapter 130 Friends and Foes

When Christo walked out of the room, she saw her father touching his smooth chin.This is a very intriguing action.So, she walked over and asked, "Dad, do you know him?"

Mr. MacMillan looked at her amusedly: "Don't you know him?"

Lucius, who had been neglected, coughed lightly, and Wormtail, who had been neglected all this time, continued to count his fingers.

"Miss McMillan, let's go to Malfoy Manor this weekend, Draco misses you very much."

Krisdo almost agreed quickly.Even Wormtail looked up at her three-second-long silence.As a mouse who stayed by Ron's side for three years, he had witnessed the "abnormal" friendship between Crystal and Draco, so what happened after he left?

Christo looked at Lucius without saying a word.Draco missed her a lot?He's supposed to be hot with the little blond girl from the Greengrasses right now, right?For a whole month since she disappeared from Hogwarts, she was like a lost ship drifting on this barren plain—except for the letter from Tracy, she hadn't received anything else.

In the impression, dragging her across the camp with her slender fingers twirling someone else's long hair, Christo stamped herself sadly.

Lucius was also nervous.His good and obedient son silently resisted after he brought up the matter.And now, Christo's attitude made him even more suspicious that Snape was talking nonsense.And he actually believed the report of that gossiping woman Rita Skeeter...

The more nervous he was, the more Christo applauded for his calmness and rationality.What is the difference between Mr. Malfoy's ideas and those of other Death Eaters. "I'm sorry, Mr. Malfoy, you have to know that in my heart, the master will always come first." She smiled helplessly, "You were also there at the time, and I want to share the worries for the master about the protective spell on Potter. .”

Lucius almost couldn't control the corners of his mouth twitching. It was a problem that even Voldemort himself couldn't solve. What could a fourth-year Hogwarts student discover?However, such a set of rhetoric about being loyal to Voldemort, even if Dumbledore borrowed his courage, he would not dare to refute it.

"Since that's the case, I won't bother you." Lucius replied wittily, turning his finger on the snake-headed scepter, and turned his mind on Mr. McMillan, "Chloe, I didn't mean to I got an ancient magic book..."

Christo squinted her eyes and looked at Lucius. You must know that she finally asked Voldemort for the quarter of an hour after the end of the meeting every day. You must know that in another 5 minutes, she will have to wait until tomorrow to see her dear father.Not even Draco's father could steal her father's attention!

Christo looked at Wormtail.

Wormtail moved out from behind her: "Mr. Malfoy, you should be at the Ministry of Magic by now."

Lucius was choked up, and he gave Wormtail a hard look, before he straightened his clothes and said goodbye to the McMillan father and daughter with a smirk on his face.

Mr. McMillan sighed.Christo looked at him puzzled: "Dad, are you interested in that book?"

McMillan rubbed his daughter's head: "Mr. Malfoy is a cunning person." He paused for a moment, then continued, "He is the most cunning person I have ever seen."

Christo pondered over and over in her heart, is it more insidious than Voldemort?

"Really? I think Mr. McMillan is much better than him." The door of the conference hall opened, and tall wizard robes rolled towards the three of them, "Heh——Wormtail." His tone said Filled with disgust, Krystal guessed that the face under his mask must be distorted out of shape.

Wormtail took a trembling step back, "You...you—"

The Death Eater took the mask off.

"Professor Snape!" Christophe exclaimed.

Wormtail trembled even more, but Professor Snape turned his gaze to Mr. MacMillan, as if looking at Wormtail one more time would make him spit it out. "Didn't expect me to have the opportunity to be a companion with Mr. MacMillan," he said grimly.

"Really? It seems normal to me. Compared with Dumbledore, the Dark Lord is more worthy of following. Mr. Snape must have the same opinion as me." Mr. McMee replied rudely.

The two faced each other quietly, their eyes met in the air, as if a spark had flashed.

Christo had no choice but to speak out to break the deadlock: "Professor—" Before she could say a word, Snape's cold eyes fell on her, and the deep obsidian eyes made her feel a little guilty.She knew that Professor Snape had been a Death Eater and had finally sided with Professor Dumbledore.But now that he was back, Voldemort did not punish him, and there was no news of his expulsion from Hogwarts.Which side is he standing on now?

She suddenly noticed something weird, and in the next second, somewhere in her mind was forcibly opened.She was taken aback, and quickly used Occlumency to expel the intruder in an instant.Before she could hide her surprise, she met Professor Snape's enigmatic eyes.It was just that moment.

"Mr. McMillan, I think we need to have a good talk about recruiting werewolves."

"Okay." Mr. McMillan replied with raised eyebrows, he patted Christo on the shoulder, and left with the black shadow.

Chris was a little confused for a moment.She was too reckless just now, and her reaction was too violent, she should calmly lead him into the misunderstanding made up in advance.Looking at the hem of the black robe that disappeared around the corner, she was filled with apprehension.

"Wormtail, you and Professor Snape are classmates, do you think his loyalty is reliable?" she asked.

Wormtail replied dejectedly: "I don't know." He wiped the spiky top of his head with sparse hair, and his tone was full of fear, "He will kill me! He will! You have to help me! Kerry Stowe! You must help me!" he screamed.

Christo's face sank, "Don't forget where you are."

Wormtail choked his own neck tightly, and the screaming stopped abruptly.

Christo turned her head and walked away, Wormtail followed her steps awkwardly on his short legs, he complained in a low voice: "Christopher, don't forget what I have in my hand, and Di I've seen that kid in Gorey's family, if you don't protect me, I'll..."

"Do you think you are valuable to Master?" Christo said almost cruelly.

Wormtail had a pale face, "You can't...you can't...it's a big deal, none of us will have a better time!"

"Shut up!" Christo's expression turned ugly, "Don't force me to do it."

Wormtail panted heavily and looked at her in astonishment. After a while, he showed a strange smile, "Really? I don't think you can do anything."

Christo pursed her lips tightly, what Wormtail said was right, first of all, she was not yet conscious of killing.Secondly, Wormtail played the same trick she did to Gilderoy back then. Even if she killed him, it would be too late to prevent the news from reaching Voldemort.

"Don't touch my bottom line." She dropped the words and walked straight to the potion brewing room Voldemort had equipped him with, with Wormtail trailing behind her like a real tail.

Christo suddenly felt that his existence was really disgusting.But she had no choice.Everyone knew about Wormtail, he was not suitable to show his face outside at all, his only value was to be Voldemort's eyes, staring at her.Of course, Voldemort wouldn't say that.Wormtail stayed by her side as a servant.

The wisest Voldemort thought he was Wormtail's only support, but he didn't know that Wormtail held the handle of McMillan and his daughter.Wormtail began to have his own plans. He didn't want to cling to Voldemort, who might kill him at any time, like an ant for the rest of his life. However, once Voldemort was defeated, the chips in his hand would be worthless.

What should be reported and what should not be reported, he felt that he knew very well in his heart.He can be driven by Krystal, but Krystal must ensure his safety, and this is just the beginning...

Life in the castle was very dull.Christo was facing either Voldemort or Wormtail, and she felt like a pet imprisoned in a cage.It wasn't until a week later that Voldemort's new arrangements adjusted her life slightly.

Professor Snape was once again her Potions teacher, spending two hours every day after meetings teaching Crystal's potions.

In this regard, Chris is not surprised at all. Voldemort's paranoia is as terrible as his own strength, not to mention that the other party is Professor Snape, who even she has doubts about.

Potions class was not peaceful at all, Christo was walking on eggshells, and Professor Snape was not as easy to fool as Wormtail.She could sense Professor Snape's temptation, and naturally his tricks were not enough in the other party's eyes.

She can't even make a standard of judgment.She's been out of the outside world for so long that she has no access to anything but the bullshit Daily Prophet.Although, she has 15 minutes to meet her father every day, but Wormtail who follows her everywhere makes her have to avoid certain topics.

That's right, until now, Mr. McMillan doesn't know the bargaining chips in Wormtail's hand, which is also one of Wormtail's demands on Christo.It's not that Christophe didn't think of a way, but Wormtail was too cautious, never making eye contact with her, and never touching anything she touched with his bare hands.As for the Imperius Curse, she would not have dared to play it under Voldemort.

Christo's intuition told her that this is not going to work, she can't do anything by herself...
