HP pure blood glory

Chapter 33 Crystal Ball

After the train stopped, the little wizards in the carriage began to get off the train one after another. The first-year freshmen had to go to Hagrid and he would lead them there, while the senior little wizards had to go to Hagrid in their respective colleges. Led by the prefect, they came to the restaurant.

For some reason, after getting out of the car, Draco didn't say a word to Louis. Instead, Pansy and Blaise, beside Louis, talked to Louis from left to right.

When it was time to get on the boat, Draco insisted on boarding Crabbe and Goyle's boat - making the boat dangle on the water, and Goyle looked almost dumbfounded.

Louis wasn't one to make friends very well, in fact, he didn't know why Draco was so weird right now.

It's as if they were close friends yesterday, but today they are classmates who are strangers.

After rowing the boat, this time, they didn't take the winding road again. Marcus Flint led the little snakes to a row of carriages. This time, they had a carriage instead.

After getting in the car, Miss Pansy whispered to Louis, "That's a Thestral. It is said that only those who have seen death can see it."

It was only then that Louis realized that the carriage was really pulled by a magical creature—he thought it was some kind of magic spell before.

They took the car pulled by thestrals and stopped in front of the big oak door of Hogwarts. After the little wizards had packed themselves, they entered Hogwarts in a long line—a familiar corridor, Familiar restaurant - except that there will be a group of new students entering this year - they are no longer the youngest grades in the school.

Louis had no trouble finding Astoria among this year's freshmen—the little girl's well-manicured blond hair stood out among the young wizards.

They sat down at the long Slytherin table and looked at the row of freshmen standing in front of the teacher's bench.

"Where's Professor Snape?" Blaise asked.

Louis looked over at the teacher's table, Hagrid was drinking with excitement, and the seats of Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape were vacant.

But this didn't arouse the little snakes' great interest - when the Sorting Hat called out the last name, Professor Snape came to the teacher's seat with a slick smile and sat down.

Astoria was unsurprisingly sorted into Slytherin - just like her older sister.

Oh, and speaking of Daphne, she didn't seem very friendly to Astoria, and when the little girl walked up to Draco to sit down, Louis was sure he heard Daphne let out a sarcastic smile.

Miss Pansy leaned slightly towards Louis: "As you can see, there are so few girls in the wizarding world this year—the Greengrass family will be the future marriage partners of the Malfoy family without accident—Daphne because I'm very dissatisfied that my sister stole her limelight."

"Have you been drinking?" Louis noticed two unnatural blushes on the girl's face.

"Yeah." Pansy nodded, raised her hand and took a plate of vegetable salad from the table in front of her, "It's okay, I'm not drunk yet."

The long table in Slytherin was usually quiet, except when the breakfast owls flew over - so almost the whole table could hear Astoria say to Draco beside her, " Brother Draco, what are you drinking?"

This sentence also attracted Louis' attention - this year he and Draco didn't sit together, I don't know what Draco thought, he went back to his chief seat to do it, and Astoria sat Next to him is the first-year chief's seat.

It's dark beer.

Draco looked at Louis unnaturally, and happened to meet those green eyes—those cold green eyes that seemed to never have any emotion, just glanced at him, and then looked at Pan West.

In fact, Louis just took a look at what Draco was drinking-dark beer-he knew the answer and he naturally didn't take a second look, and just at this moment Pansy asked him a question, of course he wanted to show respect , and turned his gaze back to the black-haired girl.

"Does the dark beer taste good?" the brunette girl asked, "It feels like a lot of people at the table are trying this beer this year."

"I like it better," Louis replied.

The black-haired Slytherin girl nodded knowingly, "I probably learned it from you."

Louis smiled politely.

Next, they watched as Dumbledore's wand sang the school song - the same process as last year, with the prefects leading them back to the Slytherin cellar.

No Professor Snape would call him away this year, which allowed Louis to sit on the soft sofa and watch the entire battle for the chief.

To everyone's surprise, after Astoria defeated several little wizards who challenged her in a row, no one challenged her again, and the chief of the first grade was finally determined to be Astoria.

Daphne snorted, stood up from the sofa, and walked to the girls' dormitory.Pansy said good night to the boys and followed Daphne.

Louis also got up from the sofa, he didn't do what he used to - waiting for Draco to walk with him - just as he reached the stairs, he felt sensitively that someone behind him was watching him - He looked back—Astoria gave him a sweet smile.

He nodded back.

It's still early for bedtime——Louis took a book and put it on his knees, and it was rare that he didn't take the "A Thousand Practical Spells" he used to read. The one in his hand, I bought it at Lihen Bookstore - "How to Correctly Judge a Crystal Ball".

Now that we have come here, it is necessary to mention the black box that Mr. Bojin gave him.

Just one night a few days ago, after greeting Lucius, he directly apparated back to Tim's Castle - obviously no one had lived here for a while, although it was still clean ( It looks like Yulis is cleaning every day), but the human breath is gradually fading.

This reminded him of the withering of pure-blood wizards in England. In a few hundred years, how many old wizard houses would become deserted?There will be goblins living there, weeds will grow ferociously through the stone steps, and people passing by will not even look at it...

Abandoning the messy thoughts in his mind, Louis took the black box and walked to the corridor full of portraits. The moonlight outside the window was the only light source at the moment—all the portraits closed their eyes quietly, and he was the only one in the corridor. the sound of my own breathing.

He went straight to the innermost portrait - when he stood still, the portrait in front of him opened his eyes, and the light of kindness in it filled Louis's heart with courage - he held up the black box and showed him to Look at the portrait - "I take the liberty to bother you, but I really have something very important to do."

In the portrait is an old man with white eyebrows and beards. Although his face is full of fine lines one after another, he does not look old-in fact, everyone will feel that he is the first moment he sees him. Wisdom - that is the precipitation of the years, yes, this is the oldest of all the portraits of the Meyer family - even at that time, there were no cameras in the wizarding world, and they hired a magician who specialized in portraits to do it for him. His descendants will retain his memory.

"It's it, I know, boy—you can open him."

Louis nodded, and opened the black box - there was nothing special inside, only a crystal ball, shining warmly in the moonlight.

"It's been so many years," the portrait showed a nostalgic expression, "I can't even remember, but this crystal ball still appeared."

Louis took out the crystal ball and held him in the palm of his hand. Through the crystal ball, he could see the distorted portrait.

"This crystal ball is different from anything I've seen before." Louis put away the crystal ball and looked at the portrait, hoping for an answer.

"Yes, because it's no ordinary crystal ball—in fact, it's—"

Just then, a scream sounded.

Holding a small lamp in his hand, Julius looked at Louis in horror, his mouth was wide open, and screams kept coming out of his throat.

"It's me, Julius." Louis shook his wand, and a little blue light illuminated his face.

Only then did Julius stop screaming, he dropped the lamp, and rushed towards Louis crying.

Louis had to draw out his wand to stop the opponent's movement.

"Oh—Master! Master!" Julius cried, "You are not here! Neither are the master and wife!!! They were taken away by the master—I am the only one left in the house! Julius is so lonely!"

Louis knew that he would not get an answer about the crystal ball tonight—the portrait next to him had closed his eyes, obviously not wanting to say anything more.

"Shh!" He gestured to Julis, "It's not convenient here - let's talk about it in my room."

Ulis nodded weeping, bent down and picked up the small lamp, followed behind Louis, and returned to Louis' bedroom.

The place had clearly been cleaned - when the warm yellow lights came on - and everything was just as he had left it.

He sat down at the desk, and Julius stood before him.

"Ulis, do you know why my parents left suddenly?"

The house-elf shook his head, "Ulis didn't know—but Ulis overheard their conversation!" He slapped himself twice at this point, "Ulis is a bad elf! Julius heard the master and madam talking—” Big tears fell down, “but Julius didn’t mean to—” he sobbed, his voice was broken, as if he was a little out of breath.

Louis could only tap the table with his wand, "It's okay—tell me what you heard—I am your master, as long as you don't betray me."

Ulis raised his head and looked at Louis with emotion, "Ulis knows! Ulis will never betray the young master! Ulis will tell the young master what he saw—"
