if i am not me

As the number of pedestrians on the road became less and less, Harry and Draco's pace became faster and faster.Gradually, they walked into the woods on the outskirts of the village, and at the same time left the noisy crowd far away.

Stopped by a thick bush, Harry looked around cautiously, then nodded to Draco with reassurance, and said softly, "Okay, let's go."

As soon as he finished speaking, Draco pulled out the wand that had been in his pocket. From his movements and the impatient expression on his face, Harry immediately understood how impatient he was.This realization made Harry laugh a little, and at the same time secretly sighed.If it wasn't for worrying that their departure would be too abrupt, which would arouse unnecessary suspicion, why would he lead such a big circle with others.

But it's not important to say these things now, throwing Draco a look that he would naturally understand, Harry waved the wand in his hand neatly.So, after two muffled sounds of "Bang!" and "Bang!", they disappeared in the forest, and the land returned to its previous tranquility.

When they showed up again, they were already in a valley hundreds of miles away from Hogwarts.At this time, Narcissa was instructing the house elf Dobby to prepare some snacks, when suddenly, she stood up from the sofa as if she had sensed something.A few seconds later, another house elf, Wendy, hurried up to her and said in a shrill voice, "Ma'am, Ma'am. The young master is back."

Hearing this, a smile quickly bloomed on Narcissa's well-maintained and beautiful face, and she walked quickly towards the hall without caring about maintaining her elegant demeanor.But the speed of the two boys was obviously much faster than her, and she had just reached the corridor when Harry and Draco had already entered the main house.

Seeing Draco and Harry whom they hadn't seen for a long time, Narcissa eagerly greeted them, and gave them a big hug without hesitation.After some gentle questioning, she stroked their cheeks and asked about her recent school life.

"Okay, Narcissa, let them in first." At this time, Lucius, who got the news, also walked out of his study room. Seeing that his wife was tending to chatter, he hurriedly interrupted her that she might appear next time. nagging.

After hearing her husband's words, Narcissa remembered the purpose of the two children's adventurous return today, and covered her lips with her hand, she hurriedly let go of the two.Seeing this, Harry and Draco couldn't help laughing lightly, at this time Lucius also said straight to the point, "Harry, are you sure you want to go by yourself?"

Unexpectedly, Lucius would get to the point so quickly, and Harry couldn't help being slightly taken aback, but he quickly came to his senses and nodded firmly.

Harry's attitude made Lucius's eyes flash with appreciation, but when he thought of that incident, he still tried to dissuade him again with earnest words, "Actually, you don't need to go. Although there have been some minor troubles recently, as long as it is something the Malfoy family wants , you can still get it even in the Ministry of Magic."

Harry was taken aback when he heard the words, but he quickly smiled, shook his head and said, "Thank you. But I can take care of this matter, please don't worry."

How could Lucius fail to hear the tactful refusal and the determination contained in his words, but he didn't feel displeased, on the contrary, he developed some appreciation and compassionate understanding.Wasn't he like this back then?At this young and vigorous age, after deciding on something, I naturally hope to do it myself, rather than trouble others too much—even if this other person is the father of my future partner.

Because of this, after seeing Harry's persistence, he just smiled and said lightly, "Well, let's set off as soon as we get ready."

As he spoke, he drew out his wand and slammed it on the top of Harry's head, "Disillusionment Charm! (Disillusionment Charm)"

For a moment, Harry felt as if Lucius had cracked an egg on his head, and a cold chill flowed into his body from the place where it was knocked.Harry knew that from this moment on, he was like a chameleon that seemed to be invisible.

Drake watched the changes in Harry's body curiously. After walking around Harry a few times, he raised his hand to touch Harry's almost invisible outline, and exclaimed in satisfaction, "If you don't look carefully , no one can find you. Be careful though..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Narcissa's voice sounded appropriately, "Dobby, bring the box."

The house elf Dobby kept shrinking in the corner. Hearing Narcissa's words, he snapped his fingers, and disappeared into the air with a "snap!", only a few seconds later, it reappeared in the same way It was in front of them, but at this time it already had a gorgeous wooden box in its hand.

"Come on, Harry." After Narcissa took the box, she waved to Harry very affectionately. Since the relationship between the two children was exposed at Christmas, Narcissa and Lucius have regarded him as a member of the Malfoy family. part of it.After all, they knew very well what Draco's actions represented in the Malfoy family, which is famous for their devotion. Coupled with the growing influence of Harry's guardian Mary in the Muggle world, it was only a matter of time before the wedding was held. .

Now that they have the awareness to become a family, there is no need to hide some things.Narcissa took out the key close to her body and opened the wooden box, and took out an item that stunned Harry.

It was a liquid-like, silvery-gray thing with shimmering points of light—the invisibility cloak.

Undoubtedly, Harry was stunned.For the thing in Narcissa's hand, and also for the meaning that this thing appeared in front of him.

You must know that things like invisibility cloaks are definitely something that can be encountered but not sought after. No matter how much wealth you have, you may not be able to buy it, and even if you have it, it is not something outsiders can know.Harry knew that the Malfoy family was an ancient aristocratic family that had been passed down for thousands of years, but due to the prejudice from his previous life, he really never thought that this family also had an invisibility cloak, let alone that Lucius And Narcissa will take this thing out.

Of course, what surprised him even more was when did the invisibility cloak become so popular?You must know that the invisibility cloak is extremely rare. The one he once had was inherited from his father James, and other than that, it seems that only Barty Crouch has one.

Seeing the shocked and puzzled expression on Harry's face, Narcissa couldn't help explaining with some pride, "This is an invisibility cloak, Harry, one of the treasures of our family. Come on, try it on now, You'll be surprised."

It made Narcissa put the cloak of invisibility on her body, and Harry felt the familiar texture surround him, and he was in a daze for a while.Thinking about Narcissa's actions again, could it mean that they accepted him and Draco...?

Thinking of this, Harry's face turned red, but after that, a gleam of joy crept into his heart.No matter how calm he pretended to be, in fact, he was really worried that Lucius and Narcissa would not accept him.After all, on the surface, he is just a little-known "commoner" who doesn't even know his blood.

But soon, Harry's attention turned to the Invisibility Cloak, because he sensed something was wrong.

"Harry, is it easy to move?" When Harry put on the invisibility cloak, the other three completely lost sight of him, and Draco's eyes lit up when he saw this.He immediately thought that this thing would double their chances of success, and at the same time secretly blamed his parents for taking out this magical invisibility cloak at this time.If Harry hadn't been going to the Ministry of Magic, maybe he didn't know that he had such a good thing at home.

Hearing Draco's voice, Harry hurriedly collected his thoughts, and began to try to use this invisibility cloak which was slightly different from the one in his impression.After walking a few steps and doing a few movements, he felt that his previous proficiency gradually returned, "Well, no problem."

But at the same time, the feeling in his heart became stronger.After touching the material of the cloth, he was sure that this dress was different from the one he used to have.Moreover, this one is obviously not as good as the one from Potter's house...

Does the invisibility cloak make a difference?

"Okay, since that's the case, let's go." Seeing that everything was ready, Lucius spoke. "Harry, take my hand."

Hearing what Lucius said, Harry immediately threw away the conjectures in his mind and concentrated on the matter in front of him.Putting on Lucius' arm, he pulled off the invisibility cloak on his head, nodded to Narcissa and Draco, and followed Lucius to the outside of the manor.

A few minutes later, Lucius' figure disappeared outside the gorgeous door of Malfoy Manor with a muffled sound, and in an alley in a remote street in London, a man covered in a cloak suddenly appeared On the street, fortunately, this place is too remote, so no one noticed such a strange person.

Harry had thought that Lucius would take him directly to the Ministry of Magic, but obviously, he guessed wrong.Just when he was puzzled, Lucius showed a smile on his face hidden under the hood, and explained as if he understood his thoughts, "Apparition and Floo Network are not good for you. Appropriate, so I'll take you with the rest."

Maybe Harry didn't know, but Lucius knew that since that Potter started as Deputy Minister of Magic, the Ministry of Magic had been turned into an iron barrel by him and his gang.Leaving aside the Floo Network, which was already under surveillance, now, even Apparition is restricted.If you haven't registered with the Ministry of Magic beforehand, the Ministry of Magic's latest magical barrier will automatically move people to the VIP entrance of the Ministry of Magic-although this entrance is called "VIP", in fact it is damn simple.

After looking around for a while, Harry knew where they were.It was just as I remembered it, with a few dilapidated-looking offices on a bleak street, a closed tavern, a dump truck that was overflowing, and a red telephone booth that seemed to have been abandoned for a long time.

Although he still didn't understand why Lucius would lead him this way, he chose to believe it.

"Now outsiders, especially those like you who want to enter the Ministry of Magic without anyone noticing, can only choose this path. Harry, don't talk next, remember what I did." Saying, Lu Hughes took Harry into the dilapidated phone booth.

Only this time, Harry didn't feel crowded. As soon as he entered the phone booth, he found that the space inside had been enlarged.Although the phone is still broken, at least it gives a much better impression.

Lucius dialed the button on the phone, and while dialing, he seemed to be talking to himself, "6, 2, 4, 4, 2." He paused every time he said, and the words were very clear, Because he wanted Harry to remember this set of numbers.

Just after dialing, a cold female voice rang beside them, it felt like someone was speaking in your ear, "Welcome to the Ministry of Magic, please tell us your name and what you are here to do."

"Lucius Malfoy. Come to deal with the property rights of the Nottinghamshire estate." After speaking, he tapped the phone with his hand holding the wand, and quickly uttered a spell.Harry had never heard of the spell, but he soon learned what it did.

The incantation caused the machine to stop momentarily, but only a second later, the indifferent female voice said, "Thank you, guest, please pick up the badge and put it in front of your clothes." Then, the two badges came from The metal chute for change slid out with a tinkling sound.

At this moment, Harry, who saw all this, finally knew what Lucius' words meant before.With the invisibility cloak and such a spell, the door of the Ministry of Magic can be said to be wide open.That's why he said that this is the only way and the easiest way.

Of course, the premise is that you are lucky enough to have an invisibility cloak and can use that spell well.

"Visitor of the Ministry of Magic, you need to be checked at the security checkpoint and register your wand. The checkpoint is at the end of the main hall."

While Harry was still thinking about it, Lucius handed over a badge.Harry hurriedly took it and looked at it, but it was blank.

Without thinking twice, Harry pinned the badge to his clothes.At this time, the ground of the phone booth also began to tremble, and slowly, they sank toward the ground.The surrounding light gradually dimmed as they sank deeper and deeper, and it didn't take long before they fell into darkness.Fortunately, the darkness didn't last too long. About a minute later, a thin light appeared in this dark space, and gradually widened, finally converging into a brilliant golden color.

The door opened, and the indifferent female voice sounded again.

"The Ministry of Magic wishes you a pleasant day."
