HP's return to innocence

Nothing actually happened that day, but when night fell, both the Malfoys and the Horcruxes felt extremely tired.After dinner, everyone reacted in the same way—returned to the room early, took a shower and went to bed.

Draco had just changed into pajamas and was lying on the bed when there was a bang and Dobby appeared in his bedroom.Draco froze for a moment, but quickly thought of the reason for Dobby's appearance, he waved his hand: "Go and stay in the kitchen."

Dobby bowed and disappeared.

Draco touched his chin, and told his father the news tomorrow, after all, today's blows are already enough.

At the breakfast table the next day—the three Horcruxes were also officially present—Draco said while eating a bun, "Father, Nagini is here."

Lucius' hand slicing the foie gras slipped: "What?"

"I found Nagini in the Forbidden Forest by accident before. During the holiday, I asked Dobby to hold her and apparated all the way here. Because Nagini is relatively large and is not good at apparating. So used to it that Dobby didn't get her here until last night."

Draco's original plan was to find an appropriate time after returning home to tell the story of his capture of the main soul and minimize his father's anger. He did not expect this appropriate time to be the first time he returned to the manor. one day.Therefore, Drake ordered Dobby to bring Nagini to the Malfoy Manor half a month after the start of the holiday—that was the right time for his preparations that he had originally estimated.

As for why Draco didn't kill the snake, on the one hand, it can be seen from Crown's attitude towards Nagini that he has deep feelings for the snake even if it is a Horcrux-Dumbledore said that Voldemort was not He knows love, but at least his feelings for Nagini are true—although it can be controlled by contract, if these guys are forced too hard, it is easy to cause trouble.In addition, Nagini is definitely a symbol of Voldemort. Keeping her and pushing out the Horcrux will make it easier to gain the trust of the original Death Eaters.

Lucius obviously didn't have a good impression of the giant snake, especially when he was a Death Eater and had watched many scenes of swallowing people alive.He rubbed his brow again, and realized painfully that if he lived like this every day, the wrinkles would soon find him.

"Let her stay in the manor, it's okay."

"Lucius~" Narcissa looked at Lucius with a stiff expression. Most women have an innate fear of snakes, even if she was born in Slytherin, which is marked by snakes.As long as she thought of a thick lady snake crawling around in the garden of her home, Narcissa felt a chill down her back.

"I think the three Mr. Gaunt can take good care of their pets." Lucius patted the back of Narcissa's hand and gave the three Horcruxes a look.

This was also the first time the Horcruxes had readily accepted an order from Malfoy.

After breakfast, in the small square in front of Malfoy Manor, Draco could clearly see the interaction between Voldemort and Nagini from the window.

The horcruxes were hissing with Nagini in a row, and Miss Snake was also hissing happily, and kept crawling around the three of them in an S-shape, but suddenly, Miss Snake couldn't move anymore .She turned her head annoyed, only to find shyly that she had accidentally tied a knot while crawling.

So the three horcruxes pulled and hugged, and tried their best to free Miss Snake from the knot...

Draco turned, sat down at the desk, and started his work.

Lucius handed over part of the research on the resurrection potion to Drake, although he was skeptical about whether Drake could understand this advanced potion.

However, in order to find out the reason why the age of the Horcruxes is shrinking, he has to do a lot of research, but at the same time, he cannot let go of the work of the Malfoy Patriarch—the stall that has been spread in the Muggle world, and the original work in the magic world. powerful forces, ordinary social interaction, and dark transactions with various people in the Muggle world and the magic world—fortunately, Lucius is a wizard with powerful magic power, and his body is far superior to ordinary Muggles, otherwise the current Lucius S must have been in the hospital from overwork.

Therefore, part of the research on resurrection potion materials, and part of the Malfoy family's business, Lucius transferred to Draco's hands.

After a few days, the business part, Drake, was doing fine, but the research side, Drake had come to the conclusion that nothing was wrong with his father - the same conclusion Lucius himself had come to after his research.

"Draco!" Just after closing a thick book in Malfoy's house, Drake reconfirmed that his conclusion was not wrong, when there was a knock on the door, it was Narcissa.

"What's the matter, mother?"

"Those damned Ministry of Magic! It's the red-haired Weasley, they're here to check for prohibited dark magic items!" Narcissa said through gritted teeth, "Hurry up and let the elf put away your things."

"Yes, Mom." Draco nodded, and Narcissa, who believed her son could handle all of this, quickly ran downstairs with her skirt - she was wearing the latest retro dress designed by a Muggle designer, The silver high-heeled shoes inlaid with this diamond are from the same brand.

Fortunately, Draco has a good habit of tidying up his desk as he progresses, otherwise he would definitely have a headache for the black magic books and research manuscripts on the desk.

After 10 minutes, Drake left his room and walked towards the first floor.In the hall, he could see Arthur Weasley and his colleague Perkins, sweeping around with some strange magical props on the ground floor.

The three Horcruxes sat obediently and read their books. Lucius and Narcissa had gloomy faces. They didn't stare at the two uninvited guests. They just talked about clothes while drinking red wine. and jewelry.Those expensive clothes costing hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of Galleons made the faces of the two Ministry of Magic staff even uglier, and at the same time they searched more carefully.

Weasley saw Draco come down the stairs, said something to Perkins, and walked towards the stairs.

As the two passed by, Draco brushed his hair lightly, and said proudly: "Please be careful, Mr. Weasley. Although I understand that you are performing official duties properly, I think magic The Ministry doesn't want to see a bill that says they have to pay a huge extra galleon because someone's clumsiness stained a carpet, or broke an antique."

Arthur Weasley's expression at this time clearly read, "It really is Malfoy, you are as bastard as your father!".

"Father, I thought you and Dumbledore had reached an agreement." Downstairs, Drake sat next to Lucius, and Drake was referring to Hagrid's incident.

"A one-time agreement cannot be used for a lifetime." Lucius shrugged.

"After those guys leave today, I will ask the elves to replace all the sheets, curtains, cushions, and tea towels with new ones." The temperature in Malfoy Manor is always comfortable and refreshing, but Narcissa is fanning herself quickly now. Wearing a fan, as if she was basking in the sun on a hot summer day.

The two Ministry of Magic officials didn't inspect the entire manor until noon, Lucius politely invited Perkins to lunch, as for Weasley, the six people who now live in Malfoy Manor collectively forgot and ignored him up.

The delicacy of smoked rabbit and venison steak made Perkins a lot faster in the subsequent inspection, while Weasley was slower and more critical.Apparently, the bacon sandwich he brought at noon didn't satisfy him very much.

When they finally left before dinner, Lucius presented Perkins with a bottle of white wine on the grounds that the conversation at noon was pleasant—and repeatedly stated that this was a gift from a friend, not a bribe.Weasley's face became even uglier, and he said some nasty things about it. As a result, Perkins could only embarrassingly reject the platinum noble's friendship.

Perkins hated Malfoy just as much as Weasley did a few years ago, and he often spoke ill of his father in the Ministry of Magic, but today he was able to sit down and have a pleasant dinner with the family.

Weasley, the Gryffindor, never thought of it from Perkins' point of view.Perkins was old, he was a widower and had no children, and a small employee of the Ministry of Magic like him did not receive a generous pension after retirement.And offended Malfoy, who has mastered the economic lifeline of the magic world, then when he is not in his position, life must be more difficult.

So Perkins probably didn't really think about what he wanted from the Malfoy family, at least at this stage he didn't think about it, he just wanted to maintain a calm and happy illusion so that Lucius wouldn't trouble him in the future.

"Can you win me over?" Narcissa was still shaking her fan, but it was much more relaxed.

"No need." Anyway, he is an old guy who is about to retire, and he is very slippery. Even if he is brought over, he will not be of much use. "But some things in the house need to be temporarily changed."

"Isn't it okay to let the elves hide?" Draco still remembers the situation in the second grade last time. Many of the family's treasures were sold to Bojinbok. rented his warehouse.

Because after the limelight passed, his father bought all those things back. Although Bojin raised the price, the difference between selling and buying, if used as rent and to avoid the Ministry of Magic's reward, is still a good deal. .

"Weasley also has some tricks." Lucius' answer was simple, and this was the first time Drake heard positive comments about Arthur Weasley from him.It looked like those things were indeed going to be sold, and at the same time, Draco thought about the last second-year shopping day - his father fist-fighting with Weasley, and the half-giant pulling off the frame.

Although his father would stuff the diary into the red-haired girl's cauldron this time, even his size couldn't fit it in, but Draco felt that he should try to find a way, at least not to let his father suffer.

The shopping day in Diagon Alley hadn't arrived yet, and the letters from Pansy, Blaise, Knott, etc. Slytherins arrived first.

The contents of all letters are very uniform. Of course, the first page is a noble greeting. Just look at the beginning and then the end to turn it over.

The second page is their narration about their life during this period, but don't look at the long adjectives and modifiers, just look at the main content-this is a bit difficult for young nobles, but for As far as Draco Malfoy is concerned now, he can easily pick out the words of those due to.

Most of these Slytherin classmates and friends had already been to Malfoyland, and they obviously had a good time, while expressing regret that they didn't get to see Draco.

On the third page, it's often the really important content.

They were cryptic, or they thought they were cryptic, asking about Patriarch Malfoy's recent movements. This should not be what these little guys want to know, but what their elders want to hear from their children.

Then, as if they were competing for the ability to turn around, they began to ask some news about Gaunt.Pansy even secretly comforted Draco, telling him not to be sad.And Blaise asked Drake more cryptically if he needed poison...

Drake wrote back to each of them.

The first page and the second page were, of course, in accordance with the nobleman's custom, but because he hadn't left Malfoy Manor, he could only write about the hateful Arthur Weasley.

On the third page, he expressed his sincere joy for everyone's love for the amusement park.As for his father's activities, Draco talked about the type of perfume Lucius was fond of wearing lately, as well as the pair of fine gemstone cuffs he had recently purchased.

As for the Gunters, Drake said that his pen pal in the United States accidentally discovered a few orphans... and then he did not miss a word.

Of course, after writing letters to these Slytherin friends, Drake wrote another letter to the American pen pal.

However, it is another Tom, and it seems that there are really many Toms.
