HP's Silence is Gold

Snape's face was gloomy. He waved the wand in his hand and used Clean Up to remove the stains on the table.Lucius was sitting on a soft chair sofa, he quietly watched Snape who had been refusing to say a word until now, and was only concerned with cleaning his own room in a daze.There was a desolate and deserted atmosphere in Snape's room, occasionally mixed with a little potion smell, which wasn't too unpleasant, but it wasn't as good as imagined either.

"How long are you going to hold it?" Lucius never took his eyes off Snape from the moment he sat down.

"What do you think I should say to you?" Snape looked at Lucius, his thin lips twisted into a slightly sarcastic smile. "Rage you? Beat you up? Or... Congratulations on winning the Dark Lord's favor?"

With a tense face, Lucius put his folded hands on his knees. "Favourite? The Dark Lord to me? Are you sure you're not joking?" He said, looking at Snape through gritted teeth.These days, Lucius is in a terrible mood. Obviously that girl Linna has gone back to the Muggle world, and obviously the diary has been taken away with her, so why does the Dark Lord appear to him at that time every day in such a leisurely manner? Where is his study waiting for him?

"You've gone too far this time, Lucius." Snape said lazily, ignoring Lucius's gnashing of teeth.

"It's too much, is it too much for me to protect my son?" Lucius sneered, "In your heart, could it be that Lily Evans Potter's daughter is not as good as Draco, who has been called your godfather since childhood? "He was a little annoyed, Snape's attitude was really annoying.

"No, I didn't mean that." Snape turned his head, he knew that his attitude just now was a bit too much, whether it was Linna or Draco, he was very concerned, but Lucius this time The behavior is really over the top. "How old is Linna, are you so relieved to hand over the Dark Lord's Horcrux to her? If something happens to her, how do you want me to face the dead Lily?"

There was a trace of reproach in Snape's eyes. He never knew that Lucius was such a brainless person, and he could handle everything perfectly in the past.Ignoring the reproach in Snape's eyes, Lucius sneered and said, "You actually treat Miss Peverell like a child? Hehe..." When he said this, a slight smile escaped his lips, Lucius It felt like I heard a big joke from Snape's mouth. "Do you know what she was doing during this time?"

"What did you do?" Snape frowned deeply. "Lucius, what are you trying to say?"

"Do you know where Harry Potter lives now?" Lucius asked lightly.

"Isn't it his Muggle relatives..." After a pause, he looked at Lucius and said in a dry voice: "Is something wrong? Lucius, you'd better tell everything you know tell me."

"Harry Potter is now being raised by the Granger family, and he has perfectly separated from his Muggle relatives." Seeing the dazed and puzzled look in Snape's eyes, Lucius smiled and said, "Oh, don't be confused , is the Granger you think of, the parents of the Ravenclaw Miss Know-It-All, hehe, Miss Peverell has done a perfect job on this matter, I guess Dumbledore is still being deceived. Be in the drum."

"Why would she do that?" Snape wondered.

"Dumbledore really found a good relative for Harry Potter." He knew some things about Harry from Draco. That child had been kept by him for the past 11 years. Abusive Muggle relatives? Well, this is what Dumbledore said, their savior lived a happy princely life like a fairy tale?Is this when they are all easy to cheat?

Lucius didn't need to explain clearly, but Snape heard it clearly enough, he said with a cold face: "I still underestimated the old bee, he is really a big liar who is good at lying." Tightly, Snape wanted to jinx Dumbledore.

"Haven't you always believed in him blindly?" Lucius sneered.

"Don't say such disgusting things, Lucius, who blindly believes in him." Snape couldn't stand Lucius' words, believe in the old bee?Come on, if his head wasn't stuffed with slugs, and he wasn't passed out by Merlin's stinky socks, who would eat enough to believe in his most hated sweet tooth, the old bee?Back then, it was because of Lily that she asked him for help, but this time... Tsk, let those all go to hell! ! "I never trusted him."

"I can tell." Lucius shrugged.

"Those kids are back in the Muggle world now?" Snape asked.

"I just went back two days ago, hehe, you didn't see that Draco was very sad about Miss Peverell." Touching his chin, Lucius couldn't help it when he thought of his son's reluctant expression. want to laugh.

"They're good friends." Snape didn't see Draco's small thoughts at all.

After hearing what he said, the smile on the corner of Lucius' mouth deepened. "Hehe, friend? Severus, you are still so innocent. No matter how you look at it, Draco is secretly in love with Miss Peverell. How can you call him a friend?"

"What did you say?" Snape was taken aback, he seemed to have heard something wrong just now.

"I said Draco likes Miss Peverell." He wasn't shocked when he found out that Draco had that thought. It can bring a lot of positive benefits to the Malfoy family. Over the years, although the people in the Ministry of Magic have not said it, he also knows that those bastards hope that he will step down quickly and share the rich property of the Malfoy family by the way. Let those old bastards get their way.

Squinting his eyes, Lucius's eyes flashed a gleam of calculation.

Snape was completely stunned, he murmured: "This...how is it possible, Draco doesn't seem to..." As if thinking of something, Snape immediately stopped talking, he rubbed himself Between the eyebrows, a trace of fatigue crossed his face. "Lucius, are you sure Draco is sincere?"

After hearing Snape's words, Lucius was slightly dissatisfied, and said, "Severus, what do you mean by that? Isn't Draco worthy of your trust?"

"No, I didn't mean that." Snape smiled weakly. "I trust Draco, but he is still young, and he still doesn't understand what love is. I have already lost Lily, and I can't let Lily's child suffer any more... Lucius, I hope you can understand me "He didn't mean to disbelieve Draco, on the contrary, he felt that it was a good thing that Draco could take care of Linna, at least if there were any problems in the future, there would be Malfoy's guarantee, but he And afraid, as time goes by, Draco will gradually find that he doesn't really like Linna, it's just a hazy illusion of affection when he was young.

Looking at Snape's increasingly hollow eyes, Lucius sighed slightly in his heart. After so many years, he still couldn't forget that Mudblood named Lily Evans Potter, oh, wrong, it should be called more politely She is a Muggle wizard.Lucius didn't understand Snape's persistent and undying love. Even though he had a beautiful wife and a lovely son, he still couldn't understand that love was too illusory and meaningless, only a fool would understand it. Indulging in it, at this time Lucius would not have thought that one day in the near future, he would also be bound by this illusory feeling.

Time passed by quickly, and school started soon. Lena, Harry, and Hermione each received a yellow parchment envelope with green writing on it.Dumbledore found out about Harry leaving the Dursleys' house in this scorching hot August, a week before the start of school, but the other party was obviously not very angry. Apart from a few careless words, there was nothing Without any intention of reproach, she pursed her lips, and Linna folded the letter a few times and stuffed it into the envelope.

She has never had a good impression of Dumbledore, not now, and probably never will.

Taking out another piece of paper from the envelope with a list of new books for the second grade, Linna frowned deeply. "Lockhart?" Why are all the books this year related to Gilderoy Lockhart?Is he famous?

"Ghideroy Lockhart, an internationally renowned person and writer, a recipient of the Order of Merlin Third Class, an honorary member of the Anti-Dark Arts League, and a five-time winner of the Most Charming Smile Award from Wizard Weekly." Sitting next to Linna Hermione explained that they did not let their parents accompany them this time, but chose the three of them to go to Diagon Alley to buy books together.

After hearing Hermione's explanation, Linna said lightly, "Vase?"

"Pfft..." The word Linna made Hermione laugh, she patted Linna's shoulder, and said, "Oh, yes, your comparison is really apt, Linna, I really love you." Hug Lena, Hermione smiled very happily.

"Is that guy really a vase?" Seeing Hermione smiling so happily, Harry automatically imagined the image of Lockhart in his mind.

"In my eyes, he is just a talkative vase." Hermione said indifferently: "A man who is useless except for talking on paper is no different from a vase in my eyes. I know why I said that." Fortunately, her parents didn't go to Diagon Alley with them today to buy things for school, otherwise they would definitely be attracted by what Lockhart wrote, oh, wrong, probably attracted It will be the mother, after all, that person is quite influential among the middle-aged witches.

"It would be an honor to meet you." Harry smiled as he raised the book list in his hand.

"I don't know who this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher is. It's really unlucky to let us buy his book." Hermione puffed up her cheeks, especially dissatisfied.

"Okay, Hermione, don't be so unhappy, I just went to buy his books anyway, not live with him." Harry reached out and rubbed Hermione's head.

"Okay, okay, I really hope that we can buy the book this time smoothly."

Curling her lips and grunting, Hermione quickly changed the subject. After chatting with each other for a while, they got off the subway and headed to the Leaky Cauldron in front of Diagon Alley.
