Platinum Working Guys at Hotel California

"What's new, brothers."

As soon as Daniel entered the door, he opened his voice and said impatiently.He and Arthur Weasley walked quickly into the crowd and quickly became the center of attention.Everyone stopped chatting or arguing, quietly waiting for what the two of them would say next.

"Where is Sev?" Cindy sat up after being woken up, leaned forward and looked behind Daniel and Arthur for a while, and asked.

"The situation there seems to be very tense, maybe he will find an opportunity to come over later." Daniel replied.

Draco noticed that when Cindy mentioned Snape, except for Moody, old Tonya and Daniel, the expressions of the people around them were not very good.Ron, especially, jumped to his feet and protested almost immediately: "No! He can't come!"

"Keep your voice down! Your voice is too harsh!" said Hermione, frowning.But she just said such a sentence, which didn't stop Ron from continuing.

Daniel was stunned by Ron's sudden speech, and then replied: "He is our internal response for this operation..."

"Insider? Are you joking!" Ron blushed with anger, "Harry said that the person who killed Dumbledore was a black-haired adult wizard! And he managed to escape! This is very likely... "

"Now is not the time to talk about this," Moody changed the subject a little bluntly.He knew better than anyone that Dumbledore's death was the biggest lie of the century, so he subconsciously changed the topic, "Arthur, what happened to you?"

The interrupted Ron sat down angrily, snorting heavily to let everyone know his anger.And Moody's abnormal behavior made Hermione give him a strange look, but she didn't say anything.

Arthur sat down beside old Tonya, glanced at Draco, paused, and nodded awkwardly to him as a greeting.Then, he cleared his throat and said with a calm expression: "I'm afraid we will encounter a lot of trouble tomorrow, brothers."

"Don't be silly, and explain it clearly, Arthur." The short-tempered Moody urged impatiently.

"Snape sent a message. Although the mysterious man accurately received the false news we sent (Note 1), he still insisted on sending a large number of Death Eaters to patrol the sky of Privet Drive every day before Harry became an adult. " Arthur said with a look of hesitation, "I bet that the sudden change of Bius Diknis was also instigated by the mysterious person! (Note 2)"

"That's not surprising, is it," said old Tonya. "I mean a change in the Ministry of Magic—they've already been completely controlled by You-Know-Who, after all."

"Yes, but the mysterious man has no reason not to believe that false news." Daniel shook his head and said worriedly: "You see, although he has always been suspicious by nature and is a difficult opponent, he has never been like this time—— Snape said that he has been looking like he doesn't want to trust anyone recently. And..." Daniel glanced at Draco, hesitant to speak, and then quickly looked away.

Draco naturally noticed Daniel's unusual reaction, he straightened his back quickly, and asked, "Is it news about my parents, Daniel."

"Oh, yes, yes." Daniel said hesitantly, and at the same time looked at Arthur Weasley with some embarrassment, as if he was thinking about how to say the next words.

"What's wrong with them? Tell me, Daniel!" Livia asked anxiously before Draco could speak.

"Actually, we're just guessing," Arthur frowned, leaned over, and clasped his hands on his knees.He glanced at Draco, then moved his gaze to his fingers, and continued: "Snape said that the mysterious man took Lucius Malfoy's wand, and did not let the Malfoys participate in this The meeting about the Battle of the Sky - it looks like they've been left idle? So, we suspect..."

"...Maybe they were exposed." Draco said in a deep voice.

As soon as Draco's words came out, everyone fell into silence, and the atmosphere suddenly became dignified.

Everyone knew that after the Battle of the Astronomy Tower, all the powerful servants of the Mysterious Man were no longer around, and he had no reason not to reuse the Malfoys immediately.

Moody pondered for a while, then found another excuse to go back upstairs to his room, apparently to ask Dumbledore's opinion.

Cindy looked at Moody who was leaving in a hurry, and stroked his forehead helplessly. Mad-Eye's behavior of going back to his room at a critical moment did not arouse suspicion. She should praise Gryffindor for his innocence. Well, should we question their IQ?

Ron sneaked a few glances at Draco. Although this arrogant, disrespectful, calculating, and extremely talkative Malfoy was the person he hated the most at Hogwarts besides Snape, after all, they were Companions in the same boat.Ron moved his lips hesitantly, wondering if he should say something.This little lion, who was a bit reckless but innocent enough, scratched his head, deeply entangled.

Draco's expression turned cold all of a sudden, and he clenched his hands unconsciously.The behavior of the mysterious man is absolutely abnormal, but... Draco narrowed his eyes, almost subconsciously remembering Livia's "Draco" in Diagon Alley—if the mysterious man had joined the battle that day The personnel heard this, so the current situation is not surprising.

A pair of cool and soft hands quietly covered Draco's clenched hands, Draco turned his head and saw Livia's smiling face.

"Don't worry," Livia said with a smile. "This is just a guess, isn't it? I heard that Voldemort is a cruel and violent guy. If your parents are really exposed, he won't turn a blind eye."

Livia's words attracted the attention of everyone present, but she did not respond to the gazes of others, but looked at Draco firmly and softly with a smile.

After a long time, Draco sighed, relaxed his hands, leaned back on the chair, and said softly: "You are right." He smiled at Livia gratefully, and Livia smiled slightly. Moved closer to the distance between the two, and continued to hold Draco's left hand, as if wanting to give him more strength.

Livia's soft voice seemed to not only comfort Draco, the atmosphere in the room gradually thawed.

"Merlin," Ron seized the opportunity, frowned and made a funny tangled expression, and said, "Why do you call the mysterious man by his first name like Harry? Maybe you can give him a nickname or something ?”

"The great former President of the United States, Mr. Franklin Delano Roosevelt said, 'The only thing we have to fear is fear itself' (the only thing we have to fear is fear itself)," Livia said in a rare serious way, "so, don't be defeated by the enemy, Conquered by fear!"

"Oh, how smart my little Livia is!" Old Tonya seemed eager to hug Livia and take a bite. "That's true! You will definitely become a brave and qualified Gryffindor!"

As soon as the words came out, Old Tonya managed to see the subtle expressions of the three people in an instant——

【I will not admit that the girl who has a close personal relationship with Malfoy is a Gryffindor!In other words, they are still holding hands, isn't it true that they are dating? !The offspring of Merlin and Burns actually met a Slytherin! 】This is Ron who was frightened by his last guess, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

【No!I'm a Hufflepuff! =dish=+] This is Livia who is deeply impressed by the Hufflepuffs' knowledge of food.

【……dream! ] This is Draco who is inexplicably upset.

While the man was having his own thoughts, Moody's voice came from the stairs.

"Guys!" he said, "I've thought it through and we're going as planned." He limped down the stairs without compromising speed, his wooden leg thumping on the floor. Thumping sound.He trotted all the way back to his seat, sat down and took a breath, and continued: "After all, this seems to be the safest way now."

"[You] thought about it carefully?" Cindy snickered, she couldn't bear her bad taste.

"..." Moody was stunned for the first time, and blushed in embarrassment: "Don't make trouble!" He reprimanded.

But seeing Moody's rare appearance was not a good thing for everyone, and everyone turned their faces away silently—they really didn't want to see the smudge under the rotating false eye. flush.

"Okay," Old Tonya coughed feignedly, breaking the somewhat weird atmosphere, "Since it's a... decision, then we'll follow the original plan. Children, do you still remember your mission? Wes Lai's boys?"

"Let's go on broomsticks,"

"Fly to the east,"

"Take our little brother,"

"Follow our American brothers,"

"Have fun with those Death Eaters!"

"Very well, Fred and George, you must follow Daniel closely at that time, understand?" Old Tonya emphasized: "Did you hear that, Ron? Are you still awake?"

"I know!" Ron protested blushing, "Don't keep holding on to me!"

"Oh, we're just in case, young man." Daniel patted Ron on the shoulder and laughed. "Follow me, my wand and gun will protect you."

Old Tonya nodded and continued to tidy up: "Then what about you? Livia?"

"Me and Bill and Fleur go with Moody, Fleur and Bill ride the broom and I ride Moody's motorcycle."

"Let's go east, and the destination is Cindy's cabin." Livia added.

"Very well, remember, keep up with Moody." Old Tonya looked at Livia and said, "I'm sorry I can't accompany you, dear. But Fleur, Bill and Moody are all very good fighters." , they will take good care of you, don't be afraid, okay?"

"I will, Uncle Tonya," Livia smiled, "don't worry."

"And what about you, Hermione?"

"I'll go west on Hagrid's motorcycle, and Tonks and Remus will follow us on broomsticks. We can stop at Moody's cabin, Kingsley's place, Tonks' Muggle aunt's space." house."

"You remember it in great detail, that's good!" Old Tonya said with a smile, "Finally, Draco, you follow me, and we head north with Harry and Cindy, to Tonks' parents' house."

"Arthur and I have cast a whole dozen protection spells and concealment spells at each transit station, and Cindy's cabin is a bit far away, so I'll pick you up on the way, and Arthur will go directly to the Burrow to wait for you. added Kingsley. "Be careful."

"Anyway, keep yourself safe," said old Tonya, looking solemnly at every stern face, "no one likes death and parting - no one, if any of us dies like this, Harry will I will never forgive myself in my life. Don't be wary, our purpose is to transfer Harry, not to pay off the Death Eaters, understand?"

After finishing this long series of words, old Tonya let out a long breath and put on a smile again.He looked at the time and said, "It's lunch time, enjoy the delicious food, everyone."

"I don't need it," Cindy stood up, stretched his waist, waved his hands to everyone, and walked upstairs: "In order not to be so trapped that I smashed my whole face into the mushroom soup, I'd better fix it first." Sleep well."

Perhaps it was because the atmosphere just now was too serious, and the atmosphere at the table was also strangely quiet.Even Ron, who had always been a wolf, became gentle. He held a chicken leg in a daze for a while, and then stuffed the cold chicken leg into his mouth like waking up from a dream.

Draco, knife and fork in hand, watched amusedly as a spoon reached into his plate and scooped up the raw carrot puree he'd picked out and tossed aside.His eyes moved with the spoon, and he joked aloud as it was stuffed into Livia's mouth:

"If you like carrots, you can ask me." Draco put down the knife and fork, bent his finger and tapped Livia's forehead, "you don't have to eat it secretly like now."

"Oh..." Livia, who finally came back to her senses, took a big mouthful of raw carrot puree either to spit it out or to swallow it, her expression was quite exciting.

"Swallow it." Draco rolled his eyes gracefully, ordering in an impersonal cold voice.

"Uh...!" Livia choked her own neck, swallowed what was in her mouth with a wrinkled face, and took the drink that Draco mercifully handed her down in one gulp—

"puff--"

Lupine on the opposite side of the table stared at the unidentified red liquid dripping from the tip of his hair, and was stunned.

"Hahaha……"

"Hahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Begin rebelling against the teacher before even going to school,"

"We have to invite you to join the anti-hard education club, Livia."

"Hahahaha... Honey, are you okay hahahaha..."

The silent atmosphere on the table was instantly broken, and everyone's laughter almost knocked off the roof.Lupine helplessly cleaned himself up, changed the plate of clean food, and said dumbfoundingly, "At least I made you happy."

"...I'm sorry, Lupine." Livia said apologetically, and then put on a shy and angry expression, and growled at Draco: "You gave me carrot juice?!"

"Merlin testifies, I saw you stealing five tablespoons of raw carrot puree from my plate, so I kindly took care of your eating habits and gave you this." Draco laughed so hard that he was trembling while speaking, "You know, I'm sick of the smell of carrots."

"Bastard! Big bastard!" Livia roared and wanted to stand up.

Draco grabbed her and comforted her: "Okay, girl, don't be angry."

"Go away!" Livia puffed up.

"Although you have the right to leave the meeting angrily, I still have to remind you," Draco raised his eyebrows and said with a smirk, "Eating carrots or starving will not relieve your tension at all, the best way Just like him," Draco pointed with his chin to the deaf to everything around him, and continued to be in a daze - eating a chicken drumstick - Ron who was in a daze with a fixed rhythm, and continued: "Empty your mind, empty your stomach Eat well and get some sleep."

Livia pouted, shook off Draco's hand holding her arm, and picked up the knife and fork obediently.

"What a good and obedient girl," Draco knocked on the table, and the food in front of Livia's eyes immediately turned into freshly baked, steaming delicious food.He lowered his body and whispered in Livia's ear: "Don't think too much, although the crazy Auror with fake eyes has nothing to recommend him, his IQ is worrying, and his temper is grumpy because he has been single for too many years, but his fighting power is really good. Same as his ability to destroy food—absolutely destructive."

Livia followed Draco's line of sight, just in time to see Moody biting off half of a steak, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

She glanced at Draco and whispered: "Well, you have once again proved your essence - although you are a little bastard, you are still a good person."

Draco shrugged, expressing his noncommittal evaluation of Livia.He had enough time to watch Livia enjoy her lunch with relish, and said abruptly, "Is the mushroom sauce still to your liking? Or do you need me to replace it with carrot flavor?"

Livia almost choked to death on the steak in her mouth, endured it and gave Draco a middle finger.

After dinner, old Tonya called Draco and took him to Moody's room.

"Dumbledore wants to speak to you."

Moody handed the two-way mirror to Draco, and they went out with old Tonya.

Draco frowned imperceptibly, and lowered his head - Dumbledore's smiling face appeared in the small mirror.

"Good afternoon, Draco~" Dumbledore smiled.

"I don't think you just want to say good morning to me," Draco said. "Stop teasing the circle and just say it, Dumbledore."

"Oh, I do have something to discuss with you, but this does not prevent me from saying hello to the child I like," Dumbledore laughed, "Maybe you can try to put your guard down, Draco .”

"Then put away your hypocrisy, Dumbledore." Draco said irritably, "I ask again, what are you going to tell me?"

"Your appearance reminds me of Severus, and he also..." Dumbledore looked at Draco's obviously displeased expression, and cleverly changed the subject: "I want to ask you, maybe you Want to meet Lucius?"

Draco raised an eyebrow, showing a puzzled expression.

"Oh, that's right. Severus just sent me a message that Narcissa won't be participating in tomorrow's operation, but Lucius will be. I think you must miss him? Maybe I can help you Make an arrangement, and meet up for a short while in the chaos."

"Thank you for your concern," Draco smirked, "but I refuse."

"Don't worry, kid, I'll…"

"No, Dumbledore, I refuse." The smirk on Draco's face disappeared completely, and he said coldly, "You don't need to send me to my father to remind him not to change his mind temporarily, forget Your cooperation. My parents see the current situation more clearly than any of your subordinates. As long as you can guarantee our safety, we will not stop cooperating—or do you simply want to use us? Pawns we throw away when we run out?"

Dumbledore didn't seem to expect Draco to be so keen, he was taken aback for a moment, and then continued: "Of course not, my children, of course I will do my best to protect you..."

"Then the best chance to prove it has come," Draco interrupted Dumbledore again, this time with some urgency and concern in his tone, and said, "You should have heard that the mysterious man has recently treated the Malfoy family Unusual attitude, this is a very dangerous signal, Dumbledore."

"No, Draco. After all these years, Severus still hasn't been exposed. Lucius and Narcissa are safe, and sometimes Tom is not as smart as you think." Dumbledore said.

"Last time Livia called out my name in Diagon Alley," Draco stared at Dumbledore's eyes in the mirror, seeing Dumbledore gradually becoming serious as expected.

He continued, "I heard that the Death Eater, Anthony, was not arrested, but fled back. He must have heard it, and he will definitely report it to the mysterious man. The reason why he hasn't done anything yet is because my existence still exists." No exposure. But this is a time bomb, one day the mysterious people will completely suspect them, and then..."

Draco pursed his lips and paused, as if he didn't want to say those words himself. After a while, he continued: "That's the way it is. At this time, I can never meet them."

Dumbledore frowned and pondered for a while, then slowly said: "I see, son. Don't worry, I will ensure their safety. If there is any change, I will let old Tonya and Moody find a way Get your parents out. I want you to promise, child." Dumbledore promised seriously: "I want you to promise."

Hearing Dumbledore's words, Draco didn't answer immediately, but observed quietly, as if trying to discern the sincerity in the words of this old wizard who was good at manipulating people's hearts.

Finally, he frowned fiercely, and said with some hesitation: "I hope you won't let me down."

The author has something to say: Note 1: In the original book, the Order of the Phoenix revealed some false news to the Ministry of Magic: Harry Potter will not leave Privet Drive before the [-]th day.

Note 2: In the original book, the Order of the Phoenix originally planned to use the Floo network to transfer Harry, but the Minister of Magic changed his mind.Moody's original words in the original book are: "Beeusticnes changed his mind, and this gave us a big problem. Now this house is not allowed to connect to the Floo network, whether it is with Portkey, or Apparating in and out. It's supposed to keep that man who can't even mention his name from getting close to you. That's all nonsense in my opinion, your mother's magic is good enough. He did Those things keep you from getting out of here safely."
