Chapter 77

After getting the things in his hands, Dumbledore made a decisive decision and turned around to leave.Of course, he brought Alberta and Draco who followed.

The three of them who returned to the edge of Hogwarts walked slowly towards the castle against the darkness.

Draco asked as he walked, "Another Horcrux, isn't it?"

Dumbledore took a deep look at Alberta and replied, "I'm afraid so, Mr. Malfoy."

Draco pursed his lips and said, "...what will happen?"

Alberta gave him a strange look. She had introduced Horcruxes to them before, and she mentioned the dangers of Horcruxes. Now, Draco asked Dumbledore again what his intention was.

Dumbledore chuckled twice, and said when he was almost at the castle, "I think Mr. Big Malfoy should be able to tell about the changes in Voldemort over the years..."

Draco kept his mouth shut this time and said nothing more.

Alberta reacted.Draco was expressing his inclination very cryptically this time, not on Voldemort's side, nor would he get too close to Dumbledore.But Dumbledore is hoping that this is not Draco's idea, but the idea of ​​Lucius Malfoy, the head of Malfoy.

Thinking about it this way, Alberta felt a little sorry for Draco.In her mind, Draco has always been a tsundere little kid who would lift his chin, glance at people with those gray-blue eyes, and say "my dad" without swearing, and say "Mudblood" "It's as good as the sky.But now, without her knowing, he has learned to consider his family and carefully hide his thoughts, which makes Alberta a little sad.

So, when she stepped into Hogwarts Castle, she reached out and squeezed Draco's hand hanging by her side, and smiled at him reassuringly.

Draco couldn't get out of the great ecstasy until he walked back to his dormitory.But after he sat on the bed and rested for a while, there was a knock on the door.

Draco waved his wand, and the numbers that appeared in midair told him that it was already past two o'clock in the morning.

"Draco, it's me." The knock on the door stopped, but Draco's familiar voice came.

Although he felt sleepy, he still insisted on getting up and opening the door.

Blaise walked away and entered Draco's bedroom.

"What's the matter?" Draco asked in a bad tone.

Blaise looked at him with a smile and said, "Of course there is something."

"Then speak quickly."

"Did you go out with Alberta at night?"

Draco was taken aback for a moment, and immediately realized: "Did you see it?"

"That's natural. And I also helped you say a lot of good things in front of Pansy." As he said this, the expression on Blaise's face was very wet, and Draco couldn't help thinking about it. Punch up.

Draco sank his back into the soft sofa, half-closed his eyes, and said: "...It is true. But, it's not just going out with Alberta. It's just..."

"Just what?" Blaise asked after him.

Draco didn't look at Blaise, his gray-blue eyes looked a little hazy under the firelight of the fireplace: "She... just touched my hand."

When Blaise heard it, he was stunned: "It's just touching your hand! It's not that I promised you and became your girlfriend!"

"How did you know! This is the first time she touched me with that emotion!"

"What emotion?"

This time, Draco stopped talking, but glared at Blaise with the eyes of "Why don't you go, I'm going to sleep".Although Blaise wanted to continue to inquire about the news, but after thinking about the current time, he decided to let Draco go and left his dormitory.

Draco didn't wake up until almost noon the next day.Fortunately, he didn't have class in the morning, which was of course one of the reasons why Draco went out with Alberta yesterday.

After he packed up and walked out of the dormitory, he saw Blaise and Pansy who were obviously waiting for him in the common room.He glanced around casually, and asked, "Where's Alberta?"

Pan Xi looked at him with a half-smile: "Your Highness naturally has something to do. It's not like you who sleep until this time before getting up."

Choked by Pansy, Draco, no matter how stupid he was, knew that Pansy was venting his anger, so he turned his attention to Blaise: "What happened?"

"That old woman Umbridge called Alberta away," Brace said in a low voice.

Draco frowned, and before he could ask, Blaise knew what he meant: "Isn't it because of Alberta's identity? Mixed race, you know. That old woman Umbridge thought she could handle it." What's the matter?"

"Oh." Draco smiled instead of anger, "According to what she meant, so does the dean."

"Keep your voice down." After Pansy stopped Draco, he looked around with his eyes, for fear that Draco's words would be heard by others.

"What?" Draco frowned even tighter.

Seeing that something was wrong, Blaise pulled Draco and Pansy out.

The three of them found an empty classroom and cast a bunch of spells before sitting down.

"Tell me, what happened?" Draco was a little puzzled. He just slept for a while, why does it feel like the sky is going to change?

Blaise smiled wryly and handed Draco a newspaper.

Draco reached out to take it, and glanced at it casually, but was immediately attracted by the photo on the front page.He is very familiar with the content of the photo, or it is strange that he is not familiar with it - it is a photo of him going out with Alberta and Dumbledore last night, looking at the background, it is in that unknown house, just There is a problem with the shooting angle, only Alberta and Dumbledore are on the screen.

And the title is also very suitable for the photo - "Dumbledore moves again, the home of the half-blood camp".

Draco read it patiently, but the more he read it, the angrier he became, and the two hands holding the newspaper became tighter and tighter, almost tearing the edge of the newspaper.But he still had a sliver of reason and looked at the writer.And the person who wrote this report was Skeeter, who had made a lot of noise before.

"Isn't this woman already ruined by her reputation?" Draco naturally remembered this person, and Alberta's rare anger was due to this witch.

Blaise hooked the corners of his lips, showing a sneer: "People are very forgetful, Draco, don't you know?"

"Umbridge must have known about this, so he sent His Highness there!"

Draco and Blaise knew it without Pansy's telling.It's just that right now, there's nothing they can do.After all, on the surface, Umbridge is a professor sent by the Ministry of Magic, and they are students of Hogwarts.Even if they went to Professor Snape, they didn't have any definite evidence to prove it.

After a while, Blaise finally said: "Go back first. I don't know when Alberta will go back."

Afraid of missing Alberta, Draco and the others withdrew the pile of spells before heading to the common room.However, just halfway there, I bumped into Alberta.

"Are you okay?" Draco asked eagerly, taking a few steps forward.

Alberta shook her head and asked them, "Have you finished your lunch?"

"Not yet. Worried about you, so..." Blaise shrugged and replied.

Alberta hooked the corners of her lips and said, "Go together?"

Pansy grabbed Alberta's arm and said, "That's natural." Pansy even sent Draco a provocative look from a place that Alberta couldn't see.

Blaise was happy to watch the excitement, it was like a scene of robbing favors, he really enjoyed watching it.

When they arrived at the auditorium, Neil leaned over and asked what had happened.Even Harry and Hermione, who were on the Gryffindor long table, had worried looks.

Alberta could only smile, comforting the two of them from the air.

On the other hand, Dumbledore, who was sitting at the staff table, was still eating his lunch with a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened.

Alberta had to admire Dumbledore's composure, but Draco and Pansy were not very happy after seeing Dumbledore's appearance.

"If it wasn't because of you..." Draco naturally knew what happened last night, and if it wasn't for Alberta's action, Dumbledore might not know what would have happened.

And Pansy is even more straightforward: "This old bee!"

But Alberta's mind is no longer on this.Some people have doubted Skeeter's Animagus form before, and now I look at it carefully, I am afraid that the article in it is deep.In order to ensure that this kind of thing does not happen again, Alberta feels that it is really necessary to find out what Skeeter's Animagus form is!

After lunch, Alberta did not go back to the cellar immediately, but turned a corner and went to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, there were hundreds of house-elves.House-elves are less likely to be noticed than wizards.Before, Regulus Black was able to replace one of Voldemort's Horcruxes because of this misunderstanding.

"Dobby!" Alberta called a name.

Immediately, a house-elf came to Alberta. "Dobby is here! What are your orders?"

"Dobby, this matter is very important, so important that Harry has something to do with it." Hearing what Alberta said, Dobby immediately focused his attention, staring at it with his tennis-ball-sized eyes. With Alberta. "Skeeter, I don't know what her Animagus form is like. I want you to keep staring at her to determine her Animagus form. I want to know, what kind of way did she go through?" There is no way to get so much information, including the nonsense to Harry at the Triwizard Tournament."

"Dobby will definitely complete the task! Please rest assured, Miss Mayne!" Dobby heard that it really had something to do with Harry, and his reply was shrill and loud.

"Well. I hope Dobby can discover Skeeter's secret as soon as possible, so that Harry will be safer." After saying this, Alberta left the kitchen.

The next few days seemed to be calm and nothing happened.

Until the third night, Dobby appeared in Alberta's bedroom with a snap.

"Dobby, did you find out?"

"Yes! Dobby has completed Miss Mayne's mission! Mr. Harry Potter will no longer be harmed!" Dobby replied like this, and then reported everything he found.

Only then did Alberta know that Skeeter's Animagus form is a flying insect, and it is this small and inconspicuous flying insect that allows Skeeter to enter various places and obtain various information.Not only that, but Dobby discovered the communication between Umbridge and Skeeter.

However, Skeeter is not too stupid.What happened that night, she concealed the existence of Draco, and only told Umbridge that it was Alberta and Dumbledore who went to a certain cabin and took away a coin with a strong black magic smell inside. ring.

"...she...she said that there...there is...a mysterious person..." Dobby trembled and couldn't continue.

Alberta comforted it and said, "Don't worry. Harry is safe. Dumbledore will find a way to destroy that ring."

Dobby was so excited that he almost shed tears. After he sniffed hard, he said, "Miss Mayne is a very good person! Is there anything I can tell Dobby to do in the future!"

With a snap, Dobby disappeared into Alberta's bedroom.

Alberta lowered her eyes, and after a while, she chuckled lightly and walked towards the door.Now that she knows what Skeeter is relying on, she destroys it!

At this time, Draco was doing homework in his dormitory.They have a lot of homework in the fifth grade, one paper after another.When Alberta knocked on the door and went in, she happened to see the reference books and parchment that Draco had messily placed on the table.

Draco also noticed her sight, his face flushed, he waved his wand pretending to be calm, and tidied up these things, then turned around and looked at Alberta: "What's the matter? "

Alberta didn't mention what happened just now, and said why she came: "Skeeter's Animagus confirmed it. It's a flying insect."

"I'm going to find someone to reveal this?"

Alberta nodded, and did not continue the topic: "How about studying? Do you need me to tutor you?"

Draco immediately understood that Alberta was joking about his behavior just now, and wanted to refuse, but really didn't want to give up such a good opportunity, so he pursed his lips and said, "Master, I give you this opportunity."

"Pfft." Alberta couldn't help laughing, but soon she waved her hand to signal Draco not to care.

"Alberta!" Draco said through gritted teeth.

Knowing that if it continued, Draco would definitely blow up his hair badly, so Alberta had no choice but to stop. "Okay, stop teasing you. When will it be done?"

"Tomorrow will be fine." When it came to business, Draco returned to normal.

After getting the time, Alberta said good night and left Draco's bedroom.

The next day, everyone who had breakfast in the auditorium received the "Daily Prophet" from the owl.

And on the front page of the newspaper, it was impressively reported that Skeeter violated the Animagus.

For a while, the audience was in an uproar.

And Alberta bent the corners of her mouth, smiling very calmly.After swallowing her last sip, she thought: it's time to go to Dumbledore

The author has something to say: I’m sorry, I went out to watch a movie with my best friend yesterday, and then I also ate dinner outside, so I came home late_(:3」∠)_

To make it up, to the film review I wrote yesterday:

After watching "The Crisis"

Also, I applied for the list which starts next Thursday.In the days when there is no list, I am too decadent (although it is also due to the exhaustion of work).The update request of the list can at least urge me to code.

Oh, and, my mother asked me, I wrote and wrote, when will I finish writing.Then I calculated, according to my current speed, it will be finished in mid-to-late September.At that time, there will be an article about Wangwang colleagues mentioned before, Niwang BG.Then, in October, I will start the second chapter of this article (probably this is what it means?), which is the story after the end of this article, about Blaise’s daughter (I have already thought about the name of the little girl! It’s called Miranda!) .I'll post the link anyway ^_^
