44. Chapter 44

August 25th, the eve of the start of Hogwarts.

On this day, Diagon Alley was very lively, because Gilderoy Lockhart was holding an on-site autograph session.

Of course, because the school is approaching, parents and students are busy purchasing school supplies.

After Draco had lunch, he came to Diagon Alley.

He and Andrea wrote a letter every day during the summer vacation, so he made an appointment with the platinum girl to come to Diagon Alley today to buy school supplies.

The platinum boy sat by the window of the Florin Cold Drink Shop, ordered a serving of ice cream, sat quietly, watched the passers-by outside the window, and waited for the arrival of his little platinum princess.

In the last life, he and his father also came to Diagon Alley on this day to buy school supplies and deal with some dark magic items that were not suitable for home.

Perhaps, as far as his father is concerned, he also framed that poor red-haired Arthur Weasley by the way-because he was always going to his house to probe for dark magic supplies this summer vacation, which made him angry his father.

Andrea went to the manor in Germany in the middle of the summer vacation. She might not know about Arthur Weasley's visit, but for him who didn't like to run around very much during the vacation, he was very clear back then. Clear.

Therefore, he knew very well that if there were no accidents, his father would probably still use the Dark Lord's diary this year.

Of course, he really hoped that there would be surprises - and hoped that Severus Snape wouldn't disappoint him.

However, the probability of this hope is not high, so he still has to rely on himself.

Not long after Draco waited, Andrea and Lucius appeared in Diagon Alley.

As soon as the platinum boy saw them appear, he stood up, put a gold Galleon on the table, and left Florin's Cold Drink Shop.

Draco bowed gracefully to Lucius: "Mr. Malfoy, good afternoon."

Lucius was in a normal mood at first, but when he saw Draco, he immediately changed into a bad mood.

Why did you see this bastard again?

——He didn't know at all that his daughter had an appointment with someone.

The platinum aristocrat calmed down quickly and nodded with a smile: "Good afternoon."

{Cool cat release}

A hint of sadness flickered in Draco's gray eyes.

He still couldn't understand why Lucius didn't like him.

Andrea didn't see anything wrong between her father and her friend, she felt that two months without seeing Draco was like two years, and she approached Draco happily, more than Comparing the heights of the two, he said, "Draco, you seem to have grown taller."

Draco grudgingly collected himself, trying to look natural and happy.

"Really? I think I've grown taller too."

"Have you been here long?"

"It's not long, I just arrived too."

"..."

"..."

The corners of Lucius' eyes twitched violently. Seeing his precious daughter having a happy conversation with that bastard of unknown origin, he had to interrupt: "Baby, Dad has something to do later, so we Go shopping first. After school starts, you have a lot of time for reminiscing about the old days."

Andrea came back to her senses, feeling a little embarrassed—her behavior just now was actually quite unladylike.

Luckily, it was with Dad - it was good Mom wasn't.

"Dad, Draco and I made an appointment to go shopping together. If you have something to do, you can do it first." She raised her left hand, turned a sapphire ring on her little finger, and said with a smile: "I'm done shopping, I can Use the Portkey to go home, don't worry about mine."

Lucius was so stuffed in his chest that he almost couldn't vomit.

Can he say something like, I'm worried that you're with this bastard?

Of course not.

When he didn't want to startle the snake, he couldn't say anything in front of Andrea.

When he glanced at Draco sharply, hoping that the other party would be more interesting, Draco did not respond.

In fact, it's not that he didn't respond, but that he also has his own plans.

He knew that Lucius' so-called business was to go to Knockturn Alley to deal with dark magic items that were not suitable for keeping at home.Thinking about it, because Andrea is a girl, it is not suitable to take her there.However, Andrea is a child with strong curiosity. If she finds out, he will probably make a fuss with her. Therefore, his father hopes to take Andrea to buy things quickly, and then pack her back home. Home, go to Knockturn Alley.

However, he hoped that in Diagon Alley—especially after he met the red-haired poor man's house, he would always be by Lucius' side and prevent him from leaking the Dark Lord's diary.

Therefore, he could only pretend not to know: "Mr. Malfoy, I will take good care of Andrea."

Go to Knockturn Alley, do what you want, and let me follow you all the time!

Lucius was once again choked with chest tightness. He was actually rejected by his daughter—oh, plus a son he didn't even know about.

He thought about it for a while, and felt that Draco would not do anything to his precious daughter in front of everyone, so he left after admonishing her.

After Lucius left, Andrea and Draco went to buy school supplies.

There was a huge crowd of people in front of Lihen Bookstore, and a large banner was pulled out upstairs: Gilderoy Lockhart signed and sold his autobiography "I Can Be Magical", 12:30-4:30 pm today.

It turns out that Lockhart's signing will be held today.

Andrea widened her eyes and said angrily, "Why did we choose to buy things today? Oh, this liar is so popular."

Draco blinked, and said mysteriously: "It's okay, we don't need to squeeze, and we don't need to queue."

"Do you have a good idea?"

"Of course!"

Just when Andrea wanted to ask Draco what he could do, a handsome boy with brown hair squeezed out of the crowd in front of him.

Seeing Draco, Brandon came over quickly, took out two sets of shrunken books from his pocket and handed them to Draco, and said angrily: "Don't tell me, you just arrived, you don't even have time to wait pay."

The platinum girl blinked, looked at Brandon's blue robe, which was squeezed into a mess, and said nothing.

Draco smirked: "Of course not, we've been waiting here for a long time. Thank you so much."

Brandon seemed to feel better, and returned a smirk: "This sounds comfortable. Well, I still have something to buy, so I'll talk about it when school starts."

Andrea watched Brandon leaving, and couldn't help laughing; "I see."

She had always found Brandon's position odd.

When he first started school, he even came to test her, as if he wanted to stand on her side, but soon he calmed down.However, before she asked Draco to help, he repeatedly spoke for her in the chief meeting, which made her feel very strange.

It turned out that he was Draco's man.

The two quickly bought all the school supplies.

Draco waved his hawthorn wand and checked the time - 15:32.

This time is neither too early nor too late.

However, Lucius hadn't come out of Knockturn Alley yet.

Should he send Andrea back to Malfoy Manor first, then return to stare at his father?

After thinking for a moment, Draco decided to send Andrea back to Malfoy Manor first: "Andrea, I'll take you home first."

"I don't want to go back. Dad should still be working, and my mother is not at home. I'm bored at home alone! Let's go shopping for a while?" Andrea looked left and right, and sighed in disappointment: "Oh , there is nothing to do in Diagon Alley, I am tired of shopping.”

Draco also didn't have the obsession to let Andrea go home, so he suggested, "Then let's find ice cream at Florin's Cold Drink Shop?"

"I don't really want to eat." Andrea was still looking left and right, and then fixed her gaze on the dark alley next to an unremarkable toy store on the right.

She pulled Draco's sleeve, looked at him with bright gray eyes expectantly, and said a little nervously and excitedly: "Draco, shall we go to Knockturn Alley?"

The author has something to say: Xiaolong, do you want to take your sister to Knockturn Alley?
