Dark Lord, please let go

Draco once again sat in the box of the Hogwarts Express, but this time there was one more person beside him, besides Tom, Kassim and Devlin, there was also a first-year freshman - Alphard Black.

At the moment before the Hogwarts Express drove, Alphard was thrown into this box by his sister Walburga, and she let Alphard make new friends under the name.But in Draco's view, Walburga just asked himself and Tom to help her take care of her younger brother who hadn't yet entered school, so that Walburga could chat with her group of friends, at least Walburga didn't know anything about it. I didn't notice that there were already four people sitting in this box. Although Alphard came in and it wasn't particularly crowded, the box obviously exceeded the usual capacity.

The boy had neatly combed short black hair and was wearing a black velvet school gown. Although it was the first time he knew Draco and the others, he was not at all restrained.He greeted several seniors generously, and then sat beside Devlin.

He stared at Tom with those beautiful brown eyes for a long time before asking, "Are you Senior Tom Riddle?"

Tom obviously didn't expect the boy to ask himself, he put down the book in his hand, squinted his eyes and nodded, "I'm Tom Riddle, and you're Walburga's younger brother Alphard, right?"

Alphard didn't expect Tom to know his name, his face was a little red, "Oh, yes, it's a pleasure to meet you Senior Riddle, my sister often mentions you at home, saying that your grades are the best in the grade of."

"Your name is Alphard Black?" Draco squinted his gray-blue eyes and thought for a while before remembering that there really was such a person in the Black family, but in the end he was expelled from the Black family. Specifically Draco didn't know why, it just piqued his interest even more.Why was this boy with a straightforward personality expelled from the family?

"Yes, you are Senior Malfoy, right? My sister said that Senior Riddle has a good friend who is Malfoy. The relationship between you is very close. As long as you see Tom, you will be able to see you by his side."

"...I'll take that as a compliment." Draco pursed his lips, "A compliment to my friendship with Tom."

What Draco is awkward Tom knows very well, it is normal for Draco to be dissatisfied with the incidental product after mentioning Tom, Tom chuckled and stuffed a pack of chocolate frogs into Draco's arms , to appease Draco's dissatisfaction.

First-year freshmen must go to the castle by boat, which has been a tradition for many years. After the arrival of the Hogwarts Express, Alphard said goodbye to the four of them, and followed Ogg, the hunting ground guard, surrounded by a bunch of Freshman, ready to go to the castle by boat.

It was an overcast September day, and though it hadn't rained, the cold air kept creeping into the cloak.

"Oh, it's really cold. I'm so glad that only the first graders need to take the boat, otherwise I will freeze to death." Devlin complained, looking at Alphard's back.

"We should go too, hurry up." Tom drew out his wand and cast a warming spell on the four of them, then pulled Draco towards the carriage.Except that they need to take a boat in the first year, they have to take a carriage to Hogwarts Castle at the beginning of each semester.

"What's wrong with you Draco?"

Draco stopped abruptly, his eyes fixed on the front of the carriage. Unlike 60 years later, there were really a few strange-looking magical creatures tied to the front of the carriage.And 60 years later, there are horses and horses in front of the carriage, and only those who have seen death can see the Thestrals.Draco originally thought that the carriages at Hogwarts 60 years ago were also pulled by thestrals. He also did a lot of mental construction, hoping that the moment he saw thestrals, he would not lose his composure. After all, he saw his own thestrals. Friend Crabbe died in front of him.

"Draco?" Tom raised his eyebrows, pulling Draco's hand slightly, "What are you looking at? We're going to be late."

Seeing that the two did not follow, Kasim and Devlin also stopped, Kasim rolled his eyes, and urged: "Hey, gentlemen, it's time to go, the weather is so cold, I really want to go immediately." Sitting at the Slytherin table drinking lemon tea."

"It's nothing." Draco seemed to have just come back to his senses. He once again looked at the strange creature tied in front of the carriage and pulled the cart, and followed Tom into the carriage.

"You've been in a daze since just before you got in the car, aren't you feeling well Draco?" Tom frowned and looked at Draco's pale face, then reached out and touched Draco's forehead, "I don't have a fever, But I think you'd better go to the infirmary after the school feast, you don't look very well."

"It's nothing, it's just... a little cold." Draco forced himself to smirk, but that expression was uglier than crying.

Kasim and Devlin in the same carriage finally noticed something was wrong with Draco.

"Oh, didn't you have a good rest? Draco." Devlin looked at Draco's face worriedly, "You should sleep on the train, it's all because Kassim dragged you to play wizard chess .”

Kasim wanted to yell at Devlin, what does this have to do with me?But he held back and just gave Devlin a big white eye.

"Before arriving at the castle, you have to rest for a while." Tom pressed his head on his shoulder without Draco's refusal, and then drew out his wand and cast a warming spell on Draco, "We will arrive at the castle in a while." will call you."

Draco closed his eyes obediently. Although he didn't see the Thestrals, he still thought of his classmate Vincent Crabbe, the good friend who had been following behind him the moment he got into the car.In fact, in the beginning, Draco never regarded Crabbe as a true friend. He and Goyle were more like his followers than close friends.He never cared about Crabbe, and would order Crabbe and Goyle to do everything.It wasn't until Crabbe was burned to death in the sea of ​​fire that Draco realized that Crabbe and Goyle were his friends, just like Zabini and Pansy.

But this time, Draco will never allow his friend to die in the sea of ​​fire. Even if the future is difficult to change, the Dark Lord is still the Dark Lord, and he will definitely rescue Crabbe.

The school opening banquet was still the same as usual. Watching a group of first-year freshmen perform the sorting ceremony, Alphard successfully entered Slytherin. At the same time, a girl named Irene Prince was also sorted into Slytherin.

Draco remembered the black-haired girl at a glance, because she looked so similar to Professor Snape.With the same thin figure and short shoulder-length black hair, she glanced coldly at the classmates on the long table, and finally sat at the end of the long Slytherin table.Prince is not very eye-catching, nor is he good-looking.

"Prince...is it a pure-blood family?" Draco looked up at his grandfather Abraxas, "I seem to have heard someone say that the collection of books of the Prince family is comparable to that of Ravenclaw."

"Who did you hear about Draco?" Abraxas cut the food on the plate gracefully, without giving Draco a look, "You should care about your second-year courses, not those headaches Extracurricular books."

Draco shrugged casually, he just thought that the girl might be Professor Snape's mother, they even had similar personalities.

"You're concerned about a freshman, and it's a girl." Kasim touched Draco's arm, "Don't tell me you like this type?"

"...Shut up, Kasim, and focus on your dinner."

There was nothing special about the time after that, until the end of the whole school opening banquet.

Draco and Tom returned to their dormitory, their luggage was placed by their respective beds, and even Draco's new pet was placed there.

"Aren't you going to give your little pet a name?" Tom asked while packing his luggage, pointing to Draco's somewhat weak mongoose.

Draco stopped packing his luggage for a moment, he looked at some malnourished little mongooses in the cage, and suddenly felt a little unbearable.He didn't really want to keep any pets, especially since there was a poisonous snake in the dormitory, but he couldn't refuse to the Malfoys, so he bought this little mongoose. "I'll consider giving it a name."

After speaking, Draco released the little mongoose from the cage. The little guy was obviously terrified. He was still shaking when he was placed on the ground, and he didn't even move a bit. His dark eyes kept looking at Draco. division.

Draco frowned, thinking that this little guy might really not be able to support him, and how unhealthy he looked, he waved his hand impatiently, "Go and play."

The mongoose remained motionless, and Draco didn't bother with it after that, continuing to pack until he heard Adil hiss.Draco turned his head and saw Tom's pet Adil lying on the carpet, wagging his tail to play with his pet mongoose, and the unhealthy-looking little mongoose followed Adil's tail with its paws.

"...It seems that your pet gets along well with Adil." This satisfied Tom. When Draco bought the mongoose, Tom was once worried about Adil's safety. After all, the mongoose is the natural enemy of snakes. But now it seems that this little mongoose has no such consciousness at all, and even regards Adil as a companion.

Draco raised the corner of his mouth, and replied without interest, "Maybe you can raise them together, anyway, you already have Adil, and you don't mind feeding one more."

"This is your pet, Draco." Tom picked Adil off the carpet and hissed, "Adil, this is Draco's pet. '

'Oh, Tom, the little one is so weak that he is not well looked after. '

Tom patted Adil on the head with a smile, and put her back on the carpet again. The little mongoose had been staring at Adil in Tom's hand just now, as if Tom had snatched away its friend.
