[Comprehensive] The Wizard and the Fugitive

No matter how unwilling she was, Hermione had to admit that Ron's words made sense, and she wouldn't provoke Petrovich to solve Malfoy's trouble and cause even more trouble for herself.

"Okay, we'll leave after the game." Hermione finally said, "Who's going to tell Harry?"

Ron shrugged indifferently: "Whatever, as long as Malfoy's case is hopeful to be retried, he will be happy to go back early."

"Malfoy!" Hermione almost gritted her teeth and said, "I really don't understand why Harry insists on holding on to Malfoy!"

Ron looked at her amusedly: "I've always wanted to ask this, my dear, why do you have to hold on to Malfoy?"

"I have my reasons." Hermione frowned and could only answer simply.She couldn't explain to Ron, who grew up in the wizarding world, how many problems Slytherin's long-term control of the Ministry of Magic and King Gallon would bring to Britain, and she could only find a way to solve it.But now it seems that Draco Malfoy has finally made a move. The exchange condition he proposed - the Arctic Circle route, can indeed bring considerable benefits. Helping a large number of unemployed wizards.For the current Malfoy family, it was just a chicken rib that looked valuable but had no ability to operate at all.Draco had nothing to lose, but forced her to have no choice but to accept the deal for the sake of the British wizards.

Seeing that Hermione was unwilling to say more, Ron sighed helplessly: "Although I really don't know much, if you need someone to talk to, I'm always here, okay?"

"I see." Hermione finally nodded after being defeated by Ron's serious expression.

……

The Quidditch World Cup has entered the final countdown, and the decisive battle is approaching. The entire competition area is full of enthusiastic expectations from wizards.The bonfire burned until midnight, and fans could be heard shouting at dawn.

In the last few days, William found a place in the tent area, took Draco out of Bryggen, bought an ordinary small tent to live in, and lived next to the fanatical fans.Seeing those same young wizards full of enthusiasm every day, Draco felt a lot more relaxed in his heart, which was getting tired from one chaos after another, and he got acquainted with them in less than a day.

On the day of the finals, before the sun had risen, Draco woke up from his sleep, dazedly pushed William's arm away from him, and struggled to sit up.

For the first time in months he woke up with William still in bed, lying peacefully on his side beside him, his amber eyes closed, looking more harmless than he had been during the day.

Draco's brain hadn't turned on when he just got up, and he stared blankly at William's sleeping face for a long time, until he was pulled over by the other party and fell into a firm embrace.

"Don't stare at me so early in the morning." William closed his eyes and hugged him tightly, speaking in a muffled voice, his body moved suggestively.

Draco felt something poking at him, his face went red, he pushed him away and jumped to the other side of the bed: "When did you wake up?"

"About a minute ago." William rubbed his forehead, not used to feeling sleepy early in the morning.Draco had already started to change clothes, William waved his hands, and the light in the air gave him a headache and Shen Jin said: "It's not yet dawn."

"I can't sleep anymore." Draco said, he walked around the bed neatly, leaned over and kissed William on the lips: "Go ahead and rest, I'll go out for a walk."

There was something wrong with such a morning... William squinted his eyes and sat up. He didn't bother to change his clothes, so he simply wore a pair of pajama pants and walked into the kitchen with his upper body bare.

Breakfast was ready when Draco came back, and the young men who were chatting and laughing with him stopped at the door, glanced into the tent inadvertently, and saw William setting the table.

"Who's that?" a girl asked, her eyes glued to William's abs.

Draco raised the corner of his mouth: "My fiancé."

"Oh—" the girl curled her lips regretfully: "You are really lucky."

"I'm also very lucky." William said with a smile, and Draco turned around and saw that he had already walked over, and opened the curtain to wait for him.

Several young people pushed and shoved, and left with great interest, leaving room for the fiancé couple. Before leaving, they even winked at Draco, which was full of teasing.

"New friend?" William waited for the boy to come in and lowered the curtain.

Draco nodded indifferently: "It's sort of." If it wasn't because Malfoy needed to change his image, he wouldn't be bothered wasting time with a group of innocent older babies.Thinking this way, he completely ignored that less than a year ago, he himself was once a "naive older baby".

The two of them had breakfast, and as the wizards who were generally over-excited went to the arena today, they entered through the dedicated passage of the high-rise box, and just missed Daphne Greengrass who was hovering at the entrance.

Greenglass and the others have had a bad time these two days. Mr. Greenglass has not recovered, and as William said, he has become a shameful person.Even so, the middle-aged man still insisted that Malfoy was simply bluffing.What "the Malfoy family hasn't fallen yet", isn't it because of being next to Schiller!

He hadn't seen Draco's current magic, and didn't know that the young Malfoy never asked William's help when it came to Slytherin matters.After Astoria brought back the news of William's identity, he was envious of Malfoy's good luck, and he was one step away from doom, and he could turn the situation around.

On the day of the finals, Mr. Greengrass's face was still a piece of a jigsaw puzzle, bleeding profusely.Fear finally overcame his few rationality and fear, and he sent Daphne to the Quidditch World Cup area that he had been avoiding, hoping to find William.Since Draco Malfoy can rely on the marriage to get the backing of Schiller, why can't Greenglass?Besides, physically, his daughter was born with an advantage.

Daphne went to the arena according to her father's request, and lingered at the door for a long time without seeing William and Draco.Because of her lack of interest in Quidditch, even when the Greengrass family was still in the UK, she never thought about watching the live version of the World Cup. There are dedicated channels.

When the three of Bryce arrived, they saw her from a distance, and they knew who they came for without thinking about it. The three of them didn't want to participate in the punishment given by William, so they silently bypassed Daphne, and soon disappeared in the dedicated passage.

"Good day, everyone."

When they opened the door and entered the box, Draco was busy adjusting the binoculars and said hello without raising his head.The man next to him didn't look very energetic today, he just gave them a light look.

"Daphne is outside." Pansy said with an unhappy face after sitting down.

Draco raised his eyebrows: "I thought Greenglass wouldn't be on the field."

"Guess what it's for." Blaise sneered, just about to tease a few words about the golden sign of Schiller's house, when he saw William staring at him with a flat expression, he swallowed the words again.

Players from both sides entered the arena, and the stands were boiling. The explosion-like cheers pulled William out of the empty state, and his eyes, which had been unconsciously resting on Blaise, moved to the field.

The Bulgarian team made it all the way to the final, where they faced Italy.As a Bulgarian fan, Marcus almost put all his Galleons on them before the game started, and now he stood up to cheer for them.

"What are your plans after the game?" Blaise asked Draco, sitting aside a little to avoid Marcus' loud voice.

"Alan Schiller is getting engaged. He is the person in power. William and I must go." Thinking of the upcoming flight, Draco said in a good mood. The smoke cleared.

"To Schiller's house?" Blaise raised his eyebrows, looking at Draco with interest, obviously implying something.

"No! I won't bring you with me." Draco said immediately, emphasizing his tone and said seriously: "There won't be any good results that day. You'd better not get involved with anyone."

Pansy heard their conversation, and came over with a gossiping face: "Why do you say that? Is there any inside news?"

Draco raised the corner of his mouth and said deliberately: "Temporarily keep it secret, you will know when the time comes."
