Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

“You look more like a Malfoy now than I do.” Lucius said slipperily.

“Thank you, Mr. Malfoy, but unlike you, I think I still have principles and a bottom line.” Ivan replied.

“The cage of the self-righteous! Lucius said with disdain," It's Dumbledore again, some worthless residue, and he influences you too deeply, Mason, and those things bind you, and they make you hypocritical. Believe me, if you abandon those, you will have more extraordinary achievements and more power. Though your origins are poor, you are indeed a rare magical genius, and with the support of the Malfoy family you will succeed. ”

“Success? You don't want to support me in my campaign for Minister of Magic, do you, Mr. Malfoy?” Ivan smiled and asked back, "The joke was not funny at all, but surprised me. I never thought that the pureblood wizard family would be open to such an extent that they would support a wizard from Muggle. ”

“It's not blood, it's here, Mason!” Lucius lifted his right hand and lightened his head slightly, "the Malfoy family continues to do so because we only work with smart people to create win-win situations together. Unfortunately, there are so many fools in the world that we don't have many choices. You can think about this suggestion, and perhaps we can work more closely together when the opportunity is ripe. ”

“If your cooperation presupposes that I give up the principles and the bottom line, I can only say I'm sorry.” In fact, I think Professor Dumbledore's philosophy is still very good and deserves to be sustained, "Ivan said. ”

“That's too bad, the conversation just now made me think you're a smart guy. ”

“We have different understandings of intelligence, and you seem to have a deep misunderstanding of me, Mr. Malfoy, which is not good. Evan solemnly said," I've been here a long time, and yet our conversation has not progressed substantively. You're consuming my patience, which is a stupid attempt, not at all like Malfoy's. Before my patience runs out, I repeat, and I hope this is the last time you need to understand that I'm not trying to cooperate with you, and we're having this conversation here because we share a common purpose. Because of your past stupidity, Malfoy happened to be with us, and that's why I'm here today, that's all. ”

A moment of silence, Lucius' face paled again.

He started talking again and his voice seemed more authentic.

“Well, for that damn common purpose. Tell me, what can you offer Malfoy if I agree to your request? ”

“There is only one commitment.” Ivan said.

“What promise?” Lucius frowned and asked, "He doesn't like the way Ivan talks.

He's been walking by the boy's nose, which he didn't want.

“As soon as we can, we can keep Draco safe. ”

“Is that all?!” Lucius asked, somewhat dissatisfied.

What do you mean, you can do everything you can, shouldn't you?

“These are enough, and while we are not afraid of death, there is indeed hope only if we live.” Ivan said.

“Living is the most important thing, but I don't understand, what you say is as powerful as you can...”

“What you need is not a false promise, Mr. Malfoy, but not a higher level of lies than anyone else.” Ivan asks back, "Do you think this commitment would be realistic if I told you that whatever happens, I can keep Draco safe and keep him alive from death? ”

“If I pay, I deserve a reward equal to the value of the risk.” Lucius said slowly that the expression on his face was distorted by too much force, because the distortion seemed a little sluggish, "Mason, you should know better, what it means to betray the Dark Lord...”

“That's something you should think about.” Ivan replied with a steady tone.

Lucius shook his head, seemingly rejecting something completely different from what he had just persuaded Ivan to do.

“You have been stranded in this estate, Mr. Malfoy, and you have a lot to lose sight of the current situation and the situation of the Malfoy family. I suggest you think carefully about what the Dark Head should do next time he gives Draco another death mission? And what will you do in the final showdown? Or what do you do when the Dark Head completes that Dark Magic to kill all living spirits? ”

“Dark Demon King's Magic...” Lucius seemed instantly crushed, looking aimlessly at the ceiling, mumbling, “What is that magic? ”

“It's the same thing you should figure out and then tell me.” Ivan shook his head.

“I don't know much, he doesn't trust anybody, and it's hard for us to pry into his secret. ”

“I know!” Ivan said, "I don't expect much from you, but at least tell me where Harry might be? ”

“I don't know, we've been trying to catch Harry Potter, but he...”

“He was just inside your house, brought to you by Dobby the Pokémon. You have never faced the magic of raising the Pokémon, of course you know nothing about it.” Ivan impatiently said, "He went to your secret room, the one with the wormtail, and now you know it. ”

“That's where the Weasley boys are being held. ”

“You mean Ron? He's under the control of the Dark Head?” Ivan asked, "The two of them are no longer there. ”

“It can't be phantom shaping, the entire estate has been controlled, except for the magic of the Dark Lord himself...” Lucius said, noting Dobby hiding behind Evan, "and of course the magic of that lowlife traitor behind you, which is indeed our negligence, but no elf in the family dares to take anyone away without an order except the traitor behind you. Well, I guess it's the door key, and the information I got was that that Weasley was leaving today. I thought someone would pick him up, and now it looks like the Dark Lord must have left him a door key. ”

“Where would that door key take Harry and Ron? ”

“I don't know, nobody knows what the Dark Lord is going to let that Weasley do, just as almost nobody can figure out what he's going to do. Lucius said," But let me guess, they have a good chance of going to the Black Witch, where they are digging for the ruins left by the Gate of Death. ”

“That place is...”

“The Ministry of Magic initially discovered the Gate of Death, the territory of the Ravenclaw family in the past, a deserted place.” Lucius said, leaning forward, "It was said to have been a beautiful lake a thousand years ago, but it had already dried up, and now we are more used to calling it the place of death...”
