Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

No matter how much inside information is hidden behind Helen, this is not the most important thing right now.Maca spent so much time and energy this time, and even paid a certain price, so that he successfully appeared at this point in time. He was not here to listen to Helen's story.

At the moment, he still has things waiting for him to complete. In order to satisfy himself with the final outcome, he must focus his attention again and completely transform the rule rune annotations obtained from the Monument of Bewitching into his own knowledge. .

After a short break, he ignored Helen's questioning and threw himself on the pages of the notebook.

And during the time he was immersed in research, Dumbledore's public funeral was approaching one day again.Hogwarts and the village of Hogsmeade, not far from the castle, also gradually welcomed batch after batch of guests, and everything they saw was crowded.

Funerals are always a heavy group activity.Even if the people who came may not always come to mourn, once you are in this kind of occasion, you will be more or less affected by the change in atmosphere.

For example, the young master of the Malfoy family, who has become more and more low-key in recent years, is the most typical of them.

The world often says that the family atmosphere often brings changes to children, and the nature of parents often influences their children's way of doing things in a subtle way.

But this is based on the premise that the child's worldview has not yet formed, and the ability of independent judgment is still insufficient.

In the past, Draco was indeed influenced by his parents a lot, especially his horrible father Lucius. He usually puts his own interests first and is a full speculator.

Perhaps many people in the magical world believed that Lucius Malfoy came to Voldemort because he supported the pure-blood supremacy theory.But in fact, what he cares about is not the interests of pure blood, but the interests of his Malfoy family alone.

However, whether it was the original Dumbledore and Voldemort, or the later Maca and Voldemort, where is the place between them so good?

With such a father who is not capable but not small in heart, Draco's pressure is really not small.

However, things like stress can sometimes crush people, and sometimes they can grow.

When Voldemort forced Lucius to stand on his side, Malfoy's house never felt peaceful.With the recent fierce battle between the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters, and with the drastic reduction of Voldemort's manpower time and time again, Lucius also had to stand on the front line against the Order of the Phoenix.

Yes, it is true to say "struggle".

Voldemort frustrated Maca's plan several times, which led to his declining reputation. He, who was already inadequate in power, was already somewhat stretched to do things.And he didn't want to easily send the Black Death, after all, if there were no Black Death, he really didn't dare to appear in front of Maca at will.

Because of this, Lucius, who originally paid more than he did, has recently been forced to go to the streets and alleys to show off.

But for a character like Lucius, how can Voldemort, who hasn't been confused yet?As a result, Draco and his mother Narcissa faintly became a hostage.

For example, this Christmas holiday, Draco would see the crazy woman Bellatrix as soon as he got home.That woman not only has a consistently surly and vicious personality, but also has a good magical power. She almost used a heartbreaking curse on him last time!

Occasionally, only occasionally, occasionally Voldemort would go to Malfoy's house for a day or two.Although Voldemort was handsome, he was gentle in words and deeds even when he saw him.But Draco was not a fool. How could he not know that this seemingly kind fellow was actually a dark lord who didn't blink?

In this environment, Draco quickly taught himself the skills of observing words without a teacher, and he became more low-key on weekdays.Of course, he could not go back to that home as much as possible.

Not long after Christmas,

It is sad to think about it, precisely because his dad has been a turf for a while, so that now his Malfoy's house is not human.In school, the students of the other three colleges would not give him a good face; at home, Voldemort and Bellatrix made him fear all day.

This kind of life is really difficult!

However, just as he secretly opened the door of his house, he heard a sudden voice behind him, which made him froze.

"Draco, it's just over Christmas, and the holidays are still long! Where are you going?"

Just listen to the voice and know that it is the old woman Bellatrix, Voldemort's most loyal follower!

"I...I want to go to Diagon Alley and find Mr. Ollivander to check the wand..." Draco immediately forced himself to calm down and pressed his right hand holding the box with his left hand. "Since the last time I practiced magic After the curse, it has not been quite right."

It's a pity that both his hands are trembling now, no matter which hand he presses, he can't hold it down.

"Oh? I don't think it's a question of the piercing curse," Bellatrix wobbled to Draco's side as if dancing. "Or, actually, your wand prefers Imperius. curse?"

The experience of being imprisoned in Azkaban for a long time made this crazy witch even more uncommon, and would often make exaggerated behaviors on her own.In her own words, this is dancing to the glory of the host, but it is a sign of insanity in any way.

"No, it's not about the curse... I think... the killing curse would be more beautiful."

With them, these dark wizards, after a long time, I understood how to talk.With that answer, Bellatrix seemed more comfortable-at least Draco felt so.

Sure enough, the mad woman laughed wildly, the laughter was like a vulture in the wilderness seeing a corpse, but with inexplicable joy in the sharp ears.

After Draco followed Bellatrix and laughed dryly for a while, he tightened the suitcase in his hand and put away the unknown smile slightly.

"...Well, Miss Black...may I go now?" Draco knew that calling her by Bellatrix's family name would sometimes make her happier, for example, her husband does not When I was there, "When I change to a stronger wand, I will be able to see the more painful expressions of others...that...that must feel very sweet."

"Oh?"

Bellatrix looked him up and down with a look of "you kid finally got the hang of it", and then smiled louder.

"Yes! Hahaha...Yes, when we see the enemy wailing at our feet in pain, it is the moment we enjoy the most! Sweet, indeed sweet! Ahahaha..."

Seeing the mad woman couldn't stop laughing, Draco looked around secretly, already trying to take a step towards the door.The mad woman obviously saw it, but she didn't stop it--it seems hopeful to escape today!

But who knows, when he turned around and wanted to go, another voice made him stop again, and he didn't even dare to move.

"What's wrong with the wand?" the gentle voice said softly, "It's better to go to Ollivander... Maybe I can take a look for you, Draco."

It's Voldemort!Oh no... it should be... the Dark Lord!

"I……"

In an instant, he realized who the owner of this voice was.At the same time, a chill rushed from the soles of his feet to his back, and went down the spine to his scalp.

For a while, he couldn't even tell the excuse he had prepared.

"Draco, are you really going to Diagon Alley?" Voldemort slowly walked out of the corridor beside the hall, and asked softly, "Since you are going to Diagon Alley, why not use the fireplace?"

When Draco heard it, his heart trembled suddenly.Yes!Why doesn't he use Floo fans?Even if the line connecting their home to Hogsmeade is broken, he can go to Diagon Alley first and turn there?

Now that he is running directly outside, isn't it obvious to make people suspicious?

Draco, who was regretting his stupidity, couldn't say a word.

"Do you want to go back to Hogwarts?" Voldemort paced up to Draco, looking at him with a calm face, his eyes with dark flames fixed on Draco's. Binocular, "It's a rare Christmas holiday now...you are gone, will your mother be very sad?"

Hearing Voldemort's words, Draco tightened his lips and lowered his eyes slightly.

Although his mother Narcissa Malfoy is usually very arrogant, she is full of pampering when she is with this son.To be honest, she may not be a qualified mother, but she is still a mother who loves her child deeply.

Just a few days ago, when Bellatrix wanted to give Draco a "Christmas gift", it was Narcissa who prevented it from happening.Otherwise, it would feel like going on with the curse... I'm afraid Draco will never forget this Christmas this year in his life.

"Dark Lord, you are right...I'm not going anywhere." Draco lowered his head slightly, dullly.

However, Voldemort watched him ponder for a moment, causing Draco's heart to lift up again.Seeing the Dark Lord not speaking, he was obviously more flustered, for fear that he would lose his life if he didn't pay attention.

Just staying at home for a few days, he has witnessed the moment of death several times.Now that he can still stand here, it is already very difficult.

"No, you can go..." At this moment, Voldemort said suddenly, "You not only want to go, but you also have to show up at Dumbledore's funeral, understand?"
