Hogwarts starts with stealing power

Draco heard what Lin Xia meant.

He had taken the heir course of the Malfoy family and was also aware of some family struggles.

As a noble family in the wizarding world, the Malfoy family has never lacked internal struggles.

Draco thought for a while and said, "Let's take the magic bus to the village first, and then go through the village to Malfoy Manor. I'll take some life-saving things from the manor."

Lin Xia thought for a while: "Can we ask a bodyguard to escort us to the collateral family?"

Draco frowned: "Bodyguard?"

Wizards are more solitary and like to act alone. They rarely act in groups unless they have a very good relationship.

But overall, wizards are more serious, restrained, and cold.

He has been in the Muggle world and heard the word "bodyguard", but he never thought that it could be used in the wizarding world.

On the contrary, Harry and Hermione, who have always lived in the Muggle world, immediately heard what Lin Xia meant.

Hermione asked excitedly, "Can we arrange bodyguards?"

Harry thought they were going to a very special place and needed bodyguards.

Ron didn't quite understand the word and asked Harry what "bodyguard" meant.

After hearing Harry's explanation, Ron seemed very excited and thought it was so cool!

But at the same time, he also had a little worry and asked in return:

"Lin Xia, is this too much? Are we going to a dangerous place?"

Lin Xia glanced at Malfoy, who was also hesitating.

Lin Xia said slowly: "It's better to be prepared than to be afraid of a thousand. I want to ask bodyguards to escort us, just in case.

The collateral family we went to this time, although they are all members of the Malfoy family, seem to respect Draco, the orthodox young master.

But from the fact that he can sell the house elves that have been passed down from generation to generation to other families, it can be seen that this collateral family attaches great importance to interests.

I think as long as the interests reach a certain level, they may have other thoughts about Draco.

The Malfoy family cannot be without an heir forever. If Draco dies..."

Lin Xia paused and didn't continue.

The innocent little wizards have vaguely understood what she meant.

Draco said seriously: "When we get to Malfoy Manor, I will apply to my father."

Wizards are not cabbages.

Every powerful wizard is very arrogant.

Although Draco is the heir of the Malfoy family, he is too young and is only a second-year student at Hogwarts.

If he waits until he reaches adulthood and goes out to dominate the Ministry of Magic or the wizarding political world, perhaps with his status, he can apply for a powerful bodyguard for protection.

Then when he reaches adulthood, he may not need wizard protection and can protect himself.

About an hour later.

Everyone came to another village, borrowed the fireplace inside, and used the Floo network to teleport.

Malfoy repeatedly reminded them to pronounce the words and never make a mistake.

Once they make a mistake, they will be teleported to another place and may not be able to come back.

The little wizard practiced several times, walked into the fireplace one by one, and threw the powder in his hand to the ground:

"Malfoy Manor!"

It was as magical as time and space flowing backwards and the stars shifting.

The next second, when they opened their eyes, they had already arrived at a magnificent and very gorgeous manor.

Draco's mother Narcissa was already waiting on the side.

Narcissa couldn't help but screamed excitedly when she saw De'Aco and Lin Xia.

She first looked at Draco and hugged him.

"Child, I was very surprised when I received the message that you were going to come to the manor via Floo Network at home. I thought you were joking with me to have a nice weekend, but I didn't expect you to actually come."

"Oh, and you, Lin Xia." Narcissa looked at her happily and hugged her.

"Although I don't know why Draco came back on the weekend, I have a hunch that this must be your idea, right?"

Lin Xia smiled slightly and didn't answer.

No explanation means tacit agreement.

Aunt Narcissa shook her body happily, "I knew it, I knew it would be like this..."

She glared at Draco with some resentment, "This kid is as heartless as his father. Once he gets serious about doing things, he is not the kind of person who will come home."

Speaking of this, she couldn't help but sigh: "It's better to have a daughter who is caring. If I had a daughter like you, it would be great."

Lin Xia smiled again.

She took the initiative to introduce the other three friends to Aunt Narcissa.

At first, Aunt Narcissa just nodded to them politely, looking a little arrogant.

When she heard the name Ron Weasley, the corner of her mouth twitched.

She seemed to be trying her best to restrain herself from showing a mean and vicious face.

Lin Xia finally said: "Aunt, they are all my laboratory partners. They participated in the research and development of [Natural Wand] and [Guardian Button] with me. They are my indispensable left and right arms."

Aunt Narcissa frowned slightly. She heard the meaning of Lin Xia's words.

She restrained her arrogance on her face and greeted the other little wizards.

"Hello, welcome to Malfoy Manor."

"Gaseppe, where are you, Gaseppe?" Narcissa shouted loudly.

A house elf wearing a butler's uniform suddenly appeared in front of them, bowed politely to everyone, and then said to Narcissa:

"Dear Master, Gaseppe is at your service. What are your orders?"

Harry, Hermione and Ron all looked at Gaseppe in surprise.

This was the first time they had seen a house elf with this appearance.

Although Gaseppe is a slave, he is well dressed and has a pair of glasses hanging on his nose, just like a butler in the Muggle world.

Narcissa said: "Please entertain them. Oh, by the way, arrange a room for everyone. They will stay at Malfoy Manor tonight."

Lin Xia said at this time: "Aunt Narcissa, we are just passing through Malfoy Manor and coming back to get some things. We have no intention of living there."

Aunt Narcissa smiled softly, this smile was a little careless, with an unquestionable rejection.

"Lin Xia, since you have come to Malfoy Manor, you must stay. The Malfoy family will entertain every guest who comes."

Harry felt a little uncomfortable, but felt that what he said was fine.

Only later did he understand why he felt uncomfortable hearing what Narcissa said today.

Because everything from her words to her tone carried a condescending tone.

Even their stay in the manor seemed like a charity.

Draco frowned and was about to say something when suddenly Narcissa turned her head and glanced at him.

"Son, when the news that you were going to use the Floo Network to return to the manor came to me, I investigated your recent correspondence records and probably guessed what you were going to do."

She said slowly, word by word: "I will not restrict you, I am not as pedantic as your father, I will only protect you in the greenhouse.

There are many things that I think you should have seen before. In this regard, Lin Xia has done much better than you.

So, can you stay at Malfoy Manor tonight and listen to my old mother's advice? "

Draco was startled and couldn't help turning his head to look at Lin Xia.

Lin Xia nodded to him silently.

Ever since, apart from Lin Xia who understood the situation, and Draco who was a little confused.

The other three people, who were even more confused, were inexplicably left as guests at Malfoy Manor.

Gaseppe arranged a room for them and disappeared.

Ron looked around and touched the furnishings in the room from time to time, feeling both excited and cautious.

"I've seen this statue in the newspaper. It's said that the asking price is 10,000 gold galleons, and it's a statue with a broken arm and a broken shape."

He touched it carefully and said in amazement:

“At that time, I was thinking about someone who would take advantage of me and buy this statue, but I didn’t expect to see it here.

Draco, I heard that the Malfoy family is very rich, but I didn't expect it to be really rich. "

Draco said expressionlessly: "The carpet you are stepping on is a carpet imported from Persia. It is said that it is specially customized for the royal family and costs 1,000 gold galleons.

The cabinet where the statue you caress is made of yew and is more expensive than the statue, costing twelve thousand gold galleons.

There are also overhead lamps, murals in the room, and various small ornaments. Each item is worth no less than five hundred gold galleons, and the most expensive ones reach tens of thousands of gold galleons. "

Draco paused, twitched the corner of his mouth, and said with a ruthless and sarcastic smile:

"Ron, since you entered the room, every step you take and every air you breathe smells like money."

Ron:…

Draco left the room immediately after settling them. He needed to ask his mother something.

After he left, Ron breathed a sigh of relief, turned to Harry and said wordlessly:

"Did I offend him in some way? What I said is all the truth!"

Lin Xia doesn't need to answer this point, Hermione can answer:

"Of course you offended him. You said that his family spent 10,000 gold galleons to buy a broken statue, and you said that the Malfoy family was taken advantage of."

Hermione paused and continued: "Ron, although I don't like Draco's condescending expression, it is exactly the same as his mother.

However, what you said before is indeed wrong and makes people angry.

We are now guests at Malfoy Manor, so you can't restrain yourself and don't reveal your true feelings so frankly.

You said it was okay in front of Draco, but how embarrassing would it be if you said it in front of his mother? "

Lin Xia agreed and said, "Even if you say it in front of Aunt Narcissa, I won't be able to remedy it.

But if you said that in front of Uncle Lucius, he would probably kick you out of the manor immediately.

Aunt Narcissa would sell me a favor, but Uncle Lucius might not. "

Ron was scolded by the two and shrugged a little innocently, and couldn't help but look at Harry.

Harry whispered: "Although, I think what they two said makes sense."

"Also, Ron, I think I should clarify something."

Lin Xia said slowly: "The Malfoy family will not spend so much money to buy a useless item for no reason."

She looked at the statue: "Let's talk about this dilapidated broken-arm statue. You only see that it is incomplete, but it is a protected rare object.

When the house is invaded by outsiders, the statue will emit a death ray that is difficult to avoid. "

Lin Xia looked down at the blanket again: "There is also the blanket under our feet. It not only has the function of automatic cleaning, but also provides a soft and comfortable experience.

You take off your shoes and step on it, and the fluff on the blanket will automatically massage your toes.

If you lie on the blanket, you can enjoy a full body massage spa to relieve fatigue and stress."

She mentioned the lights used in this house again.

"The chandelier is also a wonder. The light it emits can make people more focused."

Lin Xia concluded: "Although I sometimes think that the price of these wonders is terribly expensive.

But compared to its practicality, these functions are more precious in the eyes of pure-blood nobles."

"In addition," she paused, "Not only Malfoy Manor, but even my family, basically all the items used are wonders with additional functions."

Ron was completely speechless.

At first, he was quite fortunate that this room was relatively large and everyone could have a bed.

You can still see each other when you sleep at night, and you feel at ease.

But now.

He just wanted to find an empty house, get in, and bury himself.

Lin Xia didn't plan to keep the atmosphere silent for too long. She looked down at her magic watch and said:

"We will stay here for another half an hour, then leave the room and go to the living room for dinner."

Ron whispered, "Can I not go?"

Hermione asked back, "Why don't you just walk out of Malfoy Manor now?"

Ron: "Let's go--"

Lin Xia said lightly, "The manor is located in a remote area, and there are magical creatures nearby.

Although the danger level is not as high as the Forbidden Forest, if you are not familiar with the surrounding routes, I suggest you don't go out.

Especially at night, it will be very dangerous. By the way, there are several Whomping Willows near the manor, and they often mix with ordinary trees."

Ron choked and his face turned red.

Lin Xia left for a short while.

Hermione glared at Ron, turned around and packed her luggage, and threw out Ron and Harry's luggage as well.

During the summer vacation, she taught herself the traceless stretching spell, which made it very convenient for her to go out. She could shrink all her luggage and put it in her pocket.

Ron looked at Harry, and Harry patted his shoulder helplessly.

He felt that Ron was sometimes braver than him.

At least he would not say what he wanted to say directly to Lin Xia and Draco.

Everything in Malfoy Manor made him feel a little depressed.

Harry looked around.

At first, he was attracted by the paintings hanging on the wall.

Suddenly, a portrait spoke to him, and the portrait also had platinum hair.

This is the symbol of the Malfoy family.

"I haven't seen other little wizards come in for a long time. I smell the smell of pure blood. Which family are you from?"
