demon hunter at hogwarts

Chapter 132 Bought

Accompanied by this lazy, drawn-out voice, a slightly pale Draco Malfoy walked into the store.

Lucius Malfoy, wearing exquisite black robes with silver buttons and holding the iconic snake staff, followed him.

Apparently a lot of people knew Lucius Malfoy, and most of them didn't want to offend him.

So the parents immediately pulled their children aside to give the Malfoy and his son the best seats so that they could watch Nimbus 2000 up close.

Narcissa, who looked arrogant, was a few steps behind and entered the store behind the father and son.

Apparently she wasn't too interested in Quidditch or broomsticks.

"Listen, Draco, you have to be selected for your college's representative team first." Lucius was still persuading Draco with "serious words", "But that is for your second year. In a century, there has been no Freshmen can join the House Quidditch team. However, if you are not selected in your second year, I will be very disappointed, that would be too shameful..."

His words were interrupted.

"Hey, let me see who this is." Sirius saw the Malfoys and his son, "Lucius, what are you doing here?"

"There is no need to inform you of what I am willing to do." Lucius said slowly, "What about you? Oh... I think I understand. You haven't had a good stroll on the street in so many years. This No wonder.”

"I can go wherever I want, no one can stop me." Sirius said without giving up, "But today, I am buying a birthday present for Harry...Salesperson, please bring us a handful That broom."

The direction of his finger was clearly the Nimbus 2000 placed in the most conspicuous place in the display window.

Immediately there were whispers all around.

This latest broom on the market represents the highest standard of craftsmanship at present, and it is not cheap.

Most little wizards only go to this store to satisfy their eyes. In the past week, only three brooms have been sold.

When the salesman heard about the business opportunity, he immediately ran into the store's warehouse and took out a brand new broomstick.

When Harry held the mahogany handle of the broom and ran his fingers across the golden words "Nimbus 2000" printed on the top, a circle of envious eyes immediately surrounded him.

Sirius looked at Lucius and his son provocatively.

Sure enough, Draco immediately became anxious when he saw that Harry actually got the broomstick.

"Didn't you say that Snape is your friend? I will definitely join Slytherin. When the time comes, can't you just write him a letter and let me join the Slytherin Quidditch team?" Draco dragged him Lucius held the cane in his arm and spoke faster, "The rules are set by people, of course we can change them... Even the bad boy can get a broom, but he can't fly, so he will definitely not be able to join the college team... …”

"Actually, I can fly." Harry couldn't help but retort after hearing Draco's words.

When he was a guest at Ron's house, he once ran to the broom shed with Ron and played on the Weasley family's old broom, and was pleasantly surprised to find that he was extremely talented in flying.

"Harry could fly before he could walk..." Sirius proudly showed off to Lucius, but Lucius's face became paler, and he clenched the snake staff tightly in his left hand, his joints cracking. The muscles on his face trembled stiffly, obviously trying to maintain his demeanor.

At the same time, in a quieter corner of the store, Regulus was chatting with Narcissa, and the atmosphere was much more harmonious than where Sirius and Lucius were.

The wizards in the store were all watching the excitement over there, and no one paid attention to Regulus.

"We just went to Borgin's and Burke's shop and sold some things." Narcissa said with some worry. "Cornelly Fudge may have been on the wrong nerve recently. The Ministry of Magic has decided to conduct a large-scale search of all wizards. Do you have any collection of black magic at home?

"They have no right to do this." Hearing this, Regulus sounded a little dissatisfied, "Maybe it's to get some money? You should be able to settle it with money, right?"

Basically, every ancient pure-blood family that has lasted for hundreds of years will have a few collections related to black magic. If the Ministry of Magic does this, it will undoubtedly offend a large number of pure-blood families.

Unless Fudge feels that he has secured his position as Minister of Magic and wants to use this incident to give those pure-blood families a hard time so that they will not dare to interfere too unscrupulously in the affairs of the Ministry of Magic. However, this speculation does not mean that Regulus I wasn't ready to explain it clearly to Narcissa.

"This is the case in most cases, but Lucius feels that instead of spending a large sum of money every year to cover it up, it is better to do it once and for all. Anyway, those things are not of much use." Narcissa said lightly, " He has been in a bad mood recently. You know, there has been little progress in the Triwizard Tournament. He spent a lot of money on it, and now it seems that it will be wasted."

"What's going on? Nott and Avery were at your house before, so I didn't ask any more questions." Regulus asked, "Are they also involved in this matter?"

"They just want to ask Lucius how to deal with the things in their own home." Narcissa said disdainfully, "The collection of their two families is nothing at all. The Ministry of Magic probably doesn't care about it. The main problem lies in Regarding Karkaroff, do you know his identity?"

Regulus nodded. Of course he knew that a few years ago, Igor Karkaroff was a prisoner and a Death Eater awaiting trial. According to what he learned, Karkaroff was a prisoner through Selling out one's own comrades to exonerate oneself is an even greater taboo.

At the very least, Karkaroff's reputation has been completely ruined both by the Ministry of Magic and the Death Eaters.

It is strange enough that such a person became the principal of Durmstrang in just a few years.

"Lucius has contributed a lot to his ability to become the principal of Durmstrang." Narcissa said, "So in the past few years, Lucius's words still had some weight with him. But this time He didn't know what evil was possessed, and he rejected Lucius's proposal very rudely, leaving Lucius very passive."

"Did he get some news?" Regulus asked tentatively. "From Karkaroff's perspective, he must be cautious about everything because there are too many people who want his life. .”

"I don't know if Karkaroff got wind of it or not. But some of Lucius's recent actions make me feel like something is about to happen..." The worry in Narcissa's tone became more intense, "But I don't Know who to trust, his friends...you know that. You are no longer teaching at Hogwarts, so I can only ask Severus to help look after Draco. Severus, he..."

"In the past year, Snape has really changed my mind. In my impression, he is a lonely guy who is obsessed with magic and potions..." Regulus said fairly, "And now, for Slytherin, For the students of the college, he can be considered a good dean."

"In short, nothing must happen to Draco..." Narcissa looked at her husband and son, but frowned.

Over there, Sirius and Lucius stared at each other. Lucius had already pulled out his wand, while Sirius had his hands in his pockets, looking contemptuous.

"Blake, you are such an insufferable guy." Lucius gritted his teeth and said, "If this was not in a public place, I would definitely teach you a lesson and tell you what politeness is."

"What, do you want to fight?" Sirius licked his lips and said, "I haven't done anything for a long time and I'm just bored... But when did you become such a public-minded guy?"

Harry looked at his godfather worriedly, while Draco looked at the Nimbus 2000 in Harry's hand with complicated eyes.

He obviously couldn't accept that he lost to Harry in a place like this.

"dad……"

"Shut up, Draco..." Lucius choked back Draco's words with a stern look, then stared at the clerk and said viciously: "Isn't it Nimbus 2000? Give it to me too. Come here!"

The clerk immediately got back into the warehouse using skills that were swifter than a seeker's.

Narcissa heard Lucius's words and immediately left Regulus behind and strode to her husband's side.

"Are you crazy? Draco can't bring a broom to school!"

"How can I, Lucius Malfoy's son, not be as good as this...this..." Lucius pointed at Harry, searching for an adjective, "...Anyway, you have to listen to me this time. ! I have decided to buy this broom, and I will contact Snape immediately when I get back and ask him to properly resolve this matter!"

Narcissa glared hard at her cousin who had been removed from the family tree, while Sirius smiled evilly and looked at them indifferently.

Soon, the clerk came back with a broom, and at Lucius's signal, handed the broom to Draco.

After getting his wish, Draco became the one in the best mood among the Malfoy family of three, and all his attention was focused on his newly acquired Nimbus 2000.

"Let's go." Finally, Lucius inserted the wand back into his cane, turned around and left the Quidditch boutique. Narcissa nodded to Regulus and pulled Draco to follow him. .

"What a coward, I thought he would do something." Sirius stared at Lucius's retreating figure and said disdainfully, "But looking at Sissy's expression, poor Lucius, I'm afraid he won't be able to come back tonight. Sleeping in the bedroom.”

"What?" Harry asked strangely after hearing this.

"Kid, don't ask." Sirius rubbed Harry's head lovingly, "However, if you let me know that you lost to Draco in the game, I will consider taking back this gift. Yes, do you understand?"

"Of course not!" Harry tightened his grip on the broom handle, his green eyes full of determination.

Harry's preschool shopping came back with a full load.

"Harry, take out your wand and show us." As soon as he returned to No. 12 Grimmauld Place, Sirius encouraged him enthusiastically and said to Regulus in a show-off manner: " You didn't see Harry try on the wands. I bet Ollivander has never seen such a picky customer. Harry tried almost every wand in his shop..."

"What material is it made of?" Regulus was also a little curious.

"Holly wood, phoenix feathers, eleven inches long, flexible... an extraordinary combination..." Sirius imitated the erratic tone of the wand maker, Mr. Ollivander, and said seriously, "Harry is destined to use this A wand, because its brother gave him the scar... yes, thirteen and a half inches long, yew..."

"So, you have been tricked by Ollivander." Regulus couldn't help laughing. "He remembered all the wands he sold and knew that Harry was destined to use this one, but he still let you try them all. All the wands in the store..."

Sirius' expression hardened.

"Why is he doing this?" Harry placed the cage containing the snowy owl on the windowsill, opened the cage, and the snowy owl immediately flew out of the window.

"Maybe it's just a little prank, just like Dumbledore loves to eat sweets. Everyone has to have their own quirks." Regulus speculated, "It's also possible that he was taking advantage of people trying the wand to observe the wand. reaction. In order to improve your craftsmanship... Do you still remember what the first wand he asked you to try was made of? "

"Who can remember this? It's been too long..." Sirius said, "It seems to be made of beech wood. I forgot what the core is..."

"Is this the one?" Regulus took out his wand and handed it to Sirius.

"It seems..." Sirius held the wand, looked at it carefully for a moment, and said uncertainly.

"The first wand Ollivander tested for everyone was this one." Regulus said, "It wasn't until last year, when I went to get a new wand, that he discovered that I had a certain fate with this wand... …”

"So, we unknowingly became Ollivander's voluntary testers?" Sirius glared with gray eyes and handed the wand back to Regulus.

"Maybe that's the case." Regulus said with a smile, "Harry's situation is quite special. Of course Ollivander must seize this rare opportunity and let him test as many wands as possible..."

"What an old profiteer. I have to settle accounts with him if I have the chance." Sirius said half-seriously.

By this time, Harry's snowy owl had quickly returned and picked up a dead mouse.

At this moment, she was standing on the windowsill, staring at Antalis.

Seeing that her family status might be threatened, Antalis seemed very vigilant.

"Nice owl, do you have a name?" Regulus walked to the window, and the snowy owl made a hoot.

"I haven't picked it up yet... I'll look for a name from this book." Harry took out his newly bought book "History of Magic" written by Bathilda Bagshot.

After half an hour of intense searching, and after considering a series of names such as Freya, Medea, and Clytemnestra, Harry finally chose the name St. Hyde of Andyx, Duchess of Silesia. Wei, to name his beloved snowy owl.

According to the "History of Magic", St. Hedwig was a saint dedicated to the education of orphans. She had seven children and was the patron saint of orphans.
