[HP] Liar

Chap.13

After listening to Viola's words, how will Malfoy choose to answer?

This is really a question worth pondering.

The result Viola expected was probably to get a burst of cynicism from Malfoy, and in the end she could only return to the Ravenclaw common room from the Room of Requirement in despair.This was even for the best - after all, Malfoy hadn't had time to cast a jinx on her.

Unexpectedly, Malfoy just sneered, and then went straight to the sliding door of the Room of Requirement, as if he had never seen Viola before.

Viola stood there stunned, looking at Malfoy's tall and straight back, her face was full of anger.

It is said that the highest state of contempt is ignorance, so - Malfoy's current attitude is simply worse than directly satirizing her!

"What are you still standing there for, Clearwater?"

After hearing Malfoy's question clearly, Viola blinked in confusion.

"What to do... I, I didn't plan to do anything." Merlin, she didn't know what she was talking about.Viola lowered her head slightly, her expression became a little embarrassed, "I just want to use the Room of Requirement. But you won't let me in, will you, Mr. Malfoy?"

Draco Malfoy did not answer her question directly, but looked at her slightly dissatisfied and said: "I only give you half an hour, Clearwater. After half an hour, you must leave this place for me immediately." place, do you understand?"

This time, Viola was once again completely dumbfounded.

half an hour?What's the meaning?

Could it be... Could it be that Draco Malfoy was going to give the Room of Requirement to himself first?

But as soon as this idea popped into Viola's head, she felt it was extremely absurd.

Who is standing in front of her?He was Draco Malfoy - a Slytherin who was extremely discriminating and hated non-pure blood wizards.And her?She just so happens to be a bitch wizard from a Muggle family.

How could Malfoy - how could he have made the move to give up the House of Requirement to a bitch wizard?

"Ah—it seems that you don't want to appreciate it." When Viola was silent and thinking to herself, Malfoy raised his chin arrogantly and said in a drawn-out tone, "But I shouldn't have said to a What do short-sighted Mudbloods expect."

"I'm not a Mudblood!" Viola seemed offended, and hurriedly retorted angrily, "I have a name!"

After finishing speaking, she clenched the wand in her hand, and at the same time slowly came to Malfoy's side with vigilant eyes, and Malfoy took a step back at this moment, giving way to the sliding door of the Room of Requirement. her.

It looks like the sun will come out from the west tomorrow.

While secretly feeling emotional in her heart, Viola pushed open the door of the Room of Requirement.

In an instant, the Room of Requirement became the familiar one again.

Viola was about to step forward and step into the interior of the Room of Requirement, but unexpectedly, Draco walked into the room before her.

After entering the room, Draco took a critical look around the surrounding environment.Drawing boards, easels, and several unfinished scrolls spread flat on the table—this is undoubtedly the layout that a studio should have.

Viola timidly followed behind Draco, not daring to take a breath, for fear that if she said a wrong word, the young master who was emotionally unstable would regret what she had just done with "good intentions". Decide.

As a result, Draco didn't say any harsh comments, but sat directly on the sofa in the center of the room, and then began to cross his legs in boredom and eat the green apple he took out of his pocket.

Seeing that Draco didn't show any signs of getting angry, Viola breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, then tiptoed to the drawing board, and took the dozen or so photos of Ravenclaw players she had brought with her. placed on top.

"I only have half an hour for you, Clearwater." Just as Viola was about to start copying, Draco's voice suddenly sounded behind her, "And you only have 25 minutes left."

After the words fell, his silver gray eyes were still looking thoughtfully at the wall clock on the wall. At this moment, the pointer was exactly pointing to [-]:[-].

"Understood, Mr. Malfoy." Viola replied in a low voice.

In fact, at first, Viola found this strange silence between them disturbing and embarrassing.But once she got into the mood and devoted herself to the painting, she quickly forgot about Draco Malfoy.

Finally, the pointer finally pointed to [-]:[-].

But before Draco could take the initiative to remind Viola, the Ravenclaw girl who had been silent all this time stood up from the seat on time and collected the unfinished scrolls in her hand one by one. into her backpack.

Then, she turned to Draco with sharp eyes.

Draco narrowed his eyes suspiciously.

"It's time, Mr. Malfoy." Viola said softly, "According to the previous agreement, I should also leave."

After hearing this, Draco just gave a faint "hmm", and looked at the drawing board behind Viola at the same time.

"What were those pictures you just painted for?" he asked.

Viola blinked her eyes in surprise, and after a moment of hesitation in her heart, she answered truthfully: "It's the portraits of the Quidditch team members of our college."

"The Quidditch team?" Draco asked reflexively, but didn't expect Viola's answer.

...Oh, yes, recently, the Quidditch match has been going on in full swing.If it was in the past, he must have been preparing for the Quidditch match like other members of the Slytherin team, striving for the glory of his house, right?

But now... Now he can no longer think of what he used to be, just being an ordinary student in Slytherin house and a Seeker in a Quidditch team.

——Because, he now has a more important task to complete.

——an important task enough to determine the future life and death of the Malfoy family.

Seeing that Draco hadn't spoken, Viola couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.She looked at Draco with tangled emotions for a while, and finally asked in a low voice: "Mr. Malfoy, if there is nothing else, I will leave first?"

"Wait a minute." To her surprise, Draco stopped her.

"Is there anything else?"

"Clivet, you—" Draco looked at Viola, hesitant to speak, "What is your relationship with Potter and the others?" After the words fell, he added in time: " You'd better think carefully before answering my question."

Viola rolled her eyeballs and asked back, "Are you referring to Harry?"

Draco snorted softly.

"Harry Potter and I are just ordinary classmates." After confirming that her answer was correct, Viola replied.

"Ordinary classmate?" Draco raised the corners of his mouth contemptuously, and the expression on his face obviously didn't believe her answer, "Just ordinary classmate? But I heard—the relationship between Lovegood and Potter , but it is not simple."

After hearing this, Viola sighed softly, "The matter between Luna and Harry has nothing to do with me, even though I am Luna's good friend." After she finished speaking, she paused, "But... Perhaps Harry and I can barely qualify as ordinary friends."

She didn't know why she told Draco Malfoy these things, but she had already said these things before she could react.

……normal friend?

Draco couldn't help repeating the word in his own mouth with a little playfulness. Seeing Viola Clearwater's trembling appearance now, his heart couldn't help rising A little bit of pleasure.

All this time, that damned Potter had been trying to find evidence that he was working for the Dark Lord, which is why he had to be distracted by Goyle and Crabbe on the way to the Room of Requirement. Potter's attention.

He knew very well that the task assigned to him by the Dark Lord was very important to the Malfoy family, so he would never allow that Potter to spoil his good deed.

Since Potter is willing to regard that "mad girl" Lovegood as a friend, judging from his usual affectation, he probably also regards the Viola Clearwater in front of him as one of his friends. one.

Maybe... Draco thought secretly, maybe getting to know Clearwater wasn't a bad thing for him.

Because, this Krivat might be of some useable value to him in the future.

"Mr. Malfoy?" At this moment, Viola asked again with a questioning gaze, "Excuse me—after today... can I still come here?"

The Ravenclaw girl looked very disturbed, and Draco couldn't help but wonder what he had done to give her such a horrified impression.

He suddenly thought of Pansy and what Pansy had done to Clearwater a few days ago.

For a moment, the doubts that had remained in his heart disappeared in smoke.

He still remembered, on the day of the Commencement Ceremony - when Viola Clearwater had accidentally bumped into him, Draco hadn't remembered her name at the time.He didn't even remember what she looked like, only that she was a timid Ravenclaw.

Draco thought that the reason why Pansy took "revenge" against Clearwater might be because he inadvertently asked Pansy about the whereabouts of this Ravenclaw after that day, or... he also It's not clear what the cause is.

But now, these are not important anymore.

Because he suddenly understood another thing with the help of this thing-that was his girlfriend Panxi Parkinson, which made him feel out of breath.

And Viola was still standing there waiting for Draco's answer. When Draco came back to his senses, the hands of the wall clock had already pointed to [-]:[-].

"Half an hour." Finally, Draco said quietly, "Other than that, I won't give you an extra minute, Clearwater."

After hearing this, Viola nodded gratefully and said, "Thank you, Mr. Malfoy."

Although she didn't feel from the bottom of her heart that Malfoy had anything to be grateful for.
