[HP] Aunt of the Savior

Chapter 138 Malfoy's Considerations

Snape led Draco out of the robe shop, not knowing how much pressure they had put on the Grangers, and of course it was absolutely impossible for them to care about it.

"Mr. Snape, did you notice the boy standing with me just now?" Draco couldn't help asking after leaving the robe shop.

"I'm not interested in paying attention to every boy who is sure to be my student from now on." Snape's tone made Draco cringe instinctively. "Did the gregarious Mr. Malfoy make new friends so quickly? Even if it's just in the fitting room of... a robe shop?"

"But sir, that's Harry Potter!" Draco exclaimed for the first time in front of his future headmaster, his inner excitement finally overcoming his fear of Snape. "I saw Sirius Black just now! The boy admitted that he came with Sirius Black! Everyone knows that Black must live with his godson after he is exonerated!"

"Harry Potter?" Snape seemed to sneer through his teeth. "The Boy Who Lived looked amazing, then."

Snape's harsh comments about Harry Potter cheered up little Malfoy, and he was about to chime in with the man about how stupid Harry Potter was, but Snape stopped. Stepping forward, his cold palm rested lightly on Malfoy's shoulder. "I think we found your parents."

The Malfoys were standing in front of the ice cream shop, looking awkwardly at Sirius Black whom Draco had just met.Narcissa seemed about to say something, but Lucius held her shoulders tightly.

But soon Sirius directed a pile of ice cream to float in the air, followed him out of the ice cream shop, his expression was a little stiff, and his lips were tightly pursed.He gave Snape an unfriendly look as he passed Draco and Snape.

"Dad, Mom." Draco wanted to tell his parents what he had just met Harry Potter, but when he rushed to his mother, he found that Narcissa's eye circles were a little red. "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

"Oh, no, it's nothing. By the way, Draco, which flavor of ice cream do you want? Peppermint Cookie Man or Rainbow Chocolate?" Narcissa forced a smile at her son.

Draco frowned, and said indignantly, "It's that Sirius Black again! Mom, don't be sad, you still have grandfather, me and dad."

Of course he knew that the man was his mother's cousin, and the Black family had expelled this man many years ago.Draco hated to see his mother still be sad for that man.

Narcissa really laughed this time, she kissed her son tenderly on the cheek, watching Draco's face turn pink quickly.

"Again?" Lucius noticed another important point.

"I just saw him..." Draco's expression was both excited and disdainful. "The boy who bought the uniform robes with me came with him, and I think that must be Harry Potter."

"Harry Potter?" Lucius repeated the name thoughtfully, and turned to look at Snape, his gaze full of inquiry.

Snape gave an obvious smirk: "You can ask Draco what he thinks."

Like all children, Draco was very happy that his words were taken seriously by adults. He puffed out his chest triumphantly, imitating Lucius's usual appearance and shrugged: "Oh, that's such a stupid guy, I and He chatted a little, and he was so dull and dull that I think only Hufflepuff would take in a great boy-who-lived."

"Severus, is that so?" Lucius also had a smile on his lips, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.

"All I can say is that in my years of coaching, I've seen a lot of sluggish boys like him," Snape said slowly. "I don't think Harry Potter is any different from them."

"Okay, Draco, after eating the ice cream, we'll go buy wands. Although your mother has already screened some of them for you, after all, it's best for you to choose your own wands." Lucius turned to Snape. Smiling, "I won't invite you, Severus."

"Thank you for still having such judgment." Snape glared at Lucius, turned and left the Malfoy family, and quickly disappeared into the bustling crowd.

"Draco?" Lucius asked nonchalantly to his son who was already devouring the ice cream.

"Ok?"

"What was Mr. Snape doing at Madam Malkin's robe shop?"

"Of course it's a custom-made robe." Draco looked at his father strangely. "Mr Snape ordered three suits of the same robes as he usually wears."

"If you ask me, Severus's robe should really change its color." Narcissa thought of Snape's black robe that almost seemed to have never been changed throughout the year, although he would change the style according to different seasons and occasions, But the same color makes the difference almost invisible to the unwary. "Those who don't know must think that he only has one piece of clothing! Single men always don't pay attention to such things, but no woman can tolerate men always..."

In the middle of Narcissa's words, she suddenly stopped.She pursed her lips and looked at her husband.Lucius sat gracefully in the ice cream shop, with his hand resting on his ornate and exquisite cane, and his eyes narrowed.

The couple knew better than anyone that Snape was not supposed to be a single man, but on the night the Dark Lord disappeared, Jody Potter also disappeared, and there was no news for 11 years.

Bellatrix believed that the disappearance of the Dark Lord was related to the Potter family, and the first person she suspected was Jody who disappeared from under her nose that day.But before she could find Jody Potter, she was arrested by Auror and sent to Azkaban together with the Lestrange brothers and Barty Crouch Jr.

Karkaroff, who is now comfortably serving as the principal in Durmstrang, had confessed the identities of many Death Eaters in order to get rid of the charges, including the son of the Director of Law Enforcement Department, Barty G. Rauch.This incident once became a big scandal in the Ministry of Magic, and it was also an opportunity for the current Minister of Magic, Fudge - if there was no such scandal, the new Minister of Magic would undoubtedly be the old Barty C. Rauch.

At that time, there were also rumors that Karkaroff had confessed to Jody Potter, but this matter was only rumored for a while, and then it was settled because of Jody's disappearance.

It wasn't until Fudge finally succeeded in becoming the Minister of Magic with the support of Lucius that Lucius learned that Jody Potter had actually been on the list of Death Eaters hunted down by Aurors all along, but because she was Harry... Potter's only blood relative, this arrest warrant was not released to the public, but kept as a secret of the Auror Division.

The Aurors never let up in their hunt, or search, for Jody Potter, but even so, they found nothing.Lucius had been secretly suspecting that Snape was hiding Jody, but with his current dressing habits to share, that guess didn't seem to hold water.

Seeing that Draco had wiped the corners of his mouth with a clean handkerchief, Lucius tossed his beautiful light blonde hair and stood up, "Let's hurry up and buy a wand for Draco, I don't want to see that man again Mr Black."

The Malfoy family was much more efficient than Harry and the others. Sirius and Hagrid took Harry, who was coming to Diagon Alley for the first time, a good tour, and visited almost every store. .By the time Harry spent a lot of time at Ollivander's wand shop and finally chose his destined holly wand, the Malfoys had already had afternoon tea at their manor.

Hagrid had parted ways with Harry and the others at the Leaky Cauldron, and he had other things to do as Dumbledore told him.And Sirius took Harry to Apparate back to the cupboard apartment.Then he unexpectedly saw the stern-faced Jody and the usual Snape.

"Harry, I want to talk to your godfather, you go back to your room first." Jody's tone was very serious.

Harry looked at his aunt's expression, then at Mr. Snape, and immediately obediently returned to his room, and couldn't help but put his ear against the door.He was sad to find that he still couldn't hear anything - after capturing Peter Pedylou, Jody had always been very cautious when talking to Snape.They may choose to confess some things to Harry, but they must not allow him to eavesdrop on the truth of the matter, otherwise it is very likely to cause some misunderstandings.

After confirming that Harry could not have heard their conversation, Jody said dissatisfiedly to Sirius: "I can't believe that you didn't realize that you shouldn't be in Diagon Alley with Harry?"

"Why?" Sirius couldn't understand the reason for Jody's dissatisfaction at all.

"We have agreed a long time ago that Harry should not attract other people's attention as much as possible. Almost everyone knows that you are Harry's godfather, and the boy you bring must be Harry Potter. I even told Hai Don't choose to go through the door of the Leaky Cauldron, just to avoid other people's attention, and it's not a good thing for people to notice Harry in public." Jody looked at Sirius, also unable to understand why he would ask such a question .

"Oh, Jody, you're too careful." Sirius shrugged helplessly. "Diagon Alley is safe now, and Hagrid and I can protect Harry very well. You can't always put Harry in a jar. Harry is a boy and he needs to go through some less dangerous dangers to get better. Good growth. He didn't even go to Diagon Alley for the first time until today!"

"I think you are very clear that Harry is the only relative to me." Jody frowned: "Protection? Then how do you explain that you and Hagrid both left Harry halfway, if it wasn't for West Fleurs has been quietly following..."

"Didn't he stay with that little Malfoy all the time?" Sirius, who had just been slightly persuaded by Jody's concern for Harry, protested again when he heard this. "I didn't see him with Harry."

"I don't think I need to explain everything to you about the way I've taken care of keeping this boy safe." Snape's lips curled up, "I also want to tell you that because of your presence, Draco Malfoy Outside of Harry, the Malfoys have already noticed Harry in advance. Maybe you don't mind this happening?"

"Malfoy..." This time, Sirius looked ugly. "I'd like to see what they dare to do to Harry..."

Because of this incident, the atmosphere at the table was stiff until lunch time.Sirius looked absent-minded and tired, while Snape looked even worse than usual because of the extra guests at the table.Only Jody has returned to his usual appearance. "I heard you ran into Severus at Madam Malkin's robe store today?"

"Oh, yes." Harry scratched his hair, which was exactly the same as James. "But I didn't act like I knew Mr. Snape very well. But that Draco... aunt, do you know Draco and his parents?"

"Oh, yes, I know." Jody replied naturally. "Their name is Malfoy. They were Slytherin prefects when I entered school."

"...But I don't like that boy named Draco." Harry said sullenly, looking at Snape expectantly.

"That doesn't matter. Today, you behaved..." Snape said rather reluctantly under Jody's gaze, "very well."

Hearing Snape's praise, Harry's eyes immediately curled up in laughter.

Sirius curled his lips in displeasure.

Snape cleared his throat and coughed twice.Perhaps because of the influence of living together in the past few years, Harry Potter's expression is more like Jody, which looks much more pleasing to the eye. "On the first day of school, we will take you to the train."
