if i am not me

More than?

Hearing his son's request, Lucius was really stunned this time, and at the same time, there was a hint of puzzlement in his eyes, after all, in his opinion, it was completely unnecessary, "Doesn't it listen to you? "

Apart from this reason, he really couldn't figure out what the reason was, that the son of the little elf in the family who couldn't tell who was who at the age of eight would ask for it directly.But looking at Draco's expression, it seems that it's not because of this...

"Uh... no." When Lucius asked the reason, Draco had a rare expression on his face, and he paused before saying, "Well... you sent Dobby to take care of Aunt Mary and the others. Today Something has happened, I just want you to let Dobby just listen to me, so that if there is anything I can just ask him to do it, and I don’t have to come here to bother you..." Finally, Draco He rubbed his nose a little embarrassedly.

Naturally, Lucius also knew about the quarrel between Lucy and Lu Wei this afternoon, so when he heard Draco's reason, he couldn't help but sighed softly.

Sure enough, it had something to do with Harry.

If Harry hadn't been involved, Drake probably wouldn't have paid attention to a house-elf, let alone asked him for it to do better.However, it might not be impossible to hand Dobby over to Draco—in any case, Dobby was sent out, and he himself was too busy to take care of a house elf. With Drake, it can be easily controlled by them at any time, and if something happens, it can be passed through Harry in time.What's more, doing so can fulfill his son's wishes...

Thinking of this, Lucius nodded with a half-smile and said, "Okay, I'll make Dobby your exclusive house-elf."

Drake didn't expect Lucius to be so easy to talk to. Seeing that he agreed so readily, a smile immediately climbed into his eyes when he was surprised, "Oh, thank you so much, father."

Seeing Draco's expression of joy, Lucius couldn't help but smile leisurely, "Then, is there anything else?"

"No, Father." Desperately wanting to tell Harry the good news, Draco shook his head hastily, "Then I'm going out."

"Go!" Knowing that this kid definitely wanted to talk to Harry about this, Lucius didn't stop him, and waved his hand to signal him to leave.After getting his father's consent, Draco left the door twice as fast as when he came.

I thought it would take a lot of effort to convince my father that he was doing this for Dobby to take better care of Mary and the others, but he didn't expect his father to agree in a few words, thanks to the fact that he had made sufficient preparations for this before.

Just when Drake left Lucius's study excitedly, Harry was staying with Viri and the others, listening to Narcissa tell them stories about the wizarding world.It has to be said that these stories are not only attractive to Willy and Joan, but also to Harry. With Narcissa's vivid narration, he almost forgot that he was actually sitting here waiting Drake's.

Just when he heard that the black wizard was about to cast a curse on the king, Drake walked in.But at this time everyone's attention was on Narcissa, so Harry didn't notice his arrival until he sat next to Harry.

Looking sideways at Draco, Harry knew it was done when he saw the joy in his eyes. "You're not suspicious, are you?" He leaned into Draco's ear and whispered, the only thing he was worried about now was this.

"Don't worry." Replied confidently, Draco secretly took Harry's hand and squeezed it.With Harry as a shield, he believed that his father would never think that they actually had other purposes.

After getting an affirmative answer, Harry frowned slightly, but stopped talking with Drake, and instead listened to the story of Narcissa, the dark wizard.You know, they are still in the living room now.

When it was finally time to go to bed, Draco dragged the sleepy-eyed Harry towards his own room—in fact, Narcissa had prepared a guest room for Harry, but except for the first night, there was no room for him thereafter. Never came in handy again.In Drake's words, two rooms would hinder communication between them.In this regard, Narcissa and Lucius naturally let it go, and Mary, although Harry and the others never said it clearly, she seemed to have already felt it.Fortunately, she also turned a blind eye, so Draco was happy to pull Harry to live with him, and it would be more convenient for the two to discuss things.

"Have you figured out how to convince Dobby?" After closing the door, Draco took out his wand and cast a spell to close his ears, then sat down peacefully, and poured Harry a cup of hot milk by the way—this is The habits Harry has developed in the past two years show how much he expects of his height.

Taking the cup handed over by his lover, Harry felt the warmth in his palm, and after thinking for a while, he said, "It's about the same. Speaking of which, we can be regarded as holding on to it." Of course, if there is no way to threaten, it is natural The best, but if Dobby still couldn't get Dobby to follow them in submission, the current Harry didn't mind using other means.

And even if these are not enough, isn't there still Drake. "Besides, the elf can't disobey the master's order." After drinking the milk in one gulp, Harry lowered his eyelids, "Now the main reason is that it will leak the word when inquiring about the news and attract unnecessary attention ..."

"That's why I asked you to go out." Taking the empty cup from Harry's hand, Draco smiled softly, "Didn't you say that Dobby is actually very smart? As long as he is willing to help us, believe that we can get it, no It will only be news from Aunt Bella."

Dobby felt very dazed at the moment, the master called him suddenly just now, and told him that there would only be one master for him from now on——the little master, the future head of the Malfoy family, Draco Malfoy.

It doesn't know why the master, ah, no, it should be called the old master now, would hand it over to the master so abruptly.First let it temporarily break free from the shackles of the manor to take care of Ms. Madill's family, and then pick it out of the many elves in the house to belong to its owner. It's got both...

Blinking his big eyes in confusion, Dobby stood outside Drake's room, and after a while, he gently knocked on the door.

"Come in." Harry and Draco, who had just finished washing, looked at each other knowingly when they heard the knock on the door. Sure enough, standing behind the door was Dobby they had been waiting for tonight.

"Master..." It seemed that he was not used to addressing Draco like that, and Dobby's voice was as thin as a mosquito, but Draco didn't mind it, "Dobby, you have already got your father's order."

"Yes. Master." Bending down, Dobby bowed deeply, his eyes looked straight at the ground, and he didn't dare to raise it a little.

Dobby's reaction was expected, and Draco smiled even more when he saw this, "Well, from now on, you have to remember one thing first, Dobby." He intentionally lengthened the ending sound, seeing that Dobby's ears moved Before moving, he continued, "That is, you can't use any method and any channel to let anyone or creature other than me and Harry know about me and what I want you to do, including... my father."

Obviously, this request was not what Dobby expected.In its view, the old master assigned it to the master just to allow itself to take better care of the master, and the master's requirements for itself should be the same as the old master's. All it has to do is to shift the focus of future work Just a little change in name.

But the master's words made Dobby feel extremely uneasy.The command isn't really too much, and in a sense, that's what it's supposed to do.But at this moment, it was brought up so solemnly by the master, and there were people included in it, as well as the old master that it should have been loyal to, which made Dobby suddenly at a loss.

"Dobby, do you know Neville Longbottom?" When Dobby's head was still in a state of confusion, Harry suddenly said this sentence.Hearing the sound, Dobby's heart skipped a beat, a crack finally appeared on the face of the mask that had been trying so hard to maintain his calmness, and a look of fear instantly filled its big eyes.

Seeing Dobby's face, Draco narrowed his eyes slightly.It was one thing to hear it from Harry, but it was another thing to confirm it with his own eyes. The betrayal of the house-elf was not a good thing for a family anyway.Fortunately, Dobby's tip-off didn't have any impact on the Malfoy family, otherwise...

"Neville is my friend with Draco." Harry, who didn't notice the change in Draco's expression and put all his thoughts on Dobby, was looking at it with a smile, and said softly, "Dobby. Neville's in some trouble, and Draco and I want to help him, but it's just the two of us... so now, would you like to help us?"

Harry purposely mentioned Neville from the beginning, in order to alleviate Dobby's resistance.Because he knew too well how abnormal Dobby's thoughts were. The former Dobby may have only trusted two people in his life-Harry and Dumbledore.Now that Dobby has no chance to contact Dumbledore, Neville, who has become the "savior", is naturally the one he trusts the most at present, and the one he will eventually follow.Knowing this, how could Harry not make good use of it?

In addition, Harry and Drake have never concealed their friendship with Neville, I believe Dobby is very clear about the credibility of his words.

Dobby thought that Harry mentioned Neville because it had helped him three years ago, so it could be said that he was heartbroken.But they didn't expect that Harry mentioned Neville not for the purpose of accusing the teacher, on the contrary, they wanted it to help...

Help Neville Longbottom...!

This is exactly what Dobby has always wanted to do!
