Professor, please pay the debt
Chapter 117 Slughorn's Christmas Ball 4
The melodious waltz tune was played at the right time, Scrimgeour took the confused Luna on his arm, and Harry took the astonished Hermione to the dance floor first.
They immediately caught everyone's attention.The two men/boys are both tall and powerful. Scrimgeour is a well-deserved image of a tough guy. Harry has an outstanding look and youthful vigor. Hermione and Luna look petite and graceful in their dance steps against their backdrop. Not to mention the lack of identity, just the scene of these four people dancing together is enough to attract people's attention.
While dancing, Hermione asked Harry, "Why is that? The Minister and Luna, me and you, what a strange combination?"
"Didn't you hear there was a motion in the Ministry to shut down The Quibbler?" Harry said, giving Luna an encouraging smile.
"This...is this useful?" Hermione was a little skeptical, "Besides, we don't need to dance with us!"
How could he be willing to take Luna's arm if he didn't give Scrimgeour a little sweetness!
The minister brought a lot of photographers to the ball, and since the four of them started dancing, the bright light of the flash has not stopped.It can be expected that the photos of the four of them will occupy the front pages of all newspapers in the next week.
But Harry wouldn't tell Hermione that, he just said, "Actually, I just wanted to take this opportunity to invite you, and I'm going back to Grimmauld Place for Christmas this year, you know... it's also the traditional social season, so, I'm ready to dance!"
"Wow--"
Girls go crazy for proms, even Hermione.
Almost without a second thought, she had agreed to be Harry's dance partner this social season, and had promised to help with the preparations for the prom.
The four danced two waltzes in a row. In the end, too many people danced with them, so that the venue was crowded. After listening to countless compliments and making countless smirks, Scrimgeour and Harry Finally found a secluded place to talk about serious business.
"I thought you would hate that roadside tabloid - after the article about werewolves, I didn't expect such a rare tolerance!" Scrimgeour's words were obviously unfriendly, with a hint of provocation.
"I've experienced things worse than this..." Harry shot back unceremoniously, "Since the Ministry of Magic publicly called me a lunatic in the "Daily Prophet", my attitude towards mass media has been less so." Seriously!"
Scrimgeour was repelled, and he had to drop the subject.
"I guess you know why I'm here."
Of course, the two of them knew each other well.It's a deal.
This social season, Harry will throw a ball for Scrimgeour in Grimmauld Place to tell the public that the Savior and the Ministry are in solidarity.
There will also be a number of events arranged by Scrimgeour.For example, the carnivals of various industry associations, and the Christmas ball specially organized by the Department of Magical Diplomacy for ambassadors from various countries.
In addition, the Ministry of Magic of Germany and France have sent out invitations respectively, hoping that Harry can go to Europe for a banquet, and Scrimgeour also agreed on Harry's behalf.
For this series of catwalk activities, Scrimgeour needs to do two things for Harry, one is to help Harry get the vault of the Lestrange family, and the other is to release Lucius Malfoy.
"Goblins are hard to deal with! Everyone knows it. Taking a coffer from them is as difficult as attacking a country. And Malfoy..."
Scrimgeour looked at Harry seriously, and asked halfway through, "Are you still refusing to tell me the reason? Why do you want to save an opponent? Your request really confuses me.
I remember that in the Battle of the Hall of Prophecy half a year ago, you had a real fight with Malfoy and the others.
And... Lucius Malfoy was almost sent to prison by you.
So, now, what happened?You want to fish him out again.Also, if I'm not mistaken, Miss Granger - your best friend, her dance partner tonight is also a Malfoy. "
"Excuse me, I want to break the convention and answer your second question first - about Hermione's partner, this is not as meaningful as you think.
In fact, the reason why Draco Malfoy became my best friend's dance partner is entirely due to the waywardness of a little girl, and I have nothing to do with it. "
It is easy to judge from Scrimgeour's expression that he doesn't believe in the so-called coincidence at all.
Harry just shrugged his shoulders and didn't bring up the matter again.Lucius was obviously more important than Draco, and Harry had to give the Minister a plausible reason.
"As for the battle in the Hall of Prophecy that has been rumored to be miraculous..."
Harry sighed, and said in frustration, "Isn't it strange for someone who has experienced war like you? I only had five helpers at the time, and Malfoy brought a dozen of them. The fighting power on both sides is not at the same level at all." ..."
"You mean... Malfoy intends to let you go?"
Scrimgeour imagined the reasons for the victory in the Battle of the Hall of Prophecy as Harry had hoped, and Harry told him vaguely that Malfoy was vacillating and wanted to leave a way out for himself.
This explanation was in line with Scrimgeour's impression of Malfoy. He said in disgust, "That double-faced guy! He has already escaped once, and now he wants to do it again... The last time he got away with it was through Snape and Deng." Blida made an agreement. This time, he came to you directly, how cunning!"
Harry was taken aback, he didn't expect Severus and the old madman to be involved!
"This is astonishing! Mr. Minister..."
Harry wanted to pry into more secrets, and he said mean things on purpose, "Are you sure about the bribe, oh, sorry! Maybe it should be called a deal... I mean, it happened between Malfoy, Snape, Between Dumbledore, rather than... government departments?"
"I know what you're thinking!"
Obviously, Scrimgeour was angry, "Damn government! Pure, morally impeccable Dumbledore! Ha!"
"Oh……"
Harry looked a little panicked, he hesitated before saying, "Maybe I was wrong, of course, you know... I didn't experience that war and the liquidation after the war, but I still heard that Malfoy He paid a huge price to keep his freedom. His family's ancestral property seems to be much less. It may be worth hundreds of thousands. Please forgive me, although I don't think Dumbledore is pure-absolutely not! But I still can't put him Connect with Garen."
"So, our suspicion is bigger, isn't it!"
"Um……"
Harry hesitated, trying to look distrustful so that Scrimgeour would say more.The move clearly worked.
Scrimgeour said, "Potter, I think you are a sensible person! At least you understand better than Malfoy...Dumbledore kept him, but he wanted to leave a living pocket.
Of course, the pure Dumbledore had nothing to do with Gallon, he never touched it himself.In fact, there was no need at all, as long as he ordered, Jin Gallon would be delivered to the person he designated. "
really!He is better!
Harry secretly applauded Dumbledore, but he was more concerned with Severus' role in the deal.
So Harry expressed his doubts again, and pointed out that Malfoy had little contact with Dumbledore, "You forgot someone, young man, your memory is really not very good!" Scrimgeour was obviously a little impatient, but still Said, "Professor Snape, ha! That ex-Death Eater, Malfoy's lover! He and..."
"What!" Harry roared, he had no idea how scary his voice was, "Who do you say is whose lover?"
"Don't get excited, oh... pure boy, the things in this world will always exceed your imagination, back then..."
Scrimgeour only thought that Harry was frightened, and he told a gossip many years ago with a serious expression. In the era of James Potter, it was not only the robbery foursome who had rumors of being sexually obsessed.
In fact, the students of Slytherin House are the most unscrupulous in any era, and the relationship between Malfoy's senior and the potion genius is just one of many same-sex scandals.
