[hp] warm as jade

Lockhart's incident quickly set off a storm in the entire wizarding world.

The owl almost bombed the entire Ministry of Magic. Most of Lockhart’s fans are housewives who are irrational and easily incited (this is not discrimination against women, but according to the original book, most of Lockhart’s fans are housewives) , of course, the fighting power is extremely strong and cannot be ignored.

Howler letters visit the Ministry of Magic, and Hogwarts will not be spared.Fortunately, Headmaster Dumbledore's prestige and reputation were there, and he was overwhelmed by ordinary letters instead of shouting letters.

As a result, the students were unable to see their principal in the teacher's bench for three days in a row.

"The dementors settled in Hogwarts, whose incompetence?"

"Cursed position - Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher."

"The Lockhart incident! Men will be silent when they see it, and women will cry when they see it!"

"Shocked! The big star and the dementor actually did such a thing!"

The major newspapers used exaggerated headlines to attract people's attention. The sales volume of the Prophet's Day report tripled, and they had to work overtime overnight to catch up with the printing. need.In addition, the sales of "Wizard Weekly", "Magic Tabloid" and so on have also continued to hit record highs.

When Lucius received the Daily Prophet, he was having breakfast with Narcissa. Seeing the headline, he couldn't help shaking the newspaper to Narcissa: "Look, your son did it."

Narcissa looked a little unhappy, after all, she once liked Lockhart, but this love was more reserved and rational.Of course, when Draco and Rong Jiu described Lockhart's class to her, this rational and reserved liking turned into disgust.

"Your tone." Narcissa said displeasedly, "Our son can do such a thing, shouldn't you say it in a tone of praise and pride?"

"Oh, he's not here, I forgot." Lucius quickly admitted his mistake, "Dear Sissy, you are just too gentle with him, in order not to let him grow crooked, I have to maintain the image of a strict father in front of him... ..."

"What's wrong with Draco?" Narcissa is the same as all mothers in the world in this regard, and she can't tolerate others saying that her son is not good at all, even if this person is her dear husband and son's father It doesn't work either.

Speaking of this, Lucius started to have a headache again: "Oh, dear, it's okay for others, look at Cassie! Haven't you seen enough this holiday? From grades to words and deeds, you can pick out her What's wrong?"

"Can it be the same?" Narcissa gave him a very inelegant roll of eyes, "What kind of life did Cassie lead when she was a child, and what kind of life was our Draco? Isn't it natural that there are some differences? Draco just still If you haven't grown up, won't you be fine in a few years?"

Lucius: "..."

Forget it, Cassie belongs to their family anyway.As for what Draco will become in a few years... I can only play the role of strict father.

At this time, Lucius' arm suddenly hurt, and for a while, the bun in his hand lost his grip, fell to the ground, and rolled around twice.

But he didn't have time to feel annoyed, and rolled up his sleeves.On his arm, a skull was imprinted there, and a large boa constrictor spit out of its mouth - the Dark Mark, the symbol of the Death Eaters.

This mark was originally black, but since the fall of the Dark Lord, it has turned gray, without any response, as if it was just a tattoo with a weird style.

But now, the Dark Mark has undergone subtle changes, it looks brighter, and even the python that was shrinking before has stretched a bit.

"Sissy!" For the first time, Lucius' face showed a panic that didn't suit his identity, "Dark Mark!"

Since the fall of the Dark Lord, the Dark Mark has almost become a heart disease for the two of them.What it looked like in the past and what it looks like now, the two of them knew clearly. Although this change was slight, in the eyes of the two of them, it was no different from a world turned upside down.

"He's getting stronger," Narcissa whispered.

Lucius' expression seemed to be fearful, but also fanatic: "The Dark Lord will really come back."

"It's not too late." Narcissa was much calmer.She herself doesn't have much emotion towards the Dark Lord. Compared with her husband and son's admiration and fanaticism, her obedience to the Dark Lord is more due to current affairs, "Go and contact the 'friends' from the past, especially Severer S."

"Well, good." Lucius was infected by his wife and calmed down, "We have to do something else."

"That diary." Narcissa suddenly remembered, "The Dark Lord put it with you—"

Lucius' face turned pale.

"Got to tell Cassie and Draco," he said decisively, "whatever they can do, at least make some gestures."

While Malfoy Manor was in turmoil, the rest of it wasn't much better.

For the same thing, Snape's concentration was much better, at least he didn't lose his composure.But if someone is interested, he will find that he almost only ate one-third of the normal amount, and then got up and left the table.

Of course, Hogwarts students don't know all of this—at least not for the time being.They are still complaining about such trivial topics as today's bacon is a bit old, and the lettuce leaves are not too tender.

In the afternoon, the sun is just right.Leaning against a big tree, Rong Jiu quietly flipped through her Transfiguration textbook, which was densely written with her notes and experiences.But other people probably couldn't understand it, because she memorized it in Chinese.

Because she was too engrossed, she failed to notice that a sneaky figure approached her in a lewd manner.

The figure was getting closer and closer.It was obviously a grassy field with no cover, but she felt as if she had stepped out of the obstacles.Crouching down for a while, walking on tiptoes for a while, and even rolling twice on the grass... Fortunately, Rong Jiu always likes to read books in remote places, otherwise this kind of behavior does not know how much attention it will attract.

almost.

The figure was only two or three steps away from Rong Jiu, and finally decided not to hide his body anymore, and pretended to be a hungry tiger pouncing on his food, shouting——

"Idol!"

This distance, this movement, logically speaking, it is absolutely impossible to avoid it.

But she doesn't seem to have investigated some of Rong Jiu's personal habits.

For example, when reading a book, you will place many spells and charms around you.

This habit was inherited from the current Head of Slytherin, Mr. Severus Snape.When he was making potions, he was always surrounded by various means.

Don't ask why Rong Jiu knew it, after all, practice is the best teacher.

Suddenly, there was a strong wind on the flat ground, and the screaming girl went straight to the sky, and then, several streams of muddy water sprayed up...

By the time she landed, she had become a dried mud monkey.

Rong Jiu stared dumbfounded at the girl who appeared suddenly and crawled to her side, then wiped her face with muddy hands, and smiled flatteringly: "Idol, you are so amazing!"

Rong Jiu was silent for a moment, then picked up the wand: "Clean up...forget it, clear water is like a spring."

The girl unexpectedly discovered that the water poured on her body was actually warm, which moved her who was ready to be showered with cold water.After a while, the mud all over her body was washed away.

Then, tap again with the wand: "Helios."

"Wow." The girl exclaimed, and was shocked to find that she was really dried, except for some messy hair and clothes that proved how messed up she was...

But she didn't care about the surprise, and quickly moved to Rong Jiu's side: "Idol, I'm Flowerlin, a first-year student in Ravenclaw, and I, my parents, and I are all Chinese... well, it doesn't matter." , the important thing is that you are an idol, you are so good, you really give the Chinese people a face!"

Rong Jiu: "..."

Can anyone tell her what's going on?

"Idol, you are really amazing. All the seniors and seniors in our college are full of praise for you. Really, they almost never praise people from other colleges." Flower is still talking about it Seeing her sincerity and admiration, Rong Jiu's temples ached from the quarrel, she really didn't know why this girl rushed over like this...

"...that idol, can you accept me as an apprentice?" Flower is a good girl who is understanding and considerate. After a proclamation of worship of more than [-] words, she finally expressed her purpose.

"What?" Rong Jiu felt as if he had an auditory hallucination.

"Apprentice, me." Flower pointed at herself flatteringly, "What do you think, idol?"

"..." Rong Jiu felt that she might really be hallucinating.It is estimated that he did not rest well and had hallucinations.

"Probably not." Without waiting for Rong Jiu to answer, a mocking voice came from above the two of them, dragging on, "The Malfoy family will not accept a person of unknown origin in any form."

Rong Jiu rubbed his eyebrows.

Flower looked up.The boy on the tree bent one leg, put his hand on it, half-closed his eyes, and looked cynical. After saying this, he jumped down from the tree and walked two steps swaggeringly: "So, you Forget it."

Rong Jiu smiled apologetically at Flower: "Well, he is the elder brother, he has the final say."

However, the expression on Flower's face didn't seem to be regret, but... a dream?

"handsome guy!"

With this howl, Draco's nightmare officially began.
