Ron is indeed not as intelligent as Harry and Hermione, he does things more according to his own mind, Ron can't tell who is right and who is wrong in this rumor, his brothers' smart Weasley twins don't know anything at all, and the other Percy chose to be silent, how could he not know about this matter as a prefect, but he chose to let it go.

Ron was Harry's friend, but he was so affected by these rumors that he didn't know who to trust and who not to trust. Now, especially the first-year students, they all deliberately avoid Harry, Harry doesn't seem to care or explain anything, just doing his own thing.

All in all, Ron was depressed right now.

So he chose to go to Harry when he had three days off to go, and the wizarding chess about Ron has always been very good, and generally few people can beat Ron in wizarding chess, even some adults.

So Ron was ready to test Harry in his own way, to see how powerful the boy was, every move of wizarding chess has a calculation in it, Harry was a little ignorant and confused at the beginning, and then killed all sides, although Ron was very happy to find an opponent in wizarding chess, but also had a new understanding of Harry Potter.

Especially when he asks which side he is going to be on.

He sat there in surprise, Harry looked at Ron with one hand on his chin and a smile on his face, Saul put down the book in his hand and glanced at Ron and Harry sitting on the sofa next to him, Harry was reviewing Ron, Lestrade needed true friends, if Harry could identify Ron as a friend, all Lestrades would show him their friendliness.

Just like Hermione at the time.

Thor shook his head, it was up to Ron to make his own choice. He continued to read the book in his hand, because he was about to go home, and Thor didn't want his brother to laugh at him for being stupid, so he was now reading a book to make up for it.

Ron didn't know how to answer, Harry's options were actually two, one was them and the other was the other Gryffindor, Ron was very entangled Harry didn't seem to care about the rumors in Gryffindor, but he seemed to be strategizing, Harry's current smile Ron didn't know how to describe it.

He hesitated for a few minutes, and Harry gave him the time, he picked up the wizarding chess pieces that had been restored to their original state, this wizarding chess was amazing, he thought that Mycroft and Sherlock would like it, and it was the two of them who liked to play chess when they were usually bored at home.

"Of course I am...... On your side, who called us friends? ”

Harry tilted his head and smiled, this smile was genuine, this was the first time Harry reached out to Ron, "Then Mr. Ron Weasley is happy to be friends with you." ”

Thor shook his head, Harry agreed with Ron, as long as he could get Harry's approval, as long as Ron didn't make any big wrong decisions, Harry would choose to help and trust him.

You see, Harry Potter was very tolerant of his friends.

Ron watched Harry hold it tightly as he stretched it out, and his smile as he watched Harry reinforce his choice, it was useless for anyone else to say anything, as long as he could recognize Harry Potter.

Harry pointed to the wizarding chess on their table and said, "Where can I buy this kind of thing?" ”

"It's all right in Diagon Alley."

Harry nodded, and he saw if he could get someone to help him buy one, so he could take it with him when he got home. But who should he go to, which made Harry a little difficult, Ron's parents were actually a good choice, but Harry thought of the attitude of Ron's brothers and immediately gave a negative in his heart.

It's better not to owe such a favor, but it's better to find another one, after all, Slytherin's favor can be measured by some other gift or money. Harry nodded his head and said he knew, after which Harry and Ron talked a little bit about wizarding chess. Even though Harry had already thought that Ron was a friend to date, he still didn't tell him some secrets, such as Harry's magic.

After all, this kind of thing can't be said in one or two sentences.

"Do you really think Ron can be trusted?"

Thor whispered to Harry, who laughed, "After all, he wasn't stupid enough to follow those rumors, was he?" ”

Thor sighed, "Harry, I've always believed in your eye for people, and probably only time can test whether Ron is really a friendship, I hope he doesn't run into you...... The bottom line. ”

Harry shrugged and patted his brother on the shoulder, "Okay, believe me in the way people look at people?" My brother. ”

Since Harry had decided to ask Draco for help, he came to the man's side at breakfast the next day, Draco looked at Harry a little strangely, thinking that the boy didn't know that Gryffindor had the courage to come to him because he was not afraid of being excluded from a hospital? Although his current situation is not much better.

"Good morning, Malfoy."

Harry greeted the boy with a big smile on his face, and Draco raised an eyebrow at Harry and said lightly, "Isn't this the Harry Potter who was undercover in Slytherin in the rumors of being ostracized?" What are you looking for from me? ”

It sounded like a mockery of Harry, but it was for the other Gryffindors, and Draco looked down on Gryffindor the most, and it seemed that they were so righteous...... In this respect, it is not as cheerful as Slytherin, Slytherin has its own small group, and they know how to say and do what to do, which is very different from Gryffindor.

Draco's voice wasn't too loud, but his voice was relatively soft and crisp, and everyone in Gryffindor was there to observe the interaction between Harry and Draco, so they stretched out their ears to listen, they heard Draco's words and gritted their teeth in anger, a Slytherin dared to say such a thing.

Harry actually wanted to touch Draco's pale blonde hair, and Draco really looked like Loki, the tone was ...... He glanced at his own academy next to him and shook his head, you can see that those people have already gritted their teeth in anger from Draco's words.

"You're going to make them angry, and then I'll be convicted."

Draco raised an eyebrow and lowered his voice, "Do you care?" Porter. If you cared about this reputation, you wouldn't let it go, would you? ”

The only person in this school who saw through Harry's disguise was probably Draco, who had discovered a lot of Harry's secrets, and knew that Harry really didn't care about Gryffindor's affairs, and if he did, he wouldn't let the form become what it is. But what's even more interesting is that it makes Harry more aware of reality.

The fact that Gryffindor may not be as good as Slytherin.

"Do you think I don't care?"

Draco curled the corners of his mouth before deciding not to talk about it anymore, he looked at Harry and said, "Tell me, what the hell is going on with you, Potter." ”

"It's probably a small thing, I want to buy a pair of wizarding chess from Diagon Alley, but I don't know how to buy it as much as I can, so I want you to be half busy."

Draco snorted, looked at Harry and said, "Why do you think I'm going to help you?" ”

"Because Harry Potter owes a favor that must be needed, or I can tell you a little bit of my little secret."

Harry knew how to tempt Draco, just like Draco, Harry didn't owe favors and knew where Draco's weaknesses were.

Sure enough, Draco squinted his eyes and thought for a moment before saying, "You'll be able to get what you need tomorrow, my request is simple, what we have is time to grind Potter slowly." ”

"What requirements?"

Harry looked at Draco's smug expression and smiled, saying that it seemed that the boy's request this time was simple, he knew what it meant to go step by step, and he didn't immediately ask him to tell his secret.

"I've eaten the dessert you gave me before, and it tastes pretty good, even if it's a Muggle thing."

Harry looked at Draco with a smile, "You're going to get a great gift for Christmas, trust me. ”

"The deal is done."

Harry didn't owe Draco anything, he gave Draco a money bag, which was some gold Galleons, and the favor was already owed, but he couldn't owe money, Draco weighed the money bag in his hand and raised his eyebrows, it seems that the head of the Lestrade family is very generous to the two children, since Harry can take out such a bag of gold gallons, it means that the two of them have a lot of money.

Harry nodded to Draco again, and left the Slytherin table.

"Harry Potter is really interesting."

Blaise looked indifferent and said to Draco on the other side, Draco glanced at the boy angrily, Blaise is a special kind of Slytherin being, but he is indeed a standard Slytherin.

"Hmph, of course."

Draco was going to write a letter to his father and ask him to buy a prime wizard chess to send over, and Harry had enough money anyway, didn't he?

"What are you looking for in Malfoy?"

Hermione asked Ron's heart, and Harry looked at Hermione and said, "Let Malfoy help buy something, it's Christmas, isn't it?" ”

Harry had already looked for other gifts, and the ones he gave to everyone were about magic, the chessboard was for Mycroft, and the one for Sherlock was the potion notes he had borrowed from his senior classmates a long time ago.

Harry had always been attentive and knew who to give and what kind of gift to give.

"It's Christmas coming, do you have any plans?"

Hermione was actually looking forward to their Christmas holiday, although it wasn't very long, but it was the first time she came home since coming to Hogwarts, wasn't it?

"Earlier, Dad's letter said that if there was no case and McCroft had time, he would probably go out for a while, right?"

Harry didn't care where they were on vacation, or if they were traveling, he just cared if they could be with his family. Ron dragged his cheeks and looked at Harry and Thor, with a lot of envy in his heart, just before his parents had said that their brother was going to stay at Hogwarts for Christmas, because the two of them were going to see Charlie, his other brother.

"I'd like to read more books during the holidays, and you should remember who our Nicol Mailer is."

Harry nodded, there were still some things that hadn't been resolved, but there must be a way before the car reached the mountain, didn't there?

The day before the Christmas break, Harry got the chessboard he wanted from Draco's hand, which looked more expensive than the one Ron had taken before, both the chess pieces and the chessboard were made of crystals, crystals with magic. Harry looked at the chessboard and knew that he had almost spent the money he had given the boy, and he took it without saying anything, "Thank you, Malfoy." ”

How could a gift to Mycroft be too cheap, it seemed to Harry just right.

"Remember what you promised me, Harry Potter."

"Of course, please wait for my Christmas present, and by the way, please help me say hello to Mr. and Mrs. Malfoy, thank you for their help."

Harry shook the chessboard in his hand, and he was referring to this wizard's chess thing.

"I'll take it with all my might."

Draco tilted his head in a long tune, and Harry nodded, he was going back to get his bags home.

On the morning of Christmas break, Harry and Shorle left their bedroom with their belongings, saying goodbye to Ron, who couldn't go home, and saying that they would bring him a present.

There weren't many people left in the whole of Hogwarts, everyone had already picked up their bags and was ready to get on the express car home together, Harry Potter and Saul Odinson glanced at each other and stepped on the train home with Hermione, if they were still a little uncomfortable the last time they did the Hogwarts Express, now they can only describe their mood as happy. Harry had brought back a lot of books, some gifts, and two days before Christmas.

They already knew that Harry and the others were coming back, and on this day McCroft also pushed all his work to welcome the two little Les Streets home, and the rest of the bear children were already on vacation, although they were very welcome and happy for their brothers to come home.

Even if Loki is duplicitous and says that he doesn't want Thor back, Lestrade can feel the happiness of his third son, and his recent expression and relaxed and happy appearance have revealed little Loki's true thoughts. After all, Loki is still young, and he is arrogant on weekdays, but he still can't completely hide his feelings, and some small actions will betray his true thoughts.

That afternoon, they stood on the top of the nineth-three-quarters platform at King's Cross waiting for the arrival of the train that had carried the little Lestrades, and the whistle of the arrival of the train had already sounded on the platform, and the smile on Lestrade's lips could not be lowered, and he and Mycroft stood there with their fingers interlocked.

The train was getting closer and closer, and there were more and more people on the platform, there were many parents who had seen and had not seen each other, and there was a couple standing far away from everyone, if McCroft was not mistaken, these two should be Harry and Draco Malfoy's husband and wife in Saul's letter, and they looked very similar in terms of hair color and their habits.

McCorfaral's own lover, "Those two over there should be the Malfoys." ”

Lestrade took his attention away from the train a little, and after a sneaky glance, he said to Mycroft, "Shall we go say hello?" Whereas, Harry, Saul, and Mr. Malfoy Jr. are friends. ”

Mycroft shook his head, this couple obviously didn't want to contact everyone, so they would stand so far away, and Harry also said that the Malfoy family seemed to care about blood, and there was a lot of prejudice against Muggles, that is, them, if it was not necessary, it was better not to make further contact, and wait until it was necessary.

"What are you hesitating about, Mike?"

Mycroft said that not going doesn't mean that Lestrade will be obedient, in Lestrade's opinion, whether they like themselves or not, they just need to do all the things that save face.

Mycroft couldn't hold his lover and could only ask for help from the bear children, Loki was not in a state at all, and the other little ones didn't care about it, but Hannibal said: "If Harry wants to be friends with Malfoy, the Malfoys will know about it, I don't think they will give us a face, and given that they are a pure-blooded ancient wizarding family, there is no harm in touching them." Hannibal paused, and then said, "Besides, people are watching us, aren't they?" ”

Mr. and Mrs. Malfoy did see the Lestrades standing not far from them, and Mr. Malfoy was still quite critical of his son's contact with Harry, and he thought that they shouldn't have had any conversation after Harry had rejected Draco's hand, who knows...... His son was still a man who had no position, and he chose to be friends with Harry.

The most important thing is that his baby dragon still has a lot of curiosity about Harry, and a lot of the letters sent back are written about Harry Potter, especially the recent Gryffindor exclusion. Big Malfoy thinks that his precious son can't play Harry Potter compared to his scheming, and that the boy who never dies is really not that simple.

And this one is not simply from his family, that is, the group of people standing in front of him.

The two men interlocked their fingers, which was a rarity in the wizarding world, but it seemed that they didn't care about other people's eyes, which reminded Mr. Malfoy of the Mr. Potter in Draco's letter.

"What are you looking at, Lucius?"

Mr. Malfoy's full name is Lucius Malfoy, and he is the current head of the Malfoy family, and his wife is also from the old pure-blood family of the Black family, formerly known as Narcissa Black, and now Narcissa Malfoy. Lucius patted his wife's hand and made her look at the family not far away, "That's Harry Potter's family, I mentioned it before." ”

Yes, after returning from Diagon Alley, Mr. Malfoy the Great mentioned Harry Potter's adoptive fathers, and Narcissa looked in the direction Lucius had said, and saw a combination of two adults and seven children, and she opened the fan to cover her mouth in surprise, and then said slowly, "You never told me, Harry Potter has seven brothers?" ”

"It should be eight, you should remember that there is also Saul Odinson in Gryffindor, which was also mentioned in our little dragon's letter."

In fact, Lucius also knew that there were so many people in their family, and each child looked special...... Personality.

Narcissa was a lady after all, and she looked at the delicate-looking little Reistrode and smiled, especially after seeing the doll-like Raven, "The little princess of the Reistrid family?" Lucius, remember what I said, I wished we could have had another daughter. ”

Lucius also smiled, "Yes, yes, dear Sissi, of course you want us to have a daughter, otherwise you wouldn't have dressed Xiaolong like such a delicate girl when he was young." ”

The Malfoys have a lot of whispers, and they also have a lot of regrets, children in the wizarding world are rare, especially their pure-blooded families, such as the Weasleys, which are really strange in the wizarding world.

Although they were watching the Lestrade family, they didn't plan to go up and talk to them, no matter what kind of characters they raised, they were Muggles after all, didn't they?

However, when Reestrade and McCroft turned around, the Malfoys put away their previous smiles and put on a diplomatic Malfoy smile, knowing that Reestrade had come to greet them, and that their children were barely on "good" terms at Hogwarts.

If it were a normal Muggle couple, the two Malfoys would not give them a good face, but Lucius thought that the man in the suit and leather shoes might need to have a friendship, and by the way, they were Harry Potter's adoptive fathers after all, so he suppressed his dislike for Muggles.

"Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Malfoy."

As the David of Harry and Thor, Lestrade greeted the two men.

"Hello, Mr. Lestrade."

Lucius nodded slightly to Lestrade and McCroft, and Narcissa nodded gracefully, half-covering her cheek with a fan.

The first meeting between the Malfoys and the Lestrades can be described as harmonious.
