371. Chapter VII
After worrying all night, and waking up early the next morning, Draco was thinking about what excuse to use to go to his godfather, "by the way" to see if Min was okay!
And Min will have a magical riot, which has never appeared in his memory.
So can he expect that Minhui will be different now?
Min - Will it also "come back"?
But Draco, who had thought about it for a long time and still hadn't thought of any "reasonable" excuse, was a little melancholy.
On the other hand, Hogwarts' Horrible Potions professor is also very entangled.
When she woke up in the morning, Severus, who hadn't seen Hermione come out for a long time, was worried that she would kill herself by doing something in her room after thinking about Hermione's feat of falling down in a wheelchair and almost "slitting her wrists" last night.
It's just that as a professor, he can't just break into his student's bedroom without the permission of his master.
Finally, after a long struggle, Severus called the house-elf and asked him to see if the little troll had killed himself in the room.
Hermione was really "hehe" when she saw the house-elf who suddenly appeared in her room.
With the help of the house-elf, Hermione changed her clothes, washed up, and went out.
Severus raised an eyebrow when he saw Hermione appear in his office unharmed.
Severus, who knew how to "take care" of Hermione in the future, thought it was a good day.
Sure enough, the little wizard should still be handed over to the house-elf to take care of after all.
Calling the house-elf and having him prepare two breakfasts, Severus and Hermione set off on their day.
But while Severus and Hermione were having breakfast, there was a knock on the door.
Both Severus and Hermione, who were interrupted, frowned unconsciously.
Severus waved his wand and opened the door.
Draco regretted it when he walked into Severus's office.
He hadn't figured out what excuse to use to find his godfather, so he rushed here so rashly, really—not cautiously.
But now that he has come, he can only enter the door with his head struck.
"Draco, what is it that makes you so disrespectful of etiquette and run to interrupt someone's meal while they're having breakfast. Or I should tell your father and let him arrange for you to re-study the benefits. At the very least, you should learn not to disturb others for breakfast. Perhaps—a good choice to copy the Malfoy House Rules. ”
Draco, who hadn't heard his godfather spray poison on him for many years, couldn't help but reddened his eyes when he heard his godfather's words.
Although he had already been an adult for many years, and even his son had grown into an excellent Malfoy who could take charge of himself, Draco would inevitably rely on and feel aggrieved when facing his elders, as he did when he was a child.
Especially after he faced the difficulties of so many ill-intentioned people alone.
"The Godfather—"
Severus's brow furrowed even more as he looked at Draco's aggrieved expression.
What's wrong with this little cub?
Bullied?
But in Slytherin, who would be so blind to bully the heirs of the Malfoy family, you must know that although Malfoy received a blow after that battle, but even so, the Malfoy family is not an existence that other nobles can provoke and provoke.
"Draco, did you come to me, even at the expense of interrupting my breakfast, just to stare at me?"
Before, when he had just "returned", he had always been careful to avoid the opportunity to be alone with his godfather, because he knew that with his godfather's shrewdness and vigilance, he would definitely find out that he was different.
After all, he used to be really naïve.
And he was afraid that he would not be able to control his emotions and reveal any flaws.
After all, the godfather is also a family member that Malfoy values.
Fortunately, many days have passed now, and my emotions have almost adjusted, at least in the face of the godfather, there should be no flaws.
It should be—it won't!
I couldn't help but look at Min secretly, and at the same time, my mind was racing, thinking about what kind of "excuse" to use to explain the reason why he came to the godfather early in the morning.
"Godfather, I want to be on our house's Quidditch team!"
Hmmm-
Very good reason!
I used to love Quidditch.
(Although later, after being "taught" by Min, I also felt that it was stupid to ride on a broom.) )
And he flies very well, otherwise he wouldn't have become a Slytherin Seeker in his second year.
You must know that with Slytherin's principle of focusing on profit, just a few broomsticks are not enough to make the whole Slytherin "give up" of Quidditch.
Now, after the Savior was made an exception to join the Gryffindor Quidditch team in his first year, he asked to join the Quidditch team in Slytherin - I guess it's over!
Draco said as he stole a sneak peek at Hermione.
"Team Quidditch? I thought Lucius should have taught you what to do and when. Now that you're a first-year student, a baby who has just left the wings of your parents, all you have to do now is fill your empty brain with knowledge, not about having fun and going to Quidditch teams. ”
"But that Potter, who was also a freshman in his first year, is now on Gryffindor's Quidditch team."
Draco tried to look like a vexatious child, just like he once was.
In fact, he seemed to want to come to the godfather and ask to join the Quidditch team, but at that time, he was naïve and did not understand the godfather's unique way of caring, because he was afraid of being sprayed with poison by the godfather, so he did not come to the cellar in the end.
"That's not something you should be concerned about, now—at once, go back to your dorm or go to the hall for your breakfast, if you can make it."
Severus was visibly emotional when he heard Draco hear about Savior Potter joining Gryffindor's Quidditch team.
Although his expression was still as scary as ever.
But both Hermione and Draco could feel his mood swings.
Hermione lowered her head and covered her resentful eyes with her bangs.
If Heaven allows, she really wants to gather Lily Evans's soul and then scatter her again.
Hate - really hate -
And now, Draco was uncomfortable too.
Coming from the "future", Draco naturally knew that his godfather paid special attention to the Savior Potter, and he couldn't help but be jealous.
Harry Potter - The savior who was destined to be extraordinary from birth.
The friendship of a Malfoy, who rejected himself on the Hogwarts Express, became friends with the poor Weasley.
Ever since he entered the school, Dumbledore has paved the way for him, and he has escorted him all the way to glory - stepping on Slytherin and walking to glory.
recalled his childish behavior - in fact, in the final analysis, he was just unwilling and competing for favor.
Unwilling to be self-The heir of the Malfoy family was rejected by the savior, and the godfather who was unwilling to be himself also paid more attention to the savior, unwilling to be the focus of attention wherever he was a child, and became a foil by the side of the savior.
That's why he was so naïve to provoke the Savior, to compete for his godfather's attention, to compete for the attention of others, and to make the Savior regret his choice on the Hogwarts Express.
What a childish idea!
"So what does the Godfather think is the right thing to do? Wait until Dumbledore has arranged everything for his savior boy to step on all the first-year Slytherin to 'glory', until all the young wizards of our generation have become the savior's foil, or until - we Slytherins have been forced to 'have no choice', and then let us take care of the things that should be in our care. ”
Thinking of what would happen soon, Draco, who had grown to the point of bringing the "embattled" Malfoy family back to its peak, couldn't control his emotions a little.
Hermione, taking advantage of Draco's words, had almost gotten out of control again, and sat there, quietly watching Draco anger Severus and then be driven out of the cellar by him.
As early as Draco entered the cellar, she could sense that Draco was different.
His soul was stable and solid, stronger than any of the little Hogwarts wizards—even some of the professors—and it wasn't the soul of a young wizard at all.
And later, after hearing what Draco said, Hermione was even more sure that he was different.
After all, the naïve, tsundere child who used to be couldn't say these words.
Therefore, Hermione was very sure that Draco had been "replaced".
Eventually, she felt it, and Draco had been peeking at her, her eyes full of worry.
Of course, the most important thing is that she felt her own magic in Draco's magic, and the way Draco's magic works is very familiar to her.
Now Hermione was 100% sure that this Draco was the kid she had ever known.
Originally, whoever replaced Draco was fine, as long as he wasn't hostile to Severus.
But once that child "came back", so much the better.
After all, she is a child who has been trained and taught by herself for so many years, and she misses him a little!
