Chapter 82: On the Train
Early the next morning, just as everyone else was about to leave, Benjamin found Draco with an unhappy face. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Why did you get here. Draco lifted his eyelids, looking a little surprised, "I thought you'd go straight home." ”
"Do you remember Hermione's sneaky potions?" said Benjamin with a smile, ignoring Draco's look of disgust.
"Remember, you know what they're going to do?" Draco's tone sounded smug.
"Of course, they should want to be like Kebra and Goyle, and find something they want from you. It is estimated that it has something to do with the secret room. ”
Draco laughed and shook his head, "I don't know much about the Chamber of Secrets, she really can figure it out." ”
Benjamin leaned into Draco's ear and whispered, "You shouldn't be fooled, right?" Seeing Draco nod, Benjamin added, "My father and I mentioned that Malfoy Manor was being searched by the Ministry of Magic. ”
"Oh, it's alright," Draco kept staring at his hands, "they're not going to find out." ”
By this time, Pansy and Daphne were already waving their hands there, their voices loud and penetrating.
"Benjamin, hurry, or we won't be able to catch the train!"
Draco immediately nudged Benjamin, "Merry Christmas!"
Benjamin chuckled and said Merry Christmas in return, and followed the crowd onto the train.
The first semester of the second year was spent in an atmosphere of horror and suspicion.
There were many students who mentioned Harry with a sense of happiness for the rest of their lives.
"I thought he was going to get on this train too, and I was scared to death. A Hufflepuff student, nervously stroking his chest.
A girl next to her shook her head even more exaggeratedly, "It's terrible, I dreamed yesterday that I had turned into a stone statue." I thought it was all true!"
The Hufflepuff student screamed with empathy, "Oh dear, if I were you, I'd be horrified by this dream." I wouldn't want to come to school next semester if I could. ”
I don't know if it was because of the resonance of this student's words, many people began to discuss it, and some people were even more eager for the Ministry of Magic to pay attention to this matter.
"My uncle works at the Ministry of Magic, and I must tell him the importance of this matter when I go back this time, so that he can put pressure on the Ministry of Magic to close the school!"
"That's right, and Dumbledore didn't care about us at all, and he didn't even come out to say a word about all this going on. A Ravenclaw girl puffed up, her glasses thick with a bottle cap full of wisdom.
"Seriously, why are they so indulgent to Harry?"
Pansy sat across from Benjamin and said incredulously as she threw the chocolate frog into her mouth.
"Why are you looking at me?" Benjamin just listened intently, only to find that everyone else was looking at him in shock.
"We, well, we just thought you were going to have your own opinion on the subject. Pansy shrugged her shoulders, as she should be.
"Me?" said Benjamin, gesturing to himself, and then in an uncanny voice, "Well, you really think too much of me. But isn't it normal for Dumbledore to indulge Harry?"
Daphne also looked at Benjamin with interest at this time, and she sat beside Benjamin in a very ladylike position.
"Harry was the only one who survived Voldemort's hands, he wasn't just a human being, he was more of a symbol, a symbol. Benjamin said, gesturing, and then looked at the crowd very seriously.
"Do you understand?"
Pansy and Daphne nodded, and Astoria looked unmotivated, lying on the table, not knowing what to think.
At this time, there was another knock on the door of their carriage.
"Who could it be?" Pansy said curiously, the carriage seemed empty today because of the absence of Draco and the three of them.
After opening the door, an emaciated boy appeared in the doorway.
Benjamin had some surprises.
"Lucien, long time no see. Benjamin greeted him.
Behind Lucien came a pimple-riddled head.
"Hey, Benjamin, you guys look pretty empty here. ”
"Senior Carl?" said Benjamin, somewhat uncertain, he hadn't seen much since the Malfoy family's banquet.
At school, he also looks very mysterious.
Carl Black nodded and patted Lucien on the back hard, his strength making Benjamin a little worried that Lucien would just fall apart.
"It's been a long time since we've seen each other, and you guys like to sit at the end of the long table. Karl's tone sounded reproachful.
At this point, Pansy and Daphne both looked at Benjamin curiously, and Astoria was still sleeping.
"Well, just because of habit. Benjamin was a little helpless, and he introduced to Pansy and Daphne, "This is Lucien, who is in the same grade as us. ”
Lucien immediately greeted the crowd, and then sat down to Pansy's warm hospitality.
He looked strangely weak, Benjamin thought.
Then, Benjamin pointed at Carl and said, "He's Carl Black, and the Black family doesn't need me to talk about it, our senior." ”
Soon, Pansy and Daphne both introduced themselves, and Daphne introduced her sister in passing.
"I'm just a distant relative of the Black family," Carl explained with a wave of his hand when he saw everyone's enthusiasm, "I'm just an ordinary wizard." ”
Pansy's enthusiasm immediately diminished a lot, and if it was the Black family, it would definitely be a boost for the Parkinsons.
But distant relatives, that's almost like some small family.
"I see," Daphne still straightened up, maintaining her graceful posture, "and you're still related to Draco." ”
Carl immediately laughed, he's the kind of guy you find particularly approachable.
"That's right, Draco and I are cousins, too!" Karl added, with a shrewd roll of his eyes, "Actually, most of us noble families are more or less related. ”
Benjamin didn't know if it was his delusion, and the joy on Daphne's face seemed to fade a little.
"That's right. She whispered, but turned her head to look out the window.
