Chapter 173: Dawn

Ike had discovered a long time ago that, to some extent, the butterfly effect did exist, and many of the things he did produced different results than he remembered.

But if there are things that he doesn't interfere with, or if he pushes along the established path, he will go back to the established route.

After angrily scolding the Death Eaters, Comrade Fu led them back to the old Gaunt mansion next to the cemetery, where they needed to stay for a while until they had a better place to stay.

In the old house, Comrade Lao Fu naturally sat on the only chair, Nagini lay at his feet, and the snake's head rested on Comrade Lao Fu's knees, enjoying the caresses.

The Death Eaters who came over were divided into two columns and stood in the front TV series to go to court.

"Come here, little Ike, come next to me." Comrade Lao Fu stopped Ike, who wanted to stand at the back, called him to his side, and asked him to stand behind the chair.

"We need a new place, it's so shabby, it always makes me want to write bad things, I've had enough." Comrade Lao Fu said softly,

"Lucius, I don't think you'll mind."

"It's my pleasure, master." Old Malfoy bowed down and replied respectfully.

"Very well, I see your loyalty."

"Ah, loyalty......" Comrade Lao Fu sighed,

"This is the rarest quality in the world, you are all loyal, although you all have your own plans, but at least you are here......"

"With all due respect, master...... We're still here......"

"Wait a minute, Lucius, we need to wait." Comrade Lao Fu is very calm,

"The great Dark Lord is not stingy and loves to give his servants a second chance......"

"Tonight, there are still people who haven't come, and I will wait for them until dawn."

"As long as they come before dawn, the Dark Lord will forgive them for their sins, just as I have generously forgiven you."

"So, wait, keep waiting......" Comrade Lao Fu closed his eyes, leaned his back against the back of the chair, and gently stroked Nagini on his lap with his fingers.

Ike folded his hands in front of him, closed his eyes, and stood there motionless. Everyone waited, not making a sound, except for the occasional insect chirping from outside the old mansion, but it did not alleviate the oppressive atmosphere in the slightest.

"Smack!"

"Click, click, click" A few hours passed, and with a shrill crunch, loud footsteps came, and a tall man pushed the door in.

He was dressed in a pitch-black robe, striding a meteor, blowing the robe up and down like a bat.

"Master."

"Severus, you're here." Comrade Lao Fu opened his eyes, his red pupils stared at Snape who was kneeling in front of him, and without the slightest hesitation, he stretched out his wand and threw a heart curse.

Snape fell to the ground in pain, curled up, and let out a terrible roar. Fortunately, it didn't take long, about ten seconds later, Comrade Lao Fu stopped the heart drilling.

"You're late, Severus, this is your punishment, you shouldn't have a problem." Comrade Lao Fu said slowly, looking relaxed, as if he had done something trivial and taken for granted.

"I didn't ...... No, the master ......" Snape's forehead was covered with sweat and his face turned pale.

"So, tell me, why are you late, is it Hogwarts life that makes you forget your master?"

"No, master, no......," Snape explained, his voice still shaking,

"You don't know how happy I am when I feel your call, and I can't wait to see you right away......"

"But you don't, Severus." Comrade Lao Fu said,

"Tell me your reasons, and the Dark Lord will give you a chance to defend yourself......"

"I have never forgotten the task you gave me, master......"

"Go back to Dumbledore, spy on him, and report back to you." Snape eased a little, and his voice didn't tremble,

"When I sensed your calling, I thought it would be in your best interest for me to stay at Hogwarts at that time."

"Oh? Looks like you've brought me a gift, Severus. ”

"Yes, master, I have brought you the latest news about Dumbledore, Hogwarts, and Cornelius Fudge......" Snape spoke in a calm tone about what had happened to Comrade Volley since Harry's return to Hogwarts.

Barty Jr. and Ike's exposure, Dumbledore's handling, and Fudge's panic, and Barty Jr.'s ending......

"Bang!" When he heard that Fudge had brought a Dementor to see Barty, causing Barty Jr. to bear a kiss from a Dementor, Comrade Fu slapped the handle of the chair suddenly, his red eyes widened, and his thin nostrils opened a lot.

Everyone was too frightened to speak, like quails, and did not move. It took a long time for Comrade Fu to calm down, and with a slight lift of his wand-holding hand, Snape, who had fallen to his knees, stood up.

"Alright, Severus, thank you for bringing me the news you have shown your loyalty." Comrade Lao Fu said slowly,

"Even though that's not what I want to hear......"

"Wait until dawn......," Snape walked to the front of Comrade Fu's left-hand side and stopped, stood straight, closed his eyes like everyone else, and waited quietly.

Only this time, until the sun had fully risen from the east, no one came again.

"Lucius ......," Comrade Lao Fu said softly,

"Let's go, go to your castle ......"

"Yes, master." Old Malfoy bowed down,

"Allow me to arrange a ......"

"Go, go." Comrade Lao Fu waved his hand, and Old Malfoy owed again before walking out.

"Severus ......," said Comrade Lao Fu to Snape again,

"Go back, go back to Dumbledore and remember your mission."

"Yes, master."

"Let's go, let's go, it's enough to leave little Ike and Wormtail here." Comrade Lao Fu commanded,

"I will call you when I need it."

"Master, it's okay." It was a long time before old Malfoy returned. looked at the much empty room and was stunned for a moment, but there was no reaction, but he became more respectful.

"I called the carriage so it would be safer."

"Very well, Lucius, you are doing a good job." Comrade Lao Fu nodded, stood up, and walked out of the door first.

At his feet, Nagini followed. Worm Tail reacted slowly, but it was not too late, and before Comrade Lao Fu could reach the door, he rushed over and respectfully opened the door.

Outside the door, the ornate carriage engraved with the Malfoy family crest was parked, and the two Thestrals were shaking their heads a little restlessly.

"Let's go, little Ike, come up." Comrade Fu sat in the carriage and said to Ike, and Old Malfoy and Wormtail bent down at the right time.

"Okay, teacher." Ike agreed, boarded the carriage, and sat opposite Comrade Lao Fu.

"Let's go, Lucius." Wormtail closed the door of the carriage and sat down with old Malfoy.

Old Malfoy pulled the reins,

With a "drive", Thestrals immediately ran, pulling the carriage up slowly until it disappeared.
