Chapter 162: Soul Eater
On the first day of school, Brie was resting in the courtyard outside London.
Tom also lived here during this time, after which Brie was going to let Nicol stay here until they found a place where the family could live.
"You remember last night, if we are looking for a hidden place in England, we can ask for the help of Mr. Nicol Lemay, who is very experienced in seclusion, and as the old house of the family, I don't want anyone to be able to find it casually."
Brie said to Tom before he went out that Verle was already in Brie's pocket at this time, and as for Nicol, he was pretending to be a doll at this time and was being held by Brie.
Over the years, Nicol has grown a little bigger, the size of a baby's forearm.
"Don't be so vigilant, I've used the Ignore Charm, and ordinary people won't find out about you, Nicol." Brie rubbed Nicol's little head, which made Nicol laugh, Tom on the side thought about it, and quickly said: "I will look for it after going to Hogsmeade Village to talk about renting a shop, and when the time comes, I will let the owl deliver a letter to you as soon as possible, you can rest assured." ”
Tom often went out during this time to attend some parties, most of which were held by the owners of some shops, and a small number of small pure-blood families were also there, which was a stepping stone, and it was from here that Tom found his connections to rent a shop in Hogsmeade Village.
"Well, you have made you have a plan, then follow what you said, my current task is to study." Walking out the door, the group quickly boarded a short train to London, and soon arrived at King's Cross Station.
"Let's go."
Looking at the pillar in front of him, Brie and Tom quickly made their way through.
"Woooooo
The Hogwarts Express whistles in front, and there are many young wizards around, but most of them are talking to their parents.
"It's still early, Brie."
Tom rubbed his hair while Brie didn't care, and complained, "Do you want to say goodbye to us first, but I won't be able to wait until Christmas for you to officially come home." ”
Tom's eyes darkened, and he straightened Brie's clothes and said, "Maybe you can come back with the notes at any time, but be careful, Hogwarts Castle is not so simple, when it fully wakes up, the notes are likely to be useless, it is wise, dear Brie, now it just hasn't been woken up by Dumbledore." ”
"Are you worried that the Corner Tower is not safe, Tom?"
Brie looked at Tom, who knew a lot about Hogwarts, which might have helped Brie.
"Do you know the treasure of the Big Four, this can't really be a legend, right?"
"Treasure?"
With a smile in his eyes, Tom whispered, "Hogwarts, there is no treasure at all. ”
"Yes, it is the legacy left by the Big Four, and they don't like gold and silver wealth."
Brie squinted at Tom and said impatiently, "Tell me quickly, don't play dumb riddles." ”
"Huh." Tom laughed and replied, "Slytherin's chamber, in his mouth, that's where the chamber is, you can go and see it later, but I hope you don't believe anything in it..."
"Slytherin: What they've studied in the second half of their lives goes beyond what exists in the wizarding world, and you might look like you're going to be confused."
Tom laughed again and sneered, "Slytherin must have been the old Hutu, who left Hogwarts alone after hearing the news of a false thing. ”
Tom didn't go on the subject, he just said, "You'll know when you go, and as for the password, I think you can guess, it was in the book "The Secret of Slytherin" last year. ”
"Woooooo
As Brie and Tom were talking, Brie felt something whimpering in her footsteps.
He looked.
"It's you, big black dog."
Brie said quirkily, "How did you get in... You're there in Diagon Alley, are you a wandering magical creature? ”
"Everyone's attention, guard separately!"
At this moment, a group of Aurors walked in from nine and three-quarters of a pillar away, a man who looked like the captain of the Aurors commanded the rest of the Aurors, and Brie vaguely heard them talking about Eater of Souls.
"Woo!"
The big black dog next to Brie leaned closer to Brie's side, and the Aurors walked past Brie before the big black dog stopped and left silently.
"Brie, there may be something wrong with this dog." Tom could tell at a glance that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell.
"There are some wizards who will unite with magical beasts and do things that go beyond the rules, Brie, this dog is just using you to avoid the attention of the Aurors, even if the little wizards are not allowed to take the dog to Hogwarts, but obviously this is not under the Aurors' control, they will only treat you as a rebellious little guy."
Tom watched the big black dog sneak onto the train, and he curled the corners of his mouth and said, "It's interesting, maybe it's going to Hogwarts." ”
Brie looked down and thought for a moment, then he said, "I've seen it in Diagon Alley before, a stray dog, maybe it's looking for its owner, and this owner is at Hogwarts." ”
Glancing at Tom, they didn't have the idea of interfering, which was something Dumbledore was supposed to deal with.
"Then I'm leaving, Tom."
Brie waved his hand to Tom, and then said to Nicol: "Don't be crazy, take care of those flowers, and when I find the location of the family house, I will take away the flower beds in the courtyard outside London, and you be careful, don't lose your temper with Verne." ”
Brie's notes were with them, and now Nicol and they had to rely on Floo Net if they wanted to shuttle between Diagon Alley and the courtyard outside London, and it was the Magic Legend Circle that had only recently been installed by Floo Net.
"Nicol will miss Daddy."
Verr also came out of Brie's pocket, and said, "Don't forget to come back to see us just because you study magic, and I don't think I need to tell you about sleeping and eating." ”
……
After saying goodbye to Tom and the others, Brie made his way to Draco's carriage, it was still early, Draco hadn't arrived yet.
"Dong Dong Dong Dong..."
"I'm in."
Not long after Brie sat down, Draco's voice came from outside the carriage, but it sounded like Draco was a little upset, maybe someone was bullying him?
"Oh, Merlin, Brie you must not know what happened to me, the little daughter of the Greengrasses, and I don't know what she pestered me for, is it because of those stupid words, really, I shouldn't have gone to the Greengrass house dinner with my mother during the holidays and made all my troubles."
Draco sat down next to Brie and pulled out a small box from his pocket, which quickly grew larger, it was a wooden food box, and he said, "Try it, my mom made a snack." ”
"Thanks, I'm hungry right now." Brie took the snack and ate it slowly.
"Dongdong, I can ......"
"No, Miss Greengrass." As soon as Draco heard the voice, he immediately said, "It's full, maybe you should go find Daphne." ”
But after Draco finished speaking, Astoria Greengrass still opened the door, she was dressed in a beautiful lady's robe, and she held a box of chocolate snacks in her hand, she looked into the carriage expectantly, and when she saw Draco with a stinky face, she lowered her head a little nervously, but quickly mustered up her courage and slowly walked into the carriage.
"Oh, really." Draco looked at Astoria holding a snack, and mocked unhappily, "What are you doing here, do you think that my mother said a few words about you cute, that you are a good girl, and you think that you can step in..."
Before Draco could finish speaking, Astoria took the chocolate snack and handed it to the cloth that Draco had given him, and whispered shyly, "I saw you just now, I heard that you like to eat, so I took some snacks for you, Ode." ”
"I learned it with my mom, and she complimented me on how delicious the chocolate lemonades I made were so good that you could try them."
Brie smelled the scent of lemon and the sweetness of chocolate, and he thought, maybe he could try it.
"Thank you, Miss Greengrass."
Brie took the snack and thanked him, while Astoria hurriedly said, "You can call me As." ”
Astoria shyly lowered her head, and before Brie could speak, she hurried out and into the noisy train corridor.
"Oh, you can call me As... You say yes, Brie. ”
Draco snorted and closed the door of the carriage, hoping to cut off some of the commotion outside, and I don't know who did the big thing again, could it be that Potter has become a girl again?
It was only at the end of the semester that Snape hesitated to take out the potion and transform Harry and Ron back to their original ways, so that they no longer had to drag their long hair every day and doubt life in the shower at night.
Draco sat down next to Brie and pulled the chocolate lemoncandy from Brie's hand.
"Don't eat what the little girl gives, you must know that there is such a thing as a love potion in this world, and it only takes a drop to scream stupidly, saying 'I love you, Oude', you know?"
Draco blushed and tossed the snack aside, ready to be eaten by Goyle and Brac later.
Brie leaned back in the soft chair and continued to eat Draco's snack, making Draco nod in satisfaction.
"That Greengrass is very interesting, you must know that she has an older sister in her family, but I don't know why, but the head of her family is so doting on her little daughter, so that Daphne is a little strange to her."
"There are only two daughters in this generation of the Greengrass family, and I don't know who will inherit the family business, maybe it will be the youngest daughter, if you marry her, you will definitely change your surname to Greengrass, Brie, you should stay away from her, there is no girl in the pure-blood family who is not a many."
"Don't talk about Draco, I'm not interested in a little girl, especially if I'm only thirteen." Brie finished the last bite of the snack and set the box aside.
Draco heard Brie's words and huffed, "yes, thirteen, but I'm starting to look for girls, and!" ”
Speaking of this, Draco said viciously to Brie, "Didn't you stuff the picture of Potter turned into a girl in an envelope for my mother to see!" ”
"It's going to be humiliating, my mother was happy to find out whose girl this was at first, as long as it wasn't Muggle or poor, you could consider it, but ...... This is Potter, a boy. ”
Draco slumped on the couch with his back in his head, and said weakly, "Do you know how my mom taught me to stay away from Potter, my dad said before that you must not be cold to the savior when everyone is smiling, but now, he also told me to leave the savior behind and study hard, otherwise he will transfer me to Durmstrang in the north." ”
"Poof..."Brie couldn't help but laugh as Ron and Harry's voices rang out outside.
"Oh, that's cool, I've got a unicorn, it's a magical creature that can bring luck to heroes, come on, let's go find Hermione, Ode gave her a set of fantasy games, there's a chuck in it, I need to see the power of unicorns!"
"Ron, slow down, it hurts."
"My hands are red."
In the corridor of the train, Ron pulled Harry and ran quickly, and the little wizards on the side dodged, Percy saw it and shouted for them to stop, but the excited Ron couldn't care so much.
Harry sighed inwardly, but kept up with his friend.
Inside the carriage, Draco snorted, "Potter, and the red-haired guys, I hope the train starts in a while, don't throw them out, I won't let them fly in mid-air this year, those ......"
"Woooooo
Before Draco could finish speaking, the train whistled, and a loud roar sounded, and the carriage shook, and soon started, heading towards Hogwarts.
"Brie, you don't know, the Ministry of Magic actually put the Eater of Souls into Hogwarts because it was worried about Blake, and let these emotionless monsters be guarded!"
"Eater of Souls as a guard?"
Brie heard Draco's words suddenly, it turned out that those Aurors on the platform were talking about this, but weren't the Eaters of Souls originally guarding Azkaban, they were also a torture instrument for the prisoners, by sucking the happiness of the prisoners, leaving the prisoners with only pain, life is worse than death, and they will be tortured day by day.
And the Lifestealers are coming to Hogwarts... This is definitely not good news.
Brie frowned, it seems that this year is not peaceful, the Ministry of Magic is obviously taking this opportunity to infiltrate Hogwarts, just because Dumbledore left a handle on the issue of the basilisk last year, as well as the relationship between Blake and Harry, so the Ministry of Magic found an excuse to insert the Dementors in.
"Dongdong Dong,"
"Brie, are you there?"
It was Hermione's voice.
Draco snorted, opened the door, looked at Hermione and said, "What are you doing here, Granger." ”
Hermione glanced up at Draco and said to the inside of the carriage, "It's about the fantasy game, I want to ask if I can buy some more cards, Ron drew a unicorn, I can't beat him now!" ”
Hermione's expression was a little angry, her luck was not very good, in the ten packs of cards that Brie gave her, she didn't draw a high-level card, and she could still use her wits to defeat Ron before, but when the unicorn appeared, with the luck bonus, Hermione fell into disadvantage.
"Oh, you'll have to wait, we can go to Hogsmeade in third form, I think you know that."
It is mentioned on the book list that the third grade allows parents to sign a consent form and go to Hogsmeade Village on weekends to do their own business.
"Hogsmeade Village, where are you going to open a branch!"
The clever Hermione immediately thought of the meaning of Brie's words, but she couldn't wait to say, "Do you have any good cards in your hand, give them to me first, I have to teach that arrogant Wes a lesson." ”
Cards?
Brie fumbled in his pocket.
"The only one I have for Draco is the one I have."
Brie took out the Illusion game and handed it to Draco, "The opening gift, I don't know if you've heard of it if you've been attending the party." ”
Draco gave him a reserved look, then said, "I thought you wouldn't give it to me." ”
Draco glanced at Hermione haughtily and handed out a pack of cards.
"It's all up to your luck, Miss Granger."
Hermione took the card pack and thanked awkwardly, "I'll pay you back, Malfoy, but thank you." ”
Hermione said goodbye and was about to close the door, but it was, a cold wind came out, and Brie felt a breath of death drift towards her, and the light around her became dim, as if something was covering the train......
