Chapter 14: Hogwarts Castle
Draco Malfoy really didn't expect to see Rig here.
After the last feast, Lucius Malfoy returned home furious, and only his mother, Narcissa, dared to come forward to appease him.
Even Draco, who was the most favored and asked for something on weekdays, was driven back to his room.
Draco watched quietly from the corner of the stairs, not daring to go down, for fear of crashing into Lucius's anger.
Without annexing the Dai family, it was a small matter, and a mistake in decision-making or even the inability to fight back on the spot was a big problem.
This incident directly shook the position of the leader of the Malfoy family, and Lucius did not close his eyes for several days.
He has been working on the plan, finalizing what he thinks is the perfect counterattack plan before contacting allies again and reassuring people.
Originally, he watched his father slowly calm down, and discussed with other allies through the fireplace how to completely take down the Dai family.
Draco thought that the stinky boy he had met at the banquet was going to be finished.
Who can stop them from the Malfoys?
A happy Draco even drank the juice Narcissa had prepared for dinner that day.
Instead of having to eat properly after Nacissa promised to buy him the toys he wanted, or a broomstick, as she had done before.
But the next day, as soon as Draco woke up and went downstairs, he saw his father sitting silently at the round table on the first floor with a gloomy face.
It was littered with letters, and even the torn Daily Prophet and the Wizarding Weekly, which my mother loved to read in private.
Draco didn't know what was happening, only a premonition.
His mother crept up to him and motioned for him not to go down, and that breakfast would be brought to his room by Dobby.
Draco wanted an answer, but couldn't help his mother.
I had to grit my father's teeth, "Damn the old bees!" He roared back to his room.
After that, the Malfoy Mansion was very depressed for a while, and the mere competition with another pure-blood family for the position of leader made Lucius unskilled.
Even the Light Wheel 2000 that Draco wanted, Lucius didn't accompany him to buy it.
This also made Draco remember the name Heimdall Day and the Dai family completely.
"Heimdall Day," Draco said the name slowly, his scrutinizing gaze sweeping over Rig.
It's still that nasty, and it looks happy.
This made Draco feel even worse.
"If it were you, Potter, I'd be very careful." He said slowly.
"You should be polite, or you will follow the same path as your parents. They don't know what to do. If you hang out with someone like the Weasleys or Heimdall, you're going to be affected. ”
Not wanting to embarrass himself in front of the savior Harry Potter, Draco just casually said a few cruel words and hurried away with Goyle and Crabbe.
However, next time, he will definitely let Harry Potter see clearly what kind of person he should befriend.
At least not Heimdall, who was good for nothing, and the family was sooner or later in their Malfoy's pocket.
After the obnoxious Draco had left with his two henchmen, the box was filled with a sense of merriment.
Rig spoke in Draco's long voice, "Harry Port, I- would not have ...... if - you ——, me"
It made Ron and Harry giggle and burst out laughing.
By this time it was already dark, and under the deep purple sky there were mountains and woods, and the train had slowed down.
The joy slowly wore off, and both Ron and Harry became nervous.
"The train will arrive at Hogwarts in five minutes, please leave your luggage on the train and we'll take you to the school." A male voice echoes across the train.
Rig knew that the sorting ceremony didn't require fighting dragons, but it was so much fun to guess with Harry and Ron what the hell was going to be done.
Seriously, Harry looked nervous and throwing up, retching from time to time.
Ron's face turned pale under the freckles, and his whole body was shaking, but he didn't know it.
The train slowed down and finally stopped.
The little wizards pushed and shoved and rushed to the car door.
The queue went down to a small, dark platform.
The night chill made Rig shiver, and when he turned his head, he saw Harry and Ron rubbing their hands together, trying to warm themselves.
Then a lamp flickered above the students' heads, and Harry heard a familiar voice shouting, "First year! First-year students are here! Harry, come over here, are you alright? ”
The trio looked up to see Hagrid's bushy bearded face smiling, and Doudou's eyes glowing black in the light.
"Come on, come with me, are there any new first-year students? Watch out for the soles of your feet, all right! First-year students come with me! ”
They stumbled after Hagrid, seemingly down a steep and narrow path.
It was pitch black on both sides of the path, and Rig looked at Harry and Ron vaguely with a bad expression.
Again began his Malfoy show.
It amused Harry and Ron, who were a little scared, at once.
Rig took the opportunity to ask a few more questions, and slowly, the whole team was filled with the chatter of the little wizard.
The boy who had lost the toad sniffed once or twice, saying he wanted pumpkin chowder.
"Turn this corner, and you'll soon see Hogwarts for the first time." Hagrid shouted back.
It's a pity that there are few little wizards who pay attention to him, and everyone is talking about themselves in groups of three or five.
At the end of the narrow path, a black lake suddenly unfolded, sparkling in the moonlight. On the high hillside on the other side of the lake rises a majestic castle with spires and windows twinkling under the stars.
"No more than four people per boat!" Hagrid exclaimed, pointing to a group of small boats moored to the shore. Rig, Harry, and Ron got into the boat, and Hermione followed.
"Are you all on board?" Hagrid shouted, and he was in a boat by himself. "That's good...... Let's go! ”
A group of small boats immediately rowed across the lake and headed forward.
There were no little wizards chatting at this moment, and everyone was silent, staring silently at the huge castle that reached into the sky, and the top of the castle even seemed to touch the moon.
"Keep your head down!" As the first boats approached the cliff, Hagrid shouted.
Everyone bowed their heads, and the boat carried them through the ivy curtain that covered the cliff front to the secluded open entrance. They followed a pitch-black tunnel that seemed to lead to the castle underneath, and finally reached a place that resembled an underground pier, and then climbed up to the ground of gravel and small pebbles.
"Hey, look at it! Is this your toad? The students disembarked, Hagrid said as he counted the empty boats.
"Thank you, Merlin!" Neville shouted in ecstasy as he stretched out his arms, hugging the struggling toad and not letting go.
Illuminated by Hagrid's lantern, they climbed a tunnel in the rocks and finally reached a flat, damp meadow in the shadow of the castle. They climbed a stone staircase and gathered in front of a large oak door.
"Are you all there? Look, your toad is still there, right? Hagrid raised a large fist and slammed it three times on the castle gate.
