"Tell me, Mr. Thief, what is your purpose?"

Dudley looked at the other party and whispered, "If you tell me honestly, you will suffer less." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the other party let out a high-pitched scream.

"Dobby is not a thief, Dobby just wants to take that dangerous thing."

"Your name is Dobby." Dudley straightened up and looked at the other party condescendingly, "So what are you going to take?" ”

"Dobby can't say!"

"Harry Potter is in danger!"

"The Dursleys are a good man, they adopted the savior Potter, and Dobby can't hurt them!"

Speaking of this, the other party slammed his head on the ground with a dull sound.

"Bad is better than bad!"

Although the order was slightly reversed, Dudley barely understood.

"You're protecting Harry?"

"Harry Potter is so great, he defeated the man whose name can't be said!"

Voldemort's prestige is taboo even among domestic elves.

That's a crazy guy after all.

In his heyday, the killing never stopped.

"Someone is trying to kill Harry Potter."

"Hogwarts is dangerous."

"Bad Dobby, Bad Dobby."

Without saying a few words, Dobby started banging his head on the floor again.

Dudley suddenly thought of Harry's recent 'date' bad luck.

"You're not going to help Harry in your own way, are you?"

"Hogwarts is dangerous, and Harry Potter can't stay here."

Dobby didn't admit it, but it made no difference between what he said and what he did.

The stone hammer is really made of this thing.

A second of silence for our Harry, his bad luck is man-made

"So the next question, is it your personal act to protect Harry or is it your master's will?" Dudley asked, looking at the other man.

House-elves are very loyal creatures who will carry out their master's orders.

Of course, the one in front of me may be an exception.

"The old master hates Harry Potter, the little master doesn't know, Dobby can't watch Harry Potter have an accident, bad Dobby, bad Dobby."

"That's your personal behavior, huh?" Dudley said, "You were the one who messed up my bedroom before, right?" ”

"Don't you know that it's very dangerous to touch a wizard's thing?"

Knock knock. Dobby stopped answering, just kept banging his head against the floor.

That is, the head case of the house elf is relatively hard, otherwise it will have to hit a concussion.

"That's enough."

Dudley was a little upset by the other party's self-harming behavior, and asked knowingly, "Last question, who is your master?" ”

"Dobby can't say."

Smack

Dobby snapped his fingers again, only this time the magic was not invalid, but the refining array under his feet was gradually disappearing.

"Dobby is leaving, goodbye Mr. Dursley."

It is impossible for ordinary house-elves to break Dudley, and Dudley has tested this with house-elves, and there are more than a hundred of them in the castle.

The data from Dudley's study was also obtained from the kitchen.

Originally, Dudley thought that an adult wizard who was not good at fighting would not be able to defeat the house-elves on his own.

But he was wrong to come to this conclusion based on his research.

The magic system of house-elves is indeed different from that of wizards, but the strength is not too much, not to mention adult wizards with rods, and maybe the junior wizards in the upper grades also have the ability to defeat them independently.

Are house-elves strong? To be honest, if you exclude magic that is different from the wizarding system, the power is really average, and if it is specifically targeted, it is far less threatening than the wizard's old rival goblin.

It's also a bit tricky to be able to use shapeshifting at Hogwarts.

This is evident in the final battle at Hogwarts in the original books, where they are no different from Muggle men when they enter the Great War, and a group of elves with pots and pans and knives and forks as weapons need to be swarmed in order to subdue a single Death Eater.

But. The Dobby in front of him is an exception.

Dudley was interested.

If you were to be any of the house-elves in the castle, you would never be able to escape the trap created by Dudley.

Should Dobby belong to the best of house-elves, or an elite-level house-elf?

It seems that the individual value of each house-elf is different.

"So."

"Picsi."

The Cornish elf appeared in front of him, and with Dobby's snap of his fingers, he snapped his fingers in the same way, blue powder running across his fingertips.

Something unexpected happens to Dobie, and he uses magic. But it did not take effect.

"I'm afraid you can't go, you can't use shapeshifting here."

If the house-elves' magic is specifically targeted, it will greatly reduce their combat power.

It's a pity that Dudley has studied it specifically

"Pixie's magic is no worse than yours." Dudley spoke a fact.

With the passage of time, Pixi, who has evolved once, has also shown amazing talent, and under the influence of domestication, Pixi's growth rate has also reached an astonishing level.

It's a pity. There is only one of them.

The rest are still a bunch of petty tricksters.

Well, an enhanced version of the tricksters or a bunch of Peeves?

"Let me guess, your name is Dobby's a house elf. There are two owners in the family, one old and one young."

"So. You're from the Malfoy family. ”

Unexpectedly, his magic failed, Dobby looked a little helpless, and his eyes widened even more after hearing Dudley's words.

If you have a house-elf, it must be pure-blood, and there are only a few pure-blood families turning over and over.

Even if Dudley didn't know anything, it wouldn't take much time just to guess.

"Dobby didn't say anything."

"Bad Dobby, Bad Dobby!"

This time Dobby banged his head against the cabinet.

Each house-elf is contractually bound by its owner, and their actions are governed by the contract until they are actively terminated.

"Then I'll guess. You don't mean anything dangerous, do you? ”

As Dudley spoke, a staircase slowly rose from the ground, and an unidentified gelatinous black mass lay silently on it.

Those were the remains of the diary.

Dobby screamed in surprise, "Mr. Dursley has ruined the old master's plot." ”

"Harry Potter is safe!"

"Harry has always been safe."

Dudley said something else: "It's just that I've been unsafe lately because of some people. ”

Harry's first love was also aborted because of someone's intervention, and poor Harry made us mourn for a second. Burst. It's so miserable.

"It's all the old master's conspiracy."

Dobby didn't even understand the meaning of Dudley's words.

"Dobby can't speak ill of the master, and bad Dobby is worse than bad."

As he spoke, he was about to hit his head against the wall again, but this time Dudley blocked it with his palm.

"Dobby, I can see that you're not your average house-elf, you have a strong sense of autonomy, so do you want to be free?"

"I think we can make a deal."
