A day at Hogwarts

The dark corridor, the howling cold wind, the most evil Peeves in Hogwarts, and the students who the Sorting Hat thought should go directly to Azkaban without taking more than ten years of detours were having a confusing conversation.

"Have you got that thing?" Charles asked in a low voice.

Peeves replied: "I got it. It's just like you said. It's a terrible monster. But I have a condition."

Charles frowned and said unhappily: "This is different from what was promised."

Peeves turned to leave.

Charles had no choice but to ask him: "What conditions?"

Peeves flew in front of him and asked seriously: "Are you learning magic with others outside of Hogwarts?"

Charles was silent for a moment and did not deny it directly, but asked him: "Why did you ask me this question?"

Peeves flew around Charles, stared at his 460mm wand and said: "I have lived in this castle for countless days and nights, and I know many things. Some things I know what they are when I see them."

"I can tell you must be related to that big shot from many years ago."

"That big shot is outstanding. He is the most talented wizard I have ever seen. He can learn any spell in one go. He possesses magic power that is so powerful that no one else can imagine. The Unforgivable Curse is like a child's toy in his hands. "

"He killed many people, either while killing or on the way to kill. The coffin shop made a fortune because of him."

"To this day, no one who knew him dared speak his name."

Charles glanced at his wand and thought for a while, Peeves must have guessed from the wand and ruby ​​that there was a relationship between him and the old man.

To put it bluntly, the old man cleared the British wizarding world of poachers and a large underworld gang, most of which were done around Hogwarts. It is normal for Peeves to know these things.

Not to mention rubies, Peeves must have seen them.

Peeves continued: "Do you think the Sorting Hat was joking the day you entered school? It never jokes when it sorts students into houses, but it is very smart, smarter than everyone thinks."

"And what happened later, I can confirm that you are related to that person!"

Charles was silent. Could it be that the Sorting Hat saw that he could use the Avada Kedavra and subconsciously asked him to go to Azkaban, and was afraid that he would be killed, so he said it as a joke?

He stopped thinking about this problem and went to ask the branch dean when he had time. Then he asked Peeves what he had just said: "That person you are looking for?"

"Yes!" Peeves said, "I am bound to this castle, and he has the power to free me from this bondage!"

Charles frowned slightly and thought about it. He had heard before that Peeves and ghosts were different. Judging from the ability to leave the castle, this was indeed the case.

And the ancient magic mastered by the old man could actually help Peeves break his shackles. This was unexpected.

Charles asked a question: "Then why didn't you look for that man when he was there?"

If the old man could really do it, then Charles couldn't understand why Peeves didn't come to him.

Peeves looked angry: "The Sorting Hat didn't tell me about this until after that guy graduated!"

Charles was speechless, but a new question immediately came up: "How did the Sorting Hat know about this?"

Peeves began to say impatiently: "He knows anyway!"

Judging from his appearance, he probably didn't know how the Sorting Hat knew about this.

"Okay." Charles curled his lips helplessly, "Give me the photo first, and I will help you contact that person."

Peeves looked at him with half-squinted eyes for a while, then agreed: "I hope you can keep your promise, you can't afford the consequences of deceiving me!"

No one or ghost in the corridor noticed. There was a person hiding in the nearby stairs, and he heard the first half of the conversation.

At this time, Malfoy's ears became like those of a pig. This was due to a curse he received in the dueling club. Unexpectedly, he heard something extraordinary on the way to the school doctor's office.

"Strong", "Using the Unforgivable Curse", "Killing a lot", especially "dare not say the name" at the end, these keywords were combined in Malfoy's mind, and the image of the Dark Lord quickly emerged.

Malfoy suddenly understood. Charles's life experience and why he was able to single out the Poisonous Leopard in the first year were easily solved. It made sense as long as he was that adult's student.

Xiao Ma held his breath, not daring to make any sound, and left cautiously, for fear of being discovered.

Although he is a second-generation Death Eater, if he angers the big boss, he will have fun with the whole family.

That night, Malfoy put on soft and comfortable pajamas, lay in the warm bed, recalled what he had heard not long ago, and decided to write a letter to his father tomorrow.

Suddenly, he shuddered and discovered what he had just overlooked. When Charles talked to Peeves, he mentioned a certain "monster".

Recently, everyone in Hogwarts has learned that the monster in the "Slytherin Heir Attack" last semester was most likely a basilisk, and it is a monster from every angle.

Malfoy stood out by not denying that he was the heir of Slytherin, thinking in his mind that he was providing a cover for the true heir so that he could carry out the great cause of purifying wizard blood.

At the same time, he is also very eager to know who this person is, and whether he can stand next to this person when judging merits and rewards in the future, and also attract people's attention.

Malfoy thought to himself that it would make sense if Charles was the heir of Slytherin and also a student of the Dark Lord.

Charles seems to be a pure-blood wizard, but no one can guess which family he is from. The strength and talent he is showing now can be explained by his Slytherin bloodline.

Although the descendants of Slytherin are no longer visible, there are endless stories about illegitimate children or the old king next door. Maybe one of the reclusive families is the protagonist of the story.

Malfoy quickly came up with a story. After the Dark Lord failed, he temporarily hid himself. At the same time, he found Charles, a descendant of Slytherin, raised him and educated him, and then placed him under Harry Potter as an undercover agent. .

He suddenly thought that after the attack on Halloween last year, Charles deliberately framed him at first, implying that he wanted to help him attract attention and prepare for the next attack, because he was an excellent pure-blood wizard and was suitable to help him in all aspects. Complete this great task.

The most recent attack occurred after Charles took an extended leave of absence, and although he wasn't at Hogwarts at the time, who can say for sure.

It is no secret that the castle has secret passages leading to the outside. Many people know the existence of these secret passages, they just don't know where they are.

The Weasley twins in Gryffindor must know, Charles is so familiar with them that he can ask.

Moreover, Charles found a job at the Ministry of Magic that allowed him to enter the Forbidden Forest. Who would a serious wizard go to a place like the Centaur Liaison Office where employees waiting to be fired stay? It must be an excuse to go to the Forbidden Forest. Maybe there is his secret base there. , even the Dark Lord might be there.

Malfoy thought about his performance during this period and felt that he was quite qualified. Many people thought that he had done those things, and no one doubted Charles.

The big boy under the quilt suddenly became excited and nervous. If he helped Charles, would he be helping the Dark Lord? At that time...

That night, Malfoy had a dream. He dreamed that everyone, including his father, looked at him with envy as he stood in front of the Dark Lord. The Dark Lord kept praising him, and Charles thanked him for his help.

While Malfoy was dreaming, Charles got back the camera from Peeves and the precious film taken in the bathroom. He returned to the bedroom and blew out the candles before starting to develop.

Tools and special potions for developing photos are sold in Diagon Alley, and tutorials are also included. Charles is very familiar with it, and Hemew's appearance soon appeared on the photos.
