Chapter 37 Lucius' Guess

It was a very ordinary morning, Lucius walked down the stairs gracefully as usual, his wife was already waiting at the dining table, they looked at each other harmoniously, and at the same time nodded in greeting.

"Are you going out today?" He asked casually while pouring himself a cup of black tea.

Narcissa squinted at him with beautiful eyes, "No, I don't think so."

"Oh? It's rare to have time today but not go on a date." Lucius was a little surprised.

"Martin has his own business, of course we can't see each other every day," Narcissa said lightly, and at the same time quickly cut her steak into ten equal-sized pieces, "That's something teenagers would do .”

Raising his eyebrows, Lucius said nothing.From this moment on, there was only the sound of knives and forks being scratched slightly in the dining room. It seemed that the nobles enjoyed the comfort brought by the silence, so the Malfoys seemed quite at ease.

However, the atmosphere they enjoyed was soon interrupted.Lucius frowned when he heard the sound of "tap, tap" running from far and near outside the door.He raised his head in displeasure, just in time to see that Xiaolong, who usually takes him as the standard, is running into the restaurant with disheveled clothes and disheveled hair in an irregular posture.

Before he could open his mouth to criticize Draco's impolite behavior, the other party spoke out of breath: "Dad," he yelled, "Hill is gone!"

Narcissa first raised her eyebrows in surprise, then looked at Lucius with a half-smile.In her opinion, the father must have abducted her son's friend into the room, and she really wanted to know what Lucius would say at this time.

"Draco, remember your identity!" Ignoring Narcissa, who was gloating and watching the show, Lucius sternly stopped the little dragon's behavior, seeing Draco arranging his clothes and hair in a bit of displeasure, he said He continued: "Last night, Stoke had gone back."

"Going back?" Draco's untidy hair fell down again because of his pause, his eyes widened with disbelief, "Why didn't he tell me?"

"Because you fell asleep." Lucius said calmly, and gracefully raised the teacup, taking a sip of the black tea.

"Yes, dear little dragon," Narcissa said with a gentle smile. She had no choice but to pick up the conversation at this moment. She believed that the enthusiasm just now had annoyed Mr. Malfoy next to him. Create unnecessary obstacles to your own future dates.So even though she really wanted to continue watching the play, she still spoke immediately, "Last night, Hill left because he received a letter from home. Seeing him in a hurry, something urgent must have happened."

Lucius glanced at her with satisfaction, and Narcissa, who received the message, lowered her head and chuckled lightly.

Draco didn't notice the interaction between his parents, he sat down on the chair with his head down, stirred the milk in the glass with a spoon, and said in a low voice, "I still want to spend my birthday with him..."

Lucius raised his eyes and stared at him for a while, then lowered his thoughtful eyes again, pretending to ask nonchalantly, "So, today is Stoke's birthday?"

"That's right..." Xiaolong fiddled with the milk cup that had been stirred by a spoon for a long time, and said regretfully, "How important is the 15th birthday! Maybe I can only invite him when I am 15 years old."

"No, Xiaolong." Narcissa looked at him with a sweet smile, but her eyes were full of determination: "When you are 15 years old, you will spend time with your fiancée."

"Oh, no..." Draco's face turned red all of a sudden, and he closed his mouth resentfully, deciding not to bring up the topic again.

Diagon Alley.

There is an inconspicuous small shop behind the Tuofan clothing store. It has no brand at all. The door is like an ordinary warehouse. It is hidden among many shops in Diagon Alley. It has been open for hundreds of years. But very few people know what it is for sale.Old Parker is the No.18 successor here, and since the store opened, it has been managed by their family.Usually the guests who come here are courteous but stealthy, but today a different guest came.

Old Pike looked at the young man in front of him with the words "impatient" written all over his body and shook his head helplessly. He had never seen such an arrogant guest push the door aggressively. The greasy hair and The conspicuous big nose seems to show a sense of presence to people everywhere, not to mention the imposing aura on his body that is hard to ignore!

"Get out of the way!" Snape frowned impatiently at him. "I think you know who I'm looking for."

"Young man, don't be so angry!" Old Pike said with a smile instead, "He's inside, please come in!" He said, and opened the small door behind the counter.

Snape ignored the annoying old man, bent down and walked in quickly.

The decoration on the side of the door is completely different from the front. Gorgeous dark lines are engraved on the side wall, and there is a feeling of resplendent and resplendent everywhere.The size of the room is not large, but the room with only three small compartments is very intimate, which is very suitable for talking about some secret events.Snape found the only compartment with a chained door, opened it and walked in.

Lucius was sitting in the gorgeous cubicle like a beautiful oil painting, with his favorite silver and green layout here, he flicked the goblet in his hand, the red wine in it rose with his movements ripple.Hearing the sound of the door opening, he casually raised his head and greeted his friend with a smile, "Severus, you're here."

"I don't know what the structure of your brain is. You actually called me out when my research was about to succeed. Shouldn't you be playing games with your little dragon at home at this time?" Snape said heavily He sat down on the chair opposite Lucius and expressed his dissatisfaction in a stern voice.

"That's not playing games." Lucius was used to his friend's language, and he didn't take his words seriously at all. "That's the family training of the Malfoy family, and I did the same back then."

"Hey!" Snape turned his head away in disdain, he didn't want to see the other party's domineering look, "Okay, Malfoy's family training! Then, instead of training your little dragon, drag me here to do it What?"

Lucius lowered his eyes and shook his red wine glass, and after two seconds of silence, he slowly opened his mouth, "Do you believe in the 15-year-old legend of that wizard?"

Snape looked at the other person's face with an absurd face, with a sarcastic arc on the corner of his mouth, with a malicious look in his eyes, and said gloatingly: "I really don't know when you went back to the fairy tale age! Maybe this Is it a sign of your family's successful training? Then I really want to congratulate you, Lucius," he sneered, "maybe you will rejuvenate sometime, please don't expect me to help you You change the diaper!"

"Severus..." Lucius looked at his friend helplessly.

"If you don't want me to continue talking, then don't make such low-intelligence jokes!" Snape gave him a disdainful look and said expressionlessly.

"I'm asking you seriously," Lucius said with a serious face, "I used to think it was a joke, but I've been thinking about it for the past few days, the little wizard of the ancient wizard family was 15 years old Isn't it really possible to inspire the bloodline, under a certain chance?"

Staring at Lucius' face suspiciously for five seconds, Snape finally realized that the other party was really not joking with him, he frowned, his heart sank, "So, you saw it?"

"I'm not sure." Lucius' face looked rather tangled. He lowered his head and thought for a few minutes before making up his mind. "He became quite different in an instant..."

"Him?" Snape narrowed his eyes and looked at him suspiciously.

"I mean, Stoke." Lucius still looked very serious, "It started to change at zero o'clock, and I've never seen it before! I checked the aristocratic genealogy, Stoke The family did have a marriage to a magical creature five generations ago, and a mermaid married into their family."

"You mean, it's possible for Stoke to complete the so-called 15-year-old legend?" Snape was indeed a little interested, his eyes lit up, as if he had thought of some new research topic.

"No," Lucius sighed, a little depressed, "you can't say that. If Stoke awakened the mermaid blood, then he should become close to the water, but his hair is braided red, and his body is still hot. It's powerful, I think, his special should be more inclined to flames."

"So, you brought me here just for this unwarranted guess?" Snape's expression became angry again, "If you want to know more about your little lover, then you should be fascinated by him It's time to ask yourself, instead of telling me some inexplicable guesses!"

"Don't be so excited, Severus..." Lucius' face returned to calm, "I just want you to do me a favor." Looking up at Snape, he found that he didn't intend to get angry. , then continued: "Help me watch him at school, I believe, you are also very interested in him, aren't you?"

Raising his eyebrows, Snape seemed to see through him, "Although I don't deny your speculation, you should understand that I won't do this kind of exploration with almost no conclusions. Or do you What are you planning, Lucius?"
