The Secret History of Platinum

Because of Abu's explanation, Draco looked the same when he appeared in front of people the next day. The only possible difference was that his complexion was slightly worse. This was also attributed to the injury and shock yesterday. , which aroused many people's dissatisfaction with the current professor of protection of magical creatures.This made Draco, who originally wanted to use beauty magic to cover up the traces of lack of sleep the night before, but was stopped by his grandfather, secretly laughed for a while.

In fact, people who are close to Draco will still notice some changes in him. The office of the potions professor and head of Slytherin, who used to go often, doesn't go there often, and he doesn't seem so excited about receiving letters from home. Some people think that This is the platinum young master who has grown up after this incident, no longer keeps his mouth shut about my father, and no longer runs to his godfather at every turn.

But Lucius and Snape, who knew everything, naturally knew that it was their children who were making trouble.They can only try their best to make Draco happy, and get him what he wants, what he wants to eat, and what he wants to play with, but it seems that the effect is not great. Put things away, that's all.

The two adult Slytherins as fathers naturally couldn't be angry with Draco, so the people and magical creatures who hurt Draco were hurt.

The TV station invested and built by Lucius first disclosed the news that a student was injured under the nose of the professor in the Hogwarts classroom. It can be said that Lucius’ TV sales promotion is good. More than [-]% of the wizarding families in the UK have TVs. In addition, some families without a TV would go to their neighbors to watch the TV, so the news was known to wizards all over the UK in the first place.In the next few days, following the TV station, several wizarding newspapers also published the news.Hogwarts ushered in a new round of owl craze. Some parents wrote letters to remind their children to pay attention to safety, or directly asked them to drop the course of protecting magical creatures; Bullido also has Lupine and Hagrid, who are professors of protection of magical creatures.

After mobilizing the general public, Lucius pressured the Ministry of Magic to order the death of the hippogriff that had harmed his precious dragon.At the same time, Lucius also used his status as a school board member to mobilize the school board to review whether the professor of the protection of magical creatures is eligible to hold a teaching position.

But Snape's revenge was even more cautious. The unlucky werewolf drank the potion of wolfsbane that was more than ten times bitter than before, and Hagrid, as a thick-skinned half-giant, became Snape's test subject. Noticing that he drank many of the potions that Snape had secretly added to his food and drink.

All of a sudden, because he drank many potions with different effects, and because his beloved Hippogriff Buckbeak was about to be executed, Hagrid suddenly lost a lot of weight.

Draco was naturally very aware of Lucius and the others venting their anger on him, and was very happy in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface, and he didn't answer those two people.In addition to attending classes and receiving teachings from his grandfather every day, he went to the abandoned classroom deep in the cellar to chat with his new friend who called himself Eugene's portrait.

Eugene is a very old portrait. According to him, he existed when the Big Four came to this castle to establish Hogwarts. He spent so much time that he often had to sleep to pass the time.

Because it is a very ancient existence and also very knowledgeable, Draco likes to chat with him very much. "Eugene, if you are alive, you must be a great wizard." Draco said to Eugene, "It would be great if you appeared in front of me alive, then I will definitely learn a lot from you."

"Hehe, that's not necessarily true." Eugene on the portrait smiled mysteriously, and somewhere under the castle, a mysterious creature also smiled strangely.

Draco's injury was the biggest incident at Hogwarts since the beginning of this semester. Around his injury, ordinary wizards, the Ministry of Magic, the school board, and Dumbledore were all involved.However, as the Triwizard Tournament approached, news about the Triwizard Tournament gradually replaced Draco's injury as the new gossip that the students talked about.

The other two schools participating in the Triwizard Tournament will arrive on the eve of Halloween. In order to impress the two schools, Hogwarts began a large-scale cleaning and decoration, trying to show Hogwarts as the host spirit. .

Finally came the day when the two schools came to visit. Against the backdrop of the brand-new castle, Hogwarts students lined up to wait for the arrival of the two schools.

Beauxbaton's Pegasus and Durmstrang's boat came to Hogwarts from the sky and the bottom of the lake respectively.

As the host, Dumbledore went forward to shake hands with the principals of the other two schools.

Ladies first, Dumbledore shook hands with Mrs. Maxim who was much taller than him, and then said a few compliments.Then he turned to Durmstrang's headmaster, Karkaroff.

"Hi Igor."

"Hello Dumbledore." Karkaroff seemed a little nervous, he quickly shook Dumbledore's hand and let it go, which made Madam Maxim frowned.

Dumbledore was about to say a few words to Karkaroff, and let the representatives of the two schools into the auditorium.Unexpectedly, Karkaroff spoke first: "Please allow me to introduce Durmstrang's honorary principal to the two principals."

Honorary headmaster?Dumbledore was taken aback for a moment, but then he returned to normal and looked at Karkaroff cheerfully.

Karkaroff turned sideways respectfully, and a man covered in a cloak strode towards them.

This person gradually approached, and they could all see that this person seemed to be holding something in his arms, and there was a big lump in his cloak.

Dumbledore's originally cheerful expression was slightly confused.

The man finally walked up to them and slowly took off the hood with his hands in black leather gloves.

A blond middle-aged man appeared in front of them. Although he was middle-aged, the years did not seem to have left too many marks on him. He was still handsome and exuded a mature aura.

Madam Maxim frowned. She felt that this person looked familiar, but it didn't matter whether the so-called honorary headmaster of Hogwarts was an enemy or a friend. After all, this is Hogwarts. The wizard Dumbledore is here.Thinking of this, she turned to look at Dumbledore.This glance made her stunned for a moment.

The greatest white wizard in the world was actually staring at Durmstrang's honorary headmaster in a daze.

But Mrs. Maxim didn't want to think too much, the honorary principal of the German school had already greeted her, "Hello, beautiful lady. I'm Gellert Grindelwald, nice to meet you."

"Hello." Madam Maxim responded subconsciously, but her eyes widened immediately.who?Who did she hear just now?Gellert Grindelwald, the Dark Lord who once ran amok in Europe, shouldn't he stay in Nurmengard to get out of prison, and isn't he a dropout who was expelled by Durmstrang, how could he become an honorary man? As for the principal, did you actually forge your diploma?

Due to Gellert's self-introduction, Madam Maxim was a little confused for a while, and Dumbledore didn't speak after Gellert took off his hood. Karkaroff really wanted to ease the atmosphere, but he was in the way The honorary principal of the German school is too imposing, and the principal of the German school has no choice but to act as a wall flower.The Hogwarts professors' team and Beauxbaton's group, who were a little far away from them, felt that the atmosphere of the principals who were greeting each other was a little weird, but it was not easy to go forward.

At this time, a person walked through Durmstrang's group and broke the weird atmosphere among the principals of the three schools. It was a handsome but unsmiling wizard.

Karkaroff immediately became active again, "Please allow me to introduce, this is Heinz-Oberstein, Deputy Minister of the German Ministry of Magic, who was sent by the German Ministry of Magic to negotiate with the British Ministry of Magic."

"Heinz-Oberstein." Sure enough, just like his serious image, Heinz's self-introduction was very brief.After introducing himself, he retreated to Gellert's side, but his eyes quickly searched for the person he wanted to find among the students at Hogwarts.

At this moment, Abu almost sighed in the student team at Hogwarts. Gellert came running without saying hello, and even Heinz came. Are you here to visit relatives?

Standing with him Draco quietly tugged down his sleeves, "You know them?" Draco was keenly aware that after Durmstrang's representative appeared, his grandfather had a moment that was wrong, although he He concealed it quickly, but he was still noticed.

"Go back and tell you." Your great-grandfather and godfather have all come running, and the child is still ignorant and happy.Abu could already imagine Draco jumping up after knowing the identities of those two people.But the head emerging from Gellert's cloak at the next moment made Abu almost want to yell at Gellert twice. "You actually brought your reborn father who has only a little bit of self-protection ability. Don't you know how dangerous Hogwarts is with Harry Potter?"

At this time, Dumbledore and Madam Maxime were able to see Gellert's cloak wriggling at close range, with a small head sticking out tightly.This is a very small child, with a thick hat on his head, and only a little pale blond hair is slightly exposed.

"Gai Gai, Ao'ao is hungry." The child who called himself Ao'ao acted coquettishly against Gellert's chest.

"Then let's go eat." Gellert smiled softly, and his smile confused Dumbledore for a while, as if he had returned to his youthful and ideal youthful years.But Gellert's next words brought him back to his senses, "Let's go in, Principal Dumbledore, I think the students should be hungry too."

Dumbledore was very bitter in his heart. If you miss something, you miss it. Now that you have done it, don't regret it.
