v4 Chapter 181： Malfoy: It's the master's job

Malfoy knew with his toes that this curse was anything but good.

Mysterious Man's confidant, Death Eater, came to Hogsmeade at the risk of being caught by Dumbledore and branded himself the Dark Mark, and the curse on the jewelry at the end couldn't make people grow pimples. The little pranks, right?

It's killing people!

Bellacritus observed the panic on Malfoy's face, but she didn't care. It was an order from the Dark Lord, and he had to do it anyway. If Malfoy refused, Bella would even use the Imperius Curse to control him, allowing him to perform Voldemort's mission.

"Then who should I give it to?" Malfoy took the box tremblingly, wondering who the mission target set by the mysterious man was.

"Master didn't specify a clear mission goal, this is a test, do you understand, Draco?" Seeing that her nephew didn't seem to be very enlightened, she decided to look at her sister's face and remind herself of this stupid nephew .

"The more important the characters you kill, the higher your status with the Dark Lord." She stared straight into Malfoy's eyes and approached Malfoy step by step, "Trust me, if you can kill Deng Bridor, then you will surely get a reward that you can't even dream of, and your father will regain the Dark Lord's favor...for your father, for the ancient Malfoy family!" Bellacritus put his hand on Malfoy's hand. On Fu's shoulder, he shook him vigorously, his tone almost hysterical.

"Deng, Dumbledore?" Malfoy was horrified by the name Bella spat out: how could he have the ability to assassinate Dumbledore? Could the trinket in that box really kill a wizard like Dumbledore?

He doesn't believe it. Stop kidding, do you mysterious man have this ability? If you really have it, why would you ask me, a little wizard who's not in fifth grade to do this? You don't have that ability at all, do you? !

After realizing that she seemed to have accidentally said what she was saying, Bellatrix also felt inappropriate.

He was just a child, and it was a bit reluctant to let him kill Dumbledore all of a sudden, she thought, and changed her words.

"This is just what I said casually. How to choose depends on you. It doesn't matter if you choose an ordinary wizard."

At the same time, in order to strengthen his persuasion, Bellacritus also opened the box to reveal the jewelry inside: it was a golden necklace with a pure gold cygnet hanging from the end of the chain.

"The Age of Rebirth"

The jewelry looks harmless to humans and animals, but Bella Cretes' expression is extremely serious.

"Never touch this necklace with your bare hands, it will kill people." She warned her nephew very seriously. She manipulated the necklace with her wand, and after it spun twice in mid-air, she put it back in the box. Then the box was shoved into Malfoy's hands.

Malfoy's entire body trembled as if he had received a scorpion.

"As long as it doesn't touch the necklace, there will be no problem." Bellacritus looked at Malfoy with a look of contempt on her face: her sister's family is too timid.

Staring at the box in his hand, Malfoy whispered, "Is it okay to choose any wizard..."

At this moment, he was a little moved.

He can toss the box in the bathroom on a floor and wait for some hapless guy to come. By doing this, it should be possible to get the mysterious man and the others to the lake, right? Malfoy thought to himself.

If this is the way, it is not impossible in Malfoy's eyes. Because it is safe enough, you don't need to do too many operations yourself.

However, Bellacritus ruthlessly pierced Malfoy's fantasy.

"Choose a wizard at random? Of course you can." Malfoy was flustered by her half-smiley expression, "It's just that a wizard selected 'casually' can't satisfy the Dark Lord."

Malfoy: …

"If the lord is not satisfied..." he asked cautiously.

"I'll let you do another mission." Malfoy's heart froze at Bellacritus' words.

Do the mission again? That difficulty is too high! Hogwarts teachers and students who have been attacked will definitely be more vigilant, and it will be much more difficult for them to succeed.

"Why don't I find a prey for you..." Bellatrix licked the corners of her mouth, and a frantic blood flashed in her eyes: "I remember a little Mudblood walking very close to Tom Yordle, you If you kill her, you can do business, how about that?"

"Hermione Granger?!"

"It seems to be the name." Bellatrix nodded casually. This girl has been in the limelight recently. During the summer vacation, he also appeared in the newspaper with that yordle. If she were to be killed, it would surely disrupt the entire Hogwarts and gain a chance for the master's great plan.

As for why he didn't choose the more famous Yordle, it was because Voldemort still had illusions about winning over Yordle

Malfoy's heart was already filled with fear.

That's Hermione Granger! No matter whether his assassination is successful or not, his end will not be very good. This is to offend Tom to death.

Malfoy instantly weighed the pros and cons.

Can't accept this mission!

He dared to assassinate Dumbledore, but he dared not to assassinate Hermione. Because Dumbledore is a good man, even if the action fails he will not do anything to himself. But Tom is different. Once he makes such a move, he will die without a place to be buried.

"Well, okay." Malfoy tried his best not to show abnormality, he was very entangled in his heart now.

There are two paths in front of him. The first is to find Tom after leaving the Hog's Head Bar and tell him Bellatrix's plan. If possible, tell Tom her position as well, and use Bellatrix as a bargaining chip to find a way back.

The advantage of this is obvious, that is, the risk is too great, and it will make oneself completely bound to the Order of the Phoenix.

The other way is to obediently implement Bella's plan, but in case Tom finds out, going to Azkaban to go to jail is an extravagant hope.

what can we do about it? Can't keep dragging on?

"You seem to be hesitant," Bellatrix is ​​not a good character. She sensed that Malfoy's state was not right. She stared straight at Malfoy, as if she wanted to see through his mind.

"No, no... I, I just don't know what to do..." Malfoy felt his heart beat fast, and he couldn't help clenching his wand again.

"Well, there is a proper way." Bellatrix gave Malfoy a trick.

"You can pass the Confusion Charm to someone else to hand over this necklace for you, so that you won't be exposed, you just need to hide behind the scenes."

This suggestion made Malfoy a little moved. It's just that he doesn't confuse spells.

Bellatrix sighed after hearing Malfoy say that.

Won't? I think you don't want to? She had lost patience with her nephew.

"That's alright, I can teach you... Listen up - Out of Body!" Bellatrix first pretended to teach Malfoy the Confusion Charm, then suddenly shot, an Imperius Curse hit Malfoy's forehead.

Malfoy's expression suddenly became confused.

"You people, you usually talk nicely, but when it's time to play for the master, you push one by one, Lucius is like this, Sisi is like this, you are like this..." Bellatrix said low He muttered, his eyes full of resentment.

She didn't understand why these people couldn't be loyal to his master? Even his own younger sister is the second or fifth child at the two ends of the first mouse. It must be the cowardly gene of the Malfoy family that affected his sister! Other wizards don't know about the filthy actions of the Malfoy family before, don't they know it?

Bellatrix took control of Malfoy, gave him a few orders, and left the Hog's Head through the Floo network.

Draco Malfoy also took the wooden box and left here with a blank expression. He was going to return to Hogwarts according to Bella's instructions to find an opportunity to shoot.

"It's getting late, maybe we should return to the castle." Dumbledore buried the leftover food scraps into the ground, and brushed off the crumbs on his robes. He looked at Tom and Hermione, and pondered. "Do you two have any other arrangements? I want to remind you that Hogwarts has a curfew, and if you're staying out at night—"

"No!" Hermione stomped her feet, her face flushed.

"Really?" Dumbledore glanced at the black stockings on Hermione's legs without a trace, and felt that what she said seemed to have no credibility.

"Of course!" Tom said. "Professor, don't worry, we will definitely abide by the school rules."

Rao was due to Dumbledore's psychological endurance, and he almost couldn't hold back when he heard this.

You, Tom Yodell, follow school rules? Don't you look at how many times you've stayed up at night!

"You just know what you have in mind." Dumbledore cleared his throat, he lifted the basket, put away the tablecloth on the ground, and waved to Tom and the two: "I'll go back first."

"Professor, please wait, there's one more thing I forgot to mention." Tom suddenly remembered that he still had one more thing to ask Dumbledore.

When they had a picnic just now, they were just chatting. They didn't talk much about business. They just talked about the feasibility of installing surveillance in Azkaban and how to take the Philosopher's Stone. What Tom wanted to ask the most, he hadn't asked yet. Woolen cloth.

"What's the matter?" Dumbledore turned to look at Tom with a calm expression.

"Does Hogwarts have any protective measures?" Tom looked at Dumbledore curiously.

"Protective measures?" Dumbledore was taken aback by Tom's question, and Hermione on the side couldn't stand it any longer. She answered Tom's question for Dumbledore.

"Hogwarts Castle has Muggle Repelling Charms, Anti-Apparition Charms, and cannot be marked on the map. In the eyes of Muggles, Hogwarts Castle is just a ruin, with [Danger Do Not Enter] hanging outside. Signs, as long as they get close, they will think of a hundred thousand urgent things, and then leave in a hurry - this is all written in "Hogwarts: A School History", Tom, you should really read more." She white Tom At first glance, he felt that he asked a rather unprofessional question.

"Are there any defenses against wizards then?" Tom was not worried about Muggles, but potentially hostile wizards.

Dumbledore: …

In Tom's view, Hogwarts has always been lacking in the permanent defense against wizards. The imaginary enemies of this castle have always been Muggles who harbor malice towards wizards, and as for wizards, they do not seem to be in the consideration of the founders and successor headmasters. After Sirius escaped from prison before, even if the Ministry of Magic brought in a large number of dementors to block the entrance and exit of the school, it could not prevent Sirius from coming in.

"Are you still worried about the Japanese and the remnants of the Death Eaters?" Dumbledore whispered.

"Yes, according to the existing information, aren't the two of them already colluding? There is also the ghost entrenched in the Americas, the Purifiers, these three parties are mixed together, I am afraid it is not so easy to solve." Tom looked seriously. Looking into Dumbledore's eyes: "If they target Hogwarts, it will be troublesome."

"You're right." Dumbledore nodded, accepting Tom's suggestion.

"I will increase the protection level of Hogwarts," he said softly, turning his back on him. "There are defensive barriers against wizards around Hogwarts, but they are not usually activated. A layer of powerful invisible barrier, which contains all kinds of ancient spells, it is very difficult to unlock from the outside."

Opening this barrier should cost a lot, but Dumbledore felt it was worth it, and he really didn't want to make Hogwarts a battlefield.

After finalizing the matter of raising the school's protection level, Dumbledore left first. Tom and Hermione plan to continue walking around the street for a while before going back to school.

As the two wandered aimlessly on the street, Tom caught a glimpse of gold out of the corner of his eye. He turned his head and saw that it was indeed Draco Malfoy He strode past them, seemingly unaware of their existence. Only, as he passed Hermione, Tom heard a crisp and pleasant bell.

Tom raised his eyebrows, and the bell sounded like the bell on the anklet he gave Hermione. This anklet, Hermione always wears it, even when bathing and sleeping, she will not take it off. Once the bell on the anklet rings, it means that there are people around her who are malicious towards her.

So, Malfoy is malicious towards Hermione? How dare he?

"It seems that our Malfoy classmates are not very honest." Tom looked at Malfoy's back, his tone was cold, "How dare you hit your mind."

"I don't know what he wants to do?" Hermione frowned. It's not a good feeling to know that someone is mean to you, but you can only passively wait.

"Would you like to start early and get rid of him?" Tom looked at Hermione and gave his own plan. In his opinion, how can there be a thousand days to prevent thieves? Better to strike first.

Hermione hesitated for a moment, then finally shook her head.

"No, he hasn't done anything after all."
