Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

The reading room brought by Zhang Xu back then was an independent institution in Hogwarts, and now it has developed very vigorously. The weekly salons and debates organized by students are full of vitality. The book purchasing business that made Zhang Xu his first pot of gold at Hogwarts has now also brought Zhang Qiu, who inherited this business, a lot of private property. money. At that time, when the prospects were unclear, some functions of this place, which was one of the escape routes - including but not limited to super long-distance teleportation, self-destruction, etc. - were fortunately not discovered by Dumbledore and other Hogwarts staff.

Although Zhang Xu has spent less time here than in the kitchen in the past few years, this is still one of his private residences.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, Malfoy carefully pushed open the door of the reading room, and then made a gesture of sticking his head in to see what was going on.

Almost all the lights in the reading room went out, leaving only a few lights from the door to Zhang Xu's special seat still on.

Malfoy cautiously walked into the reading room with the door open, otherwise he would have fled through the door as soon as he noticed something was wrong.

Be careful, Malfoy knew that what he was doing was enough to kill him several times at Hogwarts. If the matter were leaked, Dumbledore would not be able to protect him.

As Malfoy walked, he checked to see if there was anyone hiding around him. If the tea cup in Zhang Xu's hand fell to the ground and broke into pieces, then a group of Gryffindors jumped out from behind the bookshelf, Malfoy wouldn't be surprised at all.

"Very good, very cautious. Although caution may not necessarily bring success, it can avoid failure." Zhang Xu poured a cup of hot tea for Malfoy, who was sitting opposite him, and said, "This is the only place in Hogwarts where people are not afraid. It’s a place that’s been overheard.”

Malfoy imitated the Eastern etiquette his father had taught him, and tapped the table with the index and middle fingers of his right hand together.

It's just that he was too nervous and used too much force. Zhang Xu was afraid that he would damage the table.

Malfoy didn't notice this, Zhang Xu glanced at the door subconsciously. A mouse followed Malfoy in, but was immediately driven away by the automatic defense magic here.

Then Zhang Xu asked Malfoy: "Let me ask you something first, have you gone home during the Christmas vacation?"

Malfoy shook his head and said, "No."

Zhang Xu turned his head to look out the window, and then said nonchalantly: "I don't care what you do next, as long as you only go after Dumbledore and don't drag the people around me into trouble, I can do whatever you want." Turn a blind eye to the matter."

Zhang Xu's words were like dropping a bomb in Malfoy's mind. Although he guessed that Zhang Xu saw what he was doing in Hogsmeade that time, he didn't think Zhang Xu would know who his target was.

Malfoy stood up subconsciously and drew out his wand, pointing it at Zhang Xu, intending to silence him, but at the next moment, his movements stopped.

Zhang Xu was still looking out the window, but at some point a black sign appeared on his hand. The sign was tumbling between his fingers as his fingers shook. On the front of the sign was the Death Eater's Dark Mark.

Malfoy was stunned. He looked at Zhang Xu as if he saw Snape standing in front of him with a head of foam on his head while he was washing his hair.

"Why?!" Malfoy asked in horror.

He naturally recognized the black brand in Zhang Xu's hand, because his father proposed it and his father also had one. Now that the Death Eaters have become a big family, it is impossible for Voldemort to personally manage people and things at the grassroots level, so Lao Ma didn't know where to make the mistake, so he suggested to Voldemort that "see things as you see people", and then Voldemort also Agreed on the wrong lines. Now this brand is no joke among grassroots Death Eaters.

But Malfoy never expected that Zhang Xu would have this thing in his hands. Although I heard at home that the Death Eaters had been planning to instigate rebellion or control Zhang Xu, everyone knew how low the success rate was.

After turning around and seeing Malfoy's reaction,

Zhang Xu also complained bitterly in his heart, saying that when Lao Ma was not planting sugar cane, he must have been learning Chinese with martial arts. That day when he saw Voldemort placing the "Dark Token" in the middle of the table in the cafe, he almost choked to death on his cappuccino.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't say what you shouldn't say in the future, you know?" Zhang Xu said to Malfoy.

Malfoy nodded subconsciously.

Zhang Xu would naturally not tell Malfoy that the sign given to him by Voldemort as a reward could only save his own life, and could not be used to order other Death Eaters to do things like Lao Ma. Otherwise, he would have ordered Snape to be spared. I finished all the homework for my Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

"Let me tell you something first. Are you planning to give that opal necklace to me?" Zhang Xu asked while playing with the brand.

Cold sweat broke out on Malfoy's forehead and back, and pills popped up in his mind.

"Let's forget about this matter. Just express your apology casually." Zhang Xu said magnanimously.

Malfoy naturally knows what Zhang Xu means by "expressing his apology". There is no other option besides gold coins. Zhang Xu's greed for money is something that all the top Death Eaters know and understand deeply. .

"I have no money, and my family has no money either." Malfoy managed to say this through his teeth.

After claiming to be the eldest son of a wealthy British wizarding family for so many years, the family's current liquidity has almost dried up, and the old house that accounts for the largest proportion of real estate has been burned down and needs to be rebuilt. Now the Malfoy family can be said to be on the verge of bankruptcy. This contrast is not surprising. big. Not to mention that half of his working capital was stolen by the person sitting across from him.

"Then let's make an IOU first. I won't charge you the interest because we have been classmates for many years." Zhang Xu said, "By the way, it was not us who burned your house down, it was the Russian wizards who did it."

Faced with the current situation where the enemy is strong and we are weak, Xiaoma had no choice but to lower his head and write an IOU on the parchment provided by Zhang Xu and then press his fingerprint. Zhang Xu nodded with satisfaction after seeing the number on the IOU.

Malfoy thought that Zhang Xu was looking for him tonight because of this matter, but just when he was about to find an excuse to leave, Zhang Xu said: "Okay, let's get down to business."

Malfoy looked at Zhang Xu with a pale face, not knowing what business he was talking about, but what Malfoy was sure of was that he was definitely not here to help him complete his task.
