The Rise of Malfoy at Hogwarts

Researching the Black Magic Book is a difficult task. After a week, Schelling can eat less than one-tenth of the content of the three books. There is only one week left before the school starts, and he still needs it before school starts. A trip to Diagon Alley was planned, so Xie Lin decided to shelve the magic research first and let himself relax.

On this day, Schelling changed into a compact and capable outfit. Today, he has a lot of shows. In the morning, he invited Terrence Higgs to Norfolk to hunt the dwarf monster, and at noon he asked Murray. We went to see the paintings in the Magic Gallery of London together, and we had lunch together. In the evening, I asked Daphne to go to Liverpool to watch Cetina Warbeck's national tour "The Frolic Aphrodite". All of a sudden the northeast, all of the southeast, all of the northwest, are there any maps running all of a sudden? Under the influence of Floo Net and Apparition, everything is possible, and magic is convenience!

　　 In the morning, he first went to Higgs House through the fireplace and met Terence and his father Bertie Higgs. Old Bertie is a gentle middle-aged man who is the director of the Ministry of Magic’s Pest Counseling Office. He specializes in dealing with patchouli, hairy crabs, ghouls and pygmy hogs, so he has a good knowledge of hunting pygmy hogs. They brought three pure white albino bloodhounds, and Old Bertie took them to a jungle in Norfolk.

There, three people were waiting there, and one of them, Schelling, a teenager, also recognized-Cormic McLagen of Gryffindor, a student who was one year higher than Schelling. He was heard to be a very self-centered figure, not only among classmates Between being domineering, arrogant and arrogant, and acting impulsively and recklessly, regardless of the consequences, it simply combines all the shortcomings that Gryffindor should have. However, he has an uncle who holds a high position in the Ministry of Magic, Wiesengama member Tibelus McLagen, so many classmates are reluctant to offend him, which makes him even more powerful. At this moment, Komic was standing in front of two tall men, talking endlessly. One of the shrewd men was probably Uncle Tiberius, whom he often talked about.

The other man has a very majestic look. His hair and thick eyebrows are dark brown, with strands of gray interspersed with it. Behind the gold-rimmed glasses are a pair of sharp yellow eyes, which looks like an old lion. Schelling is right. If so, he is one of the four powerful figures in the Ministry of Magic, Rufus Scrimgeour, Director of the Auror Office!

(Note: The four powerful figures in the Ministry of Magic are: Minister of Magic Connelly Fudge, Senior Deputy Minister Dolores Umbridge, Director of the Law Enforcement Department Amelia Burns, and Auror Office Director Rufus Scrimgeour)

　　 (Note: The translation of Senior Deputy Minister is ambiguous. The original text is Undersecretary, which corresponds to the position of Secretary of State in the Muggle world. It is a person who holds great power, not just the minister's deputy)

　　 Schelling got acquainted with the three under the introduction of old Bertie.

Rufus is an ambitious person. Although he usually doesn't laugh at all, when he learned about Schelling's family background, he became polite to Schelling, and a rare smile appeared on his tough old face. Mike was a little uncomfortable in his heart, he felt that the aura on his body was taken away by Schelling.

　　 A group of six released the three bloodhounds, they let out a happy howl, and rushed into the jungle. These bloodhounds are well-trained and have a very keen sense of smell, and the dwarf pig monster is not long discovered.

The dwarf pig monster is a dark creature that is common in the wilderness of Europe, America and Russia. They are born with cursing power. They look like stunted dwarf piglets, except for their thick and short tails. And its strangely narrow black eyes. The dwarf monster often sneaks into the pigsty and eats the sow's milk with ordinary pigs, which will curse the farm and cause constant disasters. The longer the dwarf pig lurks, the longer the curse and disaster on the farm will last.

　　Pig monster has only an innate fear of white dogs, so the experienced old Bertie specially brought hunting dogs suffering from albinism. Such hunting dogs have a great advantage in driving away pygmy monsters. When the dwarf monsters are expelled from their hiding place, the hunters will kill them with a "dwarf pig curse" specifically aimed at the dwarf pigs.

Schelling has practiced shooting diligently since he was 9 years old. His shooting level is fast and accurate. After three seniors deliberately released the water, Schelling's number of dwarf pigs hunted steadily ranks first, Terence and The total number of hunted by Cormac was less than half of Schelling's.

Although Cormac was a little unhappy about this, he didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of a few big figures in the Ministry of Magic; the others gave Schelling some compliments such as "young and promising" and "extraordinary talent", and he understood the human affection and sophistication. Schelling humbly thanked Bertie, Rufus, and Tiberus for their suggestions and teachings, and honored the three elders with the precious health potions prepared in advance as gifts. Contrasted with Komic’s low EQ performance, Schelling’s knowledge of advancing and retreating, understanding of dignity and respect, and courtesy will undoubtedly win their favor. Even Tiberus, who has always loved Komic, saw the performance of his nephew. Also secretly shook his head and sighed.

　　 After leaving the fireplace in Higgs House, Schelling went to the British Magic Gallery in the north of London. The appearance of the British Magic Gallery is a bit like the National Art Gallery in the Muggle world. In addition to the slightly retro architectural style, other aspects such as size and momentum are similar. Of course, Muggles can't see such a large building. Only when the wizard is chanting the correct spell on a shabby statue, can he walk into the gallery from the street.

　　 At the entrance of the Magic Gallery, Murray, wearing a sleeveless white lace dress and a round straw hat with a wide brim, is looking at Schelling with a sweet smile. At Hogwarts, Mori's usual dressing tended to be rigorous and intellectual, and her cool and lively side was revealed at this time, which made Schelling look a little silly.

　　 "Hey, what are you in a daze?" Mori beckoned to Xie Lin, she was a little dissatisfied with this dumb playmate today.

　　Rao is the thick-skinned Schelling, and he is a little embarrassed at the moment, so he has to recruit from the truth, "Uh... your dress today is different from usual, I am a little overwhelmed at the moment."

　　 The corners of Murray's mouth raised slightly: "Then you say, is my dress better now, or is my usual dress better?"

what! This is a sub-question, I know the answer! Xie Lin suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, pretending to be meditative, and then pretending to be contemplative, he replied very seriously: "You are too embarrassed for me. A girl like you looks good in everything you wear. If you are usually gentle and intellectual. Athena, today you are undoubtedly pure and chaste Artemis, no matter which answer you answer, it is a kind of blasphemy to your beauty."

　　 Mori snorted coldly, "Cut! You are not sincere, do you usually talk so bluntly? It's no wonder that there are so many women around..." In fact, she was happy because of Schelling's praise. Women, that's what duplicity!

　　 Xie Lin wisely did not answer Murray’s question directly, but changed the subject calmly, “There are so many people in the gallery today! I don’t even know that British wizards have such a sense of art!”

Hearing the topic of the gallery, Murray began to explain with joy: "This is because the gallery held an exhibition today-the works of the late magic painter Margenta Comstock are on display. I have long heard of Constance. Tok’s magical paintings are currently the most advanced in the world of magic. The magical paintings she drew-the eyes of the characters in the paintings can even be separated from the drawing paper and follow the viewer home. It is a pity that after her death, this This skill has not been passed down..."

When Schelling heard it, how could he not know what was going on? A magic painting whose eyes can escape the limits of the frame of the drawing paper. Isn’t this a weapon for surveillance? It’s strange that the Ministry of Magic can let this kind of magic painting flow into the folks. ! Schelling bet that the information related to this magic painting skill has long been targeted by the Ministry of Magic, and it will be taken by the Ministry of Magic as soon as Comstock passes away.

　　 The two wandered leisurely in the gallery, giving some comments on a certain magic painting from time to time. Not to mention that Xie Lin is only keen on studying magic. His art appreciation level is not low. As the second heir to the Malfoy family, art appreciation and wine appreciation are required subjects. Xie Lin has also been trained in this area since he was a child. It was just that because he was not interested, Lucius saw that he had reached the minimum requirement of appreciating ability, so he let him go. Murray herself is because of her interest. She is very interested in painting, so she spends time studying magic paintings. Her biggest dream is to become a magic painter.

The magic painter is a rare profession in the wizarding world. You need to be proficient in painting skills as well as profound and mysterious soul magic, so that the characters in the painting can maintain the character and memory in front of them for a long time. Tok is one of the best. In addition to the terrifying ability to keep the eyes off the drawing paper, her magical paintings have also successfully drawn the charm of the characters-the old witch who is angry and grinning at the audience. , High-spirited, yelling medieval armored knight...

　　 After the two finished enjoying the painting, Mo Rui reluctantly left the gallery (actually, she was dragged away by Schelling). Seeing that there was still some time, Xie Lin very gentlemanly invited Murray to lunch. Lunch was in a wizarding high-end restaurant located in a remote alley in London. This high-end restaurant is only open to members, and the membership fee alone costs ten gallons a year. The decoration and table and chairs inside are all made of mahogany, and the tableware is made of sterling silver. In addition to the retro, it also brings a noble and elegant. The indoor lighting and background music can be light and dark, and the tone can be done. It's just right to be neither high nor low, very emotional and comfortable.

Schelling ordered a Re'em steak. Re\'em is a rare magical animal from the Far East. It looks like a giant cow with golden skin. Its meat is tender and juicy. And it can enhance the strength of the eater, and there are even rumors that can enhance some indescribable abilities of the wizard. Murray's appetite is very small, just order a caviar muffin.

The two enjoyed a leisurely lunch. Schelling very gentlemanly sent Murray home from the fireplace in the restaurant, and politely greeted McDoug and his wife, then went back into the fireplace and appeared in England. The city of Liverpool in the northwest.

　　 Tonight, the Anfield stadium in Liverpool was confiscated by wizards-the entire stadium was released with countless Muggle expulsion spells, and every Muggle would automatically go home as long as it came to the stadium.

Cetina Warbeck is a legend in the wizarding singer world. She showed off her talent when she was 10 years old. She appeared on the cover of the gossip magazine "Distracted". She has released 6 albums since her debut at the age of 17. , And both Zhang and Zhang won awards, and both Zhang and Zhang are selling well. Her latest album "You Stole My Pot, But You Can't Get My Heart" even went out of the UK and became popular all over the world.

Tickets for this concert have been sold as early as a year ago-the original tickets only cost 5 gallons, but now they have been speculated in the black market to a high price of 50 gallons~www.wuxiaspot.com~ enough It has risen tenfold. Fortunately, the Greengrass family and the sponsor "The Sorcerer\'s Saucepot" (The Sorcerer\'sSaucepot) have some business dealings, so they can book such a popular ticket. Originally Daphne's sister Astoria was also coming, but she cancelled because she was temporarily unwell.

　　 (Note: Saucepot and Cauldron are not the same thing. The former is kitchenware, and the latter is potion equipment. It can be seen that wizards actually have their own "technology" for life.)

　　 Tonight’s Daphne was clearly dressed up. The long golden hair was braided into braids and fixed on the back of the head. The layered hairstyle with silver-white beaded hair ornaments looked very elegant and dignified. On the white jade neck that was exposed from her hair, she wore a string of creamy pearls, which contrasted with her creamy skin. Of course, after our protagonist Xie Lin was unwilling to do so, he changed into a tailored high-necked suit with dark green hidden patterns in pitch black, making him look heroic and handsome.

　　 Seeing Daphne dressed up, Xie Lin naturally couldn't lose his courtesy. He walked forward and kissed the back of Daphne's hand, then took her hand, and the two joined hands from the VIP aisle into the VIP seat at Anfield Stadium. When Schelling took Daphne's hand, Daphne showed a sly smile that succeeded in conspiracy without Schelling's sight.

Although Cetina Warbeck is 76 years old, she is still young. She has presented 12 famous songs one after another, while singing her latest work "You stole my pot, but you can't get my heart" , The atmosphere of the audience entered the highest tide. It was close to 10 o'clock in the evening when Cetina stopped singing, and the concert officially ended with the last round of applause.
