That's why I'm saying it here.
I want him to eat obediently.
But...don't you know your own recipes? Tell me, is it really okay to eat steak so early in the morning? Darren felt utterly helpless.
He could only stubbornly say, "But house-elves don't get paid. They do so much, and they don't even get any benefits..."
I am a nobody with little influence, so this is the only way I can try to secure some benefits for them.

"Oh, child, but you don't know that house-elves love to work."
They even punish themselves when they see you don't eat the food they've carefully prepared!
"Dumbledore said with a sigh."
He said, as if he had great pity for those house-elves, "As far as I know, they also take their hands off and put them in the oven."
They would even use a large iron to burn their ears, trying to show their owners their determination.
Dumbledore said in a frightening tone.
Darren couldn't help but show a worried and fearful expression.
However, he still hesitated.
“But if I don’t fight for them, how can they have any rights to be protected? I know I’m taking advantage of your sincerity, but this is the only way I can do it. I really want them to be able to live a normal life.”
I once said that all lives are equal, and I still believe that today.
I never imagined that such an event would happen at Hogwarts... I'm sorry, I always cause you trouble and worry, but I can't bear to let them live like this forever.
"If starving myself makes them aware of it, or if you and the board get them to improve their treatment, then I'd be willing to starve to death."

[bite……]
These words moved everyone.
Even Dumbledore couldn't help but tear up.
He took off his glasses and wiped the fog off.
Then he said with a sigh, "Kid, you win. I've spoken to the board again about this, and they think it needs further discussion."
However, I don't think there will be any rejections, since no one wants to disappoint two excellent students.
Of course, while we're discussing this at the board meeting, I think you could first grant the house-elves' wish and enjoy the food they make, okay?

Chapter 421 Complete Depravity!!
Ah this...
Darren was not exactly unhappy when he heard Dumbledore's words; he was just saddened.
He had originally thought that he would be able to eat takeout openly from now on.
The result is now better.
They wouldn't let him eat the takeout.
Hermione had threatened the school with a hunger strike when she was in school, but the school completely ignored her demands!
Darren thought to himself, "That's what I'm complaining about."
But then he remembered.
After all, Hermione was just an excellent student in terms of both character and academics.
But he is different.
He is Harry Potter's brother, a recipient of the Order of Merlin, eleventh class, and has also developed many special potions.
It can even turn a Squib into a wizard.
Most importantly, he was also a very powerful wizard.
Many people now believe that his magic is extremely powerful, more so than many Aurors combined.
He's just too kind, which is why so many problems arise.
However, his strength cannot be denied.
Such a powerful wizard would make even the school board members wary of his opinions.
Darren sighed.
Ok.
Forget it.
If you can't order takeout openly, then order it secretly.
Anyway, it's his own fault for not gaining weight no matter how much he eats now.
This is something that would make many people envious to tears.
then.
He struggled slightly, seemingly unwilling, but then he remembered the tragic scenes Dumbledore had described.
He finally nodded.
"Yes, you're right. During this time, I will eat well and tell them that I really like the food they make, and I really like the desserts they make..."

"Very good, then, isn't that a win-win situation?"
Dumbledore laughed.
Then he looked at Harry and the others. He seemed to have a headache.
The corners of his mouth moved.
Darren could sense his helplessness. Dumbledore was helpless at the time as well.
After all, he acted too terrifyingly.
Otherwise, Dumbledore would have waited until no one was around before taking him to the school infirmary.
Now all these kids know about it.
He may not only have to explain these things, but also ask them to keep them as secret as possible and not talk about it outside.
Of course, these things have nothing to do with Darren.
He had already climbed out of bed.
As he was putting on his shoes, he heard Dumbledore whisper to Harry and the others, "If anyone really doesn't understand, they can come to my office in the middle of the night."
Clearly, they were planning to meet in the office late at night to discuss the matter.
Darren sighed.
He pretended not to hear anything, tilted his head, and thought of Professor McGonagall and Moody.
He raised his head anxiously and looked at Dumbledore, saying anxiously, "Could you please not be angry with Professor McGonagall and Professor Moody?"
They did all this because of me. Actually, it's also because I didn't stop them. If I had stopped them, this wouldn't have happened.

"Oh, kids, I did really want to give them a piece of my mind at first."
But because you fainted, I forgot about it. Perhaps I should call them back now…”
"do not want!"
Darren blurted it out.
