Chapter 96: Going to China?
Landric did not attend the trial; Lucius sat on the stage and listened to the arguments with great interest throughout.
Upon hearing Dumbledore stand up to defend Ginny Weasley, a glint of "I knew it" flashed in his grey-blue eyes.
That makes sense, though. If Dumbledore didn't step forward and vouch for Weasley with his reputation, who else would help Weasley?
Just like when Voldemort fell, he protected Snape.
Paul Snepp...
The fingertips on the cane were somewhat whitish.
The presiding judge solicited opinions from the crowd.
The majority of jurors on the bench voted in favor of the verdict.
Lucius scanned them one by one, and they thought their godson's performance was absolutely brilliant.
It was worth it for him to react so quickly after seeing that Nott kid's gesture that day.
He presented the Weasleys with two letters of understanding and two IOUs for them to sign.
Several crystal balls not far from the stage recorded the entire event.
Since King rose to power, he has openly moved closer to the Ministry of Magic.
The current Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, is utterly incompetent, but thankfully, he is.
Every article from King Publishing House put the minister in a good mood, and their relationship has grown even closer in the past two days.
The Weasleys signed the papers and handed them to the judge.
Lucius did not wish to linger and left once the matter was more or less settled.
But I must admit that seeing Arthur Weasley made me feel like a defeated dog, forced to bow my head.
That's cool!
Go back and have a couple of drinks with Xixi before Xiaolong comes back.
Draco, still in St. Mungo's, was completely unaware that he was being disliked.
Landric had been very indulgent towards people these past few days in order to observe him, which allowed Draco to enjoy a few days of blissful bliss.
At that moment, each of them held a newspaper, with Draco leaning against Landric.
"Hey bro, haven't you noticed how handsome my dad is?"
He clicked his tongue and stared at his father's face with a sigh.
"Um"
"Huh? Huh? No, actually he's not that handsome, he's a bit old!"
Landric: Does the Godfather know how filial you are?
The owl flew to the window, and Landric beckoned to it with his finger, and the envelope fell into his hand.
Landric slowly opened the envelope, skimming through the pages.
Draco didn't ask what was wrong. He rummaged through the drawers and found some food to feed the owl, and poured the rest into the bracelet snake.
Draco's ears finally perked up and heard the sound after the owl had eaten and drunk its fill and flapped its wings and flew away.
"I won't be going for the rest of this school year."
Draco: ? ? No, it's already so open and aboveboard that you just say you won't play anymore?
Look my eyes, tell me why!
"And what about me?"
"what ever"
"Then I won't go either." If there's a choice, who would choose to be a left-behind child? With his brother's intelligence, why can't he teach him?
The group buy starts instantly.
Draco's fingers twitched as he ran over and grabbed Landric's sleeve. "Brother, your vacation..."
Landric tried to pull up his sleeves. "We're having a party in a couple of days, and we'll invite you."
Draco:
Screw the party, he's not even my dance partner.
"Will you be playing, bro?"
"Yes," Draco said, sticking his butt out. He knew exactly what kind of nonsense this guy was about to spout.
"Actually, I can be a girl too..."
"Get lost, haven't you had enough of a commotion these past few days?"
Draco stopped tugging at Landric's sleeve and instead sullenly squatted in a corner, growing mushrooms.
Landric stared at Draco's expression, his gaze momentarily dazed.
like……
"I should be away from the magical world during the holidays."
Draco: !! "Did you still get tested? Brother. I should have known..."
Landric's arm vein throbbed. Which bastard turned Draco into this state?
I suddenly wish I could turn into an octopus and spin my fan eight times.
Seeing Draco's hesitant expression, Landric sighed. "I want to go and see other countries."
Draco breathed a sigh of relief. "Alright, let me go with you?"
"Go to the Muggle world"
Draco couldn't catch his breath. He raised his wrist and stared suspiciously at the basilisk.
Did you say something nonsense? That's the dirty Muggle world!
The basilisk felt as if a huge pot had crushed it, and even though it had a spine, it couldn't withstand such weight.
Red-bean eyes stared fiercely at Draco.
The old man with clear broth stewed the snake, and even the snake didn't dare to deceive the pretty girl.
Draco wouldn't listen to his explanation. There are only three living things here; if it wasn't him, then who else could it be but me?
"Snap!" The snake pancake reappears.
Basilisk: You wretched living father.
"Dude, what's so great about the Muggle world?!"
Could Landric not see the subtle tension between the man and the snake? He pried the snake off and wrapped it around Draco's wrist.
"Take good care of yourself, this is for your protection."
The few simple words startled Draco.
Seeing the worried and disapproving look on the person in front of him, Landric rarely spoke up.
"I'm going to China to take a look."
He wanted to see if that place was the China he remembered. As time went by, his hometown seemed to gradually fade from his mind.
Landric was somewhat frightened. If he had even forgotten where he came from, what about forestry?
He hasn't killed him yet!
But Draco had no idea what Landric was thinking; he felt he might as well remain petrified.
At this time, is there still a war going on in China?
Although he looked down on Muggles, he wasn't entirely ignorant about Muggles' guns and ammunition.
What's the difference between that and the Killing Curse?
Oh, there are differences; the gun doesn't have a wind-up animation.
Draco pried open the basilisk's eyelids. "Come on, petrify me. Bullets hitting rocks shouldn't hurt. I can follow you and act as a shield."
Anyway, he was determined to follow his brother.
The basilisk's eyes were ripped open and bulged out. It slapped Draco's hand away with its tail and flicked its tail in disgust.
People's intelligence levels do vary greatly.
If there hadn't been thorough preparations, why would the beauty suddenly bring up the idea of going to China?
But even I, a snake, am a little scared.
This time we have to hide it better. We can't let it be like last time when Salazar took it out and it got caught by the Chinese and used to make medicinal wine.
