HP: White Lord of Slytherin
Chapter 65 Malfoy's Ambition
The next day, the atmosphere in the auditorium was very depressing. Even Lockhart, who always loved to liven up the atmosphere, just lowered his head to eat. It seemed that the attack on the students yesterday also frightened him.
The only noise in the entire hall was when the owls appeared. Draco received a letter today.
After reading it, he pulled Gloria, who was thinking, and ran out, and stopped at the edge of the Black Lake.
The wind of this season was slightly cool, bringing a moment of clarity to her brain. "Why did you pull me out so suddenly?"
Draco shook the parchment letter in his hand. "Father said he came to school last night and saw Minister of Magic Fudge taking away the murderer, who was also the one who opened the Chamber of Secrets fifty years ago, the big, stupid Hagrid."
Gloria: “…”
Don't be too outrageous. Hagrid is obviously a half-giant. She would rather believe that Harry is a descendant of Slytherin's branch than to say that he is the murderer who opened the Chamber of Secrets.
Seeing that she didn't believe him, Draco handed her the letter.
The letter not only mentioned that Hagrid was taken away, but also that Mr. Malfoy coerced and bribed other directors to sign a joint letter to force Headmaster Dumbledore to leave and suspend him from his post.
No wonder Professor McGonagall announced in the morning that Headmaster Dumbledore would temporarily leave the school. It turned out that Mr. Malfoy was really successful.
Draco said, "If we can kick that biased headmaster out of the school, we can find an opportunity to expel him completely in the future. Then my father will join forces with other directors to elect a headmaster who is biased towards us pure-blood wizards. Then Hogwarts will be in the hands of the pure-blood wizard families."
Gloria read the letter and folded it before returning it to him. "The two incidents that happened yesterday have already caused panic among the student body. Now that Headmaster Dumbledore has left, it's hard to say whether Hogwarts will be closed."
The young man didn't care and shrugged, "Hasn't the murderer been caught? It won't be long before everyone knows about it. Once the stupid big guy is convicted, everything will be over."
"Do you really believe that Hagrid is the murderer?" Gloria said, "He was obviously wrongly accused."
Draco looked towards the Black Lake, his eyes flashing with an ambiguous light. "Of course I know he's not that stupid big guy who only knows how to raise strange magical animals and wish he could become the same kind as those monsters... But so what? If someone takes the blame, the school will be fine. Even if the Monster of the Chamber of Secrets still comes out to attack students, Slytherin House will be fine." He became more and more excited as he spoke, as if he saw a bright future. "Maybe we can drive away the other three houses and fulfill Salazar Slytherin's wish to only allow pure-bloods to study at Hogwarts!"
Gloria was not surprised when he said this, "Believe me, if Salazar were still here, he would definitely be more worried about whether the school could continue to operate."
After that, no matter which house they attended classes with, they would always look at Slytherin students with hostility.
Of the four houses, except Slytherin, all the others had victims. The girl who was petrified in Ravenclaw was a half-blood. Gryffindor was the worst, with two students and a ghost.
Slytherin House was happy to see this happen, thinking that the heir must be in their house.
The three colleges were unwilling to get close to them, and classes were clearly divided.
Gloria didn't look for Harry and Ron. If she got close to them at this time, she wasn't afraid of the Slytherin students gossiping, but she couldn't do that to Harry and the others.
Hermione couldn't be visited, and Madam Pomfrey had been keeping a close eye on the petrified students, refusing any visit from any other students for fear that they would be attacked a second time.
·
Headmaster Dumbledore has been away from school for two weeks, and the school is still in a tense atmosphere during this period. Students are escorted by professors in every class to prevent anyone from being left alone.
Hagrid's verdict came two days ago. The Ministry of Magic determined that he was the murderer and put him in Azkaban.
When Gloria got the news, she rolled her eyes secretly and knew that those guys in the Ministry of Magic were unreliable.
The Transfiguration class was over and Professor Snape was already waiting for them at the door, while Professor McGonagall was about to send the Ravenclaw students to the next class.
When they arrived at the door of the Potions department, they met the Gryffindor students escorted by Professor Flitwick. Neither side let the other into the classroom. Gloria and Draco stood at the back of the line, waiting slowly to go in.
Today Crabbe and Goyle were sitting in front of them. Gloria was getting ready and she saw Harry and Ron behind them from the corner of her eye. Draco hadn't noticed this yet as he was busy sharing his plans for the weekend with her.
It was not until Professor Snape picked a fight with these two unlucky guys that Draco realized who was sitting behind them. Instead of making any sarcastic remarks, he gave them a very provocative look.
The Gryffindor students in the classroom all shrank their necks as Professor Snape criticized them one by one, and they were all angry but dared not say anything.
When the get out of class was almost over, everyone had almost finished their potions and started packing up to follow the professor to the auditorium.
Crabbe smiled and turned around and said, "Draco, your father is too powerful. After Dumbledore was driven out, those Gryffindors are like sick cats with their tails between their legs."
"Heh—" Draco sneered, enjoying such flattery.
Harry and Ron were standing behind with angry faces. They were wondering why Headmaster Dumbledore suddenly left school. It turned out that Malfoy's father was behind it!
Goyle then asked: "When Dumbledore steps down completely, who will be the next headmaster? It won't be Professor McGonagall!"
Draco raised an eyebrow, "Once that old man is expelled, Professor McGonagall won't be around for long..."
Professor Snape happened to be patrolling their place. Draco was calm and said directly, "Professor Snape, will you apply to be the next headmaster? If you apply, my father and other directors will definitely vote for you!"
Gloria swore that this might be the only time in her life that she saw Professor Snape smile so faintly.
Professor Black Bat no longer had a sullen face, and said modestly: "The principal is only away temporarily, I believe he will return to school."
Harry and Ron thought that he was just saying nice things on the surface, but he might be planning to find the Malfoy family and ask them to vote for him in the future!
Professor Snape returned to his expressionless face and walked away. Draco said to Goyle, "Just wait and see. The next headmaster will definitely be someone who favors pure-blood wizards."
Seamus Finnigan of Gryffindor was vomiting into the cauldron, and even Neville Longbottom was glaring at Draco and his gang with anger.
Gloria paid no attention to these looks and quickly tidied up the items on the desk. "It's time to clean up," she reminded Draco.
As Draco slowly packed the books, he said in a malicious tone, "I can't believe that those clay figures haven't packed up and gone home yet. I bet five Galleons that the next attack won't be petrification, but death."
Gloria sighed secretly. Draco was really not afraid of being beaten up. Fortunately, the bell rang and everyone got up to pack their things. The classroom was in chaos.
Ron at the back had already jumped up, "I'm going to beat him up! That bastard!"
He was stopped by Harry, Dean and others who shared the same dormitory.
