The Hogwarts Express traveled without incident and arrived at London Station in the evening.After getting off the train and saying goodbye to the Weasleys, I habitually shrunk my luggage to carry it with me. Hedwig had already flown back to Grimmauld Place first.Snape will teach me Apparation during this holiday. Since we have the same source of soul assimilation magic power, we don't seem to be subject to any anti-apparition restrictions. After Nimagus, the study of this spell was put on the agenda.

When Hermione was chatting with me with her cat Crookshanks in her arms, Draco, a pure-blood noble in the wizarding world, also appeared on the Muggle platform.He straightened his short platinum hair, which was not messy at all, and was uncomfortable being stared at by our weird eyes. He raised his head: "What are you looking at? When did it stipulate that pure bloods are not allowed to wait here?" I frowned slightly, and Lu Doesn't Hughes hate Muggles?Is there some conspiracy? .

Draco's strange attire (still in wizard's robes) and his platinum-blond hair quickly attracted the attention of the Muggles at the station. Wand, Hermione glared at me immediately, "Although the Ministry of Magic has lifted the ban on you not being able to use magic during the holidays, you should also pay attention to the situation around you, you are still so arrogant in such a crowded place!".

I shrugged indifferently: "Don't worry, the wand is just a stick in the eyes of Muggles."

"Hermione!" Before she could retort, the Grangers had squeezed out of the crowd, and her mother immediately pulled her over, "Let me see if you're injured...you've lost weight, that school is so dangerous, we Or don't...".

"Mom, I'm fine. I told you that the professors protect us very well, not to mention that Harry is here!" Hermione hurriedly winked at me...

"Oh, Harry! It's been two years since I've grown so tall." Ms. Granger smiled at me softly...

"This is?" Hermione's father turned to Draco.

"Nice meeting, Mr. Granger, Ms. Granger." Draco performed a standard aristocratic salute, "My name is Draco Malfoy, and I'm a classmate of Hermione and Harry. It's the first time we meet." The two were surprised They looked at each other, obviously they'd heard of Draco but hadn't seen him yet.Draco's decent behavior made it impossible to see that he used to disdain Muggles. After just standing and chatting for a while, the Grangers and Mrs. Granger showed satisfaction in their eyes...

"I heard that Hermione received a lot of care from Mr. Malfoy at Hogwarts." Mr. Granger stared at him with piercing eyes, as if he wanted to see something essential through his glamorous appearance, "Last year's flame Cup, were you the first to rescue Hermione from the lake?"

"You can call me Draco directly, sir." Draco lowered his jaw slightly, "I'm sorry, Hermione was in danger because of me that day."

Between Mr. Granger's probing and Draco's answer, Ms. Granger kept smiling and remained silent.I poked Hermione lightly, and teased in a low voice: "Hey, do you think he came out to meet your parents? Maybe Lucius Malfoy will also..."

"Don't guess." Hermione seemed a little worried, Crookshanks was hurt by her hug, and jumped back to the ground with a meow, squatting at her feet.Her gaze has been carefully searching the crowd, looking forward to and worried about the platinum nobleman who may appear, "Do you think he will be because of our business..."

"You still say I'm guessing wildly, are you just thinking wildly? Don't worry, if he wants to do something about it, he won't wait until now. Draco has already severed ties with us." And he still has to use you to consolidate His status in the wizarding world.I didn't say the last sentence, Snape and I can at least fight side by side, but Draco may become our endless enemy in the decisive battle because of his father's relationship...

"Harry!" Hermione grabbed me suddenly and hurriedly.

"What's wrong?" I followed her gaze, and under the bright lights of the station, I saw pillars of black mist thrown into the bustling crowd and gradually solidified, "Death Eaters?!" The sense of crisis suddenly rose Gives me the creeps, what's going on?Why are Death Eaters here? !Without giving me time to think, I saw them grinning and raising their wands, "Get down!" I pulled down the two women with all my strength, and then several rays of light hit the stone pillars, electric lights, and ceiling of the station, instantly shaking the mountains Shaking, there was a loud bang in my ears, broken stones and glass kept falling down, and screams filled the air.

I kept throwing armor and body protection, and there were many obstacles before I managed to protect the few of us. The surroundings were in chaos. I couldn't tell where the Death Eaters were at all, and there were crowded people everywhere I looked. "Everyone, don't disperse!" My voice was drowned in the noise. Fortunately, due to the effect of magic, the crowd has been pushed away from a certain distance, and the clever Crookshanks has already jumped into the arms of Mr. Granger. , after an initial panic, we quickly moved to the pillars of platform nine and three quarters, only to find that the entrance to the platform was blocked.

At this time, no one cared about the ban or not, and Hermione and Draco pointed their wands at the crowd one after another. "What's going on? Why did they choose to attack here?!" Hermione asked loudly, but no one answered her.

Because of the destruction of the spell, the roof of the station looked even more crumbling, large pieces of walls began to fall off, and the headlights above the head actually fell down just like that. "Wingardium Leviosa!" In order not to affect other people, I used the levitation spell to float the lamp in the air, but I couldn't find a place to place it.

"Deletrius! (Disappear without a trace)" Draco solved the problem, we looked at each other tacitly, Hermione began to use the holding spell to fix the falling stones and walls, and Draco and I smashed or Eliminate them, and at the same time need to strengthen precautions, my nerves have been tense for fear that Death Eaters will appear from somewhere.

Suddenly there was a loud noise that made people unable to stand still, and the entire ceiling finally began to collapse in an all-round way. Huge boulders fell down. In a hurry, we could only rely on our protective body to block it—when we thought it was inevitable, the boulder slammed The ground shattered in mid-air. "Grab it!" The long platinum hair was still dazzling in the smoke and dust, and Lucius Malfoy, who appeared in front of us, knocked down some stones again while waving his staff, and then a crystal ball floated among us.

"Quick! It's the port key." Seeing that the station was about to collapse, everyone put their hands on it before they had time to think.Lucius immediately tapped the crystal ball with the snake stick, "Let's go!" The gradually torn world blurred at high speed...

When we stood still dizzily, we realized that this was the hall of the Ministry of Magic. The wizards walked hurriedly, and no one showed much interest in our presence.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Granger. Someone from the Ministry of Magic will explain this matter to you and escort you back to London safely. I have to take His Excellency the Savior to meet the Minister. I regret that I can't discuss it with you in detail." Lucius said slightly He raised his chin, arrogant but still demeanor, as if the chaos just now hadn't affected him at all, the majestic snake rod knocked on the ground, and a house elf immediately appeared, "Tyre, take them to magical accidents and disasters Secretary." After the house-elf responded respectfully, he bowed slightly, "Please, sir and madam."

"I hope to see you again next time." Mr. Granger nodded.

Saying goodbye to Hermione and the others, Draco and I followed Lucius quietly, and soon came to the minister's office, and saw many familiar faces, even Professor Snape and McGonagall were here.

"Mr. Potter, so you are all right? I just sent Aurors to look for you." The new Minister of Magic, Rufus Scrimgeour, looked at me with those sharp eyes hidden under the gold-rimmed glasses, Hogwarts I've had contact with him a few times since the attack.

"I brought the savior back when I went to pick up Draco." Lucius glanced at Snape intentionally or unintentionally. Looking at me, I shook my head to indicate that I was fine. !As long as you are fine, Sirius is going crazy, I must inform him immediately, he doesn't know what will happen if he can't find you at the station. "Professor McGonagall squinted at Snape, as if blaming him for not worrying about my situation at all. As her Patronus disappeared from sight, her expression still did not relax, "Minister, that person is getting more and more serious. Arrogant, this attack is obviously aimed at Muggle-born wizards, we cannot underestimate his destructive desire. "

"I know, I never underestimated him." Scrimgeour walked back and forth a few steps with his hands behind his back, "Kingsley, get ready, we need to visit the Muggle Prime Minister as soon as possible." The black-skinned wizard who had been standing silently nodded.

"Since the acting headmaster of Hogwarts is here, may I ask in advance, are you planning to pass my application for teaching Defense Against the Dark Arts?" Lucius said unexpectedly.Hearing this, I looked at Draco in surprise, and the latter shrugged slightly to express that he didn't know. I never thought that Lucius would want to come to Hogwarts as a professor.

Professor McGonagall answered after a long silence: "Mr. Malfoy must be very busy? The professors of the college take quite a lot of time." Snape on the side had a blank expression and empty eyes, as if he hadn't listened to any conversation at all.

"Professor McGonagall seems to know the Malfoy family's property very well? Otherwise, why would you think I am very busy?" Lucius raised his eyebrows, "I will naturally perform my duties after signing the contract, so you don't need to worry about it. In addition, The headmaster of Hogwarts has been vacant for a year. Although many unpleasant things happened during the acting headmaster, the directors still trust you, Professor McGonagall, and hope that you can take office as soon as possible—and Severus? You should have seen Snape's proposal for the post of Vice-Headmaster?"

.

"The Ministry of Magic also believes that the lack of a headmaster is not good for Hogwarts in the current environment. Malfoy's proposal is good. What do you think is wrong, McGonagall?" The new Minister of Magic is not like Fudge. As weak as that, he has always acted vigorously and decisively, and his flat face always gives people a tough feeling that is not angry but powerful.

"...I have no objection." Professor McGonagall stared at Lucius closely, "I just hope Mr. Malfoy can remember that one of the duties of a professor is to protect students."

Lucius smirked: "Of course. Then, do you need any special instruction from me, the DADA professor who will take office in the next school year, during the vacation, Mr. Potter? I heard that the Ministry of Magic revoked your A ban on magic during the holidays?"

"Believe me, Your Excellency the Savior's level is not enough to meet Malfoy's standard. You might as well enjoy your last leisure time of the year if you have this spare time to waste on such thankless tasks. A wild boy with a long memory might shatter the hair you're proud of, Mr Malfoy." Snape rebuffed his offer unhurriedly.
