Hogwarts: I'm Harry's older cousin

Chapter 250, Section 248: You have a phone call, Mr. Draco. Please answer it as soon as possible.

Malfoy Estate.

The Malfoy family had just finished enjoying breakfast, gently wiping their mouths with napkins. Maintaining the most elegant and perfect appearance at all times was the most basic quality of a nobleman. Not far away, a Den Den Mushi was leisurely munching on strawberries at the table.

"Burp!" After eating a whole plate of strawberries, Den Den Mushi let out a burp and found a comfortable spot in the strawberry basket to lazily lie down.

The three people at the table clearly heard it, and Narcissa glanced at the Den Den Mushi with a hint of disdain.

Both Lucius and Narcissa had reservations about the strange thing their child had brought home.

With its strange, large eyes that resemble tentacles, its garish patterns, and its body covered in a sticky liquid, it was clearly not some rare or magical creature.

Keeping such a strange creature at home would be a disgrace to the Malfoy family if word got out.

Narcissa didn't throw it away because Draco brought it back and it seemed to value it highly.

Just treat it like a low-class pet. When you get tired of playing with it, Draco will discard it on his own without you having to lift a finger.

Narcissa comforted herself in this way.

Suddenly, the Den Den Mushi, which had been sleeping soundly in the basket, sat up abruptly. Its eyes seemed unfocused and it stared blankly into space. Just when Narcissa and the others thought it had eaten something bad, the Den Den Mushi's toothy mouth began to speak human language.

"You have a phone call, Mr. Draco."

"You have a phone call, Mr. Draco. Please answer it as soon as possible."

Lucius: ? ! !

Narcissa: !!!

Both of them were startled by the sound of the Den Den Mushi.

Draco walked leisurely to the Den Den Mushi and naturally picked up the receiver.

"Hello, this is Draco."

Upon hearing Dudley's voice on the other end of the phone, Draco immediately beamed with joy.

Narcissa looked puzzled. It seemed like Draco was talking to someone on the phone.

Because of his brief contact with the Queen and members of the English royal family, Lucius knew more than the average wizard.

Draco's current behavior is very much like using a machine for communication between Muggles, something like a telephone.

But that thing seems to be connected by a wire, and it can't communicate without the wire, and it's not an insect.

Lucius's knowledge of telephones was limited to what he knew, and out of disdain for Muggle objects, he had never used one.

While Lucius was pondering, Draco had already ended the call.

Draco still had a smile on his face after hanging up the phone.

"Draco, what's that?" Lucius asked, prompted by Narcissa's gaze.

His gaze remained fixed on the basket where the Den Den Mushi was. After ending the call, the Den Den Mushi returned to its usual listless state and lay on the basket.

"He doesn't have a father, he's just an ordinary Den Den Mushi."

Draco spoke very casually, as if he were recounting something perfectly normal.

"Muggle stuff?"

Lucius asked again.

"No, it was made by Brother D. It looks like a regular phone, but it's not the same thing."

Draco explained again, "This is an encrypted, non-sale item; currently, you can only contact Draco and his team."

"Are you able to make a call?"

"Yes."

Lucius nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

He knew that even if he pressed Draco for an answer, he might not get it.

"Father, Mother, Brother D and the others will arrive at our manor early the day after tomorrow."

Draco briefly recounted the contents of the phone call.

"Malfoy will treat them with the highest level of courtesy."

"The manor is large and there are enough rooms. If you need anything else, just tell Dobby and he will prepare everything for you."

"But I hope you remember that you are the rightful owner of Malfoy Manor."

Lucius didn't even believe it himself when he said that.

Draco's three years at Hogwarts changed him greatly. To be precise, not only Draco, but also Parkinson, Crabbe, Goyle, and other Slytherins of this generation changed a lot.

But without exception, they were all admirers of that man called Dursley.

Vita follows his lead.

As far as he knew, several Slytherin children were willing to break with their families to become his followers.

Fortunately, that person was exceptionally capable; despite being just a junior student at Hogwarts, he was able to arrange work for the Ministry of Magic.

Even Lucius would have difficulty doing this.

He manipulated Minister of Magic Fudge, making him blindly obey his orders as if under a death curse.

Fudge's recent attacks on several high-ranking officials in the Ministry of Magic are the best proof of this.

That's terrifying.

The pure-blood wizarding families were well aware of Dudley's actions, but they would never bring it up or provoke him.

Who knows if it will be another one of those people?

If you can't beat them, join them. This is what pure-blood wizards are best at. Apart from a few stubborn old men who still resist, everyone else is extremely envious of the Caro family's precise investment in the early stages.

To be honest, I didn't realize it before, but now that I think about it, when I'm with that man, I have this illusion that I'm facing that other person.

Especially since I've suffered at their hands before.

He attempted to remove Dumbledore, but not only did he fail, he was also kicked out of the board of trustees.

Compared to Lucius, Narcissa's thinking was much simpler.

The Dursleys are good to Draco, the Dursleys make Draco better, and that's enough.

In some ways, Draco is now better than her husband.

That's enough for a mother.

Early the day after tomorrow, accompanied by a distortion of the surrounding space and a series of "pop" sounds, Dudley and his two companions appeared precisely at the entrance of Malfoy Manor.

"Phantom Appearance"

Narcissa, with her sharp eyes, immediately recognized the spell that had brought the three of them there.

Although she wasn't good at fighting, she was still an adult wizard who had passed the OWLs (Ordinary Wizarding Level Exams) and NEWT (Advanced Wizarding Level Exams) with excellent results, so she naturally recognized the Apparition spell.

This is a rather profound spell. Theoretically, only wizards who are 17 years of age or older and have passed the Magical Transportation Department's exam are qualified to learn it. It is a spell that allows the user to manifest at will in any convenient place.

It can be understood as teleportation in the Wizarding World.

Compared to the Guardian Charm, the difficulty of Teleportation is less, but not by much.

The difference is that few Aurors know the Patronus Charm, while only a small number of Aurors know Apparition.

When casting this spell, you must concentrate. This is the most important thing. Otherwise, your upper body may leave the spell while your lower body remains in the same place.

The spells were taught to them by Pipilu and Luxixi, and the three of them picked them up quickly and can now cast them normally.

"D-bro, you guys have been secretly studying behind our backs again," Draco complained.

In just two or three weeks, the level of magic has dropped so much.

No, I must hurry up and study.

During the holiday following the third year of Hogwarts, students learn spells that are typically only available to students in the sixth and seventh years.

It's so curly.
