"Transaction?" Lucius raised his eyebrows. "On behalf of Hogwarts?"
"No, on our own behalf."
Lucius sneered: "If that's the case, then there's nothing to talk about. I'm sorry I won't accompany you."
"It seems that Mr. Lucius does not want to save your son," Hermione stood up calmly and pretended to leave. "In this case, let's go back, Professor Lockhart."
Draco?
Hearing this, Lucius's face changed.
"Miss Granger!"
Suddenly, Narcissa's voice came from behind, anxious.
"We are listening. Please forgive Lucius for his rudeness. I apologize to you two on his behalf."
Narcissa bowed deeply, then walked quickly to Lucius, signaling him with her eyes not to be impulsive.
Only then did Lucius notice that Lockhart had been standing behind Hermione like a follower the entire time, without saying a word.
This made him look surprised.
Although Lockhart is boastful, those dazzling achievements are not fake. He always thought that Lockhart was the leader in this trip.
But now it seems that the one who really has the final say is the little girl Hermione?
He didn't know that Lockhart's "achievements" were all free. If he hadn't been cheated before, he would definitely be very enthusiastic about Lockhart.
Lucius was still pondering their relationship when Hermione spoke:
"We can discuss the details of the deal later. To show my sincerity, I can help wake up Draco first."
When Narcissa heard this, her eyes lit up and she stepped forward quickly:
"real?!"
Having said that, she immediately pulled Hermione towards the bedroom, fearing that she would change her mind.
Lucius opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but finally swallowed it back.
He knew that if he dared to displease Hermione and delay saving Draco, Narcissa would give him a big beating on the spot.
In the bedroom, Draco lay on the bed, his face pale.
Hermione secretly communicated with the magic book and asked Voldemort to return the part of soul power that he had absorbed.
Xiao Fu agreed readily.
Anyway, Hermione has plenty of soul energy, so she can just replenish it later.
As the soul energy was injected, Draco's face gradually turned red.
Narcissa excitedly held Hermione's hand and thanked her repeatedly.
At this moment, bloodline doesn't matter.
Hermione was the cutest person in her eyes.
Even Lucius' expression softened a lot.
After a while, Draco woke up slowly.
"Mom, what's wrong with me?"
As soon as he woke up, he saw a group of people gathered around the bed, he asked in a daze.
Before he could finish his words, he suddenly saw Hermione with a smile on her face behind Lucius.
"what--!"
Draco's eyes suddenly widened, his whole body couldn't help but tremble, and the next second he fainted again.
The last thought before losing consciousness was:
I woke up suddenly and when I opened my eyes, Hermione was making a fuss at home.
He must not have woken up yet.
Narcissa was horrified: "What...what is going on?"
"Maybe he was frightened by Mr. Lucius's expression."
Hermione spread her hands, her tone innocent.
"I guess this kid has been beaten a lot since he was young. Look, after getting into trouble, he was so scared when he saw his father's dark face that he trembled."
When Narcissa heard this, she immediately became furious:
"Lucius!"
She stared at Lucius with a look that seemed to want to eat him alive.
"Mr. Lucius, please get out first!"
Hermione spoke at the right time and rescued Lucius.
"Madam Narcissa, please take care of Draco first. Mr. Lucius and I will go out to discuss business."
Narcissa nodded and said nothing more.
The two returned to the living room.
Hermione looked at Lucius and said meaningfully:
"It seems that Mr. Lucius is usually too harsh on Draco."
Lucius recalled his son's terrified expression and fell silent.
Could it be that he was really too harsh on Draco?
Coming back to his senses, he looked at Hermione, opened his mouth, and seemed to be having some huge psychological struggle.
After holding it in for a long time, he finally said:
"Thank you."
It's not easy to get Lucius to say these two words... Hermione thought.
It seems that although Marty's way of education is strict, he is his biological son and the only heir to the family, so he still feels sorry for Draco.
Lucius quickly adjusted himself and returned to his usual arrogance, but after what had just happened, his attitude had obviously improved a lot.
"Tell me, what kind of deal do you two want to discuss?"
Chapter 115 Lucius, please sit down
"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to tell Mr. Lucius."
Hermione seemed to suddenly remember something and said with a smile: "Professor Lockhart will be stepping down at the end of this school year. He plans to develop in the Ministry of Magic."
Lucius raised his eyebrows, picked up the teacup and took a sip, but didn't respond.
But I was wondering in my heart, what is this boastful guy going to do?
"That's great, I wish Professor Lockhart all the best in his future." He put down his teacup and said politely, "But what does this have to do with me?"
"Professor Lockhart intends to join the Department of Law Enforcement, starting as an Auror."
Hermione paused:
"You know, Aurors need to have outstanding achievements to be promoted, but those dark wizards are like rats, hiding deeper than anyone else."
"So..." Hermione deliberately prolonged her voice, "We need someone who... um... often deals with those dark wizards to provide some information, or simply lure them out."
Lucius heard the hidden meaning in Hermione's words, and his face instantly darkened.
"Ms. Granger, you have the wrong person."
Lucius said coldly: "I don't know any dark wizards. You should go find those information dealers."
"Oh, what Mr. Lucius said..."
Hermione sighed in a pretentious manner, and lowered her voice: "I have heard from someone that all the Death Eaters under Voldemort are good people with noble character..."
"Shut up!"
Lucius's eyes went dark and he slammed the table so hard that the teacup jumped up.
"Miss Granger, I repeat, I have nothing to do with dark wizards or Death Eaters!"
Lucius's face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't try to do anything bad to me!"
"Mr. Lucius, we are all knowledgeable people. We all know exactly what your previous identity was."
Looking at Lucius who was resisting to the end, Hermione's tone was a little playful.
"If you still insist that you have nothing to do with dark wizards, then Professor Lockhart and I can only continue to help you 'publicize' outside."
Veins on Lucius' forehead were throbbing and his fists were clenched so hard that they made a crackling sound.
It was this sentence that almost got him killed last time, and now it happens again?!
You're addicted to putting the blame on others, right?
Hermione changed the subject and softened her tone: "However, if you are willing to cooperate with me, Professor Lockhart can testify on behalf of Draco."
"It proves that he was indeed under the control of Voldemort's Horcrux, which is why he did those things."
"This way, you can explain it to the Ministry of Magic more easily. Why not do it?"
"Or... you are still loyal to someone, and would rather your son get into trouble than betray your Death Eater colleagues..."
Lucius was gnashing with hatred.
"You threaten me?!"
Looking at Lockhart, who looked calm and oblivious to what Hermione did, Lucius finally understood that these two people were not here to make a deal, but were using Draco to threaten him!
The purpose is to let him help Lockhart gain merit in the Ministry of Magic.
Hermione shook her head: "If you think so, I can't help it. I... forget it, I'm just threatening you, so what?"
She didn't bother to be polite.
Mr. Lucius, you don't want Draco to...
Lucius was immediately stumped by Hermione's words.
Why doesn't this girl play by the rules?
According to standard procedures, shouldn't she first say "This is not a threat, I'm just telling you a fact", and then he can consider whether to agree or not?
Why did you admit it so directly?!
Next to him, Lockhart was also startled.
Seeing this performance, which was not even an act, he realized that Hermione had been really nice to him before. She even pretended to give him two options. Although she was very bad, her words and actions at least behaved like a civilized person.
Now, she is too lazy to even maintain her dignity.
You let yourself go as soon as you left school, showing your witch nature, right?
Hermione shrugged.
She just thought it would be more efficient to fast forward to the last step, since it was essentially a threat anyway.
Lucius came to his senses and was also angered by Hermione's threatening words. Just as he was about to explode, Hermione suddenly stood up and walked in front of him.
She leaned over, leaned close to Lucius' ear, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Don't think I don't know how the diary came into Ginny Weasley's hands."
Lucius' pupils suddenly shrank and his whole body shook.
He suddenly realized that since Hermione had known that the diary was in Ginny's hands and that he had brought the diary to the Weasley girl, then the title of heir to the Chamber of Secrets was inexplicably pinned on Draco...
I'm afraid that everything that happened in Hogwarts was planned by this little girl!
is her!
She framed Draco!
Lucius stood up, drew his wand and pointed it at Hermione.
"Whoosh-"
A green light flew past Lucius' ear.
