Hogwarts Asylum

In Malfoy Manor, after Narcissa left with Catherine, only Orolin and Lucius were left in the restaurant, looking at each other in silence.

At this time, Oralin did not take the initiative to speak. He simply wanted to maintain a friendly relationship with the Malfoy family. Although to a certain extent, Oralin was indeed more familiar with this manor than Lucius, he could not let him do this. The guest takes the owner of the manor to the meeting room, right?

Moreover, just now, he took the initiative to ask Narcissa to take Catherine to visit the manor to satisfy Catherine's curiosity. This was already a bit of a guest-oriented move, and he should not go too far now.

Besides, there are several conference rooms in Malfoy Manor. Which conference room to go to is still a question.If he took Lucius into the small conference room specially used to entertain Voldemort and Sauron, then Lucius, that sensitive guy, would not be able to scare himself to death.

Orolin was not afraid that Lucius would suspect that he was Sauron. The main reason was that he had a history of going invisible to explore Nott Manor, and he didn't want Lucius to think that he was just doing the same thing again.

But I have to say that no matter how many times I come to Malfoy Manor, every time I sincerely appreciate the wealth of the Malfoy family.

O'Loughlin observed with interest the gold threads that had just been embedded on the pillars in the restaurant, as well as the patterns made of gold threads. It was a thread coiled on the pillars, speaking to the table, with gold on it. The artistry of the ringed snake is difficult to evaluate, but it fits well with the image of the Malfoy family in Eurolin's mind.

On the other hand, Lucius was also silent. As the host, not only did he not take the initiative to say anything, he was also thinking about Olorin's intention of bringing a foreign aristocratic woman to the banquet and letting her tour around the manor after the meal.

Orolin didn't want that woman to step in early so that when a conflict broke out later, Malfoy Manor would be set on fire, right?

Why is Olorin so silent?Didn't he come to blame himself for sending that notebook to Hogwarts?Or is it that he has already begun to brew a violent rage?Is he now watching for the best fire spots in the restaurant?

Lucius couldn't help but feel a little worried...

"Master...Master...Dobby, can you clear the table?"

The silence in the dining room was finally broken as the high-pitched and trembling voice of Dobby, the Malfoy house elf, sounded.

Lucius breathed out a faint breath. He had never sincerely appreciated Dobby as he did at this moment. Although this house elf was not as invisible as those advanced house elves, it was indeed true at this moment. It has been of great use.

In the restaurant, Lucius looked at Dobby who suddenly appeared in the corner, shrinking back, and scolded: "Didn't you see that I have an important discussion with the guests?! You despicable bitch with no eyesight, get out of here!" ."

As he said that, Lucius showed a warm smile and looked at Orolin, "I'm sorry, Michael, for making you laugh. Dobby has been following the Malfoy family for generations, so although it can't hide itself well, But I can’t drive it away.”

Although Dobby is a character with a strong presence in the original work and a tragic ending, in his previous life, O'Loughlin didn't really like this little domestic boy who always caused trouble in the name of "for Harry's good" and only helped a few times. Elf.

Now I can't say I don't like it, after all, it hasn't done those things yet, and it may not have the chance to do it, but it can't be said that I like it, I can only say that I have no feelings.

So facing Lucius, who could change his face at the speed of light, Olorin just shrugged indifferently and said: "It doesn't matter, I also have two house elves in Hogsmeade, and their presence is greater than this one." Much stronger.”

"That's not a good thing. A perfect house elf should be completely invisible to people." Lucius smiled and opened his right hand to gesture to the door and said, "Let's go to the conference room. I just came from Brazil. I imported a box of cigars, one of which costs close to seven hundred galleons. I heard that they were rubbed on the thighs of girls, and are very popular among the magical nobles in Brazil..."

Lucius was talking and leading the way. Eurolin, who was following him, was a little bit embarrassed. He did know a little bit about the cigar rubbed on the girl's thigh, but it was not from Brazil, but from Cuba.

Of course, those are just rumors spread by Cuban cigar manufacturers in order to occupy a larger market and sell them at higher prices. Although Olorin rarely smokes, he also visits Cuba when traveling around the world. However, let alone girls there, there are not many female workers under 30 years old.

But I don’t know who the wizard who sells cigars in Brazil is. He just copied the copywriting of ordinary people. Not to mention that the cigars were also obtained from ordinary people, right?One stick is close to [-] Galleons. Hey, it is indeed a popular thing among the "nobles". The point of smoking is not the taste, but the price.

Following the pace of the two of them, Lucius took Eurolin to a medium-sized conference room on the top floor. From the glass walls around the conference room and the glass shed on the top, the entire Malfoy Manor could be clearly seen. And the dazzling stars are in full view.

On the second floor, Catherine, led by Narcissa, arrived at a spacious and spotless conference room.

At this time, Narcissa enthusiastically introduced how many nobles with high status in the magical world had been received in this conference room. She even pointed to a portrait of an old man with a gray beard on the wall and said that it was a descendant of Merlin. Also visited Malfoy Manor.

However, Catherine looked gloomy. Her previous behavior was just that she had learned etiquette lessons that she had been forced to take by her father but had never been put to use. Just now, it was just a whim of hers, in order not to let Euro Lin was embarrassed and put on a posture.

Now that the excitement of attending the banquet of European nobles for the first time has passed, Catherine has returned to her true nature. She is really not interested in nobles, creatures that do not exist in the Soviet magic world.

Fortunately, Narcissa was very discerning. After realizing that what she said did not get the enthusiastic response she had received when interacting with other pure-blood female members in the past, she decisively took Catherine out of the conference room.

After walking out of the conference room, Narcissa continued walking forward when passing an old wooden door with horizontal lines, but Catherine stopped.

When Narcissa realized that Catherine had not followed, she turned to look at Catherine who was looking at the wooden door in confusion and asked: "Miss Ekaterina, is there any problem?"

"There seems to be something good in here." Catherine touched her chin and pointed to the scratches on the wooden door that started from her knees and went up to her waist. "What kind of room is this?"

Narcissa glanced at the wooden door and smiled: "That's my child Draco's storage room. It's very messy inside, so it's locked, otherwise it would be rude to let guests see it."

"The child's storage room?" Catherine's eyes lit up and she became interested, "Can I go in and take a look?"

"This..." Narcissa hesitated. She was not being modest. It was really messy inside. The main reason was that Draco didn't like letting outsiders in, even his childhood playmates, the Goyles and the Crabbes. None of the children were allowed in.

"Don't worry, I'm not afraid of being messy." Catherine thought Narcissa was hesitating about this.

This is not something you are afraid of... Narcissa cursed in her heart. She wanted to refuse Catherine's request, but when she thought of Lucius's anxious performance in the morning, she gave up the idea. If Lucius They had a good conversation over there, but Miss Ekaterina didn't entertain her well and asked her to go back and say something to Orolin. As a result, Lucius's efforts were in vain, and Narcissa would definitely not forgive herself.

Of course, Narcissa was more worried about the fact that if Oralin and the Malfoy family broke up, Draco would be in a very difficult situation, although she knew that with Oralin's personality, it was unlikely that he would be involved in a fight with the Malfoy family. The deterioration of the relationship between the Malfoy family has made things difficult for Draco. He has always only targeted the client who offended him and never implicated the innocent. However, how could Draco feel the same as an adult...

"Mrs. Malfoy?" Catherine looked at Narcissa sincerely. She saw Narcissa's embarrassment and thought that the child's storage room was just a cover-up. There were actually very important things in it, so she was considering whether to Give up the idea of ​​going in and taking a look inside. After all, she is not familiar with this family. She is just here to enjoy the scenery and a meal, so it is not easy to embarrass others.

However, before Catherine could say anything, Narcissa returned to her smile and said, "Let's take a look, since Miss Ekaterina is interested."

With that said, Narcissa came over and took out a copper key from her chest. After Catherine stepped aside, she inserted one into the keyhole and turned the door handle.

After opening the wooden door, the first thing that came into view was the various toys piled on the floor, including life-size funny dolls and building blocks the size of little fingers... Then came the surrounding walls painted pink, and the ones on the ceiling. The piece seems to set off a wave of pink evening primrose flowers.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the armor that stands in the center of the room, surrounded by a toy vacuum, holding a rapier in one hand and holding a wand in the other, with exquisite patterns carved on it.

The style of the armor fits Catherine's image of a medieval European full-armored knight, but this armor is obviously tailor-made for children because it is a little higher than Catherine's waist.

Catherine looked at the height of the armor, and then looked back at the scratches on the inside of the wooden door.

"Sorry, it's really a bit messy." Narcissa saw Catherine looking out the door and said softly. Although she said this, she had no intention of packing her things, fearing that Draco wouldn't be able to find her when he came back for Christmas. Where to put your own things.

"Ah, it doesn't matter, I asked for it myself." Catherine waved her hand, tiptoed around the toys on the ground, and approached the small armor in the middle.

The armor's surface glowed with silver, but it was difficult to tell the material it was made of just from its appearance.

But obviously, it cannot be made of pure silver. Armor made of pure silver has no defense at all, let alone resist magic. Catherine can dent it with one punch.

Through the opened helmet visor, Catherine could clearly see that there was no frame inside this armor. The reason why it could stand here was solely due to the strength of the armor itself.

What a good thing, Catherine sighed silently. If she had had such a pair of armor when she was a child, she would have dared to challenge those second and third graders even if she was not old enough to go to school.

Catherine circled around the armor, and her hands felt itchy for a moment. She reached out her right hand to the helmet, wanting to pat it. When she heard the crisp sound, Narcissa suddenly shouted: "Don't..."

However, Narcissa spoke a little too late, and Catherine's right hand finally fell on the helmet.

At that moment, a flash of light was seen on the armor, and then Catherine suddenly flew out like a frightened shrimp, arched her body, hit the wall with a muffled sound, and then slid down.

"Cough...cough..." Catherine coughed, covering her navel. At that moment, she only felt that her navel was hit by a huge force. If she hadn't been used to fighting in groups before, she had a strong ability to resist blows. She might have vomited what she just ate by now.

"Crack..." The visor on the armor suddenly closed, and then two red lights seemed to light up inside the visor. Then there was a sour metal friction sound, and the armor slowly retracted the rapier in his hand to his waist. In the scabbard, the hand holding the wand slowly raised, and a green light gradually condensed on the tip of the wand, as if it was about to be fired at the next moment.

Narcissa was so frightened that she almost flew out of her wits. She quickly took out her wand, cast an armor spell and a protective spell on herself, and then stopped in front of the armor. The green light on the wand in the armor's hand flashed and began to slowly extinguish. Then the red light in the visor shook and went out.

Seeing this, Narcissa felt relieved.

"Are you okay, Miss Ekaterina?" Narcissa looked at Catherine who was rubbing her belly with concern. "I'm really sorry, I didn't tell you in advance. That armor was customized by my lover from Mr. O'Loughlin. Yes, I always thought it could only be used to resist magic..."

Narcissa carefully explained that no outsider had ever entered this room before, and no outsider had approached or even touched the armor, so she really didn't know that the armor could move on its own.

Obviously she and Lucius often took Draco to play in this room before, and the armor never showed anything strange...

"Ahem." Catherine rubbed her belly and said with a smile, "It's okay, I'm very resistant to beatings, haha, as expected of Oluolin, it was so powerful that it almost made me vomit."

Although Catherine said this, she still had some palpitations. She had already confirmed that the position of her navel was exactly the same height as the helmet of the armor. In other words, if she had been squatting and level with the armor just now, she would have been hit. It was her head that was hit.

"Let's go to the garden to rest for a while..." Narcissa didn't dare to let Catherine stay in this room anymore, just in case the armor had other functions... But did Lucius know about this armor? full functionality?
