Unbehaved Hufflepuff

Chapter 55 Guests at Hogwarts



"Are you kidding me? Are you being reasonable?"

Draco seemed to have heard some funny joke.

"I think he's pretty easy to talk to and a pretty good person."

Lumi finished the food in his hand and said, "Your father must love you, as long as you tell him properly."

Draco, who was not comforted at all, grimaced and pricked the toast in front of him.

Hermione beside him also seemed to have little appetite. She cast her gaze at Draco from time to time, and looked at the door with very worried eyes.

"I wouldn't waste my time if I were you."

Lumi wiped his mouth and said, "Isn't it more meaningful to enjoy breakfast with the people you like now than to worry?"

This sentence made Draco and Hermione blush. The two looked at each other shyly, and then ate their food stiffly.

Giving up the space to the two of them, Lumi walked out.

There were many guests coming to Hogwarts today, and they didn't know what Dumbledore was planning.

Lumi planned to take a look while there was still time.

He quietly came to the corner of the eighth floor and concentrated his magic power in the principal's office.

Today's guests are in the principal's office, including Dumbledore and Harry.

"Dumbledore, are you kidding me?"

The fat middle-aged man sitting on the sofa patted the table, and then looked at Dumbledore with some timidity.

"Oh, Connelly, this is no joke."

Dumbledore glanced in Lumi's direction, said nothing, and focused his attention on the middle-aged man.

"The case fifty years ago has been closed, and now you want to overturn it? Use a secret room that you don't know exists, or a fictitious basilisk?"

Cornelius Fudge, current Minister of Magic, is a frequent speaker in newspapers.

He was accompanied by two adult wizards. Judging from the magic power fluctuations on their bodies, they should be Aurors.

The platinum-blond man sitting on the other sofa was Lucius Malfoy, the father Draco had been worried about all morning.

There is a short humanoid creature beside him. This creature is covered in magic power, and it seems to be a collection of magic power.

It looks like it should be a house elf.

These are our guests today.

Lumi ate the melon with great interest.

"The basilisk exists, and that fresh snake slough can prove it!"

Seeing that the minister refused to overturn the verdict, Harry became anxious and said directly: "Hermione and Lumi can prove it, as well as Malfoy."

"Ah!"

Lucius snorted and looked at Harry unkindly.

"Putting my son in danger, is this Hogwarts, which you claim to be absolutely safe?"

Unlike Fudge, Lucius is the school director of Hogwarts, and he and several other school directors fund the entire school's three meals a day.

Lucius, who controls the school's lifeline, doesn't care whether Dumbledore is the White Devil or not, and directly attacks.

"Oh, Lucius, it was an accident, Draco will be safe."

When Dumbledore faced Lucius, his attitude was more serious than when facing Fudge.

Seeing Dumbledore's change of attitude, Fudge looked a little ugly.

"Accident? When I found out today that my son was with a Gryffindor, I almost choked to death in an accident!"

Speaking of this, Lucius looked at Harry with an unkind expression and said in a gloomy voice: "Their relationship started in that damn Chamber of Secrets. So, Mr. Harry Potter, can you tell me who brought them together?" Together?"

Lucius's aggressive posture made the two Aurors on the side feel that he had some substantial evidence.

Also, although the news that Hogwarts was invaded by Voldemort last year was not made public, who said there were too many students?

Some news does not need to be spread deliberately to let many people know about it.

Harry Potter, the savior who protected the Sorcerer's Stone and killed Voldemort last year.

It makes sense to take the initiative to destroy Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets this year, right?

"It's Lumi."

"Cough cough!"

The two Aurors who were eating melon suddenly started coughing on the side as if they were choked by saliva.

Several people present looked at them with strange eyes, and then looked away.

"The Lumi you are talking about is Lumi Gugliel?"

Lucius narrowed his eyes, as if he didn't expect this answer.

Harry didn't expect that his words would cause such a big reaction from the two Aurors. He was a little confused when he heard Lucius's question.

"Yes, when I rushed to the women's bathroom, I met Draco and Hermione at the door."

Encouraged by Dumbledore's eyes, Harry told what he knew.

He hid the Parseltongue part, and the secret room was opened because Lumi broke the curse.

This was also a confession that the four of them had arranged in advance. After all, the existence of Parseltongue could indirectly cause Harry to be expelled from Gryffindor. Lumi said that he could blame it on him at will.

According to Lumi, this was one of the rewards for letting Harry open the door.

As for why Harry went there, the answer was because he was worried about his friend Hermione.

Why doesn't Weasley come? Who knows.

When he finished speaking, Minister Fudge's expression became visibly happy.

"So, none of you have ever seen a basilisk with your own eyes. Even Gu Lier is blind."

Having grasped the key point, Fudge turned his attention to Dumbledore, his eyes burning: "No one has seen the basilisk, not even the body, right?"

"You take a mutated python skin and think it comes from a basilisk. In fact, this is your misunderstanding. It is just an ordinary animal."

Hearing this, Dumbledore glanced at Lumi's position, and finally nodded regretfully.

"Ha! Sure enough, there is no evidence to prove that it was a basilisk that attacked the students, so Lovegood's report can be dismissed and the case is closed!"

Fudge was very happy and clapped his hands.

A dark-skinned Auror handed him a letter.

Opening the letter, there were a bunch of words written on it. The letter was signed: Xenophilius Lovegood.

"Scared me, Dumbledore, there is no danger in the school, right?"

He crumpled the letter paper into a ball and threw it into the trash can. He said in a relaxed tone: "This is just a playful girl who had a conflict with her family. The parents heard some rumors and thought that something that did not exist had kidnapped his daughter. And until now Only then did I realize that this was just a joke played by a few children.”

"And Xenophilius Lovegood will go to the Wizengamot because of false accusations against Hogwarts."

Hearing this, Lumi trembled and looked at Fudge in the office.

Lucius glanced at Fudge, rolled his eyes, and then fixed his gaze on Harry.

"So, this incident was initiated by Lumi Guriel, and Draco just responded to his call, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Malfoy."

Harry felt that Lucius should be angry, but he didn't look very angry.

"Heh, it seems Draco has fallen in love with someone he shouldn't have."

After saying this, Lucius casually hit the elf with his cane, as if this would allow him to vent the blocked emotions in his heart.
