Chapter 104: Sorry to Bother You, Lucius
Chapter 105 I’m embarrassing you Lucius
As soon as they met, Mr. Weasley greeted them warmly and greeted them for a while.
Everyone parted on the marble steps outside the bank.
While Percy mutters about getting a new quill, Fred and George spot their Hogwarts friend Lee Jordan.
Mrs. Weasley and Ginny are going to a shop that sells used robes.
Mr. Weasley insisted on taking Zhang Xiao and Hermione's parents to the Leaky Cauldron for a drink.
No, Mr. Arthur, do you still have money to drink?
"Meet at Flourish and Blotts Bookstore in an hour to buy you textbooks." Mrs. Weasley told her as she took Ginny and left.
"Don't go to Knockturn Alley!" she shouted at the twin brothers' backs.
Zhang Xiao and the three little ones were strolling along the winding streets paved with cobblestones.
They bought four cones on the way, so they ate ice cream and wandered around the alley, browsing the dazzling store windows.
Ron pointed at the complete set of Chudley Cannons uniforms displayed in the window of the Quidditch boutique and said with a smile: "I have one too, given by Zhang!"
This sentence aroused a burst of envious exclamation from the other greedy little wizards. This is not cheap!
Ron followed the big guy and left with unprecedented satisfaction.
He was even willing to follow Hermione to buy ink and parchment, the smell of which always made him want to vomit.
In a junk shop, they found Percy engrossed in a very boring book: "How Prefects Gain Power."
Ron whispered that Percy wanted to be the Minister of Magic in the future.
An hour later, they walked towards Flourish and Blotts Bookstore. They were not the only ones who went to the bookstore.
Zhang Xiao found that there were more people outside the store than before.
A large banner was pulled out upstairs: Gilderoy Lockhart's autographed autobiography is for sale today at 12:30-4:30 pm
"We can meet him in person!" Hermione exclaimed. "I mean, he wrote almost all the books on the list!"
The crowd seemed to be mostly filled with witches around Mrs. Weasley's age. A tired-looking wizard stood at the door and said: "Ladies, be quiet...don't crowd and be careful of the books."
They struggled to get in through the cracks among the people.
A queue stretched from the door to the back of the bookstore, where Gilderoy Lockhart was signing books.
They sneaked over to where the Weasleys and Grangers were lining up.
Zhang Xiao searched around and found his parents sitting on the second floor calmly drinking black tea.
"Oh, it's great that you're here," said Mrs. Weasley.
She was breathing rapidly, patting her hair constantly, and her face was red.
"We'll see him soon"
Gradually, they came into sight of Gilderoy Lockhart.
He sat behind a desk, surrounded by large photographs of himself, faces winking at the crowd, flashing dazzlingly white teeth.
The real Lockhart wore robes as blue as the forget-me-nots, which matched his blue eyes.
The pointed wizard hat is playfully tilted on his curly hair.
A grumpy little man held up a large black camera and jumped back and forth taking pictures.
Each time the flash flashed blindingly, plumes of purple smoke erupted from the camera.
"Get out of the way," he yelled to Ron, backing up to get a better angle. "This is for the Daily Prophet."
"It's amazing." Ron said, rubbing the sore instep of the man's step.
Then, just like what he had seen in his previous life, poor Harry was treated as a mascot. Lockhart pulled him over and turned him over and took many photos.
And announced on the spot that he was about to become the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts.
It has to be said that Professor Hogwarts still has some weight, and his fans immediately became even more crazy.
Screaming for Lockhart, and as if losing his mind, he took out his gold galleons and bought sets of his works.
Even if there are too many at home.
When Harry came back in a daze, he was still holding a complete set of Lockhart's works that was almost one meter high.
He was so heavy that he staggered a little when he walked, and he finally managed to get out of the center of public attention and to the wall, where Ginny was standing next to her new cauldron.
"Here are you," Harry poured the book into the cauldron and said vaguely to her, "I'll buy it myself -"
"Potter, Weasley, meet again, and hello, this lady." A voice sounded a bit high-pitched and arrogant.
Then his voice immediately changed completely.
"Zhang! Long time no see!"
"Malfoy???"
Zhang Xiao couldn't help but laugh, and stepped forward to give the stinky-looking guy a hug.
Harry and Ron stood there with gloomy faces, not knowing what attitude to take towards him.
Their current state is very subtle. They are neither friends nor enemies. They will make insulting remarks to each other when they meet. They dislike each other but have no hatred.
Not to mention that two months ago they had a 'birth and death' adventure together.
Asking Harry and Ron to speak harshly to their 'comrades', they couldn't do it yet, so they could only stay there and stare at Malfoy.
As if this could glare him away.
"Ron! Harry!" Mr. Weasley squeezed over with Fred and George.
"People here are crazy, let's get out quickly."
"Ah, isn't this Arthur Weasley?" He put one hand on Draco's shoulder, with a sneer on his face that was common on Malfoy's face before.
"Lucius." Mr. Weasley nodded coldly.
"I heard that Director Weasley has been very busy with official duties recently," Lucius said.
"So many searches... I guess they paid you overtime, right?"
He reached into Ginny's cauldron and pulled out a tattered "Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration".
Zhang Xiao's eyes fixed, here it comes! Here it is!
"It seems not. My God, if you can't even get a good reward, what's the point of being like this?"
Harry, Ron and the Weasley brothers have clenched their fists, and Mr. Weasley's face is even redder than Ron and Ginny.
Zhang Xiao stared at him with burning eyes. It's hard for you to come out to put the diary in order to create a conflict, Lucius.
"Dad!" To everyone's surprise, it was Malfoy who shouted first. He pursed his lips, and there was a trace of embarrassment on his pale face.
I used to think that I was very handsome when I ridiculed others for being poor, but since I learned what a "real noble" is.
And the letter from Zhang Xiao during the summer vacation, Malfoy felt that his father's behavior was simply... simply low!
Lucius wanted to say something, but seeing that Malfoy's eyes had begun to redden, he still closed his mouth and said to Zhang Xiao politely with a cold face:
"Zhang, as a noble person like you, you should participate more in our great cause in full swing.
Instead of."
He glanced at the Weasley family who were almost burning, and said contemptuously:
"Dealing with a declining family, because they are... worthless!"
With a clang, Ginny's crucible flew out.
Mr. Weasley rushed towards Mr. Malfoy and knocked him into a bookshelf, and dozens of thick spell books fell on their heads. Fred and George shouted: "Beat him, Dad!"
Mrs. Weasley screamed: "Don't do this, Arthur, don't do this!"
The crowd retreated in panic, knocking down more bookshelves.
Only then did my parents stick their heads out from the second floor and stare down. They found that it was Arthur who was riding on Lucius and dunking and beating him up, so they turned their heads back and ignored him.
Lucius used the Dao Sect as a tool to make money, and the Dao Sect also looked at Lucius in the same way.
One was a tool that they didn't know well and used each other, and the other was their friend. It was obvious which one to choose.
Well. Lucius's play was almost over. In order to protect his family and cut off from the Dark Lord, Lucius really tried his best.
Hiss. At least he got hit by a dozen punches? His nose was crooked! So dedicated!
Malfoy stood there with his fists clenched. He wanted to rush up to protect his father several times, but he held back in the end.
Then he held back his tears and shouted to Ron: "This is a duel between fathers. I won't intervene, but Weasley, I will remember this grudge!"
What kind of Eula behavior is this!
Just based on what Lucius said just now, who can stand it! He directly insulted the whole family. It was probably asking for a hammer and getting a hammer. It was not unfair at all.
It's probably unrealistic to expect Hagrid to pull the two apart. The big guy was so focused on his Norbert that he had already gone back.
Seeing the situation gradually getting out of control, Zhang Xiao gently hooked his fingers, and the lightning-struck wooden wand flew out of the wand bag on his waist with a tremor of joy and fell into his fingers.
The wand seemed to have turned into a pen, and it easily drew a strange rune in the air.
Drawing runes in the air, thunder!
This chapter uses a lot of the original work, so I will update it directly. It would be unfair to put it on tomorrow to cheat everyone's subscription money.
These chapters were written intermittently, so they are a bit scattered, and they were not very smooth when they were written. They will be available at 12 noon tomorrow, and I will prepare to collapse the plot from the next chapter. Thank you for your support.
