Dragon Roar Master at Hogwarts

Hearing the footsteps approaching, Dudley and Harry looked at each other. Both of them could see the helplessness in each other's eyes, and then quickly hid under the invisibility cloak again and hid in the corner of the room.

Click, the door was opened quickly, and a tall and thin figure walked in.Lucius Malfoy looked at the doorknob he was holding in confusion and shook his head in confusion.

"I obviously remember that it was locked before...did I remember it wrong?"

But Lucius Malfoy didn't dwell too much on this little matter. He hurried to the other corner of the room and looked at the empty wall carefully.

"Well... it's good to be here." Lucius nodded with satisfaction, then raised his wand and tapped the wall a few times.

Chirigala.

With a few crisp machine sounds, Dudley saw that the originally empty wall suddenly changed automatically, revealing a square grid, and a small wooden box was quietly placed in the hidden grid on the wall.

With a solemn look on his face, Lucius carefully took out the wooden box and placed it on the table aside, then tapped the side of the wooden box rhythmically with his wand.

Ta, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da.

Click.

When the wand struck to the last stroke, the wooden box opened with a sound, and Lucius was seen staring at the contents of the wooden box carefully, with a look of fear in his eyes, and muttering quietly to himself.

"So what does the Dark Lord mean by asking me to keep this thing? This must be a very important thing. That person will never do unnecessary things..."

"Maybe this is a very powerful black magic item, but no matter what, if someone finds this thing in my house, it will definitely become a big trouble."

"That Weasley guy, a pure-blood traitor, has been looking for reasons to search my house... Dumbledore must be behind this."

"I originally planned to find an opportunity to put it in the school to see if I could find out Dumbledore's flaws and bring him down in one fell swoop. But since that woman took the initiative..."

"Although I can't fully believe what that woman said, no matter whether the Dark Lord is resurrected or not, it would be best if we can get rid of this hot potato, and then we can explain to the Dark Lord..."

Lucius paced back and forth anxiously, feeling like he was struggling with something.But after a moment, he suddenly stopped and seemed to have made up his mind. He returned to the wooden box and carefully picked up something in his hands.

When Dudley saw the item in Lucius' hand, he couldn't help but feel a shiver in his heart. It was an ordinary diary. It looked no different from the diary in the Muggle world, but Dudley clearly felt that there was something wrong with this diary. In this diary, there is a weak but evil soul breath.

This is one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, Tom Riddle's diary.

Dudley calculated the success rate if he attacked Lucius now and snatched him away, but he still gave up. After all, even if the incident in the secret room happened again, there would always be a solution. There was no need to take such a big risk here.

Lucius sighed, stuffed the notebook into his arms, and hurried out the door.

Dudley narrowed his eyes. Listening to what Lucius said just now, it seemed that he was planning to hand over Tom Riddle's diary to the mysterious guest - but no matter who he handed it to, it would definitely turn into a lot of trouble.

"Let's follow, Dudley." Harry's voice rang in his ears, and his face was very solemn. After all, he had heard things related to the Dark Lord.

Dudley nodded. Although it might be safer to stay here, what was more important now was to find out who Lucius planned to give the diary to. Dudley had a bad feeling in his heart.

The two cousins ​​quietly left the utility room, then walked through the long corridor, returning to the original point when they were teleported here.Fortunately, perhaps because Lucius was too nervous and impatient, the door of the room where he met the guests was not closed tightly, but simply ajar.

Squeak, with the barely audible sound of the door opening, Dudley and Harry quietly entered the room that Lucius had just entered and exited.This is a uniquely decorated living room with a roaring fireplace, and Lucius and a hooded figure are sitting opposite each other in front of the fireplace.

Dobby, the house elf who had brought them here, poured tea for them cautiously and looked at the two men nervously.

"Okay, you can find a place to punish yourself now - but find a place far away and don't bother me talking to the guests."

Dobby bowed deeply, and then left tremblingly, his big ears drooping feebly.

"Mr. Malfoy...I noticed that you didn't seem to let him close the door." A clear and cold girl's voice said, "If I were you, I would pay more attention... You should know the importance of our transaction."

Dudley recognized this voice at once. It was one of the witches who rescued Ariana in the Forbidden Forest that day, the mysterious woman wearing a hood.

Lucius frowned, waved the wand in his hand vigorously, and with a bang, the door of the reception room closed instantly.

"Don't worry, there are only my wife and children in this house, and I have already told them not to come over." Lucius said softly, and then took out the diary from his arms: "This is the thing you were talking about. .....But I don’t know much about it, you can check if there is any problem yourself.”

The hooded woman took the diary and stroked the cover of the diary with her long and slender fingers. After a long time, she slowly said: "This is indeed it. You have taken good care of it, Lucius - I will tell that person that you It shows your loyalty, and he will give you a suitable reward when he really comes back."

Dudley obviously saw Lucius's body shaking slightly for a moment, but he quickly calmed down.Lucius leaned forward, and then asked in a low voice: "But besides that, what you just agreed with me..."

The hooded woman moved for a moment, and Dudley felt the cold breath emanating from her body.She carefully put the diary into her arms, and then replaced it with a large bulging bag, throwing it towards Lucius.

Lucius caught the bag and took out something like a coin from it: "Wait...this doesn't look like a Galleons, nor does it look like a Muggle coin. What is it-"

"You don't have to worry about so much. At least it's pure gold and its value won't be low." The hooded woman said in a very cold tone, "If you're worried, just melt it and use it again... But you Remember, this is not just for you, this is money for Death Eaters' activities."

Lucius looked at the coin in his hand carefully again, and after a while he nodded with satisfaction.Then Lucius knocked on the table nervously and said in embarrassment: "But it is still difficult for the Death Eaters to reconvene... After all, everyone has concerns after so many years. If that adult can show up, if--"

The hooded woman suddenly stood up, and Dudley felt as if the air in the room dropped several degrees instantly.

"Don't you all know the information about his return from the Dark Mark on your hands?" When the hooded woman spoke, she gave people a strong sense of oppression, "Is your so-called loyalty just such a cheap thing... ....Wait, something’s wrong!”

"Whoever is there, show yourself to me!"
