Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1256: Deep pit

Chapter 1258 Deep Pit

Albert's disappearance did not attract anyone's attention.

It should be said that no one knew Albert's whereabouts from the very beginning, let alone his sudden departure from England and disappearance.

So, his worries and worries were unnecessary from the very beginning.

However, some unlucky ones accidentally fell into the deep pit because of him, and now they can't even crawl out.

The unlucky guy was Lucius Malfoy, who was tasked with finding and murdering Albert not long ago.

If it is said that no one can be found from the beginning, everyone will not say anything. After all, even if no one can be found, what else can Lucius do, let alone the follow-up tasks.

But the problem now is that Lucius just learned from Yaxley that Albert's child was about to be born, and he took over the key clues of Mrs. Dale and Mrs. Mary, even how to give the mud Yaxley helped formulate such an impressive lesson, and now Lucius only needs to carry out the original plan.

However, will things really go so smoothly?

In the eyes of Lucius Malfoy, this matter is simply a big pit.

Leaving aside the mediocre relationship between him and Yaxley, how could the other party be so kind as to share with him the information he collected so hard?

Even if it was a dream, Lucius didn't dare to think about it.

The reason for doing that was that Yaxley obviously realized that this was a big hole, so he threw the hottest potato directly at him.

Let's not talk about taking a bite of a hot potato now, it's already good if you don't choke to death because of it.

To make matters worse, the Dark Lord had officially handed over the burden of dealing with Albert to their father and son.

This made Lucius wonder, did the Dark Lord intend to use the hands of the Mudblood to get rid of them?

It was not that Lucius was not loyal enough to the Dark Lord, but that the Dark Lord had wanted to do that before, and wanted to use Dumbledore to kill Draco as punishment for the Malfoy family.

If it wasn't for Snape's help, and Draco escaped by chance, his son would probably have died.

Lucius actually knew the reason very well: the notebook that the Dark Lord asked him to keep at the beginning was completely damaged because of him, and this incident became a thorn in the Dark Lord's heart.

But even if he knew the reason, Lucius couldn't do anything about it.

He just wants to keep his family, other things are no longer important.

However, the current situation is not optimistic.

Since Mrs. Dale and Mrs. Mary were controlled by Yaxley using the Imperius Curse, they have never received any news from Albert, and they have never gone to his wife for a physical examination. What it means is self-evident.

Perhaps, that damned Mudblood, Albert Anderson, had divined this matter very early on and completely abandoned the two of them.

As a result, Lucius can't find Albert's whereabouts at all.

Getting a so-called good card from the beginning, but ending up like this in the end is undoubtedly the best performance of incompetence in the eyes of the Dark Lord, and incompetent Death Eaters will one day be ruthlessly abandoned.

In order to solve the problem and find information about Albert, Lucius had to seek help from his old friend Severus, hoping to pry more useful information from the mouths of the two therapists.

"I'm afraid your hopes will come to nothing. They all signed a strong magic contract with Anderson, probably to prevent the secret from being leaked."

Snape let Lucius see the magic brand emerging from the backs of Mrs. Dale and Mrs. Mary's hands, shook his head and reminded: "I don't recommend you use Veritaserum or Legilimency, doing so may cause them to directly Death will make them lose their last bit of value."

"Then what should I do now!"

Lucius couldn't imagine the terrible punishment he would suffer if he failed in his mission.

He knew he had to do something, or father and son would be dead before the **** Mudblood was found.

"I said earlier that Anderson is difficult to deal with, so don't provoke him."

Snape was not optimistic about Lucius' mission, which was basically impossible to complete.

Once they really face Albert, they are absolutely dead.

That guy was never merciful, the other party let them go last time, more because of Dumbledore.

"I don't want to provoke him anymore." Lucius had a bitter face, and if possible, he also wanted to stay away from that damned Mudblood.

Unfortunately, it's too late.

Because of his previous experience, both the Death Eaters and the Dark Lord had "high hopes" on him, and they would not allow him to refuse, and Lucius did not have the courage to refuse at all.

No Death Eater dared to refuse the Dark Lord.

"Maybe..." Snape hesitated for a moment, before giving his own suggestion, "You can try to help in other ways to make yourself look useful."

"Help in other ways?"

Lucius thought about the old friend's words carefully, and soon understood what he meant.

After all, killing Scrimgeour was the most important thing at the moment, and he happened to be useful in that regard, and although that was not his task, Yaxley would definitely need his help.

Lucius knew the Ministry of Magic better than most Death Eaters, and he knew better how to let the Dark Lord control the Ministry of Magic. Among the prisoners rescued with him last time, several of them could be used.

"Well, useful Death Eaters are not easily discarded."

Snape was well aware of his old friend's ability to protect himself, and was not worried about Lucius' safety, at least in a short time.

"As for Draco, if Hogwarts reopens, let him go back to school." He paused for a moment and said, "I should be the headmaster of Hogwarts by then."

"Thank you, Severus."

Lucius did not forget to thank his old friend, he knew that Snape's proposal was for Draco's good.

Actually, if possible, Lucius would not want his son to become a Death Eater so soon, because his son Draco was not ready at all.

Snape did not linger, and soon took his leave and left.

He actually knew the situation of the Malfoy family very well, but there was not much help he could offer.

After Snape left, Draco suddenly asked, "Father, is the Dark Lord planning to abandon us completely?"

"The situation is not as bad as you think. We are pure blood. The connection between pure blood families is deeper than you can imagine. At most we will lose something. As long as we are willing to give up, Death Eaters There will always be someone here who is willing to give us a hand instead of watching us die." Lucius tried his best to look calm, "Severus' suggestion, you should have heard it, go back to school. "

"But..."

Draco's eyes widened, he couldn't believe what his father was saying.

"Draco, you should understand our family's current situation." Lucius looked at his son and said seriously, "Even if you become a Death Eater now, it doesn't make any sense, let alone be useful." Useful. At Hogwarts, you still have at least one year of buffer time, and you can still get Severus' asylum. Before that, you have to adapt to your identity, because then you will be a real man."

Once upon a time, Lucius imagined that the Dark Lord would return and lead the Death Eaters to regain their former glory.

However, things are far more cruel than they imagined. The Dark Lord has indeed returned, but the fantasy of the past has become a fantasy.

Lucius no longer expects those things anymore, he just wants to keep his family alive from this cruel wizard war.

At least, let the Malfoy family continue.

Since Narcissa disappeared and many searches failed, Lucius had a very bad premonition. Perhaps, he would never see Narcissa and his wife again.

…

After getting the reminder from Snape, Lucius hurried to visit his "old friend".

"Old man, what brought you here."

Yaxley greeted Lucius with a smile on his face.

"I've been in some trouble lately."

Although Lucius wanted to smash the hypocritical face in front of him with a punch, he knew he had to hold back.

"I see more than a little bit!"

Looking at the lonely Lucius, Yaxley smiled happily.

Lucius didn't pay attention to the smile on Yaxley's face, and said why he came: "The two healers you controlled earlier have probably been abandoned by that Mudblood, and I have completely lost A clue to that mudblood."

"Are you sure? That's a clue that I spent a lot of time finding, and no one discovered it at all."

Yaxley raised his eyebrows slightly, and was very surprised by this. He was very cautious when he did this, after all, his opponent was the insidious and cunning Albert Anderson.

"Of course I would like to believe you, but the problem is that Mudblood is a master prophecy, he probably expected all of this, so he simply gave up on them." Lucius said helplessly.

"So, you're blaming me?" Yaxley raised an eyebrow.

"No, I may need your help. To be precise, I need the help of the Ministry of Magic. After you control the Ministry of Magic." Lucius took out his trump card, "Scrimgeour is not easy to kill, then The guy has been very vigilant, but I can give you a little favor to help you complete the task of the Dark Lord as soon as possible, and then you will help me in turn."

Yaxley narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Lucius with something wrong.

He was indeed distressed about **** Scrimgeour. As the former director of the Auror office, Scrimgeour was extremely cautious, as if he knew that someone was going to kill him, and it was not easy to create opportunities for the Dark Lord.

"Don't look at me like that, this is just cooperation." Lucius reminded, "Once I fail, this matter will fall to you sooner or later, and I think you probably won't want to be on that Mudblood either." Waste your time"

"Oh, tell me..."

Lucius briefly told Yaxley about the internal problems of the Ministry of Magic. He had worked as a consultant with Fudge for a while, and he knew the situation of the Ministry of Magic better than most Death Eaters. How to quietly influence and control the Ministry of Magic is actually the most suitable job for him to do.

"By the way, there is one more thing. I hope you can help me find Narcissa's whereabouts by the way. I am willing to pay a satisfactory enough reward for this." Lucius expressed his attitude Lower and lower.

"Oh, of course, it's just a little favor, but I can't guarantee whether I can find someone." Yaxley was quite satisfied with Lucius' knowledge.

After getting Yaxley's promise, Lucius couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. Only with the help of the Dark Lord's right and left hands, the next situation would not be too bad.

As for the Malfoy family's glory no longer, that's something that can't be helped.

For the clever and cunning Lucius Malfoy, what to do now is not a difficult choice.

As long as people are still alive and have enough wealth and contacts, the Malfoy family will soon be able to regain their former glory.

And the biggest problem now is that Draco became a Death Eater and was also involved in this storm.

To be honest, even if Dumbledore is dead, Lucius still doesn't have much confidence in the Dark Lord.

Because Albert Anderson is still alive, that guy has now become Lucius' nightmare, and he knows too well how dangerous that guy is.

Lucius even suspected that the Dark Lord was not his match.

If the Dark Lord fails.

According to what he plans to do next, the situation may not be good.

As for Draco, although he thought that Draco should be fine, but...

Lucius felt he had to do something, and he was going to talk to Draco, hoping he had a girlfriend.

Albert Anderson got married right after graduation, and now that a child is about to be born, Draco can naturally have one too.

At least, leave a descendant for the Malfoy family first, so as to ensure that the blood of the Malfoy family will not be cut off.

It's not that Lucius Malfoy is so pessimistic, but since Narcissa disappeared, he has always had a bad feeling.

Draco was soon flabbergasted by Lucius' thought.

"I remember you had a good relationship with the Parkinson family's daughter." Lucius said suddenly.

"We've broken up," Draco said dryly. He doesn't actually know if they broke up, maybe he messed things up earlier, maybe he broke Pansy's heart ~IndoMTL.com~ The family situation is not good now. Lucius looked at his son and said calmly, "Maybe, we can get through the current predicament. It may be difficult, but... I think you need to do something about it." "

"So, you think I should get married as soon as possible now? Don't you think this sounds absurd?" Draco couldn't help raising his voice and said, "Mom's whereabouts are still unknown."

"This is your responsibility, as Malfoy's responsibility." Lucius looked at his son and said seriously, "You have been together for six years, this relationship is precious, at least you will not You will regret it, and we also need the Parkinson's family to provide your child with a stable environment for growth, which is very important if the situation is really at its worst."

Draco opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Is it really that bad?"

"I don't know, but I don't dare to gamble. Many Death Eaters have suffered revenge from Albert Anderson." Lucius heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that he had successfully persuaded Draco, " And we have a deep grudge with him, I don't think that guy will let us go easily."
