Harry Potter’s Natural Villain Chapter 12: Candy shops and misunderstandings
Malfoy walked so fast that Hermione had to trot to keep up.
"How are we going?" Once she made up her mind, Hermione seemed to be more positive than Malfoy.
"Just follow me."
Hermione followed Malfoy around, entering the classroom for a while and leaving the classroom for a while. Soon, they came to the middle waist of the corridor on the fourth floor.
"It's you." Malfoy walked straight to a statue of a witch, who was hunched over and had only one eye.
"Separate left and right!" Malfoy tapped the stone witch with his magic wand.
The hunchback of the statue opened immediately, big enough for a thinner person to enter.
"How did you know that there is a mechanism here." Hermione asked curiously.
"Secret." Malfoy sold it off.
"If you don't say it, don't say it." Hermione was a little annoyed, but at the same time she seemed to have forgotten the unpleasantness before.
"Follow me, don't get lost, although it seems that you will not get lost if you enter from here"
After that, the two entered the hole opened by the witch.
The two slid for a long distance, like a rock slide. After some time, they felt that they were standing on the ground again.
"It's really cold here." Malfoy couldn't help but shudder.
"Fluorescence flashes!" This spell is naturally used in dark places.
"It's really like a rabbit tunnel here." Hermione looked at it for a while and came to this conclusion.
"Don't be distracted, look at your feet." Malfoy reminded.
The ground here is pitted and bumpy. If you don't pay attention, you will fall. In a short while, Hermione almost fell a few times. It was Malfoy who supported her in time.
The itinerary was a bit boring, but because two people weren’t lonely, they chatted with each other.
an hour passed quickly.
"I'm now wondering if you are trying to murder a wizard of Muggle descent." As the chat progressed, the two became more and more familiar. Hermione even made this joke. "Look how secret this is, I can't beat you again."
"This joke is not funny, but I also have a headache with my parents' ideas." Malfoy shrugged.
"Oh, we are coming." Malfoy felt the passage start to steepen.
Ten minutes later, the two came to a dilapidated stone ladder, which stretched out to a place they couldn't see.
The two began to climb the stairs again.
"Boom." They seemed to have reached the top, and Malfoy knocked on the trap door twice, then pushed it open.
"Attention, we have reached the cellar." Malfoy whispered to Hermione.
"Come up." Malfoy climbed up first, then reached out to Hermione, and pulled her up too.
The cellar is full of chairs and tables, and the floor is covered with a thick layer of ash, so that the trapdoor almost blends with the floor. If it weren't for seeing it with your own eyes, it's hard to imagine a door here.
"So how do we get out now?" Hermione asked. "I think we will be treated as thieves now."
"Then you don't have to worry about it." Malfoy walked directly to the stairs, ready to go out in an open manner.
"I think you are crazy." Hermione helped her forehead. She had anticipated that Slytherin and Gryffindor would be deducted twenty or even fifty points at the same time. "I'm just an accomplice, this guy should be buckling more." Just as Hermione was thinking about it. Suddenly there was an exclamation.
"Oh, little Draco, why are you here?" A woman's voice came.
"No wonder he knows this place so well." Hermione thought.
"Come out and relax on Halloween, Aunt Ambrose."
"It turned out to be little Malfoy. Thanks to your idea last time, we made a lot of money." A middle-aged man's voice came over.
"But you just stay in this shop, I remember you are in the first grade now, you will be deducted points if you are caught, right?" Ambrosio said, this man is the master of the Honey Duke. "People in other stores are not as easy to talk as we are."
"Of course, I ran out secretly this time, and there was an oil bottle beside me." Malfoy said.
"Let me see, oh, I brought my little girlfriend to play on Halloween. It's very romantic. We won't let you down here. I happened to have another batch of fresh goods today. Would you like to try it?" Anbu Luo Xiu let out a hearty laugh. Obviously saw Hermione behind Malfoy.
"I'm not his girlfriend!" Hermione emphasized word by word, with a light tone, but also firm.
"I understand, I understand, what is the popular name you young people call now, this name is too dirty, we can't keep up with the trend." Obviously the boss didn't listen to her explanation directly. On Halloween, the two came to Hogsmeade in violation of school regulations. It doesn't matter who is lying?
"Okay, stop talking, let us take a look around." Malfoy looked at Hermione's colder and colder face, and cut off the conversation with a decisive exit.
"Then you have to look at my new goods. These things are really unlucky. If you didn't make a big profit last time, you really couldn't buy them.". Ambrose said.
I said it was for a visit. In fact, Duke of Honey does not occupy much space. A glance is enough to make people have a panoramic view. However, the dense shelves of the store are filled with all kinds of candies enough to make people feel dizzy.
large chunks of buttery peanut candy, chunks of shimmering pink coconut sorbet, neatly arranged hundreds of various chocolates, a large bucket of multi-flavored beans, a bucket of savory bee candy, Luo Piao floating in the air sherbet drink, etc.
Along the other wall is a variety of "special effects" candies. Blowbo Super Bubble Gum (it can fill the room with blue bellflower-colored bubbles, which will not burst in a few days), bizarre fragments of hairy mint, small black pepper urchin ("For your friend Spit fire from the nose!"), ice mice ("hear your teeth fighting and squeaking!"), buttermints shaped like toads ("really beat in the stomach!"), Crispy sugar quill and explosive candy.
Hermione is almost dazzled by these candies. The candies in the world of Muggles don't look so strange.
"You won't be satisfied just by looking at your stomach." As he said, Ambrosio handed the sizzling bee candy to the two. "Taste it, it tastes good."
"Yes, but we haven't paid yet." Hermione said.
"Little Draco paid it a long time ago, didn't he?"
Hermione cast a questioning look at Malfoy.
"Go on, I'll talk to you later," Malfoy said.
"Okay, then." Hermione slowly reached out and took the candy.
The facts prove once again: Never underestimate the allure of candy for women. Even for humans, the sugar-loving nature has already been engraved into the genes.
"How is it, do you feel any better?" Malfoy asked after eliminating a stick of bee candy.
"Hmm..." Hermione nodded gently.
"How about, do you want to take some back to school?" Malfoy asked.
"I can't eat so much." Hermione curled her lips.
"Would you like to bring some for your two friends?"
"The two of them are not my friends!" Hermione suddenly became excited again when she mentioned this.
"Is the anger still? Let's make a bet. If you attend the Halloween party as usual today, they will definitely apologize to you."
"Really?" Hermione asked subconsciously.
"Look, you still can't bear these two friends."
Hermione's face froze. Muttered: "My words again."
In the end, the bet couldn't be settled, because Hermione seemed to have believed what Malfoy said: "Gryffindor's courage should include the brave admission of mistakes, such as your apology to me at the time."
"If you serve the candy again, they might just drop their jaws." Malfoy continued.
Hermione chuckled and laughed, seeming to think of the expressions Harry and Ron should have.
"Then I will believe you for the time being." She seemed to perceive something wrong, and she quickly returned to her normal expression. But the renewed radiant eyes still betrayed her now happy mood.
"Oh, it's late, I think we can get ready to go back." Malfoy looked out the window and said suddenly. The sun seems to be going down.
"What?" Hermione also looked out the window, suddenly panicking.
"Don't worry, I think we have enough time. Everyone is celebrating the holidays. I won't notice that a few people are missing." Malfoy said as he took it at the counter and in the wooden bucket placed on the ground. I put several candies in my hand and handed them to the boss.
"Would you like to get more of this flavor?" Malfoy said, pointing to the fluffy mint.
"Well, I think my parents would like it too." Hermione nodded subconsciously. "No, we should really go. We will all be deducted points if we are found out!" Hermione now seems to be back to the schoolgirl who keeps school rules and disciplines in mind.
"Is this a way of resolving the happy knot and not giving up?" Malfoy smiled.
"Alright, let's go." He took the candies packed by the boss and handed them to Hermione.
"I wish you a prosperous business, see you next time, boss." Malfoy said goodbye to the boss.
"Thank you for the hospitality today." Hermione did not forget to bow to the Ambrose and his wife.
"Be careful on the road! That road is not easy to walk!"
"Of course." Malfoy replied. Then he headed into the cellar, Hermione followed closely behind him.
After , I went back the same way.
"I didn't have time to ask you just now, why are you so familiar with that shopkeeper?" Hermione asked La Malfoy by pulling La Malfoy's sleeve in the darkness where she couldn't see her fingers.
"When I first came here to play, I gave him a few tips on doing business in the Muggle world. What is the name? By the way! Hunger marketing seems to make a lot of money, so I didn’t ask for it. You have the money."
"How old were you then?"
"Sometimes it is obvious that one's wisdom cannot be measured by age." Malfoy pointed to his head, although Hermione who was blinded by the black lamp might not be able to see it.
"Why didn't you guys go to Ravenclaw?" Hermione was obviously puzzled.
"Are you thinking that I am Ravenclaw, maybe we can get closer together?" Malfoy said suddenly frivolously.
"What are you talking about suddenly!" Hermione flushed, but she couldn't see it in the dark.
"Just kidding."
It's just a soft joke, but it touched Hermione's heart: "If only he was really Ravenclaw." Hermione patted her face lightly.
I have to say that the last encounter with this time made Hermione a big change in Malfoy~IndoMTL.com~ and even made her reflect on the mistakes they made the first time they met. Incidentally, he strengthened his determination to make Harry and Ron apologize to him.
"What am I thinking about!" Hermione tried to free herself from her imagination.
"Well, I think we are going back to school soon." I felt the terrain gradually calmed down. Malfoy said to Hermione.
walked for a while, and the two felt a glimmer of light in their eyes, and the one-eyed hunchback witch's exit was approaching.
Malfoy went out first, looked around a few times, and then let Hermione get through the door after making sure that there was no one.
"The party is about to begin. I guess Ron and Harry are looking for you to apologize, let’s go."
"Today, thank you so much for today." Hermione said softly.
"It's a small matter," Malfoy said.
"This is a solution to the troll incident." Malfoy let out a long sigh of relief looking at the back of Hermione turning away.
The next development should be the reconciliation of the three, and then Hermione's affection for herself has risen.
"It has disappeared for too long, and I should go back soon." Malfoy was thinking about going to the Slytherin lounge first, and then going to the dinner party.
When he turned and was about to lift his leg to move, he suddenly met a pair of cold eyes.
"It's very difficult now." Malfoy suddenly felt the slow malice that the world brought him.
