Chapter 144 Malfoy
Chapter 144 Malfoy
Alice returned to her tent with a lot of books about meridians, but she didn't expect to meet the Malfoy family at the door of the tent.
"Hello, Professor Hall." It was Draco who spoke first. He first looked at the small virgin forest next to him in surprise, then looked at Alice calmly, and finally showed a natural expression.
Although she really wanted to correct the students' strange impression of herself, but because the parents of the students were also present, Alice could only squeeze out a smile: "Draco, what a coincidence."
"Miss Hall, it's a pleasure to meet you." The man standing next to Draco should be Lucius Malfoy, whom Alice has only heard of before.It has to be said that the genes are very strong, because Draco and his father are almost carved out of the same mold.
"Mr. Malfoy." Alice nodded, she could feel that Lucius Malfoy didn't really like her.But maybe it was his own teacher status or for Snape's sake?All in all he was polite to himself.
Mrs. Malfoy's attitude was a little better than her husband's. There was even a slight smile on the corner of her mouth: "Miss Hall, I've always wanted to see you."
"Hi, Mrs. Malfoy." Alice smiled back.
Well, it seemed their attitude was indeed for Snape's sake, she thought.Alice found that there was no smile in Mrs. Malfoy's eyes, and of course thankfully there was no contempt in her eyes either.
At least on this good day she wouldn't be fighting the Malfoys over blood.Alice relaxed, and then her eyes moved unconsciously to Mrs. Malfoy's hair.
Mrs. Malfoy's hair is slightly darker than that of the Malfoys.Reminiscing that Malfoy and the Weasley family are the same, it is said that the hair color has been the same throughout the generations, and one can't help but wonder whether hair color is one of the conditions for the Malfoy family to find a partner.
Alice subconsciously ignored the fact that many wizards, including herself, had blond hair, because she always felt that Malfoy's hair color carried some special meaning.
The sun was shining on the Malfoys' hair, giving them a very nice sheen.Alice would call them the Galleon's Gloss.
"Mr. Malfoy, I heard that the Malfoy family is one of the oldest families in the wizarding world," Alice said under Lucius Malfoy's surprised gaze, "The Malfoy family has invested in many industries in the wizarding world. I don't know Is Mr. Malfoy interested in my small business?"
……
"I thought you didn't like them." After the Malfoys left, Snape came out of the tent, "I didn't expect that in just a few minutes, you can call each other by your Christian names intimately."
"I remember you telling me that your relationship is okay." Alice shoved a large stack of books into Snape's arms, "But people got along with me for your sake, but you hid in the tent Can't get out."
Seeing the unfamiliar Chinese on the cover of the book, Snape was a little surprised at first, then waved his wand and stuffed the book into the tent.
"I think the knowledge of meridians in the East may be very helpful to my research on squibs." Alice explained, "This is also Gavin's suggestion to me."
Snape nodded, and answered Alice's last question: "Getting along with Lucius is too tiring."
Originally, he figured it out, after all, Alice and the Malfoy family might fight.But seeing that Alice and the Malfoy family had a good conversation, he was happy to relax and stayed in the tent for a while.
"Lucius is really thoughtful, or too tactful," Alice said to Snape as she walked towards the gymnasium when the time was almost up. Talk to this Muggle wizard."
Not only that, after Alice described his business plan to him, he changed his attitude in an instant.From the original mildness to enthusiasm, he not only praised Alice for her youthful promise, but also invested a large sum of Galleons for her subsequent research and career.
"Malfoy has always been like this," Snape said. "Before the fall of the Dark Lord, they were the right-hand men of the Dark Lord. After the fall of the Dark Lord, they became righteous wizards who supported the Ministry of Magic."
"That's really amazing." Alice said with emotion.
The shouts, laughter, and singing around became louder and louder. Alice quickened her pace and saw a huge stadium.
"Bost told me that five hundred Ministry of Magic employees have been busy for a whole year. This stadium can hold a million people." After queuing up, she introduced to Snape.
Snape seemed to have thought of something, and said firmly, "Your ticket went through the back door."
It was very appropriate at this time. The witch of the Ministry of Magic at the entrance looked at the tickets for the two of Alice and said, "Second-class tickets, go upstairs, under the box on the top floor."
"Keep your voice down," Alice hurriedly pulled Snape up the stairs, "You just need to know about this kind of thing, why speak so loudly?"
Originally, Buster wanted to give away first-class tickets, but she refused without hesitation after learning that there were only [-] first-class seats in total.
The twenty seats were reserved for high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Magic and the richest people without asking. Alice sat in the past without embarrassment, but told everyone that "we go through the back door".
So she settled for the next best thing, and she asked for two second-class tickets.
Snape was thoughtful: "It seems that Buster has a great influence in the Ministry of Magic."
Fudge had all but disappeared after losing his chance to run for Minister of Magic.For some unknown reason, Millicent Bagg announced the postponement of his retirement. Relying on his achievements in arresting Lockhart and Umbridge in recent years, he has stayed in the position of Minister of Magic for so many years.
The outside world was still confused about this, but now he knows it: "Millison Barger is buying time for Buster."
"You know, every family in the wizarding world is related, and Buster's family is rich." Alice found the second-class box and sat in the middle seat happily. save more money for old age.”
She doesn't like this kind of behavior, but she also knows that politics cannot do without it.
Snape stopped talking, just stared blankly at the billboard in front of him.Obviously, he still doesn't like this noisy environment very much.
"Ladies and gentlemen... Welcome! Welcome to the 422nd Quidditch World Cup Final!"
A thunderous sound resounded throughout the stadium, and the audience burst into cheers and applause.Thousands of flags were waved at the same time, accompanied by various national anthems, and the scene was very lively for a while.
"Okay," Alice leaned closer to Snape, covered her ears and said loudly, "I admit it's a bit noisy."
"Okay, without further ado, allow me to introduce... the mascot of the Bulgarian national team!"
Looking at the hundred veela sliding towards the arena, Alice couldn't help sitting up straight, her eyes flashed with amazement.Compared with appearance, she thinks Veela is more attractive because of its temperament, which is full of mystery like magic and attracts everyone's attention.
"Vela!" Listening to the passionate shouts of the men in the stadium, Alice turned her head when she noticed that someone was trying to jump directly from the stands into the field.
Snape was still expressionless, no, he still had expression.For example, now, he looked at Alice with a smile.
"Any questions?" he asked.
"Why don't you see any response to these?" Alice pointed to Harry Potter, who had one foot sticking out of the box above them, "The children can't stand the temptation."
In fact, as soon as they entered the box, the two noticed the savior directly above, but because they were afraid of trouble, they chose to ignore it together.
Now noticing the children's reactions, Alice couldn't help but joke.
Snape raised his eyebrows, and pointed to the angry witches in the box: "Why haven't I seen other witches look fascinated by Veela?"
"I appreciate it," Alice touched her nose awkwardly, "Although they are of the same sex, I also appreciate their beauty."
"I remember when you were in school, the chairwoman of the female student council was Caroline Dilcha?"
"Sev, your memory is really good," Alice blinked, "Senior Caroline is also working under Buster now."
Snape gave a meaningful smile: "Don't you think you pay a little too much attention to women sometimes?"
Alice froze.What does it mean?Are you saying you have homosexuality?
"Severus Snape!" She stood up inexplicably guilty, "You clearly know..."
"Okay," Snape interrupted Alice, pushing her back in her seat, "The veela is out."
The momentum was interrupted, and Alice had to turn her attention back to the arena.
As Snape said, the veela exited amidst people's anger.It's just that people are angry at different points.The wizards were angry that the veela was too short, and the witches were even more angry at their husband's reaction.
Alice felt that this World Cup would definitely affect the relationship of some couples.
"Hold your wands in the air...welcome the Mascot of the Irish national team!"
"Wow!" Looking at the gold coins falling from the sky, she clicked her tongue, "What an idea!"
This time it was Snape who was curious.
"I thought you were going to pick up these gold coins," he said.
Alice rolled her eyes, and casually took a gold coin that fell on the stands: "The gold coin produced by the Leprechaun is similar in appearance and feel to ordinary gold galleons, but it will disappear after a few hours."
"Not bad." Snape praised her.
Alice tossed the gold coin: "Although the difference is not that big, you can still see it if you look carefully. I, Alice Hall, will never be deceived by □□!"
--------------------
The author has something to say:
The little angel Bixuehan guessed the use of meridians in the previous chapter.
Writing a few chapters for a World Cup, I probably subconsciously delayed the development of the plot, maybe because the atmosphere of the original work has become heavy since the fourth grade?
The last and most important point: [Tsing Ming asked for a day off. 】Although I can't visit the grave because of the epidemic, I will still worship my ancestors at home.
