Study Days at Hogwarts Chapter 1237

Chapter 1237 Praying Mantis Oriole

"Do you really not need me to go with you?"

Bella leaned on the door frame, looked sideways at Narcissa who had turned into Pansy after using the compound potion, and frowned slightly, obviously not trusting her sister's execution ability.

Narcissa's selfishness is too heavy, almost all her thoughts are on her family.

"No, you will be prone to bad things if you follow the past."

Nacissa tidied up her school uniform, reached out and picked up the birthday present on the table and stuffed it into a non-traceable stretch bag.

According to the information provided by Draco, today is Horace Slughorn's birthday, and Narcissa will approach him on the pretext of giving Slughorn a birthday gift, and by the way, request to buy the Felicia.

If Slughorn still refuses to sell Felicia after Narcissa has offered a high price, she will directly **** Felicia from the opponent.

Actually, Narcissa felt that the success rate of approaching Slughorn as a member of the Slug Club was higher, but their hair was hard to come by, and Draco could not control the other party's whereabouts.

Although the probability of the two meeting in the corridor is not high, they still need to avoid such embarrassing situations.

Bella grabbed Narcissa's hand, stuffed the only bottle of Felicia into her hand, stared straight into Narcissa's eyes and said, "You must succeed, we have no other chance, only Deng Only after Bullido is dead can Lucius return to you!"

"I know."

Narcissa took a sip of the amount and handed back the remaining Felicia to Bella. She only needed two or three hours of luck.

"how do you feel?"

Bella looked Narcissa up and down, and asked curiously. She had to make sure that Felicia was working.

"Very good, I feel that everything can be successful now. When we get a lot of Felicity Potion from Slughorn, it will definitely kill Dumbledore." Narcissa closed her eyes and felt the effect of the Felicity Potion. The changes he brought about made him more convinced that this thing would allow Draco to fix the disappearing cabinet and ensure his survival in the next operation.

"I have a hunch that as long as Draco uses Felicia Felicia, he will definitely be able to repair the Vanishing Cabinet tonight. I suggest you start gathering people to prepare, and then Draco will contact you through the double-sided mirror."

Bella was a little surprised by Narcissa's change. After reaching out to take the double-sided mirror, she nodded and said, "Very well, I will notify Alecto and ask her to take someone to the Bojin shop to cancel the locker. If things go well, we will We can sneak into Hogwarts tonight and kill Dumbledore."

"wait for my good news."

After leaving the double-sided mirror to Bella, Narcissa reached for the invisibility cloak resting on the chair, and directly Apparated to the Shrieking Shack in Hogsmeade.

The most direct way to sneak into Hogwarts is through secret passages. It is said that there are more than one secret passages in the school that can lead to the outside of the school. And what Narcissa plans to use is the one that Snape kindly provided: the secret path from the Screaming Shack to the Whomping Willow.

It may be related to the use of Felicia. Narcissa went all the way smoothly. It took almost no effort to find the secret passage that Snape mentioned in the Shrieking Shack. The entrance comes out.

She put on the invisibility cloak she had prepared in advance, and quietly walked through the gravel path to the front of Hogwarts Castle. Walk into the Hogwarts Castle as an identity.

There will be no students who pay special attention to Narcissa. Even if she encounters acquaintances by chance, she can easily deal with it. The Elixir of Felicity has made Narcissa an excellent actress. She came to Slughorn almost without hindrance In front of his potions office, he had an extra candied pineapple from the Honeydukes candy shop.

She took a deep breath, reached out and tapped three times on the wooden door.

"Who! This time."

Slughorn wore a green velvet dressing gown and a nightcap of the same color, and still looked bleary-eyed. When he rubbed his eyes and looked at Pan Xi, his expression was a bit astonished.

"Parkinson's?" he muttered. "What do you want from me? I usually get up late on Sundays."

Nacissa smiled and handed out her gift, and said quickly, "Happy birthday, Professor."

"Oh, thank you." Slughorn took his favorite candied pineapple and looked at Parkinson suspiciously. They didn't have much friendship directly.

"My father wants to do a business with you, to buy some rare potions from the professor, can I go in and talk about it?" Narcissa asked expectantly.

"Looking for me to buy potions?"

After hearing this, Slughorn's expression was a little stunned, but he would soon be relieved, and he even had some guesses in his heart.

"Felix Elixir is the miraculous potion you took out in the first class. My father hopes to buy some from the professor." Narcissa quickly spoke her mind under the urging of Felicia Elixir He didn't give Slughorn any time to react, "You probably don't know how much Felix Elixir is produced and sold. It is said that it is sold to hundreds of Galleons. My father hopes to buy some Just in case."

"Do you want to buy Felicia?"

Slughorn is not too surprised, he has also heard about Felicia.

"Yes, the Zabini and Belby families also want some. I think you should have heard of Mr. Damocles' misfortune. They think that using Felicia when necessary may save us from a disaster, In the words of my father: Garen is not as important as safety." Narcissa didn't even need to blink when she lied, "Perhaps, the price may not be as exaggerated as the outside world, but it will definitely satisfy you."

"Of course, if you help brew it, we are willing to pay a deposit in advance." Narcissa's series of Gallon offensives really made Slughorn dizzy.

"This... if you want, I can take a moment to cook it for you." Slughorn agreed. If they spent Gallon to buy Felix Felicia, he wouldn't mind being a smooth crowd, and he could get a lot of income, which was much higher than the salary Hogwarts gave.

"I think father will be very happy." Narcissa was quite satisfied with the current result, and took out the Garen she brought from her pocket and put it on the table: "Of course, you also know that it takes half a year to brew the Felicia. If you still have the remaining Felicity Elixir here, I hope you can sell some to us first, this part of Galleon is a deposit, and the rest will be paid after the goods are delivered."

"this…"

Slughorn stared at the Garen, knowing that what the other party said just now should be true. After all, even Garen was brought, and he was very sincere.

"Any questions, Professor?"

Slughorn's hesitation gave Narcissa a bad feeling.

"My reserve of Felix Elixir was sold out by Dumbledore not long ago. You know he is the headmaster..." Slughorn was quite helpless about this, feeling that he had sold out at the beginning.

"Sold out?" The expression on Narcissa's face suddenly collapsed.

"Don't worry, I'll write to find someone to help you purchase the ingredients for Felicia Felicia, and we should be able to start brewing it before the end of the month." Professor Slughorn comforted.

At this moment, the expression on Professor Slughorn's face suddenly froze, as if someone had cast a body-binding spell.

In fact, Slughorn was indeed cursed, and the person who cast the curse was Miss Pansy Parkinson in front of him. He couldn't understand why the other party did this. Could it be that Dumbledore had bought all the Felicians because he heard about it?

Yes... why?

After Slughorn said that he didn't have Felicia, Narcissa felt that Slughorn was lying, at least not telling the whole truth.

If you didn't get Felicia in this adventure, it would be a waste of time. Narcissa couldn't tolerate this kind of thing, so she decided to adopt plan B.

How to pry Slughorn's mouth open in a short time and get Felicia from him?

The solution given by Snape.

So, instead of using the Cruciatus Curse to torture Slughorn, Narcissa adopted a simpler method: Veritaserum.

Slughorn watched as Miss Pansy Parkinson pried open his mouth and poured three drops of Veritaserum into his mouth.

The next moment, Slughorn's consciousness began to blur, and a feeling of uncontrollable thinking emerged. He vaguely heard a voice asking: "Where did you hide the Felician?"

"In the wooden box in the right-hand drawer of the desk," Slughorn replied in a deadpan tone.

Narcissa was overjoyed and trotted over, only to find that the drawer was locked by a spell, and it couldn't be opened even with the unlocking spell.

"Where's the key to the drawer?" she asked angrily.

"In the right pocket of my cloak." Slughorn didn't hide it, and he couldn't hide it. At this moment, his eyes were dull, his mind was blank, and he could only answer the other party's questions reflexively.

When Narcissa found the key, opened the desk drawer, and took out the wooden box that Slughorn had mentioned, the expression on her face suddenly froze when she opened it face to face, because there was only the last small bottle of Fuling left in the wooden box. agent.

"Where are the rest of the Felicias?" Narcissa asked sharply.

"It has been sold to Dumbledore. He is the principal, and the bid is not low. I can't refuse." Slughorn said: "I keep this bottle for myself."

"Damn, damn!"

How could Narcissa not be angry? They spent so much time trying to get only one bottle of Felix Elixir, which meant that the next plan was ruined.

As for the bottle of Felicia in his hand, it is natural to leave it to Draco.

When Narcissa erased part of Slughorn's memory and was about to leave, there was a knock on the door.

Nacissa's complexion was very ugly. When she was about to approach the door and look for a chance to stun the comer, she suddenly had a bad feeling.

A hole was opened in the wooden door, and a stun spell flew directly towards Narcissa. Fortunately, the reminder of the blessing potion made her escape the surprise attack.

The wooden door opened suddenly, and Narcissa saw something flying towards her, and was hit by her spell and exploded directly.

It was a bottle of wine. When the wine was spilled on the ground, a figure suddenly appeared and attacked her fiercely.

Several spells were blocked by Narcissa, blowing a big hole in the cabinet and sofa next to it.

The two sides fell into a stalemate.

Narcissa knew she had to leave here, the sound of battle would definitely attract others.

Once she gets stuck here, she will be completely finished, and she must leave before others arrive.

However, Harry Potter was more difficult than she expected. This guy was like an elite Auror, and he easily blocked her attack. This made Narcissa feel bad. Fortunately, Narcissa had taken Felicia, Quickly thought of a way out.

She put on the invisibility cloak, used the Smoke Screen Charm to release a large amount of mist from the tip of the wand, and after the smoke obscured the sight of both parties, she quickly made a noise to attract the attention of the other party, and then left the potion office while the other party was distracted.

Before Narcissa walked too far, she felt that the smoke was blown away by a gust of wind. Fortunately, she was wearing an invisibility cloak, so Potter couldn't find her for a while.

She knew she had to go.

According to the route prepared in advance, she met Gore waiting here in a hidden secret passage.

"Pansy?"

Gol was taken aback by Narcissa who appeared out of nowhere.

"Give it to Draco secretly, this thing is very important and cannot be lost."

Narcissa gave Goyle the Felicity Potion she got from Slughorn as planned, and quickly reminded: "Give it to Draco as soon as possible, don't let others know about it, he will tell Your reason."

After handing over the Felician to Goyle, Narcissa plunged into the secret passage, and she had to leave before the commotion completely spread in the castle.

As for when to do it, I believe Draco will be able to make the most correct judgment after taking Felicia.

The process of leaving the school went smoothly without any hindrance. Everyone was attracted by the commotion just now.

Narcissa calmed down the Whomping Willow with a branch, lowered her head and got into the tunnel, and soon left the range of Hogwarts.

When Narcissa was about to come out of the tunnel, she was shocked to find someone standing outside the trapdoor.

"it's me."

Avery reached out and pulled Narcissa out of the trapdoor.

"Avery, why are you here."

"I set up dementors in the mountainous stronghold outside Hogwarts, and Bella asked me to pick you up." Avery looked at the trap door Narcissa came out of, and muttered softly, "I didn't expect there to be a trap here." Tunnel to Hogwarts."

Narcissa glanced at Avery secretly, always feeling that something was wrong, but heard Avery ask: "Have you got the Felix Elixir?"

"I got it, but not much," Narcissa said.

"It's okay for you to go back by yourself. I guess Bella must be very upset. I don't want to make trouble with that guy."

After the two walked out of the screaming shack, Avery immediately looked around and made sure there was no problem before turning back to Narcissa and saying, "I still have to stay and continue to deal with the dementors, and it's best not to delay the whole plan." Too long, and placating a dementor is no good job."

"Draco should be able to fix the disappearing cabinet in the near future," Narcissa forced a smile, and comforted her: "Tonight at the earliest."

"That's the best." Avery's tone seemed a little more cheerful, "Then I'll go first!"

"goodbye."

When Narcissa was about to apparate, she suddenly froze in place, and an inexplicable fear spread in her heart.

The next moment, Narcissa felt that Avery reached into her pocket, didn't seem to find anything, and used the Flying Charm, but no Felicity Felix flew out of Narcissa's pocket at all, maybe it didn't matter from the beginning of Felicity.

"Damn it, didn't you say you got the Felix Elixir?" Avery's voice sounded exasperated, "Where is the Felix Elixir you snatched? Where is the damned Felix Elixir?"

As he said that, Avery seemed to want to vent his inner anger, so he slapped Narcissa twice, and slapped her down on the ground. Seemingly still not relieved, he raised his foot and kicked her violently.

Avery stunned Narcissa, she couldn't understand what happened?

Could it be that Avery betrayed them, or that he was controlled by the Imperius Curse.

Only these two possibilities can explain Avery's current behavior.

Betrayal is a very distant word for any Death Eater, because betrayal means death.

Then there is only one possibility left, Avery is controlled by the Imperius Curse.

A kind of unspeakable fear completely engulfed Narcissa, and she could hardly imagine what the next assassination of Dumbledore would look like.

Thinking of her son Draco, Narcissa was completely desperate. She desperately wanted to break free from the spell and tell Draco to give up. Sleepiness came to my mind instantly.

Narcissa let the Stunning Charm fall down.

Looking at the unconscious Narcissa, Avery fell into a brief silence.

Then, he seemed to think of something, and took out a candy from his pocket. After opening the wrapping paper, there was a capsule the size of a thumbnail. Avery opened Narcissa's mouth, breaking the capsule and letting the liquid flow into her mouth.

The face that originally belonged to Pansy has changed again, becoming indescribably weird. This is the sequelae caused by using the compound medicine twice in a row. What's worse is that this sequelae is like Hermione who turned into a cat. restored by the passage of time.

"What should I do with you!" Avery muttered.

There are two solutions in his mind, wipe the woman's memory completely, throw her abroad and let her fend for herself, or use it as food for the dementors.

Avery didn't hesitate for long, and finally chose the latter, because it was simpler and there would be no trouble. After raising his wand to change Narcissa's attire, he apparated away with her.

In the mountains near Hogwarts, it is already spring, but the temperature here is still so cold that people can't help shivering.

There are objective numbers of dementors entrenched in this mountainous area.

Avery threw the man he was dragging to the Dementor, just like any other Dark wizard who asked the Dementor to catch his prey.

"Don't let the dementors eat too much, otherwise it will be difficult for us to make them follow orders and participate in the next operation." Avery said to the dark wizard beside him.

In order for the dementors to join the next action, the Death Eaters also paid a price. They would offer to provide some Muggles as rations and allow the dementors to **** the souls of these Muggles. Then turn the Muggles whose souls were sucked by the dementors into ghost corpses, and reuse the waste.
