Harry followed Tom's gaze and saw a school girl who looked a little weird. She was weird not because she had messy, waist-length dirty blond hair, but mainly because of her obvious temperament.
There was a kind of crazy energy. For some reason, she stuck her wand behind her ears, and she also wore very weird jewelry: a necklace made of butterbeer corks and a strange-shaped earring.
It looks like two orange-red radishes.
Even in the wizarding world, this is a very unusual costume. But thinking about the "art people" he met in London, Luna's dress seems understandable. If people who are engaged in art don't wear some weird clothes, then it's okay
Is it called doing art?
Harry had not seen "The Quibbler", so he found a reasonable explanation for Luna's outfit.
It didn't matter whether she was artistic or not, what was important was that she knew how to run a newspaper. At this time, Harry was so motivated that he could not wait to print and publish the Hogwarts school newspaper the next day.
Luna noticed the gaze directed at her. She turned around and saw Tom and Harry looking at her. So she smiled at them, and Harry waved in response.
"It seems like you two can get along very happily." Tom patted Harry on the shoulder and gave him an encouraging look.
"Yes." Harry nodded with satisfaction. He was looking forward to the newspaper he was about to start more and more.
After lunch, while the students were leaving, Harry hurriedly ran to Luna. Then he realized that it would be a little too embarrassing for him to rashly strike up a conversation like this.
But it was too late, Luna heard his footsteps, she stopped and stared at Harry's face with curious eyes.
"What's the matter?" Luna's voice was a little erratic, like murmuring in a dream.
"Uh..." At this time, Harry didn't care so much anymore. Being chased away from the shelves, he could only bite the bullet and ask: "I heard that your family runs magazines, so do you know how to run a newspaper?
?”
"Of course." Luna would only talk to people on topics she was interested in, and "The Quibbler" founded by her father was one of the topics she was interested in.
"I often help my dad organize manuscripts at home, and sometimes help him print..." Speaking of these specific operations, Luna's tone became much firmer, as if she had woken up from a dream.
Hearing what Luna said, Harry was overjoyed: "Listen, I want to start a newspaper - the school newspaper of Hogwarts. You see, we don't have our own newspaper, do we?"
Judging from Luna's expression, she is more interested in the topic at hand.
At this time, an uninvited guest joined the discussion between the two.
"What are you talking about?"
Harry turned to look, and a big aquiline nose and two thick black eyebrows appeared in his sight. Harry was shocked: Why did Krum come over to talk to them? He was not familiar with him.
ah!
Then something even more surprising happened: Luna took over the conversation and started chatting with Klum.
"What a great idea." Krum praised Harry's idea: "Durmstrang doesn't have a school newspaper either... If it goes well here, we can also start one."...
Luna laughed happily: "The key is to find a suitable writer and a printing place——"
Harry, who had been a little nervous just now, suddenly felt confident. He felt that he was sure to persuade Dumbledore to give him a small room to use as the printing room for the school newspaper. However, there was still a problem with writers, and Harry felt that he
Not good at writing.
The somewhat strange combination of Harry, Luna, and Krum left the auditorium while talking together, without caring about the strange looks from others.
…
"Yordle, please wait!"
When Tom was walking on the stairs, he heard someone calling his name. He turned around and found that the person who called him this time was very special and somewhat unexpected.
It was Malfoy who stopped Tom. Today he got rid of his two followers and found a place with few people to stop Tom.
Seeing Malfoy's haggard appearance, Tom thought about it for a moment and understood his purpose.
"Can we find a secluded place to chat?"
"Okay." Tom agreed to Malfoy's request and led him into the nearby History of Magic classroom. It was the end of lunch, and no one would come here to interrupt their conversation.
Looking at Hermione who came in with them, Malfoy pursed his lips.
"Can you..."
"No." Tom interrupted Malfoy with a smile. Tom knew what he wanted to say before he finished speaking - he wanted to drive Hermione out.
"Either let her listen here, or we don't have to talk about it." The status of the Malfoys and his son was not even as good as Hermione's high-heeled shoes in Tom's eyes, so Tom's attitude was self-evident.
Malfoy was silent for a brief moment, and then showed a flexible moral bottom line and accepted Tom's conditions.
The three of them sat down together and listened to Malfoy explain his reasons for coming.
After listening to Malfoy's statement, Tom looked strange: "From what you said, it seems that your father really hung out with Death Eaters."
"We were forced - that person came to the door and couldn't tolerate our refusal." Malfoy looked aggrieved.
He didn't have a good impression of Voldemort. In his opinion, Voldemort was one of the culprits that destroyed his happy life. Before Voldemort was resurrected, Draco Malfoy undoubtedly lived a winner's life. He only needed to carry
The two younger brothers are domineering in the school, and they have endless pocket money, a father who supports him unconditionally, and a mother who loves him. Thanks to his father, Professor Snape, the dean of Slytherin, also takes good care of him.
Such days are happier than the Minister of Magic.
But after Voldemort came back, his quality of life plummeted. His family's manor was occupied and turned into the headquarters of the Death Eaters. His father inexplicably became someone else's servant, and he had to be humbled every day.
, living like a house elf, not even daring to speak loudly in his own home.
Draco Malfoy hated this kind of day.
"A lot of times, it's the deeds but the heart..." Tom's words made Malfoy's heart sink to the bottom.
Sure enough, he shouldn't have pinned his hopes on Yodel, Malfoy thought. He had hoped that Tom could help him set up a line with Dumbledore, convey his situation and intention to surrender, and thus save him from the Ministry of Magic.
Father.
But now it seems that Yoder only wants to humiliate himself.
Then there is only one answer!
"...But it's not impossible to handle special cases."
The next half of Tom's words rekindled hope for Malfoy, who was about to turn dark.
