Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Chapter 372 The purpose of the adventure

Yaxley looked at Lucius proudly. He had been praised by Voldemort, but he had made the Dark Lord angry. Soon Voldemort would know who among them was more capable of becoming his right-hand man.

"Umbridge has gained some power at Hogwarts with the help of the Ministry of Magic. If she can replace Dumbledore as the headmaster of the school, I think she will not only fire a few teachers, but also ask her to get the boy out. It's not difficult." Yaxley looked up at Voldemort, and then continued tentatively, "But Umbridge's abilities are limited after all. If he can get the support of some students, he will be able to catch Deng faster. Bumbledore's handle, thus taking Dumbledore's place."

Everyone who attended the Christmas dinner understood at this moment that Yaxley wanted to propose his proposal at the Christmas dinner again. Everyone held their breath, waiting for Voldemort's reaction to this. But before everyone could wait for Voldemort to express his position, another person couldn't wait to speak.

"Master, I have a very suitable candidate!" Bellatrix looked at Voldemort eagerly. She had been waiting in Azkaban for more than ten years, and now she was eager to do something for this man.

"Oh? Really!" Voldemort seemed to have guessed who Bellatrix was talking about, and his eyes swept over Lucius without leaving any trace.

"My nephew Draco Malfoy, he is currently studying at Hogwarts, and he is also a prefect of Slytherin." Bellatrix said with great pride, and she also glanced at Lucius. , as if to show off to him that he had found a good job for Draco.

"Lucius's children are naturally excellent. It would be great if young Master Malfoy could help, but I'm afraid Miss Field will not be happy!" Yaxley said cautiously.

"Field?" Bellatrix was confused. She didn't know who Yaxley was talking about, Miss Field, but a person's face flashed through her mind. It was a person she never wanted to see again. People who arrive.

Yaxley smiled at her and said nothing. Voldemort was silent and everyone else could only look at each other and dare not say anything. Moreover, no one knew how to explain to Bellatrix the identity of Miss Field. , let’s say she is Ward Field’s daughter, but this does not explain why Voldemort values ​​her so much. Everyone seems to be waiting for Lucius to speak.

"It is Draco's honor to serve his master." Lucius said slowly.

"Are you sure?" Voldemort looked at Lucius.

"Very sure." Lucius replied affirmatively.

"Originally, I didn't want to involve the children in the action. After all, they are the future of the wizarding world, but..." Voldemort looked at Lucius again, "Since Lucius himself asked for it, then I There’s no reason to refuse! I’m looking forward to Draco’s performance.”

Sure enough, Yaxley calculated in his mind that if he guessed correctly, Voldemort would agree with his idea at Christmas time. It was only because the girl from the Field family objected that Voldemort rejected his proposal. But like this Yaxley was even more concerned about this girl's identity.

"Everyone, please stand down! I hope you won't let me down again this time." Voldemort suddenly stood up and turned his back to everyone.

After hearing this, everyone respectfully left the room one after another. Bellatrix was unwilling to leave like this, but she did not dare to disobey Voldemort's order. She looked back reluctantly and finally withdrew. After everyone left, a terrifying giant viper slowly crawled out from the dark corner of the room and approached Voldemort. A hissing snake voice sounded in the room.

"Yes... I feel it again, the same feeling I had before Christmas... prying eyes, fragmented fragments... it's Hogwarts!" Voldemort's slender and pale hand brushed over his head, " interesting……"

There was another snake whisper.

"Don't worry, maybe we can use this to do something!" Voldemort said slowly.

Outside Riddle's old house, Yaxley walked up to Lucius and said with a very proud expression, "I will ask the owl to send a letter to Umbridge later, and by the way, I will also follow She mentioned that Young Master Malfoy would be a trustworthy person, and I think you should also remind your son."

"You don't need to worry about it." Lucius smiled nonchalantly.

"Oh! You may have misunderstood me. I'm not worried about you and your son. I just don't want to mess up what the Dark Lord told me like you did." After saying this, Yaxley smiled proudly. , and then phantomed away.

"Who is the Miss Field that Yaxley mentioned before? Who is left in the Field family now?" Bellatrix walked to Lucius's side.

Lucius turned to look at the woman next to him and did not answer her. If it hadn't been for her, Yaxley would not have had the guts to mention Draco in front of Voldemort. He just took this opportunity to let Draco know It seems good to get some exercise. Sooner or later, he will have to face many problems. It is impossible for him to protect him forever.

"Why are you looking at me? Answer my question!" Bellatrix said impatiently in a commanding tone.

"Lucius...excuse me!" Avery, who looked pale, came over, "I want to say that I am grateful for everything you did tonight, and I will remember it."

"You don't have to worry about it." Although he said he didn't need to care about it, in fact, the reason why Lucius hadn't apparated away yet was because he was waiting for Avery to say this.

"It is said that people can only see clearly who their true friends are in times of crisis. Today I really realized it. Maybe you won't take it to heart, but I will definitely keep it in mind." After finishing speaking, Avery also Without staying much, the Phantom left Riddle's old house.

A smile of satisfaction appeared on the corner of Lucius's mouth. Today, his adventure has achieved the results he wanted. The reason why he took the risk to save Avery is because some of the mistakes he made before were his own fault. Deliberately deduced, more importantly, because I still need to use it in subsequent actions. After all, the failure of an action will always require someone to come out to deal with the consequences of the failure.

"Now that idiot has left, it's time for you to answer my question." In fact, Bellatrix had vaguely guessed the answer, but she still hoped that Lucius could tell her that things were not what she thought. That way.

Lucius still didn't answer. This time he apparated away without even looking at Bellatrix.

"you!"

Bellatrix was furious, but she didn't dare to make any noise here. She could only go back to Malfoy Manor to find trouble with Lucius.
