"Whew..."
Seeing Andy's figure enter the castle, Malfoy also breathed a long sigh of relief, and the heart that was originally held up was also put into the stomach.
After his heart was calmed down, Malfoy naturally calmed down.
Only at this moment did Malfoy react to what had just happened.
He, the sole heir of one of the Sacred Twenty-Eight Families, the Malfoy Family, Draco Malfoy, had been bullied at school.
On top of that, his father was still a Hogwarts school board governor.
Is there any logic in this? Was there any law left?
Malfoy's face was blue and white, today's incident not only made Malfoy's heart choke with anger, but it was also embarrassing to talk about it.
It was a waste of my family and a waste of my father.
Malfoy's heart was aggrieved.
There is probably no other rich N-generation acting like himself, in the past and the present, right?
Look at the Collins family.
During Christmas break, Malfoy made a special effort to learn about Andy's family.
Hundreds of years ago, the Collins family was a Muggle family until the family gave birth to a wizard, then they intermingled into the magic world.
After hundreds of years of development, the Collins family was not considered too powerful. Although there were some family connections, when put in the context of the entire magical world, they were only in the mid-range.
With this comparison, Malfoy felt even more ashamed of himself.
In his heart, he thought of writing a letter to tell his father, but when he thought of Andy's fanatical attitude towards magic, as well as his unrestrained behaviour, Malfoy was somewhat discouraged.
Malfoy dared to bully Harry and Ron, it was because they were honest.
Ignoring whether Harry Potter was the saviour or not, even if Malfoy bullied him, what could he do to Malfoy?
But it was different with Andy.
Malfoy felt that if he really dared to tell his father, Andy would definitely get back at him fiercely later on.
How did I end up with such a classmate?
Malfoy sighed!
At this moment, Malfoy could only comfort himself that the person bullying him was the future Dark Lord.
Being bullied by the Dark Lord, can that be called bullying?
If Andy really became the Dark Lord in the future, this matter would give him some honour when he said it out.
Once the mental construction was done, Malfoy immediately felt a lot more comfortable.
When he returned to the Great Hall, Malfoy had already regained his flamboyant dandy image, and there was even a bit of pride on his face.
"Draco, what did Collins call you out for?" Pansy Parkinson came over as soon as Malfoy sat down.
"Nothing," Malfoy answered back with a bit of a squirm.
Parkinson glanced in the direction of the Ravenclaw long table and saw that Andy was talking to Hermione and grunted softly, "Draco, you should cut down on your interaction with Collins from now on. Look at that, self-absorbed and hanging out with mudbloods."
Malfoy followed Parkinson's gaze and saw that Andy was getting together with Hermione, and it was unknown what the two were talking about.
"I ..."
Malfoy had wanted to say that he would never associate with Andy in the future.
But when he thought about the possibility of Andy becoming the Dark Lord in the future, he was a bit less sure of himself with that statement.
If Andy really tended to develop in the direction of the Dark Lord in the future, Malfoy wouldn't mind ...
Thinking of this, Malfoy felt a little aggravated again.
At the beginning of the school year, he was thinking of taking Andy under his command, forming two wings with Goyle and Crabbe, and dominating Hogwarts from then on.
But now, he actually thought that he could follow Andy in the future.
Malfoy's pale face reddened slightly, "Pansy, Collins and I are friends."
Parkinson gave Malfoy a surprised look but didn't say anything more.
***
Coincidentally, Hermione was imploring the same thing.
"Why did you go to Malfoy again?" Hermione looked a little upset, he isn't trying to screw Malfoy over again, is he?
He had been attacked twice!
Please, just be a human!
Be human, just change the target of your pranks for a change!
Although Hermione hated the Slytherins who hung on to the theory of bloodlines all day long, the little girl was naïve and kind, so she wouldn't intentionally screw people even if she didn't like them.
"I was just asking about his attack."
Andy explained, "Malfoy was kind of implicated by me after all, I had to be concerned when he was attacked."
Hermione nodded, it made sense, but... Hermione always felt that the very fact that Andy cared about someone else was weird.
He just didn't seem like someone who would care about others.
Hermione had known Andy for so long that she thought she knew a little bit about him.
Other than magic, at most, Andy cared about his family. Those classmates in his day-to-day life were nothing more than superficial acquaintances.
Even Ron, who was his good friend before enrolment, had a falling out with Andy, but Hermione didn't see Andy thinking of repairing the relationship.
It's just that Andy is good at talking, even if he doesn't try to maintain a good relationship with others, he is still pretty popular in his day-to-day activities.
But why would Andy care about Malfoy?
Because he was attacked?
In Hermione's opinion, Andy would never take this to heart.
"The Families like Malfoys always hung on to the theory of bloodlines, they're not on the same page as us."
Hermione said with some exaggeration, "I never thought that there would be such bad customs in the wizarding world."
"I wasn't thinking of hanging out with Malfoy, either."
Andy said as he ate, "This matter is considered a thing of the past, and what happens in the future has nothing to do with us."
Andy naturally would not think that that Malfoy boy was currently bent on thinking about early allegiance to the Dark Lord.
In Andy's opinion, after today's incident, he and Malfoy will be completely separated from each other.
***.
In the evening, a small banquet was held in the great hall.
In addition to the entire school's young wizards, all the professors and Headmaster Dumbledore were also present.
Well...except for a certain professor from the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
When Andy looked over at the professors' seats, all the other professors looked okay, except for Professor Snape, who looked so happy that he could barely even hide the smile at the corners of his lips.
Especially when he looked at Harry, he always gave off a feeling of 'let's get close as a family'.
After dinner, Dumbledore got up and gave a general summary of the attacks during this period of time.
When they heard that the person who attacked Malfoy and Professor Down was actually Quirrell, the entire great hall erupted.
Who would have thought that the stuttering Professor Quirrell back then would be a dark wizard?
Dumbledore didn't say that the attack was out of Quirrell's personal revenge, he briefly talked about the Philosopher's Stone and characterized Quirrell as a dark wizard who covets the Philosopher's Stone.
He also said that Quirrell was the one who had attacked the Gringotts during last year's summer break.
"Dark wizards are best at disguise and deception."
Dumbledore summarized, "The human heart is the most unpredictable, when you can't be sure of someone else's heart, make sure to protect your own heart and don't be deceived by someone else's appearance ..."
Malfoy looked at the old Headmaster, for the first time in his life he thought Dumbledore's words made so much sense.
Wasn't he also deceived by someone else's appearance?
