Chapter 562: The Anxious Malfoy Family

"That's right! Yes, that's right – Miss Lily Evans, hmm...... That's what your mother looked like when she was young......"

"No, it's Lily Potter."

Harry didn't seem to agree with Slughorn's address to his mother.

"Oh, and then it's Lily Potter," the fat old man didn't dwell on the meaning of his last name, and he quickly brushed the little contradiction aside, "want to hear me tell me about your mother's past when she was a student?" ”

Truth be told, Harry really wanted to hear it, but he knew it wasn't right now. And instead of hearing it from Slughorn, he thought it would be better to ask Sirius and Lupin another day!

"Well, I think we can pick another timeβ€”" Harry quickly shook his head, "You know, breakfast is probably ready in the auditorium. ”

"Hah! I'm hungry when you say that! Slughorn raised an eyebrow and smiled, "In that case, dear Mr. Potter, why don't you just tell me what you're here for?" Or is it ...... Maybe we can talk again on the way to the auditorium? ”

Harry had come early in the morning, apparently with a purpose. Otherwise, judging from the attitude he showed a few times ago, it would be impossible to ask him to take the initiative to come here.

Under Slughorn's gaze, Harry looked a little cramped. I want to apply for a reduction in the amount of homework, but I can't say it.

It was a long time before he finally spoke.

"Professor Slughorn, here's the thingβ€”"

……

Speaking of which, during this time, both Harry and Maca had an easy time, so much so that they all had time to get busy with some mundane things.

But some people are relaxed, some people are urgent, and compared to them, Master Draco's every day still seems to be out of last year's winter.

Draco's mother has disappeared and has not been heard from since, and no one knows where she has gone. Even though Lucius had already mobilized all the connections at his disposal, he still hadn't found his wife.

Lacking interest in school, Draco eventually convinced his father to take a temporary leave of absence.

After the events of Voldemort's return, the Malfoy family not only suffered a great loss of vitality, but also lost most of the many family relationships in the past. At least more than half of these friendly families have fallen with Voldemort's defeat again. You know, the vast majority of the Death Eaters were members of pure-blood wizard families.

Now Lucius was stunned to find that he was not even a little short of enough to find his wife.

In order to find the clues as soon as possible, Draco volunteered to return home and joined the emergency search and rescue queue. Lucius couldn't help but secretly sigh that his son had really grown up...... But in the most poignant way.

This morning, although Lucius, who was dispatched from the middle, had been in the mansion and manor all the time, he was actually the most tired. Don't look at him sitting in a chair all the time, but both physically and mentally, he is exhausted to the limit.

When was the last time you went to bed? Day before yesterday? Or was it earlier?

Lucius flipped through the brief letters sent back by several search teams, as well as suspicious information from various sources. Among the seemingly many notes and sticky notes, there is not necessarily even one that is actually useful. But he can't give up, he must constantly rummage, compare, analyze, and then arrange a search and rescue team to go to investigate and inquire.

He felt his head swell and throb with pain, as if it was going to explode at any moment.

"Where's Draco?"

As if he had just remembered suddenly, he suddenly looked up at the window. It's already dawn, but my son, who set off with the team overnight last night, hasn't returned yet.

This can't be done, you can not rest, but that precious son can't not sleep! Although he reluctantly agreed to let Draco come home and join the search and rescue team, that didn't mean he didn't care, after all, the children were the future of their Malfoy family.

Suddenly, a fluttering sound of wings came from the living room in front of him, and soon an owl grabbed an envelope and walked through the living room and hallway, finding exactly where he was.

Is it another piece of news? Maybe it's the son who passed it on? Could it be that message I got last night was the right clue?

Lucius hurriedly reached for the letter, but his head was dizzy, and he almost fell directly on the messy table.

Fortunately, maybe it was just his body reminding him that he needed to rest, at least not to the limit.

He took the envelope that the owl had handed him in his talons with one hand, and habitually went to the drawer below him with the other to dig out the potions bottle.

"Oh, no......"

There seemed to be only empty bottles left in the drawer.

Lucius set the bottle aside, not thinking much about it, but without saying a word, he was about to tear open the envelope. However, he was about to tear it off, and a mark on the envelope immediately caught his eye.

"Hogwarts?" He paused, then rubbed his temples vigorously to ease the pain so that he could concentrate his mind a little more, "Is it about Draco?" ”

After a little steady, he opened the envelope and took out a folded piece of stationery from it. But when he opened it up and looked at it, he suddenly realized that he had guessed wrong.

The letter wasn't about his son, or even from Hogwarts. He was sure that the letter was mostly from the mysterious wizarding organization that Dumbledore had founded.

In the letter, a simple message was conveyed to him:

"Narcissa was seen in Berlin, Germany."

If you want to say what the Order of the Phoenix is best at, some people may say that it is the ability to deal with dark wizards, although this is true, but in fact, they are better at finding things and people. The Order of the Phoenix is home to a wide variety of members, all of whom come from different backgrounds and play different roles in the wizarding world.

Components like this make the Order of the Phoenix closely distributed to every corner of the wizarding world. With Maca and Kingsley in the big things and the likes of Monton Gates in the small things, there are almost no lines to miss.

For example, the case of Lucius's wife, Narcissa Malfoy, was heard by a German when some of Montungus's fox friends were talking about a business about the recycling of old broomsticks.

Of course, at first Montungus didn't care, but when he was chatting casually, he broke the news to Sirius.

The Malfoys knew about it, and it was impossible for them to do it quietly and quietly as they sent people to search. The news of Narcissa's disappearance has long been rumored among the families.

But when Sirius heard the news from Mundungus, his face stiffened a little.

After all, Narcissa Malfoy was also a member of the Black family before she got married, and she was also his cousin in terms of seniority. On weekdays, he dislikes these two cousins as much as he wants, one of them is a crazy woman, the other is arrogant, in short, they are not normal people.

But to say that Narcissa disappeared suddenly, this way of staying out of his sight was not acceptable to him.

What's more, Narcissa is always better than Bellatrix's cousin, at least she seems to be a "person" with some feelings overall.

But even so, Sirius didn't speak, and it was Lupin who quietly watched from the sidelines and finally decided to deliver the news to Lucius.

He and Sirius have been friends since childhood, and he can see more clearly than anyone else how the other party twists his heart. Since Sirius had a hard time speaking, Lupin would act as the "good old man" for him, regardless of his previous suspicions.

At this moment, Lucius was holding this letter paper, but he couldn't help but feel extremely heavy.

He had a very direct conflict with Dumbledore's organization, and he was secretly involved in the fight when Voldemort first rose to power. And this time, he was even forced to stand in opposition to the organization.

But now, in the face of Voldemort's defeat, Lucius Malfoy has not only been fished out of Azkaban by Maca, but now he has the latest clues about his wife Narcissa, who has been unfounded. To say that he is not ashamed in his heart is naturally impossible.

Although on many occasions he Lucius was forced by circumstances to make a choice, it is an indisputable fact that the cause of these things was that he had been trying to profit from them.

"Hogwarts ......"

He silently repeated the word, and actually tasted the feeling from it that he had not had before. I was also a student at this school at the beginning, but what was the power that made me the opposite of those guys?

"When you find Narcissa, should you find a way to get Draco and those Gryffindors together?"

Lucius was stunned by the thought of this, but he hurriedly got up with the letter and paced back and forth in the room.

Before he could figure it out, he had to find his wife. Otherwise, even if he let his son go back to Hogwarts again, how would the child have the heart to continue his education?

"Berlin, Germany...... Is it? Lucius was wandering, desperately searching for memories in his mind, "There should be a few families over there who have a history of friendship with my Malfoy family, I should ask them for help...... No, I think I should go to Germany myself......"

Thinking of this, he immediately used a phantom shifter and went to the owl hut in the manor instead.
