Yi Yang Shi Ming Yue
"He doesn't want to contact us for profit, so he directly opposes us? That's really his fault."
Eli elbowed Ron, motioning him to keep his mouth shut.
"He won't fight against you, trust him..." Seeing Astoria getting more and more excited, Hermione helped her to sit aside.
Eli watched the two of them leave, and he didn't doubt Astoria's words. Although Xi Shi was in the eye of the beholder, based on Astoria's understanding of Draco, she was right.
Eli had had such concerns before, he knew that Draco would face such a choice one day, and he had guessed it at the beginning of the semester.
Draco's temperament is very simple, and he wants to make his own decision, but he is too cowardly.
He wanted to maintain their friendship with Eli, but he was worried about his father's safety. After all, if Voldemort knew that his father had asked him to contact Eli and Harry in private, he would not spare his father.
Therefore, he chose to avoid Eli and the others from the very beginning.
As for him joining Umbridge's investigation team, well... Eli just wants to catch him and beat him up.
If you don't touch, don't touch, what the hell is going on with you directly surrendering to the enemy, have you really thought about backstabbing?
Eli had already secretly made up his mind that Draco would have to lie in the school infirmary for at least a few days and drink Snape's special potion.
"What now?" Harry spread his hands.
"Let's teach Malfoy a lesson first!" Ron shook his fist.
The twins nodded in agreement.
"That thing must be taught a lesson." Eli pressed his hand towards them, "But it also needs to find an opportunity. Now we can't act rashly, and we can't let Umbridge seize the opportunity to deal with us."
Ron touched Eli's arm, and said in a low voice, "Just tell me, are you going to deal with that pink toad when?"
Eli glanced at him, "Secret."
"Tsk..."
Without wasting any more time, they continued their magic training.
Almost everyone can use magic like the Stunning Spell quite well these days.
Why almost and not all?Rhyme because Neville was still trying to learn the Disarming Charm.
Eli also mentored him for a while, because his magic was always intermittent because of wand problems.
"Be firm, don't hesitate, you have to believe that you can complete this magic."
Neville was hunched over the target, looking nervous because those around him could even materialize Patronuses, while he was still stuck in the Disarming Charm.
"Expelliarmus!", the tip of Neville's wand exploded, and then some red sparks came out, and a puff of blue smoke drifted away, but there was no other response.
Neville scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Maybe I'm really not good at these..."
Eli took a deep breath, "No, I said it, your wand is affecting you, it has always been before, don't doubt your ability."
"Magic is a great thing. It can help us realize what we want. As long as you think about it and your will is strong enough, magic will happen."
Eli pointed at the target, "See that target? Imagine him as a dark wizard. If you can't disarm him, he will hurt you, and hurt people you care about."
Neville stared at the target, trying to imagine according to Eli's words, his face turned pale, and he looked even more nervous.
But Eli was even more pleasantly surprised, because he could feel Neville's magical fluctuations getting stronger.
He had sensed before that the magic power in Neville's body was huge, he could be called a genius, but Neville seemed to be suppressing his magic power all the time, all because he didn't believe that he could use magic at all.
So much so that apart from triggering a magic riot when he almost fell to his death as a child, he rarely actively released magic.
Act like a Squib.
"Disarm you!" A crooked red light hit the target, causing the wand in his hand to fall to the ground.
"You succeeded!" Eli patted Neville excitedly.
Neville looked at the fallen wand with a dazed expression, and he didn't react for a moment.
"Look, can't you do it? As long as you are determined enough, you can achieve it."
People around also gathered around to congratulate Neville.
Surrounded in the middle, Neville scratched his head in embarrassment, his face full of joy.
After practicing for a while, Eli stopped everyone.
"Everyone has been very serious and hard recently, but you must not relax in learning magic. I hope you can practice more during the Christmas holiday."
Everyone broke up happily, and when they left the Room of Requirement, it would be after Christmas when they came back.
When they went back, they happened to meet Draco in the corridor, who was patrolling like a city guard with two followers.
"Hey, hey, spread out quickly, you can't gather more than five people!" Gore shouted arrogantly pointing at them.
Draco looked over and looked away for a moment, but when he caught sight of the figure in the crowd, he looked over in disbelief again.
"No way, the group leader is coming to arrest us?"
"What should we do, will we be engraved on our hands?"
Fred and George had a wave of yin and yang, which made Draco's face flush.
"Look at him, it's amazing." Ron also said something.
You must know that although they quarreled a lot before, their relationship was not bad, and now Draco suddenly turned against them. In Ron's view, this was a betrayal of a friend.
Draco walked over quickly, and then stopped in front of several people, "Weasley, you..."
Draco gasped for breath, but couldn't speak.
He turned his eyes to Astoria again, "Don't you..."
Astoria couldn't help avoiding his gaze, but at the next moment, she seemed to be hardened and stared at Draco in a daze, "I walked with them, and if you want to punish us, you have to go with us." Let's punish together."
After saying such a sentence in a fit of anger, Astoria's mouth shrank slightly, as if she was about to cry in the next moment, but she still looked at Draco stubbornly.
Seeing Astoria like this, Draco felt as if a needle had been pricked in his heart.
"Don't be an example!", Draco gritted his teeth and dropped a sentence, then turned his head and walked away.
"Draco, they..." Goyle was a little unwilling.
"To shut up!"
The three of them just walked away.
Tears welled up in Astoria's eyes as soon as Draco was gone, with Hermione and Ginny standing beside her to comfort her.
"Let's go, I have to go first, don't get caught then."
Eli waved his hand and walked to the Slytherin lounge first.
The few people also gradually separated. Hermione and Ginny took Astoria away. Astoria was crying because of Draco, and it was really difficult for her just now.
Eli elbowed Ron, motioning him to keep his mouth shut.
"He won't fight against you, trust him..." Seeing Astoria getting more and more excited, Hermione helped her to sit aside.
