Wo Bu Geng Xin
After listening to Luke's words, Malfoy only felt that he seemed to be looked down upon.He still used the reason that he was not worthy of the honor of the Malfoy family to look down on himself.
It was something Malfoy couldn't stand.
"What are you... Gaunt?"
Malfoy called out his name in surprise when he saw Luke's face clearly.
Luke looked at Malfoy's look of wanting to get angry, but he seemed unable to express it, and a sarcasm curled up at the corner of his mouth: "If you shouted just now, I would give you a high look."
Malfoy wanted to get angry, but he also knew very well that this person in front of him was a target that his father had repeatedly told him to treat well before school started.
"Why do you say that?!"
He knew very well that at this time, it was impossible for him to use his noble blood to suppress others.Because Luke Gunter's bloodline is even nobler than his own.It is even more impossible to mock with money like mocking Ron.
It was even news for a long time that Luke Gaunt had inherited an astounding fortune, as the goblins preached.
Everyone is guessing how much money is in the treasure house of the Gaunt family.
Until one day, both the goblin and the newspaper office kept their mouths shut.Ordinary people only feel that one interesting thing is missing, but it doesn't matter, they can always find similar topics in their lives.
But the nobles and those in power at the Ministry of Magic are well aware of something else.
More importantly, Malfoy knew very well that his father had handed out an invitation card during this month, inviting him to his home for dinner, but he was finally prevaricated with reasons.
This caused Lucius Malfoy to never figure out what Luke was thinking.
So before leaving, he could only tell Draco not to provoke the head of the Gaunt family.It's not good manners.
But Malfoy didn't see Luke's response, but saw Luke shaking his head in disappointment: "It seems that you still don't understand what a real nobleman is."
After finishing speaking, he ignored Malfoy and chatted with Harry and Ron on the side.
The attitude is gentle, the tone is reserved and humorous.
A group of students who poked their heads out of their boxes to watch the show, seeing that they had no more fun at this time, returned to their seats with regret.Of course, there were still some who did not forget to give Malfoy a mocking or disappointed look before going back.
It was as if he had done something despicable.
Malfoy noticed the expressions and eyes of the people in this carriage.
This made Malfoy feel that he had been greatly wronged.
He obviously just did the same thing as usual, why did he get everyone's ridicule and contempt this time?Even this time he was the victim.
Goyle and Crabbe beside him stayed beside him dejectedly.Like two roosters losing a fight.
Malfoy seemed to go up to anger Luke, but because of his father's exhortation, and the just-right flame curse that was just right in the details, let him know that he can't go up impulsively, and if he can't beat him, he still has to fight, this kind of thing It doesn't match the education he has been receiving.
So he looked at his younger brothers with hatred, shook his head angrily, and returned to his box.
Luke watched him leave, and shook his head regretfully again.
Harry looked at Luke's reaction, and asked with some doubts, "Luke, why do you care so much about Malfoy? And it looks... very disappointed."
Ron did know a little bit, but his family was really not interested in these things, so his knowledge was limited.
"I'm just disappointed in Draco's strength. From him, I can see the shadow of his father."
Luke looked disappointed, but there was a trace of mockery in his eyes.
"Gentlemen, if you don't mind, I think we can sit down and talk."
Hermione could feel that someone was still watching them, so she said helplessly.
"Yes! Come on, let's sit down and talk!"
With that said, Harry walked towards his and Ron's box.
Hermione followed closely, ready to see what was going on inside.
Ron followed Hermione, looking thoughtful.
Luke looked at the back of the trio, smiled from the bottom of his heart, and then took a step forward.
Suddenly, he thought that he seemed to have forgotten something.
What about Booker?
He looked to his feet, but there was no sign of Booker.
He was a little flustered for a moment, he wouldn't come to help Neville find a toad, and then find his cat.Then when he went to see Luna this summer vacation, what should he explain? !
In the box, Booker was pressing the big fat mouse under his body, and his sharp and powerful claws had already pressed the mouse's body.He was ready to give the mouse a bite.
He just smelt food, so he slipped into the box, and then he found a lot of snacks, which made his eyes shine.Of course, it's not because those snacks are bright, but because on the top of the snack pile, there is a fat big mouse stuffing its head into a snack bag and eating like crazy. It seems that it doesn't notice that there is a smart, cute, The clever kitten named Booker has already watched its life.
Although he felt that this mouse was very strange, at least it was not like the one he had seen in the store before, or the one Miss Luna brought to the store for them to play with.But... a mouse should be able to eat it.Well, now that I have no shortage of food, I'll bite it to death and give it to Luke to make him happy too!
Thinking this way, just as he was about to speak, Booker heard a scream like a pig.
"Ah!!! Scabber!!!"
The smile froze at the corner of Luke's mouth.Well, now he knows where Booker is going...
He could only step forward quickly, caught up with Ron, and then hid the startled Booker in his arms before him.Then apologize to Ron.
"Well, sorry, Ron, it's my cat. Maybe he's a little hungry."
Luke didn't explain too much. While comforting Ron, he stared at the big mouse that was picked up by Ron and hugged him, with a strange look in his eyes.
He knew that the mouse was not a mouse.
But he still has to think about whether such a guy has enough value for him to use.Or to put it another way, what kind of request should I make when I have a little secret in my hands?
Luke apologized on his face, but he began to plan in his heart.
Because Ron hugged him too tightly, Scabbers, who was about to suffocate, or Peter Pettigrew, suddenly felt a chill in addition to suffocation.
It was something Malfoy couldn't stand.
"What are you... Gaunt?"
Malfoy called out his name in surprise when he saw Luke's face clearly.
