The Periodic Table of Words and Spirits at Hogwarts

Chapter 217: when darkness enveloped

"By the way, I remember that Nia was a very quiet and lovely child when she was a child. Why did she take Draco when we went there that day"...

When the train started, Narcissa, who was standing on the platform, asked her husband with some doubts.

"Astoria? This child has been with Hekmedia-senpai for several months, and she may have been infected by her."

Lucius said with a bitter face.

"Ah, senpai was good at everything back then, but her personality didn't look like a Slytherin at all, no, to be precise, she didn't look like a girl."

Narcissa also sighed with regret. Unlike Lucius who just wanted to embezzle the Greengrass family's property, Narcissa always thought this little girl was pretty good.

Although she was in poor health, Narcissa's intuition told herself that this was the right choice.

However, regarding the dissolution of the engagement, the Malfoys just felt very regretful, and did not hold any resentment towards Hekmedia.

Hekmedia saved them several times in that chaotic era. Although the Malfoy family pursued their own interests, they never failed to live up to the life-saving grace of others.

So Lucius was very happy to dissolve the marriage contract, which was originally a political marriage. By the way, he also asked Daphne Greengrass family's recent economic situation, if they needed their help - free of charge.

However, the Greenglass family is not what it used to be.

The most profitable business in the world is arms, and the second most profitable business is energy.

The annual rent paid by the Muggle merchant who occupied the ancestral fief of the Greenglass family to open the Ice and Snow Park was a large sum of money, and at the suggestion of Hekmedia, all this money was invested in Luoluo, a subsidiary of the Qirol Company. Lang Petroleum Company.

Then, this investment, which is not too small for the oil business, is like a snowball, and the amount is almost blinding the eyes of Daphne, the head of the family.

In the same sentence, when you stand on the tuyere, even a pig can fly.

Although Muggle currency is basically useless in the magical world, there is a bridge between the two called precious metals.

Due to the collision of atoms at the Big Bang, gold plays the role of currency in every corner of the world due to its precious reserves.

So the magic world also recognizes gold.

This money quickly injected a strong boost to the already fallen Greengrass family, and will provide more powerful strength for the future revival of this fallen pure-blood family.

But that's all for later...

"Ah, it looks like our journey this time is going to last a long time."

Astoria looked out towards the car. There were endless fields outside. The slender green grass swayed slightly in the September wind, as if to say hello to the timely train on the rails.

"Yeah, there should be two or three hours left, but it's about half an hour before we cross the tunnel."

Zhang Qi said softly.

"What happened when you crossed the tunnel? Could it be that you are still afraid of the dark"?

Astoria asked with a half-smile.

"I'm not afraid of the dark, but I hope you won't be afraid of the dark later."

Zhang Qi pointedly said something that others couldn't understand.

"You are really strange. You always say things that others don't understand, but feel your scalp tingling afterwards"...

Astoria pursed her lips and reopened the door of the box.

"We're sitting here, Draco, shouldn't you have any comments?"

Zhang Qi asked very kindly.

"Of course not."

Draco said quickly, then waved impatiently at his two followers.

Goyle and Crabbe looked at each other and walked out of the box to another one.

"By the way, Draco, are you afraid of the dark?"

Zhang Qi asked suddenly.

"Ah? As the young master of the Malfoy family, how can I be afraid of the dark"!

Draco was stunned for a moment, then patted his chest proudly.

"Still so arrogant"...

Astoria muttered in a low voice with some dissatisfaction.

"Do you know Draco, as a pure-blood nobleman, you must never agree to anything beyond your ability, otherwise you will not only be embarrassed, but also your proud family."

Zhang Qi suddenly lowered his face.

"Also, before you become the heir of the Malfoy family, you have to remember that you are yourself, and you should think about things from your own standpoint when things go wrong, instead of pretending to be the so-called family heir."

Draco looked at Zhang Qi in a stunned manner. He didn't quite understand why this classmate who was a year younger than him could say such a thing?

And why did he say these words?

"By the way, Astoria, this is your birthday present. I'll give it to you in advance."

When Zhang Qi finished saying these words, he turned to look at Astoria, and then took out an exquisite box from the pocket of his coat.

"Wow, thank you, can I take it apart now?"

Astoria asked in surprise.

"Well, Nia, why did you come here?"

At this moment, the door of the box was opened again, and the girl with blond hair and green eyes walked into the box.

"elder sister"!

Astoria jumped up and gave her sister a hug.

"Okay, Nia. You should be more reserved in front of outsiders... Mr. Hilbert, please help me put my suitcase on it."

Zhang Qi took the slightly heavy suitcase~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and then stood up and put it on the luggage rack.

"The birthday present has already been delivered so early"?

Daphne looked at the delicate box in surprise.

"There's no way, Astoria might use it later. I originally planned to send it on the night of her birthday."

Zhang Qi shook his head regretfully.

At this moment, Astoria had removed the lock on the box, opened the box, and took out a delicate knife from inside.

This is a large folding knife with an ancient shape. The slightly curved blade is full of intricate and beautiful patterns, which looks frantic and beautiful.

The handle of the knife is sterling silver inlaid with red gems, and it is also covered with very precise patterns, which should look like some alchemical matrices. There is also a silver metal corner on the corner of the handle, but no one except Zhang Qi knows that it is a platinum-iridium alloy.

"It's so beautiful"...

Astoria stared blankly at the jackknife and muttered to herself.

"I made the handle of this knife myself, but it's very difficult to make. Maybe you'll know its purpose after a while... Astoria, then"!

Zhang Qi looked at the tunnel that was getting closer and closer in the distance, tutted his mouth, then opened his suitcase, took out a black thing from it, and threw it to Astoria.

Thanks to the training she had experienced in Shenzhou before, Astoria hugged the thing in the air.

It was a pitch-black composite crossbow.

In the arrow slot where the crossbow was placed, at the tip of the matte-finished metal rod, the red shimmering arrow made everyone present shudder.
