Chapter 266 Chapter 260
In order to pass the Dark Lord's test, and what happened in the morning, Hetty never relaxed. After all, she didn't want to be monitored. She had no personal freedom in the first place, and this incident would drive her crazy.
More importantly, since he said it, he will definitely do it. So, the best way is to be obedient.
But Hetty thought he would come back on time like noon, but she still couldn't wait for him.
There was a lot of food on the table, and the aroma was fragrant, but Hetty couldn't work up her appetite. Instead of holding a knife and fork, she clutched the double-sided mirror and looked at it.
The restaurant was eerily quiet. Hetty, who was sitting next to the main seat, remained motionless as if she was under a petrification spell. She just stared silently at the motionless mirror. After a few more minutes, she finally recited a spell.
But this time it was different from what she had imagined. His figure had not appeared on the smooth mirror for a long time, and her hanging heart sank again and again.
However, she stubbornly refused to put down the mirror and continued to stare at it without blinking, for fear that she would miss something or that he would appear next moment.
But the result dampened her expectations little by little, and she was still in a stalemate for a while. It wasn't until Jean reminded her that she put down the mirror, picked up the knife and fork and started eating.
Looking at the fresh and tender chicken breast that had been cut, she forked a piece but had no intention of eating it. She glanced at the double-sided mirror that was put aside, but there was still no sign of it, so she looked back and ate it in one bite.
Go down.
She kept stuffing food into her mouth, but she didn't know why. She obviously liked these foods and they tasted good, but it made her nose sore and her vision immediately became blurry.
She took a few deep breaths, held back the saline solution, and took a big sip of hot chocolate. The sweet taste seemed to dilute the loss in her heart.
After eating a few more hastily, Hetty tried calling him through the double-sided mirror again, but the result was still the same.
She optimistically thought that he might be in a hurry, or maybe he was too busy to pay attention to the double-sided mirror. But even so, he should tell her in advance, just like before, why didn't he have it today? Could it be that he forgot,
Or was he tripped by someone?
Merlin's stinky socks! The more Hetty thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became, and the angrier she became. After all, he was a Dark Lord, and he kept saying that he liked her, loved her, and so on. I'm afraid it was all a lie, otherwise why could he forget such a small thing!
She looked at the time and decided to wait. If she didn't come back by 8 o'clock, she would take action.
Hetty began to continue practicing the spells. Although her mind was always running to a certain Dark Lord who always liked to come home late, she still forced herself to calm down and kept silently saying: wait until he comes back to settle the accounts!
So, holding on to this motivation, Hetty was focused and very serious from 6:30 to 8:00 and practiced what he taught last week many times, and also practiced the summoning spell. The effect was much better than the last time.
.
This is probably the result of turning grief and anger into strength, but didn't a certain demon king come back, and the damn double-sided mirror still didn't move at all!
Hetty didn't do anything else and left the mansion with only a wand. She walked quickly along the main road and soon arrived at the exit gate.
But the barrier he had set up with his own hands was still in good condition. She raised her hand and touched something invisible when she reached out. Without him breaking the restriction, she would not be able to get out at all.
Hetty turned back and glanced at the brightly lit mansion in the distance. After hesitating for a moment, he took out his wand and cast all the spells one by one.
The lights of various colors are conspicuous and beautiful in the dark, but what they have in common is that they all disappear completely after hitting the transparent barrier, leaving no trace behind.
Until the last one was finished, her movements still attracted the attention of the elf. When she wanted to curse in annoyance, Jean had already appeared behind her and ran to her anxiously to stop her.
"Miss! Miss can't go out! Your Majesty has an order. Miss must stay in the manor. Please don't try it again! Jean is willing to practice magic spells with Miss! Please Miss, please go back to the mansion! Master will definitely punish Jean.
Gene is useless! Gene deserves to die!" The more Gene spoke, the more excited he became, and he almost knelt down and hugged her legs while abusing himself at the same time.
Although Hetty was most afraid that the elf would go crazy like this, she became even more angry when she thought of a certain demon king who would be gone if he didn't come back and didn't even have a letter. Regardless of Jean's earnest advice, she raised the level a few decibels.
The volume said, "Quiet! Jean! I know that you elves can definitely pass through this barrier. I now order you to take me to the Ministry of Magic. I want to find him!"
Jean immediately stopped howling and seemed to be back to normal, but he rubbed his hands in confusion, "But the Lord said that the lady cannot be allowed to leave the manor."
Seeing that there was something going on, Hetty quickly continued to strike while the iron was hot, "I don't want to leave here, but what time is it now! He hasn't come back yet! And the double-sided mirror can't contact you. Do you want me to worry to death? Gene, listen.
I'm right, take me to the Ministry of Magic and I promise he will never punish you! I won't run away either, you can follow me the whole time."
Jean obviously began to hesitate, but after only a few seconds, he still shook his head, "Jean dare not disobey Your Majesty's order. Your Majesty must be doing it for the good of the lady. Please wait for the Lord to come back at the mansion."
Hetty resisted the urge to curse and took a deep breath, but as soon as she saw this brainless elf, she became angry. She quickly waved her wand and cast a sound-amplifying spell on herself, then turned to face the entire courtyard and shouted, "
Nagini! Nagini! Come here! I want to play with you!"
Not long after, a small snake a few inches long twisted its body in front of Hetty, kept spitting messages, swam to her feet and started to crawl up her legs.
Hetty had goosebumps all over her body, but luckily the night covered her pale face. She lifted the spell and took a step back, "It's no fun to play like this. Nagini can go back to her original size. I
Not afraid of you."
Nagini was very obedient. In the blink of an eye, the giant snake grew back to a length of more than ten feet and was almost thicker than her two thighs put together. She almost turned around and ran away.
Hetty's hand holding the wand couldn't help but tremble. She swallowed, "Nagini, I believe you must be bored in the courtyard for so many days. How about we go out to play together while Tom is away? But there is
I can't open the transparent barrier, why don't you try it, and if you succeed, I'll take you outside to play!"
Nagini kept screaming "hiss", twisting her huge body from time to time, and then swam towards the door, but at this time Jean stopped her again.
Gene was obviously a little scared of the giant snake in front of him, but it still explained, "Miss Nagini, I have an order not to take the lady out!"
Although Hetty felt terrified, she quickly started to instigate, "Ignore it, Nagini, let's go out together! If you don't believe me, ask Tom. I'll take you out to find him!"
Sure enough, Nagini was a very easy snake to fool. Even though she kept "hissing" and "hissing", she couldn't understand it. But didn't a certain demon king say that this snake wanted to play with her, so that was just right.
.
Although Jean tried his best to stop it, it didn't dare to use any spells on Nagini. It was obvious that Nagini ignored it and just kept hitting the barrier.
Hetty, who was watching, felt pain when he saw the intensity of the force, but maybe it was because the snake had rough skin and thick flesh. It was happy to hit it over and over again, but the result was obvious. The barrier was firm and did not loosen at all.
Seeing that the elf was too anxious to do anything, Hetty took the opportunity to snort in displeasure, "Jean, I'm not talking about you, Tom at least said that I am from this family too."
Mistress, and you, how do you do a house elf? Ignore my orders and don't let me go to him. If I were Tom, I would be the first to give you a piece of clothing and let you go!"
This seemed to hit the point that most elves were most afraid of. Gene immediately knelt down in front of Hetty with a "plop" and begged, "Miss! Miss, please don't drive Gene away! Gene likes to serve adults and ladies.
And Miss Nagini! I’m sorry, miss, it’s all because Jean is too stupid! Please forgive Jean! Jean is willing to take you to find an adult!”
Hetty howled a few more times to get Nagini to stop her terrifying behavior at night, but when she saw that she was about to leave, the snake immediately twisted its body and came closer, as if to remind her not to forget about herself.
Now that she had achieved her goal, Hetty wanted to throw the snake aside first. This inexplicably disgusting scene made her stomach churn, and she was most afraid of such a long animal, so she might as well take it with her.
Give her the pleasure of an Avada.
At this time, Gene was very ignorant of her face and said, "Miss, please don't worry, Jean can make Miss Nagini smaller. Miss, you can take Miss Nagini with you to find an adult."
Heidi glared at her. She turned her head and looked at the door and then at the snake. Finally, she nodded with a grimace but added, "You will take Nagini with you."
"Yes, miss!" Jean bowed and quickly shrunk Nagini, then respectfully picked up the little snake and put it on his shoulders.
Hetty didn't know what kind of magic spell Jean had used on herself, maybe it was exclusive to elves, and then he let himself catch it. Then, the man, the elf, and the snake passed through the barrier and left the manor.
Hetty looked at the night outside and almost died of excitement. Merlin! She finally came out with Voldemort on her back! Although her first reaction was to run away, this elf was obviously more loyal to the Dark Lord, so there was no doubt that she would dare to do this.
She's causing trouble for herself, mainly because she doesn't know how to apparate.
So, under the leadership of Jean, they arrived in another dark alley from outside the manor in the blink of an eye, but when they looked out, they could see the conspicuous red phone booth under the streetlight.
After Gene reminded him, Hetty instantly remembered that in the original book, Mr. Potter and Mr. Weasley had entered the Ministry of Magic through this phone box.
Hetty peeked her head out and looked left and right to make sure no one was there. Then she hurried to the phone booth and opened the door. She picked up the phone and dialed "62442" according to Gene's instructions.
After clarifying the purpose of his visit, at the prompt of the operator, an issued pass fell out of the coin slot. At the same time, the phone booth began to descend instantly, and Akira Kamima reached the main hall on the eighth floor from the ground.
This is undoubtedly Hetty's first visit to the Ministry of Magic. Although the operator said that the eighth floor is for visitors and employees, the area is not small, very luxurious, and there are many people.
There is a statue in the center of this long and splendid hall. The ground is a polished dark wooden floor. The peacock blue ceiling is inlaid with sparkling golden symbols, which are constantly moving and changing, like a
A huge high-altitude bulletin board with many gilded fireplaces embedded in the walls on both sides.
Hetty was dazzled by what she saw, especially the fountain that had a super nice aroma. She stood by the fountain and didn't want to leave, but under Jean's reminder and urging, she still had to go to the security checkpoint at the end of the hall.
.
But before she had even taken two steps, a familiar voice sounded from the crowd on the right, calling her a made-up name.
Hetty looked up and saw Miss Fudge, who was very eye-catching even in the crowd, and her whole body suddenly turned bad.
"Miss Elaine? Why are you here? I'm really surprised." Although Fudge said this, there was no hint of surprise in his expression. On the contrary, his elegant smile was very well controlled.
Although Hetty didn't like the eldest lady in front of her very much, she had to give a forced smile and said, "Hello, Miss Fudge, it's just that Tom hasn't come home yet. I was worried and wanted to see him."
Fudge glanced at the elf and the inconspicuous little snake beside her calmly, immediately gave a friendlier smile, took out something from his robe pocket and said, "No wonder Winter's
The double-sided mirror had several reactions, and it turned out to be Miss Elaine's relationship."
At this moment, Hetty couldn't laugh anymore. She stared at the familiar double-sided mirror. She only felt that the other person's smile was extremely dazzling. The hands hanging by her sides clenched suddenly. She still asked the person she cared about most.
Question, "Why is this at Miss Fudge's?"
Not only did Fudge not give her the double-sided mirror, he put it back into his pocket, and then replied, "Winter has something urgent, but I'm sorry I can't tell you the details. This is an internal matter within the Ministry of Magic. This mirror seems a bit noisy.
He gave it to me for safekeeping temporarily."
Hetty suddenly felt like a joke. She silently took out her piece and looked down at it for a few seconds. She only replied, "So that's it. Since he is busy, I'd better not disturb him. I'll go first."
I'm leaving. Sorry to excuse you."
After that, Hetty stubbornly turned around and left without waiting for any reaction from the other party. Upon seeing this, Gene quickly followed but did not dare to say a word.
Without any nostalgia, Hetty almost ran away and returned to the ground. After coming out of the abandoned red phone booth, she squatted beside it and stared down at the double-sided mirror in her hand.
So just because he is the daughter of the Minister of Magic, is it worth pretending to be? In the original book, the main reason for the minister's downfall was to turn a blind eye to Voldemort's resurrection, but now that this is gone, how does he want to bring down the minister?
Without any hesitation, Hetty slammed the double-sided mirror to the ground and stepped on it a few more times. Although she wanted to apply a splitting spell or something, she realized that this was the Muggle world, so she gave up the idea.
Jean, who was waiting nearby, suddenly asked in a low voice, "Miss, shall we go back to the manor now?"
Chapter completed!
