An owl swept across the night sky and flew towards a dilapidated wooden house by the lake. It seemed to be looking for something. It circled twice over the wooden house before leaning down and landing on the old wooden handrail in front of the wooden house.
There was a creak in the wooden house, the door was opened, and a small dark figure came out from it, and after reaching out to take the letter from under the owl's paw, the apparition disappeared.
The owl stared at the place where the black shadow disappeared, and cried out dissatisfiedly, stirring its wings into the air and disappearing into the night.
On the small island in the mist-shrouded lake, the house elf appeared out of thin air in the kitchen, holding the envelope in its hand, and walking towards the terrace on the second floor.
The owner of the house was talking to someone. The house elves didn't dare to step forward to disturb them. They just waited quietly, knocking on the door of the terrace after they had spoken, and then raised their feet into the terrace after receiving a response.
”Master, there is a letter.” The house elf respectfully handed the envelope up: ”Mr. Anderson sent it.”
”I see.” Mogg reached for the envelope and said to the house elf, ”Come here with a warm bottle of wine.”
The house elf nodded and left silently.
With the help of the bright candlestick on the table, Bud, who read the latest issue of the Daily Prophet, asked, ”What do you think Lucius Malfoy wants to do?”
He went on to say: ”Although everyone knows that his relationship with Arthur Weasley is terrible, I think they are not just targeting the Muggle Protection Act.”
”As we all know, the ”Muggle Protection Act” bill is purely half a joke. Even if it is published, it will have no practical effect.” Mogg closed the letter paper and said calmly, ”Probably because of the pure-blood rights dispute again! ”
Bud nodded, agreeing with Mogg's thoughts. The problem is that they might be forced to choose to stand in line in the end. This is why the two are discussing this matter here.
”Albert asked if we have any elixir stored here, or where we can get elixir, he needs some recently.” Mogg did not answer Bud's question, but handed the letter to the opposite person. Old man: ”Hertok Duggworth should have some reserves.”
”Albert is more familiar with Hertok than you, I think he sent us the letter just in case.” After reading the letter, Bud put the letter paper on the candlestick and burned it.
”He's in trouble?” Mogg frowned slightly and asked, ”What happened to Hogwarts School?”
”Slytherin's secret room seems to have been opened again. It is said that a student was petrified by an evil curse.” Bud thought about it and wanted to tell the latest news he had received. ”Albus suppressed this forcibly. That's why it was not mentioned in the Daily Prophet, otherwise this matter might have caused panic in the magic world.”
”If this matter spreads out, Malfoy might ask Dumbledore to take the blame and resign.” Mogg is very clear about the virtues of the purebloods, and he even suspects that this matter may have something to do with them.
Isn't Slytherin the heir to Voldemort?
Although there is no evidence to directly prove this point, when Voldemort gathered the pure-blood faction, someone claimed that the Dark Lord was a descendant of Slytherin.
It's just that the ancient family has been completely lonely, and it is unknown whether there are any descendants.
”What do you think is the monster in the secret room?”
”Probably it's a basilisk!” Bud said without hesitation: ”It fits the characteristics of Slytherin. Slytherin is a snakelike voice and can control a basilisk.”
”But, can the eyes of the basilisk make people petrify?” Mogg said his doubts.
”The power of the curse has probably been weakened by something!” Bud thought for a while and said, ”That's why there is no direct death, but only petrification.”
