Draco Malfoy mumbled a few words, but before Harry could hear what he said, there was no sound outside again.
Harry was a little anxious. He did not know what Malfoy was doing. Perhaps he was flirting in front of the mirror, casually tidying his platinum hair, or perhaps he had already discovered him. Thinking of this, Harry shrank back against the wall, hoping that he could shrink or become invisible.
He was hiding here now, weak, pitiful, and helpless. As long as Malfoy slightly leaned to the side, he would see him behind the mirror.
What if he was discovered?
Faced with Malfoy's family and a large number of Death Eaters that could appear at any time, what were the chances of Harry winning?
Needless to say, the chances of winning were zero.
If Harry was captured, then Elwyn, Sirius, and the rest of the Order of the Phoenix would not come to the Malfoy Manor to save Ron, but to save Harry! If they found him and immediately summoned Lord Voldemort, then …
Harry's imagination ran wild. He thought about his tragic experience in the hands of Lord Voldemort, and about the huge trouble he brought to Elwyn, Sirius, and the Order of the Phoenix because of his impulsiveness. But the worst did not happen. Malfoy did not seem to notice him hiding behind the mirror. On the other side, Lucius and Narcissa began to talk again.
"I'm too worried. The current situation is not what I initially thought … Bella is different from us. There is something in her character that has been like this since she was young. These things make her extremely fanatical and unreservedly support The Dark Lord, even if it means sacrificing her life. Instead, she considers it an honor," Narcissa said worriedly. Narcissa said worriedly. "This failure is a devastating blow to her. I think she's a little abnormal now!"
"After being imprisoned in Azkaban for so long, no one can be normal," Lucius said worriedly. Lucius resumed his lazy tone. "Cissy, don't tell me you still think she's reliable and trustworthy? Look at the suggestions she gave, look at the things she did after she came out, look at the trouble she brought to the Malfoy family … "
"Sigh, Azkaban made her abnormal. She's now a hopeless lunatic. All she can bring us is danger and trouble." "I'm just worried that we might be dragged into the abyss … Promise me, Lucius, if anything happens, we must ensure Draco's safety first."
"I promise." Malfoy quickly said, "But don't worry too much. The current situation is somewhat out of control, but Malfoy is different from those fanatical lunatics. We always have our own ideas. No matter how bad the situation is, as long as we are smart enough, everything will be fine."
There was another moment of silence. Harry heard nothing.
If one didn't consider their standpoints, the conversation outside was still a little touching.
Like other mothers, Narcissa was most worried about the safety of her son, Draco.
This reminded Harry of his mother, Lily. He originally thought that Death Eaters were very cold and heartless, and that these Dark Wizards were full of evil.
Now it seemed that was not the case.
These days, it was really … Even Death Eaters had it hard. Facing a lunatic leader and a group of lunatic supporters, no matter how much power, status, and money they had, what was the point?! This was the current situation. Even a Death Eater like Malfoy was beginning to feel afraid of what the Lord Voldemort had done …
"What is the Dark Lord doing here?" Draco Malfoy suddenly asked, his voice trembling. "His orders recently have been very strange. I heard …"
"Draco!" Narcissa hurriedly stopped Draco. She said in a panic, "It's better for us not to get involved in some things. The Dark Lord has a lot of ideas, and he hasn't told us everything. We shouldn't pry into the secrets that he doesn't want us to know."
"But it's already spread like wildfire. Many people are secretly talking about it." Draco didn't seem to hear the warning in his mother's words and continued to say, "I even heard that the Dark Lord is ordering people to collect corpses for him. There are many corpses, all kinds of creatures … Also, who is the witch who suddenly appeared next to the Dark Lord? What did the Dark Lord ask that witch to find? Many people were sent to that place. There was an accident last time, and many people died. "
"That place is a dangerous ancient magic ruin. In the records left behind by the Ministry of Magic, many people died during the initial excavation before the door was found. If that witch is leading that group of people to excavate there, then it's normal for people to die," Lucius said. "As for the corpses, if it's really as I guessed … the Dark Lord has completed his black magic, then the number of people who have died is nothing. More people will die. But your mother is right, Draco. This matter has nothing to do with us. We don't want to get involved."
There was a moment of silence outside, and Harry could hear the sound of Draco's breathing.
He seemed to be emotionally unstable because of excitement, nervousness, or fear. Even his breathing was trembling.
Although Harry couldn't see what Draco looked like now, he could still feel the change in his emotions.
Come to think of it, it was normal for Draco to be afraid.
Harry knew that the Lord Voldemort was collecting corpses and ordering people to dig the Door of Death. He had heard from Elwyn many times that the black magic that Lucius mentioned was the magic that the Lord Voldemort used to transform himself into an evil god. But from the conversation outside, it seemed that the Death Eaters were not very clear about the Lord Voldemort's plans.
They were just puzzled. After all, these things didn't look good.
"What are you going to do with that Weasley down there?" Draco asked again. "Use him to lure Harry Potter out?"
His voice was a little steadier. Hearing them mention Ron, Harry hurriedly pricked up his ears and focused.
"Oh, do you think Potter will come to save him?" Lucius asked.
"He will. That egomaniac who thinks of himself as a savior will definitely do so," Draco said in a tone full of disgust.
