Chapter 330: “Operation Malfoy”

“That Mudblood went to find the Malfoy boy?” Umbridge looked at Fabian and said in disbelief.

It was a weird and uncomfortable room, with tablecloths covering everything and several vases of dried flowers, each on a separate cushion. On one wall hangs a decorative set of plates, each featuring a large, brightly colored cat.

The disgust in Fabian’s eyes flashed, and he put on a smile again, “Yes, ma’am, I saw Wallup and Malfoy come out of the same classroom one after another with my own eyes, and Wallup looked very guarded. He didn’t want to be seen by others.”

Umbridge walked back and forth in her office, frowning and saying, “How did Malfoy get mixed up with that mudblood?”

“Ma’am, this is obviously one of Wallop’s ways of fighting us,” said Fabian.

“How could a Mudblood order a Slytherin student?” said Umbridge.

“Please allow me to remind you,” Fabian straightened his collar, “on the surface, Wallup is a student of Hogwarts, but Grindelwald himself taught him.”

The name Grindelwald made Umbridge snort, “So what about Grindelwald? Isn’t he wanted by the Ministry of Magic of various countries and dare not show up?”

Fabian controlled his facial expression very well, “Ma’am, we plan to intensify the conflict between mudbloods and pure blood. Slytherin students are a very good sword. Wallup would not have thought of this one thing, but the kid he contacted must be trying to sabotage our plans.”

Umbridge wondered, “What can he do?”

“Given our advantages, there are not many things he can do, but there are other things,” Aiken said. “Please think about it. What is the biggest obstacle we will encounter in implementing our plan?”

Umbridge was not good at thinking. She held back for a while before she said, “The group of students who have no rules and do not obey the rules we made? But, as you said, Mudbloods and The purebloods are always like this, why should Wallup erase that conflict?”

“He can’t completely erase it, but the conflict can be halted.” Fabian explained.

“What should we do?” Umbridge gave up thinking completely.

Fabian smiled, “Please rest assured, madam, I’ll prepare the things later.”

“Very well, Fabian, leaving it to you is right. Go ahead, in this Hogwarts, you can act in my name.” Umbridge said directly.

“Thanks for your trust.”

After leaving the office, Fabian’s eyes flashed with disgust and disdain.

At this time, a small conflict was going to happen in the Slytherin common room.

“Crabbe, pay attention to your tone of voice to the senior.” Ottoman said grimly.

Because of Umbridge’s unfair treatment, Ottoman only needed to clean the bathroom in the Slytherin common room. The workload is very small, but it always needs to be cleaned.

Ottoman used the mop casually on the ground a few times and was ready to finish, but Crabbe came in with wet boots. This made Ottoman angry, and what made him even more angry was that under his own reprimand, he dared to talk back.

Crabbe snorted, laughed, and said bitterly, “Isn’t this what you should do? Can’t others come in after you clean up?”

Ottoman’s eyes immediately darkened, “Do you need me to teach you how to be polite, boy?”

The quarrel between the two attracted the attention of many people and they just stood there. This is probably the characteristic of a Slytherin student. If one of the two people who are arguing does not belong to the Slytherin, they will immediately form a group to help their own mates.

But if both of them belong to the Slytherin, then they’ll just watch and see who’s stronger.

Ottoman turned his head and saw Draco. He was widely known since he sponsored the Slytherin Quidditch team with a Nimbus 2001 for each member last year. Knowing that Crabbe was Draco’s group member, Ottoman had no choice but to turn around and leave.

But Draco held him back.

“Hey, Ottoman.”

He turned his head and forced a smile.

The next day, when he got up, he found that his hair had been turned green by a magic hair dye at some point.

“Who did it?!”

The Slytherin students who came around showed mocking smiles. Ottoman stared at them and found that Crabbe, who had been following Draco, did not show up.

After a while, Crabbe dozed off and came out. He saw Ottoman and gave him another look. Ottoman really wanted to go and question him directly, but Crabbe was with Draco.

He took a deep breath and suppressed his anger abruptly.

Osman thought that if he could find evidence that he did this, then he would be able to confront him since life at Hogwarts still went on under Umbridge’s management.

After class in the afternoon, Draco found Sean again.

“I did it according to the method you gave, and now Ottoman has begun to suspect Crabbe.”

Sean snapped his fingers, “Very well, Draco. Remember, as long as Ottoman has no evidence of it, you still have to speak for Crabbe. But you have to show your distrust toward Ottoman. Of course, you can only do so in person.”

Draco nodded and asked, “Then what am I going to do later?”

Sean smiled, “Use your power.”

“Power?”

“Tell a story.”

“Huh?” Draco looked confused.

In a low voice, Sean leaned over and said, “You need to build up your reputation. Later, some stories containing secrets that ordinary people cannot know can increase your sense of mystery and your reputation. Come here and tell you a little secret.”

Draco leaned over curiously. His eyes widened after a moment. His expression kept changing. Occasionally, he was surprised and excited, as if he had heard many big secrets.

After a while, Sean patted him on the shoulder, “First, use these stories to attract people’s attention. When the time is right, I will give you some more. You can get a little by creating your own team later. Think, about it, how powerful your team must if everyone came from the Slytherin house?”

Draco was shocked as if he had seen a wonderful future.

That night, Draco was surrounded by everyone in the Slytherin common room.

He just told a story about encountering a dangerous magical animal called the Wampus Cat in the Appalachian Mountains. At the end of the story, he awakened himself from being hypnotized by the Wampus Cat with a pre-arranged spell and narrowly escaped.

Some people didn’t quite believe it, “Draco, are you telling me that the Wampus Cat, an animal that can only be dealt with by dozens of adult wizards and based on what Professor Scamander said that Wampus Cats are very rare now, you met them once when you’re traveling around the world?”

Draco looked at him, “Believe it or not, at least I have seen that creature with my own eyes. This is an experience that I can remember all my life, but you will never experience it.”

Another student chimed in and said, “My hometown is in North America, and the scene Draco described is indeed like the Appalachian Mountains.”

This student is indeed not a native of England. With what he said, the scene described by Draco is more believable. Seeing more and more people around, Draco decided to release Sean’s biggest weapon.

“Alright then if you’re not that interested with the Wampus Cat. I also know about Salazar Slytherin’s Chamber of Secrets.”

“Come on, Draco, the Chamber of Secrets has long been sealed by Dumbledore, and no one has ever seen the Chamber of Secrets except him.” Someone retorted immediately.

Draco didn’t even look at the student. He snorted coldly, “Do you think the Malfoy family didn’t know it despite us being one of the most powerful families?”

The students looked at each other blankly. Draco’s words were true. His family has indeed a powerful influence in the wizarding world.

“Then last year when the basilisk came out of from the chamber, why didn’t you report the chamber’s location to the professors?” someone asked.

“Idiot, Salazar Slytherin put the basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets, and he has his own reasons for it. How could I interfere with his plans?”
