Chapter 1237 Mantis Oriole(1/2)

"Don't you really need me to go with you?"

Bella leaned on the door frame and looked sideways at Narcissa, who had used the compound potion to turn into Pansy. She frowned slightly, obviously not trusting her sister's execution ability.

Narcissa is too selfish, almost all her thoughts are on her family.

"No, if you follow the past it will make things worse."

Narcissa arranged her school uniform, reached for the birthday gift on the table and stuffed it into the seamless stretch bag.

According to the information provided by Draco, today is Horace Slughorn's birthday, and Narcissa will approach him on the pretext of giving him a birthday gift and make a request to purchase the elixir.

If Slughorn still refuses to sell the elixir after Narcissa offers a high price, she will directly steal the elixir from the other party.

In fact, Narcissa felt that approaching Slughorn by disguising herself as a member of the Slug Club would have a higher success rate, but their hair was hard to come by, and Draco couldn't control the other party's whereabouts.

Although the probability of the two meeting in the corridor is low, they still need to avoid such an embarrassing situation.

Bella reached out and grabbed Narcissa's hand, stuffed the only bottle of Felixir into her hand, stared directly into Narcissa's eyes and said, "You must succeed, we have no other chance, only Deng Xiaoping."

Only when Bledo dies can Lucius return to you!"

"I know."

Narcissa took a small amount and drank a small sip, then handed the remaining elixir back to Bella. She only needed two or three hours of luck.

"how do you feel?"

Bella looked Narcissa up and down and asked curiously. She had to make sure that the Felixir was effective first.

"Very good, I feel like everything can be successful now. When we get a large amount of Felixir from Slughorn, we will definitely be able to kill Dumbledore." Narcissa closed her eyes and felt the effect of Felixir.

The changes he had brought about made him more convinced that this thing could allow Draco to repair the disappearing cabinet and ensure that he would survive the next action.

"I have a hunch that as long as Draco uses the Felixir, he will definitely be able to repair the vanishing cabinet tonight. I suggest you start gathering people to make preparations. Draco will contact you through the double-sided mirror at that time."

Bella was a little surprised by Narcissa's change. After reaching out and taking the double-sided mirror, she nodded and said, "Very good. I will notify Alecto and ask her to take someone to pick up the cabinet from Borgin's store. If everything goes well, we will

We can sneak into Hogwarts and kill Dumbledore tonight."

"wait for my good news."

After Narcissa left the two-way mirror with Bella, she reached for the invisibility cloak placed on the chair and directly apparated to the Shrieking Shack in Hogsmeade.

The most direct way to quietly invade Hogwarts is through a secret passage. It is said that there is more than one secret passage in the school that can lead to the outside of the school. The one Narcissa plans to use is the one kindly provided by Snape: to the Shrieking Shack

The Secret Passage of the Whomping Willow.

Perhaps due to the use of Felixir, Narcissa had a smooth journey. It took almost no effort to find the secret passage Snape mentioned in the Shrieking Shack, and it took her some time to pass through the tunnel and successfully exit the Whomping Willow.

out of the entrance.

She put on the invisibility cloak she had prepared in advance and quietly walked through the gravel path to the front of Hogwarts Castle. In a deserted place, she took off the invisibility cloak and stuffed it back into the traceless stretch bag, and then directly identified herself as Pansy.

Enter Hogwarts Castle as an identity.

No students would pay special attention to Narcissa. Even if she met an acquaintance by chance, she could easily handle it. The Elixir of Fortune turned Narcissa into an excellent actress. She came to Slughorn with almost no obstacles.

In front of the potions office, I had an extra portion of pineapple preserves purchased from Honeydukes Candy Shop.

She took a deep breath, reached out and knocked on the wooden door three times.

"Who is it? At this time."

Slughorn was wearing a green velvet dressing gown and a nightcap of the same color. He still looked sleepy. When he rubbed his eyes and looked at Pansy, his expression was a little startled.

"Parkinson?" he muttered, "What do you want from me? I usually get up very late on Sundays."

Narcissa smiled and handed over her gift and said quickly: "Happy birthday, Professor."

"Oh, thank you." Slughorn took his favorite pineapple preserves and looked at Parkinson suspiciously. They didn't have much friendship.

"My father wants to do a business with you and buy some more precious potions from the professor. Can I go in and talk about it?" Narcissa asked expectantly.

"Looking to buy potions from me?"

After Slughorn heard this, his expression was a little stunned, but he would soon be relieved, and he had some speculations in his heart.

"The Elixir of Fortune is the magical potion you brought out in the first class. My father hopes to purchase some from the professor." Narcissa was prompted by the Elixir of Fortune to speak out her own medicine quickly.

The purpose of the visit did not leave any time for Slughorn to react, "You probably don't know how much Felixir is produced and sold now. It is said that it is sold for hundreds or thousands of galleons. My father hopes to buy some.

Just in case."

"Do you want to buy Felixir?"

Slughorn wasn't too surprised, he had also heard about the Felixir.

"Yes, the Shabini and Belby families also want some. I think you should have heard about the unfortunate experience of Mr. Damocles. They think that using Felixir when necessary may allow us to avoid a disaster.

In my father's words: Galleons are not as important as safety." Narcissa lied without blinking an eye, "Maybe the price may not be as exaggerated as the outside world, but it will definitely satisfy you."

"Of course, if you want to help cook it, we are willing to pay a deposit in advance." Narcissa's series of Galleons offensive really made Slughorn dizzy.

"This...if you want it, I can spend some time brewing it for you." Slughorn agreed. If they were spending Galleons to buy Felixir, he wouldn't mind being part of the crowd.

And you can also get a lot of income, which is much higher than the salary offered by Hogwarts.

"I think my father will be very happy." Narcissa was quite satisfied with the current result. She took out the galleons she brought from her pocket and placed it on the table: "Of course, you also know that it takes half a year to brew the elixir.

If you still have some leftover Felixir here, I hope you can sell some to us first. This part of Galleons is a deposit, and the rest will be given after the goods arrive."

"this……"

Slughorn stared at the Galleons, knowing that what the other party just said must be true. After all, he even brought Galleons, showing great sincerity.

"Any questions, Professor?"

Slughorn's hesitation gave Narcissa a bad feeling.

"My reserves of Felixir were bought out by Dumbledore not long ago. You know he is the principal..." Slughorn was quite helpless about this, feeling that he had made a loss at the time.

"Sold out?" The expression on Narcissa's face suddenly fell.

"Don't worry, I will write to someone to help purchase the materials for the Felixir. We should be able to start brewing it before the end of the month." Professor Slughorn comforted him.

At this moment, the expression on Professor Slughorn's face suddenly froze, as if someone had cast a body-binding spell.

In fact, someone did cast a spell on Slughorn, and the person who cast the spell was Miss Pansy Parkinson in front of him. He couldn't understand why the other party did this. Is it because he was so confused after hearing the Felixir?

Did Bullide buy it?

But...why?

After Slughorn said that he did not have the Elixir of Bliss, Narcissa felt that Slughorn was lying, or at least not telling the whole truth.

If she didn't get the elixir from this adventure, it would be a wasted trip. This was something Narcissa couldn't tolerate, so she decided to adopt plan B.

How to pry open Slughorn's mouth in a short time and get the Elixir of Felixir from him?

Snape's solution.

Therefore, instead of using the Cruciatus Curse to torture Slughorn, Narcissa used a simpler method: Veritaserum.

Slughorn watched helplessly as Miss Pansy Parkinson pried open his mouth and poured three drops of Veritaserum into his mouth.

The next moment, Slughorn's consciousness began to become blurred, and a feeling of uncontrollable thinking emerged. He vaguely heard a voice asking: "Where did you hide the Elixir?"

"In the wooden box in the drawer on the right side of the desk." Slughorn replied in an emotionless tone.

Narcissa was overjoyed and hurried over, only to find that the drawer was locked with a spell and could not be opened even with the use of an unlocking spell.

"Where is the key to the drawer?" she asked angrily.

"In the right pocket of my cloak." Slughorn didn't hide it, and he couldn't hide it. At this moment, his eyes were dull, his mind was blank, and he could only answer the other party's questions reflexively.

When Narcissa found the key, she opened the desk drawer and took out the wooden box Slughorn mentioned. When she opened it in front of her, her expression suddenly froze because there was only the last vial of Fulin left in the wooden box.

agent.

"Where are the rest of the elixirs?" Narcissa asked sharply.

"It has been sold to Dumbledore. He is the principal, and the offer is not low. I can't refuse." Slughorn said, "The remaining bottle is for myself."

"Damn, damn!"

How could Narcissa not be angry? After all the effort, they only got a bottle of elixir, which meant that the next plan was ruined.

As for the bottle of elixir in hand, naturally it should be left to Draco.

When Narcissa erased part of Slughorn's memory and was about to leave, there was a knock on the door.

Narcissa's face looked very ugly. When she was about to approach the door and look for an opportunity to knock out the intruder, she suddenly had a bad feeling.

A hole was opened in the wooden door, and a stun spell flew directly towards Narcissa. Fortunately, the blessing elixir reminded her to successfully escape the sneak attack.

The wooden door suddenly opened, and Narcissa saw something flying towards her, which was hit by her spell and exploded.

It was a bottle of wine. When the wine spilled on the ground, a figure suddenly appeared and launched a fierce attack on her.

Several spells were blocked by Narcissa, blowing a big hole in the cabinet and sofa next to it.

The two sides reached a stalemate.

Narcissa knew she had to get out of here. The sound of fighting would definitely attract others.
