Draco had a very long dream. In the dream, Ron angrily questioned Draco why he deceived everyone. In the dream, Harry said to Draco, from now on, we are no longer friends. In the dream, Hermione looked into Draco's eyes and shed tears of disappointment.
At this moment, Draco seemed to hear someone calling his name in a daze. The voice was sometimes far away and sometimes near. He was very familiar with it, but for a moment, he could not remember who was speaking.
Draco forced his eyelids open and saw his house-elf, Dobby, pushing him around and calling his name.
"Dobby?!"
Draco called out Dobby's name with some difficulty. Dobby was overjoyed and quickly helped Draco up from the bed and handed him a glass of unknown drink.
After Draco drank the drink with some difficulty, he felt a little better and gradually woke up.
Draco glanced around and found himself lying on his own bed in Malfoy Manor, with Dobby standing beside him, looking at him expectantly.
Draco saw Dobby and said unhappily, "Dobby, who let you into my room?! But since you interrupted my nightmare, I won't punish you this time!"
"Oh my god, it's so scary. I actually dreamed that all my best friends broke up with me! The feeling of being surrounded by loneliness is so terrifying!"
Draco couldn't help but sigh.
But at this moment, Draco found that Dobby was still standing beside his bed, and seemed to have no intention of leaving.
Seeing this, Draco couldn't help but frowned and said:
"Dobby, what are you doing standing here? Get to work!"
Dobby was seen hesitating and seemed to walk out involuntarily, but when Dobby reached the door of Draco's room, he suddenly said:
"Little Master, have you ever thought that maybe you weren't dreaming just now?!"
Draco was stunned when he heard Dobby's words, and then memories flooded into Draco's mind like a tide.
After Dobby's reminder, Draco clearly remembered how he brought Harry and others to Malfoy Manor, as well as Ron's angry roar at the end.
Draco fell silent when he recalled the past. Then he waved his hand, motioning Dobby to come to his side. Draco covered his cheeks with both hands and asked in a dull tone: "What happened after I fainted? Tell me everything!"
Dobby then told Draco everything that happened in Malfoy Manor after Draco fainted.
It includes the confrontation between Cassandra and others and the Death Eaters, the resurrection of Voldemort, and how Cassandra and others were finally captured by Voldemort.
After listening to Dobby's description, Draco's head was completely buried in the quilt. After a while, a low sob came from Draco's quilt.
After a long while, Draco poked his head out from under the quilt, looked at Dobby and said:
"Take me to see Harry Potter and Cassandra!"
Hearing Draco's order, Dobby quickly said: "Okay, my little master!"
Then, Dobby turned around and was about to lead the way when he heard Draco's voice behind him: "Wait a minute!"
When Dobby turned around curiously, he saw Draco holding a wand in his hand, pointing it at Dobby. Dobby was startled by Draco and quickly raised his hand, while Draco looked at Dobby and asked meaningfully:
Hearing Draco's question, Dobby seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said, "My young master, this is my own decision. It has nothing to do with anyone else?!"
Seeing that Draco frowned and seemed to not believe what he said, Dobby quickly said: "My little master, as a house-elf, I cannot betray my master! But... I think the old master didn't do much in this matter!"
At this point, Dobby grabbed the candlestick in Draco's room and smashed it hard on his head, saying:
"Dobby shouldn't speak ill of his master! Dobby is a bad house-elf! Dobby can't..."
Seeing this, Draco quickly snatched the candlestick from Dobby's hand and said:
"Alright, alright! I order you in the name of the master to take me to see Harry Potter and Cassandra!"
At this point, Draco paused and added, "Also, without my permission, you are not allowed to make such a big noise again!"
Hearing Draco's words, Dobby nodded repeatedly and said:
"Good little master! I am happy to serve you, my little master!"
Then, Draco, led by Dobby, quietly slipped out of his room.
As soon as he opened the door, Draco heard the sounds of a lively party coming from downstairs. After a moment's silence, Draco gestured for Dobby to move on.
But Draco didn't know that when he followed Dobby's footsteps and left his room, Narcissa slowly walked out from the corner on the other side of the corridor. Watching her son disappear at the end of the corridor, Narcissa slowly said:
"Draco, make your own decision!"
Soon, under the guidance of Dobby, Draco came to an abandoned storage room in Malfoy Manor, which was filled with some abandoned items.
Dobby gently moved a few items, and on the floor of the abandoned utility room, accompanied by an imperceptible vibration, a staircase leading underground suddenly appeared.
This made Draco feel extremely curious, because even Draco himself didn't know that there was such a secret room in his home.
Walking down the stairs, Draco soon arrived at the bottom of the secret chamber. It was not as dark as Draco had imagined. At the bottom of the secret chamber was a huge space surrounded by steel fences.
At this moment, Draco heard a puzzled voice suddenly coming from the shadows in front of him: "Draco Malfoy?!"
Looking in the direction of the voice, Draco discovered that the one who had just exclaimed was Cassandra.
Seeing this, Draco ran over and said to Cassandra across the fence:
"Senior Cassandra, are you okay? What about the others? How are they? What about Harry? Is he okay?!"
Cassandra remained silent and shook her head slowly. Just when Draco's heart was about to sink to the bottom, he heard Cassandra slowly say: "You asked so many questions at once, which one do you want me to answer first? Can't you tell what they are like yourself?"
Looking in the direction of Cassandra's finger, Draco couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat.
