Chapter 34 Dolphin's Request
The Christmas holiday was over soon, and the students returned to school one after another. Hogwarts became lively and everyone was very happy, whether they stayed in school or went home. They exchanged their Christmas experiences with each other and had a great time chatting.
However, not everyone was happy. Dolphin spent a not-so-happy Christmas.
The Carrow family was once one of the 28 noble pure-blood families, but now it has declined. In the past hundreds of years, the Carrow family has always refused to marry Muggle wizards, and insisted on maintaining their "noble bloodline", only marrying with direct pure-bloods from the same 28 pure-blood families. However, after hundreds
and thousands of years of mutual marriage, the blood relationship of the 28 pure-blood families has become very close, and continuing to marry is no different from marrying close relatives.
The result of this is that the number of members of the Carrow family is getting smaller and smaller, and there are more and more Squibs.
As we all know, the probability of giving birth to deformed and mentally retarded children in close-kin marriage is very high, but there is also a small probability that super geniuses will be born, which is why many people insist on the theory of pure-blood aristocracy. The vast majority of famous wizards in history come from extremely pure-blood wizard families.
Originally, if the Carrow family could give birth to a genius with superhuman talents, they could lead the Carrow family to rise again. However, it is obvious that they do not have such luck.
In fact, Dolphin is the only descendant of their generation, and the rest have almost lost their fertility. However, this is not the most fatal. The current priority is that the Carrow family has no money.
Pure-blood families like the Carrow family are still immersed in the glory of the past and cannot extricate themselves. They pursue the ultimate luxury in food, clothing and daily expenses. It is conceivable that with such descendants, no matter how much wealth their ancestors have accumulated for them, they will be squandered by them.
So Dolphin was taken by his parents to participate in the Christmas dinner at Malfoy Manor. They hoped that the Malfoy family would be able to give them some help because they were all pure-blood families.
But things did not go as planned. At the dinner, a group of children led by Draco humiliated Dolphin in every way. The reason was the Dolphin Magic Drink. In Draco's opinion, the magic drinks sold by Mike and the Weasley brothers were all named after Dolphin, so their relationship must be very good.
So Dolphin was miserable. He had no playmates of the same age since he was a child. When he grew up, he was looked down upon by children from other wizard families because his family was too poor. This cultivated his inferiority complex.
There is a saying that if you don't explode in silence, you will die in silence.
Under Draco's humiliation, Dolphin chose to explode and punched Draco in the cheek. Draco staggered back a few steps after being hit by his punch, but did not fall to the ground.
Then Draco, who was angry and embarrassed, and Gollcrabbe gave Dolphin a severe lesson, and later drove Dolphin and his parents out of Malfoy Manor.
Dolphin returned to Hogwarts with injuries all over his body, and the first thing he did when he arrived at Hogwarts was to find Mike.
"You promised to help me before, are you serious?" Dolphin's face was bruised and purple, and he was grimacing in pain when he spoke.
"Of course, if you have any trouble, just tell me!" Hearing this, Mike stood up from the sofa next to the stove. He knew that business was coming.
"I want you to help me teach Draco a lesson. That guy beat me up like this! He also humiliated my parents!" Dolphin pointed to the bruises on his face and said viciously.
Mike walked around Dolphin and observed his injuries, and said, "It seems that he hurt you badly. I won't ask what happened specifically. You are my friend, and I will definitely help you. It's just that the cost issue..."
Dolphin was furious when he heard Mike's words, and stepped forward and grabbed Mike's collar and shouted, "Didn't I give you the formula of the magic drink! Didn't you say you would help me! Do you know that it's because of you..."
Before he could finish, Mike raised his right foot and kicked Dolphin in the abdomen, kicking him out.
"Be polite, little brat!" Mike straightened his collar. "Don't you think about who is willing to help you now, Cedric? I'm afraid that guy is lucky not to bother you. In a word, if you want my help, you have to give me some benefits, otherwise, no deal!"
"But...but I don't have money." Dolphin curled up.
"I'm not short of money." Mike's face showed a smile of success. "I know that your Carrow family is one of the 28 pure-blood families. Even if you have almost ruined it, but a lean camel is bigger than a horse. You must have some good things in your family." "
Our family heirlooms have been sold out long ago."
It seems that Mike's kick just now was quite strong. Until now, Dolphin is still lying on the ground. He struggled to get up several times but failed.
"So there is no room for negotiation?" Mike winked at Franklin beside him.
Franklin understood, nodded to Mike, and walked to Dolphin, ready to throw him out of the Ravenclaw common room.
"Wait! Wait! I know what to give you!" Dolphin thought Franklin was going to teach him a lesson again, and hurriedly put his hands on his head and said.
Mike raised his hand to stop Franklin's action, sat back on the sofa and said, "Tell me."
"The Wind Speed Spell! Our Carrow family's inherited spell, which can make people move faster. I have learned it." Dolphin knelt on the ground with sweat on his forehead, "The Wind Speed Spell is very useful! Really!"
Mike stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help Dolphin up, whispering in his ear: "Deal!"
After watching Dolphin write down the method of casting the Wind Speed Spell, Mike took Franklin to the Slytherin lounge. This time Mike didn't plan to use any conspiracy or tricks. This was the first time he stood up for his little brother. He just wanted to teach Malfoy a lesson in public. Only in this way would others know how loyal he was.
As for the school rules, Mike didn't care at all. With his relationship with Professor Flitwick, the school would never expel him for such a thing. Not to mention the house points. At the beginning, Mike had the idea of winning the house cup, but then he realized that this year's house cup had been chosen by Dumbledore for Harry Potter.
No matter how many points he earned for Ravenclaw, at the end of the grade, Dumbledore would use various titles to help Gryffindor gain points until Gryffindor became the first.
