Anyway, Darren was extremely satisfied with the wand.
Even if it cost him 10,000 Galleons.
After playing with his wand for a while, Darren finally called Patsy out and "obediently" asked the professors about their impressions of the food.
“Great! The cakes that Master Darren sent have all received praise from the professors. Even Professor Snape, who doesn’t usually like cakes, nodded modestly.”
Only the eccentric Professor Dumbledore, for some reason, stared at the cake for a while, muttered "bad luck," and threw away a small piece.
Patty patted her head in confusion.
I don't understand what's going on with Mr. Dumbledore.
Darren went through so much trouble to bring back this cake, how could he just throw away a piece?
"Don't worry about those little things, Patchouli. I just wanted to make a small contribution for everyone, especially you, Patchouli. You've been so good to me."
[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]
“My wonderful little master Darren is always so kind and lovely. Patty has never met such a good master.”
Patchouli told everyone at Hogwarts about Darren's situation, and they all cried with heartache!
Patty said proudly.
Darren looked up, bewildered.
What?
Why tell his story to the whole of Hogwarts?
Wait, what are you talking about?
Could it be that he stopped Mundungus and Mr. Granger from fighting?
He felt a little guilty about it and didn't plan to publicize it.
The more it is publicized, the more likely it is to be seen as a clever person, which can easily give the impression that he likes to show off and cause trouble.
His "Holy Father Points" are earned on the spot; passing on too many won't give him any more.
It's better to keep a low profile.
And he can also gain a reputation for quietly doing good deeds and sincerely acting as a saint.
Darren was about to ask when Patty excitedly continued:
“Young Master Darren just told Patty to go and rest; he’s so kind.”
However, Patchouli encountered several professors on her way to rest, all of whom wanted to know what had happened to Darren's young master in the past.
So Patty went to Darren's old orphanage, asked him about Darren, and then told the professors about it.
The professors all cried. They said that Darren had suffered a lot in the past and that Patchouli should take good care of him.
The professors didn't ask about anything else, so Patsy didn't say anything either.
Ah this...
Darren really didn't expect that the professors at Hogwarts were quite gossipy.
However, it does help him to pretend to be a saint later on.
"Okay, but Patty, you shouldn't talk about it outside anymore. If anyone asks you, just say I was doing well before. I don't want to cause trouble for others, understand?"
[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]
Darren accepted this unexpected joy and gave serious instructions.
Although telling everyone about his past might help his name as the Father spread further.
But it would be too fake to tell everyone about it.
On the contrary, telling people that he is doing well arouses their curiosity and makes them more interested in his past.
Then I inquired.
Hey, doesn't that solidify his saintly image?
"Okay, Darren is always so kind, Patty will be good."
Patty nodded, her unusually large eyes revealing her heartache.
Its little owner is always so considerate of others, why doesn't he think more about himself?
He could have made people feel sorry for him by letting everyone know about his past, but he chose to bear the pain alone.
How could such a good little owner be lost right after birth?
Chapter Twenty-Six: Slytherin
It was already late at night when I finished dealing with Patchi.
Darren finally felt sleepy, and after simply turning over, he fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up, the sunlight was already shining on the earth.
Finished washing up.
Patty brought over a bowl of oatmeal and two syrup cakes.
Perhaps because they thought Darren liked sweets, they added a lot of sugar to the oatmeal.
Darren, who eats a lot, always feels that he might get diabetes in the future.
"Young Master Darren, shall we go to Diagon Alley?"
"go with!"
Of course I want to go!
Darren wiped his mouth, patted his stomach, and contentedly prepared to head to Diagon Alley to complete some temporary missions.
Patchouli smiled and nodded, then Apparated him to Diagon Alley.
Diagon Alley remains bustling with activity.
The closer it gets to the start of the school year, the more people gather in Diagon Alley.
Some students always wait until the beginning of the semester to buy their books.
Darren saw an elderly woman scolding her grandson.
As he approached, he heard her say:
"Neville, why can't you remember things? How are we going to buy things if we lose Galleons?"
"I'm sorry, Grandma, I forgot..."
"Ugh!"
Darren curiously observed the grandfather and grandson for a while. Neville, the boy who almost survived in the original story, now looked indeed honest and interesting.
However, since no temporary mission was triggered, he did not go forward.
I can only buy books first.
Flourish and Blotts is located next to Madam Malkin's Robes in Diagon Alley.
The bookshelves here are piled high with books, some even reaching the ceiling.
Some books even fight each other.
Darren also saw a book printed with countless strange symbols, which dazzled him.
"what……"
A gasp snapped Darren out of his reverie.
It turned out that an older girl had been knocked down.
She stood up with a frown, glaring angrily at a boy with light blond hair and gray eyes in front of her.
"Malfoy, how dare you do this?"
Malfoy?
Darren immediately recalled Draco Malfoy from the original novel.
Currently, he is probably the only child in the Malfoy family.
Instead of immediately stepping forward to display his saintly radiance, he stood aside and watched the spectacle.
"Hmph, Becky Greengrass, this is for refusing me at the ball, that's what you get!"
Greengrass?
Like the Malfoys, this surname is among the top of the Twenty-Eight Pureblood Families.
Darren recalls that in the original book, Malfoy apparently married a Greengrass girl.
It shouldn't be this one, right?
Darren couldn't recall the exact name right away, but he was sure it wasn't Becky.
Does Malfoy also argue with other people?
