Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs - Chapter 737

“You happen to have a magical item in your hand that can help Dobby. It can even be said that it is the best item in the entire wizarding world…”
Harry was stunned for a moment: “What are you talking about?”
Lu Ke smiled and shook his head: “Invisibility cloak.”
Harry was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: “I actually forgot!”
Then he shook his head: “But it seems like the invisibility cloak…haven’t you been able to find me hidden under the invisibility cloak many times?”
Lu Ke shook his head: “This does not mean that the invisibility cloak is not a useful thing.”
“As a house elf, Dobby is able to keep himself absolutely quiet and not disturb his master. This is the instinct of a house elf. This, coupled with the invisibility cloak, is the best way to hide.”
Lu Ke smiled and glanced at Dobby: “You have to understand, Harry, the mysterious man is also a master of alchemy. He must know how to guard against alchemical items, so in fact anything I can take out is not safe enough.”
Harry was stunned for a moment: “Then my invisibility cloak…”
Lu Ke shook his head with admiration: “Your invisibility cloak is not an alchemical item. I have studied it carefully. It is almost a strange item whose origin cannot be explained, analyzed or copied. I don’t think Voldemort has much knowledge in alchemy.” will surpass me.”
Hermione was talking quietly to Johanna, but she couldn’t help but speak when she heard this: “But now Voldemort has a villain in a bottle!”
Lu Ke smiled and shook his head: “Even so, I don’t think Voldemort will get any more information than me.”
Johanna smiled and nodded to Hermione: “Don’t worry.”
Hermione looked at Johanna with some confusion, then at Lu Ke, but finally said nothing.
She felt a little strange, but since both of them were so sure, that was good news.
“You actually forgot the invisibility cloak, Harry,” Lu Ke looked at Harry with a smile, his face relaxed, “You haven’t been chased by the professor recently, have you forgotten the past?”
Harry shook his head helplessly.
Although things went incredibly smoothly, Harry was not as relaxed as Lu Ke.
Unlike Lu Ke, even if he took risks with the invisibility cloak many times, Harry did not have such absolute trust in this magical clothing.
“Do you really think the invisibility cloak is enough?”
Lu Ke shook his head: “If you are likely to encounter a mysterious person, no amount of preparation will be enough, but we have no choice.”
“There’s no way I could sneak into Malfoy Manor and steal the key, but Dobby has hope.”
Harry nodded.
He could suddenly understand Dumbledore.
Sometimes you have to pay a price to do the right thing, but many times it is not enough for a person to be willing to sacrifice, because he may not get any reward at all for his sacrifice.
And for a truly valuable victory, a person even has to carefully calculate who to sacrifice.
It was cruel, but not a mistake. It was Voldemort’s fault, not Dumbledore’s, and Harry couldn’t help but think that, in fact, from the beginning to the end, Dumbledore had only sacrificed himself.
This series of thoughts made Harry suddenly feel bad, but Johanna seemed to notice it, and she announced the start of dinner.
Exquisite food was served to the table one after another, all the work of the house elves in the Hogwarts kitchen. For them, as long as Lu Ke lived for one day, the guests of the Shafiq family would always enjoy the best banquet.
The three of them ate casually and absentmindedly.
They were all still worried about Dobby.
But soon the three of them discovered that it was a familiar smell.
“Hogwarts?”
Ron asked Harry a little surprised, and then Hermione nodded between the two people: “That’s right.”
Johanna smiled and nodded: “A gift from the house elf. You must not know that Lu Ke has been sneaking into the school kitchen for breakfast every day since the first grade. The house elf regards him as a friend.”
Harry all three laughed.
This is one of the most popular topics among professionals who violate school rules.
But the dinner ended quickly.
Johanna left the three of them to spend the night in the castle. The time they made with Griphook was three days later. For safety, it would be better to stay here for these few days.
But Harry was preoccupied.
The three of them sat together in the ornately decorated room, relatively silent, and went to bed very late.
…
Three days later.
The three of them stood opposite the Leaky Cauldron, silent for a moment, and then crossed the street.
This time they were going to Gringotts to get Griphook’s forged key.
Although everything went smoothly before and the preparations for the plan were almost completed, the three Harrys still felt heavy.
This is an adventure full of dangers. Even now, what is waiting inside Gringotts may be surrounded by Death Eaters.
But they walked all the way to Gringotts and didn’t meet anyone else.
There were still two Death Eaters passing by on the streets of Diagon Alley, but they were in such a hurry that they turned a blind eye to the three Harrys.
The inside of Gringotts was still the same as before, with almost no changes. Harry took out the key to the Potter family vault, and Griphook led them into the mine cart and rushed into the dark abyss.
On the edge of the cliff, Griphook took out a golden key.
“No one can tell the difference between the two except goblins.”
Griphook said and handed the key to Harry: “If you don’t make mistakes, we will succeed in the end.”
Harry silently took the key, nodded, and walked towards the mine cart.
Griphook glanced at him and followed him without saying anything.
Soon everyone returned to the gorgeous hall of Gringotts together, and the three of them, Harry, walked out of the door together.
At this moment, Harry’s hand hidden under his robe was holding the key tightly.
It wasn’t until the three of them returned to the Muggle hotel that Harry let go.
Dobby was waiting for them in the room. When he saw the key in Harry’s hand, he laughed: “Exactly the same!”
Harry shook his head helplessly: “Have you seen the key to the Gringotts vault before?”
Dobby nodded: “This is the key to the Malfoy family!”
Harry shook his head helplessly, and then took out the Potter family’s vault key from his pocket.
In fact, the two keys are completely different.
They each have very complex textures, even like stacked snowflakes, but the materials and details in the design are exactly the same style. Anyone looking at these two keys with very different shapes will believe that they are the same thing.
Harry breathed a sigh of relief. At least in his opinion, the forgery was flawless.
“That……”
Harry gave Dobby a hesitant look.
Dobby stretched out his hand without hesitation: “I’ll go now!”
