Chapter 45 Class Conflict

Lucius immediately introduced Mr. Weasley, who had just stood up, Mrs. Weasley, who had just returned, and their children. Then, the Grangers, who were wandering around the bookstore, also saw everyone gathered here and participated in the introduction session.

Isabel obviously wanted to stay with the protagonists for a while, so she invited them to have dinner together.

Although Lucius looked a little unhappy when he heard that the Grangers were also attending, he still led the way enthusiastically.

Chen Bin felt very bored. The protagonists could be seen every day in school, so there was nothing special about them.

During the meal, Chen Bin secretly checked the textbooks of the Weasley family and did not find Tom's diary, but he found out that Harry was still harassed by Dobby.

Obviously, Lucius Malfoy still participated in the plan to harm Harry, otherwise the house elves of the Malfoy family would not have tipped off.

That is to say, Tom's diary should still be with Lucius Malfoy.

The atmosphere of this afternoon tea was a bit weird.

Isabel was also very enthusiastic about any parent and child, especially the three-person group.

The Weasleys don't like the Malfoys, Lucius Malfoy doesn't like the Grangers, the suicidal trio and Draco Malfoy don't like each other, Percy is reading "How Prefects Get Power" as he wished, the twins are discussing pranks, Ginny is staring at Harry, Chen Bin and Catalina are eating melons the whole time.

After afternoon tea, of course, everyone goes back to their own homes and finds their own mothers.

Isabel also exchanged contact information with each family. The magical family sent owls to send messages, and the Grangers exchanged phone numbers directly.

In the end, Chen Bin didn't find that Lucius secretly stuffed the diary into anyone's hands. "It seems that the changed plot can't be repaired. Let's give the diary to Old Dumbledore to solve it."

Isabel also replied in Chinese: "Actually, this is also good. Lucius has become a philanthropist, although the target is mainly aristocratic blood."

Chen Bin stared at the funny mother with a murderous look: If it weren't for you, how could you have changed so much?

(*╰╯`): "Binbin, I still have things to buy. You and little Kate go back first. La~la~la~la~"

——

The new semester started in the blink of an eye.

Chen Bin brought Katerina to platform nine and three-quarters early in the morning to avoid arriving too late and affecting the plot.

Now Lucius did not put the diary into Ginny's book, but Dobby still prevented Harry from going to school. If he intervened again, even Dumbledore might be out of the question.

Compared to returning to the Chen family's old house and being abused endlessly, he would rather face Voldemort. Maybe this is the maturity after being unable to die?

From the platform to the carriage, many students and parents also took the initiative to greet him, and Chen Bin's smile was a little stiff.

The Daily Prophet has reported his perfect grades and his special status as a professor before he was an adult. His fame has spread among students and parents. He has become an excellent child next door, but students don't even have the courage to challenge him.

In addition, since last Christmas, the serial acquisitions in the Eastern European magic world have also exposed the Nama family to the public's attention. It has been rumored to be the richest magic family in Europe.

If the secular assets such as pounds, dollars and Huaxia currency are added, the Nama family is of course far ahead of the entire Malfoy family. Only the assets in the magic world are counted. The gold galleons, workshops and real estate in the magic world of the Nama family are definitely much less than those of Lucius Malfoy's family, not to mention that they also have a Malfoy family alliance.

In the real world, the Malfoy family's industry is much more terrifying than the description in the novel, but the campus growth style has reduced their influence.

The train whistled and set off. Hermione looked around the train for Harry and Ron, and finally found Chen Bin's carriage.

"It seems that they are really late." Chen Bin motioned to Hermione to sit down. If she didn't sit in this compartment, she might be excluded by her classmates again with her know-it-all personality.

"Yes, Katerina, have you finished your summer homework? Let's exchange them." Hermione had already picked up a mountain of homework and stared at the Ukrainian girl with shining eyes.

She was one of the few girls who could compete with Hermione in terms of grades, and Hermione had long regarded her as a confidant.

"Okay, Hermione." Katerina also took out her homework, but was stared at by Chen Bin strangely.

It was not because he provided the answer that he stared at her, but because she did not call Hermione by her first name. Chen Bin wondered whether what this girl said before was a lie or a hint.

Katerina may have thought of what she said before, her face blushed, and she rolled her eyes at Chen Bin again, and continued to discuss the answer with Hermione.

The two girls chattered and started to gossip again, which senior sister liked whom, which boy expressed his love to his classmates, etc.

After a while, the door of the box opened.

Draco Malfoy, who was pulling his luggage, said a little shyly: "Professor Namar, my father told me to get close to you. Can I sit here?"

Hermione was stunned, seemingly unable to believe that the arrogant Malfoy would ask so humbly.

Chen Bin smiled and welcomed him to sit next to him, and also put his luggage away. Hermione and him had conflicts to begin with, and the atmosphere in the box needed Chen Bin to warm up.

Since meeting Lucius, Chen Bin specifically looked up the actions of the Malfoy family in the past ten years.

The Malfoy family is one of the largest families after Weasley in terms of number of people, and is the wealthiest in the British wizarding world. The current patriarch is Lucius Malfoy.

Lucius is naturally the richest in the family, and there are regular family councils to coordinate the development of industries controlled by various families.

After Voldemort fell, Lucius's entire family also de-dark magic, focusing on how to create more aristocratic families and cultivate the growth of existing aristocratic children.

This is beyond the boundaries of the family. As long as they are pure-blooded families, contribute to the business and political circles of the magic world, or achieve certain magical attainments, they will be supported and promoted to be recognized by the nobles.

Therefore, although Draco has aristocratic pride, his character is also quite pure.

Chen Bin observed his behavior last year. In addition to liking to make trouble for Harry, he is not even a naughty child. He studies hard and treats people politely. Even when challenging Harry, he chooses a wizard duel. He even went to the meeting alone late at night and was punched in the final battle. Moreover, he can't stand disrupting order. Even if he is punished, he will report Harry's night tour.

So, the words and deeds of the fathers will really deeply affect the development of the next generation.

Chen Bin and Draco kept talking about the Malfoy family's contribution to society in recent years, and then talked about the latest trends in the magic world, the impact of the Eastern European magic political situation, the recent development of new potions and alchemy, etc.

Under his leadership, the box finally became lively.

Chen Bin knew in his previous life that most men talk about the current situation, society, policies and other general directions. As long as they don't add personal positions when analyzing, they will definitely open up the topic.

Draco has been raised in an aristocratic way since he was a child, and his answers are even more logical, and he gets more and more excited as he talks. Seeing that he seems to be a little thirsty, Chen Bin conjured up a bottle of black tea for him.

Draco fixed his eyes on the bottle, and Chen Bin smiled and said, "My family prepared the tea, I just summoned it. You also know that my home is in London. Through the summoning circle at home, it is easy to send the items on it to a place not too far away, just a positioning magic can do it."

"That's not the reason." Draco shook his head and said, "Did the Ministry of Magic eliminate your traces because you passed the N.E.W.T.s?"

"Yes, they think my mentality and strength have also reached the requirements of adult wizards, but I think the traces are not innate, but added to minors after entering Hogwarts." Chen Bin's discovery also aroused everyone's interest, and he listed many facts to prove it.

For example, Harry often lost control of magic when he was a child, Hermione experimented with magic according to textbooks before entering school, and Chen Bin used magic since he was a child, but no one received a warning from the Ministry of Magic until he entered Hogwarts and used magic during holidays.

Moreover, the traces have a distance limit, otherwise Chen Bin would have been expelled from Hogwarts countless times for using magic without scruples in Ukraine.

The three young wizards didn't expect this to be a scam, but they thought it was not a scam.

The law clearly states that magic cannot be learned before the age of 11, but it does not say whether the Ministry of Magic can detect whether they are using magic before school. There are still some traditional wizard families who do not go to Hogwarts, but receive education from their elders at home. These underage wizards have always used magic outside of school, but no one cares.

It's not that the law is biased, but that the Ministry of Magic cannot detect it. The original Nama family was like this.

"Sure enough, the nobility still has privileges." Hermione complained angrily, causing Draco to glare at her.

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Chen Bin stopped them at the right time. "Draco, Hermione, listen to my opinion first."

They nodded, and Chen Bin continued: "Whether in the Muggle world or the magic world, unfairness has always existed. However, a mature society should give everyone a fair opportunity. For example, the magic world will allow wizards with difficult bloodlines to study at Hogwarts for free, and the Muggle world will not only waive tuition fees for families in difficulty, but also give them living allowances. This cannot give absolute fairness, but it allows everyone to have the opportunity to learn and compete fairly. Remember, society can only give you the most basic fair opportunities."

"But the nobles can get more resources, learn magic from an early age, and are more likely to get ideal jobs after graduation, and they can also look high and mighty. What kind of fairness is this? Isn't this a competition of family power?" Hermione refuted fiercely.

She saw Draco nodding repeatedly and immediately expressed her anger.

"Hermione, you have a big prejudice against the nobles." Chen Bin knew that if he didn't convince her today, he would definitely get into trouble, so he began to talk a lot. "Let's look at the people around us first. I am a noble, and so is Catalina. Even though Ron's family is poor, the Weasley family is also a noble family, and the largest noble family in Britain. Harry is an orphan, right? But did you know that the Potter family is also a noble family with a long history? He is now the patriarch of the Potter family. I want to ask, have we ever used our family power to bully anyone?"
