Chapter 214: Ideas for Breaking the Situation

When Harry arrived at the Torchwood headquarters, he saw Malfoy sitting on the sofa, chatting with Crabbe and Gao Er.

"Ah, Harry," Malfoy stood up enthusiastically. "Quick, Crabbe, go pour some tea; Gao Er, go get the snack rack."

"Haha, no need to be so polite. I haven't been back for a long time either," Harry decided to be polite to him first. After all, even if he held Malfoy accountable, he couldn't stop him from continuing to make little moves, so it was better to try to get more information and then slowly think of a way to break the situation.

"Of course, of course. To be honest, I really thank you especially," Malfoy whispered. "Not only did you help me come up with a good trick like Muggle Lives Matter, but you also cleverly entangled Pan Xi with SPEW. It seems you really care about Eve."

"Oh yes, but seriously, I haven't made a decision yet. Besides, this depends on Eve's own meaning," Harry said ambiguously because he found that Malfoy's understanding of things seemed to be different from his.

"I have never found that your layout was so clever; everything can be connected," Malfoy said somewhat smugly. "Neville started the Lionheart Society, which attracted Pan Xi's attention very well, and I instructed her to go to Ravenclaw to support Lu Na. She is so busy every day that she can't find out what I am doing at all."

"Neville's Lionheart Society certainly has more than this purpose," Harry expressed some dissatisfaction implicitly.

"I understand, I understand. In this way, in addition to the Muggle Lives Matter movement, I can continue to contact Eve. Even if Pan Xi asks, I can say that I am plotting to subvert Neville. It is really too clever," Malfoy was full of smiles and couldn't stop shaking Harry's hand. "And Ernie, this wonderful move—I am now saying one thing and doing another in the Silver Blood family. This is all thanks to you!"

If it were someone with a narrow mind, they might think Malfoy was mocking him, but Harry at this time felt that judging from Malfoy's expression and tone, he seemed to sincerely think so, which was really a bit funny.

"Cedric not being able to come back was also intentional by you, right? That way, no matter who wins or loses between Ernie and Hannah, the Badger House will fall into our control. It is a truly wonderful layout, which makes me admire it very much, admire it very much," Malfoy said as he stood up. "And I, Draco Malfoy, fully understood all this. I am the confidant who understands you best. This feeling of strong cooperation is really great."

Harry took a deep breath and coughed lightly. He changed his mind now; he didn't need to be very tough because Malfoy seemed to be considering it from the overall perspective of Torchwood. Indeed, according to his operation, Torchwood's power would become stronger and stronger, and it would all be firmly in the hands of his own people.

"This really moved me. I didn't expect you to do so well," Harry said insincerely. He needed some time to sort all this out so as to come up with new tricks. "By the way, what has Trig been doing lately?"

"Oh, him," Malfoy said. "He ran away as soon as the holiday started. It seems that his long-lost grandmother had news. To be honest, this person is very important to the Muggle Lives Matter movement."

"Because his father, Dark, is a Muggle-born wizard, and his mother, Daisy, is also a Muggle-born wizard, according to general bloodline theory, he should belong to a half-blood wizard. However, some stricter bloodline scholars will think that he also belongs to a Muggle-born and must wait until the next generation to be counted as a half-blood wizard. We let him participate in the Muggle Lives Matter movement based on this point," Malfoy explained. "Of course, the Fontroy family tree is easy to check. They were originally a wealthy family in the Muggle world, and you can know that his grandparents were Muggles at once."

"Of course, it's easy to understand," Harry listened absent-mindedly, his brain still running fast, thinking about Malfoy's point of view and attitude, and how to set a trap for him.

"But in this way, who Trig's maternal grandparents are is very particular. If they are wizards, even if they are Muggle-born, then according to even the strictest bloodline theory, he should be counted as a half-blood wizard," Malfoy continued. "According to his mother, his grandmother disappeared very early. In fact, for Muggles, disappearance is very likely to be entering the Wizarding World to live, so everything is still unknown and needs to be confirmed. Of course, the current external statement is naturally that he is Muggle-born."

"Yes, in this kind of thing, the composition of the spokesperson is very important. Sometimes if the composition is wrong, it will significantly weaken the strength of the speech," Harry echoed, but was clearly touched.

"Speaking of which, the starting point of the Muggle Lives Matter movement is Trig. I chose a suitable time to publicly declare to everyone that Trig is Muggle-born and fished for law enforcement to report two people who tried to bully him. Professor Moody turned them into white ferrets directly," Malfoy said with a smile. "As for the fact that these two people happened to be people who didn't obey me in the Silver Blood family, then there is nothing to say."

"Next, I used Trig as a topic again to tell everyone that Muggle-borns can also be very excellent. Oh yes, Trig also made a speech," Malfoy recalled. "I have a dream—that was really great."

Trig had an American uncle after all, and he had considerable experience in this kind of thing. Harry was a bit dumbfounded for a while.

"Later, as a representative of the pure-blood nobles, I naturally needed to come forward to appease the Muggle-borns. At first it was Trig, but soon it became Eve," Malfoy admired. "Thanks to your arrangement in advance that she achieved mostly good reviews among the girls, making her jump to become a representative of Muggle-borns among the girls. This is really great."

"Yes, I think the Muggle Lives Matter movement is very genius, and it shouldn't stop no matter what," Harry was echoing Malfoy and also thinking for himself. Tricking Malfoy into going against the Death Eaters was a very important benefit of the plan and absolutely could not stop.

But how to disintegrate the attacks Neville received, and how to help Hannah completely master Deng Buliduo's Army—these were still clueless to Harry.

"By the way, Eve also feels that Neville stole your limelight in Gryffindor," Malfoy said, looking for something to say. "But actually, it shouldn't be, right? He is your own person, right?"

"Ah, yes," Harry nodded. "I think their attacks on Neville are a bit too fierce."

"Hey, I think so too," Malfoy said. "You really have to deal with Eve and Neville's affairs when you have time. My suggestion is either you persuade Eve to trust Neville, or simply give up Neville completely and support Colin or other boys."

"I think you need some confidants... Of course, I mean those who can manage the students of the Lion House for you. If you think it's better for Ron to follow closely," Malfoy seemed to be giving advice very sincerely. "Colin is actually not bad, easy to control, or Eve should be able to stand on her own when she is a little older. Neville's hostility is indeed too great, whether it is toward the Snake House or his own people, so he really, even if you want to use him, you must correct him first."

"Well, if you think so too," Harry felt that he should say goodbye. "I will talk to them properly when I go back. In fact, you sorted out my train of thought at once, and I thought of how to do it."

"Alright then, don't you want to eat another macaron?" Malfoy asked casually.

"No, I've eaten enough in France," Harry shook his head, then walked out of the Torchwood headquarters with a fake smile.

Before returning to the dormitory, he suddenly saw Alina. Her hair was wet, and a faint fragrance was emitting from her body.

"Oh Harry, this bathroom is great," she said. "Do you want to try it? I'll go down first. Zhang's game console is so fun. Are you going to Hogsmeade tomorrow?"

"Sure," Harry nodded with a smile. He also happened to feel that he needed a hot bath to sort out his thoughts.

When Harry walked into the Room of Requirement, looking at the luxurious bathroom and the steaming water pool, he couldn't help but relax all at once. He took off his clothes, wrapped himself in a towel, walked into the pool and sat down, letting the warm water with fragrance stimulate his skin, driving away the trace of chill that had been lingering all winter.

Perhaps, Harry thought, Trig's matter is worth learning from. If the composition of the spokesperson himself is problematic, then the speech can be cracked. For example, Lavender, who is currently attacking Neville, if there is any way to prove that she herself is an object that should be attacked, then the attacks Neville receives will suddenly weaken a lot.

But this is not urgent. Harry suddenly thought again, if Lavender's actions were all instructed by Eve, and Eve was actually just deceived by Malfoy under the condition of slightly leaning toward Torchwood, then at least after he came back, Lavender turned from a tricky opposition into a card he could play.

Then where can this card be played? Harry pondered. Since Lavender's way of attacking people is discrimination against women, then any boy can be attacked by her. Frankly speaking, if they are prepared to use those unreasonable viewpoints to manipulate Gryffindor, Harry will be very troubled; but if these things are used to attack others and exclude dissidents, it is indeed a very useful weapon.

Perhaps it can be used to attack Malfoy, but Harry is a bit worried. Once Malfoy is determined to go against Lavender, then she will certainly not get any good, and even Eve may be implicated. The Eagle House is currently dominated by Lu Na. First, she is not bad, and second, she is a girl, so she cannot be used. Then Lavender's destination is very obvious.

Let Lavender stand up for Hannah of Deng Buliduo's Army, unreasonably claiming that Hannah was ignored in Deng Buliduo's Army, and first rush Ernie and those who support Dark Magic. Harry stroked his chin. Hannah is of course also a girl. As long as she changes her gun, it is easy to reach a consensus with Lavender.

And Lavender's problem is also easy to solve. If a person who is accustomed to discriminating against others has the face to claim that she is discriminated against and asks others to preside over justice? At that time, use Muggle Lives Matter to fiercely suppress Lavender, and most of the problems should be solved, allowing the situation to return to calm...

Harry gradually figured out the whole plan in the bathroom and breathed a sigh of relief, preparing to stand up.

Suddenly, a girl's sharp voice came from under the water, almost scaring him to the point of cardiac arrest. ===== CHAPTER 215 =====
