Hogwarts: Me? Fight Voldemort?

Give!

The naive Draco, grasping at straws, pulled out his wallet, grabbed a handful of cash, and shoved it into Jimmy's hand. "What should I do?"

The bag already contained more than ten Galonnaises. Jimmy accepted it without batting an eye, making no intention of returning the extras. "It's simple, no problem. You can go back and get some sleep now, and come back to me when you wake up. I'll tell you what to do."

"Can't we say it now?"

The money Draco paid initially bought him a placebo, which made his emotions much more stable than before.

Blaine can solve anything once you pay him.

"Hey~!" Jimmy gave Malfoy a confident smile. "Oh, of course! I can tell you part of it first. You should know who defeated Mystic."

He never shows weakness in front of clients, because that would make them lose trust in him.

"Broken?"

"In addition, there is Professor Dumbledore, the headmaster who defeated the Dark Lord twice."

With gentle persuasion, Malfoy gradually began to show a thoughtful expression.

“The Mystic is dead. Even if he were alive, Headmaster Dumbledore is still in the school protecting the students. The person the Mystic fears most is the Headmaster. Within the boundaries of Hogwarts, you are absolutely safe.”

Anyway, Jimmy wanted to send the man back first, and then tell Malfoy what to do once he had a complete plan.

He likes to plan things out meticulously, but if he doesn't have time to plan, he'll just throw his brain aside and get to work.

Draco's matter is not urgent, and in fact, it cannot be rushed. He still needs to collect money until June, and it's only November 1st now. That means he still has 11 Galleons to collect, so he can't rush it.

"It's all packed, all packed!" Jimmy pushed Draco back to the castle.

His daily fitness plan was no longer feasible, so he went back to wash up and then went to the Great Hall to devise a complete process for Draco to overcome his fear.

It's too much trouble to do everything step by step, so let's just leave it to Harry.

With that in mind, Jimmy's plan gradually took shape, including starting to provide breakfast and the fees for the entire semester—oh no! I mean, the entire semester's treatment.

Just then, three people walked into the Great Hall: Harry, Ron, and Hermione. They were excitedly discussing something.

After they sat down, Harry took the initiative to tell them what they had been talking about...

Just as Harry was coming downstairs, he saw that Snape was limping, and then he remembered how Snape had rushed out the small door on Halloween.

"Snape must have gone to the right-hand corridor on the fourth floor; he wanted to steal something from there."

"Steal what?" Jimmy asked casually as he skewered a sausage.

Harry said confidently, "It must be the thing that Hagrid and I took out of Gringotts that day. It's one of Dumbledore's most important items!"

Such an obvious fishing technique can only fool children.

Jimmy nodded in agreement, which encouraged Harry and the others to talk even more enthusiastically.

Speaking of the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor, Jimmy thought of Voldemort, and thinking of Voldemort made him miss the generous Professor Quirrell.

So many days have passed, it's time to go and ask Quirrell for some money. I'm sure the kind and amiable Professor Quirrell will give this honest and trustworthy little wizard some reward!

Chapter 50: Let Malfoy Apologize

After the morning classes ended, Jimmy went to the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's office during his lunch break.

There was no need to knock; the smell indicated that Quirrell was inside, but he still knocked politely nonetheless.

"Please, please come in."

Quirrell's stammering voice came from inside the door.

Jimmy pushed open the door and entered, only to see Professor Quirrell standing in the corner of the room, smiling and watching him.

"Ah~! My beloved Professor Quirrell!" Jimmy greeted the generous Professor Quirrell with an exaggerated opening line, saying, "You asked me to protect Harry Potter before, and he recently told me that Professor Snape is going to steal something hidden in the right-hand corridor on the fourth floor!"

Risk and opportunity go hand in hand. Be greedy when others are fearful, go all in! Going all in is a kind of wisdom.

He really wants something right now, and he hopes Professor Quirrell will understand what he means and be sensible enough to do so.

Upon hearing that it was about the right-hand corridor on the fourth floor, Professor Quirrell was indeed very interested, and he even stopped stammering as he asked, "What's in the right-hand corridor on the fourth floor?"

Jimmy said, "Harry only said that he saw a three-headed dog there, and there was a trapdoor under the three-headed dog's feet. I will keep an eye on Harry."

"good very good."

Voldemort's voice echoed in Quirrell's head; he hadn't been mistaken after all!

Jimmy Blaine was the kind of person who was greedy and ruthless in achieving his goals.

Give him some Galleons!

This was the first time Voldemort had heard that there was a three-headed dog at the end of the corridor, because every time he tried to approach it, his fear of Dumbledore would always make him hesitate.

How could he not have imagined that it was Dumbledore's conspiracy? But Voldemort's own arrogance and his understanding of Dumbledore led him to acquiesce to this game.

Halloween was his first attempt, and that attempt failed.

Snape acted too quickly; the loyal servant now behaved like a true traitor.

Voldemort wouldn't let Snape see his weakness. It's a good thing that the foolish Harry Potter doubted Snape; he could use Galleons to get the greedy Jimmy Blaine to help him resurrect.

Having received his master's task, Quirrell feigned satisfaction and said, "Well done, Mr. Blaine. I... I'll give you a reward."

Hey!

Jimmy's eyes were fixed on Quirrell's hand, which he had slipped inside his robes, and saw him pull out a handful of Galleons, perhaps a dozen or so.

The quantity is small, but that's okay, I can get it myself!

Jimmy, having accepted the Galleons, began to make his request, “Oh, dear Professor Quirrell, I think I need some extra help. Protecting Harry Potter is no easy task, his personality… you know, he’s a bit impulsive, so I need a briefcase with a tamper-evident enlargement charm.”

What does Harry Potter's impulsiveness have to do with wanting a briefcase with a seamless expansion charm?

It's obvious that you wanted a box yourself!

Quirrell had never seen such a greedy little wizard, but he dared not make a decision on his own; this was the person the Dark Lord had his eye on.

Give it to him!

Voldemort spoke up. He didn't care what price Quirrell had to pay to satisfy this greedy little wizard. On the contrary, the more greedy Jimmy Blaine was, the easier he would be to control!

With a stiff turn, Quirrell walked to the side of the office, picked up a box with a traceless expansion spell placed on the floor, put it on the desk, opened the desk, shrunk the contents of the box and put them in his pocket, then cleaned it and handed it to Jimmy.

"You must take good care of Harry Potter, and if there is any news, inform me immediately."

This suitcase is quite big for Jimmy, but bigger is better!

He admired Quirrell's, or rather Voldemort's, bold and unrestrained spirit!

"Don't worry, leave it to me!" Having gotten what he wanted, Jimmy naturally assured him repeatedly.

I'll come back to beg for money next time...

With the thought that Professor Quirrell was a good person still nagging at him, Jimmy returned to his dorm room and checked the space in the box. He found that the box was quite large, a 2x2 space, 1 meter high, and 4 square meters.

Jimmy put his suitcase under the bed so he could go back to London during the Christmas holidays and spend all the remaining pounds on snacks.

He had considered saving his pounds for his second year to exchange for Galleons at Gringotts, but he needed to quickly develop to the point where money could generate more money, so he needed a lot of funds in his first year.

If the plan goes smoothly, his shop will be profitable by the time he's in second grade, and with his extra income, he won't be short of those few dozen gallons anymore.

The speed at which you accumulate initial wealth directly affects how quickly you acquire resources later on. Just like in strategy games, the faster you make money from money, the more wealth you accumulate later.

When Jimmy went to class in the afternoon, Draco blocked his way. Draco, who had just finished catching up on his sleep, seemed to be in much better shape.

“I already have a plan!” Jimmy interjected before Draco could speak. “What you need to do next is to befriend Harry.”

“Me? With Poot?” Draco pointed to himself, looking embarrassed. “He doesn’t like me at all, he’s always with that Weasley. And… why should I be friends with Poot!”

This was an important part of Jimmy's treatment plan, designed to make it easier for him to include someone in Harry's adventures.

It used to be difficult for two people to become friends, but now Draco has encountered a powerful external force that can suppress the power of the Face Fruit, so it's no problem!

Jimmy began spouting his twisted logic, "Why is Harry Potter called the savior of the wizarding world? Isn't it because he defeated the Dark Lord!"

Because he once defeated the mysterious man, it's safest for you to stay by his side. Come here, I'll tell you a secret…”

He looked around mysteriously to make sure no one was eavesdropping, then leaned close to Draco's ear and whispered a secret that even Voldemort himself didn't know: "Harry Potter actually has a protective spell, and this protective spell is against the Dark Lord. As long as this spell is still active, the Dark Lord can't harm Harry."

Draco trusted Jimmy completely, but the concept of this protective magic was beyond his comprehension, so his eyes were filled with doubt.

Jimmy said, "This is a statement confirmed by Dumbledore. Being around Harry Potter is just as safe as being around Dumbledore, at least until he is an adult."

With Dumbledore's name on the table, Draco began to have doubts. "Really? But..."

Recalling the unpleasant exchange on the train to Hogwarts, he felt embarrassed and didn't want to lose face again.

Seeing the struggle on Draco's face, Jimmy said something strange, "Draco, you don't want to be captured and tortured by the Mystic, do you?"

"What should I do?" Draco's face turned pale again, the fear of death brought by the mysterious man overcoming the social difficulties.

“It’s simple…” As a socialite, Jimmy knew what Draco was struggling with and what he could do to salvage his relationship with Harry. “You need to find an opportunity to apologize to Harry.”

Draco's expression changed immediately, but he continued listening.

"There's not much of a conflict between you. As long as you apologize, you can become friends. Also, you need to learn to respect others. Friends aren't your followers; you're equals..."

This social studies lesson wasn't very engaging; Jimmy only covered some basic concepts. He wanted to spend more time teaching Draco how to respect others and get along peacefully.

How can I make money if I don't extend the class time?

Chapter 51 A Fated Couple

Draco needs some time to mentally prepare himself, and Jimmy promises to find him some books to learn about interpersonal skills for Christmas.

The mental preparation required was far more difficult than Draco had anticipated. Every time he went to see Harry, he couldn't help but make sarcastic and mocking remarks about him.

Jimmy was getting increasingly anxious for Draco. His repeated urging and suggestions failed to advance their relationship, which was truly frustrating.

The two should be destined to be best friends. If things continue like this, how will Draco ever gain Harry's friendship?

"Ah, I know, definitely after the Quidditch match!" Draco nearly ruffled his neatly combed blond hair; he had indeed felt safer these past few days after increasing his contact with Harry.

The ability to seek advantage and avoid harm is an innate talent of the Malfoy family members. This talent has accompanied the Malfoy family's development over the long years, allowing them to join the so-called sacred 28 families.

This is not the unverifiable sixth sense of a Muggle, but a genuine magical talent.

Many wizards possess unique magical talents, and some of their characteristics are quite prominent; Jimmy could think of many examples.
