Chapter 587 Fulfilling the Oath
The attempt to persuade them ended badly.
Hermione found Sean a while later and told him about Ginny's situation.
This approach undoubtedly reflects a lesson learned from the past.
Sean said he knew about it and told Hermione not to tell anyone.
Hermione then realized that this might be Sean's plan.
But since Sean knows, that's fine; she's accomplished her mission.
but----
Sean didn't seem to have any intention of letting her leave.
What does it mean that she wasn't allowed to leave?
Meanwhile, Ginny had already quietly left the dormitory and arrived at the Peach Blossom Alliance bathroom at the agreed time.
I don't know why—
The Mahogany Washroom witnessed many of the students' transactions and plans.
When Ginny arrived, Malfoy and Crabbe appeared to have been waiting there for quite some time.
The two men stood near the water tap. Malfoy leaned against the wall, looking impatient, while Crabbe stood expressionless to the side as always, looking like a guard.
Hearing the noise at the door, Malfoy immediately looked up and saw Ginny walk in. His expression changed abruptly, from impatience to seriousness.
He waved for Crabbe to step aside.
"You're late, Weasley," Malfoy said in a low voice.
"You arrived too early." Ginny glanced at him. "Hurry up and finish. I'd like to hear your plan."
Seeing Ginny urging him on, Malfoy was pleased rather than angry.
What does this tell us?
This shows that Ginny really had a strong desire to collaborate.
He beckoned Crabbe over, then extended his hand for Ginny to put it on.
Ginny glanced at him, then put on her gloves.
Malfoy was even happier.
He hadn't wanted to hold Ginny's hand in the first place, but her doing so suited him perfectly.
Their hands clasped together.
Crabbe also pulled out his wand.
"You'll wholeheartedly help me complete my plan, won't you?" Malfoy asked, staring into Ginny's eyes.
"Wait a minute," Ginny interrupted him immediately.
"What's wrong?" Malfoy asked.
"You should explain your plan in detail, or at least state your mission objectives."
Ginny curled her lip and retorted sarcastically.
"What if your plan isn't what you told me before? Won't I fall into your trap?"
Upon seeing this, a fleeting look of regret crossed Malfoy's eyes.
In fact—
Not only did Ginny want to deceive Malfoy, but Malfoy also harbored the idea of deceiving Ginny.
As Ginny said.
He deliberately used the vague term "plan," so who knows what kind of plan it is?
At that point, Ginny will be completely under his control.
Unfortunately—it seems that her little scheme was seen through.
Two people who made an unbreakable vow but harbored ulterior motives can only be described as being matched with equally matched opponents.
"Are you willing to wholeheartedly help me complete my mission? My mission is to kill Phillips and Dumbledore—"
Crabbe, who was a witness, did not react to these words.
It seems he already knew about Malfoy's plan.
"Wait a minute," Ginny called out again.
"What is it now?" Malfoy asked, sounding impatient.
This time, he didn't try anything funny.
"You only mentioned Phillips, not Dumbledore. Dumbledore isn't even at Hogwarts right now, so how am I supposed to help you with your mission? Besides—"
Ginny paused for a moment, then continued speaking with conviction.
"The only person I want to deal with is Phillips. Dumbledore wasn't on the list I discussed with you before. Besides, with our combined strength, are we really capable of taking down Dumbledore?"
As she spoke, she looked Malfoy up and down with a suspicious gaze, the implication of which was self-evident.
Malfoy felt embarrassed by that look.
Fortunately, it was nighttime, so the other person couldn't see his expression.
Indeed—Ginny is still right; dealing with Dumbledore was not on the agenda that the two of them had discussed beforehand.
"Are you willing to wholeheartedly help me complete my mission? My mission is to kill Phillips and—" Malfoy changed his mind again.
"Wait a minute," Ginny interrupted him again.
This time, even Crabbe, who was standing next to him, couldn't stand it anymore.
Although Crabbe didn't speak, his slightly trembling hand holding the wand spoke volumes about his impatience.
"You need to add a condition: without harming my interests, I don't want to become a victim of your plan—like—Percy, becoming Umbridge's—."
Ginny's words still seem very reasonable.
Percy became a victim of the Umbridge Plan, so it's understandable that Ginny would say such things given this precedent.
Even so, Malfoy was somewhat at a loss for words.
How can I formulate a suitable oath?
"Then you decide on the content of the oath," Malfoy said, passing the buck to Ginny.
Even so, Malfoy remained highly vigilant.
If Ginny tries to trick him with the content of the vow, he will not hesitate to stop the vow.
and----
Have Crabbe erase Ginny's memory.
This was also Malfoy's safeguard in case the plan failed.
"I will help you carry out the plan to assassinate Phillips, provided it doesn't harm my own interests. From now on, this plan must be kept secret from everyone. Do you agree to what I'm saying?"
Malfoy kept repeating this sentence to himself.
I didn't see anything wrong with it.
"I do," Malfoy said.
A thin, dazzling tongue of fire shot out from Crabbe's wand, like a red-hot metal wire, and wrapped around their clasped hands.
"If the plan is leaked, the person arrested cannot betray the other person. The other person must do their utmost to help the person in danger. Do you agree?"
This was exactly what Malfoy wanted.
If his plan fails and he finds himself in a situation where he has to escape Hogwarts, he will need someone from another house to help him distract the other.
"I do," he said.
A second tongue of fire shot out from the wand, intertwining with the first to form a thin, glowing red chain.
"And, if necessary—"
As Ginny spoke, Malfoy's eyes grew even brighter.
Before Ginny could even finish speaking, he impatiently interrupted her.
"I do."
Crabbe's face was flushed red by the light of the third tongue of fire, which spewed from his wand and intertwined with the first two, tightly coiling around their clasped hands like a rope, like a fire-breathing snake.
The same steps apply to Crabbe.
Just in case, Karab was also made to sign an unbreakable oath.
Malfoy looked at the two men with satisfaction and truthfully explained his plan to them.
"Soon afterward, I decided—"
