Chapter 654 Dobby’s Wanderings (1)
Dobby is free!
Harry Potter frees Dobby from the Malfoy family.
At this moment, the house elf Dobby was standing outside Malfoy Manor, looking at the manor shrouded in magic in the distance, feeling that everything was just a dream.
become free!
Dobby is free!
Everything starts a few days ago.
That day, Dobby saw a house elf dressed in a strange way.
The reason why the other party made Dobby feel weird was because the house elf was wearing clothes.
A free house elf.
This was Dobby's first reaction when he saw the other party. House elves are not qualified to wear clothes.
The house elf was wearing clothes.
At least, that's how it seemed to Dobby.
However, Dobby was extremely surprised to learn that the other party was not a free house elf, but a house elf serving the wizarding family.
“The master thinks that Bit should be more decent, and these are not clothes.” The house elf named Bit replied to Dobby’s doubts.
bit.
The name of the house elf, as for its owner, Bit did not say, only that he was serving the extremely noble wizarding family.
What surprised Dobby even more was that Bit passed the password to him. Bit told Dobby that if he wanted to get rid of the Malfoy family, the opportunity would soon arise.
The famous savior Harry Potter is trying to get Dobby out of the control of the Malfoy family and gain his own freedom.
This news shocked Dobby beyond measure.
Harry Potter actually didn’t forget Dobby, and even tried to help him gain freedom.
At the Malfoy house, Dobby didn’t have many memories.
I really envy the house elf named Bit, who obviously serves a very noble wizarding family and has a very kind wizard master.
What if there was a good family and a house elf would long for freedom?
Dobby is no exception.
The opportunity for Bit said came faster than expected.
The next day, Dobby’s owner received a package from Harry Potter. After reading the letter and opening the package, Lucius Malfoy angrily threw the contents of the package to the ground.
According to Bit's words, Dobby caught the package immediately and took out a smelly sock that had not been washed for an unknown period of time. He completed the house elf expulsion ritual: the owner handed him a piece of clothing.
Freedom came so suddenly that Dobby was stunned!
The master threw the "clothes" to Dobby, and Dobby caught it, so Dobby was free!
There is no doubt that Dobby is free.
The anger on Lucius Malfoy's face froze. Looking at the excited house elf holding the smelly socks, his mind suddenly went blank.
Lucius Malfoy soon realized that the culprit behind his inexplicable loss of his servant was Harry Potter, who sent him a package.
I was actually cheated on by the other party!
Simply inexcusable.
The ferocious look on Lucius Malfoy's face was firmly reflected in Dobby's mind. Dobby escaped from that home because he was a free house elf and would no longer be bound by a magical contract!
Dobby took one last look at Malfoy Manor, then apparated and disappeared.
The first few days after gaining freedom were not good for Dobby.
He had nothing to do all day and was hungry, and he soon fell into the confusion and confusion of freedom.
“You should find yourself a job!” Dobby told himself.
Dobby likes freedom and also likes to work!
It's just that no wizard would give a house-elf a paying job.
Dobby was still willing to give it a try, so he went to the Leaky Cauldron. The Leaky Cauldron needed someone, and maybe he could find a job there.
Things are not looking good. Tom, the barkeeper, tells Dobby, "That's not the quality of a house elf."
Of course, if Dobby was willing to stay and help, he would welcome it, but he would not pay even a knut for it.
Just before Dobby was about to leave the Leaky Cauldron in disappointment, Tom called Dobby back.
Tell him that if Dobby can't find a job and is hungry, he can help out in the bar during the busiest time. He is willing to take Dobby in temporarily and provide Dobby with food and a temporary shelter until Dobby has a job, or wants to leave.
This also has the advantage of preventing Dobby from being arrested by the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures.
Dobby agreed!
Even though he couldn't get a Knut, Dobby knew that he had to find something to do for himself and fill his stomach. Anyway, he could leave at any time.
Dobby never gave up looking for a job during the time he stayed at the Leaky Cauldron, but there was no wizard willing to pay a house-elf.
Well, don’t talk about paying.
It would be difficult for a fired house-elf to find a new job.
Not to mention that this house elf still needs wages.
Dobby knows this very well.
He walked through the shops in Diagon Alley and had hit the wall several times. Some wizards would politely ask him to leave, while others would rudely drive him away.
“That’s not the quality of a house elf.”
This is the sentence Dobby has heard most these days.
As Tom, the owner of the Leaky Cauldron, told him, most wizards didn't want a paid house elf.
Actually, Dobby could see that Tom, the owner of the Leaky Cauldron, wanted it to stay, but he didn’t want to pay wages.
Dobby was not angry. He was grateful to Tom. Most wizards would be wary of a house elf who was expelled, let alone a house elf who wanted to wear clothes and get paid.
Dobby had hit his head so badly that it bled.
Whenever he mentioned that he wanted to be paid, most people would say "That's not the quality of a house elf."
Then, slam the door in front of Dobby!
Looking at the closed door in front of him, Dobby lowered his head in disappointment and walked away.
“Is it really that hard to find a paying job just because Dobby needs to be paid now?”
Dobby certainly knew that house elves were not paid for their work.
Dobby is now a free house elf.
Perhaps, the owner of bits will be willing to pay dobit wages.
Dobby had never seen such a special wizard. He wanted to believe it, but the other person already had a house elf in his family, so Dobby was not needed at all.
Perhaps Dobby can find another wizard who needs Dobby and is willing to pay.
Dobby was confident that he would be able to find a suitable job.
