He didn't know if Malfoy would pass through the Muggle prison, he only knew that he might be in some trouble now.
When he got home, he found that besides Narcissa and Lucius, there were two middle-aged men in uniform standing in the living room. The same thing was that all four had serious expressions.
"Baby, you're finally back. Nothing happened." Narcissa rushed over to hug him and patted him on the back after seeing that Malfoy was safe and sound. Then he whispered in Malfoy's ear, "Go upstairs and go to sleep, don't stay here."
"Don't protect him." Lucius' tone was colder than usual, and then he took out a few letters. "Look at him and see what he's messed up." Lucius threw the letter on the table.
Malfoy opened the letter, which said so.
Mr. Malfoy: We have received reports that you cast a Stunning Charm on a Muggle at a Muggle residence in Little Hangleton at 3:40 this afternoon.
You know that underage wizards are not allowed to use magic outside the school, and if you do so again, you may be expelled from the school (Law on the Reasonable Restraint of Underage Wizards, 1875, paragraph 3).
Also keep in mind that any magical activity that may attract the attention of non-members of the magical community (Muggles) is a serious offense under Section 13 of the International Confederation of Wizards' Statute of Secrecy.

"This is really a little trouble." Malfoy muttered.
"Little trouble?" Lucius' voice became louder. "Look again!" He growled, losing his usual elegance.
Malfoy then opened another letter.
It says:
Mr. Malfoy: We have received another report that at 4:30 this afternoon, you cast the Muggle Repelling Charm on an area at a Muggle residence in Little Hangleton.
You know that underage wizards are not allowed to use magic outside the school, and if you do so again, you may be expelled from the school (Law on the Reasonable Restraint of Underage Wizards, 1875, paragraph 3).
Also keep in mind that any magical activity that may attract the attention of non-members of the magical community (Muggles) is a serious offense under Section 13 of the International Confederation of Wizards' Statute of Secrecy.
Happy Holidays! Mafalda Hopkirk Ministry of Magic Forbidden Misuse of Magic Division.
The contents of the next few letters were the same, and they were all the same, except that the name of the spell was changed.
Last one:
"In view of your previous behavior, which has seriously violated the secrecy law of the International Federation of Wizards, we have decided to give you a severe punishment. According to what we have learned, your grades at Hogwarts seem to be very good. Professor Dumbledore Under the guarantee, we will not expel you, but we will confiscate your wand and return it at an optional time as a punishment."
"Your warning letter was sent to our family, and my baby didn't even see it." Narcissa defended Malfoy loudly.
"Calm down, ma'am." The taller wizard among the two said slowly.
"We are only following orders." Another wizard who was a little chunkier answered next to him.
"Hand over your wand." Lucius' voice grew darker.
"I think I'd like to cooperate with the Ministry of Magic." Malfoy nodded. Handed his wand to the tall and thin wizard.
"No!" Narcissa let out a high-pitched scream, obviously unable to accept the reality that her son was being punished.
The faces of the two wizards from the Ministry of Magic couldn't help showing a look of surprise. Obviously they have experienced many battles, and they have seen a lot of little wizards who use magic outside the school, but when they are really punished, it is definitely not easy for the little guy to cry, and there are not a few who cry loudly. Most of them are absolutely clenched tightly. It was the first time they met such a calm little wizard today, so they couldn't help being surprised.
"It's amazingly calm." The two praised at the same time. "I believe the accident was just a small misunderstanding."
"We'll explain the situation to our superiors," said the dumpy wizard. Obviously, today's matter was resolved very easily, so he couldn't help feeling a little bit fond of Malfoy, and even wondered if he really made a mistake, how could such a well-behaved child break the law.
"Thank you very much." Lucius nodded to them.
"Okay, we have to go back and return, it's getting late." The tall and thin wizard said.
"Stay here and have something to eat, there are prepared desserts here." Narcissa seemed to be making the last effort, trying to please them as much as possible, hoping to reduce the punishment.
"Madam, thank you for your kindness, but we are also very busy." The tall and thin wizard rejected the proposal.
Then the two of them walked out of Malfoy's house. They should have used apparition, their bodies gradually became transparent, and finally disappeared into the void.
"Lucius!" Narcissa yelled at Lucius, obviously wanting to vent her dissatisfaction.
"Oh, Narcissa, calm down." Unlike the cold and serious tone just now, Lucius looked very relaxed now.
"You told me to calm down? Our son was almost expelled! Those two guys even took away the wand, how can you tell me to calm down." Now Narcissa looks a little hysterical, no matter what mother should hear that her child was almost expelled from school It's all this reaction.
"Don't worry." Lucius said softly, "You have to learn this from our son, you can see how calm he is." He glanced at Malfoy as he spoke, and he saw Malfoy standing silently by the table, His expression was relaxed and he was not affected in any way.
He continued to say lightly: "When the Ministry of Magic handles affairs, everyone should show some face. On the surface, it is business-like, and everyone looks good. As for the letter." Lucius seemed to sneer. "Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic are not on the right track. Maybe the more he pleads, the more the Ministry of Magic wants to disgust him. They really fired him. They must have not told the old man about it."
"As for the wand, well, I think I just had dinner with him a few days ago, sponsorship is not so easy to get." Lucius seemed to remember something.
"Who is he?" Narcissa asked.
"The immediate bosses of those two guys just now are desperately looking for investment for a campaign fund." Lucius said with a smile.
"Oh." Narcissa seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and slumped on the chair, as if completely relieved. Lucius had made it clear enough.
"I'm also a person with a background." Seeing this, Malfoy was already mentally prepared. Judging by Lucius' extremely defensive personality, what he did just now should be a play on the spot.
"What's more, the little guys in our family can almost cast spells without a stick." Lucius patted Malfoy on the shoulder, showing a proud expression.
"Let's not talk about those things, let's talk about other things." Lucius diverted from this seemingly unpleasant topic.
"How did you torture that Muggle? The Petrification Curse? Well, the letter just said that you used a Stunning Charm." Lucius was obviously more interested in this. "To torture Muggles, how can you put a stun spell on him? Then he won't feel the pain and fear. You should..." Then Lucius began to talk about how he tortured Muggles back then Yes, and began to "teach by example" to Malfoy.
Then he said in an admiring tone: "Finally, it is quite good to expel the Muggles at the scene, so that the Muggles can avoid the scene. It is very prudent." He patted Malfoy on the shoulder encouragingly, and said: "Really He is indeed my son of Lucius."
"Okay, stop talking about your nonsense." Narcissa interrupted Lucius, her mood improved a lot, and her tone became lighter. "Baby, you must be exhausted today, and you have to go back to school tomorrow, go to bed, you have to get up early."
"Okay, my lord mother." Malfoy was pardoned, he was obviously not interested in those torture "tortures", turned and walked to his room.
"I haven't told him the Unforgivable Curse yet." Lucius patted his head angrily, watching Malfoy go back to the room, Lucius' mood also fell.
"Do you want our son to visit Azkaban?"
"No no no." Lucius quickly denied. "I won't say it, I won't say it." Then he laughed twice in embarrassment.
"It's just an introduction, and I won't teach him." Lucius muttered.
"What did you say?"
"It's nothing." Lucius spread his hands to show his innocence.
As night fell, there was silence in Malfoy Manor, and there was nothing to say all night.
