Hogwarts Kryptonian

Chapter 83 Plans and Changes

"Yunkai, you're here?"

"Yes."

"Actually, you don't need to send a letter in advance to say hello! Our fireplace allows you to come at any time!"

Daphne smiled and took Lu Yunkai's arm as he emerged from the fireplace.

In Greengrass's mansion, Lu Yunkai, who had long been accustomed to traveling with Floo powder, was no longer as dusty as when he first used it.

"Ah? How can I be so embarrassed... Was it arranged by your father?"

"Yeah!" Daphne smiled happily, "By the way, you came just in time, we'll have dinner soon. Astoria has been pestering me these days, asking why you didn't come, whether I had a quarrel with you... It's annoying me to death."

"She cares so much, does she want me to stay away from you?"

"How could that be!! Since my father recognized you, she has long been different from before." Daphne pouted with a look of disgust, "Especially after hearing that you might come from an ancient and mysterious magic family, she is extremely curious about you."

"Oh..." Lu Yunkai smiled and nodded.

That's good.

"By the way, I have sent a letter to my father about what you asked me, but he is on the other side of the ocean, and even if the owl communication is fast, it will take three or four days. I may not tell you until I return to school."

Daphne finally got to the point.

This is the main reason why Lu Yunkai came to visit Greengrass's house this time.

Facing a wood carving whose age was unclear and whether it had any magical blessing, Lu Yunkai thought about it and found that he could only examine the wood carving like Baron checked his ring.

After the "baptism" of Diagon Alley, Lu Yunkai realized that it was a foolish act to have connections without relying on himself. So he wrote a letter to Daphne, saying that he wanted to visit Daphne's father.

Who knew that her father really had a special liking for archaeological exploration: he actually left his wife and children behind and ran across the ocean again.

However, Daphne actively said that she could write to ask her father if there were any commonly used spells that could identify cultural relics.

Lu Yunkai thought this suggestion was not bad. After all, there were a lot of spells written in the book, but most of them were obscure and difficult to understand. If Lu Yunkai really wanted to test them one by one, it would be a very tiring job.

In addition, Daphne's reply was almost a roaring letter because Lu Yunkai didn't come to see her during the entire Christmas holiday, so she accepted the invitation and came to Greengrass's house.

"It's okay, no rush." ​​Lu Yunkai smiled and nodded.

It's faster than him looking for practical spells in the book bit by bit!

"Is it convenient for me to see what you want to check?" Daphne asked curiously.

"What's inconvenient!!"

Lu Yunkai took the wood carving out of his bag with a smile and handed it to Daphne.

"Isn't this the Eye of Horus?" Daphne looked at the big eye on the wood carving and said with some surprise, "This thing is very common!"

"... Do you know this?"

"Well, it's a bit similar to what my father dug out from the Middle East before, so I know." Daphne nodded and pointed to the big eye on the wood carving, "This eye is the Eye of Horus, which seems to be a symbol of the legend of the ancient Egyptian gods. Do you think this thing is an Egyptian artifact?"

"It's possible."

After listening to Daphne's words, Lu Yunkai understood the possible origin of the wood carving. But he still remembered that the stone tablet with the same symbol as his ring that Daphne's father brought back from the Middle East was not worth much, right?

There should be something else strange about this wood carving.

"Actually, I think the easiest thing is to have an owl deliver this thing to my father." Daphne said with a smile, "He should be able to give you an accurate explanation. If you are not afraid that he will embezzle your thing..."

"I can definitely trust your father, but I don't trust the owl." Lu Yunkai smiled and shook his head, "And if he can teach me some spells, wouldn't that be better?"

"Don't!! What if you are interested in these weird things like him in the future, what should I do?"

"That won't happen. I'm only interested in money."

Lu Yunkai smiled and shook his head.

In the Greengrass family, Lu Yunkai is no longer an outsider, so this dinner still feels like home.

Hailin welcomes Lu Yunkai's arrival very much, and Astoria, who was previously on guard against Lu Yunkai "stealing" her sister, has also given up resistance. The Greengrass family should be considered half of Lu Yunkai's home.

So naturally, he was also invited to stay here overnight.

It was Astoria who made this invitation. After Daphne and Lu Yunkai returned to school, she seemed to have heard something from her father, so her attitude towards Lu Yunkai changed dramatically.

This is definitely not a bad thing for Lu Yunkai.

In addition, he has almost finished looking up the information about the basilisk, and even has a plan of how to find Ginny, hint her to release the basilisk, and then find a way to get rid of it, so there is no need to be alone in secret.

And more importantly, Lu Yunkai learned from Helin through indirect inquiries at dinner that the original owner of his house, the Shafik family, was once one of the most pure-blood families in the magic world, and this family was once the most famous supplier of magic materials in England...

Well, Lu Yunkai finally understood what the huge yard at home was used for.

However, this also made him more determined to grow some herbs at home to cover up the system.

However, after learning the background of this house, Lu Yunkai felt that telling Daphne that this house already belonged to him might cause some unnecessary trouble.

It would be better to wait for the right time to tell Daphne that he bought it from Mrs. Zabini with the money from selling potions!

In this way, Lu Yunkai spent the last time of the Christmas holiday with the Greengrass family.

And it seemed that this was just a matter of course: when he and Daphne appeared at Platform 9 3/4 to return to school, Malfoy, Blaise and the others were not surprised or curious.

Even Pansy asked Lu Yunkai naturally whether the Christmas gift Mrs. Greengrass gave him was the same as the one she gave to Daphne...

They all seemed to have selectively forgotten how Daphne had repeatedly asked Lu Yunkai to spend Christmas at her house on the train back to London not long ago, but was rejected by Lu Yunkai with various strange reasons.

Daphne herself seemed to have forgotten about this matter. She smiled and talked about some interesting things that happened during Christmas. She looked at Lu Yunkai from time to time, asking him to agree with her, as if Lu Yunkai had been with her all Christmas.

Lu Yunkai certainly didn't know that in Daphne's eyes, Lu Yunkai, who joked with his sister at home and laughed loudly with his classmates on the train, was just suppressing the pain of losing Chris in his heart.

Although it seemed that she was not wrong, Daphne didn't know that Lu Yunkai's smile at this time was not to cover up the pain, but the tension.

He wanted to challenge the person who dared not even mention the name of the magic world, and the tension before revenge for Chris.

But the performance of the two fell into the eyes of the people who were traveling with them, and they were completely cooking in other people's mouths. Even Malfoy, who never thought that Lu Yunkai and Daphne were together, and chose to play "very stupid" with boys, spoke with a little sourness.

But no matter how sour or funny it was, as a group of Slytherins who had watched how the two of them got to where they are now, they didn't think it was unacceptable.

Amidst the happy conversation, the train arrived at Hogwarts, and everyone got off the train and came to the familiar horseless carriage.

"Pansy? You..."

Daphne, who leaned against Lu Yunkai naturally, was a little surprised to see that her best friend didn't want to get on the same carriage with her.

"Yeah." Pansy smiled at Daphne, but ran to another carriage naturally.

In that carriage sat Malfoy and his two followers...

"Pansy, is this... Draco?"

Lu Yunkai looked at Pansy, who took the initiative to sit next to Malfoy and talked to him with a smile, and was a little stunned.

"Obviously." Blaise sighed softly on the side.

I don't know if he is envious of Malfoy or sympathizing with him...

"She has liked Draco since the first grade, but she has never dared to take the initiative to express her feelings. I have advised her a long time ago, but she still thinks I am too unreserved..." Daphne was unhappy with her bestie's behavior, "Humph! I will definitely make fun of her tonight!"

"No need! I think you should sympathize with her and help her more." Lu Yunkai had a different opinion, "She will probably be very tired to get along with Draco."

"That's right." Thinking of Malfoy's always arrogant look, who didn't care about anyone, Daphne laughed.

The three of them came to an empty carriage and got on the carriage.

After waiting for a while, the little passengers on the special express train found their seats one after another.

Just when Lu Yunkai and others thought that no one would get on the two cars, a small girl with white curly hair jumped on the car lightly.

Without saying hello to the other three people in the car, she naturally sat in the empty seat next to Blaise.

His eyes were fixed on the empty reins of the carriage, which should have been attached to the horse.

This strange look made the three people who were originally talking and laughing suddenly quiet down.

Lu Yunkai looked at the girl with white hair and big eyes sitting opposite him, feeling a little embarrassed.

He knew this girl, but...

Is it convenient to say hello to her?

He glanced at Daphne beside him.

"Luna! Hello!" Daphne seemed to have noticed that Lu Yunkai was looking at her, and directly expressed her thoughts by saying hello to the girl.

"Hello, Daphne!" Luna's eyes were still looking at the air, but she still answered politely.

"What are you looking at?" Daphne glanced at Lu Yunkai and Blaise next to her with some embarrassment, and could only force herself to continue talking.

"Yeti."

"... What?"

"Yeti pulling the carriage." Luna pointed to the air.

"..."

Daphne looked at Lu Yunkai with some frustration and shook her head.

She felt that she couldn't communicate with this girl! Is this girl crazy? Isn't this carriage powered by magic?

However.

"Can you see the creature pulling the carriage?" Lu Yunkai could only continue to speak for Daphne.

"Well. Can't you see it?"

"It seems that you have a talent that we don't have." Lu Yunkai reluctantly praised.

"This is not a talent. Only those who have seen death can see the Thestrals." Luna shook her head, "Rather than a talent, it's more of a curse."

"..."

Lu Yunkai retreated.

This girl is really... hard to communicate with! !

"Haven't you seen death?" Luna's eyes finally moved down from the so-called Thestrals and looked at Lu Yunkai, "So what Ginny said about your Soul Devouring Lynx really not dying, is it true?"

"What??"

Luna's words stunned Lu Yunkai for a moment.
