Hogwarts Kryptonian

Chapter 36 Seeking wealth in danger

"professor."

Lu Yunkai looked at the three people who were hurriedly coming, and finally let go of his worries, and said hello in a voice that was already hoarse from laughter.

"Lu Yunkai? Are you okay?" Professor McGonagall looked at Lu Yunkai worriedly and asked.

"I'm fine, it's just..." Lu Yunkai glanced at the crystal sand on the ground, "The magic stone was destroyed."

"Destroyed, but not in the hands of Voldemort, right?"

Dumbledore asked Lu Yunkai.

"...Yeah." Lu Yunkai nodded.

He didn't dare look at Dumbledore.

He was very afraid of this old man with a white beard.

"Severus, take Lu Yunkai and leave first." Dumbledore didn't seem to pursue Lu Yunkai's idea of ​​destroying the Sorcerer's Stone. "Professor McGonagall, take Harry to Madam Pomfrey to check. "

"Yes." The two professors nodded, and then each took their students and walked out of the room.

Dumbledore was left standing there.

****

"I'm sorry, Professor Snape, I seem to be in trouble."

In the underground Potions classroom, Lu Yunkai followed Snape with a guilty expression on his face.

On the way back from the underground room, Lu Yunkai didn't even see Snape's expression. The gloomy professor seemed very angry.

"Did Harry drink the answer potion?"

Snape sat on the chair in the room, looked at Lu Yunkai, and asked directly.

"Yes. Hermione solved the problem before I arrived."

"Then how did you get in?"

"I...have this." Lu Yunkai raised his hand.

It still has the fire-proof ring on it.

"What is this?" Snape frowned, staring at the ring.

It seemed that he couldn't believe that a ring could compete with the fire door he had set.

"When I was living in the Leaky Cauldron, I bought it from a wandering wizard for three hundred gold galleons. It was said to be able to ward off fire. The situation was a bit urgent at the time, so I rushed in without thinking too much."

Lu Yunkai now made up a story.

"May I see it?"

"certainly!"

Lu Yunkai took off the ring and handed it to Snape.

Snape looked at the ring for a while, then gave it back to Lu Yunkai.

"Your luck is really good. But people can't live on luck all the time. Taking risks is not a good character. If it weren't for your father, I would kick you out of Slytherin today. You are stupid today. It’s like a Gryffindor!”

"You weren't there at the time, and neither was Professor Dumbledore. Because of Professor Dumbledore's magic, I couldn't explain to Professor McGonagall what happened. Moreover, the situation was urgent, so I wanted to stop Harry and the others..."

"That's no reason for you to put yourself in danger." Snape interrupted Lu Yunkai.

"But Harry..."

"Harry has a protective spell on him, do you? Harry is under the care of Professor Dumbledore, will he take care of you? Harry is the prophesied savior, are you?"

"..."

Snape's three consecutive questions left Lu Yunkai speechless.

"You are different from Harry. He has been destined to live an extraordinary life since he was born. That is his blessing and his sorrow. Why are you getting involved?" Snape continued to ask, "You Just be honest like Draco, like every Slytherin student, and do what you have to do, isn't it?"

"...I'm sorry, professor." Lu Yunkai lowered his head.

He couldn't refute Snape's words. Because he understood that Snape was thinking about him from the bottom of his heart when he said such things to him.

This man who looks like an obsidian stone doesn't seem to be as ruthless as he appears!

"Have you never thought about why I want to teach you Occlumency? Why would Professor McGonagall teach a first-year student to learn Agmanis?" Snape saw that Lu Yunkai's attitude of admitting his mistake was correct, and his tone changed slightly, "Obviously your potion making skills have surpassed most of the students in fourth grade or even fifth and sixth grade who got excellent results in the OWLS exam. Why should I let you keep making potions over and over again, and even encourage Flint and the others? Want you to help them make potions?"

"Could it be..."

Lu Yunkai has always had some doubts about these things.

Why did Snape teach him Occlumency? Ordinarily, this kind of dark magic defense spell is not even included in the teaching content of Hogwarts. Even if Lu Yunkai is curious, it is not the turn of a potions professor like Snape to teach him!

Moreover, Lu Yunkai didn't even understand it well before. He just approached Professor McGonagall out of curiosity and wanted to ask about Agmanis, but Professor McGonagall actually agreed to teach him.

Although Lu Yunkai always felt flattered, he really couldn't think of a reason. He could only simply think that it was his good luck. The two professors just appreciated his performance in transfiguration and potions.

Now it seems that it should be Snape...oh, no! It may even be that Dumbledore wanted Lu Yunkai to stay away from Harry, so he asked Snape and McGonagall to provide extracurricular tutoring so that Lu Yunkai would not have time to interact with Harry.

Then connect it to what Dumbledore said to himself in the room with the mirror.

This is the truth.

"You are the student I have admired most over the years. I don't want to see you die in front of Harry." Snape gave Lu Yunkai a deep look and said, "Stay away from him."

"Thank you, Professor." Seeing that Snape had told him something he shouldn't know, Lu Yunkai mustered up the courage to answer a question that arose in front of the table with potions today: "Can I ask one more thing?"

"What?"

"Is everything this time...all under Professor Dumbledore's control? Well, except for my accident?"

Lu Yunkai looked straight at Snape.

When he saw Hermione's attitude of trying to answer questions, he really thought Hermione was ridiculous and childish, but when he looked at the parchment left by Snape, he had doubts.

No one would write the location of their house keys on their door, let alone a place that protects a treasure like the Philosopher's Stone? It is almost clear that it is waiting for someone to crack it and pass it.

Recall that the three first-year students passed through the barriers set up by several professors at Hogwarts to protect the priceless magic stone, and finally came to Voldemort.

Why do they? ?

Unless the people who set these levels thought from the beginning that someone could break through.

For example, the key to flying was tailor-made for Harry, who was good at flying.

There is also Ron, who is a good wizard chess player, and Hermione, whose logical thinking ability is far beyond that of her peers.

Finally, only one person is allowed into the hall of mirrors.

Lu Yunkai even thought of that mirror. Dumbledore stood in that room for a long time, and then immediately moved to the hall after being seen by Harry.

Although Lu Yunkai didn't know why the mirror appeared there, it was obviously related to the magic stone that appeared at the end.

Even when Quirrell touched Harry's body, it began to break apart.

This seemed to be a stage prepared for Harry. No matter Hermione, Ron, or even himself, it would not affect Harry's ability to face the final enemy, the guy who grows on the back of other people's heads.

Then defeat him.

Lu Yunkai didn't believe that all this was just a coincidence, but he was not willing to believe that Dumbledore had done so many things.

What does Dumbledore want? Therefore, Lu Yunkai wanted to ask Snape for an answer.

Snape was stunned for a moment and then smiled.

"Fortunately, I didn't have the urge to teach you Legilimency that day."

"...You don't want to answer me? Or can't you answer me?"

"You know." Snape smiled and shook his head.

"In this case...then I think I still can't abandon my friends." Lu Yunkai withdrew his gaze and looked at his fingers.

"……Why?"

"When Harry was captured by...the mysterious man, he threw the magic stone in his pocket to me the moment he saw me." Lu Yunkai had a serious expression on his face, "He didn't even have time to think about it at the time, it was just instinct. I don’t want to lose this kind of friend who believes that I can protect him from the mysterious man.”

"Harry has protection."

"But if someone wants to put him into a dangerous situation and then save him, problems will arise sooner or later. He needs real friends, the kind who won't plot against him." Lu Yunkai said with something in mind.

"...But this would be very dangerous. Just like this time, if you hadn't arrived there later than Harry, believe me, Quirrell would have killed you first, and then asked Harry to find a way to get the Philosopher's Stone." The smile on Nap's face dropped.

"Not everyone in this world will do things according to the most beneficial principle. We are humans, not machines." Lu Yunkai shook his head firmly, "Of course, I will not cause trouble for myself, but if he is in danger, please ask for my help. I will never stand idly by.”

"Even if you put yourself in danger?"

"I will try my best to stay calm and protect myself." Lu Yunkai shook the ring in his hand.

"I hope so. Don't let that reckless, impulsive, arrogant and ignorant guy ruin you." The smile on Snape's face finally completely disappeared, "It's not worth it for him."

"I understand." Lu Yunkai replied noncommittally.

"Okay, you go back to the dormitory. What happened in the dungeon..."

"Of course I won't tell anyone, don't worry." Lu Yunkai smiled and nodded, then turned and walked out of Snape's office.

The door closes behind you.

A smile appeared at the corner of Lu Yunkai's mouth.

"This seems to be the first time I've seen Snape smile, right? But...it's true that his smile doesn't look very good either."

While muttering, Lu Yunkai hummed a song and walked towards the dormitory.

He was in a good mood.

The reason is naturally because of the balance displayed by the system ghost.

Ten digits! !

This time, I really made a fortune!
