Hogwarts Kryptonian

"Yunkai, are you here?"

"Um."

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

Daphne smiled and took the arm of Lu Yunkai who appeared from the fireplace.

In Greengrass's mansion, Lu Yunkai, who had long been accustomed to Floo powder travel, was no longer as disgraced as the first time he used it.

"Ah? How can this be so embarrassing...was it arranged by your father?"

"Yeah!" Daphne smiled happily, "By the way, you came just in time, we will have dinner in a while. Astoria has been pestering me these days asking why I didn't see you here, and whether I had a quarrel with you. ...It’s going to annoy me to death.”

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

"How could it be?! Ever since my father approved of you, she has not been the same as before." Daphne pouted with a look of disgust, "Especially after hearing that you may come from an ancient and mysterious magic family, I am so worried about you. You are extremely curious."

"Oh..." Lu Yun smiled and nodded.

That's good.

"By the way, I have already sent a letter to my father about what you asked me about, but he is on the other side of the ocean. No matter how fast the owl communication is, it will take three or four days. I won't tell you until I get back to school."

Daphne finally brought the topic down to business.

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

Faced with a wooden sculpture whose age was unclear and whether it had any magical blessings, Lu Yunkai thought about it and found that he could only conduct some inspections on the wooden sculpture like Balon had done with his ring.

After being "baptized" in Diagon Alley, Lu Yunkai realized that it was foolish not to rely solely on oneself to have connections. So he wrote a letter to Daphne, saying that he wanted to visit Daphne's father.

Who would have known that her father was really obsessed with archaeological exploration: he actually left his wife and children behind and ran across the ocean.

However, Daphne was very positive and said that she could write to ask her father for some commonly used spells that can identify cultural relics.

Lu Yunkai thinks this suggestion is good. After all, there are a lot of spells written in the book, but most of them are obscure and difficult to understand. It would be a very tiring job for Lu Yunkai to test them one by one on his own.

In addition, Daphne's reply because Lu Yunkai didn't come to see her during the entire Christmas vacation, her resentment almost turned into a shouting letter, so she was invited to Greengrass' house.

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

It’s faster than finding practical spells in books bit by bit!

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

"What's the inconvenience?"

Lu Yunkai smiled and took out the wooden sculpture from his bag 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 the ancient god of Egypt. A legendary symbol. Do you think this thing is an Egyptian artifact?”

"possible."

After Lu Yunkai heard what Daphne said, he finally understood the possible origin of this wood carving. But he still remembered that it was valuable. He had come across the stone tablet with the same symbol as his ring that Daphne's father brought back from the Middle East. It was not very valuable, either?

There must be something else weird about this wood carving.

"Actually, I think the easiest thing is to send this thing to an owl and show it to my dad." Daphne said with a smile, "He should be able to give you an accurate explanation. If you are not afraid that he will keep this thing from you. if……"

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

"No! If you are interested in these weird things like him in the future, what should I do?"

"That's not true. I'm only interested in money."

Lu Yun smiled and shook his head.

Lu Yunkai was no longer an outsider in the Greenglass family, so this dinner still felt like a homely meal.

Hai Lin welcomed Lu Yunkai's arrival very much. In addition, Astoria, who had previously been wary of Lu Yunkai "stealing" her sister, also gave up her resistance. The Greengrass family should be regarded as half of Lu Yunkai's family.

So naturally, he was invited to stay here for the night.

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

This is definitely not a bad thing for Lu Yunkai.

In addition, he has already researched almost all the information about the basilisk, and has even conceived a plan on how to find Ginny, hint her to release the basilisk, and then find a way to get rid of it himself. , so there is less need to be alone behind someone’s back.

And more importantly, just at dinner, Lu Yunkai learned from Hailin through insinuations that the Shafiq family, the original owners of his house, was once one of the few pure-blood families in the magical world, and this family was once the most powerful family in England. A famous supplier of magical materials...

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

But this also made him more determined to grow some herbs at home to cover 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’s better to wait until the right time and tell Daphne that he bought it from Mrs. Zabini with the money from selling the potion!

In this way, Lu Yunkai spent the last days of the Christmas vacation with the Greengrass family.

And this seemed to be a matter of course: when he and Daphne appeared on platform nine and three-quarters to return to school, neither Malfoy nor Blaise showed any surprise or curiosity.

Even Pansy naturally asked Lu Yunkai if 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 took the trouble to ask Lu Yunkai to spend Christmas at her house on the train back to London not long ago, but Lu Yunkai kept rejecting it with various strange reasons.

And Daphne herself seemed to have forgotten about this matter. She smiled and talked about some interesting things that happened during Christmas. She also looked at Lu Yunkai from time to time and asked him to agree with her. Naturally, just like Lu Yunkai had been saying all Christmas. As if spending time with her.

Lu Yunkai definitely didn't know that in Daphne's eyes, Lu Yunkai, who joked with his sister at home and deliberately 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 trying to cover up pain, but nervousness.

He wanted to challenge that person whose name the wizarding world didn't even dare to mention, and was nervous before avenging Chris.

But in the eyes of their colleagues, the two people behaved like they were cooking in others' mouths. Even usually, they never thought that Lu Yunkai and Daphne were hanging out instead of playing with the boys. "Very "Stupid" Malfoy, with a bit of sourness in his words.

However, the sourness is the sourness, and the laughter is the laughter. As a group of Slytherins who watched how the two of them got here, they didn't find it unacceptable.

Amidst the joyful chatting and laughing, the train arrived at Hogwarts, and everyone got off the train and came to the familiar horseless carriage.

"Pansy? You..."

Daphne, who naturally leaned next to Lu Yunkai, was a little surprised when she saw that her best friend had no intention of getting into a car with her.

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

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

"Pansy this is...Draco?"

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

"Obviously." Blaise sighed lightly.

I don’t know if he envies Malfoy or sympathizes 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 tried to persuade her a long time ago, but she still thinks I am too unreserved..." Daphne looked unhappy with her best friend's behavior, "Humph! I will definitely laugh at her tonight!"

"It's not necessary! I think it's true that you sympathize and help her." Lu Yunkai had a different opinion, "She will probably be very tired from getting along with Draco."

"That's true." Daphne laughed, remembering the way Malfoy always pulled things off and didn't notice anyone.

The three of them came to an empty carriage together and got into it.

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

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

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

His eyes were fixed on the empty reins where the carriage should have been hitched to the horse.

This weird look made the three people who were 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 does know 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 expressed her thoughts directly by greeting 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 Blais next to her with some embarrassment, and could only force herself to continue talking.

"Thestrals."

"……What?"

"The Thestral pulling the carriage." Luna pointed at the air.

"..."

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

She felt like she couldn't communicate with this girl! Is this girl out of her mind? Isn't this carriage powered by magic?

However.

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

"Yeah. Can't you all see?"

"It seems that you have talents that we don't have." Lu Yunkai reluctantly complimented you.

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

"..."

Lu Yunkai retreated in defeat.

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

"Have you never seen death?" Luna finally moved her eyes away from the so-called Yeqi and looked at Lu Yunkai, "So Ginny said that your soul-eating lynx is really not dead, is it true?"

"What??"

Lu Na's words suddenly stunned Lu Yunkai.
