Hogwarts Kryptonian - Chapter 275

c275 Goodbye

After hearing the story about Snape from Slughorn, Lu Yunkai was surprisingly honest that day.

Although the communication mirror was very lively, Nagini, Harry, Hermione, even Dumbledore, Lucius Malfoy and the Weasley twins all sent him messages, but he didn’t reply.

He stayed quietly beside Daphne.

Quietly looking at the notebook Snape gave him.

And Daphne leaned in his arms, holding a small wooden sculpture in her hand, fiddling with it, as if thinking about something, or in a daze.

Then from time to time, a sentence popped up.

“Tell me, how did Snape feel when he saw the girl he liked with another man for the first time?”

“Tell me, did Harry’s mother like Snape?”

“Tell me, how did Snape feel when he knew that the mysterious man killed Harry’s parents?”

“Tell me…”

And Lu Yunkai didn’t answer a word.

He didn’t know.

The notebook in his hand contained some notes on the attempts and study of various spells. Lu Yunkai opened the first page but didn’t read it.

Although the notes were not very difficult, he was thinking about what he had just heard in his mind.

Lu Yunkai was listening to and thinking about the questions raised by Daphne, but there was no answer.

He still remembered that he felt very uncomfortable when Harry alienated him because of Voldemort last year.

It was just a friend, let alone a girl he liked? Lu Yunkai really didn’t want to think that if one day Daphne…

Well, it won’t happen.

Lu Yunkai glanced at Daphne leaning in his arms, and his mood was somewhat calmer.

However, he still felt sorry for Snape.

How could a person as loyal as Snape be as cold and gloomy as he usually showed in school and in front of students?

How hard it must be for him to live!

Suddenly, Lu Yunkai remembered Snape’s earnest but reluctant advice a few years ago when he used Legilimency to learn from Hermione that he wanted to infiltrate Voldemort’s camp.

At that time, Lu Yunkai really couldn’t understand why Snape, who was obviously a double agent, would talk to him like that.

Now, Lu Yunkai finally understood.

The story about Snape is still incomplete, such as what kind of love and hatred between him and Harry’s mother, and how Harry’s parents were born… Lu Yunkai didn’t want to pursue it anymore.

Snape said that if you want to know something, use Legilimency on him.

Lu Yunkai won’t do that.

So, just pretend you don’t know.

…

When Lu Yunkai’s thoughts were stuck in Snape’s story, he completely let go of the things happening around the school that he didn’t intend to get involved in.

Watching the performance of the group of adult wizards, Lu Yunkai’s mentality was very peaceful.

The staff who came to Hogwarts to investigate under the order of the Ministry of Magic drove all the students back to their respective lounges, and then conducted a major inspection of the castle.

Such an inspection was carried out when Sirius escaped from prison a few years ago, and even more staff came at that time. No useful information was found at that time, but it does not mean that nothing can be found this time.

I don’t know which search officer had a flash of inspiration, or where he got the notice from, the passage from Honeydukes to Hogwarts was finally discovered.

Then this passage was completely sealed by several Ministry of Magic staff members who jointly cast a spell.

And a broken mirror was picked up in the passage. After inspection by the Ministry of Magic officials, it was determined that it once belonged to a Hogwarts student.

However, no specific conclusion was drawn as to who it was, or whether the mirror belonged to a junior who escaped from Hogwarts or a senior who escaped from Hogsmeade.

Of course, they didn’t have time to dwell on the mirror, because just as a group of Ministry of Magic staff were arguing with Hogwarts professors about whether to “call the inventor of the communication mirror to come out for identification”, several fights broke out around Hogwarts.

This group of staff, who originally came to Hogwarts to search for hidden underage wizards, became law enforcement officers of the Ministry of Magic after half a day of arguing and went to arbitrate.

This work attitude of “we are not here to do this kind of work, why should we meddle in other people’s business” is very Ministry of Magic. And when Kingsley first appeared at the battle scene outside the Hogwarts Castle, it had been nearly an hour since the battle broke out outside the castle.

Even the traces of the battle had been cleaned up at the scene, not to mention catching the suspects in the act.

So that night, although most of the Hogwarts students heard that several fierce wizard duels had taken place outside the castle that day, few people knew the results of those battles.

That night, almost all the lounges in the colleges were discussing this issue.

This curiosity ended with the prophet’s daily report that flew to Hogwarts with the owl at noon the next day.

Because the article published on it clearly informed everyone of the result of the battle in a way that was not obscure.

“Death Eaters intended to attack Ministry of Magic staff but were stopped by righteous people”

Coupled with the photo of Hogwarts bathed in the morning sunshine on the front page, it gives people the illusion that the darkness has dissipated and the sun will eventually return to the earth.

There is no need to say more about the outcome. Voldemort’s men obviously suffered a big loss in this battle.

In addition, at noon on Monday, when the report announcing Dumbledore’s first successful counterattack went viral in the auditorium, Lu Yunkai did not see the Carlo siblings in school.

The two brothers and sisters who had been jumping up and down in the past week, together with Snape who suddenly appeared and then left immediately in school on Sunday, left Hogwarts and never came back.

Of course, Snape is still the principal of Hogwarts, and the two wizards who disappeared all morning are still professors of the school, but these two guys are missing. For most students in the school , are all good things.

Although most people are still curious about their whereabouts…

“Don’t ask, I’m just asking because I’m on a business trip.”

When someone inquired about Lu Yunkai’s place, he would say this to every student who tried to make insinuations or directly ask questions with a straight face.

In fact, although Lu Yunkai was not involved in the battle outside Hogwarts Castle, he did know a lot of things: because someone reported the results to him.

Even, two people.

One, of course, is Nagini.

“The Carlo brothers and sisters screamed for more than an hour last night. They probably won’t be able to return to Hogwarts before Halloween. No wonder Tom is so angry. Of the thirteen people who went to Hogwarts this time, only one was considered a full body If they don’t take responsibility, who is responsible? Tom or Snape?”

Nagini said.

The other person who told him the result was Malfoy.

“Last night, there were a lot of sick people in the manor. The Carlo brothers and sisters were punished by the mysterious man and couldn’t get out of bed… Could something serious have happened?”

Malfoy, who disappeared all day on Sunday and was busy repairing the disappearing cabinet, grabbed Lu Yunkai who was going to have breakfast early in the morning and asked him in a voice full of anxiety.

“Don’t worry, the mysterious man can’t collapse so easily! Besides, the sky won’t fall on your head, so don’t worry. You’d better get the disappearing cabinet ready as soon as possible. After you hand in the job, the rest will follow. It’s okay for you.”

Lu Yunkai tried his best to comfort Malfoy.

But he didn’t know whether his comfort was of any use.

Anyway, for Malfoy, fixing the disappearing cabinet first will solve many problems. The advice Lu Yunkai gave him is indeed the best way to improve his current situation. Malfoy himself knows this.

So after hearing those few words from Lu Yunkai, he didn’t get too entangled, nodded, and left.

The news he received from Nagini and Malfoy convinced Lu Yunkai that Hogwarts could finally calm down for a few days, and his mood became much better.

In fact, it’s not just Lu Yunkai.

Although the Defense Against the Dark Arts and Muggle Studies classes were temporarily brought to a standstill due to the two professors leaving without saying goodbye, the atmosphere in the entire Hogwarts suddenly became joyful.

Without the two outsiders causing trouble, the school seemed to have suddenly returned to the relaxed and loving atmosphere before. Professor McGonagall, who has hardly smiled since the start of school this year, even told a joke in the Transfiguration class on Tuesday.

This relaxed mood was successfully passed on to all students.

But just when everyone was rejoicing that the dark clouds that had been hanging over Hogwarts for more than a month had finally dispersed, Lu Yunkai’s “little trouble” came.

He had been pushing him to go to the Room of Requirement to talk to Harry and the others face to face on the grounds that “Filch was staring at me every day”, but he finally couldn’t push it anymore.

…

“Are you at the door?”

“Here, did you see the tapestry?”

Lu Yunkai pointed behind him in the mirror.

At noon on Tuesday, Lu Yunkai stood there at the door of the Room of Requirement on the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle.

The huge wall in front of him suddenly began to have some lines, and then, it turned into a door.

The door opens.

Harry, whom he hadn’t seen for more than a month, smiled and waved to Lu Yun through the door.

Lu Yunkai put away the mirror he was talking on and walked in.

Inside is a huge space not much smaller than the auditorium. Twenty or thirty people were sitting or standing inside, gathering in twos and threes, and the buzzing sound echoed in the room.

The moment Lu Yunkai stepped into the room, his voice suddenly became quiet.

Everyone looked at Lu Yunkai.

The intense gaze made Lu Yunkai very embarrassed.

And the whole room stopped instantly as if a timer had been pressed.

Just when Lu Yunkai wanted to ask Harry if he shouldn’t have come, he didn’t know who it was, but he took the lead and clapped his hands.

Then, a huge round of applause broke out across the room.

Lu Yunkai was stunned.

This was the second time this year that he faced such general applause, but… he was still not used to it.

Beside him, Harry had a smile on his face and clapped his hands with a proud smile, which made Lu Yunkai a little embarrassed.

…
