Hogwarts Kryptonian - Chapter 297
c297 Task
“Why are you here?”
“I came to see if you are satisfied with your living conditions.”
“Hmph.”
Bellatrix looked at Lu Yunkai with disgust and turned away without paying any attention to her.
Lu Yunkai sat down in the room with a smile on his face.
On the coast of Dover, Bellatrix’s room had a window overlooking the English Channel. Lu Yunkai looked around.
“I think this condition is pretty good. You can stay here peacefully.”
Lu Yunkai was very satisfied with his house, and he was full of self-praise.
Bellatrix deliberately ignored Lu Yunkai and sat there in a daze.
The atmosphere in the room was very stiff.
Seeing the crazy woman’s attitude, Lu Yunkai knew that no matter what he said, she would not listen to him, so he gave up completely, stood up and left the room directly.
Of course, before leaving, he did not forget to remind Bellatrix that if she needed anything for food, clothing, and shelter, she could ask Shirley to give it to her, but she should not think about escaping from this room.
This also earned Bellatrix’s eye roll.
But Lu Yunkai certainly didn’t mind.
He walked out of the room calmly.
Daphne, who was standing outside the door, saw Lu Yunkai coming out and helped him up again.
“I really don’t know why you still came to see her. Don’t you know that she treats you as an enemy?”
Daphne nags Lu Yunkai in a low voice.
“I have something to do.” Lu Yunkai smiled at Daphne, and then said to Chris who followed him out: “What, did you find it?”
“Meow. No.” Chris shook her head.
“Anyway, I’ll leave it to you. When you find it, we’ll make the next arrangements.”
“Okay.” Chris nodded.
Although she didn’t understand what Chris was saying, Daphne still heard something from Lu Yunkai’s words.
“What did you ask Chris to do?”
“Oh, I asked her to help me get a piece of Bellatrix’s hair.”
“Ah? What are you going to do?”
“Of course it’s useful.” Lu Yunkai smiled, “Let’s go, I should go back to my room to rest.”
“…Oh.” Daphne was a little confused, but she still helped Lu Yunkai obediently and went all the way back to his room.
But just as she sat down, Shirley’s little figure appeared in front of her.
Daphne, who was just nagging about seeing Pansy who came to ask about her at the door of the principal’s office at school, was startled.
“Master, I just heard that you need Bellatrix’s hair?”
Shirley’s words were a little scared, as if she was a little nervous because she eavesdropped on Lu Yunkai’s words.
“Well. Why… Oh! Right! It’s more convenient for you to get it than for Chris to get it.”
Lu Yunkai patted his head.
Shirley is responsible for cleaning her room!
“I just got a few of her hairs that fell in the room today.” Xueli held them in her hands and handed them to Lu Yunkai.
“…Thank you for your hard work.” Lu Yunkai took the hair with appreciation.
“This is what I should do.” Xueli nodded with a red face, and then a figure flashed and disappeared.
“What do you want to do with this hair?” Daphne looked at Lu Yunkai carefully putting the few hairs into a small potion bottle, with a strange expression.
“It will be useful later.” Lu Yunkai smiled at Daphne, and then took out the communication mirror from the space bag.
Point the wand in his hand.
After a while.
…
“Have you been living in this tent recently?”
Beside an unnamed valley in Scotland.
In the sparse woods, a small brown tent does not look very eye-catching.
“Yeah.” Hermione, standing outside the tent, had a complicated expression on her face. “You…are you not feeling well?”
“Is it okay?” Lu Yunkai glanced at Daphne who was supporting him, “Thank you for your hard work, Daphne.”
“Come in and sit down.” Hermione lifted the curtain of the tent behind her.
Lu Yunkai walked into the tent with the help of Daphne.
Suddenly, the scene in front of him became clear. A room of more than ten square meters opened up in front of Lu Yunkai.
Although the decoration in the room was simple, it had everything, including tables, chairs and lighting, and it was comfortable and warm.
Lu Yunkai chose a chair and sat down.
After waiting for a while, Hermione walked into the tent. Lu Yunkai knew that she should have gone to make up various protective spells.
“Where are the two of them?” Lu Yunkai asked, looking at Hermione who was sitting opposite him with a gloomy expression on her face.
“They are both in a bad mood, so…” Hermione pointed to two rooms separated by curtains.
“Yeah.”
Lu Yunkai was also a little silent.
For a long time.
“Go and call Harry out.” Lu Yunkai let out a long sigh, “Some things still need to be done.”
“… Then Ron…”
“Ron… leave him alone.” Lu Yunkai shook his head helplessly.
“Okay.” Hermione sighed, stood up, and walked behind a curtain.
After a while.
“Yunkai, you’re here?”
“Are you okay?”
“Nothing. Just… um.”
“… um.”
The two fell into silence for a while.
Hermione, who came out with Harry, looked at the two of them in silence and said nothing. She just found a stool and sat down quietly.
The tent was quiet for several minutes.
“Is Voldemort dead too?” Harry finally started to speak.
“The Horcrux is still there, he can’t die.” Lu Yunkai shook his head, “We all know.”
“So you came to us to talk about the Horcrux?” Harry continued to ask.
“Well. Although Voldemort is not dead yet, this time should be a serious blow to him.” Lu Yunkai nodded, “It should take a long time for him to recover. And this period of time is our best opportunity to destroy his Horcruxes. The more Horcruxes he destroys, the lower the possibility of his coming back.”
“Yunkai is right. We must make good use of this time.” Hermione tried to interrupt.
She gave Lu Yunkai a look.
Lu Yunkai nodded.
Obviously, Hermione had mentioned this to Harry before Lu Yunkai came, but she might not have convinced Harry who was in a state of loss.
“Well, I understand. It’s just…” Harry shook his head, “I don’t know what else we can do. The previous plan is all over.”
“Plan? What plan did you have before?” Lu Yunkai asked.
“Last month, we sneaked into the Ministry of Magic and happened to meet a man named Rookwood from the Department of Mysteries.” Hermione sighed helplessly and said in detail: “We know he is a Death Eater, so we used a little trick to learn from him that Bellatrix is now at the Malfoy family, so… we are planning how to arrange it so that we can enter the Malfoy family.”
“…To steal something?” Lu Yunkai’s expression was a little strange.
“Well. Harry went to Gringotts before and tried it. To enter the private vault, identity verification is required.” Hermione sighed, “The most commonly used identity verification in Gringotts is the wand. So if you want to enter the Lestrange family vault, you need her wand.”
“Your plan is pretty good!” Lu Yunkai nodded, and sure enough, Hermione thought of the same thing as him.
When he came today, he brought Bellatrix’s hair and wand with him, thinking that the three of them would use Polyjuice Potion and hold their wands to enter Gringotts.
But after Hermione said that…
Lu Yunkai suddenly felt that it would be more appropriate for him to pretend that he had not thought of it.
“I contacted you several times last week, just to ask if you knew where the Malfoy family was, so that we could sneak in and steal things… But today… Bellatrix should have died in Nurmengard, right?” Hermione glanced at Harry and sighed helplessly, “We have to find out who inherited her wand now. I may have to trouble you to check with your Ministry of Magic.”
“Inheritance has nothing to do with the Ministry of Magic. They can’t collect inheritance tax.” Lu Yunkai corrected Hermione’s cognition that was biased towards the Muggle world, “And… Bellatrix is still alive.”
“… What??” Hermione Stunned, “She didn’t go to Nurmengard with me?”
“Well, I don’t know why, but she didn’t go.” Lu Yunkai glanced at Daphne who was about to speak, and signaled her with his eyes not to say anything, “But… this is not a bad thing for us.”
“Then do you know where the Malfoy family is? Let’s go and try to steal it…”
“The Malfoy family is also a magical family that has been passed down for many years. Like the Black family, not everyone can enter their castle.” Lu Yunkai shook his head, “Even if I tell you the place, you can’t get in.”
“What should I do?” Hermione glanced at Harry and sighed.
“I’ll think of a way.” Lu Yunkai sighed softly.
“Well.” Hermione nodded, “Do you have a way?”
“I can arrange for Chris to try.”
“Then it’s better to hurry up. I’m worried that after Voldemort dies, Bellatrix will move the gold cup.” Hermione didn’t bother to be polite with Lu Yunkai, and said it very straightforwardly.
“I’ll do it as soon as possible.” Lu Yunkai nodded, “Actually, there’s no need to rush. Dumbledore is dead, the Order of the Phoenix is completely paralyzed, Voldemort is dead, and the Death Eaters are the same. Bellatrix’s condition won’t be much better than Harry’s.”
“Yunkai, is Dumbledore really dead? Is it possible that he is just injured, or…”
“…”
Lu Yunkai looked at Harry and didn’t speak.
Harry’s voice disappeared as he spoke.
He also realized that it seemed unlikely…
“Since Dumbledore is gone, let’s do something for him in the end and destroy Voldemort.” Lu Yunkai said to Harry in an encouraging tone, “This time, completely destroy him.”
“…Yeah.” Harry took a deep breath and nodded.
“By the way, Yunkai, what exactly happened in Nurmengard?” Hermione saw that Harry seemed to have finally cheered up a little, and finally dared to ask about this topic that she had been curious about for a long time.
“…I went to find Grindelwald for some reason, Voldemort led the Death Eaters to attack me, and Dumbledore brought people from the Order of the Phoenix…”
“So!! It’s because of you!! If it weren’t for you, my parents wouldn’t have died!!”
Suddenly, Ron rushed out from behind the curtain, pointed at Lu Yunkai, and said angrily.
Silence.
“If thinking this way makes you feel better, then think this way.” Lu Yunkai decided not to argue with Ron and continued, “The two sides were confronting each other. Dumbledore and Voldemort both wanted to win over Grindelwald to help them deal with each other. Grindelwald felt that he was looked down upon by the two and was very angry, so he used a curse of burning both sides and destroyed Nurmengard.”
“…Then how did you survive?” Harry asked awkwardly.
“Do you remember the substitute doll I gave you before? I still have one in my hand.” Lu Yunkai said simply, “That thing saved my life. In addition, I have a fireproof ring, which may have played a role.”
As he said, Lu Yunkai showed the ring on his hand.
“This… Have I seen it before?” Hermione seemed to have an impression. “The ring you used to break through the fire gate set up by Snape in the first grade?”
“Well, in addition… well, there is also a pendant.” Lu Yunkai hesitated for a moment and did not tell the story of the destroyed shield. He could only make up a non-existent necklace, “It also has a protective function.”
“You have so many things on you!” Ron looked at Lu Yunkai fiercely.
“It’s just buying life.” Lu Yunkai shook his head, still not intending to confront Ron head-on.
He also reached out and patted Daphne’s shoulder, who was a little indignant about Ron’s words, and signaled her not to argue with Ron.
“Ron!! It’s not Lu Yunkai who wants to do this!!” Hermione on the side finally couldn’t stand it, “Is it useful for you to blame him so much?”
“He went to see a dark demon like Grindelwald for no reason…”
“Do you think it’s not dangerous for him to go to see Grindelwald for no reason?? Isn’t it to defeat Voldemort?” Hermione interrupted Ron angrily.
She was really angry.
Lu Yunkai’s injuries haven’t healed completely yet, but he’s busy dealing with Voldemort. It’s not like Voldemort is dead now, but the enemy is still there! Even if you want to fight among yourself, can’t you wait until the enemy is eliminated?
“Bellatrix’s wand and hair, right?” Lu Yunkai glanced at Ron, who was completely out of control, and knew that he didn’t need to stay here for long, “Is there anything else you need?”
“We’ll take care of the rest.” Hermione shook her head, “You’ve done so much to eliminate Voldemort, we have to do something.”
“…Okay.” Lu Yunkai nodded, “Then I’ll go.”
“Well, as soon as possible.”
“Don’t worry.”
Lu Yunkai nodded at Hermione, glanced at Harry, and then left the tent directly.
Apparated and returned to his home in Dover.
“Yunkai, why don’t you tell them that Bellatrix is in your house?”
“If you tell them, they will definitely want Bellatrix to die now. Then Nagini will definitely conflict with them… There’s no need.” Lu Yunkai shook his head, “Anyway, no one else will know about her being here, so just hide it.”
“Oh…” Daphne nodded, “Okay, Yunkai, you’ve worked hard all day, go and rest.”
“… Yeah.”
Lu Yunkai sighed softly.
Daphne finally had a little smile on her face.
Finally made it through the first day!
