Hogwarts Kryptonian

"sit."

A simple invitation that sounded like a command.

Lu Yunkai sat down obediently.

Because opposite him was the person he respected most in the entire Hogwarts, Snape.

It's late December and Christmas is just around the corner.

Lu Yunkai has been busy again recently.

Going to class, doing homework, practicing dancing, and then the study of the resurrection ritual, which was put back on the agenda after being reminded by Chris, made Lu Yunkai's schedule very full.

So he really didn't have much energy to think about what Snape wanted to do with him.

"Are you going home for Christmas break this year?"

Snape pulled out a piece of paper from his desk as if chatting. That’s this year’s list of Christmas holiday stats.

"Hmm. What?"

"Guests from Durmstrang and Beauxbatons will stay at Hogwarts for the Christmas holidays. You may be the only one among the few warriors who will leave..."

"oh."

"...Don't you think it's inappropriate?" Snape felt helpless at Lu Yunkai's indifference.

He is probably the only person in the entire Slytherin Academy besides Lu Yunkai who knows best how little Lu Yunkai cares about the Triwizard Tournament.

"What's inappropriate? What does it have to do with me whether they leave or not?"

"...So, let's make this clear." Snape threw the piece of paper back into the pile, "What are you going to do when you leave school?"

"It's a holiday! I can still..."

Can you still run to see Voldemort? Um.

"Some people think that you may want to use this holiday to leave school to get some off-site help to help you win the Triwizard Tournament..."

"Who? Madame Maxime? Professor Karkaroff?"

"...No matter who it is, considering the fairness of the competition, the Headmaster suggested that I persuade you that it is best not to leave Hogwarts during this Christmas holiday." Snape shook his head, "Since you represent Hogwarts Warriors of Watts, it’s best to study more about your challenge mission instead of spending so much energy on some inexplicable things, such as some ancient evil rituals..."

"...Do you know what I asked Fleur?"

"Fleur told her headmaster, and Madam Maxime still has a basic judgment about what a ritual that uses both blood and flesh is going on." Snape said with a straight face, "I know you You may want to use a living doll to transfer the curse on Greengrass, but unfortunately, the Ministry of Magic will not allow this to happen in England. If it does, it may only be in Azkaban."

"...What transfer curse?"

"Don't pretend to be stupid. Although I have taught you Occlumency, it does not mean that you can lie freely in front of me." Snape squinted his eyes with a serious look on his face, "Whether it is the Headmaster or Maxim After learning the reason why you wanted to do this, the lady said that they could forget about it, but... this matter is over for you. Your only problem now is the golden egg. The only Triwizard Tournament player who has not yet unlocked the secret..."

"How is that possible! A few days ago, Harry told me that he hadn't untied it either! There's no way he could lie to me!"

"Can he be considered a contestant? He just got in to save his life because the contract cannot be canceled. You are the representative of Hogwarts!!"

"..."

So what do you want to say, in the first round we let a non-competitor take first place? ?

"I'll give you another week." Snape said with a straight face, "After the Yule Ball, if you still can't solve the secret of the golden egg, it will make me doubt whether you have studied seriously at Hogwarts. Things, by then, you will have more homework after class..."

"...I understand." Lu Yunkai sighed helplessly when he heard that Snape was planning to use homework as a threat.

Despicable professor! !

"I believe that with your brain, as long as you immerse yourself in it, you can unlock the secrets in less than a day. If you can't do it, you just don't pay attention." Snape was about to end the conversation, "Your application to go home I will change it. During the Christmas vacation, you can go to school and help me figure out how to face the next game."

"But……"

"About Greengrass, the Headmaster said that he can help you ask some of his old friends. But... you understand, it depends on your performance in the Triwizard Tournament!"

"……Fine."

Lu Yunkai smiled bitterly, lowered his head and walked out of Snape's office.

I really wasn't thinking about helping Daphne transfer the curse on her body, I was just worried about Voldemort...

Wait a moment! ! Transferring a curse? ? substitute? ?

curse? ?

Lu Yunkai suddenly felt that a window opened in front of him.

…

"Meow? You mean, you think Voldemort is cursed??"

"Isn't it true? You've seen his current bird-like appearance, half-dead...I wouldn't be surprised at all if you say he was cursed."

On the bed in the dormitory, Lu Yunkai crossed his legs, looked at Chris who had just been pulled up by him, and said with a serious face.

"Meow, you have to figure it out, but Voldemort himself said that it was the magic he cast that made him immortal..."

"It's a curse you put on yourself!"

"No one would curse themselves!!"

"What if the curse means that a person can live forever?" Lu Yunkai said seriously, "What if the curse means that after death, a person's soul can wander in the world and can only be attached to other things... In our east, There are usually two special names for this kind of thing, wandering ghosts and ghosts, and there is also a special curse: I will not let you go even if you are a ghost!"

"Meow, although I don't know what you are talking about, I still don't believe that Voldemort would curse me." Chris shook her head, "Although I hate him, I have to admit that he is the smartest contemporary. The most accomplished wizard. There is absolutely no need for him to curse this way..."

"Then don't call it a curse, call it a blessing!" Lu Yunkai waved his hand, "Or any other name? As long as he can live forever, he is not the kind of person who cares what the name of magic is. Just like you, will Do you mind if the money comes from a murderer or a moral guardian?"

"Meow." Chris seemed to be a little convinced by Lu Yunkai.

"Besides, I also thought of something." Seeing that he had convinced Chris, Lu Yunkai became more and more excited, "Voldemort's notebook should have been made by him when he was very young, right?"

"Yeah! I heard from Ginny that he called himself Tom Riddle in it. You know, he stopped using this name soon after graduating from Hogwarts. His hatred for his Muggle father This is the source of his hatred for all Muggles, why would he still be willing to bear his last name..."

"He was born in an orphanage, just like me, right? Before entering Hogwarts, he had no place to come into contact with magic..."

"Meow!! What on earth do you want to say!?"

"I just came to my senses. I seem to have been complicating the problem." Lu Yunkai's expression became very sincere. "Because of Voldemort's power and omniscience, I have always suspected that his secret of immortality may be someone A secret that does not exist in the knowledge of British wizards, some kind of powerful magic that only he knows... But the problem is, if he was just a wizard apprentice at Hogwarts when he first used this magic, How could he create such powerful magic?"

"Meow, so he must have learned it from somewhere... the forbidden book area!!" Chrissy also reacted instantly.

"Yes! It can only be there! Maybe it is a very dangerous, evil, and even magic with many side effects. But at that time, he wanted to be immortal at all. He didn't understand at all, and he didn't care about so much, so he just treated himself He used that kind of magic." Lu Yunkai nodded, "His secret must be hidden in a corner of a forbidden book, waiting for me to discover it, and now that I have so many clues..."

Speaking of this, Lu Yunkai put a smile on his face.

"...I think it's time for me to take matters into my own hands and uncover his secrets."

…

"Brother-in-law, how are you?"

"...This dress is a bit too big for you."

"My sister will be very angry if she knows you called her fat!" Astoria smiled and turned around.

Lu Yunkai was actually not talking about the whole, but... forget it. And the girl in front of him was enough to stun him.

He didn't know whether to say that the long dress Mrs. Zabini helped him choose was beautiful, or... this long dress was beautiful.

However, Lu Yunkai felt that this long skirt seemed more suitable for Astoria than for Daphne...

ah! What am I thinking! !

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and hurry up to the auditorium! After the opening dance, I have to accompany your sister!"

"...Ah! Are you just going to dance with me and then abandon me? Then what will happen to me?"

"Then you think I want to dance with you all night and leave your sister alone in the infirmary? Then what will happen to me??" Lu Yunkai glared at Astoria, "Okay, don't talk nonsense. …Anyway, you are pretty enough today.”

"Hey, by the way, brother-in-law, do me a favor and put this necklace on for me."

"...Why did your sister give this to you??"

Lu Yunkai looked at the necklace with a confusion spell in Astoria's hand with a ridiculous look on his face.

That's one of Daphne's treasures! Even compared to the pair of bell flower ear clips and the bell flower hairpin, this necklace is the only thing that never leaves her body!

"I'd rather she give it to me! She's just borrowing it." Astoria seemed a little dissatisfied with her sister's stinginess. "She said, since I am accompanying you to the dance for her, let me wear this necklace. , when the time comes, it may be more like her..."

"...Aren't you angry?"

"What's there to be angry about! I just went for her!" Astoria said matter-of-factly, "If the pair of bell flower earrings you gave her weren't so ugly, she would still want me. Put it on!"

"..."

Lu Yunkai helped Astoria put on the necklace.

It was obvious that there were some changes on her face.

Yes, but not big. Compared to Daphne, it can even be seen that there is almost no change.

Although Lu Yunkai doesn't want to admit it, Astoria is indeed a little more beautiful than her sister...

But now after wearing this necklace, there is almost no difference between the two sisters. It can even be said that they are poured out of the same mold.

No wonder Daphne wanted her to wear this necklace to the ball! At first glance, it really looks like I took Daphne there.

It's just...this girl really doesn't mind? ?

"...Oh! I'm not that glass-hearted!!" Astoria laughed when she saw Lu Yunkai's weird expression staring at her, "I understand!! You have a good relationship and it's also a good thing for me! Only then can I confidently ask you for money, right? Brother-in-law..."

"...Say it! What do you want?"

"Hehe! It's so refreshing!" Astoria saw Lu Yunkai's wise appearance and nodded with satisfaction, "The letter my mother gave me said that Zabini Magic Items Store has recently started selling the items you used to contact your sister before. It's the kind of mirror that I use. It's very expensive. It costs 30,000 gold galleons each. You have to order it. She bought one as a gift for her father, but she couldn't give it to me as a Christmas gift... You see, it's tomorrow. It’s Christmas…”

"Here." Lu Yunkai simply took out a mirror and handed it to Astoria.

"Oh, I don't have room to pack it now! And since it's a gift, why don't you even wrap it?"

"...Okay! I'll get it done for you later tonight."

"Hey, thank you brother-in-law..."

"Let's go! Let's go to the dance!"

"Well! Brother-in-law, come on and show your performance! I want to be the focus of the audience tonight."

"Don't worry, you will be!"

"hey-hey……"
