Hogwarts Kryptonian

"Why did you come here so early?"

"It's too awkward to be in the auditorium."

"What's so awkward? Someone wants to chat with you?"

"...You're not looking for me, you're looking for Astoria."

"oh."

Daphne smiled helplessly and put down the book in her hand.

Lu Yunkai closed the book for her.

Before leaving for the ball, Lu Yunkai came to the infirmary to see Daphne. At that time, she was reading page 73 of "Curse and Magic". When Lu Yunkai closed it for her just now, the book was still on this page.

Where is she reading? !

"But because of me, your dinner party was ruined." Daphne said in a regretful tone, "You should be the focus of the whole school tonight."

"It's not necessary." Lu Yun smiled, recalling the scene when the four warriors danced with their partners as the beginning of the dance.

The girl who was usually crazy and had a snake wrapped around her neck every day, dressed up so fiercely tonight that she actually stole the attention of many boys from Fu Rong.

All I can say is that the necklace with the confusion spell is extremely powerful! !

And the dress is a plus too.

Anyway, during the opening dance, Lu Yunkai and Astoria became the focus of the audience. After coming off the court, the number of boys who came to chat with the girl could be described as "an endless stream".

So much so that she probably didn't even notice Lu Yunkai sneaking away.

As for Lu Yunkai...

He is just a fool, so it is already a victory without being embarrassed.

Before, Daphne was worried that Lu Yunkai would take her sister to be used as a tool, but who could have imagined that the tool person turned out to be Lu Yunkai!

Daphne shook her head slightly and looked out the dark window with a smile.

Snowflakes are falling in the sky, and it feels like Christmas.

Lu Yunkai smiled, looked at Daphne and remained silent.

For a while.

"Actually, I want to dance with you."

"There will be opportunities in the future... Well, let's go. Anyway, the dance is over. Now that you are discharged from the hospital, Madam Pomfrey will definitely not trouble you. Let's go." Lu Yunkai suggested softly.

"Go? Where?"

"I'll take you somewhere." Lu Yunkai said with a smile on his face, "A place where you can dance."

"...But Madam Pomfrey won't let me dance!" Although Daphne said her words of refusal, there was an indescribable smile on her face.

"She won't know. Let's go!"

"But...well."

…

"Meow! Wake up!!"

"...Dead cat! Let me sleep a little longer!"

"You won't die if you don't sleep a little longer! Get up and work quickly!!"

Chrissy said impatiently while scratching Lu Yunkai's face with her paws.

Lu Yunkai sighed softly and got up.

Glancing to the side.

Blaise was still asleep.

This poor guy must have been squatting alone in some unknown place last night. When Lu Yunkai came back to sleep, his bed was still empty!

And Lu Yunkai came back very late last night...

And very tired.

He and Daphne went to the Room of Requirement and danced all night.

"Meow, are you awake? When you wake up, pick up your golden egg and follow me out."

"Eh? Did you find out?"

When Lu Yunkai heard Chrissy's words, his originally dazed brain suddenly woke up.

That day, after Snape forced Lu Yunkai to spend more time on the Triwizard Tournament by threatening to increase his academic load, Lu Yunkai handed over the task of unlocking the secret of the golden egg to Chrissy.

The reason is very high-sounding: he has to search for soul magic related to curses in the pile of forbidden books.

Although Chris objected to this, it was ineffective and she could only accept it.

For a period of time after that, it has been inquiring about the golden egg everywhere, from Durmstrang's residence to the arms of the Beauxbatons sisters. It has done its duty.

"Yes! Fleur also left the dance early last night, but she wasn't going on a date. She was practicing the underwater breathing spell!"

"...Water breathing spell?"

"Yes! Then I heard Gabri asking her sister how her practice was going. She said that if it weren't for the cold weather, she would go down to the lake and have a look first..."

"So, the things for the next mission are at the bottom of the lake?" Lu Yunkai frowned, "But the competition will be at the end of February next year! It will be cold in the lake at that time..."

"Meow! This is the Triwizard Tournament after all. Do you expect you to finish the competition while soaking in a hot spring?" Chris said with a disgusted tone.

"That's right..." Lu Yunkai was scolded. Then, he suddenly remembered something and slapped his thigh heavily, "Oh! Yes!! Snape told me that day that as long as I 'immerse' myself in it, You will definitely understand what the secret of the golden egg is!”

"Immersion? Water? Meow, Snape is such a good teacher!" Chrissy said in a weird voice.

"Humph, is there anyone who doesn't cheat in this Triwizard Tournament? Snape didn't say it explicitly, but it's pretty good." Lu Yunkai waved his hand, "Then I'll find a place with water to open this golden egg..."

"So I asked you to come with me! I found a place. The prefect's bathroom! There is a bath there, and there must be no one there at this time."

"Prefect..."

"You are a Hogwarts Warrior after all! You are fighting for Hogwarts! Not to mention the prefect bathroom, if you go to Dumbledore and ask him to lend you his bathroom, he will probably agree!" Chrissy waved He waved the cat's paw and said, "As long as you don't go into the prefect's bathroom, there won't be any problems."

"You thought I was you!"

Lu Yunkai glared at Chris.

…

"Meow! What did you hear?"

Beside the huge bathing pool, curiosity was written on Chris's face.

As a cat, it’s good that it doesn’t hate water, but if you want to let it play in the water... it’s impossible. Impossible in this life.

Lu Yun opened his head from the bathtub, then reached out and wiped off the water droplets on his face.

"I didn't hear it clearly, so I have to listen again." Lu Yunkai gasped and said, "You can't sing on the ground, steal my treasure, and then only have one hour to find it, otherwise it will disappear. "

"Steal the treasure? What treasure? Me, meow??" Kris started thinking.

"I don't know. But maybe it's really something at the bottom of the lake... Is there anything in the lake that can sing?"

"How do I know!" Chrissy shook her head almost instinctively, and then quickly said, "Oh! By the way! Mermaid!! There are mermaids in the lake! It is said that mermaids can sing. Isn't there a story about mermaids singing to confuse sailors and lead to disasters? …”

"If the mermaid sings with the same voice as the one in this egg, sailors will definitely not look away when sailing." Lu Yun gave Chris a blank look, but he felt that the cat might be right.

As a house whose rest room is at the bottom of a lake, Slytherins know everything about what is in the great lake at Hogwarts.

In addition to the giant octopus, there are many magical creatures.

But if it has something to do with words like language and singing, which are mostly related to intelligence, there may be the only one with a human character in his name.

"Meow, it seems you also need to practice the underwater breathing spell..."

"Is that necessary?" Lu Yun rolled his eyes at Chris, "The second project did not say that only wands are allowed. Underwater breathing potion, one gold galleons per bottle, the system provides it."

"That's good. Let's forget about this project for now. How's your investigation of the banned books going?"

"I was busy with the dance yesterday, so I didn't make any new progress." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "But I thought of something when I was dancing with Daphne yesterday. You said that the curse her father caused could be regarded as something he imposed on himself. Curse?"

"Meow, what do you mean?"

"In the past week, I have checked all the books related to curses in the forbidden book area, and there are almost no curses imposed on myself." Lu Yunkai touched the water, splashed it on his face, and then continued. , "So yesterday I suddenly thought that maybe Voldemort could do some evil things to make his soul cursed, and then achieve the same effect..."

"Voldemort has done too many crazy things!"

"To be honest, I really don't know what he did." Lu Yunkai sighed softly, "But it's not important. For example, I will cast a protective spell on you first. The effect of the spell is that if someone tries to kill you , that person's soul will be torn apart, and then I will kill you..."

"Meow, then your soul will split?" Chris nodded, "This is a way to curse yourself. But the soul that leaves the body will disappear immediately!"

"But there are some that don't disappear! For example, the ghosts in the academy and the paintings on the wall!" Lu Yunkai said seriously, "I can completely prepare a magic item that can capture the fragments of my soul, and then after I kill you, The torn soul will be attached to that item..."

"Like that notebook!!" Chris nodded repeatedly, "The resurrection ritual he is doing now seems to be preparing a container for his soul!"

"So I think what I'm looking for is not a magic that can tear apart the soul, but a container that can preserve the soul. As for how to tear the soul, it may just be a bonus to making that container... Moody wasn't in class before. As he said before, using the Soul-stealing Curse to kill people will cause the soul to be cursed. Although he didn't say what this curse is, I plan to try this idea today. "

"Meow, how can I help you?"

"Not yet." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "I can only slowly search in the restricted book area, but... I definitely don't have time to think about the Triwizard Tournament."

"Meow. This is easy, just leave it to me." Chris nodded, "I will help you keep an eye on Krum and Fleur. I will tell you any new preparations they have, and you can follow them when the time comes. That’s it.”

"Well." Lu Yunkai stood up from the bath, "Okay, I'll go find Harry first and tell him about the egg."

"No need, right?" Kris stopped Lu Yunkai, "I think it might not be a good thing for him if you rush to help him with everything."

"How to say?"

"It's obvious that someone wants to plot against him in this competition. As for who it is... he hasn't shown up yet, aren't you curious?"

"You want me to use Harry as bait?" Lu Yunkai understood instantly, "Then what's the difference between me and Dumbledore!!"

"But if you let the conspirator hide behind your back, when will you find out! Wouldn't that make you even more upset?" Chris still insisted, "Besides, don't underestimate Harry and Hermione. I think this He can definitely think of something as simple as an egg.”

"..."

"How about this, Meow? I'll keep an eye on him for you. If he hasn't discovered the secret by mid-January, you can go find him again."

"also."

Lu Yunkai thought for a moment and nodded.
