A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 249 The origin of the name

Chapter 249 The origin of the name

The old city of London, the city cemetery, in the evening, the sun still has the last trace of stubbornness and unwillingness to go down.

Felix is ​​wearing a dark trench coat, standing in front of a tombstone.

"Lock," Felix murmured, "You must be very strange, what happened today. I can only open my heart by facing you..."

"I did a good thing and saved a pair of war heroes; but I seem to have done another not-so-good thing. I tried my best to plan, thinking that I could control people's hearts, but the result was contrary to what I expected .”

"I understand what Dumbledore wants to express. It is nothing more than the blessing of negative and positive emotions to magic, and he said it so cryptically..." He curled his lips.

"I also relied on negative emotions to make rapid progress in black magic. Although I gave up later, I found that it has never been far away from me."

"Seeing Neville, I couldn't help but envy him."

"He is accompanied by his parents and loved by his classmates. Even if he is not talented, he has friendly classmates who help and encourage him; when he is bullied by people from other colleges, there are also people who fight for him."

Felix whispered, "I know I should be happy, I made it happen, but, Locke, I feel lonely."

"Why wasn't I so lucky back then?"

His windbreaker fluttered without wind, and the black and deep magic power naturally spread out, lashing out at his back, but he was restrained within a certain range.

Although Felix has always claimed to be calm and rational, he is not immune to the influence.

Among the people he knew, only Snape knew him best. Snape asked him: "Is someone really walking into your heart?" He then changed the subject.

The answer is of course no.

The sky darkened a little bit, and people passed by from time to time in the cemetery, but they just put down the bouquets, and left quietly after a few minutes of silence, until——

"Felix? Felix Haip?" A strange voice came from behind him.

Felix turned his head in surprise. He was not surprised to see a young man and woman, but surprised that they knew his name.

They are obviously ordinary people.

Felix stared at the man who spoke for a moment, then said tentatively, "Jim?"

The man laughed: "It's hard for you to remember me, when I left the orphanage, you were only nine years old, right?"

"I've always had a good memory." Felix shrugged. "How did you recognize me?"

Jim said: "Black hair, standing in front of Alvin's tombstone again, the age is also right, I tried to guess, and it is true." He introduced the woman next to him and said: "This is my wife, Rebecca .”

Rebecca is a warm and cheerful red-haired woman. She sized Felix up and gave Jim a light tap on the chest: "You never said that you have such a handsome friend."

Jim complained: "We haven't seen each other for a long time. He was just a little kid back then, full of bad water..."

"Bad water, huh?" said Rebecca.

"Ahem, what I mean is that he is a strange spirit. He took half-grown children to set up traps to deal with punks very early on. He was very famous in the orphanage at that time."

Felix looked at them and joked: "You two have such a good relationship... Are you here today?"

Jim said: "I just returned to London to visit Rebecca's grave, and I saw you when I came out. I wasn't sure at the time, so I went around on purpose. The light on the other side was a bit dim, so I couldn't see clearly."

Felix immediately withdrew the overflowing magic power around him, Jim shook his head, was it an illusion?The light seemed to be a little brighter.

Jim sent an invitation to Felix, "We are going to visit the old dean. Rebecca hasn't met the dean yet. Shall we go together?"

"Of course," said Felix graciously.

The three got into a taxi and walked through the streets and alleys. Felix looked at the street scene in novelty, and some orange lights had already been turned on.

"Felix, I haven't asked you yet, where do you work?"

"Neil's company, who was in London before, has gone to Scotland and can come back once a year."

Rebecca said in amazement: "It's the new company Neil, it's very famous now, why did it leave?"

Felix smiled: "I found a more suitable choice."

The taxi stopped in front of an old house in the old town, the walls were mottled with shadows, and the courtyard was covered with ice and snow.

"Dean, we're here to see you." Jim shouted excitedly. After a while, a little old man with white hair came out.

The old man put on the glasses on his chest, looked carefully: "Jim," looked to the side again, and laughed: "Lucky Felix, it's you, didn't you come here a few months ago?"

"I came back for something, and I met Jim, so we came here together." Felix said, he changed the subject, "We went into the room to talk, and Jim brought his wife over."

Sitting on the old brown sofa, Felix almost wanted to call the beer in the refrigerator, but he stopped the thought in time.

So hanging ~ almost exposed ~
The four of them drank cold beer and chatted casually.Soon, they chatted about Felix's recent situation. Felix disguised himself as a professional manager. The company was in Scotland, but he was running around the world.

He happened to have a wealth of experience, so he didn't want to reveal his secrets.

Jim asked a question: "Dean, why do you always call him 'Lucky Felix'?"

The old dean grinned: "Ha, when we found him as a baby, he was in a big tank with a depth of three feet. He was not drowned, but swam happily. Isn't it lucky?"

"Felix" does have a lucky meaning in the English context.

"What about my last name?" Felix couldn't help asking.

"Well, let me think about it..." The old headmaster thought deeply, "You were very different from other children at that time. Always eager to shout..."

Felix's face was dark, wasn't it because the smell was too strong and he couldn't stand it?Quickly call someone over to deal with it.

"...so some nurses at that time called you a helper, that is, a person who provided help." The old director laughed.

This was the first time Felix had heard that his name had come about in this way.At that time, some people did call themselves 'assistant', but the pronunciation of the assistant was not the same as my surname.

"Transliteration, I can't be so straightforward, it seems that I am very uneducated..." The old dean complained for himself, but according to him after drinking, he never went to school.

Jim concluded: "So, the name Felix means lucky helper? And me, me?"

"You?" The old dean gave him a blank look, "You didn't show any difference at the time, of course you took it casually."

Jim hid in Rebecca's arms with a very hurt expression, causing Rebecca to push him away.

The old dean kept them for a meal, and then drove them away.

"It would be great if you could come and see me, go ahead and go about your own business!"

Coming out of the old dean's house, Felix said goodbye to Jim, walked into a dark alley, and apparated away.

When he returned to the office, he saw a figure standing at the door. He suddenly remembered that he forgot to cancel today's Rune tuition. "Professor Haipu!" Hermione greeted happily.
