Hogwarts Kryptonian.

Chapter 132
But it turns out that Chris' worry is a bit unnecessary.

Even if Lu Yunkai didn't give orders to the big snake, it still inherited the snake's inherent nature.

They don't like people.

So I didn't see any news about "a giant snake passing through the city" in the Muggle world.

This finally made the distraught Lu Yunkai feel better.

And when the giant snake finally arrived at the backyard of Lu Yunkai's house the next day, Lu Yunkai was not the only one who greeted it.

"This snake is really strange!"

Looking at the giant snake with its body crossed and sleeping in the middle of a large piece of grass, Irene's expression was not so much curiosity as excitement.

She voluntarily came to work overtime because she had nothing to do at home and couldn't find any place to play (Lu Yunkai didn't plan to pay her for overtime), and after Lu Yunkai woke up early in the morning and saw her, she also I asked her carefully, do you know how to make a snake live in this house safely...

As a top student with double NEWTS in herbalism and protection of magical biology, Irene confidently brought Lu Yunkai to a row of herbs she planted.

Lu Yunkai reached out and touched the leaves, and he knew that this batch of herbs was called cnidium...

Just because of this name, Lu Yunkai understood why Irene brought him here.

Now, this big snake, which has been driving for two days, is coiled in the grass, sleeping peacefully.

"This guy won't affect the quality and price of this batch of grass, right?" Lu Yunkai was worried about other issues.

"No! Although the snake-inhabited cnidium itself is useless, the fruit it produces will have more attributes of snakes. It is a very good herbal medicine!" Irene said like a treasure.

"Well, that's good." Lu Yunkai sighed.

"Where did you get this snake? I don't think I've ever seen a snake of this size that is actually poisonous." Irene continued her question just now.

"My classmate's family thinks it's in the way...is it poisonous?"

"Look, the cnidium leaves over there have started to turn red, because there are very poisonous snakes nearby." Irene pointed to a piece of grass, "It seems that the speed of the cnidium changing color, the body of this snake It should have an extremely violent poison, or a particularly rare poison."

"...Herbology is really broad and profound!" Lu Yunkai sighed, "But it may be more than a snake."

"Oh? So what is it?"

"It's... well, Chris thinks it might... used to be a person." Lu Yunkai said slowly, considering his words.

"Used to be human? Agmanis?? Impossible!" Irene shook her head, "Agmanis can't make Cnidium turn red!"

"So I don't know!" Lu Yunkai shook his head, "Yesterday afternoon, I wanted to go to the Magic Zoo to ask the boss, but she went on a trip, so I had to wait until the summer vacation to ask her."

"I'll go back and check for you!" Irene thought for a while and said, "Anyway, I have nothing to do recently."

"Then trouble you."

……

After finishing the tasks entrusted by Trelawney, Lu Yunkai had no other arrangements for the Christmas holiday.

And the Ministry of Magic released a piece of news through the Daily Prophet that someone had witnessed Sirius near the Czech Republic, which also made this holiday, which was still more or less clouded by the Death Eaters who escaped from prison, clearer.

It also made Lu Yunkai, who was still a little worried about Sirius' whereabouts, completely relieved.

The Czech Republic is still far away from the Balkan Peninsula. Even if the Ministry of Magic sent Aurors to track it down, it would be impossible to find out.

After Black developed a message to Lu Yun that day, he also lost contact again.Thinking about finding Voldemort, it will be a long time later.And even though he wanted to ask Hermione why she told the twin sisters about the secret room, Lu Yunkai didn't let the owl deliver the letter after all.

Some things must be made clear in person.After all, he has extremely high expectations and sustenance for Hermione...

Therefore, the snake became the only problem that Lu Yunkai needed to solve at the moment.

There is a soul but no consciousness, this strange state is almost exactly the same as Lu Yunkai's guess about Chris last year.

Although Chris didn't really lose consciousness and memory at the time, this snake really was!
This made Lu Yunkai, who had studied a lot of related topics last year, so enthusiastic about his research.

Anyway, the snake's problem is not as urgent as Chris's problem last year, and it's not even a big problem for Lu Yunkai: after the snake came to Lu Yunkai's house, it seemed to like it more than the twins' house.

Even if Lu Yunkai lifted the Imperius Curse on it, it still lingered near the cnidium every day.

And after learning that this snake can double the production value of cnidium, Lu Yunkai has no interest in driving it away at all, so he just asks Xueli to feed it something to eat every day!Well worth it!

Then study it slowly! !

Also because he was not in a hurry, even when Lu Yunkai was reading books to find relevant information, he still had time to do other things.

After the Daily Prophet's report, Malfoy, who had been grounded for a summer vacation, finally got his father's permission, so he wouldn't have to stay at home for the entire Christmas holiday.

Then he fulfilled the promise that had been arranged half a year ago.

He took Lu Yunkai to visit the potion master.

An old man who looks very old.

Lu Yunkai also brought a bottle of potion that he prepared to ask the master to help him comment.

As for the results and gains...

Anyway, after Lu Yunkai came back, he didn't tell Daphne or Chris anything about the master.

Even Malfoy, who always liked to brag, was tight-lipped afterwards, and he didn't say a word about what happened there in the correspondence between Goyle and Crabbe.

If there is the only clue that can guess what happened there, it is that after returning from there, all the commonly used potions of the Malfoy family no longer spent a lot of money to ask the master to help them make them, but instead asked Lu Yun to open them through Draco. helped...

cough cough.

"That person is even worse than Lu Yunkai!!"

This was what Draco, who felt ashamed, said when he was angry at his father at home that night.

Of course, this is actually a bit of a bully. The potion that Lu Yun opened and asked the master to taste was a bursting corrosion potion that had been contained in his precious crystal bottle. It was already very easy for the master to prepare a bottle on the spot It's not easy, as for the appearance not as good as Lu Yunkai... It's not a crime of war!

Lu Yunkai's dissatisfaction with this master wasn't about the explosion and corrosion potion, but when he was making the potion, Lu Yunkai asked him which potions might be useful in dealing with the basilisk.

He meant to fill in the gaps in Snape's answer from the master, but the master was not even as good as Snape.

And Malfoy was not so angry at first, the reason why he felt ashamed was mainly because the master realized that the potion he prepared on the spot was not as good as Lu Yunkai, and drove the two of them out of the house in a rage...

But this is definitely a good thing for Lu Yunkai.

The Malfoy family spends at least [-] to [-] Galleons on various daily potions every year. Although Lu Yunkai does not have the "Master" brand, the price cannot be sold as high as other people's, but [-] Galleons are worth it. Yes, this amount of money is not a small amount.

What's more, after the Malfoy family took the lead, the Goyle and Crabbe families who were close to them seemed to have this idea...

Therefore, face problems such as being kicked out... don't exist!
As a thank you, Lu Yunkai also gave Malfoy's mother a copy of the beauty ointment with whitening and anti-aging effects that he had given to Irene before.

"Although my mother has that necklace and doesn't need it, she still expresses her great gratitude to you. It's just that she hopes to buy some more from you to give to her friends. How much do you think is suitable?"

The feeling of thanking Lu Yunkai for letting him show his face in front of his mother in Malfoy's news is almost gushing out...

Then Lu Yunkai was nagged by Daphne.

"You gave Mrs. Malfoy all, but not my mother??"

"I've already kept a copy at your house! It's just that you went to the other side of the ocean for vacation!" Lu Yunkai answered without stuttering.

"It's almost there."

Daphne nodded in satisfaction.

Then Lu Yunkai had no choice but to go to the deserted Greengrass Castle overnight and put a copy in the living room.

……

In this way, the not too long Christmas holiday came to an end.

Irene, who went back and searched the book for a long time, couldn't find any way to explain the strangeness of the snake. She also promised Lu Yunkai that she would help him to ask the owner of the Magic Zoo later, and she would tell him the result through the communication mirror.

But Lu Yunkai felt that Irene didn't seem to be in a hurry to help Lu Yunkai find the answer.

In addition to helping the cnidaria grow more and more decently, the snake is also very helpful to the maintenance of a certain herb in the field that may attract mice. Now, she is better than Xueli when it comes to feeding the snake. much more positive...

Also the day before the end of the Christmas holiday, Daphne, the Cowherd and Weaver Girl who played with Lu Yun for a while, finally returned to Greengrass Castle.

Then I kept pulling Lu Yunkai to talk about how she and her sister followed her father to explore the ancient magic ruins he discovered during this holiday, and were almost attacked by a huge four-winged bird. It looks very fierce, and it can attract rain, snow, and even thunder and lightning wherever it flies, and it seems to be quite docile...

It looked like she was very happy with the holiday.

But in the words of Astoria, who was stroking the snake and adding the details of the story, "she definitely prefers to stay by your side and spend this holiday doing nothing."

Daphne didn't refute this.

"Of course, it would be even better if you could take me with you."

she said so.

This made Lu Yunkai suddenly feel a little embarrassed if he didn't give Daphne a Christmas holiday surprise.

Fortunately, he did.

Pulling Daphne, and this time Astoria who insisted on following him through the Floo powder, Lu Yunkai returned to his home.

Regardless of Astoria's exclamation about Lu Yunkai's fuss about having such a house, he took Daphne to see the big snake that he had studied for almost the entire Christmas holiday.

After this period of time, the big snake had no hostility towards Lu Yunkai, and even rubbed its head against Lu Yunkai's head, which made the golden python on her body so nervous that it almost suffocated her since it came to this house. Astoria jumped up enviously.

Her golden python is even more afraid of this big snake than Chris...

In front of her sister, Daphne straightened her back even more.

"You broken snake, apart from looking good, you are nothing but trash."

"...That snake is not yours, why are you so stubborn?"

"The cloud opened, isn't it mine?"

"……Humph!"

On the train back to Hogwarts, the sisters bickered, making everyone else sitting next to them laugh.

Except Bryce.

He chose to look at the white snow scene outside the window, and he didn't want to look at the picture of Lu Yunkai and Daphne showing their affection there.
