Chapter 245
It was another summer vacation when Daphne was not around, and for Lu Yunkai, he was getting used to this feeling.

Ever since Voldemort became active, Baron seemed to have been worried that Daphne and the Astoria sisters were staying with Lu Yunkai outside the school. Lu Yunkai had even begun to get used to the feeling of being on vacation...

It's pretty pitiful to say the least.

But this is not something that is completely unacceptable. Just thinking about Blaise, Lu Yunkai thinks that he can still chat with Daphne through the communication mirror every day, which is already very good.

Besides, Daphne was not at home, Lu Yunkai secretly summoned the demon god or something, she didn't know...

Well, although Irene agreed to Daphne's request on the surface and helped her keep an eye on Lu Yunkai when Daphne was not at home, in fact, Irene still supported Lu Yunkai's attempt to help Daphne break the curse.

"Like a man, not bad."

This is Eileen's review.

So Lu Yunkai started summoning the Demon God without any scruples at home.

However, his luck may have been spent on making a good girlfriend. In terms of summoning the demon god, his luck can be said to be amazing...but it can't be said to be bad.

Here's the thing.After Lu Yunkai's last "test", he needed about three days of rest to summon a demon god that lasted about 10 minutes, so he summoned the demon god twice in the first week, all of which were successful.

It's just that the demon god summoned these two times is actually the same...

A big crow.

And what this demon god is good at is not very useful to Lu Yunkai: it is good at identifying herbs and gems.

But the problem is... Lu Yunkai has no interest in gems at all.As for herbs, Irene helps manage the herb fields, and the system helps identify them, so there is no need to learn them yourself!

Therefore, these two summons, and the week, are basically useless.

After calling twice, Lu Yunkai also stopped.He began to suspect that maybe there is a so-called "rotation" for summoning demon gods, that is, the one summoned after a period of time is the same...

However, there is no evidence to support this speculation.

Besides this guess, the reason why Lu Yunkai stopped the summoning attempt was that there were other reasons: Dumbledore contacted Lu Yunkai, and he had already found the trace of Slughorn.

It is estimated that soon, he will ask Lu Yunkai to follow him to persuade his adoptive father to teach at Hogwarts.In order to avoid the fact that his summoning was weak when he was going, Lu Yunkai also planned to wait a week or two before trying again.

However, at this time, Dumbledore fully demonstrated the action power of the greatest wizard of his generation.

Only the second night after he notified Lu Yunkai...

"Harry?? Why are you here?"

"...Lu Yunkai? Can you Apparate?"

When Lu Yunkai followed Dumbledore's instructions and came to a Muggle house, Harry Potter who was following Dumbledore made him obviously stunned.

"For safety, I learned this." Lu Yunkai shook his head, without elaborating, "Are you...to persuade my adoptive father together?"

"The professor said he hoped I could come." Harry glanced at Dumbledore.

"Double insurance." Dumbledore nodded, "Some things can't be delayed for too long, right?"

"...Yes." Lu Yunkai nodded, but gave Dumbledore a wink.

Dumbledore was taken aback for a moment, then smiled.

"Is there anything you can't say to Harry's face?"

"...I don't want to get Harry involved." Lu Yunkai was a little annoyed when he heard that Dumbledore's eyes pierced him directly.

"Since I was left with this scar back then, it has been impossible to stay out of it." Harry who was on the side didn't seem to be very grateful for Lu Yunkai's "kindness".

"...Here." Lu Yunkai gritted his teeth, and took out the Ravenclaw crown from his ordinary bag.

"What is this?" Seeing Lu Yunkai take out a jewel-encrusted crown, Harry was startled.

Although his parents have left him a lot of inheritance, to be honest, it is still much worse than that of a wealthy family. This is the first time he has seen such a gorgeous jeweled crown.

"This...how is it in your hands?" Dumbledore was obviously taken aback when he saw what Lu Yunkai took out.

"I found it by accident in school." Lu Yunkai glanced at Harry, "You know that place, Harry."

"The Room of Requirement??" Harry was surprised, "When did it happen?"

"Freshman." Lu Yunkai replied casually, and then looked at Dumbledore, "I found this one, and I can't destroy it. You should do it."

"...Are you sure??" Dumbledore raised his eyelids.

"I wouldn't believe it if there wasn't any weird black magic on a crown that doesn't take bursting and corrosive potions."

"If Professor Flitwick finds out that you actually threw the explosive corrosion potion on it, I'm afraid he will challenge you to a duel." Dumbledore was delighted.

"Professor Flitwick??" Harry became more and more curious, "Professor, what the hell is this...?"

"This crown has a painting in my headmaster's office." Dumbledore said to Harry patiently: "It once belonged to Rowena Ravenclaw."

"..." Harry opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"But I'm curious, you discovered it in the first grade, why did you take it out now?" Dumbledore looked at Lu Yunkai again and asked.

"At that time, I found that the whole crown was a bit weird, for example, it couldn't be thrown into the space bag." Lu Yunkai said seriously: "Until some time ago, Chris saw Bellatrix mysteriously walked into Gringotts. , reminded me that the best place in the world to hide things..."

"Gringotts and Hogwarts." Dumbledore nodded, "Well, you are indeed a bright student. I think your adoptive father will be proud of you."

"...Is this crown given to you, the professor?" Lu Yunkai wanted to hand the crown to Dumbledore.

however.

"Hold it first." Dumbledore did not reach for it, "How can I remove the black magic on it without damaging the crown? I also need to think about it first. After I think of a solution, you Give me."

"...Isn't it safer to put it at your place?"

"As far as I know, there is no place in England that is safer than the ancestral home of the Shafik family." Dumbledore shook his head, "Even Hogwarts is not as safe."

"...All right." Hearing what Dumbledore said, Lu Yunkai's heart jumped twice.

No matter how it sounds, this is a bit wrong.

Dumbledore...why do you feel afraid of touching this crown?

But this conjecture flashed in Lu Yunkai's mind.

Because Dumbledore had reached out and pushed open the courtyard door of the Muggle house.

Walking through a small lawn in front of the door, Dumbledore directly waved the wand in his hand and unlocked the door.

open the door.

It was dark in the room.

The three wizards used the magic wands in their hands at the same time, and used the fluorescent flashing spell.

The room lights up.

However, it became more terrifying.

There was a mess all over the room.Broken walls, leaky roofs, shards of glass all over the floor, and faint drops of blood dripping from upstairs.

It looks like a big battle or massacre has just been carried out here.

A feeling that made Lu Yunkai feel familiar came to his heart.

It feels exactly the same as the house in Liverpool.

and.

Lu Yunkai frowned.

He sniffed with his nose.

"What, did you find anything?" Dumbledore glanced at Harry, who was looking a little frightened, and asked Lu Yunkai.

"...Dragon's blood." Lu Yunkai reached out to catch a drop of blood dripping from the roof, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, and said with certainty, "This is too fake."

"Yeah." Dumbledore nodded with a gratified smile.

Then he waved his wand.

A breaking spell flew towards a sofa in the room.

The spell hit the sofa, and the sofa quickly shrank and changed.

Soon he became a fat old man.

The blond hair is a bit messy, and many of them are even graying.There are also many wrinkles on the face, and it looks very old.Wearing a checkered pajamas, it was obvious that he should be sleeping before Dumbledore came in.

"Albus! How could you say hello to an old friend like this?" The old man's tone was full of complaints.

"There is no one like you who greets his own children, right?" Dumbledore smiled and glanced at Lu Yunkai.

The old man looked at Lu Yunkai.

The two looked at each other, and Lu Yunkai saw an indescribable feeling in the eyes of the old man...

Appreciation?Is it comfort?Or...happy?
do not know.

However, there were no such things in Lu Yunkai's expression.

"Severus told me that you have broken the magic I cast on you?" the old man, that is, Slughorn, asked Lu Yunkai.

"Well, but I didn't think of too many things, except that I was a little relieved that the guy in the beer hall had nothing to do with me." Lu Yunkai's words were not very polite.

Slughorn was obviously taken aback when he heard Lu Yunkai's tone.

"You can't expect a child who was thrown to such a place by you to suffer at such a young age to be able to smile when he sees you again after so many years?" Dumbledore interjected at the right time.

Slughorn's expression changed slightly again.

Bring a little shame.

"I can't help it. You've seen it too...I've lived like this for most of these years." Slughorn pointed to the room where violence seemed to have occurred, and said to Lu Yunkai, "Let you It's more dangerous to follow me."

"I understand." Lu Yunkai nodded, "So today we are here to give you another choice."

Lu Yunkai's words made Dumbledore startled slightly beside him.

He didn't expect Lu Yunkai to say the purpose of this trip so directly.

"... Back to teach at Hogwarts?" Slughorn smiled and shook his head, "That's not as good as it is now."

"How can Hogwarts be better than this?" Lu Yunkai disagreed, "And...just do me a favor."

"Do you a favor?"

"Professor Dumbledore promised to hire me as the Potions professor at Hogwarts after I graduate. I still have two years to graduate." Lu Yunkai said seriously, "I'm quite interested in this job. "

"...I heard that you are very rich now, so is it still necessary to teach at Hogwarts?"

"You taught at Hogwarts for money?" Lu Yunkai asked rhetorically.

Quiet.

"Horace, I have to say that everyone who knows you will feel from the bottom of their hearts that he is so much like you." Dumbledore sighed softly, breaking the silence in the room.

"... I heard you won the Triwister Cup?" Slughorn didn't answer Dumbledore's words, but continued to ask Lu Yunkai.

"En." Lu Yunkai glanced at Harry beside him, and nodded.

"This is Harry Potter, right?" Slughorn looked at Harry who was following Lu Yunkai, who had been silent all this time.

"Hello, sir." Harry greeted Slughorn politely.

He was a little nervous because he caught Slughorn staring at the scar on Harry's forehead.

After a while.

"You really look like your father. Except for your eyes..."

"Like my mother's eyes." Harry nodded.

Even Lu Yunkai had heard these words countless times, let alone Harry himself.

"...Well. I still remember that your mother was... a smart and beautiful girl... really smart. Although she was born as a Muggle, she was no worse than any student from a pure-blood wizard family..."

"I also know a Muggle-born girl, she is also the smartest student in our grade... Well, it's about the same as Lu Yunkai." Harry glanced at Lu Yunkai and added half a sentence.

"Hermione is smarter than me." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "I can't take courses like arithmetic and divination, it gives me a headache."

Harry listened to Lu Yunkai's humility and smiled.

Lu Yunkai also laughed.

The atmosphere in the room was somewhat relaxed.

"What else can I say?" Slughorn sighed softly, and glanced at Dumbledore, who was smiling but silent, "I can go back, but my office has to be fixed for me." A little, and my salary will increase... [-]%."

"No problem." Dumbledore agreed simply, "In that case, then Harry and I will go first."

"...OK." Slughorn glanced at Harry, then nodded.

Harry and Lu Yunkai looked at each other, nodded slightly, and left with Dumbledore.

And Slughorn drew out his wand, waved it, and the messy room returned to its original state as quickly as possible.

"Sit down." Slughorn pointed to the well-trimmed sofa next to him, and sat down himself.

"...If there is something to talk about, it may not be safe here." Lu Yunkai looked around, while reaching out with his wand, he cast a few protective spells.

Slughorn froze.

"... You are very familiar with these secret spells!"

"I always use it, of course I'm familiar with it." Lu Yunkai smiled and sat down, "Or go to my house and have a chat. It's safer there."

"...Do you have a home?"

"Don't you know that I'm quite rich now!" Lu Yunkai said with a natural smile.

"...Are you sure it's safe? But there are a few lingering people who have been looking for me. After taking it to your house..."

"Don't worry, even Tom Riddle can't find my house."

"...Let's go."

Hearing Voldemort's name, Slughorn's expression was obviously embarrassed.

Then he stood up decisively.
