Hogwarts Kryptonian.

Chapter 253
Although Chris was very upset about Lu Yunkai forcing him to drink more water and pee more frequently, she still cooperated very well.After all, compared to Lu Yunkai, Chris was the one who hated Voldemort to the bone.

Besides, if Lu Yunkai could dispose of Voldemort's hard-working Horcrux with just a few more boos, he would be more than happy...

Unfortunately, he is not Chris.

Of course, even if Chris didn't cooperate, it still couldn't stop Lu Yunkai from dealing with the Horcrux: it was just a matter of buying some basilisk venom from the system anyway.Dumbledore had trouble finding basilisk venom, and he didn't have any problems.

The reason why he insisted on asking Chris to try was also because he was curious whether what Dumbledore said was true.

Anyway, according to Dumbledore, Chrissy's urine was originally colorless and odorless. A cleaning spell should be able to clean it up, and it should be better than snake venom.

As it turns out, Dumbledore is Dumbledore after all, and knowledgeable indeed.

When a week passed quickly, when Chrissy asked Lu Yunkai to go to its room to take the crown away with a look of disgust, Lu Yunkai was very sure that the fragment of Voldemort's soul attached to it was gone.

After being identified by the system, the diadem, which had been severely "depreciated" before, was soaked in Chris's urine for several days, and it could actually be put into the interspatial bag.

Even the price in the system has doubled.

Lu Yunkai was very pleased.

I feel a little bit sorry for Voldemort: to be so despised by the system... Poor.

And the summer vacation has gradually entered into a kind of daily life of doing nothing.

Soon, the entire month of July was over.

In the last days of July, the owls from Hogwarts arrive.

I brought the necessary materials and new book list for next year's admission, as well.

OWLS grades.

……

"how is it going??"

"……Okay?"

"I asked you how many O's you took!"

Daphne looked expectant in the mirror.

Lu Yunkai's expression also looked good.

Of course not bad...

"Ten."

"Ah?? Which one did you not get?"

"...Divination."

"Is that so..."

Daphne sighed softly.

"...Why, do you still feel regretful??" Seeing Daphne's reaction, Lu Yunkai was a little surprised.

What is there to regret?Except that Lu Yunkai didn't go to class before, he just had the mentality of "going for the test and playing" arithmetic divination, the remaining eleven subjects got O in all except divination, so what else? ?

People can't help but be so dissatisfied!

"It would be great if you got all O's! Then you'll win Hermione."

"...Divination I really don't have much talent, you have to admit it!"

"Oh, forget it, what a pity."

"Right, you..."

"Ah! It's getting late, I'm going to bed, good night!!"

Daphne directly cut off the communication.

Lu Yunkai smiled helplessly and shook his head.

Daphne's appearance is obviously because she is afraid that Lu Yunkai will ask her how her grades are!

It doesn't seem particularly ideal... But it shouldn't be too bad, right?After all, I have been seriously preparing with myself for a whole year.

But the problem... Lu Yunkai really didn't intend to ask her this.He wanted to ask Daphne if he would help her and Astoria buy all the things they needed to prepare for the new school year.

Anyway, he plans to go to Diagon Alley today.

During the period after the Horcrux was disposed of, Lu Yunkai basically never left home for safety reasons, and he didn't think that Baron would let Daphne return to England too early, probably like at Christmas time, Stepping home the night before back to school.

That being the case, it's better to do it all at once.

Daphne will definitely not answer the video call, so Lu Yunkai can only contact Astoria.

The little girl had a great time playing in Southeast Asia recently, but after the communication was connected, Lu Yunkai found that Astoria seemed to be in a bad mood today.

Hearing that Lu Yunkai was willing to help her go shopping, she sent the list of items to Lu Yunkai without saying a word, and then cut off the communication.

Well, seeing Astoria like this, Lu Yunkai is sure that Daphne's OWLS results should be very good...

Humming a song, and holding the OWLS report card and the list of items for the new school year, Lu Yunkai walked out of the bedroom and went downstairs. With a handful of Floo powder in the fireplace, he came to the Leaky Cauldron.

There are many people.

It has been a few weeks since Lu Yunkai and the Weasley brothers came here to discuss business, the stagnant Leaky Cauldron seems to have regained some of its popularity.

Clinking cups, chatting and laughing loudly, these background sounds belonged to the Leaky Cauldron Bar, which made Lu Yunkai feel more at ease.

Tom was still sitting behind the bar, and saw Lu Yunkai who came out of the fireplace and waved slightly, as a greeting.

Lu Yunkai nodded to his old friend, and walked directly into Diagon Alley through the back door.

When the stone wall was opened and the arch door appeared, Lu Yunkai was slightly stunned.

The lively Diagon Alley... What's wrong?
Most of the shops are closed.There were quite a few people walking around in the alley, but they were all in a hurry, without the leisure that once belonged to Diagon Alley.

Isn't the Leaky Cauldron fully restored?Why does Diagon Alley seem to be getting worse?
With this doubt, Lu Yun unfolded the parchment at hand and started purchasing items.

For Lu Yunkai, who has been shopping here for the sixth year, buying all the items on the list is already an easy task, but today Lu Yunkai's purchasing trip is going very slowly.

Every shop that Lu Yunkai walked into, he chatted a few more words.

None of these old Diagon Alley friends complained, they all just said, "This is normal".

It seemed like they were all perfectly fine with the situation.

Or, have they experienced it?
Several very old shopkeepers put up transfer signs outside their shops, and in their chats with Lu Yunkai, they all showed a feeling of "it's almost okay".

Okay, this is the magic world.

Alright, this is the Ministry of Magic.

OK...

that's it.

This made Lu Yunkai feel more and more panicked.

Until I saw a shop...

Weasley joke shop.

Needless to ask, Lu Yunkai also knew who the owner of this brand-new store looked like from the outside.

And the din of people coming from the store made Lu Yunkai's heavy heart feel better.

Push open the store door.

"Welcome to the Weasley joke shop!!"

George's (or was it Fred?) voice rang at the same time as the door bell rang.

And the chatter and laughter of the young wizard apprentices in the noisy shop instantly filled Lu Yunkai's ears.

"Yo! Lu Yunkai!! You're here??" It should be one of Fred's Weasley twin brothers who greeted him with a smile.

"...You guys are fast enough!" Lu Yunkai looked at this decorated and magically treated space that was about the size of his own lobby, filled with all kinds of joke toys, and said with emotion.

"Of course! There is interest on the borrowed money!" Fred smiled, "And it must be opened before the students come to Diagon Alley to buy supplies for the new school year!"

"Yeah." Lu Yun nodded with a smile,

Indeed, these students who are still in Hogwarts or other wizarding schools are the main customers of this kind of joke shop.

If these customers cannot form a good impression of their products at this time, they may not be able to operate this year...

"By the way, boss, can I discuss something with you?" Fred smiled and pointed at one of the sticks with his wand. The screaming monkey and the colorful fireworks made it disappear, and said to Lu Yunkai: "We want to make an advertisement on the communication mirror, can you make it cheaper for us?"

"...There is a standard price. It's cheap for you, so I have to advance the money." Lu Yun smiled and shook his head, "Five thousand gold Galleons a week, the same price."

"It's too expensive!" Fred sighed softly.

"It depends on the fact that you are my friend, so you don't need to wait in line." Lu Yun continued with a smile, "Otherwise, the advertisement for the communication mirror is already scheduled for Christmas."

"Forget it!" Fred shook his head with a smile, expressing his abandonment. "We definitely can't do advertising."

"Actually, I don't think it's necessary." Lu Yunkai shook his head and looked around, "The joke shop doesn't have to deal with all wizards, isn't the main target group still students! When you are idle and bored in school, there are always people It will be advertised for you for free."

"Well, that's all I can think of." Fred nodded, "Then... you look around? I still have to work."

"Go ahead!"

Lu Yun smiled and patted Fred on the shoulder. He walked around in this not-so-small shop, crowded among a group of wizard apprentices.

Acquaintances are everywhere!
Everyone is shopping for their favorite toys in the store with a smile on their faces, such as skipping class candy with various effects (can make you comatose, fever, nosebleed, and vomiting), stretchable ears that allow you to eavesdrop on other people’s conversations, and Fireworks with fancy effects, even fake magic wands...

Standing in front of the counter, looking at a fake magic wand that was said to turn the caster into a strange costume, Lu Yunkai felt a little complicated.

It's already bleak outside, but it's still bustling here.

After all, the life of students and children is happy and simple!
Just like this wand, when Lu Yunkai passed by Ollivander's wand shop just now, he found that the shop that claimed to have been open for decades was not only locked, but there was no one in the shop, and there was no shopkeeper outside the door. Leave a message about how to get in touch.

When Lu Yunkai was buying books at the nearby Lihen Bookstore, he asked by the way. The wand shop has been closed for a long time, and no one even knows where Ollivander went...

"Why, have you taken a fancy to our fake wand?"

Just when Lu Yunkai's thoughts went to an unknown place, George's voice sounded behind Lu Yunkai.

"It's quite interesting." Lu Yunkai put down the toy in his hand with a smile, and looked at George with a smile.

"Buy it if you like it! You are not short of money!" George continued with a smile.

"Yeah." Lu Yunkai nodded with a smile.

In fact, he didn't like this kind of small toy very much, but...just support the Weasley brothers.

After seeing Lu Yunkai pick up a fake wand, George began to introduce various things in their shop to Lu Yunkai with a smile on his face.

It sounds like reporting to the creditor, but in fact, I hope Lu Yunkai can buy more things...

But Lu Yunkai is not interested in most of these little things.

In the end, I only bought three fireworks and a fake wand.As for the skipping candy that George was trying to sell, he didn't take any of it.

"I really don't skip classes very much. There is really no need." Lu Yunkai smiled and said apologetically to George, who was full of regret and tried to make a last effort when paying the bill.

A few gold Galleons were handed over.

Just as George was giving Lu Yun the change, suddenly there was a loud noise from the street outside the door.

With a bang, Lu Yunkai felt that the ground he was standing on trembled.

The noisy shop instantly fell silent.

Then, there was a burst of screaming and panic.

"Everyone be quiet!! Please rest assured! Our store is absolutely safe!!"

George and Fred seemed to have been prepared for this kind of accident a long time ago, and they shouted almost in unison.

The voice amplified by magic spells echoed throughout the shop, making people's ears numb.

However, it also played a role in stabilizing a group of underage wizard apprentices in the store.

The commotion in the shop subsided quickly.

However, although the riot in the store subsided, the streets outside Diagon Alley became chaotic.

Puff puffs of apparating sounds resounded all over the street.

Men appeared in Auror cloaks, wands in hand, and nervous faces.

"What happened?" Lu Yunkai looked at the anxious and flustered figures of the Aurors outside the door, and muttered curiously.

"Who knows? Maybe the Ministry of Magic was attacked and the Minister of Magic died?" George joked with a smile.

"...Don't make such a joke."

Lu Yun smiled and shook his head, and took the change from him.

"Don't go out yet, wait for a while." George stopped Lu Yunkai who was about to leave, "Being interrogated by them, it's better to sit in the store for a while."

"...Alright."

Lu Yunkai glanced at the Aurors who were holding their wands at every passerby, and nodded.

And the door of the store was pushed open at once.

A tall black wizard walked into the store.

"Kingsley?" George looked familiar to the Auror who walked in.

In fact, Lu Yunkai also knew each other.

"Hmm...is there nothing in your store?"

"It's okay. The protective magic that I troubled you and Moody to set up before is quite useful." George smiled and nodded, and then looked at the room that was quiet in the shop, but his face was obviously full of fear. Apprentice wizard, "Don't worry, we will protect everyone."

"En." Kingsley nodded, and then his eyes fell on Lu Yunkai who was about to go out.

Slightly stunned.

Then he glanced at the fireworks and fake magic wand in Lu Yunkai's hand.

"What happened outside?" Lu Yunkai asked curiously.

"...an attack happened." Kingsley also knew that Lu Yunkai was a "non-staff member" of the Order of the Phoenix, and said in a low voice, "...the minister was just attacked on the street outside."

"what??"

Lu Yunkai glanced at George in shock.

George was also stunned.

I predict that I will fail the class!how come……
