Hogwarts Kryptonian.

Chapter 269
When the entire magic world is in a state of anxiety and dire straits, even the best magic musical instrument will play a melody that is out of tune.

Lu Yunkai originally thought that he was in a shelter like Hogwarts, so there shouldn't be any wind and rain hitting his head.

However, he was wrong.

The next day, on the first Sunday morning when Lu Yunkai returned to Hogwarts to go to school, a group of people visited him, waking him up from the singing and dancing at the Slug Club the night before.

Come on, it's still an old friend.

"It's really complicated to revisit the old place!"

A voice that made Lu Yunkai feel a little nauseous rang out in the principal's office.

Lu Yunkai stood in front of the desk, looking at the old woman in pink behind the desk, feeling very bad.

Still, he tried to keep himself smiling.

"You have finally sat in this position. Although... just sit for a while."

"I don't like this seat very much, it's boring." Umbridge replied to Lu Yunkai with a melancholy smile, "Sit down."

As he spoke, he waved his magic wand, and a stool appeared behind Lu Yunkai.

Lu Yunkai sat down naturally.

There were only the two of them in the room.

"Do you know what I'm here for?" Umbridge asked Lu Yunkai.

"I heard you're registering Muggle-born wizards now?"

"Well. Then you should know why I'm looking for you, right?"

"I... am Muggle-born?" Lu Yunkai pointed to himself.

"Of course not! You are the head of Slytherin House and the son of Professor Slughorn." Umbridge shook his head, "You are also the prefect of Slytherin House and the student council president of Hogwarts. Even... It is said to be a descendant of an ancient magic family. How could you be Muggle-born."

"...What do you know?" Lu Yunkai frowned slightly when he heard the description of the descendant of the ancient magic family.

Not many people know about it.It is impossible for Baron to talk nonsense, and Mrs. Zabini has a contract with her...

"Of course the grown-up told me." Umbridge smiled, and then sighed softly, "I came to you because of that Mudblood in your family."

"..."

"Irene Hill. There is news from the Ministry of Magic that this witch who has not registered until now is hiding in your home in Dover, southern England." Umbridge put away his smile and said seriously, " You need to account for that."

"She was an employee of my herbal plantation before, and she resigned during the summer vacation." Lu Yunkai said the answer he had prepared long ago.

"Really?"

"Of course! He claimed to join the fight against the mysterious person. I thought it was dangerous, so I didn't keep her." Lu Yunkai nodded half-truthfully.

"Why didn't you report her?"

"First of all, she is an adult witch, and I am an apprentice wizard. I am not her opponent. Secondly... When did confrontation with You-Know-Who become a crime that needs to be reported?" Lu Yun asked Umbridge with a smile.

Quiet.

Umbridge sighed softly and waved his wand.

A seemingly invisible membrane encloses the two of them and separates everything else in the room.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yunkai was taken aback.

"You! Although the mysterious man has not formally controlled the entire wizarding world, he has even appointed the headmaster of Hogwarts. It is even rumored that the Minister of Magic has fallen under his Imperius Curse. What are you talking about against the mysterious People are not something worth reporting to the Ministry of Magic...Are you afraid that you won't die soon enough?" Umbridge smiled, "Let me remind you one last time, no matter whether you really want to work in the Ministry of Magic in the future, if you No one is forcing you, don't say this kind of statement."

"The Minister of Magic is controlled by the Imperius Curse??"

"Who knows! Many people fell under the Imperius Curse when the Mysterious Man failed, but recently they have come out again. Maybe the Imperius Curse can be activated at a time?" Umbridge said with a strong tone. Strong disdain and meanness.

Just like when she was at Hogwarts last year.

Lu Yunkai has always hated her tone of voice, so this time he didn't bother.

"My good days are not long." Umbridge smiled self-deprecatingly, shaking a token in his hand, "I still expect you to take care of me after you have achieved something in the Ministry of Magic. But with the way you say everything... it seems that you can't count on it!"

"...What do you mean? Haven't you been on the rise lately? How many people are envious of Muggle-born wizards working in this statistics!"

"I didn't see them snatching it! I wish someone would do it for me!" Umbridge snorted and shook his head, "I'm making a last-ditch effort, and it's very likely that I will lose nothing in the end. , I was counting on someone like you who might be able to help me in the future... But now it seems that you are really too unreliable."

"One last fight?" Lu Yunkai didn't answer Umbridge's words of pulling her back, but changed the subject.

"Yeah! I'm betting that You-Know-Who can kill Dumbledore and then rule the wizarding world of England." Umbridge nodded, "In this way, those Mudbloods won't have any chance of making a comeback, but what if My-Know-Who fails I'm definitely the worst one. None of my allies will give me a hand..."

"Then you're counting on me?"

"You can't count on it, but at least you can try." Umbridge sighed, "That's why I'm here to sell you."

"...I haven't seen anyone who speaks out so blatantly about selling favors." Lu Yun was happy.

"Irene Hill was seen in Diagon Alley the day before yesterday and sent a batch of medicinal materials to Ziggs. After investigation by the Ministry of Magic, she left and arrived at the Leaky Cauldron in Diagon Alley through the fireplace in your house Floo. I'm here to inform you today that the Ministry of Magic is going to issue a search warrant for your home, forcing you to open it up for inspection. But... we shouldn't be able to, can we?"

Umbridge finishes the story in that tone of your own.

Looking at Lu Yunkai.

Lu Yunkai's expression was calm, but his heart skipped a beat.

Didn't I already tell Irene not to leave home before Christmas?Why is she sending things to Ziggs pharmacy! ?This is troublesome.

"...Actually, you can check it out, it's okay." Lu Yunkai gritted his teeth and shook his head, "But I don't know how to open the restriction. After all, this house is a second-hand house I bought. I can only use it, not repair it."

"Forget it, you don't have to be stubborn." Umbridge looked at Lu Yunkai's appearance and smiled, "Since I came here in person, I didn't plan to check you. I will write a report later, saying that you Found herb stolen from home, suspected to be stolen by Erin Hill, fired her, and you don't know where she went. Now you are at Hogwarts, no one at home, what happened at home you I don't know."

"……it is good."

"Admonish your little lover, don't go out if you have nothing to do, it's no different from death. At the latest Halloween, at the end of September at the earliest, the netting operation against Mudblood wizards will start." Umbridge continued, "I Knowing that you should have a few good Muggle-born wizard friends at Hogwarts... such as that Granger?"

"How will the Ministry of Magic close the net?" Lu Yunkai frowned.

"Who knows? They should be escorted to Azkaban and locked up?"

"Isn't Azkaban destroyed??"

"Sure enough, you know about this." Umbridge had a smile on his face. "I was curious before that even Dumbledore didn't have the ability to destroy Azkaban to the ground. He just With that ability, you won't lose to the mysterious man."

"..."

"Azkaban is destroyed, but it can be rebuilt! It just so happens that some people are needed to rebuild Azkaban. Aren't these Muggle-born wizards just right?" Umbridge looked at Lu Yunkai choking on himself. The look, smile more happily.

"……I see, thank you."

Lu Yunkai sighed softly.

All right, this favor, he made Umbridge feel at ease.

"It's not easy to hear you say thank you." Umbridge smiled and waved the wand in his hand, canceling the magic covering the two of them, "Then I'll go first."

"it is good."

……

"Why did you suddenly want to contact me?"

Coming out of the principal's office, Lu Yunkai went all the way to the eighth floor, walked across the tapestry three times, the old place, a safe room in the Room of Requirement.

Taking out the communication mirror in his hand, Irene's beautiful face soon appeared in it.

There was still sweat on her face, obviously she was working in the herb field.

That sunny smile made Lu Yunkai, who wanted to give her a good lesson just a moment ago, hold back his annoyed words, and couldn't even utter them.

"Did you go to Diagon Alley the day before yesterday?"

"Well, the owner of Ziggs Pharmacy asked me to send a batch of herbs... What's wrong?"

"Recently, the Ministry of Magic is registering Muggle-born wizards, so don't go out."

"What's the matter! Didn't you ask to take the initiative to register? If I don't go to the Ministry of Magic, they can still come and arrest me? With the work enthusiasm of the people in the Ministry of Magic...they found you??" The smile on Irene's face disappeared instantly up.

That's right, how did Lu Yunkai know that Boss Giggs was looking for her?

"Well. But I've already settled the matter. I said you have been fired by me. I don't know where you went... So, no matter what, don't go out. Do!! Understand??"

"...I'm sorry to cause you trouble." Irene's face was very serious.

She realized the seriousness of the problem, and she lost the ease and joy just now.

"It's okay, you helped me earn so much money for herbal medicine, this is what I should do." Lu Yun laughed, "Okay, please contact me at any time if you have anything to do, no matter if anyone asks you to leave home, you don't want to Going out... It's better to say that you are not at my house now, understand?"

"It's not that bad... What's the big deal, I don't use the Floo Network?"

"Do you know who is trustworthy and who is not?" Lu Yunkai put away his smile, "You never thought about why Boss Ziggs, who said he wouldn't buy from me, suddenly asked you to send Herbs?"

"You mean..." Irene's face was livid.

"Of course it doesn't necessarily have to be Ziggs himself, maybe it's his employees or something... But do you know who it is? This is the mysterious man! Let's not trust each other..."

"Then we can't fall into the trap of the mysterious man, we have to trust others!!"

"The best way for us not to fall for the mysterious person is to not give each other a chance to test whether the other is reliable!" Lu Yunkai shook his head, "Regardless of human nature, we don't touch it, isn't it good?"

"...Why are you so timid!" Irene sighed.

"If you ask a Hogwarts student, no one will agree with your point of view." Lu Yun rolled his eyes at Irene, "In their eyes, I am the bravest person."

"Just brag, you..."

"A few days ago I beat Amycus Carrow away in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class." Lu Yunkai interrupted Irene's argument, "Okay, when there is no need to take risks, be cowardly, don't be ashamed. I understand ?"

"...All right." Irene sighed lightly, "Then... thank you this time."

"It's okay, that's it. I have other things to do."

"……Thanks a lot."

"Toil, there is no way..." Lu Yun laughed, "Really, be careful, or I will send you to France!"

"Oh!! I got it!! Got it!!"

Erin hung up the communication.

Lu Yun shook his head with a smile, put away the communication mirror, and was about to go out when suddenly, the door of the Room of Requirement opened.

A man walked in.

Seeing Lu Yunkai head-on, the man was taken aback.

"...Why are you here?"

"...you just hid the disappearing cabinet here??"

"Hmm...how did you find it?"

"I'm just thinking of a place where no one can find out... Forget it, don't worry, I'm not here to trouble you."

"I know!!" Malfoy who walked into the room waved his hands a little annoyed, but he looked nervous, "Isn't it safe here?"

"...I suggest that you find a more complicated condition that is not so easy to collide with others." Lu Yunkai nodded seriously, "Otherwise... you may be in trouble."

"Huh? Why?"

"Because the Room of Requirement might be buzzing soon."

"……Oh."

Malfoy nodded seriously.
