Hogwarts Kryptonian.

Chapter 69

"You really don't want to put away the hanging ring?"

Daphne took a look at Lu Yunkai's outfit.

Student robes, nothing to choose from.

The hair is clean and tidy, and there is a faint fragrance on the body, no problem.

The only eye-catching thing was a gold ring hanging around his neck with a thin chain of unknown material.

After the summer vacation this year, she saw Lu Yunkai wearing it a few times in school. At that time, she felt that the ring was simple in shape at best, and earthy at worst.

"This is what I brought with me when I came to England from the east." Lu Yun said with something in his heart.

"...All right." Daphne glanced at the people in the carriage who had almost walked away, and she could only nod, "Just don't talk for a while, and leave everything to me."

"No need? Isn't that too embarrassing..."

"Oh! I know better than you what my father is like. I've handled him tightly since I was a child. Leave it to me!"

"Oh."

Lu Yun laughed, carried his backpack, and got off the express train with Daphne.

There were not many people on platform nine and three-quarters, just like on the train, except for the students of Slytherin, there were hardly any people from other houses.

After all, today is a working day.

Daphne saw her parents at a glance, pulled Lu Yunkai and ran over.

Without further ado, give that blond, elegant-looking, but dark-skinned man a big hug.

"Good girl! Dad misses you so much!" The man's face was also filled with a happy smile.

"If you miss me, you come back to see me! You go to a place where the birds don't shit and dig pits every day, and you don't want to go home!" Daphne said full of complaints.

"OK! OK! I was wrong!!"

"I know I'm wrong and don't change it!" Daphne snorted, and then hugged her smiling mother Hailin lightly, and then pulled Lu Yunkai who was beside her to her side, "Dad, this is Lu Yunkai."

"Oh." The smile on the man's face disappeared almost instantly, and his scrutinizing eyes looked at him.

Lu Yunkai was a little embarrassed, but he still tried his best to smile.

"Dad! What are you doing!!" Seeing that Lu Yunkai was being watched uncomfortable, Daphne got a little angry.

"Nothing..." The man's eyes fixed on the ring hanging on Lu Yunkai's chest, staring at the pattern for a full twenty seconds, "I'm Baron Greengrass, Daphne's father. "

"Hello, Uncle." Lu Yunkai greeted quickly.

"Daphne, didn't you come back with your luggage?" Hailin changed the subject.

"Here!" Daphne patted a delicate leather satchel on her body.

"Just this satchel...is this a space bag?? You know how to use the space curse?" Hai Lin was a little surprised.

"It's not me! It's Yunkai. I told him that it would be troublesome to carry a suitcase and carry a bag when I go home, so he gave me this." Daphne returned to Lu Yunkai's side with a smile, and took Lu Yunkai's hand.

very natural.

"Oh? This interspatial bag is quite beautiful." Hailin looked at the small bag that Daphne was carrying, and nodded seriously.

"Mom, if you like..."

"I'll give you another one later, Auntie!" Lu Yunkai answered at the right time.

"No! I'll make a space bag myself..."

"Mother! Yunkai is different! It has a lot of space inside!" Daphne wanted to take the opportunity to show off Lu Yunkai, so she rushed to say: "I tested it, and it can fit more than 20 of my suitcases without any problem."

"... Can your suitcase fit in??" Baron looked surprised.

"Yeah! What's the matter?" Daphne looked puzzled.

"Okay, let's go, we have something to say when we go home." Baron lingered on Lu Yunkai's ring for two more seconds, then smiled and nodded at his wife.

The four of them walked out of the platform and came to a corner of King's Cross Station where there were no people.A somewhat worn-out armchair was placed there abruptly, but people passing by occasionally did not find it strange.

"Go and grab the chair." Daphne gently reminded Lu Yunkai.

Lu Yunkai nodded slightly, holding the back of the chair like Daphne.

In an instant, Lu Yunkai felt as if his body was pulled by something and flew up into the sky, and then hit the ground again.

That refreshing feeling was even worse than a roller coaster, and he couldn't even open his eyes.

When he came back to his senses, he found that he was already outside the gate of the Greenglass family's manor.

For a month this summer, he would come here almost every day. Whether it was the garden or the huge fountain in front of the castle that looked like a blooming rose, he was already very familiar with it.

Entering the courtyard, it takes a short distance to the castle, but the courtyard is full of beautiful scenery at noon in autumn, and walking in it does not feel boring.

"Daphne! Go and pack up and get ready for lunch!"

Seeing that he walked into the castle full of creepers, in the huge hall, Baron, who had been leading the way but did not speak, smiled and said to his daughter.

"Ah? That cloud opens..."

"I'll take him to the study first."

"This..." Daphne looked at Lu Yunkai a little at a loss.

"You go." Lu Yunkai smiled at Daphne.

"Well, I'll be soon." Daphne seemed a little worried, nodded, and then ran up the stairs.

"I'm going to see Astoria." Hailin also understood that her husband probably had something to say to Lu Yunkai alone, so she could only smile and pat Lu Yunkai on the shoulder, and chose to leave: "If she knows that you are coming Yes, I must be very happy."

"Maybe!" Lu Yun laughed.

happy?How can it be!That girl wished that I would stay away from her sister!
After Daphne and her mother left, Lu Yunkai followed Baron into the study on the first floor.

"Please sit down. I heard from Astoria that you are here to give Daphne a remedial potion class this summer? You should be familiar with this place, right?" Baron couldn't hear much politeness in his words, but it was Nothing rude either.

"Well, it's okay." Lu Yunkai smiled and sat on a chair in the room.

Baron sat across from him and looked at him for a while.

"Uncle, if you have anything to ask, just ask." Lu Yunkai really didn't like being scrutinized like this, especially when he still used Legilimency.

"I heard from my wife that you practiced Occlumency, and it seems to be true."

Baron withdrew his gaze, waved his hand, took out a pipe, put it in the corner of his mouth, lit it, and took a puff. He looked natural and relaxed, as if he wanted to put more psychological pressure on Lu Yunkai.

But Lu Yunkai doesn't like this.

Smiling and watching him do it all, unimpressed.

"How did you get to know Daphne?"

"One time the two of us sleepwalked and bumped into each other..."

Lu Yunkai told the story of the time when he watched Qiluo in the middle of the night and met Daphne.

"Hmm." Baron was noncommittal after listening to the story, "I also heard that you often help her study?"

"I usually refine potions in the waiting room. She will come to ask me some questions from time to time, and I will answer them. I can't say that I can help. Anyway, I am waiting for the potion brewing time. I am idle." Lu Yun laughed. .

"Potion? Well, by the way, I remember Daphne telling me that you got Phoenix's tears for your roommate? That's not an easy thing to get!"

Baron asked with a smile.

He glanced at Lu Yunkai's hanging ring again.

"I'm not very clear about the specifics. Blaise's mother exchanged some things with my friends. I just introduced them to each other."

"I'm also very interested in meeting that friend of yours."

"I'll introduce you to me when I have a chance."

Lu Yunkai answered without leaking.

"Also, you are Professor Slughorn's adopted son? What about teaching others?"

"Professor Snape told me about this, I actually don't remember it. It wasn't until I accidentally drank the anti-curse potion last year..."

"Forgetfulness grass is no better than Phoenix's tears. Besides, you actually have the guts to drink it? When Daphne wrote to me about this, she praised you." Baron interrupted Lu Yunkai "However, such reckless Gryffindor-like things should be avoided."

"If the words of Professors Sprout and Snape are not credible, then there is no need for me to stay at Hogwarts." Lu Yunkai retorted indifferently.

Baron was taken aback and smiled.

"So, where did this ring you hang come from? That friend gave it to you?"

"No, it's from my family."

"Professor Slughorn..."

"I brought it from the east." Lu Yunkai explained.

"East??" Baron narrowed his eyes.

"What? Is there something wrong?" Lu Yun raised his eyelids, but still asked with a smile.

"Can I see your ring?"

"Oh! Of course!" Lu Yunkai quickly took off the ring from his neck.

"Hey!!" Baron exclaimed as he took the necklace with the ring in his hand.

Lu Yun laughed.

Sure enough, this "prospective father-in-law" is a discerning person!Not only did he notice his ring, but he also noticed the ordinary-looking necklace.

That necklace sold for more than 1 Galleons in the system!Put it in Knockturn Alley, God knows what price it can sell for.

However, Baron may have been very knowledgeable, and he quickly turned his attention back from the necklace to the ring.

"Can I try it with a spell?"

"Of course. As long as I don't break it."

"Certainly not." Baron pulled out his wand and waved at the ring, "Time Retrieval!"

A red light shot from the tip of his wand.

However, before touching the ring, it was bounced off by an invisible barrier.

"This necklace..." Baron looked shocked, "Can I take the ring off the necklace?"

"Oh! Go ahead." Lu Yunkai still smiled, watching Baron perform.

Finally, the spell to try again fell on the ring.

After the ring was hit by the red light, it emitted a light blue to somewhat purple light, but it didn't last long and the color faded away.

Baron cast five or six spells on the ring as if something had touched the switch.

Each spell is a different color, and the light it emits after hitting the ring is also different.

Finally, the final color faded, and the ring returned to its old, not very shiny appearance.

"...What's the matter, uncle?" Although Lu Yunkai secretly laughed in his heart, when he asked, his tone was full of worry.

"Your ring... you... are fine." Baron managed to clean up his gaffe and shook his head, "Your family in the east... oh, yes, you are an orphan."

"En." Lu Yunkai nodded, "What is the origin of this ring?"

"Ahem, it's nothing, oh! That's right!" Baron looked out the window, "Let's go have lunch! Let's chat after eating!"

"okay."

Lu Yunkai smiled and took back the ring, strung it on the necklace, and hung it back around his neck.

"Your necklace...is it with the ring?"

"Hmm. What's wrong?"

"It's nothing."

Baron shook his head.

His expression was indescribably weird.
