Chapter 52 Lovegood

At King's Cross Station, Schelling and Draco bid farewell to their parents, passed through the wall at platform nine and three-quarters, and boarded the Hogwarts Express.

Draco learned a lot of new interesting spells during the summer vacation. He said goodbye to Sherrin and couldn't wait to show off to his friends.

As Lucius lost his position as school director, the Malfoy family also lost the privilege of their exclusive box. However, with Xie Lin's ability, he quickly found an empty carriage, sat inside and leisurely flipped through this semester's textbooks.

At the same time, on the train, a girl with silver eyes, light blond hair, big eyes, pale skin, and very light eyebrows, wearing a pair of carrot-shaped earrings and a necklace made of butterbeer corks, was holding a The suitcase, which was extremely huge compared to her petite body, made it difficult to walk along the aisle in the train. The girl's eyes are sometimes awake and sometimes confused, with a strange and erratic temperament.

She gasped and politely pushed open the carriage doors. The students looked at her from top to bottom, and then said, "There are already people here."

She apologized, exited, and looked for other cars. In fact, she knew that no one they knew would enter those carriages anymore. She walked to a car located in the middle and rear of the train. The door was opened a crack. She looked and saw no one inside. She was a little happy, opened the door, and pushed the suitcase in first. But when she stood up, she discovered that on the chair on the other side that she had not seen, there was a boy sitting by the window, quietly flipping through the third-grade Potions textbook.

She recognized this boy, and it should be said that very few people in the entire Hogwarts would not recognize the boy in front of her. Ranked first in academic performance, the legendary hero who killed the Basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets, and won the Medal of Merlin by defeating the senior students. His body was shining with countless auras, and paired with his noble family background and handsome appearance, his body was so dazzling that his peers The senior students could only look up.

He seemed to be so focused on the book in his hand that he didn't even notice anyone coming in. But the girl who just came in realized that she should go out, because for some reason she suddenly felt ashamed of herself, so she said in a panic, "Sorry, I thought there was no one in this compartment, I'll go out now..." "

"Ah..." What she didn't notice was that two female students passed by behind her. She was about to exit, but she was suddenly rushed and she sat down on the ground. This was originally a small matter, and the two girls were more responsible. What's more, the confused girl fell to the ground, and the two girls were fine.

But the two girls stood at the door and began to scold and ridicule, "What's the matter with you? Don't you even have eyes when you walk?"

"That's right, why are you still passing by if you don't see anyone else?"

"Did you know that you almost knocked me down and I was injured? Are you responsible?"

The girl who fell stood up and kept saying: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

The two girls looked at each other, sneered in their eyes, and said mercilessly, "You're lucky this time, we won't care about you anymore..." They left with a satisfied smile.

Xie Lin looked at the scene happening at the door and frowned slightly. He clearly saw that the two girls did it on purpose. When they passed the door, they deliberately pushed the girl who was carrying luggage, and even showed the face of a victim.

Schelling deduced the girl's identity from her unique dress. Her name was Luna Lovegood. She was a minor supporting character in the original novel because of her weird behavior and different thinking. She is an ordinary person, so she is often bullied. She is the object of teasing and ridicule by the Ravenclaw collective, and even gives her the nickname "Crazy Girl".

Seeing her clumsily pulling her luggage and trying to go out again, Xie Lin didn't know why, but he felt an indescribable emotion in his heart about what happened to this girl. Xie Lin said softly, "There is still room here, you can stay." In this compartment.”

Luna Lovegood said "Ah" in surprise. "Well...well, thank you..." Luna Lovegood looked directly into Xie Lin's eyes and became quiet. She accepted Xie Lin's kindness. The little girl sat quietly on the bench, with a magazine spread out on her lap, and her wand was actually clamped to her ear.

Schelling considered himself not a nosy person. Everything he had done so far was to help him increase his strength as much as possible before Voldemort returned. But this time he did violate his usual style. He never expected that he actually felt sympathy for this girl.

Xie Lin is a time traveler. He has always been a little out of tune with this world. He has too many secrets in his heart, which prevents him from making friends sincerely. He can't even be honest with his closest relatives at home. In the long run, regardless of his No matter how strong he appeared, he could not hide the loneliness deep in his heart.

He tried hard to think about his emotions, and unconsciously cast his magic eyes on the girl opposite. The girl's magic power was not strong, but there seemed to be special power hidden in her blood. Xie Lin could feel the fluctuations of her magic power. The breath that is very close to nature is a magical property that makes people feel pure and peaceful.

Schelling still remembered that this girl was a pure-blood wizard. In the original book, she ended up marrying Scamander's grandson and becoming a magical biologist. She usually didn't speak in a very inflected manner, but she had amazingly keen intuition. .

Perhaps this girl at this moment does not know that there is also some ancient mysterious power in her blood. Since she and I have met by chance, and I am also studying blood magic, I should help her discover her blood power.

In his plan, the power he wants to establish in Hogwarts is not limited to the people of Slytherin College. The number of Slytherin is originally the smallest among the four colleges. Minus those pure-blood diehards who are irreconcilable with his ideas, the followers he can recruit are actually very limited.

In his mind, in addition to Gryffindor and Slytherin who are naturally at odds, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students are also the objects he wants to win over, and Luna is very suitable as his breakthrough in Ravenclaw College. As long as he helps her master the power of blood, her strength will definitely be significantly enhanced, and then it will be a natural thing for her to establish influence in Ravenclaw.

Shaylin broke the silence and took the initiative to speak: "You are Miss Lovegood from Ravenclaw, right? I am Shaylin Malfoy, you can just call me Shaylin."

Luna never thought that Shaylin would talk to her. She stared at Shaylin with her big eyes in confusion, as if she was wondering if she had heard it wrong. This action might seem a bit rude to others, but Shaylin knew her character and didn't care. He smiled lightly, pointed at the magazine she was reading, and asked: "What book are you reading?"

Luna seemed to come back to her senses, her face turned red, and she said: "You can just call me Luna." After saying this, she felt her face burning, and even her neck turned red. She quickly closed the book, revealing the cover, and introduced it to Shaylin happily: "This is "The Quibbler", which specializes in some little-known secrets and anecdotes in the magic world. My father is the editor-in-chief of this magazine. If you want to read this book, I can give you every issue. One book."

"It sounds interesting. What secrets are there in it?"

"You know that ancient magic was performed with ancient runes, right? This article talks about ancient runes. If you turn these ancient runes upside down, you can see that they are actually a spell that can drive away harassment flies. By the way, you probably don't know what harassment flies are. Harassment flies are..."

Just then, the door of the carriage opened again, and Daphne and Meredith appeared at the door. Seeing Luna dressed in strange clothes and handsome Shaylin sitting in the carriage, both of them couldn't help but feel a very strange feeling in their hearts.

If Shaylin is one of the most popular figures in Hogwarts at present, I'm afraid no one will refute this, even Gryffindor, who is not on good terms with Slytherin. It has been a long time since there has been a dazzling existence like Shaylin among the lower grade students. Some people even began to speculate that Shaylin will be the next Dumbledore.

What is even more undoubted is that Shaylin is the most popular dream lover in Hogwarts. In addition to his superb strength and dazzling fame, Shaylin also has a noble background, handsome appearance, and a gentle and approachable personality.

Daphne has not forgotten that Tracy Davis and Audrey Runcorn, who are classmates in the same class, are eyeing Shaylin and often take the opportunity to get close to Shaylin. Slytherin's prefect Gemma Farley seems to have invited Shaylin to go out together during the summer vacation more than once, but Shaylin has always been rude to them. Although he is still humble and polite on the surface, everyone can feel that he deliberately keeps a distance.

Among so many girls, in addition to Daphne and Meredith, it seems that there is only a beautiful woman with long black straight hair in Ravenclaw, Murray McDougal, who has a good relationship with Shaylin.

If someone had spread rumors about the affair between Sherin and Luna, Daphne and Meredith would never have believed it - but at this moment, the two girls saw Sherin and Luna talking and laughing with their own eyes, and they just felt unbelievable.

Sherin looked at the two girls standing there, and he knew what was going on in their minds. He immediately shouted softly: "What are you thinking about? Come in and sit down! You are blocking the aisle."

The two girls came to their senses and sat down in the carriage with a little embarrassment on their faces. Sherin said: "Let me introduce you to my new friend today - Miss Luna Lovegood. She is in Ravenclaw, one year younger than us, but she knows a lot of interesting things..."

Daphne and Meredith had come to their senses at this time. They first introduced themselves to Luna, and then cooperated with Sherin obediently to heat up the atmosphere in singing the same tune. They talked with Luna all the way to the fictitious magical creatures that they had never heard of, such as the Crooked Snorkeller and the Harassment Fly.

Luna had never met a classmate who showed interest in her topic. She immediately opened her heart and chatted with the three people. The relationship between the three people became familiar, and the whole morning was spent in pleasant chats.

At lunch time, Xie Lin generously bought a table full of candies from the witch pushing a cart. Sharing food is indeed a good way to get closer. Soon, Luna, tempted by the food, also let go of her reserve and joined the ranks of feasting.

After lunch, Luna began to read her "The Quibbler" again.

Daphne led the topic to the new prefect of Slytherin this year, "Hey, have you heard? Just now, a prefect meeting was held in the prefect's special compartment on the train. This year, the new male prefect of Slytherin is Cassius Warrington..."

A subtle gleam flashed in Xie Lin's eyes, and he said coldly: "So, Gallup of the Lestrange family was not selected?"

Meredith took over the conversation, "Now that you talk about this, it does feel a bit strange. Although there is no explicit rule, the position of prefect has always been circulated among pure-blood families. The Warrington family is not only half-blood, but also far from being strong. If he is made a prefect, I am afraid that many people will not accept it."

Daphne said: "Yes, I think so too. Besides, even if Gallup is not selected, Slytherin still has other candidates! Miles Blatche is not bad. In addition to being a pure blood, I heard that he is also very strong..."

Xie Lin said lightly: "Then who is the female prefect?"

"It's Irina Selwyn of the Selwyn family. The people of the Selwyn family are mysterious. As a pure-blood family, not many people know what their main business is. Don't look at her low profile at ordinary times. I heard privately that she is a ruthless person." Daphne explained like a treasure.

Schelling had a premonition during Merlin's test last semester. When selecting contestants, Gallup was not selected but Cassius was selected. At that time, he felt that there was something strange behind it. Now the selection of prefects is the same. Schelling doesn't believe that there is no conspiracy behind it.

The only doubt is, is it Snape or Dumbledore behind the conspiracy? And does this person have good intentions for him and want to help him deal with the opposition within Slytherin; or does he have evil intentions and want to intensify the conflict between him and other pure-blood families?
