Chapter 92 Little Girl

What Lu Yunkai likes more about Daphne is that although this girl occasionally shows a little bit of "jealousy" towards his normal interactions with other female classmates, most of the time, it is more like a declaration of existence. reminder.

But it has never really affected Lu Yunkai's interactions with others.

The cup of tea with nothing in it except the anti-cold medicine stayed in Lu Yunkai's hand, helping him spend another evening.

That night, Lu Yunkai confirmed a magic circle that was said to be as powerful as the Sky Fire Potion when triggered. The materials for this magic circle are not expensive (of course because Lu Yunkai has a system), and it is not difficult to arrange. Lu Yunkai listed this magic circle together with another magic circle he had prepared before, two potions, and a magic spell. included in the package solution of the "basilisk killing plan".

With the new weapon, Lu Yunkai, who was worried about having to feed the chickens and the lack of progress with Hermione, was in a much better mood.

That night there was a smile on his face that he had not seen for a long time.

Seeing that he was in a good mood, Flint, the captain of Slytherin's Quidditch team, also came to the door.

"How about joining the Quidditch team?"

"No, I have no interest in flying."

"Come on! I want to train you to be the captain of the next Quidditch team. You don't have to participate in the game. You just need to join the team, lead everyone in training, and then do mobilization before the game."

"...Why don't you leave this kind of job to Draco?"

"Don't refuse. I've already told Professor Snape that he should come to talk to you. I just want to tell you in advance."

"..."

"For Slytherin!" Flint smiled and patted Lu Yunkai's shoulder, then left.

Well, Lu Yunkai's good mood was just gone.

…

In fact, Lu Yunkai can understand Flint.

After all, including him, most of the current backbone of the Slytherin Quidditch team are in sixth and seventh grade. Facing the pressure of the NEWTS exam, they may not have the energy to compete on the team next year.

Even this year, many of them have begun to fail to train and are not active in competitions.

This also made the original team that came back last year to win the Quidditch Cup very unsatisfactory results this year. With three games left before the end of the season, they had already lost the chance to win the championship early.

Except for Malfoy, almost none of the newcomers in the academy have much enthusiasm for Quidditch. This makes Flint, the current captain, extremely worried about the team's lack of success.

The solution he could think of was to find someone who had appeal and influence among his classmates to serve as captain, reorganize the team, and regain the Quidditch trophy at least in two or three years. Besides Lu Yunkai, he seemed to be unable to find anyone more suitable.

Although Lu Yunkai’s flying lesson scores were at the bottom...

The captain of the Hufflepuff team doesn’t even play! !

And Lu Yunkai also understands that Flint's arrangement is really for his own good: this year, due to the attack on Chris, the discussion of "whether Lu Yunkai is a Slytherin" has been somewhat raised. As a friend of Lu Yunkai, he wanted to help Lu Yunkai clear his name in this way: Who dares to say that the captain of the Quidditch team who fights for the honor of Slytherin is not a Slytherin?

Therefore, the next day, that is, Sunday morning, when Lu Yun drove to Snape's office to study Legilimency, which had made little progress, Snape mentioned this matter to him, and he did not refuse.

I really can’t refuse!

Because of this, Lu Yunkai had to come to the Quidditch pitch for the first time in a long time that afternoon and watch Slytherin's third to last game of the season.

The opponent is Ravenclaw, the perennial leader in the Hogwarts Quidditch world.

This is a game without much suspense. After all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Even though the Slytherin gang didn't train very seriously this year, with the brooms sponsored by Malfoy's father and their hard foundation, they still can A huge victory over his opponent.

Malfoy even defeated the Seeker in a duel. This is the first time he has won the Golden Snitch in any competition this year.

Well, Lu Yunkai tried hard to convince himself that Slytherin's poor record this year had nothing to do with the Seeker, so he focused his attention on how to set up a trap in the Forbidden Forest that could kill the Basilisk. …

After the game, Lu Yunkai was also formally introduced to the team members by Flint at the celebration party in the lounge.

"Everyone, come and get to know each other, this is our new member, reserve goalkeeper, Lu Yunkai!"

Goalkeeper is a wonderful position.

Just like football in the Muggle world, the most stable role on the Quidditch team is not the batter or the chaser, or even the seeker who is easily targeted and injured, but the goalkeeper. The goalkeeper of any team will never be replaced easily.

Moreover, in addition to Sepp, a fourth-year student who has just become the main player this year and who once gave him an Acromantula as a gift from Lu Yunkai, there is also a third-year student who is currently the backup goalkeeper.

In other words, Lu Yunkai is a substitute for the substitute. Even as a substitute, he can stay until the sixth grade...

As long as he doesn't want to, it's probably his turn to play in this life.

It should be said that Flint really took great pains to arrange Lu Yunkai.

The team members should have understood Flint's idea of ​​using Lu Yunkai's good relationship in Slytherin to rebuild the team, and they showed great goodwill to his arrival.

As a result, the celebration and welcome party in the Slytherin lounge was very lively.

"Don't worry, follow me, I will help you become one of the best team members in Slytherin's history!"

Malfoy smiled and patted Lu Yunkai on the shoulder and said.

For his statement, apart from Goyle and Crabbe, Lu Yunkai really didn't think anyone would really believe it...

But just join in the fun. Anyway, seeing that Lu Yunkai, a half-baked pilot, can join the Quidditch team, many Slytherin students who were not very interested in this project before began to wonder if they could also play in the game...

Well, this is the effect Flint wants: first trick people into joining the team, and then train and select.

However, this celebration started in the late afternoon and was interrupted before it even reached the evening.

"Yunkai! Damn! Another attack!"

Daphne rushed into the lounge and grabbed Lu Yunkai and shouted.

She didn't care that he shouldn't show so much concern about the attack.

This also made Lu Yunkai, who was discussing the training content of Quidditch with the seniors a moment ago, stunned.

He didn't think about it for a while.

"What?"

"Attack!! Someone was attacked again."

"Ah? How is it possible!" Lu Yunkai finally reacted.

A cry of surprise.

Then he immediately realized that his behavior seemed a little wrong.

Almost everyone present was startled by Lu Yunkai's shout.

"How is it impossible... Yunkai, do you know something?" Malfoy, who has always regarded himself as the "team introducer" beside Lu Yunkai, was the first person to express his doubts.

"Hagrid is not in school anymore! How could there be an attack..." Lu Yunkai quickly lied, smiled awkwardly, and asked Daphne: "What happened?"

"I just came back from the infirmary and saw someone petrified again."

"Ah? Are you okay?"

"... I'm fine." Hearing that the first thing Lu Yunkai was concerned about was not who was attacked but whether she was okay, Daphne's face bloomed with a big smile, "Hermione had been petrified for a long time when I went there."

"Hermione?" Lu Yunkai was completely dumbfounded.

How is it possible! !

Hermione...

Could it be Harry? ?

Impossible! ? No way! !

If Voldemort could convince Harry to release the monster to attack Hermione, Lu Yunkai would chop off his head and use it as a Quaffle!

"Yes! Otherwise I wouldn't be so... cough cough." Daphne interrupted herself a little embarrassedly.

Lu Yunkai had not concealed from Hermione the plan he and Hermione had made to deal with the basilisk, but that didn't mean she could just tell him about it. She understood that.

"Sorry, everyone, I have to go and take a look." Lu Yunkai said awkwardly to everyone staring at him.

"Just a Gryffindor Muggle, why do you care so much?" Malfoy seemed to have his contempt for Hermione ingrained in his bones, and wanted to stop Lu Yunkai with some displeasure.

"Let him go." Captain Flint, another protagonist of the celebration party, disagreed, "We can't let people think that we Slytherins are celebrating the petrification of Gryffindors, right? It's not nice to say it out."

"Well, thank you, Captain." Lu Yunkai smiled and nodded.

He had changed his name for Flint, after all, he was now a member of the team.

Then Lu Yunkai ran out of the lounge with Daphne.

He went up the stairs all the way and came to the school corridor not far from the infirmary.

Some people had already gathered here. Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape, Lockhart, and Harry and Ron.

"Yunkai! You're here?"

Harry saw Lu Yunkai and Daphne coming together, and the gloomy expression on his face brightened a little.

"Is Hermione okay?"

"Petrified, just like the previous person." Harry nodded, "It's not life-threatening."

"This..." Lu Yunkai looked at Hermione standing there.

She was holding a mirror in her hand, probably to prevent direct eye contact with the basilisk. It must be said that she was very careful.

But wait a minute!! Why is Harry here? ?

Seeing Harry's face reflected in the mirror, Lu Yunkai realized this seemingly reasonable thing.

Isn't the diary in his hand now? Who else can release the basilisk to attack Hermione besides him?

But looking at Harry's expression, it really doesn't look like he did it!!

"Professor Lockhart, it seems that you still need to investigate this matter. Professor Dumbledore is not here, and you are the only one in the castle who is best at dealing with dark magic."

Snape, who was standing aside, did not pay attention to the conversation between the students, but said to Lockhart who was still smiling awkwardly but politely.

"Of course! What a pity, if I was here just now..."

"We need to check immediately what that line of words means." McGonagall was too lazy to pay attention to the sarcasm between the two people and interrupted Lockhart.

"What words?" Lu Yunkai glanced around the petrified Hermione, and it seemed that there were no words anywhere!

"Her bones will remain in the Chamber of Secrets forever." Daphne whispered in Lu Yunkai's ear, "What was just written on the wall over there may have been erased by the professors."

"...Harry, did you pick up an old notebook before?"

"Hmm! How did you..."

"Where is that notebook?"

"It disappeared when I came back from watching the Quidditch game in the afternoon. I don't know where it went... What happened?"

"..."

Lu Yunkai understood.

Damn.

...
