Hogwarts Kryptonian

"You don't want to hire me?"

"I don't think you are willing to work for a brat like me, right? Besides, I can't give you much money."

"I heard Erin Hill's salary is quite high."

"Well, but that position is just a position..."

"I'm a pure-blood witch. I think I'm more qualified than her."

"I am indeed a Slytherin student, and I take blood matters very seriously, but what I value even more is being a Muggle-born wizard."

Lu Yunkai looked calm.

It's already mid-July, and a quarter of the summer vacation is over.

That day, Chris left her promise to Old Eli to Lu Yunkai, but after struggling for a while, Lu Yunkai still went to Knockturn Alley to find the old man and made it clear that he did not intend to accept his granddaughter as his employee.

I don't want to support someone who looks down on me.

Lu Yunkai's reasons left Old Eli at a loss as to what else to say.

Therefore, this matter should have been left alone.

But a week later, Chris brought back news from Knockturn Alley, saying that Old Eli still wanted to talk to Lu Yunkai again.

And when Lu Yunkai came to Knockturn Alley again, he met Jorkins.

And the reason this witch gave him for applying for a job made his dislike of this fat witch reach a peak.

Are bloodlines a factor when applying for a job?

The reason why he was willing to take care of Irene in this way, apart from her kindness to Lu Yunkai when they first met in Diagon Alley, was because he felt that Muggle-born wizards were not welcome in the magical world, so they had to help each other.

Jiaokins encountered a reverse scale from Lu Yunkai.

So, ignoring the embarrassed old Eli's attempts to lighten the atmosphere, Lu Yunkai turned around and left the shop.

"Wait a moment!!"

"I don't think we have anything to say." Lu Yunkai looked coldly at Jorkins who was chasing him, his face still expressionless, "I really didn't expect that someone born in Gryffindor would be so concerned about blood. The wizard who cares.”

"Then you should be able to understand what I just said, and I just hope to get this job from you, right?" Jorkins had a stubborn look on his face, as if he didn't intend to give up at all.

"I'm sorry, you can't get it." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "I don't need someone who talks and doesn't hold the door to work for me."

"Does the work of growing herbal medicines still need to be kept secret?"

"Theoretically, forgetfulness is an herb forbidden by the Ministry of Magic. And even if it is not needed, this job will certainly have nothing to do with you." Lu Yunkai's impatience was written on his face, "You don't have to bother me anymore."

"Aren't you afraid that I will go directly to the Ministry of Magic to report you?"

"...Go ahead!!" Lu Yunkai was happy when he heard this, "No matter whether the Ministry of Magic can find out from me or not, Barty Crouch will definitely be the first to know about this. Come on!"

After saying that, ignoring the witch who seemed to want to say something else, Lu Yunkai went directly to the Floo fireplace in Knockturn Alley, took a handful of Floo powder, and returned home.

"...Eh? Are you back?"

"...What, you have something to leave?"

"Well, I'm going to attend a friend's birthday party..."

"……oh."

Lu Yunkai jumped out of the fireplace a little embarrassed.

And Erin, who was still in the fireplace, was even more embarrassed.

The two of them just bumped into each other...

"Then I'm leaving... By the way, the snake outside seems to be very excited today. I don't know what's going on. It's been swimming around the house." Irene blushed and said to Lu Yunkai, Then he left with a handful of floo powder.

"Broken snake!"

Lu Yunkai nagged angrily.

"Meow, why did you come back so fast?"

"……roll."

"That Joggins recruited you again? That's none of my business, meow!!"

"If it weren't for you making random promises for me, would I still have to meet that idiot?" Lu Yunkai glared at Chris and walked out of the hall.

"Meow, I've known Eli for so many years, and this is the first time he's asked me for help! Why am I so embarrassed not to agree! What did the witch say? Why are you so angry!"

Chris chased out with a little worry.

This was the first time it saw Lu Yunkai get so angry at it.

"...What on earth does that broken snake want to do?"

Lu Yunkai really didn't want to talk about what happened just now, and in front of the wall in the front yard, he also saw the crazy snake that Irene was talking about.

"God knows." Seeing that Lu Yunkai didn't want to mention Jorgins anymore, Chris quickly changed the subject, "Meow, how about you go along and see what it's going to do?"

"Isn't this the same day when you came back and told me that it suddenly couldn't enter the yard now, probably because it had a new owner?" Lu Yun gave Chris a blank look, "Why should I go with it? Meet its new owner. ?"

"Meow, I've been thinking these past few days, why does such a snake with a human soul suddenly recognize its master? Before you used the Imperius Curse on it, it didn't recognize you as its master!"

"...You obviously thought of it because you saw that I was in a bad mood and wanted to change the subject, right?"

"It's much better for you to be angry because of this broken snake than because of me." Chris nodded without hesitation.

"..."

Lu Yunkai smiled helplessly and sighed.

"But if you think about it carefully, there seems to be no problem." Chris saw that Lu Yunkai finally stopped being so stern and continued quickly: "Daphne still hasn't been able to make her golden python completely listen to her. , This snake has been so obedient and has been waiting for you for half a month... Maybe the owner of this snake is Voldemort! "

"...I'm not angry with you. You don't have to work so hard to change the subject. Why are you talking about Voldemort?" Lu Yunkai finally smiled.

"Meow, tell me what exactly Jorkins told you?"

"that is……"

Lu Yunkai relayed to Chris what the fat witch just said to him.

Then……

"I don't care about this matter." Chris was also very angry at Lu Yunkai's story.

"That's it!" Lu Yunkai glanced at the big snake and planned to go back to the house.

"Meow, you really don't want to go with this snake to see the excitement? Daphne isn't at home today anyway..."

"...Can you please stop being bored and causing trouble?"

"But the more I think about it, the more I feel that maybe this matter really has something to do with Voldemort!" Chris said seriously, "Think about it! Didn't the days when it slipped away coincide with Voldemort's return to England? Voldemort knows Parseltongue, so he has no problem communicating with snakes... If Voldemort really comes to you for help through a snake, that's a great opportunity for you to figure out why it doesn't die!"

"You don't really think Voldemort will come to me for help? Wouldn't it be better for him to seek help from Lucius? Lucius is in contact with some Death Eaters who have not been imprisoned..."

"Lucius was not imprisoned in Azkaban! Do you think Voldemort really trusts him?" Chrissy shook her head, "If it were me, I wouldn't trust him."

"That's better than just me, right?"

"It's so easy to charm a kid."

"... Can you please stop trying to find excuses here? I already told you that I don't blame you." Lu Yunkai sighed.

"Then you smile. If you smile, I won't rush you."

"…dead cat."

Lu Yunkai turned around and walked back into the house.

…

"This broken snake can run really fast."

"Meow, as I said, it's not an ordinary snake!"

"Okay! Okay! I understand!" Lu Yunkai sighed helplessly and leaned on the broomstick.

What does it feel like when a broken cat is determined to annoy you? Lu Yunkai finally realized it today.

The cat meowed for an hour. I can't hit him well, I can't even catch him when he scolds me, I can't catch him...

Lu Yunkai now felt that he was hearing hallucinations.

In the end, he could only use actions to show that he was not angry with the broken cat, which was to follow the snake and go for a ride.

As for what Chris said about Voldemort, Lu Yunkai didn't pay attention at all.

He didn't believe that Voldemort, who had finally escaped Sirius' pursuit and fled back to England, would come to find him.

According to Chris, the soul of Voldemort who was attached to the notebook in the secret room and tried to snatch Ginny's body has been swallowed by it. Even if there is Voldemort's soul elsewhere, it should be like the one in the dungeon before. Same, there is no connection with the one in the secret room.

So how does it know that it might be able to help it?

What's more, it's better to let this snake lead Lu Yunkai to his hiding place instead of going to Lu Yunkai directly. In this way, if he is rejected, he will have no place to run!

Just like that, riding a broom in the air and following the big snake that was speeding forward on the ground, Lu Yunkai flew northwest for who knows how long.

"Meow! It seems we have arrived! The snake has entered the castle."

Chris pointed to a castle not far ahead that looked a bit like the Malfoy family and said to Lu Yunkai.

"...Well, it seems so." Lu Yunkai nodded, "Okay, now that we know where it is, let's go back..."

"Meow? You're already here, why don't you go in and take a look?"

"The castle is not a wilderness. If it's a trap, you won't be able to get out even if you go in!" Lu Yunkai shook his head resolutely.

"It's not that serious! Meow! I feel something in this castle that seems familiar to me."

"Familiar? Have you been here before?"

"No. But this feeling is very strong. It seems like...how should I put it, meow, it feels like I'm home." Chris said to Lu Yunkai seriously.

"Home??" Lu Yun said happily, "Okay! I'll listen to you! As long as you stop yelling at me."

"Meow, don't worry! I will protect you!" Chris continued seriously.

Lu Yunkai controlled the broom and landed at the gate of the castle.

It was an ordinary door that only one person could enter, and it seemed a bit mismatched with this seemingly large castle. Under the door, there is a small doorway that should be for pet cats and dogs to enter and exit. The big snake just now probably got in through here.

But the door was locked from the outside.

"There can't be anyone in here, right? Even if there is someone, it won't be locked from the outside!" Lu Yunkai pointed to the padlock on the door and said to Chris.

"Open it with a spell! Don't you still need to find the key?"

"...Alajo Cave is open!" Lu Yunkai could only smile helplessly and cast a spell.

The door lock fell off and Lu Yunkai opened the door.

A damp air with a rotten smell came out of the door. There is also a slight fishy smell in it.

Lu Yunkai frowned, and then instinctively used a protective spell on himself.

And the big snake is now coiled up in the door, looking in the direction of the door. Seeing Lu Yunkai open the door, he continued walking inside.

Lu Yunkai followed. He walked along the dim corridor to the stairs, went upstairs, and came to a small, dim room.

There is an old sofa in the room.

The big snake naturally circled around the back of the sofa.

"You finally came."

A faint voice came from the sofa.

Lu Yunkai was stunned.

From his angle, he could only see the side of the armrest sofa, but he couldn't see anyone inside at all! !

He walked into the room in a few steps.

Then I was shocked.

Lying on the couch was a monster that looked to be the size of a baby. Lu Yunkai will never forget that ugly face.

Is it really Voldemort? ?

Who gave you the courage to send a snake directly to me?

Good guy... I haven't figured out how to trick you into accepting me as your follower!

This is trouble!
