Hogwarts Kryptonian

"Wow! So beautiful!!"

"...Don't be so exaggerated. It's far worse than your home."

"How could it be! I only have the yard to see from my house, but you have such a beautiful sea view! It's like the whole sea is your yard!"

Daphne put her hands on the railing of the balcony and looked at the sea view outside the window, her face full of excitement.

"Yeah." Lu Yunkai stood beside her and looked at her.

Her happy look is more beautiful than the sea view.

"What are you doing!" Daphne noticed that Lu Yunkai had been staring at her, and her face turned red. "How did you get this house? This house must be very expensive, right?"

"It's okay. A wizard gave me this house in exchange for something..."

"Huh?? What can I exchange for this house? This... must be worth a lot of money, right?"

"The important thing about bartering is not how much this thing is worth, but how useful it is to you." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "I got it anyway, but you'd better not mention this to anyone... …Well, Astoria just heard something and it’s a bit troublesome…”

"Don't worry! If I ask her not to tell anything, I won't dare to kill her!" Daphne was very confident about this matter, "But what did you exchange for such a nice house? It's really amazing!"

"...You look so scary when you talk about your sister." Lu Yunkai really didn't want to talk about the origin of this house, so he changed the subject with a smile, "She can't come in anyway... Well, if you weren't wearing that ear clip , can’t get in either.”

"I asked you why you suddenly gave me ear clips. That damn girl in Astoria also said that you must have done something sorry for me to give me something to please me." Astoria snorted, "However, the protection spell of this house is so powerful! It feels even stricter than ours..."

"It's okay! So it should be quite safe here. If we can't sit on the cruise ship and watch the sea, how about just watching the sea here?" Lu Yunkai continued to work hard to divert Daphne's attention from the origin of the house.

"...Hmm!!" Daphne smiled and jumped on Lu Yunkai's body, hugging him.

Then she touched his mouth with her lips.

Lu Yunkai was stunned.

Well, this girl seems to have accepted that this house is Lu Yunkai's property. only……

Never mind, it's not a bad thing anyway.

"Meow!! What did I see!!"

At this moment, a very discordant cat meow sounded behind Lu Yunkai.

Daphne, whose face was already red with fright, suddenly bounced away from Lu Yunkai.

"...Dead cat! What are you doing!!" Lu Yunkai's face turned slightly red and he glared at Chris.

"Meow! You've been tricked!" Chris's tone was filled with unspeakable excitement.

"Go away!" Lu Yunkai glared at Chris.

"Meow, I'm here to tell you. Blaise just sent you a message, saying that his mother's shop may not be able to open in a short time, and he asked you not to refine potions recently."

"Oh, I already knew that." Lu Yunkai glanced at Daphne, who was blushing and pretending to concentrate on looking at the sea view to avoid embarrassment.

This girl is really cute like this...

"Aren't you curious why he said it again?" Chris asked.

"Why?"

"Because Blaise's father had an accident yesterday afternoon and died."

"..."

"Meow, so I'm very pleased to see Daphne taking such initiative! Don't leave any opportunity for some strange people to take advantage of! Very good!" Chrissy nodded her cat's head, and then jumped up and down with light steps. He jumped and left Lu Yunkai's room.

The room suddenly became very quiet.

The summer sea breeze blew through the window sill, but it seemed that it couldn't take away the embarrassment.

"What do you want Chris to tell you?"

"Yes. Blaise's father is dead."

"Huh??" Daphne was stunned.

Then when he looked at Lu Yunkai, his expression was strange.

"...What for?" Lu Yunkai felt a little guilty.

But this matter really has nothing to do with him!

"This matter..." Daphne looked at Lu Yunkai, and even she knew that there must be something in the "tradition" of Blaise's mother's dead husband.

"I'll just write a letter to Blaise later to comfort him. The rest has nothing to do with us." Lu Yunkai felt the same chill he felt when he first met Mrs. Zabini at the beginning of summer vacation.

"...Hmm." Daphne nodded and gently rested her head on Lu Yunkai's shoulder, "Does that mean Mrs. Zabini's shop will be closed for a while?"

"Maybe!"

"Then you won't have enough money?" Daphne looked at Lu Yunkai a little worriedly, "Did you spend a lot of money to sign up for the tour group this time?"

"Don't worry! I still have money! I can support you!"

"Who wants you to support me?!" Daphne rolled her eyes at Lu Yunkai, "But seriously, if you don't have enough money, I can tell dad..."

"Ouch! No need! Let's go! Follow me to the backyard to have a look!"

"Backyard? Why?"

"There is a large medicinal field there. I planted some medicinal herbs there at the beginning of the summer vacation, and they have begun to sprout." Lu Yunkai sighed, "Originally, I planned to make magic potions for sale, so since the magic medicine is temporarily If it’s not convenient to sell medicine, I can just sell herbal medicine without worrying about money.”

"Oh! Then I'll go take a look!"

Just like that, the two of them walked off the balcony side by side and came to the backyard.

When Lu Yunkai said sprout, he was actually being polite. Although it had only been less than a month, the various plants in the two fields where Lu Yunkai had sown the seeds had already grown seedlings ranging from one or two inches to four or five inches.

There were one or two species that even Daphne could tell what kind of plant they were.

Of course, it will take at least four or five months before these herbs can be harvested, and for many, it may take one or two years. However, after hearing what Lu Yunkai said about the herbs here, Daphne temporarily put aside her worries about Lu Yunkai's income shortage.

Because of Lu Yunkai, she is relatively clear about the potion materials. If these herbs can be grown successfully and sold, it will be enough for Lu Yun to bloom for a while.

As for where the seeds came from and how much they cost...

These questions never entered Daphne's mind.

"But when you go back to school after the summer vacation, what will happen here?" Daphne looked at the herbal seedlings, and she was worried about how these things could smoothly turn into the golden galleons in Lu Yun's pocket.

"I'm going to hire someone to take care of it for me."

"Hire someone? Will it cost a lot of money?" Daphne thought for a moment and shook her head, "How about I tell my mother to get a house elf for you..."

"These things are not something a house elf can take care of!" Lu Yunkai shook his head, "And there are them in this house."

"real or fake……"

"Xueli!!" Lu Yunkai shouted.

"Owner."

With a bang, Xueli appeared in front of Lu Yunkai and Daphne.

"This is the hostess, say hello." Lu Yunkai pointed at Daphne.

"Oh! Hello, mistress!"

"Lu Yunkai! What are you doing!!" Daphne was startled by Lu Yunkai's sudden "confession".

"What for? Aren't you happy? Then forget it..."

"No!!" Daphne grabbed Lu Yunkai.

"Master, do you have any other instructions?" Xue Li was at the side and couldn't figure out why Lu Yunkai suddenly acted like this. She just felt a little embarrassed here.

"Well, from now on, what she says to you will be equal to what I say, do you understand?"

"Yes, Master." Xue Li accepted Lu Yunkai's order.

Then it disappeared with a bang.

"You'd better hire someone to take care of the medicine field for you! Anyway, there are house elves here, and even if you are in Hogwarts, the employee won't dare to do anything bad." Daphne's face turned red and she changed the subject. Back to the medicine field.

"Well, I've asked someone to help me make arrangements." Lu Yunkai nodded.

My heart relaxed slightly.

Helping Aileen is something Lu Yunkai will definitely do as long as he can do it.

This is gratitude to the sister who has always been kind to him, and it can also be regarded as the friendship between wizards who are also born as Muggles.

It's just that although Lu Yunkai has a clear conscience, Mrs. Zabini is always so shady and angry that he doesn't dare to tell Daphne about it. This matter, together with this house, has almost become something that Lu Yunkai doesn't know why. It made Daphne sick to tell her.

Now, it’s all in one step!

Although Daphne obviously still couldn't figure out what Lu Yunkai exchanged for such a good house, she didn't pursue it any further.

What she is more worried about now is Lu Yunkai's source of income...

From this point of view, the father of Brays, Lu Yunkai, who had never really met... died at the right time!

Well, that seems a little bad to think about.

However, after letting go of the burden in his heart, Lu Yunkai's mood improved.

Accompanying Daphne, wandering around the medicine fields, looking for herbs she might recognize.

The afternoon was spent in such a relaxed and comfortable way. Soon in the evening, the two passed through the fireplace again and returned to Greengrass' house, planning to have dinner.

However.

"……what happens?"

Lu Yunchai, who came through the fireplace a step later than Daphne, had just recovered from the smoke when he suddenly saw Daphne squatting on the floor in front of the fireplace with Astoria in her arms.

Daphne looked worried, while Astoria seemed to faint.

"I just came back and saw her lying in the fireplace..."

"Ah? How could it be? Didn't she still... ah!! Could it be that she wanted to follow us to my house secretly??"

Lu Yunkai reacted immediately.

When he and Daphne left today, her face was full of reluctance. According to this little girl's temperament, it was really possible! !

"what should I do then!"

"What should I do...where is your mother?"

"She went out to visit her friends this morning and said she would be back later today... didn't I just tell you?"

"...Come, give her to me." Lu Yunkai came to Daphne helplessly, "I'll take her to Diagon Alley to find someone."

"I am coming too!!"

"...Well, you follow me to the Leaky Cauldron."

Lu Yunkai nodded, picked up Astoria, and walked back to the fireplace.
