Hogwarts Kryptonian

Chapter 14 Professor Quirrell

After returning to the Slytherin lounge with Malfoy and his two followers, Lu Yunkai hid in a corner of the lounge on the pretext of preparing for the Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the afternoon and started reading with a book.

But before he read two pages of the book, he was interrupted by Blaise who rushed into the lounge excitedly.

"Thank you! Lu Yunkai! Thank you very much!" Blaise grabbed Lu Yunkai's hand and kept shouting.

"...Don't be so excited, okay! Is your father okay?" Lu Yunkai looked embarrassed, but still asked seriously.

"Yes! Phoenix's tears just dropped on the wound, and it healed immediately! My mother said she hoped to express her gratitude to you in person!"

"...You don't have to be so polite. In fact, I didn't do anything!" Lu Yunkai smiled sheepishly.

"What happened, Blaise?" Malfoy's follower Crabbe came over and asked.

"Oh! Lu Yunkai helped me find the Phoenix Tears and saved my father's life!"

"Phoenix tears? Those are rare items!" Malfoy's other follower, Goyle, also came over. "Before, my brother-in-law was hit by a very powerful curse. My father spent a lot of money to buy some from the black market. Unfortunately, it was too late. Although my brother-in-law's life was saved, his brain could not be cured. ”

"My mother also searched all over Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley but couldn't find it. Then Lu Yunkai said that he had a friend there who might have it... and then he found it!" Blaise nodded seriously.

"Wow! It's really yours!" Crabbe gave Lu Yunkai a thumbs up.

"It's just that my friend happens to like collecting these weird things... By the way, what did he take from you?" Lu Yun changed the topic.

"That's not important. What's important is that my father's life was saved." Blaise shook his head.

"It must be a lot of money, right? My father originally spent nearly one hundred thousand gold galleons to buy the Phoenix Tears." Crabbe interjected.

"One hundred thousand??" Lu Yunkai was shocked.

What a loss! ! Lu Yunkai cried silently in his heart.

"And I owe that person a favor!" Crabbe nodded, "After all, there are not many phoenixes left now, let alone tears. Some phoenixes will never shed a tear in their lives!"

"Then I owe Lu Yunkai a huge debt!" Blaise sighed.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it. We are roommates after all." Lu Yun smiled and said, "We help each other!"

"Um!"

Blaise nodded seriously.

Lu Yunkai glanced around with a smile.

It was still lunch time, so there were not many people in the lounge, but everyone in the lounge knew what was happening here.

That's why he chose to stay in the lounge instead of going back to the dormitory.

He and Blaise were the only two people in the dormitory, and here, there would be many people who knew what happened. Lu Yunkai believed that by night, all the Slytherin students would know that he had found a way to help his classmates get a drop of Phoenix tears.

Although Lu Yunkai learned from Gao Er that his tears were sold at a loss, considering that they were just for advertising, Lu Yunkai could accept it...

Sure enough, just as Blaise left gratefully, a senior came over and wanted to ask Lu Yunkai to help buy some strange things.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry to always trouble my friends. I'll give it a chance in the future!"

Lu Yunkai refused with a smile.

Even if it were to be sold, it would definitely not be a low-end thing like a love potion!

Then he just stood there in the corner, facing the gazes and low voices of everyone in the lounge, holding the Defense Against Dark Arts textbook and continuing to read, as if nothing had happened just now.

His pet cat, on the other hand, kept meowing beside him.

"Meow! How can you do this kind of business! Why don't you accept the business? Are you sick??"

But no one except Lu Yunkai could understand what the cat was meowing.

Lu Yunkai was so serious about preparing for the Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the afternoon, and it wasn't all just pretending.

This is indeed the course that Lu Yunkai is most looking forward to. He sincerely wants to learn this black magic defense course well, and by the way, learn about black magic related knowledge.

It's not that he hates evil so much.

But in Bojin Bock's magic shop, Lu Yunkai understood the huge business opportunities contained in black magic from the "waste" in that large warehouse.

only.

"Hello everyone, I'm... I'm your Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Quirrell."

The first words of the professor with a lot of cloth wrapped around his head made Lu Yunkai stop thinking about this course.

Because of the sensitivity of black magic, the textbook was written with some vague words and unknown words. When it was taught by such a stuttering professor, it was really hypnotic.

The class ended with Blaise sitting next to him waking him up.

Lu Yunkai, who was just yawning, was left alone by Professor Quirrell before he could leave.

"Sorry, Professor, I wasn't feeling well today, so in class..."

"It's okay. I just want to talk to you." Quirrell smiled and shook his head at Lu Yunkai with a kind smile on his face, "Come! Sit down!"

"good."

Lu Yunkai, who had just woken up, sat back on the stool in the classroom in a daze and glanced at the empty classroom, feeling a little curious.

He must have seen this professor, Lu Yunkai, during the sorting ceremony, but he had no memory of him. Even after so many days at Hogwarts, he had no memory of seeing this professor again.

"I heard that one of your friends helped your classmate get a drop of Phoenix tears?"

Quirrell asked with a smile on his face.

"Oh, I just tried it, but I didn't expect it to work." Lu Yunkai's eyelids twitched, but he still said it with a bit of embarrassment.

"Well, that friend of yours is quite capable!"

"...Professor, what's wrong with you?" Lu Yunkai seemed to have understood.

"Um?"

There must be a smile on Quirrell's face.

This boy with yellow skin and black hair is so smart that he doesn’t look like an eleven-year-old boy!

"If you have something to say, just tell me. But my friend is withdrawn and may not be able to help."

"Well... I'm just curious about what interesting and rare things he has in his collection. Are there any... for example, magic stones or something like that?"

"Magic stone? What is that?" Lu Yunkai was stunned.

[Magic Stone, 1.1 billion galleons. 】

A row of words appeared in front of his eyes.

There is only one row of words. As for the Magic Stone itself, Chatterbox System doesn't even have a single word of introduction.

"Well, it's a relatively rare thing. A friend of mine is very interested in this thing. If your friend has one... money is not an issue."

"I've never heard of this thing. I'll ask him later when I have time."

"As soon as possible?"

"Oh?" Lu Yun thought happily, "Okay. I'll do it as soon as possible."

Professor Quirrell nodded.

Lu Yunkai left the classroom without saying a word and returned to the dormitory with his head buried.

The afternoon classes ended very early. The students had their own activities after the classes. Blaise was not in the dormitory.

"Meow? You came back so early today?"

Chrissy, who was sleeping in a ball on the bed, was woken up by Lu Yunkai.

During the time since arriving at Hogwarts, Chrissy has become more and more like a real cat. She sleeps in the dormitory during the day and doesn't know what to do when she goes out at night.

"What have you been doing every day lately?" Lu Yunkai sat on the bed, his expression looking gloomy.

"Meow? Just walking around, what's wrong?" Chris suddenly became energetic.

This was the first time it saw such a serious expression on Lu Yunkai's face, and it was startled.

"If you have nothing special to do tonight, can you help me keep an eye on someone?"

"who?"

"Professor Quirrell." Lu Yunkai looked serious.

"Ah? Why?"

"Have you ever heard of the Philosopher's Stone?"

"Philosopher's stone?" Chris was stunned when Lu Yunkai asked, "What is it?"

"I don't know either. The system only told me that it is a product of alchemy. Professor Quirrell wants to buy the magic stone from me."

"Meow? Do you have it? Sell it to him!"

"How do you want me to sell something worth 1.1 billion galleons?" Lu Yunkai glared at Chris.

"One billion... billion??"

"Yes!" Lu Yunkai let out a long sigh, "If it were you, would you find an eleven-year-old child to buy such an expensive thing?"

"Meow, maybe it's just a matter of luck? Phoenix tears are also very rare!"

"I hope." Lu Yunkai nodded, "That's why I asked you to keep an eye on it for me. But my intuition tells me that it's definitely not that simple."

"Meow? Why?"

"Maybe it's because I look like a child!" Lu Yun smiled, but then his smile quickly faded: "When he was in front of me, he forgot that he stuttered when he spoke."

"Meow??"
