Hogwarts Kryptonian

Following Baron out of the study, Lu Yunkai arrived at the restaurant on the second floor.

The restaurant room is small, and the decoration is relatively simple and elegant. The tables and chairs do not have complicated carvings, and the tableware is clean and tidy, but the owner's care can be seen everywhere. It is similar to Mal, who is also known as a "big pure-blood family". The Fuji family is completely different, but they have many similarities with the Blaise family.

Lu Yunkai also prefers to eat in such a place, at least it seems more humane.

The two of them sat at the dining table, Baron remained silent, while Lu Yunkai lowered his head and looked at the ring hanging on his chest. There was an inexplicable dullness between the two of them, which made Hailin, who came in with Astoria, a little stunned.

Just when she didn't know what to say, Astoria who was following her had already spoken one step ahead.

"Brother-in-law! You're here again!"

"Don't say the word "you" so loudly!"

Lu Yunkai smiled and waved to Astoria.

"Isn't this happy!" Astoria looked like she didn't mind, smiling and sitting on the seat next to Lu Yunkai.

"Get out of the way, that's your sister's place." Baron glanced at his second daughter and said in a serious tone.

"..." Astoria was stunned.

No, Dad, didn’t you ask me to make trouble for them today yesterday? Why did you suddenly change your mind? ?

Although this person named Lu Yunkai is not annoying, he is not that lovable either!

"Get up!" Hailin quickly pulled Astoria up from her seat, moved to the side, and sat down next to her.

"Where's Daphne?" Balon asked, looking at Helene.

"She's still changing her clothes. She wants to look good." Astoria said while dismantling her sister's appearance.

"Yeah." Baron nodded noncommittally.

The room became quiet again.

Astoria looked at her father and then at Lu Yunkai, a little unsure whether she should go ahead with the plan.

After a stalemate like this for a while, Daphne ran into the restaurant.

"Sorry to keep everyone waiting."

"Sister! You can't do it!! The festival is only at night!!"

Astoria looked at Daphne, who was wearing a gorgeous lavender silk dress, with a ridiculous look on her face.

"It's okay." Balon looked at his daughter and nodded with a smile, "Okay, let's eat something first! There are some things I brought back from across the ocean tonight, so don't eat too much!"

"Oh? What is it? Why don't I know??" Astoria's eyes lit up.

"You'll find out in the evening!" Hailin pressed her daughter's leg again, then waved her hand, and the dining table was immediately filled with food.

Although the decoration style of this restaurant is very close to that of the Brace family, this lunch, which is said to be just a "stomach first" lunch, still reflects the confidence of the so-called pure-blood family.

A table full of all kinds of food is extremely rich.

Daphne, who was dressed up, didn't care much about eating, and tried hard to tell interesting things about school, trying to make her parents happy.

It's just that there are not many interesting things in Hogwarts this year, but there are things that are worrying. And although the unlucky one is a Gryffindor, after all, the news about the "heir" has been spread through letters from Slytherin students. All over the parents...

This is why almost all the students in Slytherin House were asked by their parents to go home this Halloween. Their parents are obviously very concerned about the safety of their children.

The topic naturally turned to this matter under the leadership of Hai Lin, who realized that her husband's view of Lu Yunkai had changed somewhat.

But the problem is that it is not convenient for either Daphne or Lu Yunkai to say more about this matter. Daphne, in particular, was afraid that she might accidentally let out some news that this matter was related to Lu Yunkai.

Lu Yunkai acted very calmly. No matter what Baron and Hailin asked, he could always answer fluently: I don't know, I don't understand. We were not there, but it shouldn't be a big problem.

In the eyes of her parents, Daphne was worried and at a loss about spilling the beans because she was frightened by Creevey's attack. Compared with Lu Yunkai's calmness, she was somewhat surprised to help him in the eyes of her parents. Got a lot of extra points.

Lunch ended quickly and the restaurant was cleaned up. Baron, who had only talked about half of the conversation just now, suggested that Lu Yunkai go to the study again. Since Lu Yunkai was a guest, he could only do as he pleased. He and Daphne came here again with her father. Study room on the first floor.

But what Daphne didn't expect was that although the atmosphere in the study was quite relaxed, neither Lu Yunkai nor Baron spoke.

Baron was looking at a book he had taken off the bookshelf when he entered the study, while Lu Yunkai was drinking the black tea at hand and staring at the late autumn garden scenery outside the study window.

She wanted the two of them to chat for a few words, but she was afraid that if the two of them didn't agree on each other, it would be better as it is now...

In this way, after a full hour, Baron finally raised his head and looked at Lu Yunkai.

"Do you two want to hang out?"

"Ah?" Daphne said back to her father: "Then why did you let us in?"

"I thought it was in this book, but I seem to have remembered it wrong, so I have to look for it again." Baron smiled and nodded, "We'll talk after I find it."

"Ah? What are you looking for?" Daphne had just stood up, and before she could pull Lu Yunkai up, she was stunned when she heard Baron's words.

"Have you seen the ring hanging on Lu Yunkai's chest?"

"Well, he hangs up occasionally when he's at school. What's wrong?"

"Aren't you curious where his ring came from?"

"He said he had it all along and was sent to the orphanage with him. What's wrong?"

"That ring is not an ordinary thing." Balon glanced at Lu Yunkai again, "I just tested it out of curiosity. It has a history of at least four to five thousand years."

"Four to five thousand years??" Daphne looked at Lu Yunkai in confusion.

"I don't know either, don't ask me." Lu Yunkai shook his head.

"Aren't you curious about the origin of your ring?" Baron stood up, put the book in his hand back on the shelf, and asked Lu Yunkai.

"I just thought it was a certificate that my biological parents left for me to recognize my parents in the future. I didn't think much about it. It was also this summer that I accidentally used a cleaning spell on the ring, and then I discovered that this chain can actually be more defensive. It’s a simple magic, so I started wearing it as a spell protection necklace.”

"No wonder you only started hanging it out this year!" Daphne remembered. She did not see Lu Yunkai wearing this ring last year.

"The pattern above doesn't remind you of anything?" Baron said as he took another old-looking and thick book from the bookshelf, returned to the chair, and continued to read.

"Isn't it the five-pointed star on the flag of my homeland in the East?" Lu Yunkai picked up the ring and looked at it.

"This is not a pentagram, and the angles of the five corners are also different. I should have seen this pattern somewhere, but I can't remember which book it was in..."

"Dad, when you said that, I suddenly remembered! I've seen it before!" Daphne, who was next to her, stared at Lu Yunkai's chest for a while, and then suddenly let out an exclamation, interrupting Baron's words.

"Oh? Where?" Baron was stunned.

"Wait a minute!" Daphne ran out of the study.

"Slow down! Be careful of tripping over your skirt!" Lu Yunkai reminded her from behind.

Without waiting long, Daphne returned to the study.

The gorgeous and exaggerated long dress disappeared, and she changed back into the wizard robe.

In his hand, he held a stone.

"Oh!! Yes!! That's it! I remembered it! It's not in the book!" Baron excitedly threw the book in his hand to the floor next to him, took the stone from Daphne's hand, and looked at it from side to side. After a moment, he handed it to Lu Yunkai.

"...What is this?" Lu Yunkai took the stone in surprise.

The pattern carved on the stone is exactly the same as the one on his ring! !

"I excavated this from a magic ruins in the Middle East before and brought it back as a gift to Daphne." Baron nodded, "Yes, exactly the same."

"Indeed." Lu Yunkai nodded.

Mentally giving Daphne's father a thumbs up.

Good guy, you are indeed a wealthy family! I can actually find something like this from home! It would be fine if he didn't know the origin of this symbol, but he clearly knew that this thing belonged to King Solomon.

Almost instinctively, Lu Yunkai silently activated the system.

[Estimation of Sanxike. For sale? 】

The row of shadows quickly calmed down Lu Yunkai's mood.

Well, this is just an ordinary stone with this symbol engraved on it, but it’s amazing that you can just take out something like this at home!

"Dad, didn't you say that some relic is related to King Solomon's secret treasure??" Daphne also looked surprised, "And you don't even know what this symbol means."

"Yes, but that ruin is only more than two thousand years old." Baron nodded seriously, "And I haven't seen similar graphics anywhere else. It seems that if necessary, I should go to the east to take a look. ”

"Two thousand years can't be said to be the only one, can it?" Lu Yun smiled and wanted to change the topic.

He originally came to the Greengrass house with this ring, just to bet that Daphne's father would know something about the ring's extraordinary origins, so that he could add a layer of gold to his identity. And the fact was as he wished, Balon really saw the extraordinary nature of this ring at a glance.

But he forgot that Daphne's father was a man who was particularly interested in archeology and exploration, and could even leave his wife and children running around in England, the Middle East, and North America just for this kind of thing.

This kind of person will not sit at home and guess the story, but will go and verify it for himself!

If he really wants to go to the East and find his former orphanage to investigate, won't Lu Yunkai's fake ring be revealed in a matter of seconds? Then I went back to my country to search, and it probably wouldn’t take much time to find the Muggle jewelry store where Lu Yun opened a custom-made ring...

How careless! !

If I had known better, I wouldn't have been so anxious to wear the ring to show off!

For the current plan, we can only let Baron be curious about this matter, but realize the confidentiality of this matter, and absolutely cannot go out to publicize it, and then let his curiosity rot in his stomach. There is no way to do it. Make them swear not to tell anyone, and then perform it for them just like how you fooled Mrs. Zabini...

But a secret is no longer a secret if more than three people know it!

How to do it? Lu Yunkai fell into a battle between heaven and man.

"Yun Kai, is there something you didn't tell me?"

Just when Lu Yunkai was in trouble, Daphne beside him had already sensed something was wrong with Lu Yunkai.

"No!"

"Why not! Once you have something on your mind, something is wrong with you. Your breathing becomes heavy and your eyes start to blur!" Daphne pointed at Lu Yunkai, "It's a secret, can't you tell me?"

"Daphne, take this stone back and put it away." Balon spoke first.

"...Oh." Daphne looked at her father, took the stone from Lu Yunkai's hand, and walked out of the room.

Daphne walked out of the house, and Balon cast an anti-eavesdropping spell on the door.

"Okay, if you have something to say, you can't say it to Daphne, but you can say it to me?" Baron looked at Lu Yunkai with a smile.

Lu Yunkai fell silent. He could deny it and then let Baron investigate. He had made some precautions about this ring. It was not that easy to check, but it was very risky.

Do you believe that the ending you made cannot be revealed, or do you believe in the binding force of the magical oath?

Lu Yunkai felt that the latter seemed to be more reliable. After all, Mrs. Zabini has proven herself well so far.

There is no need to take risks. Lu Yunkai made a decision.

"I can tell you. But you have to swear that you will never tell anyone about it."

"Oh? What if I refuse?" Baron smiled and shook his head.

"Then I have no choice but to leave. Thank you sir for your hospitality." Lu Yunkai stood up directly.

No negotiation.

"Okay, I can swear." Baron smiled firmly and his face became serious.

Lu Yunkai did not answer, but directly extended his hand to Baron.

Baron was stunned.

For a while.

"Don't break your oath? That's interesting..."

Baron smiled and stretched out his hand to hold Lu Yunkai.
