Chapter 117 The Leaky Wall

Lu Yunkai didn't confirm with Harry and the other two after he ran away from school in Hogsmeade.

He himself has many secrets, so he won't tell others how to keep secrets.

And although the new courses in the third grade are not very good, this year's Hogwarts is the calmest year since Lu Yunkai came to school. He doesn't want to make things turbulent again because of his meddling.

In particular, as Chris continued to monitor, it found that except Ron and Lu Yunkai, no one seemed to think that Ginny was any different from before, even her best friend Luna, which somewhat dispelled Lu Yunkai's suspicion.

In this case, isn't it better for it to be an ordinary third-year student?

Therefore, Lu Yunkai selectively forgot about seeing Harry from a distance outside the Shrieking Shack.

However, as the "star student" of the entire Hogwarts, Harry doesn't seem to be something Lu Yunkai can forget just because he wants to.

In the Quidditch match the day after returning from Hogsmeade, Harry once again became the focus of attention.

Although he joined the Slytherin Quidditch team, Lu Yunkai also showed his rigor and never missed any team training or Slytherin games, but he still would not watch other colleges' Quidditch games except Slytherin games.

Therefore, Lu Yunkai also learned from Crabbe, who excitedly shouted "You deserve it" when he returned to the lounge after watching the game that Harry was attacked by the Dementors patrolling around the school and fell off his broom during the game.

Hearing that poor Harry had an accident again, Lu Yunkai immediately ran to the infirmary.

He also saw Harry lying on the bed like "the moon surrounded by stars" again.

Seeing Lu Yunkai's arrival, Harry, who was originally depressed because the Nimbus 2000 given by McGonagall was destroyed, complained a lot.

"I really don't know why I'm so afraid of Dementors, and ended up causing Gryffindor to lose the game."

Harry was blaming himself.

This attitude made Lu Yunkai unable to say much: this was better than Malfoy's way of blaming the loss of the game on the hot or cold weather!

It was precisely because of Harry's sometimes excessive simplicity and kindness that Lu Yunkai could never give up this friend who was always in trouble!

After comforting Harry, saying that everyone was afraid of monsters like Dementors, Lu Yunkai planned to go back to the dormitory. After all, Harry would stay in the infirmary for a few days every now and then in the past few years. Not only Lu Yunkai, but even Harry himself had gotten used to it. As long as people were alive, it was okay...

However.

"Lu Yunkai! Wait a minute!"

Hermione chased Lu Yunkai who wanted to leave and ran out of the infirmary together.

"...What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

After hearing what Daphne said to Millicent outside the Shrieking Shack the day before, Lu Yunkai's attitude changed a little when he looked at Hermione again.

The reason why Lu Yunkai and Hermione are quite compatible is that they are both smart people, and more importantly, it is because she has a good relationship with Harry.

Lu Yunkai had always thought that after a year or two, she would most likely be his friend's girlfriend.

But she seemed to be closer to Ron... This actually made Lu Yunkai feel that it was not worth it for his friend, so he naturally distanced himself from Hermione a little bit.

"I have something to tell you." Hermione looked around, "About Harry. Is it convenient for you?"

"Yeah." Lu Yunkai nodded.

It's related to Harry, and Lu Yunkai felt that he still had to ask about it.

"Harry already knows about that Black thing."

"What is it...his parents' death is related to Black? Did you really tell him about this?" Lu Yunkai was stunned.

"I didn't say that!!" Hermione was a little annoyed. "Yesterday in Hogsmeade, he overheard Professor McGonagall's conversation with Minister Fudge and others, and mentioned the death of his parents..."

"Professor McGonagall? She is not a talkative person!" Lu Yunkai was even more surprised, "How did Harry overhear it?"

"..."

"Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask." Lu Yunkai waved his hand.

Secret, yeah. Just like the way Harry sneaked out of Hogwarts, it was all secret.

"Yesterday he said that he really hopes Black will find him now, and he wants Black to pay the price..." Hermione's face was full of worry.

"This is not surprising. Didn't we guess this result before? This is Harry!" Lu Yunkai smiled helplessly, "Then... what should we do?"

"I don't know." Hermione shook her head, "I think he didn't play well in the game today, and it may have been affected by this incident to some extent."

"Dementors are Dementors, don't blame him for this kind of thing!"

"I didn't! Dementors feed on human happiness. They are interested in Harry, either because they think it's fun or because they think it's delicious... Harry didn't have any happiness today. We all felt that he was very gloomy before the game." Hermione shook her head, "The Dementors attacking him may really be just an accident. And with Dumbledore here, Dementors can't do anything to Harry."

"Then we can only pray that with Dumbledore here, Black can't do anything to Harry!" Lu Yunkai smiled.

Is Dumbledore really reliable?

Okay!

……

The reason why Hermione told Lu Yunkai that Harry had overheard the feud between him and Sirius was not because she wanted him to help her think of a solution.

In fact, based on their understanding of Harry, there was no solution to this matter. Harry, who had deep feelings for his parents and a clear distinction between gratitude and resentment, would hardly give up revenge.

If Harry could really give up, he would not be a friend worthy of Lu Yunkai's care: he admired Harry the most and was willing to take risks for him twice because Harry could risk his life to protect the Philosopher's Stone and Ginny, who had nothing to do with him.

Lu Yunkai firmly believed that if he encountered danger one day in the future and needed Harry's help, this friend would definitely lend a hand without hesitation.

Lu Yunkai understood this, and Hermione could not fail to understand it.

So she just came to inform him so that Lu Yunkai would not have to play dumb in front of Harry.

As for what would happen to this matter in the future, we could only take it one step at a time.

Anyway, now from the Ministry of Magic to Dumbledore, they are still very concerned about protecting Harry.

Although the Ministry of Magic arranged Dementors to protect Hogwarts, it now seems like a bad move.

Harry was attacked by Dementors, which made Dumbledore furious. He personally took action that day and drove away all the Dementors wandering around Hogwarts.

Although the Ministry of Magic did not withdraw the order to let Dementors guard Hogwarts, in fact, these monsters had no way to get close to the school.

Lu Yunkai supported this. In his eyes, those things were trash.

Not only did they let Sirius escape from Azkaban, but they also let him sneak into Hogwarts.

These two are the safest and most stable fortresses in the world (at least Hagrid thinks so).

However, the ghost who could sneak into the castle did not take advantage of Harry sneaking into Hogsmeade to deal with him in a relatively easy place, but attacked the Slytherin common room, at least proving that even if he wanted to kill Harry, he would definitely be ranked behind another junior Slytherin student.

In addition, with the news from Chris, who had relaxed her surveillance of Ginny because she had not found anything, Lu Yunkai sincerely felt that he should be safe now.

So, he could focus more on studying magic.

For example, the communication mirror that was getting better and better, since it was not far from the "finished product" he was familiar with, he might as well work harder and make it before Halloween.

To get rid of the poisonous rose-like Madam Zabini, this thing might be the best medium.

…

A few days later.

"What's wrong again? Why is it so noisy?"

Lu Yunkai, who was trying the video phone function of the communication mirror for the first time in the dormitory, curiously asked Blaise, who was helping him test in the mirror and was now in the Owl Tower.

"How should I know! There was a sudden noise downstairs just now." Blaise was never particularly concerned about such things. "Why, do you want me to go out on a broom and try again?"

"Why don't you go and see what happened first?"

As for the communication distance, Lu Yunkai had already conducted a "stress test" during the summer vacation. It is said that Goyle could use the mirror to send a message to Malfoy when he was in Romania! Today, he mainly wanted to test whether the spell he cast on the mirror in imitation of the twin mirror was fixed on the mirror by the magic circle he found in the book.

Now it seems that the image and call quality are very stable.

"Okay."

Blaise cast a levitation spell on the mirror, letting it float in the air behind him, like a live camera following him, and walked down from the Owl Tower with the mirror.

Soon Lu Yunkai saw from the mirror that the incident happened outside the Gryffindor Common Room.

In the mirror, the painting hanging at the entrance of the Gryffindor common room seemed to have been destroyed. A group of Gryffindor students crowded in front of the painting, looking for the fat lady who might have "hid" in another painting and was responsible for verifying the password and opening the door.

"Good guy! I have been wanting to do this for two years, and someone actually did it!"

Blaise laughed as she watched the group of Gryffindor students, who were indignant and worried.

"The people in the painting didn't disappear when the painting was destroyed?"

Lu Yunkai was concerned about other things.

He had heard about the "principle" of these paintings before, but he couldn't understand why they still thought that the fat lady could be found in other paintings.

Can they still visit each other?

Are these paintings really not considered dark magic items? ?

"No. The people in these paintings at Hogwarts can move around... This is a great magic."

"I know. Otherwise, they would have been dealt with by the Ministry of Magic long ago." Lu Yunkai agreed with Blaise's statement.

"Ministry of Magic? How many years have they been around? How old are these paintings at Hogwarts!" Blaise laughed, "They want to express their views, are they qualified?"

"That's right." Lu Yun laughed.
