Chapter 90 Preventing Recklessness

"Yunkai? You're looking for me?"

"Yeah. What are you busy with?"

"Transfiguration paper." Harry had a slightly embarrassed smile on his face, "There's a Quidditch match tomorrow. If I get injured again and can't finish it before Monday, Professor McGonagall will scold me again."

"How can you be a player like you? You're afraid of getting injured before going on the field!" Lu Yunkai was amused by Harry.

It had been a week since Lu Yunkai heard from Ginny that she had thrown away her notebook. He had also seen Harry walking around with the notebook for several days. Finally, he couldn't help but run to the door of the Gryffindor common room after dinner today and called Harry out.

But he hadn't figured out how to tell Harry about the notebook.

"What's the matter?" Harry smiled, wanting to finish the matter quickly and go back to write the paper.

"Just... have you found out anything about the Slytherin heir in the past few days?"

"Ah?" Harry was stunned by Lu Yunkai's topic, "Why did you suddenly think of asking me about this?"

"I'm just a little worried..."

"You don't think I'm the heir, do you?" Harry interrupted Lu Yunkai with a very ugly expression on his face, "Why would I attack Chris!"

"I didn't say it was you! Why are you so excited!"

"Then why did you ask me?"

"Because I think you might be very concerned about that matter! After all, it is related to Voldemort..."

"Voldemort??"

Harry was stunned.

Lu Yunkai was also stunned.

No, Mr. Savior, you still don't know that this matter is related to Voldemort? ?

Has Hermione not checked for the past few months? Or did she not tell you what she found out?

"Didn't you, Hermione, and Ron drink Polyjuice Potion and go ask Malfoy? Didn't you find out anything?"

"We just went to ask Malfoy if he knew what monster attacked, but he didn't know anything. Hermione has been investigating how the basilisk could move around the castle... How is this related to Voldemort?"

"Because Voldemort is the heir of Slytherin! He can speak Parseltongue..."

"Parseltongue? What is that?"

"It's talking to snakes. This skill is rare..."

"Rare? I think I can do it too!" Harry shook his head in confusion.

Silence.

Lu Yunkai looked at Harry with a ridiculous look on his face, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"I've been able to talk to snakes for a long time. I knew it before I entered Hogwarts." Harry thought Lu Yunkai didn't believe it, so he could only explain: "Can't you just say that he is the heir of Slytherin?"

"But Hagrid told me before that he was framed by Voldemort to become the heir of Slytherin, and then had to drop out of Hogwarts." Lu Yunkai could only explain it in a way that Harry could probably accept.

However.

"Hagrid?? Why don't I know?" Harry was confused again.

What do you know? !

Lu Yunkai complained crazily in his heart.

But he quickly sorted out his mood. Now is not the time to talk about this.

"You should pay more attention. If you find anything strange, look for it first... Well, Dumbledore is gone, you can also ask Professor McGonagall or Hermione. If you really can't, you can ask me." Lu Yunkai tried hard not to show an anxious expression on his face, "I always feel that if Voldemort appears in Hogwarts, he will probably come to you."

"But isn't Voldemort dead?"

"Didn't he also appear last year?"

Lu Yunkai's words made Harry, who still had different opinions on Lu Yunkai's statement, choose to shut up.

"Harry, do you really speak Parseltongue?"

Compared to Harry's ignorance of the notebook, this matter shocked Lu Yunkai even more.

Since Christmas, Lu Yunkai has also looked up and wanted to learn Parseltongue in order to lure out the basilisk. But all the books told Lu Yunkai that this thing is a natural language that can only imitate the sound, but there is no complete set of language teaching materials.

Even almost all books that mention Parseltongue say that this talent is passed down in the blood of Slytherin, and those who can speak this language must have a blood relationship with Slytherin.

Harry can't be a descendant of Slytherin! After Lu Yunkai entered Slytherin last year, he was worried that his origin would be excluded, so he looked up a lot of information about wizard families. Out of curiosity, he also looked up the family information of Harry, his best friend at the time.

It's true that his mother was born a Muggle, but his father's Potter family heritage is extremely clear, and has nothing to do with Slytherin!

Could it be that his memory has been modified by Voldemort?

"Really! But I can't say it normally, I have to see the snake. That day in the duel club, I stopped the snake that wanted to attack Finchley, and then they suspected that I was directing the snake to attack him..."

Harry's expression was very depressed when he talked about this.

"Dueling Club?"

Lu Yunkai really didn't know about this. Because he and Lockhart were the typical type who disliked each other, it was impossible for him to attend the duel club hosted by him outside of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

"Well, that day he asked me to help him reply to his fans, and then he took me to the duel club. Malfoy released a few snakes on the duel stage, but I drove them away."

"..."

Lu Yunkai didn't know what to say for a moment.

Things are getting more and more complicated!

"Don't worry, if there is any news about Voldemort, I will tell you as soon as possible." Harry seemed to be in a hurry to go back to write his paper, and said a little hurriedly: "And when Hermione finds out how the basilisk attacks, I will tell you too."

"Okay."

Lu Yunkai nodded and watched Harry return to the Gryffindor lounge. He stood silently for a while before turning back to the Slytherin lounge.

At a glance, he saw Malfoy and Pansy sitting there in the lounge, talking about something.

If it were normal, Lu Yunkai would never approach without a look, but today...

"Draco, I have a question for you." Lu Yunkai approached without any politeness.

"What?" Malfoy didn't react to Lu Yunkai's sudden appearance, but Pansy next to him was obviously a little unhappy.

"Potter can speak Parseltongue?" Lu Yunkai didn't have time to deal with Pansy, so he just asked on his own.

"Parseltongue? What is that?"

"It's talking to snakes."

"Oh... that's true. How did you know?"

"I just heard about it." Hearing Malfoy say that, Lu Yunkai's face became more and more strange.

Even if the notebook can affect Harry with some kind of magic or psychological suggestion, it can't affect Malfoy! But...

Isn't Parseltongue a blood talent? ?

"Humph, he's bragging again, right?" Malfoy looked unhappy.

"I won't bother you anymore." Lu Yunkai looked at Pansy who was almost looking at him sideways, smiled embarrassedly, left the two of them, and returned to his fixed seat in the lounge.

He was still thinking about the news he just got.

Harry's talk about Parseltongue really shocked him too much.

After all, compared to dealing with the notebook, killing the basilisk and helping Chris recover the soul is his top priority. Lu Yunkai couldn't suppress his impulse and wanted to ask Harry to help him lure the basilisk out.

However, reason told him that this was definitely not a good solution.

With Harry's Gryffindor character who hates evil, if I ask him to deal with the basilisk, that kid will definitely help me regardless of any risks, and even rush to the front.

If Harry is in danger at that time, Lu Yunkai will feel guilty!

But... this is the best opportunity to avenge Chris!

Harry shouldn't be in any danger, right?

Such an idea with a little adventure and the hope of luck took root in Lu Yunkai's heart.

Calm down! !

Otherwise, go and discuss with Hermione? She should be a smart and calm person, right?

...

"What? Do you know where the basilisk is hiding?"

The next day, the library.

Among the second-year students at Hogwarts, there are two people that Lu Yunkai can find if he wants to find them. One is Blaise in the dormitory, and the other is Hermione in the library.

When Lu Yunkai sat opposite Hermione with a book that was not meant to be read, and told her a little about what he knew, the girl jumped up.

"Keep your voice down." Lu Yunkai lowered his voice and looked around. Fortunately, there were not many people in the library before dinner.

"How did you know?"

"Why do you think Chris was attacked? It has been monitoring this matter."

"Ah? Then do you know who the heir of Slytherin is?"

"I know! Voldemort!"

"Don't be kidding."

"He controlled a person among the students, and then let that person use Parseltongue to open the Chamber of Secrets and release the basilisk to attack people." Lu Yunkai nodded, "As for who is controlled, don't ask, I won't tell you."

"... Ginny??"

"..."

"No way!!" Hermione was shocked, "Is it really her??"

"... What do you know?"

"Before, the matter between you and her was so big, I went to ask about it out of curiosity. I heard that she is particularly withdrawn among the first-year students. Except for Luna, she has a good relationship with her. I don't associate with anyone. This is so unlike the Weasley family..."

"Indeed." Lu Yunkai nodded. The Weasley family... the twin brothers, Ron, are all very popular people: "Don't make things difficult for her. After all, even adult wizards have many people controlled by Voldemort, not to mention her."

"I understand!" Hermione rolled her eyes at Lu Yunkai, "What do you want me to do by telling me about the basilisk?"

"Do you think it's dangerous for me to ask Harry to help me open the Chamber of Secrets and kill the basilisk?"

"Of course!" Hermione nodded quickly, "It's better to ask the teachers for help..."

"Who to ask? Dumbledore is not here. Who else can definitely be Voldemort's opponent? Lockhart?"

"That man is a joke!" Speaking of Lockhart, Hermione and Lu Yunkai have a common language.

She even disliked Lockhart more than Lu Yunkai: before she met that greasy uncle, he was the perfect definition of a wizard in Hermione's mind, but the more she met him, the more she realized that he was just a fool, and then she stopped being a fan and turned against him...

Ahem.

"So!" Lu Yunkai nodded, "and only Harry could open the Chamber of Secrets. I have also made some preparations..."

"Oh! By the way! Hagrid said you sent him some chickens! Did you know about the basilisk a long time ago?"

"Yeah." Lu Yunkai nodded, "The book says that the crowing of a rooster can kill the basilisk, but I always feel that such a terrible monster is unlikely to die after hearing a few crowing of a rooster? It always feels unreasonable."

"So..."

"So I want to lure the basilisk out and take it to the Forbidden Forest. There should be a lot of things there that can kill it."

"Good idea!" Hermione nodded repeatedly, "But... If I want Harry to help open the Chamber of Secrets, I always feel that he might want to kill the basilisk himself..."

"That's why I'm worried about this, so I came to discuss it with you!" Lu Yunkai nodded, "And Dumbledore just happened to be away from school."

Lu Yunkai emphasized the three words just happened.

"Let's do this! I'll talk to Harry about this matter later and try not to let him take risks." Hermione naturally understood what Lu Yunkai meant, and did not respond, "We'll discuss it later."

"Okay." Lu Yunkai nodded.

"What should we do about Ginny?"

"We'll think of a solution after the basilisk issue is resolved." Lu Yunkai thought it would be better not to tell Hermione that the notebook was in Harry's hands, otherwise the girl might lose her composure: "Without the basilisk, Ginny is no longer in danger."

"Yeah." Hermione reached a consensus with Lu Yunkai, and then suddenly laughed: "Will Daphne not be angry with me if I contact you like this?"

"...Harry, I'll leave it to you. Contact me if you have anything."

Lu Yunkai stood up and walked out of the library.

Hermione, you... disappoint me too much. How can even you be so gossipy!

...Thank you for the reward from Wude Zhongshi, Leiyu's Watch, and WY444, three book friends.
