Luke played with the small statue in his hand, with an awkward look on his face.
Hagrid, who was frowning next to him, frowned tightly, watching Luke's movements and hesitated to speak.
"Don't worry, Hagrid. If I buy this thing, it means I know it well."
Luke took the white statue.
"This doesn't look like a tooth decay, Luke." Now that Luke spoke, Hagrid followed suit, "This should be a bone decay, but I really can't tell what kind of magical animal bones this is."
Relative to tooth decay. In the perception of wizards, bone sculptures are more magical sculptures. The bones themselves are used in many magical rituals.
Bone withers are also very important ritual materials in some primitive magic rituals. Such primitive magic is generally linked to the terms danger and black magic.
Especially the story about the statue told by the half-elf shop owner seems so mysterious and full of weirdness. Hagrid knew that in this situation, ignoring this thing was the best choice.
After all, wizards die in mysterious circumstances every year because of their negligence in such matters. Such things are not even news.
Isn't it a bit too irresponsible to let a child pick up this statue that just says "I am in danger" on the surface?
Hagrid asked himself this in his heart.
But Luke looked unconcerned.
"An Xin, I know...but this thing is very important to me."
Luke looked at the statue of Medusa in his hand. It was obviously a monster in mythology, but when it was placed here, its expression was unexpectedly peaceful. She even looks like a quiet beauty.
This makes the statue look less dangerous and gloomy, as if it is just a piece of handicraft.
But Luke could feel the magic flowing through it. Obscure, but obviously there.
In the previous conversation with Newt, they had combined the legends of Doris and Medusa. Although they did not know what the connection was, the connection itself was basically certain to exist.
"It has an aura similar to that of my partner. I can't let it go."
Luke put the statue on his belt and wiped it. But in fact, the statue is placed in the system space. He is not really stupid, he can naturally see the danger of this thing even though it is purely sick. It's not safe if you put it in your belt, so it's fine if you put it in the system space. If this thing could break through the system space and affect itself.
Then Luke can only say that he admits defeat.
Seeing that Luke had made up his mind, Hagrid said nothing. I can only secretly make up my mind to pay close attention to Luo Ka's status. We can't let Luke have an accident because of this statue.
After all, Luke would only encounter this statue when he brought Luke to Griffin.
After a simple conversation, the two people separated. Hagrid wants to go back to Hogwarts, which is his home. His companions and relatives all live in the Forbidden Forest.
Luke, on the other hand, was wandering around Diagon Alley with great interest. Although he has been to this street several times, he always comes and leaves in a hurry.
In addition to those shops that are famous in the entire wizarding world, such as Ollivander's Wand Shop, there are also many shops here that are not very famous, but also sell very interesting things.
The bottom line of wizards is generally not high. So even in Diagon Alley, you can see that there are many people who are openly selling stolen goods.
The dark wizard died and no one cared. And some of the things they carry can be sold for higher prices in Diagon Alley.
Luke walked around but didn't find anything particularly interesting. He doesn't care about the value of things. More concerned about how interesting things are. Unfortunately, many wizards don't even bother to write a fun story.
What product do you sell without a story?
Luke eventually went from being enthusiastic to being bored.
But not long after, he saw another figure.
Xenophilius Love
Goode.
This person is also well-known in the magic world. The Quibbler is a famous comic magazine in the British wizarding world. When everyone sees Xenophilius going crazy and making outrageous conspiracy theories, some people will find it interesting, while others will think it's all nonsense.
However, "The Quibbler" still has a certain amount of sales, enough to support a father and daughter.
Of course Xenophilius is not the point at all, but when he appears, it means Luna is nearby.
Luke was not surprised, after all, Luna would officially start school in a while.
And just when he started to look for traces of Luna next to Xenophilius, he suddenly felt someone tapping him on the shoulder.
Luke turned back abruptly, his expression unchanged, but his eyes were full of vigilance. The wand in his hand was already tightly grasped.
Then...he saw Luna.
"Huh, it's you."
Luke breathed a sigh of relief. The whole person also relaxed from the alert state.
Luna tilted her head and looked at Luke: "There's nothing molesting about you, but you look nervous."
Her words made the corners of Luke's mouth twitch. After all, based on his experience of being attacked by terrorists three times during this summer vacation, if he could really not react alertly when someone silently tapped him on the shoulder, then he would have been buried in France or America. .
But just as he was about to talk to Luna, Luke felt something strange.
He couldn't feel Luna's emotions.
Can't feel it at all.
Although he did not open his emotional vision, with the improvement of his ability, he has long been able to feel a person's basic emotions without relying on his emotional vision.
Opening up your emotional horizons will naturally make things clearer, but a world filled with all kinds of emotional colors is really not beautiful.
And when Luke opened his emotional horizons and looked at Luna with a bad premonition, he was still shocked after all.
Luna's side was blank.
Among the bustling crowds and various emotions around him, this blank space seemed particularly eye-catching.
"You're shocked. Is there something on me?"
Luna felt Luke's emotions and asked.
Luke opened his mouth. Suddenly he remembered that when he first met Luna, he discovered that this little girl could read his own thoughts to a certain extent.
But looking at it now, she probably doesn't read minds directly using skills similar to Legilimency like Taylor. Rather, it is possible to feel the emotions of others just like yourself. Not intuition, but a special ability.
Thinking back to the movies I watched back then. Wearing a pair of glasses, you can see strange things on Harry through the invisibility cloak. It can only be said that there is something wrong with this little girl herself.
"There are some problems. But I don't know the reason. In short, from the current point of view, you are different from others."
Luke weighed in and expressed his judgment.
After hearing this, Luna smiled happily: "Really? That's really great."
Obviously, Luke's comment did not make Luna feel panic, and she didn't care whether she was different from the people around her. Rather, it’s better to be different. If she were just like everyone else, how boring her world would be!
Luke felt that what he meant was completely different from what Luna understood. But he still shook his head: "I can't say, I have to go back and check the information and ask some people who may know. I will tell you when I get a relatively reliable answer."
Luke's intuition told him that emotional control, a talent belonging to Godric Gryffindor, was closely related to Luna's anomaly. But since he only has a superficial understanding of the background of emotional control now, he still needs to go back and think about it carefully.
"Dad is calling me. Let's meet again at school."
Luna looked at it
Xenophilius, who was waving to him not far away, said something to Luke and hurriedly walked in the direction of his father.
From this perspective, the Lovegood father and daughter are no different from a normal father and daughter. It's just that when two people chat together, the things they talk about seem a little weird.
Luke looked at Luna's back, his smile gradually fading.
There is a problem with Luna. If this problem is related to emotional control, it may be related to Gryffindor. Naturally, it has something to do with Gryffindor's legacy.
Good thing…
Luke couldn't help but smile. After being confused for a summer vacation, he finally found a new breakthrough point in the damn notebook.
………………
Time flies, the sun and the moon fly by. The time has come on September 1st.
Luke packed his bags and was about to go to Hogwarts where he was studying again. It is known as "the safest place in the UK besides Gringotts" and this title changed to "the safest place in the UK" after Gringotts was attacked last year.
However, in fact, anyone who really knows something about this school knows that this school actually has little to do with safety, especially in recent years. Because the "Savior" started his study life at Hogwarts, and this identity also attracted the attention of many people. There is some malice in it.
As another heavyweight who emerged last summer, Luke Gunter also attracted more people's attention to the second grade of Hogwarts.
Luke arrived at King's Cross Station on time and found a carriage to sit down at 11:30.
It didn't take long for Taylor to find Luke, approach the car, and hand his luggage to Luke. Luke used Slytherin's wand to make the luggage fly to the luggage rack. After the two of them were done, they chatted together in the carriage.
Not long after, Hermione walked in.
Compared with the original Hermione, the image of Hermione here can be said to have changed drastically. The originally messy hair was neatly shaped, and the originally arrogant hair became extremely docile. It also made Hermione's head look less sloppy.
The slightly protruding front teeth have also been shortened. As for the other teeth, because she has a dentist father, Hermione's teeth are still very neat, and they don't look lopsided or cross-legged. After the shortcomings of her front teeth were corrected, Hermione's smile was obviously more beautiful.
The clothes on his body are not too entangled in the tradition of wizards. She wore something more akin to a Muggle school uniform. Just put on the latest little wizard robe.
Over-the-knee socks and brown boots also add to a girl’s beauty.
That was clearly a plus, at least in Luke's eyes.
The girl looked at Luke's slightly absent-minded expression, with a hint of smugness on her face. But he quickly restrained himself. The much larger black cat she was holding in her arms jumped out the moment she saw Luke.
Then he stood firmly on top of Luke's head.
Luke pinched the back of Booker's neck angrily, weighed the weight, and said, "It seems you had a good summer vacation."
"Meow~"
Booker glanced at Luke while licking his paws, the disdain in his eyes completely undisguised. The man shoveling shit in front of me is obviously his master, but he has entrusted himself to a few girls throughout the summer vacation. I don’t even take myself with me when I go out to play.
Luke didn't bother to pay attention to the little guy who was angry with him. After holding the cat in his arms, he started chatting with Hermione.
Hermione was very interested in chatting and had saved up questions for the summer vacation. Many issues cannot be explained through letters.
So the two people started a relatively in-depth discussion on mathematics.
Taylor listened with interest at first, until she walked to the door and bought some snacks. When she turned around, she realized that she could not understand what the two people were talking about.
The two people were chatting enthusiastically, and when the train was about to leave, the two girls hurriedly opened the door of the carriage.
The moment she opened the door, the red-haired little girl found someone in the car and was about to leave.
But when she took a closer look, she found that except for the boy, she knew the other two people.
So he breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to take the friends he had just met to find his two sisters.
But what she didn't expect was that a black shadow shot out in front of her eyes like lightning. She subconsciously made a defensive posture. But the black shadow rushed in the direction of his new friend.
"Long time no see. Booker...you've gained weight."
Luna held the cat, which was much fatter than last year, with a dull, emotionless smile on her face.
"Meow!"
Booker shouted in dissatisfaction, "Can you please stop holding on to your weight!"
Booker's reaction made both Hermione and Taylor a little confused. Then they saw the smile on Luke's face.
"Sit here when you get here. The train will leave soon. It should be similar to other places."
After listening to his words, Luna sat down next to Luke without hesitation.
The two girls opposite Luke both killed this girl who looked good, had a unique temperament, and was particularly ethereal.
Luke didn't pay attention to the girls' gazes, but looked at the red-haired girl over there.
"You must be Ginny. I've heard George and Fred talk about you. Come sit here. I'm Luke Gaunt. You should have heard of me too."
