At King's Cross station, Sherrin and his brother Draco said goodbye to their parents, passed through the wall of platform nine and three-quarters, and boarded the Hogwarts Express.
Draco learned a lot of new interesting spells during the summer vacation. He said goodbye to Sherrin and couldn't wait to show off to his friends.
Xie Lin found an empty carriage again and leisurely flipped through this semester's textbooks.
At the same time, on the train, a girl with silver eyes, light blond hair, big eyes, pale skin, and very light eyebrows, wearing a pair of carrot-shaped earrings and a necklace made of butterbeer bottle corks, was holding a The suitcase, which was extremely huge compared to her petite body, was difficult to walk down the aisle in the train. The girl's eyes are sometimes awake and sometimes confused, with a strange and erratic temperament.
She gasped and politely pushed open the carriage doors. The students looked at her from top to bottom, and then said, "There are already people here."
She apologized, exited, and looked for other cars. In fact, she knew that no one they knew would enter those carriages anymore. She walked to a car located in the middle and rear of the train. The door was opened a crack. She looked and saw no one inside. She was a little happy, opened the door, and pushed the suitcase in first. But when she stood up, she discovered that on the chair on the other side that she had not seen, there was a boy sitting by the window, quietly flipping through the third-grade Potions textbook.
She recognized this boy, and it should be said that very few people in the entire Hogwarts would not recognize the boy in front of her. Ranked first in academic performance, the legendary hero who killed the Basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets, and won the Medal of Merlin by defeating the senior students. His body was shining with countless auras, and paired with his noble family background and handsome appearance, his body was so dazzling that his peers The senior students could only look up.
He seemed to be so focused on the book in his hand that he didn't even notice anyone coming in. But the girl who just came in realized that she should go out, because for some reason she suddenly felt ashamed of herself, so she said in a panic, "Sorry, I thought there was no one in this compartment, I'll go out now..." "
"Ah..." What she didn't notice was that two female students passed by behind her. She was about to exit, but she was suddenly rushed and she sat down on the ground. This was originally a small matter, and the two girls were more responsible. What's more, the confused girl fell to the ground, and the two girls were fine.
But the two girls stood at the door and began to scold and ridicule, "What's the matter with you? Don't you even have eyes when you walk?"
"That's right, why are you still passing by if you don't see anyone else?"
"Did you know that you almost knocked me down and I was injured? Are you responsible?"
The girl who fell stood up and kept saying: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
The two girls looked at each other, sneered in their eyes, and said mercilessly, "You're lucky this time, we won't care about you anymore..." They left with a satisfied smile.
Xie Lin looked at the scene happening at the door and frowned slightly. He clearly saw that the two girls did it on purpose. When they passed the door, they deliberately pushed the girl who was carrying luggage, and even showed the face of a victim.
Schelling deduced the girl's identity from her unique dress. Her name was Luna Lovegood. She was a minor supporting character in the original novel because of her weird behavior and different thinking. She is an ordinary person, so she is often bullied. She is the object of teasing and ridicule by the Ravenclaw collective, and even gives her the nickname "Crazy Girl".
Seeing her clumsily pulling her luggage and trying to go out again, Xie Lin didn't know why, but he felt an indescribable emotion in his heart about what happened to this girl. Xie Lin said softly, "There is still room here, you can stay." In this compartment.”
Luna Lovegood said "Ah" in surprise. "Well...well, thank you..." Luna Lovegood looked directly into Xie Lin's eyes and became quiet. She accepted Xie Lin's kindness. The little girl sat quietly on the bench, with a magazine spread out on her lap, and her wand was actually clamped to her ear.
Schelling considered himself not a nosy person, and everything he had done so far was to help him increase his strength as much as possible before Voldemort returned. But this time he did violate his usual style. He never expected that he actually felt sympathy for this girl.
Xie Lin is a time traveler. He has always been a little out of tune with this world. He has too many secrets in his heart, which prevents him from making friends sincerely. He can't even be honest with his closest relatives at home. In the long run, regardless of his No matter how strong he appeared, he could not hide the loneliness deep in his heart.
He tried hard to think about his emotions, and unconsciously cast his magic eyes on the girl opposite. The girl's magic power was not strong, but there seemed to be special power hidden in her blood. Xie Lin could feel the fluctuations of her magic power. The breath that is very close to nature is a magical property that makes people feel pure and peaceful.
Schelling still remembered that this girl was a pure-blood wizard. In the original book, she ended up marrying Scamander's grandson and becoming a magical biologist. She usually didn't speak in a tonal manner, but she had amazingly keen intuition. .
Maybe the girl at this moment doesn't know that her bloodline also contains some kind of ancient mysterious power. Since she is destined to meet her and she is studying bloodline magic, maybe she should help her discover the power of her bloodline.
In his own plan, the power he wanted to establish in Hogwarts was not limited to the people of Slytherin House. The number of Slytherins was originally the smallest among the four houses, minus those who shared his ideals. An irreconcilable pure-blood diehard, the number of followers he can attract is actually very limited.
In his mind, in addition to Gryffindor's natural incompatibility with Slytherin, students from Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw are also the ones he wants to win over, and Luna is very suitable as his student in Ravenclaw. As long as he helps her master the power of blood, her strength will be significantly enhanced, and it will be a matter of course for her to establish influence in Ravenclaw.
Xie Lin broke the silence and took the initiative to speak: "Are you Miss Lovegood from Ravenclaw? I am Xie Lin Malfoy, please call me Xie Lin."
Luna never thought that Xie Lin would talk to her. She stared at Xie Lin in confusion with her big eyes, as if she was wondering if she heard wrongly. This move may seem rude to others, but Xie Lin knew that her character was like this, so he didn't take it seriously. He smiled softly, pointed at the magazine she was reading, and asked: "What are you reading?" ?”
Luna seemed to come back to her senses, her face turned red, and she said, "Just call me Luna." After saying this, she felt her face was hot and even her neck was red. She quickly put down the book. He closed it, revealing the cover, and introduced to Xie Lin with some joy: "This is "The Quibbler," which is dedicated to telling secret anecdotes that are little-known in the magical world. My father is the editor-in-chief of this magazine. If you want to read this As for this book, I can give you a copy of each issue.”
"It sounds interesting. What kind of secrets are there?"
"You know that ancient magic is cast using ancient runes, right? This article talks about ancient runes. If you turn these ancient runes upside down, you can see that they are actually a spell, which can Drive away the harassing flies. By the way, you probably don’t know what the harassing flies are. The harassing flies are..."
At this moment, the carriage door opened again, and Daphne and Meredith appeared at the door. Seeing the strangely dressed Luna and the handsome Xie Lin sitting in the carriage, both of them couldn't help but feel an extremely weird feeling in their hearts. Feel.
To say that Schelling is one of the most popular figures in Hogwarts, I am afraid no one would refute this, not even Gryffindor, who does not get along with Slytherin. It has been a long time since there has been anyone as dazzling as Schelling among the lower class students, and some people have even begun to speculate that Schelling will be the next Dumbledore.
There is no doubt that Xie Lin is the most popular dream lover of the opposite sex in Hogwarts - not to mention his superb strength and dazzling fame, Xie Lin also has a noble background and handsome appearance. and a gentle, approachable personality.
Daphne has not forgotten that Tracy Davis and Audrey Runcorn among her classmates are eyeing Xie Lin and often take the opportunity to get close to Xie Lin. Slytherin's prefect Gemma Farley seems to He also invited Xie Lin to go out together more than once during the summer vacation, but Xie Lin always treated them with sincerity. Although on the surface he was always modest and polite, everyone could feel that he deliberately kept his distance.
Among so many girls, apart from Daphne and Meredith, there seems to be only one Ravenclaw beauty with long black straight hair, Maury McDougal, whose relationship with Shailene can be called good.
If someone spread rumors about Xie Lin and Luna's affair, Daphne and Meredith would never believe it - but at this moment, the two girls saw Xie Lin and this Luna talking and laughing with their own eyes. They just I find it unbelievable.
Xie Lin looked at the two girls standing there blankly, unaware of the thoughts running in their heads, and immediately shouted softly: "What are you thinking about? Come in and sit down! You are blocking the aisle."
The two girls came back to their senses and entered the carriage with very embarrassed faces and sat down. Sherlin said: "Let me introduce to you, this is the new friend I met today - Miss Luna Lovegood. She is here Ravenclaw is a year younger than us, but she knows many interesting things..."
Daphne and Meredith had come to their senses at this time. They first introduced themselves to Luna, and then cooperated with Xuelin to heat up the atmosphere during the chorus. They followed the topic and chatted with Luna about snorkelers and harassment. Flying flies and other fictional magical creatures that have never been heard of before.
Luna had never met a classmate who showed interest in her topic. She immediately opened her guard and chatted enthusiastically with the three of them. As a result, the relationship between them became more familiar, and the whole morning was spent in pleasant chatting. .
At lunch time, Sherrin generously bought a table full of candies from the witch pushing a trolley. Sharing food is indeed a great way to get closer. Soon, Luna, who was tempted by the delicious food, put down her reserve and joined in the feast.
After lunch, Luna began flipping through her copy of The Quibbler again.
Daphne brought the topic to this year's new prefect of Slytherin, "Hey, have you heard? There was a prefects' meeting just now in the prefects' special compartment on the train. This year's new male prefect of Slytherin is It's Cassius Warrington..."
An imperceptible glint flashed in Xie Lin's eyes, and he said coldly: "So, Gallup of the Lestrange family lost the election?"
Meredith took over the words, "Now that you are talking about this, it does feel a little weird. Although there is no explicit rule, the position of prefect has always been passed down among pure-blood families. Not only does the Warrington family He is a mixed race and is far from powerful. If he is made a prefect, many people will be dissatisfied."
Daphne said: "Yes, I think so too. Besides, even if Gallup is not chosen, Slytherin still has other candidates! Miles Blige is good. In addition to being pure-blooded, I heard that he has great strength." It’s also quite strong…”
Xie Lin said calmly: "Then, who is the female prefect?"
"It's Irina Selwyn from the Selwyn family. The Selwyn family are all mysterious. They are both pure-blood families, but not many people know what their main industry is. Don't look at her usual Keep a low profile, I heard privately that she is a ruthless and ruthless person." Daphne explained in detail.
Schelling had some hunch as early as last semester's Merlin test - when selecting contestants, Gallup was defeated and Cassius was selected. At that time, he felt that there were all kinds of weird things behind this. Now The same goes for selecting prefects. Xie Lin doesn't believe it if there is no shady behind it.
The only doubt is, is it Snape or Dumbledore who is behind the shady plot? And does this person have good intentions towards him and want to help him deal with the opposition forces within Slytherin? Or does he harbor evil intentions and want to intensify the conflict between himself and other pure-blood families?
