Chapter 243 Clues

Although, the main job of the students is still to attend classes.

But when Harry and the others started today's charm class, they were surprised to find that Luke did not appear in the classroom.

"Okay! Let's start class!"

Professor Flitwick listened to the class bell rang, nodded and got ready for class.And at this time, a voice suddenly sounded.

"Professor! Professor Flitwick! Luke Gaunt didn't come to class!"

Theodore Nott stood up and said to Professor Flitwick.

In fact, many people present found this point.But everyone didn't point it out.

Ron, Harry, and Neville all looked at Theodore Nott over there with contempt.

They weren't sure if Luke had asked for leave or had somehow figured out how to skip class.The latter is not impossible.If it was Luke, there might really be some way to do such an outrageous thing.

So they pretended they didn't see this, so as not to delay Luke's affairs.

But now, there is obviously still one person who stands up and presides over 'justice'.

Theodore Knott caught the eyes of his classmates.But he didn't care at all, and just looked at Professor Flitwick expectantly, he was waiting for the professor to announce the death sentence to Luke Gaunt.

This was the first Charms class at the beginning of the school year, and he dared not to come, which is really arrogant enough.

In addition to those angry eyes, some people looked at Theodore with inexplicable eyes.

Among them was Professor Flitwick.

"Oh, yes, Mr. Nott, Mr. Gunter has some other things to do today, and he has already asked me for leave. I approved a leave note for him."

Professor Flitwick's expression was still gentle, he smiled and said to Theodore, who had an ugly face: "Sit down first, Mr. Nott, don't worry about Mr. Gunter's business, let us learn the spell in front of us first. gone."

Theodore sat down awkwardly.

The incomprehensible eyes before have turned into mockery.

Malfoy looked at Theodore who was not far behind him, and smiled coldly.

Does Little Nott want to vent his anger on Old Nott?But this method is too stupid.What if Luke did skip class?write check?

Do you really think Professor Flitwick doesn't think you're redundant?Why do you have to learn the spell in front of you first, because Luke already knew this spell.

Will a top student be punished by the teacher for skipping a class?

No, the teacher will worry about whether he will catch a cold when he sleeps in class.

"I thought he was pretty sure Luke was skipping class."

Hermione looked at Theodore with a thin face over there, and said helplessly.

Taylor was also very speechless, and could only say that Theodore was a normal kid.

But that's normal, it's not that if everyone is like them, then it's really going to be over.

Thinking of this, she looked at Harry and the others on the other side, seeing the smug smiles on their faces and the provocative smiles at Theodore.Taylor understood that these few were just children in essence.

"What was Luke looking for in the Restricted Section?"

Hermione asked curiously. ...Taylor said softly: "I only know that I am looking for information related to Doris. But I don't think things are that simple. He should have something else to ask for."

The sound of lectures from the podium was not noticed by the two of them at all.Such courses have no meaning for the two of them.After all, after intensive training with Luke, the speed of the two of them can be said to have improved by leaps and bounds.

In terms of magic spells, not to mention the theoretical aspects, even the actual combat aspects have already made considerable progress.The current spell class is really child's play for the two of them.

Hermione pondered for a long time, and Taylor looked at her solemn expression and thought she was thinking about something very important.Did you find any problems from Luke's few words?

Was Luke about to do something dangerous again but wasn't going to tell them?

Taylor frowned, while recalling Luke's possible abnormal behavior these days, he pricked up his ears to listen to Hermione's question.

But the next moment, she heard Hermione's question.

"Luke, what is the relationship with that little girl named Luna?"

Hermione asked a question that she cared about, which surprised Taylor.

Taylor looked at Hermione with a strange expression: "You really care?"

Hermione looked at Taylor's expression, blushed slightly, subconsciously wanted to shake her head, but finally nodded.

"I'm very concerned. The relationship between these two people is obviously unusual. Luke and her have a... tacit understanding."

Luke trusted both of them.Otherwise wouldn't have brought Taylor around on a regular basis.Nor would such important formula derivation and other things be handed over to Hermione.

This trust is obvious, even a little heavy.

But Hermione could feel that the connection between Luke and Luna was obviously not pure trust.But an inexplicable tacit understanding.It can even be said to fit.

Luna made her feel like an elf who didn't eat fireworks.She doesn't care what most people think and do about her.The look of a lone traveler.

And Luke gave her a similar feeling for a long time.It's just that Luke carried a kind of detached indifference.He has a feeling of detachment from everything.It's like watching a movie instead of living with them in real life.

After thinking for a long time, she finally realized that the similarity between the two people was here.

Hermione speculated that it might also be the source of the tacit understanding between the two.After all, this is the fit of the worldview.Fortunately, Luke has changed a lot over the years.He has become more and more able to integrate into this world.

And Luna still looks like this.Hermione really didn't want Luke and Luna to have more contact.What if Luke's state is taken over again?

Tyler had no idea what Hermione was thinking.She doesn't like reading the hearts of partners she already approves of.

"According to Luke, there is something special about Luna. Although I don't get along much, do you also think that Luna talks nonsense all day long?"

Tyler looked at Hermione, who nodded sheepishly.

The things that Luna chanted in front of them all day were either harassing horseflies or bent-horned snoring beasts... all of them were strange and magical animals that had never been heard of before.It feels very much like the fairy tales her father told her when she was four or five years old.Of course, when she was four or five years old, she didn't like to hear such grotesque and absurd things. … "Nothing to be ashamed of. Me too. I know a little bit more about Fantastic Beasts, not as proficient as Luke, but at a decent level."

"As you said, neither I nor Luke have heard of such a magical animal. But Luna swears, as if she can really see it."

To be honest, every time I chatted with Luna and talked about harassing the Gadfly, Taylor always felt a little bit in his heart.Because she said it with such certainty, as if they were right in front of her eyes, lingering around their heads.

More importantly, whenever such a thing happens, Taylor will read the other party's thinking, and the result can often match Luna's judgment.

Those whom she said had disturbed Gaflies around were really worried about something.

After talking to Luke, Luke told her seriously that Luna might have some strange talent, and it was a very important talent.It may be similar to him, the ability to perceive people's emotions, but the current Luna has not yet used it.

and so……

Taylor said to Hermione seriously: "There is something strange about Luna, and she may even have a strong talent. And this talent may be very important to Luke."

After Hermione heard this, she could only nod helplessly to indicate that she understood.It seems that the strategy she thought about before has to be changed a bit.

The two cannot be alienated, but Luna has some changes.Thinking of this, Hermione couldn't help but closed her eyes with a headache.Changing a person is difficult in itself.And what needs to be changed is a girl who is as selfish as Luna.

This is simply hell difficulty.

........................

On the other hand, Luke didn't know that someone was worrying about his affairs.Of course, what may be more worrying is my own affairs.He's been wandering around the Restricted Section for almost a morning.At present, it cannot be said that the progress is fast, it can only be said that nothing has been achieved.

"Are these two things so hard to find?"

Luke looked at a piece of books in front of him, sighed and said.

Whether it was information related to the Gorgon or books related to soul-protecting spells, he couldn't find any reliable ones.

The soul-protecting spells are easier to talk about. He searched around and found a few spells that only existed in the description, although there was no specific name or spell content.But with a little thought you should be able to find it.

But there was really no clue about the Gorgon.

"If you think about it this way, it's really better to go to Professor Flitwick's class."

Luke put a book back in its place and said with some emotion.

He didn't think he had learned well, so he didn't go to Professor Flitwick's class.He's not that arrogant yet.Even Professor Flitwick said that his level no longer needs a professor's guidance.

As a dueling champion and a master of spells, Professor Flitwick naturally has a different view on these spells.To be honest, Professor Flitwick is working at Hogwarts. If he is not working at Hogwarts, the price of a class taught by Professor Flitwick will probably be quite high. ... Luke always gets a little new inspiration every time he listens to Professor Flitwick's lectures.This little bit of inspiration may be an opportunity for progress.

He entered the restricted area with confidence.But judging from the current situation, he might come here in good spirits and return in disappointment.

But at this moment, he opened the next book he took from the bookshelf, opened it and took a look, his expression suddenly became serious.

"The fragility of the soul is mainly manifested in the lack of exercise and lack of protection. At the same time, even for wizards, the soul is not something that can be easily felt. The main reason that affects the former two is the latter."

"Perceiving the existence of one's own soul is the premise of all spells that directly hit the soul..."

It was the first time that Luke had seen a wizard explain issues related to the soul so systematically in a book.

He closed the book and glanced at the title of the book first.

In Search of the Soul... looks like a third-rate travel book.

But further down, when he saw the author of this book, the serious expression on Luke's face turned into shock.

"Helga Hufflepuff!"

Luke exclaimed.

It was the first time he had seen Hufflepuff's spellbook.As direct descendants of Slytherin, the Gaunt family still has several books by the other Big Three.

But the content basically has nothing to do with magic.Ravenclaw's book is about thinking patterns when thinking about problems.Gryffindor is a set of physical training methods.

As for the Hufflepuffs...that's a cookbook.

It is still a recipe mainly focused on desserts.

So this was the first time he had seen Hufflepuff books related to magic.

As far as he knew, there were only two or three books of the Big Four in the normal book area of ​​Hogwarts.And these two or three books were also smashed.

Almost every student will find these two or three books, or want to admire the demeanor of the strong, or want to find clues about the legacy they left behind.

But no one has gained anything.There are only a few books left, which have witnessed the imagination of generations of students.

As for the book in Luke's hand, there are not many traces of being read.

That's right, compared with the magic books around it that rippling with strange magic power fluctuations, this book looks so inconspicuous.

There is neither magic gathering nor any special decoration on it.It's just a simple book, and the self on the book looks like it's handwritten.There are also plenty of traces of modification.If it wasn't for the cover and title, Luke could have classified this thing as a diary.

Hufflepuff...is he good at soul magic?Or simply have a little time research on soul magic?

Luke wasn't sure, so he decided to put the book away for now.

As the first book I want to borrow.

Even if there are no soul-protecting spells on it, the content of this book is definitely worth reading.

When holding the book in his hand, Luke couldn't help shaking his head helplessly.It seemed that Ginny's luck was really good.Luke has confidence in himself, and it may be a bit difficult to develop a protective spell, but after understanding the principle, it is still somewhat certain to avoid the opponent's soul when casting the spell.

Looking at the remaining small area, Luke took a deep breath and decided to leave temporarily.

After all, the matter of Doris is not in a hurry.He has too many things on hand, and this note can be used repeatedly, so it's better to solve the problem about the soul spell first.

And on the way back, when Luke was flipping through the booklet, he suddenly found a picture.

On the painting, there is a woman with a good face, the upper body is unobstructed, and the lower body is in the tail of a snake.The most striking thing is that head, snake hair. .

I will not update to remind you: remember to collect after reading
