Chapter 323 Communication
The sun shines on the bed, flickering non-stop in the rippling water waves.
Luke's eyes moved, and his body's consciousness began to recover, so he felt something pressing on his face, and at the same time, he felt somewhat out of breath in his chest.
While opening his eyes, he stretched out his hand to remove the things on his face.After a distance, he finally saw what was in his hand.
Unsurprisingly, it was Doris.
Although Doris was arranged by Luke to hunt and carry out daily activities in the Forbidden Forest.But she was used to sleeping next to Luke.
Even if Luke is not there, he will sleep beside Luke's bed.
Gently putting Doris' tail back on the pillow, Luke looked at Doris and suddenly remembered the Gorgon in America.
He has brought his heart back.According to research, this heart can definitely accelerate the growth of Doris.Maybe soon, Doris will be able to get through the days when she can only appear in the body of a snake.
However, thinking about all the things that happened after Doris became a human in the upper body, Luke still inevitably felt a headache.
After all, I was raised as a snake at the time.Various habits, may be a little too dependent on myself.
If it really turns into a human form...
Luke blinked, then put the matter aside for now.This kind of thing is not to say that it will be able to figure it out in a while.Or think more about it.
So he looked at Booker lying on his chest again.
The news of this little guy is also well-informed. He knew the news just after he came back.
As for the fact that Booker came back to sleep every night, and it was only today that Luke found out about it, Luke wouldn't even think about it.After all, this little guy is very similar to him, and he won't move unless he sees the benefits.If he hadn't come back by himself, he would definitely have slept with that cute little girl again.
After all, Booker himself is cute on the one hand.Everyone also knows that he is Luke's cat.Even if a small group of people disliked Luke, no one dared to vent their anger on Luke's pet.
That's not too different from punching Luke in the face, and no one dares to take that risk.
Luke squeezed the back of Buck's neck and put him on the other side of the pillow.
Booker was in a deep sleep, and even then he didn't wake up.
The pedigree of the cat in the little guy's body is not low. As a kind of magical animal, the cat is quite intelligent. Like humans, it has a strong inertia. In the case of lazy cancer, it can really be lazy to a certain extent degree.
This is also the reason why many cats and raccoons are directly fat cats, and even in the hands of some doting owners, it is difficult to walk.
Booker's laziness was not so exaggerated, but he slept deeply.As long as he fell asleep and didn't wake up naturally, it would be difficult to wake him up with ordinary movements.
Luke didn't think there was any problem.The little guy sleeps as much as he likes. Although the little guy has played a big role, Luke will not have no channels to collect information without his cat.
He got up lightly, without waking up the two little guys beside him, then walked to the bathroom and started to wash.
He didn't go to hand over work to Professor Snape yesterday, that is to say, at least today, he didn't have to continue teaching the students.
In other words, today, he can experience the life of a pure student for a long time.
So in the midst of everyone's surprised gazes, Luke walked into the classroom of the Transfiguration class.
Professor McGonagall looked at Luke who walked in without any strange expression on his face.After all, she knew that Luke and the others had returned last night, and even learned a lot about Luke from Dumbledore.
So the way she looks at Luke now is somewhat complicated.She and Luke are closer than anyone else.She had thought Luke was an orphan with nothing but a noble name.After all, she still remembered the tragedy of Marvolo Gunter's family.
No one wants to have anything to do with such a stinky ditch.During that time, the surname Gunter also seemed to have been coated with a layer of sludge.This also made Professor McGonagall think that the heirs of the Gunter family would not receive much preferential treatment.
But she didn't expect that after Luke really appeared in the public eye and showed the talent and character of a normal, even genius little wizard, so many people would extend an olive branch to Luke.
Many people even kowtowed in thanks without needing Luke's body to startle.
It would be wrong to say that Professor McGonagall has no fluctuations in his mind.
One is that Professor McGonagall has never seen anyone treat him so politely in so many years.The Transformation Master has a great reputation and is very powerful.But still can't compare with Gunter.
Secondly, I always feel that Luke doesn't need her appearance much now.There are too many capable people around, and it is even said that now Dumbledore is about to become someone who is on Luke's side.You know, the position represented by Dumbledore has always been Dumbledore himself.
As for those studies, the two little girls actually achieved a lot after Luke gave them enough resources.It is both the efforts of the two girls and Luke's resources are sufficient.What's more, the talents of the two girls are outstanding.
It's not about trying hard enough.
But with so many thoughts, they just gathered into a complicated look.
After a simple Transfiguration class, Luke added points for Slytherin again as expected.After all, if he were to compete with his peers in subjects other than potions, it would be a bit bullying.
Transfiguration in the second grade was like a joke to Luke.
After class, Luke saw the look Professor McGonagall gave him.
So he silently followed Professor McGonagall.
"What's wrong, Professor?"
In Professor McGonagall's office, Luke sat carelessly on a chair and asked Professor McGonagall.
He would become extra relaxed in Professor McGonagall's office.After all, he was sure that Professor McGonagall had absolutely no intention of harming him.
"It's nothing, I just feel...you really don't have to use it for class."
Professor McGonagall organized the language, and then said with some helplessness.
"Your current level of transfiguration has surpassed that of a normal wizard. I'm talking about an adult wizard."
She took a deep breath and said: "If you really let a normal-level adult wizard confront you in the aspect of transfiguration, the other party is definitely not your opponent. Even if you put aside the difference in magic power, if you are simply The gap in skills is already huge.”
Luke nodded, he knew very well that his Transfiguration was systematic, and he knew it but didn't know why.Can be used like this.But I can't figure out the reason.And if he guessed correctly, waiting for the day when Professor McGonagall's research is completely completed, then such a transformation technique will be a powerful transformation technique that can be popularized.Even simpler and more powerful.
This is undoubtedly a revolution in the field of magic theory.
As a person who has enjoyed the fruits of the revolution in advance, Luke would be weird if his level is not a bit higher than others.
Professor McGonagall looked at Luke, and then said seriously: "Luke, have you ever thought about skipping a grade?"
"?"
Luke made a puzzled look, and immediately wanted to shake his head in denial, but after a while, he frowned again, showing a thoughtful look.
"The various things you are doing now are not suitable for continuing to do as a student. After all, as long as you are a student, you will be inconvenient in some ways. Especially when the student has become a proxy for your age. "
"A lot of people can accept the leadership of a teenager, but they have a hard time accepting the leadership of a second-year wizard."
"Your level, except for potions, has reached the seventh grade level. If you need, I can arrange for you to take the owls exam with this year's fifth graders. After that, you can become a seventh grader next year students, and graduated."
"After that, you're free to deal with those things."
Professor McGonagall analyzed Luke bit by bit. After all, in her opinion, the status of a student is indeed a bit of a waste of Luke's time now.
After becoming a seventh grader, there will be a lot more freedom.After all, seventh graders are also busy looking for jobs.Although in the wizarding world, as long as it is a normal wizard who can pant, it is generally not without a job.But there are good and bad jobs, that's for sure.
Especially for students whose families are not powerful enough to arrange a good job, those who are ambitious will often find their way into the Ministry of Magic.But there are actually only a few places each year.Naturally, admission is based on merit.
And the other students are naturally looking for their own way out.
And finding a way out will undoubtedly take a lot of time.So seventh grade students have quite a high degree of freedom.
Luke knew about this matter before, but not through the movies he watched that year.
After all, the seventh grade in the movie... is not a normal seventh grade.
However, amidst Professor McGonagall's puzzled expression, Luke still gave a negative answer.
"why?"
Professor McGonagall didn't understand.Everything in the initial stages is critical.She also watched Dumbledore establish the Order of the Phoenix back then, and she still has some understanding of the start-up of an organization.
And now, Luke still has time to attend class, which really surprised Professor McGonagall.
Luke shook his head and said: "There are many reasons. Although I have the opportunity now, it is still not suitable for me to show up immediately."
"The title of student will certainly hinder me in leading my subordinates, but it will also make many opponents subconsciously ignore or underestimate me. Compared with the former, the latter is more important to me, at least temporarily."
Of course, having said that, what Luke is more concerned about is that if he leaves, neither Malfoy nor Harry, nor Taylor or Hermione will be able to convey his thoughts to the new students for the time being.
What Luke wants is not only the support of the students in the next few years, but more importantly, to leave the soil for himself to make a comeback.
If you fail this time, as long as the spark of thought is still there, then it is not considered a complete failure.
But now, Luke still needs to do things like plant a fire in person.
Professor McGonagall saw that what Luke said was not clear, and knew that there were probably a lot of concerns in it, so he didn't say any more.
"...That's it, I'll help you find a teaching assistant."
After thinking for a while, Professor McGonagall said again: "You are my teaching assistant. You don't need to do anything. If you have something to do when you go out, you can use my name. When introducing your identity to others, Don’t say that you are a student or that you are a teaching assistant.”
After all, teaching assistants are not as good as graduates or professors, but they are already much better than second-year students.
Luke is usually unwilling to trouble Professor McGonagall for such a trivial matter, but now that Professor McGonagall has proposed it.Of course he would not refuse.
"This is also a good way to deal with it."
Luke nodded, satisfied with Professor McGonagall's arrangement.
Then the two chatted a few words about life and research issues.
Then Professor McGonagall asked: "This Christmas, are you interested in visiting my house?"
Luke was a little moved, but finally refused with a wry smile.
"I'm afraid not, Christmas is a good time and I might have to meet a few people."
Professor McGonagall is also helpless, Luke is indeed very busy, and in this kind of matter, others can't help too much.
So she waved her hand, indicating that Luke could leave.Luke didn't procrastinate, the two chatted a lot, and it was almost time for the next class, although he had various privileges.But the privilege is best not to be used lightly.
Unless you pay the price of being convinced by others.
But just after he got up, Professor McGonagall suddenly remembered something and said.
"By the way, there is another news to tell you."
Luke turned his head and saw Professor McGonagall's strange expression.He subconsciously had an ominous premonition.
"what news?"
Professor McGonagall pulled out a piece of paper from his drawer, and pushed it from the table to Luke's hand.
"The exchange student application sent by Beauxbaton. He said that he could exchange one or two students with us. He also said that it is best for us to give the list first."
Luke felt something was wrong when he heard the news.
"Professor, you agree?"
He picked up the letter and asked.
"There is no reason not to agree. You know, the school really doesn't think there are too many students, and exchange students are not a bad thing for students. But... I feel that the other party may come for you, so I ask your opinion..."
This is of course a polite word. Although Luke is valued, he will never refuse this request because of Luke. At most, he will conduct some negotiations according to Luke's ideas.
This is also a great help from Professor McGonagall.
Luke pondered for a moment.
"I have no objection, you look at the arrangement. But I don't plan to go to Beauxbatons. To be honest...France's wizard power is still intact. I'm worried that I will overturn when I'm surfing there."
Then he returned the letter in his hand to Professor McGonagall.
Professor McGonagall took the letter, nodded and said, "Then I know."
So he waved again.Luke also walked towards the door again.
However, when he opened the door, a short-haired, cold-looking girl appeared in front of him.
"Luke, I kind of want to talk to you."
