Chapter Eighty-Three: Luna
As Harry sprinted towards the door, a bottle full of dead cockroaches burst open on his head. He slammed the door open and ran down the hallway until he and Snape's office were three floors apart. He leaned against the wall, panting, rubbing his aching arm.
He didn't want to go back to Gryffindor's tower so early, and he didn't want to tell anyone what he had just seen. Harry was terrified and unhappy, but not because Snape yelled at him or threw a bottle at him; Rather, it was because he knew what it was like to be humiliated in public in the middle of a circle of onlookers, and he fully understood what it was like for Snape to insult him when James had insulted him, just as he had been under Gurries.
Harry wandered aimlessly around the castle, turned the corner, and walked towards the fat lady, when he suddenly noticed a man in front of him nailing something into the wall. He took a look and saw that it was Luna. It was too late to dodge, she heard his footsteps, and Harry didn't have much strength to dodge anyone.
"Hello," Luna said, slurping in, glancing at him, and walked over.
"Why haven't you gone back yet, it's so late?" Harry asked.
"Well, a lot of my stuff is missing," Luna said calmly, "you know they always hide my stuff, but today is the last day, and I'm going to find them all, so I've made a mark." β
She pointed to a noteboard on the wall, with a table pinned to it that noted her lost things and clothes, as well as requests for their return.
Harry had a strange feeling; Neither anger nor sadness, but a feeling of sympathy, both of whom are ostracized beings in the crowd. This same feeling even somewhat diluted the deep irritability and depression in his heart.
"Why are they hiding your stuff?" Harry asked, frowning.
"Oh," she shrugged, "I think they think I'm a little weird, you know. Some people actually call me 'Mad Girl' Lovegood. β
Harry looked at her, and the feeling of sympathy intensified.
"There's no reason for them to take your stuff," he said weakly, "do you need me to help you find it?" β
"Oh, no," she said, smiling. "They'll get it back, and it's always going to be that way at the end. By the way, why don't you go back? β
Harry was silent for a moment, he didn't want to mention to anyone what he had just seen.
"The harassing fly is hovering around your headγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»," Luna said softly.
"What?"
"Harassing flies, they float into people's ears and mess up people's brains, I see a lot of them near your ears."
"Well, thanks, I'll take notice." Harry muffled as he realized that Luna seemed to be a little insane.
"Alright," Luna smiled, she took a few steps forward, turned around, and said to Harry, "It's getting late, you should go back too, and getting enough sleep will help you get rid of the harassing flies." β
Harry's heart was beating fast, and although Luna was dressed oddly, that ethereal aura was really appealing in that moment, and Harry found himself inexplicably relieved to be with Luna, and to forget about those worries.
"yes, goodbye then." Harry waved his hand a little reluctantly.
Saying goodbye to Harry, Luna briskly crossed the corner of the hallway, where a man with blue hair was standing.
"Are you here?" Luna's eyes were a little wandering, not afraid or weak, but looking at the person in front of her, and casting her eyes on some other unknown place.
Mo Wen frowned, "What exactly are you going to do?" I don't think I let you get in touch with Harry, and didn't I tell the Ravenclaws to stop bullying you? How could you lose something again? β
"The Hawkshire elves stole my stuff."
"There's no such thing at all." Mo Wen said unceremoniously, he had never understood the girl in front of him, even after signing the contract.
οΌοΌοΌοΌοΌοΌ
Half a year ago, in the Forbidden Forest, where the trees were unusually dense and dark as dusk, a girl with silver-gray eyes and waist-length hair was standing there, barefoot, holding a lot of meat in her hands and feeding a black monster. It was a skeletal black horse with a pair of expressionless, white, glowing eyes and a fierce face, followed by a pair of wings.
There was a rustling sound, and someone stepped on the fallen leaves.
"Luna, why do you keep running into the Forbidden Forest when you're here?" Mo Wen asked softly.
Luna didn't turn around, but continued to feed Thestrals, "Can you see them?" β
"Uh, uh-huh" Mo Wen nodded, "I can see it." β
Thestrals can only be seen by those who have seen death, and not long after Mo Wen came to the world, he saw Lucius kill Old Guris, so he could naturally see it.
"Are they pretty?"
"Well, they're very chic." Mo Wen replied vaguely, normal people should not like Thestrals.
"Really?" Luna didn't say anything more, instead turned around and continued to feed Thestrals.
"Loki's mask," she muttered quietly.
Mo Wen felt a little headache, he found that he couldn't figure out what this girl was thinking, she seemed to be different from ordinary girls.
Due to her insane behavior, Luna was isolated from school, and many of the students liked to bully her, hiding her things so that they could not find her.
Mo Wen intervened not long ago, he asked the Ravenclaw gang to stop bullying Luna, and also took the initiative to talk to her, in Mo Wen's plan, this should quickly shorten the distance between the two, but in fact, the relationship between the two has not progressed at all, Luna seems to be estranged from him, not much better than strangers.
At first, Mo Wen thought that his plan had been discovered, but after thinking about it, he didn't secretly instruct others to bully Luna, so there shouldn't be a place to show his feet. In the end, Mo Wen can only attribute this to Luna's intuition, or maybe she simply has a different brain than normal people.
Looking at the little girl in front of him, Mo Wen inexplicably felt a sense of frustration, he couldn't say that everything was going well, but for conquering women, there were really few people who could escape from his palm, Cho Zhang, Hermione, Ginny, Fleur, almost all of the beauties in the original book were included in his pocket, and even the Paraty sisters, Angelina, who didn't take much of the ink in the original book, were used by him a lot, as a character who occupied a lot of scenes in the later part of the original book, Mo Wen was naturally reluctant to let go of Luna, which was like a collector's habit, If you don't get it, forget it, it's always unpleasant to miss one. And Mo Wen was also curious about what went wrong with his plan.
With a swipe of his hand, a piece of parchment appeared in Mo Wen's hand.
As if sensing something, Luna turned her head and furrowed her brow.
"Can you sue me, why are you so alienated from me?"
"Because you're wearing Loki's mask." Mo Wen thought that there would be no answer, but Luna really had to answer him.
"What's that?" Mo Wen frowned, he had never heard of such a thing.
"It's a powerful magic item," Luna seems happy to explain, "a tool that makes people look glamorous, but actually gets tricked when they get closer." β
Mo Wen was silent, he didn't know if Luna really saw something, or if she was messing around.
The parchment in his hand suddenly turned into a ray of light and shot at Luna.
In the white light, Luna's eyebrows furrowed, "Harassing the fly's gift," she muttered softly, but didn't resist.
"Follower Contract." On the other side, Mo Wen was also a little surprised, he thought it would be a slavery contract, but he didn't expect it to be the result in the end.

"Okay," looking at Luna after the contract, Mo Wen asked again, "Why did you alienate me in the first place?" There must be nothing wrong with what I'm doing, right? β
Luna walked over and reached out to touch Mo Wen's face, the hand that had just grabbed the piece of flesh left blood marks on Mo Wen's face.
Mo Wen frowned, but didn't say anything.
"Sure enough," Luna muttered again, "you're wearing Loki's mask, and I can't see your face clearly." β
Luna turned around again and walked to Thestrals' side again, leaving Mo Wen alone to stand still, silent.

Zeng Jin's feelings came to Mo Wen's heart again, and he found that he had nothing to do with this girl, and he couldn't understand what she was thinking.
"What are you doing near Harry?" Mo Wen asked again.
"That man is in pain," Luna said to herself, "the elf of the night must have been harassing him a lot, and his original face was distorted. Her eyes were ethereal, as if she was saying something.
"Hmph" Mo Wen is a cold snort, now the connection between Harry's soul and Voldemort's soul fragment has become closer and closer, in this way, the two may be able to merge into one, and then Harry will be another 'Voldemort', but what does this have to do with him, in his plan Harry must die, whether it is for the sake of seizing the origin, or for personal grudges.
"It's none of your business, you won't be allowed to approach Harry again." Mo Wen didn't care if Luna saw something or not, and said brutally.
"There are a lot of hooks tonight," Luna muttered as she looked at the rooftop, but wondered if she had heard Mo Wen's words.
