Chapter 427: Nesting

Luke looked at the excited Professor McGonagall, and his expression couldn't help but fluctuate. Because he could feel that Professor McGonagall's emotions were even out of control for a moment when he appeared. And the excitement of this moment also made Luke really feel moved. He had always treated Professor McGonagall as an elder. And now it seems that Professor McGonagall really regards him as a junior.

Although this is something that has been known for a long time, every confirmation brings a new touch.

And, despite Professor McGonagall's cover-up, the tiredness and sleepiness on her face were still there. In other words, during this time, Professor McGonagall, who knew the truth of the matter, was also full of anxiety.

"Sorry for worrying you, Professor. This time I was really impulsive. ”

Luke bowed apologetically to Professor McGonagall.

Professor McGonagall looked at the apologetic look on Luke's face, and after a moment of silence, touched Luke's head.

"Don't be impulsive about anything, discuss it with everyone, maybe there is something else to deal with."

Luke didn't explain what the opportunity was, what luck, just nodded silently and promised, "Not next time." ”

"Alright, it's time to start class. Get back to your place. ”

Professor McGonagall said with a smile. Luke answered, and walked towards his place.

Although many students have seen Luke's return, there are also some students who are not in the habit of eating breakfast, so it is at this time that they only know that Luke has returned.

Luke and Taylor stood aside, quietly preparing for class.

Professor McGonagall collected her emotions and began to teach at the same pace as the previous lesson.

It's not just Professor McGonagall. None of the professors, including the other professors, would take care of Luke not coming to class for nearly a month. Because Luke doesn't need their care.

Sure enough, when it came time to actually start the practice phase, Luke completed the task with ease, and when the others came over to ask for tips, he answered enthusiastically.

Luke's methods are generally simple and effective, but there are always some students who are slow to learn, and Luke will not say that he must grasp the other person until he learns.

Soon, a lesson was over. Luke followed Professor McGonagall outside for a while and talked about some of the previous events, but Luke didn't tell him everything. The main thing is that the occasion is not quite right. It's recess. Although some of the students did not come closer, their attention was still focused on the two of them. So Luke didn't tell the town about the matter.

Today's Slytherin schedule was filled up and hit him. In the next few classes, the professors were relieved to see Luke show up.

It's just that after Snape's inconspicuous relief was not obvious, he changed his disgusted face in the blink of an eye. Then he frantically called Luke up to answer the questions, and evaluated Luke's potions with a rather stern attitude.

Luke was a little crying and laughing, and he didn't know what his favorite way of showing himself was. However, I still accepted this somewhat distorted concern.

Another professor with obvious anomalies was Professor Jenkins, a substitute professor for the herbal medicine class.

Luke knew Jenkins' identity was fake. And behind this face, he is not sure who it is.

But after seeing each other, Luke suddenly remembered that Barty Crouch Jr. should have infiltrated Hogwarts in a similar way, and taught Harry a few unique and rewarding Defence Against the Dark Arts lessons.

Compared to Luke's dueling teaching back then, Barty Crouch Jr.'s forbidden spell teaching is also quite a good path. If you want to defend, you must have an understanding.

However, Luke also knows that the original plot will most likely not happen. Barty Crouch Sr. handed over Barty Crouch Jr. to him, which was a very effective vote. Because in this way, one of the big handles of Barty Crouch Sr. was pinched in Luke's hand.

Barty Sr. loved his children very much. And the child really hindered his progress. Luke offered to solve the problem for him. It stands to reason that he should not have agreed. But a sudden impulse made him make this decision, although he felt a little unreasonable and annoyed afterwards, but the ease of body and mind, and the idea of fulfilling the dream of this life were placed in front of his eyes. He didn't regret his decision either.

Sometimes, all it takes is a push from someone else. Take this step forward, and you will find that the things that once stuck you may not actually be that important.

Of course, after that, his cooperation with Luke was quite pleasant, and it seemed that Luke had no idea of pinching his weakness at all.

Luke didn't take Barty Crouch Jr. twice a day to intimidate or remind Barty Crouch Sr. This person does not exist, so the cooperation between the two sides can be described as quite pleasant.

Fudge was also anxious at this time, because both Barty Crouch Sr. and Scrimgeour were already eyeing the position he was sitting in now. And after experiencing the sweetness of power, it is completely impossible for Fudge to give up such an opportunity.

So now, the Ministry of Magic is also calm on the surface, but in fact it is turbulent. And it's all about next year's Three Witches Tournament.

At this time, the competition is not even whether the event will take place at all. It's about who takes the lead. In this regard, Fudge has a natural advantage. Although he is an incompetent person in the broadest sense of the word. But when it comes to adding to the block, Fudge hasn't disappointed yet.

Of course, the outcome of these battles will have to be decided before next year's competition. Luke left the matter up to Barty Crouch Sr. to deal with on his own. This was his first test for Barty Sr. If even Fudge can't fight, he doesn't deserve to be his pawn.

Speaking of Jenkins's words, there was an indescribable excitement in his emotions the moment he saw Luke.

This made Luke feel that something was not quite right.

It stands to reason that the other party is the one who attacked him, and his emotions should be disappointed and wary of his reappearance. Does the other party think that he finally has a chance to kill him with his own hands?

If that's what the other party really thinks, then Luke can only say that the other party seems to be a little too arrogant.

However, such a performance made him suspicious after all. Jenkins was also a little more wary.

At the end of the day, Luke explained everything to most of his acquaintances.

At dinner time, he did not go to the cafeteria, but returned to his dormitory.

When he opened the door to his dormitory, he saw Booker sleeping on top of the closet. In fact, Booker's eyes had been watching warily at Joe, who was flipping through Luke's magic notes at his desk.

And on her own bed, Toris directly put her head on the pillow and stared at each other with the same vigilant expression.

However, not a single snake or cat acted rashly.

This situation made Luke quite satisfied. Although Joe is powerful and has a strong natural suppressive power over other magical animals. But in reality, he was only wary of both Booker and Doris.

There is certainly a reason why Joe did not show hostility. But I have to admit that both Booker and Toris performed great.

Luke walked over to the closet and opened his arms, and Booker leaped into Luke's arms. At this time, Booker can't be said to be a kitten. In Luke...... Under the careful feeding of female classmates, Booker's body shape is not obese, but it is definitely a bit too strong.

The impact of this leap made Luke even take a half step back.

"You...... It's time to lose weight. ”

As soon as Luke's words came out, Booker, who was still staring at Joe vigilantly just now, instantly turned his head in annoyance and hit Luke in the face with his claws.

Luke quickly took Booker farther away, and the cat's paws, which were not short but not long, kept slapping the air up and down. Luke could see that Booker hadn't even taken his paws out of the pad, so he smiled and took him into his arms again. Then he walked over to Toris's side.

When Toris saw Luke coming, she immediately climbed up Luke's shoulder along Luke's clothes, and then became Luke's scarf again.

looked at Toris with an aggrieved look. Luke rubbed her little head amusedly.

And then just like that, holding the cat in one hand and the snake around his neck, he walked in the direction of Joe.

"You look really busy."

Joe looked at Luke who was walking towards him angrily, "I've been doing nothing all day here. ”

"Aren't you just as idle over there? Why do you want to help me do something? ”

Luke said with a chuckle. Joe snorted, ignoring the teasing in Luke's tone.

"It's just that you're too bored here. Two little guys, that kitten is very smart, but there is not much room for development. However, it is still very qualified as a pet. It can also help you with some things. That little snake seems to be a little unsimple. But it's still too weak now, and even helping you is an extravagant hope. You'll probably have to figure out how to dig it out. ”

Jo commented on the two little ones, causing them to glare at her in unison.

But Joe didn't care at all. Luke smiled nonchalantly, too.

"They're all great little guys and my best buddies."

Luke didn't say anything else, just emphasized the positioning of the two little ones. He didn't expect much help from the two little ones himself. If there are too many things to endure for the two little ones who have not yet grown up, it can only mean that Luke is a little too incompetent.

"Anyway, aren't you going to send me to another person? I hope that person's side can be a little more interesting. ”

Luke smiled when he heard this, "Around her, you can definitely see more of the dark side of humanity than you think. ”

With that, Luke beat the closet, tapped it on the side, and a box of powder protruded from the wall of the closet, where there was no space. Luke grabbed a handful of powder and knocked on the head of a small snake on the fireplace.

Then the little snake plunged headlong into the stone below, as if it had been in the fireplace.

Soon, the original fireplace sank and disappeared, and a serpentine fireplace with a large mouth appeared in front of Luke's eyes.

Luke snapped his fingers, and a flame burst into flames in the fireplace.

"There's still something in this room of yours."

Looking at this series of operations, Qiao can still see how much gold content is contained in it.

Luke said calmly, "This is what I designed and made. ”

The layout of this dormitory is very complete and coherent in terms of structure and magic. However, the fireplace, like the fireplace in the school except for the principal's office, does not have access to the Floo network.

Therefore, it is also inconvenient to travel.

So after a week of careful study, he completed the renovation of the fireplace. At this point, there is also the help of insiders, so Luke's dormitory can also be connected to other fireplaces in the outside world.

Of course, this is also indispensable for Luke's Hogwarts-wide authority.

Actually, that's the most important reason.

"Catch up. Take you to more interesting places. ”

With that, Luke held out his other hand to Joe.

But Joe didn't bother with Luke's hand at all. Flew up out of thin air, landed on Luke's head, twisted his body, found a more comfortable position, and then said lazily: "Let's go!" ”

Luke twitched the corners of his mouth helplessly. Then he walked to the fireplace, shouted the name of his destination, and threw the powder in his hand.

In the next moment, Luke stepped out of another fireplace.

At this time, Gemma, who was pinching a document and carefully checking it, suddenly looked up and saw Luke, who had a rather strange shape at this time, appear in front of her eyes.

"Long time no ......"

Before Luke could finish greeting, he saw a tall and pretty figure rushing towards him, and then he felt like he was being hugged. Unlike Taylor's hug before, Gemma's hug was tighter, and it could be seen that she was actually more worried and panicked.

The three critters reacted a lot faster than Luke. Before Gemma could rush over, she hurried out of the place. Then Joe looked at Luke with disdain. If she remembers correctly, there was also such a welcoming little girl last night.

Really...... Phew, scumbag.

"You're finally back. That way, they don't have to do those little things. ”

There was a hint of longing, bitterness and relief in Gemma's tone.

Luke couldn't help but pat Gemma on the back with some distress.

But......

"No, you're going to have to let them keep doing the little thing."

Luke said with a smile.

"I also hope that their small actions can help me attract a few big fish."

If these people are solved by him by dividing them by two, won't they be shocked and laid a good nest?
