Chapter 437: The end of the semester

Whether it's a major cleanup within the company or the implementation of a new bill in the wizarding world, it's actually a big deal. But Luke didn't care about either of these things. Even his own owl will deliver at least two letters to him every day.

Today's dinner time, Luke received another letter. It's just that the letter was sent by an owl I didn't know.

Taylor glanced at the envelope, and at a glance he could see that the very good texture of the envelope and the delicate pattern of gilding on the envelope showed that the identity of the sender of the letter was not simple.

"Whose letter?"

They didn't have everyone together for dinner today. The semester is basically over. The Quidditch House Cup is due to be played in the final on these two days. Not surprisingly, Slytherin, who has the advantage of equipment, and Gryffindor, who has a genius Seeker, have the last laugh.

Moreover, Harry's equipment also crushed all the other little wizards.

"It's a joke to use firebolts on such occasions!" Draco Malfoy complained.

But it was a small gift from someone's godfather, and no one could say whether it was or not. Although Harry has always been taken care of by Luke, this kind of de jure elders, or even his father's people, has given him this kind of care for him for the first time.

"Old Lance's letter." Luke didn't hide it, opened the envelope in front of the four girls around him, and read the contents of the letter.

Fleur is used to such scenes.

As long as Luke had something to do, the other three girls present, even the most out-of-the-box Luna, would not make any noise to disturb him. And with this time of getting along, Fleur also knows the charm of Luke.

When a person is handsome, eloquent, emotionally intelligent, idealistic, passionate, and talented and rich. It is difficult for such a person to do without charisma. It's just that it will be too dazzling, and it will discourage many people.

Of course, everyone around Luke knew that he had such and such small shortcomings, so they didn't think he was the sun hanging high in the sky.

"Did you say anything?"

Fleur asked, after seeing Luke's gaze off the letter.

Luke put the letter back in the envelope and said, "Old Lance has come to plead guilty, saying that his men have been infiltrated by people from other organizations. ”

Fleur's expression was stunned when she heard this: "This ......"

Her first reaction was, of course, 'this is a big deal', after all, an organization, especially an organization that wants to hide its strength, has been placed undercover, and this is a very serious matter.

But before her words could be spoken, she saw that the expressions of several people in front of her did not change at all. I was not surprised by the news at all, and I did not feel solemn.

"Doesn't it matter?"

Fleur adheres to the principle of asking if she doesn't understand, and asks straightforwardly.

Luke didn't answer, and Hermione preemptively said, "It's not a big deal, the company itself is actually just a front." It is a deterrent on the surface, and it is also something that can be consulted. ”

"The main responsibility of the company is to make money, and everything else, that runs in the shadow of the company. These people can't reach it. ”

Luna also smiled and answered: "It's strange that there is no undercover, after all, the company is like a forbidden forest, and there are too many animals in it." ”

Fleur still felt a little helpless after listening to Luna's words. She could understand what this little girl was saying. But I still feel that her way of describing it is quite unique.

"yes, so don't worry. However, the clean-up plan is also being carried out. We're almost there. You can unload the mill and kill the donkey, and the team will be reduced. ”

Luke was also quite direct and unceremonious.

There's nothing to scruple about. The other party approached with bad intentions, and Luke chose to throw away the garbage after achieving his goal.

The two sides simply use each other, who has no use value first, and who discards who is purely based on the method. If Luke's means weren't high enough, or if the forces behind him weren't so solid, then it would be Luke who is being swept out of the house now.

Fortunately, Gemma didn't disappoint Luke either. His delegation of power has indeed paid off.

"Sister Gemma didn't hear from her?"

Taylor asked, a little puzzled, "It stands to reason that she should be the first to write to you." ”

Hermione and Fleur gave Taylor a keen look, then neither said anything.

Gemma Farley's power comes from Luke's trust. Taylor is not sowing discord now, but asking Luke to strengthen his communication with Gemma Farley. By the way, I also helped Gemma get rid of this mine.

Some words, after they are spoken, will not be chased anymore. Making a note in a small book in the bottom of your heart will end up worse.

"It's okay, Gemma must have discovered something else. It seems that cleaning up the company is not so simple. ”

There was not the slightest doubt in Luke's words. He also knew that Taylor meant to dispel his doubts, or if he had doubts, he told him not to worry. If there was anything wrong with Luke's mood, it was Taylor's reassurance that greeted him.

However, since he has decided to delegate power to Gemma, of course he will not be untrustworthy. However, this is also a different kind of test. Gemma successfully completed the work of cleaning up the company. But after such a long time without reporting, it is necessary to come up with a convincing enough result.

"It's good that you think so."

Taylor didn't continue to push on the topic, instead saying, "I've already planted the saplings you brought me. Judging from the experimental data of the living materials I have collected, there is indeed a good probability of success. ”

When Luke heard this, his spirits perked up, and the smile on his face became a little brighter.

"Then continue to research, you're welcome, and just ask Slytherin if you have any questions. He may not have much creative thinking, but the foundation and experimental ideas are definitely solid. ”

But Taylor didn't say so, and said helplessly: "But I'm going to stop." ”

When Luke heard this, the smile on his face froze for a moment, but after a while, it returned to normal: "No problem." I'm sure you're measured. ”

Taylor nodded: "My research has also gotten into some trouble. Moreover, it takes time for trees to grow, and it is impossible to fish all the water. I'm going to study in that lab again this vacation, Hermione, is that okay? ”

Taylor didn't bother with Luke and went straight to talk to Hermione. Because last time, she was also under the leadership of Hermione, so she joined that research team.

Hermione didn't hesitate and nodded, "No problem." Last time during the Christmas break, the professor asked us if we would be interested in doing another internship. It seems that you did make him love talent. ”

Hermione couldn't help but sigh a little. Taylor's talent for research, and the fact that she was completely out of touch with Muggle science, but the extraordinarily intricate nature of wizarding magic theory and application, made her a genius to be coveted by professors.

After all, Taylor is not inexperienced in research. Her research was just not in the same world as Muggle science. But even so, some ideas can inspire each other. It's also a kind of tactile bypass.

Taylor didn't refuse: "That's good, I want to learn more." ”

As she spoke, she looked at Luke, "If I want to go to a Muggle university, can I?" ”

Faced with such a request, Luke frowned and muttered for a moment: "There is no need for this for the time being. And even if you have to study, you can't start studying at university. ”

Luke explains: "It's the difference between two big trees. You've been climbing a big tree. If you want to learn the whole thing about another big tree, you can only start from the root of the tree. ”

"If you really want to go to university, I suggest you take advantage of this time to catch up on the basics. You don't need to make up for it all, just look at what you want to learn first, and then just learn what is related to this. ”

"I'm going to get back to you on that point. Here's a plan for you. If the pace is right, it can give you time to go to college next year. ”

"After all, the Three Witches Tournament will be held in the school next year, and relatively speaking, our learning will inevitably be delayed. Leaving for a semester shouldn't be a big problem. ”

Although in reality, if you just study for a semester, it will not be very useful. After all, Muggle science is not something that can be summed up in a few words. These two big trees, which seem to have no intersection, may also have a place to intersect after reaching a certain height.

It's just that Luke didn't say anything like this, and when Taylor went to study for a while, it would naturally be clear, and then, Luke believed that she would make the right choice.

The main thing is that there are no problems with Taylor's progress either. Even if you want to do this, you will inevitably have to be tested by the professors at Hogwarts.

Taylor nodded, she had anticipated all these difficulties. She's not hot-headed. It was a deliberate decision.

"Since we talked about the arrangements for the summer vacation......

Hermione looked at the other two girls and Luke and asked, "What about you?" ”

Luna said in a voice like a silver bell, "Explore." ”

Hermione heard this, and looked at the wreath on her head that still hadn't withered, not even a hint of dimness, like a fake flower.

"Or did this wreath tell you?"

Hermione asked, looking a little strange.

In the end, this question was answered in the affirmative by Luna.

"Yes, she told me."

"Okay...... I can't understand it, but it's good to just be safe. ”

As they got closer to each other and got closer, Hermione also knew how special Luna was. Sometimes, she always says something that people don't understand. But as time went by, and with a deeper understanding, they found that what Luna said was not unreasonable.

So, there is no ridicule now. Even if I don't understand, I just feel a little helpless.

Luna didn't care about the attitude of the others, just looked at Luke: "Does Luke want to be together?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Gemma and Hermione both lifted their spirits, and the eyes that looked at Luna were also a little dangerous.

Soon, however, they realized that it didn't work to communicate with Luna like that, so they looked at Luke together.

Luke smiled helplessly, then shook his head and said, "I also have some of my own things to deal with." I'm still not going to be with you this year. ”

After receiving such an answer, Luna's expression was not a little depressed, as if it was not she who was rejected.

Hermione and Taylor breathed a sigh of relief, and then when they looked at each other, their faces flushed slightly.

Luke's refusal had nothing to do with the two men. He does have some things to deal with on his own. After all, he has experienced a lot of things this school year. A lot of things have just been dealt with, and there are still things that need to be cleaned up.

After saying that, Luke looked at Fleur, "What about you, Fleur?" Is there any arrangement? ”

Fleur took a bite of the bread on the plate, and then said, "Special training." If nothing else, I'll be one of the Champions of the Three Witches next year, so I'll have to train a little bit to be more sure. ”

Although, according to common sense, the rewards of the Three Witches Tournament are not very rich. It's just some material rewards, and there is no so-called preferential treatment. But the name of the winner of the Three Witches Tournament is enough to change to a good job after graduation.

Albeit...... From this point of view, there is no need for Fleur to dwell on rewards and wins.

But......

"After all, no one wants to lose."

Fleur has never been an easily towel-defeating character. Not to mention that Luke is her boss, even if Luke is her husband, in the game, she will at most promise not to kill Luke.

However, she didn't doubt that Luke would be able to compete.

After all, for Luke, such an opportunity is just a hello to Dumbledore.

When two of the three principals of the three major houses were Luke's men, there was no suspense about these things.

To this answer, everyone in the audience nodded. They have all heard of the name of the Three Witches Tournament. Although it is a competition between students, the format is different each time, and the restrictions on participation are also different.

The only thing that is the same is that the contestants are chosen by the Goblet of Fire, and the other is that someone dies every time.

The former is a rule, the latter is more like a curse, and it is also an important reason for the suspension of this competition.

"The Three Witches Tournament is really important." Luke nodded.

After the Three Witches' Tournament, he will pursue his next plan in the UK.

After a moment of silence, Hermione said helplessly, "My vacation schedule is boring. Or learning. ”

She does have a good talent for memory magic, but it's just talent. Hermione, who has no relevant magical talents, is actually much lower than Luke and Taylor in the starting point.

Her studies are also more difficult than she imagined. Although she knew that Ms. Ravenclaw was squeezing her, she just didn't want to throw in the towel.

It doesn't make sense, it doesn't make sense that Hermione can't learn this thing. If you don't have the opportunity to learn, the opportunity is in front of you, and there is no reason to miss it.

Luke looked at the girls on the table and said with a light smile, "Then I wish you all the best during the holidays." ”

In this way, Luke ushered in the bell of the end of his third-year career.
