Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs

Chapter 42 A moment of weakness

The mermaid matriarch put down Lu Ke's hand.

Then the badge on Lu Ke's hand glowed.

That was Hufflepuff slowly emerging.

Eventually, she emerged from the water.

The mermaid matriarch looked at Hufflepuff with a surprised expression.

"I always thought……"

Hufflepuff smiled: "Hufflepuff is an ordinary-looking good guy?"

The matriarch shook her head: "I always thought that Hufflepuff was a mermaid."

"Otherwise, my ancestors would definitely not praise her so much."

Hufflepuff nodded, then turned to face Lu Ke: "I noticed something. You got unexpected help."

Lu Ke nodded.

"But actually, as long as it's help, it shouldn't be unexpected, unless it comes from your enemies."

Lu Ke was stunned for a moment.

He looked at Hufflepuff in disbelief: "So, every ally gained through a test should help in the next test?"

Hufflepuff nodded: "Don't hesitate to rely on your friends. In the end, you will find that you are actually dependent on each other. The essence of friendship is to help each other."

Lu Ke sighed.

Hufflepuff nodded: "This is not in line with your style of doing things. It's really strange. Why are you my successor?"

Lu Ke was speechless: "Maybe... it's a little accident?"

Hufflepuff shook his head: "Maybe, but that doesn't matter anymore."

"The next test is ghost. Don't expect to pass it so easily this time."

"I'm not even their friend."

Lu Ke could only nod.

Although Ravenclaw's map allows him to control the ghosts of Hogwarts, Lu Ke has no confidence at all when it comes to making friends.

He decided it was time to look for help off the field.

Just like Hufflepuff said just now.

But Hufflepuff had a smile on his face and glanced at Lu Ke: "Don't think that the house elves, centaurs, and mermaids in front of you can help. You have missed the opportunity to cheat, my successor. "

Lu Ke sighed and could only watch helplessly as Hufflepuff disappeared into the water.

The mermaid matriarch laughed unbridled in front of Lu Ke: "Ah, how does it feel to be ridiculed by a beautiful woman, Lu Ke?"

Lu Ke could only respond with a wry smile and remain silent.

The matriarch nodded to him: "It's time for you to go back, Lu Ke, we will be here. You can come here anytime you want to sing."

Lu Ke nodded, then turned and left.

The effect of the diving potion on him is about to end. Now Lu Ke does not have the courage to stay here and try to see when the effect will end.

Back on the shore, Lu Ke instantly felt like he was about to be frozen.

He rushed to the castle.

Of course, probably because of the blood of Reem cow, Lu Ke is not that afraid of the cold now.

He rushed straight into the Slytherin common room.

The fireplace here was burning brightly, and the heat instantly warmed Lu Ke.

He stood in front of the fireplace and picked up the Hufflepuff crest in his hand.

There are five silver snakes on it, three of which have opened their ruby ​​eyes.

Lu Ke couldn't help but wonder what the fifth race would be.

Apart from ghosts and the first three races, he really couldn't think of what the fifth one would be.

But for now, put all that aside.

Lu Ke was already very tired.

During the rest of the winter vacation, Lu Ke spent his days busy going back and forth to alchemy class, potion class, and herbal medicine class.

He really had nothing else to do.

But one day after Lu Ke completed the mermaid test, he saw Harry in the hall, who had disappeared for several days.

Harry looked distracted.

"are you OK?"

Although he knew that Dumbledore had lovingly corrected him, Lu Ke still expressed his concern.

Because Harry seems to be in really bad condition right now.

Harry just shook his head casually: "I...I had a nightmare."

Lu Ke was stunned for a moment.

"This is Hogwarts, and with Dumbledore here, you are absolutely safe."

Harry nodded casually and said nothing more.

Lu Ke hesitated.

"We can go and continue your Quidditch training if you'd like."

Harry glanced out the window, then shook his head: "Forget it, it's too cold outside."

Lu Ke could only nod silently.

He wasn't good at comforting people.

Just like that, the winter vacation continues.

The days when nothing happened always passed quickly. Lu Ke felt as if he had not done anything at all. There was only less than a week left in the winter vacation.

Harry still looked depressed.

Even with Ron accompanying him and the twins telling jokes and making jokes, Harry still looked depressed.

The twins intensified their efforts, using more powerful magic props to tease Lu Ke again and again.

However, it was still difficult for them to succeed, partly because the magic props were only useful to wizards, Lu Ke was a squib, and partly because his reaction was too bland and undramatic.

Just three days before the end of the winter vacation, Harry seemed to suddenly remember something, and then said casually while eating: "We forgot to go to the library to read the books Ron, Hermione will definitely tell her when she comes back." ”

Ron looked nonchalant: "Then let her find it. Anyway, we don't even know who Nico Flamel is."

Lu Ke, who was sitting aside, hesitated for a moment and sighed.

"Nico Flamel is the most powerful alchemist in history. As long as you know this, there is absolutely no problem in dealing with Granger."

A look of excitement flashed across Harry's face: "Hermione has nothing to say now!"

Then Lu Ke discovered that he had been tricked.

Lu Ke sighed helplessly.

"I'm sorry, Lu Ke."

Lu Ke shook his head: "You should find the answer by your own strength. Do you understand? Only when you have done some things yourself can you remember how to do them..."

"But forget it, it doesn't matter."

Who makes Harry a cute little angel now.

Harry smiled and Ron continued their game of wizarding chess.

After Lu Ke finished his meal, he went to continue his class.

He became more interested in herbal medicine classes.

Ever since Professor Sputraw said that last time, Lu Ke has been thinking about what his thoughts on the new greenhouse are.

The final result of such a radical design is actually a factory, a factory that produces medicinal herbs, and the people inside are workers.

But in fact, the greenhouse at Hogwarts is a classroom. If students didn't need to study, there would be no need for many herbs to stay in the greenhouse.

Maybe Lu Ke thought wrong from the beginning.

The original greenhouse was left by Hufflepuff.

Perhaps this greenhouse was originally a magical object as powerful as Hogwarts Castle.
