[hp]Hogwarts Eastern Exchange Student
Chapter 64: Chess Pieces Divination
After handing Pettigrew to Dumbledore, I was busy reviewing without paying attention to the plot. According to Harry, Dumbledore took Sirius to the Ministry of Magic to fight Fudge in the past few days.
On the second day after the exam, the whole school was filled with a happy atmosphere. Everyone ignored their exam results and gathered in the auditorium happily to discuss the upcoming vacation.
"Now, remove one of the pieces on your right."
Lavender looked at me anxiously, stretched out his hand and took away a chess piece tremblingly.
I scrambled the remaining chess pieces, divided them into two parts, counted them with my fingers, and finally wrote the last number religiously on the paper.
Harry tilted his head and read the handwriting on my paper.
"8, 8, 6, 9, 8, 8? What do you mean?"
I didn't answer Harry's question and wrote several Chinese characters under each number.
"Shaoyin, Shaoyin, Laoyin, Laoyang, Shaoyin, Shaoyin?" Qiu, the only one in the audience who knew Chinese characters, said awkwardly.
I nodded, "I converted these numbers into Yin Yao and Yang Yao. According to the principle of the four-part rule, the old becomes the young and remains unchanged, so the Qian hexagram was formed based on the original Yu hexagram——"
"Stop!" Lavender interrupted, looking at me pleadingly, "I don't need to know the principle, I just want to know what the result is."
I was silent for a long time while looking at the hexagrams. Under the gazes of all the Hogwarts students who had expired, I felt guilty and took out a ten centimeter-thick copy of the Book of Changes.
"Well, wait a minute, I didn't memorize this picture."
Crowd: ...
I found the hexagram according to the divination, and there was a big omen written under the hexagram.
Draco stood beside him and stretched his neck to read the book. When he realized that he couldn't understand, he curled his lips and asked curiously, "What's the result?"
"It's not very good..."
As soon as I finished speaking, Lavender collapsed and threw herself into Parvati's arms and cried loudly.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuah! My little bunny, ahhh!"
Parvati looked at me accusingly.
"Hey, it's almost done." Draco crossed his arms and stood in front of me, saying without mercy, "Can't we just raise the rabbit after it's dead? Shut your mouth quickly, you're disturbing my ears."
Lavender was so frightened by Draco that she held back her tears. Parvati also lowered her head and did not dare to speak. Only Ron stood up stupidly.
"That's enough Malfoy! How could you do this to a girl!"
After roaring, Ron turned to comfort Lavender and handed her a tissue. Lavender was moved to tears.
"You Gryffindors are really just as stupid," Draco couldn't stand Ron's pretending to be a nice guy, and taunted him for a long time, "The rats you raise are the enemies of your good brothers. You really care about animals. ."
"Malfoy!" Harry stood up angrily.
"Draco!" I pulled Draco.
You really can't open the pot and lift the pot.
Ron had already felt sorry for Harry because he had been spending time with Pettigrew without noticing anything was wrong. Harry and Hermione had been enlightening him in the past two days. Seeing that Ron's mood had just improved a little, Draco mentioned this matter again, which made the people around him feel uncomfortable.
"I'm sorry." Lavender couldn't help crying again when he saw the tense look of several people.
"Actually, Professor Trelawney has predicted that my little rabbit will die before. I don't want to believe it, so please help me do the math. It's all my fault——"
Ron hated seeing a girl cry the most, so he had no choice but to coax her, but for some reason, Lavender ran into Ron's arms and cried.
???
Did I advance the love story between the two?
Hermione scowled, threw the book on the table, and went next door to find Ginny. When the others saw this, they should disperse as well, leaving room for them.
"That's disgusting." Draco looked like he couldn't bear it, and pulled me back to the Slytherin table to chat.
Harry was the only one leaning against the table to watch his brother's excitement with interest.
"You are finally back." Nora filled two plates of mashed potatoes and handed them to me and Draco.
Draco took a bite and pushed it aside in disgust, took a plate of steak and asked, "Where were you talking?"
"We were talking about the Quidditch World Cup." Daphne braided Astoria into a nice braid and clapped her hands with a sense of accomplishment.
"There is a Bulgarian team this time!" Nora held her face in excitement, thinking of Klum's handsome face intoxicated, "This time I must let my dad buy the ticket closest to the stadium!"
"Then you may have to change boxes with Minister Fudge. You know, Fudge always sits in the place with the best view."
Hearing Blaise talk about Fudge, Nora was not so excited anymore. She stirred the cream soup in the bowl with a spoon and whispered softly.
"I'm not Draco. Fudge has never invited my family to his box."
Draco, who was eavesdropping next to him, puffed up his chest proudly.
I'm not very interested in the Quidditch World Cup, and I'm even less interested in the Death Eaters' group activities after the game in the plot. Sitting aside, slowly eating mashed potatoes, listening to their lively conversation, and smiling perfunctorily and nodding to the gossip they tossed around from time to time.
Seeing that I didn't speak much, Draco leaned into my ear and whispered, "Are you going to watch the Quidditch World Cup?"
Before I could answer, Draco looked around and found that no one was paying attention here, so he spoke quietly like a thief.
"If you come, I'll ask my dad to ask Fudge for a seat, and you sit with me."
Seeing the look of anticipation on Draco's face made it even more difficult for me to refuse, as I didn't want to go to the football match, so I had no choice but to nod in agreement and whisper like Draco.
"Okay, then I'll find you then."
Draco smiled with satisfaction and turned around to continue discussing the teams in this competition with everyone. I looked at the mashed potatoes on the plate and suddenly lost my appetite, and sighed silently in my heart.
In the end, I still didn’t escape the plot...
The flight time from the UK to China is much shorter than that of the United States, and the customs is not as strict as the United States. Just now, the customs lady scanned the box where I put my wand. I thought she would ask what was inside, but unexpectedly My sister looked up at me and smiled knowingly to let me pass. Then she pointed at herself under my surprised gaze and whispered, "I am a Ravenclaw."
!! ?
Amazing.
Unexpectedly, Hogwarts graduates have such a wide range of employment opportunities and can also find jobs in the Muggle world.
I thought I would be assigned to the Ministry of Magic directly after graduation.
After a series of ticket checks, I sent Xiaobai to the pet check-in. As soon as I got on the plane, I put on an eye mask and fell asleep, hoping to use sleep to overcome the jet lag. Unexpectedly, I became sleepier and sleepier, and I was still dizzy after getting off the plane. .
The driver of the Lin family saw me holding Xiaobai in the back seat and swaying sleepily, so he gently helped me put down the seat and closed the soundproof curtain.
In this way, I slept all the way from England to the Lin family mansion. Standing in front of the Lin family's gate with my luggage, I was still in a state of wandering. I yawned and opened the door, intending to go back to the house and lie on the bed to continue sleeping.
The door had just been pushed halfway open when a silver sword light came straight from inside the door. I was so frightened that I dropped my luggage, hugged Xiao Bai Yun Gong, stepped on the wall and flew to the roof.
"Lin Ziyu!!! You almost hurt Sansan!"
Lin Wanwan stood behind Lin Ziyu and stamped her feet angrily, while the culprit put away his sword in aggrieved manner and kept defending himself.
"I didn't see her. Who told her to open the door suddenly..."
I squatted on the roof and was speechless for a while. The three Lin family siblings below were wearing training uniforms and holding swords, obviously sparring. I didn't blame him for entering at this time.
Lin Zihao, the eldest son of the Lin family, walked to the door and helped me pick up the luggage I had left behind when I ran away in a hurry. He waved to me from below the room, "Come down. Brother, I will help you hold Zi Yu down while you beat him up."
I looked at Lin Ziyu's frightened expression and smiled maliciously. I jumped directly on Lin Ziyu and strangled his neck. I slapped his silver hair, which had just been sprayed with hairspray.
"Don't!! Lin Sansan!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I just got my hair done!"
I jumped down triumphantly and put my hands on my hips to admire the new hairstyle I gave him, "My life is almost in your hands, can't I just scratch your hair!"
Xiaobai also jumped down and tugged on his clothes, biting him as if to vent his anger.
"I'm wrong!" Lin Ziyu held on to her clothes with one hand and adjusted her hairstyle with the other, "Someone please take Bai Ze away from me! I just bought this training suit!!"
Lin Wanwan looked at his embarrassment and chuckled, picked up Xiaobai, smoothed her hair, and praised Xiaobai, "Oh, our Xiaobai also thinks Lin Ziyu is annoying, right? Who is the cutest little mythical beast?" ? We are novices, right?"
Lin Ziyu was a little disdainful of Lin Wanwan teasing Xiaobai like a cat, and said meanly, "Don't look at how cute he is now, he can bite your head off in one bite."
Xiaobai, who was being touched by Lin Wanwan, turned around when he heard this and spoke seriously.
"I don't eat people."
Lin Ziyu: "..."
Lin Wanwan: "..."
"He, he, he said something?!?" Lin Ziyu was so frightened that she jumped all the way away, tremblingly pointing at Xiaobai in Lin Wanwan's arms.
Lin Wanwan looked at Xiaobai blankly without saying a word, silently put Xiaobai on the ground, then silently walked behind Lin Zihao and covered her face.
"I just teased the psychic beast like a cat!!"
"Eh?" I looked at Xiaobai in confusion, "Don't you know that Xiaobai is a psychic beast? There is only one Bai Ze in Kunlun Mountain."
Lin Zihao laughed bitterly, "We thought this Bai Ze was an ordinary mythical beast, but we didn't expect it to be a purebred psychic beast."
As the so-called psychic beast is, it is a divine beast with abundant spiritual power and understanding of human nature. Purebred psychic beasts with higher levels are very rare and can understand and speak human language. The second type of psychic beast is like the enlightened beast in front of Kunlun Gate, which can only understand human speech.
"Actually, I just found out that he is a purebred psychic beast..." I picked up Xiaobai and touched the down on his head, "My grandpa said before that Bai Zetong can speak to all things, but I didn't think much about it. I didn't expect that I This is a treasure found.”
Xiaobai shook his little head in my arms in agreement.
"By the way... why are you practicing swordsmanship when you have nothing to do?" I looked at Lin Zihao and Lin Wanwan in confusion, "Don't you two work at the Metaphysics Association? Are you on winter vacation too?"
Lin Wanwan and Lin Zihao looked at each other without saying a word. Next to them, Lin Ziyu said quickly, "Hey, don't you know? I thought that boy from the Lu family would tell you, about the Metaphysics Association - Huh!?"
Before Lin Ziyu could finish speaking, Lin Wanwan covered her mouth and dragged her aside to lecture. Lin Zihao looked at the sky with an innocent expression.
"Brother...are you hiding something from me?"
"Ahem, no." Lin Zihao looked upright.
"..." I believe you, you big-headed devil.
Since I can't get anything out of my brother and sister's mouth, I'll wait until tomorrow to learn how to ask Lu Huai. Listening to what Lin Ziyu said, Lu Huai also hid it from me like them.
Since it has alarmed the Metaphysics Association, it must be a big deal, and we need to ask carefully.
I made up my mind and sneaked back into the room while my eldest brother and eldest sister were scolding Lin Ziyu. As soon as I closed the door, I turned my head and saw a shiny head.
"Uh, Dad, it turns out you are at home..."
Lin Yonghong nodded, put down the sundries in his hands, cleared an open space among the old things on the floor, and motioned for me to sit down.
I tiptoed over and saw some photos, old clothes, and some yellowed jewelry and necklaces on the ground.
"these are……"
"Your mother's relic."
My heart suddenly tightened, and I didn't know whether it was my emotion or the original owner's.
Lin Yonghong carefully wiped the dust off the photo. The photo was shabby and tattered. Only a woman's figure could be vaguely seen in the picture. Her facial features were blurred, but overall, the original owner's mother was really beautiful.
Among the many photos, Lin Yonghong picked out a clearer one and handed it to me. He said with a hint of nostalgia, "Your mother used to like this photo the most. She said it was when she was the thinnest. In fact, which one do I think she liked the most?" The photos are all beautiful.”
The two people in the photo were smiling sweetly close to each other. There was also a mark at the bottom of the photo. The elegant handwriting said: Lin Yonghong and Chu Ruyan want to grow old together.
Lin Yonghong looked at the handwriting and smiled and shook his head, "She may not know that after these few years, I don't even have any hair."
My eyes are a little sore. In the photo, the young Lin Yonghong clearly has such thick hair. What exactly did he go through after Chu Ruyan passed away to leave not a single hair left...
I didn't dare to ask, so I clicked on Chu Ruyan's face while looking at the photo in which I could vaguely see some facial features.
"Dad, look, my nose and mom's look similar."
Lin Yonghong nodded and said ostentatiously, "When your mother carried you out, everyone in the neighborhood praised you and your mother. You and your mother were carved from the same mold."
"It's a pity that you were too young at the time, and she passed away early. You don't even remember what she looked like."
I was silent and didn't know how to speak. In the memory of the original owner that I received, I really didn't remember Chu Ruyan's appearance. I only vaguely remembered her arms and her good smell.
Lin Yonghong took a wooden box, and the crescent-shaped pendant inside was polished until it shined. He gently picked up the pendant, looked at it, and put it around my neck.
"This is your mother's necklace. You put it away for her." Lin Yonghong glanced at it with nostalgia and reached out to pull out the necklace around his neck.
The two necklaces put together are a piece of intact round jade.
"Is this your love necklace?" I touched the cool jade stone curiously.
Lin Yonghong nodded, "Now I'll leave it to you to keep the other piece."
I feel ashamed. As an outsider, I am not qualified to keep Chu Ruyan's necklace for its original owner. But I don’t know if I will ever go back. Even why I came to this world is a mystery.
In my world, I was just a helpless orphan, working to earn a living. I finally passed the college entrance examination and suddenly traveled to this world. In this world I have family and friends, and it’s like I’m stealing other people’s lives.
I lowered my head and hesitated whether to accept it or not. Lin Yonghong reached out and patted my head.
"Don't feel pressured. You are my daughter. This is your mother's necklace. You should keep it for her."
Under his encouraging eyes, I finally nodded and accepted.
Although I don’t know where Lin Sansan has gone in this world, I will help her keep this necklace until she comes back.
