Harry Potter: The Atypical Alchemist

Forget it, favors come and go.

Besides, Hermione wanted to ask why she could not ask.

After putting away the envelope, Stone turned off the crystal lamp in the alchemy room. It was getting late. He should give the letter to them tomorrow.

The hazy moonlight passed through the window. When he walked out of the alchemy room, through the moonlight, Stone glanced at the cipher box on the workbench.

This thing...can't be helped.

After several days of research, he could feel that there was a certain pattern in the rune plate on the top cover. It might be an address, but what exactly the pattern was and where it pointed to, he couldn't figure out.

But there's no need to worry, since I won't be able to leave school for a while anyway, so even if I untie it, I can only watch.

Even if it really comes to a head, he still has another solution.

As for now, he still wants to solve it himself - that method is a bit hurtful.

"Click——"

After closing the door, Stone turned in the direction of the common room.

Just stepped onto a step...

"Stone? Is this where you make alchemy?"

With the ethereal and deep voice, a layer of goosebumps appeared on Stone's arms.

Fortunately, the voice was familiar, otherwise I would have thought I was seeing a ghost.

"Huh -" Stone turned around mechanically, "Luna, don't be so surprised, okay?"

While breathing a sigh of relief, Stone looked at Luna.

Then he frowned.

Luna...looks a little miserable.

Only one shoe was left, and the pair of weird but handmade carrot earrings were also missing.

"What's going on? Is someone bullying you?"

"No." Luna shook her head, "It's just that some things are hidden."

"..."

This is being bullied!

The dissatisfaction in Stone's eyes became more intense.

The shoes might have been lost outside, but things like earrings couldn't be torn off by force. They could only be from students within Ravenclaw.

We don't know the senior Stone very well, but we all know each other. There is no reason to bully the freshmen. Then there are only first-year students, who are most likely Luna's roommates.

"You have to tell Pei about this kind of thing..."

Stone stopped mid-sentence.

He originally wanted to make suggestions and let the prefects handle these matters, but...

The probability of a snitch being isolated is too high. Regardless of whether her purpose is to protect herself or to create a good environment, at least the first-year students will be very unhappy.

On the other hand...Luna herself doesn't really care about this, and doesn't seem to be faking it.

What kind of monsters are this year's Ravenclaw freshmen?

Luna didn't care, she just had a straighter mouth.

Those bullies really want to taste the iron fist of love, right?

"...Let's go."

"Ah."

Luna nodded indifferently and followed Stone's pace.

In the common room, Stone saw Penelo sitting on the sofa reading a book. After Luna left, Stone sat next to her and told her the matter in a low voice.

"!"

Penello, who frowned, glanced at the direction Luna was leaving and said in a deep voice:

"okay, I get it."

"Well, then it's up to you."

This is a bullying incident.

The atmosphere in Ravenclaw has always been good, and even if it was for his own sake, Stone would not let the first-year students mess around.

There was a long time ahead, and he didn't want to study and live in an awkward Ravenclaw.

I hope Penello can put an end to this bullying situation, but if she can't...

"Then I'm leaving."

"Well..." While muttering, Penello looked Stone up and down, "You go, I've also thought of a way to go find Luna."

"Row."

Stone walked to his dormitory.

Penello looked at the direction in which he was leaving, blinked, and when Stone completely disappeared from the end of his field of vision, he stood up and walked to the girls' dormitory.

... ...

Then Stone got a little follower.

When he got up and had breakfast in the common room, Stone was completely confused.

At that time, Penello put his arm around Luna's shoulders, stood in front of him, and said, "From now on, Luna will learn from you!"

There was an inexplicable brilliance in their eyes, making it easy to tell that they were lying.

Stone was asking "Is this your approach?"

The question was rather vague, Luna couldn't understand it, but Penelo could understand it, and then he saw Penelo nodded heavily.

Okay...it's a big circle and I've wrapped myself in it. But since Penello nodded, he had no reason to refuse.

... ...

"really?"

After listening to Stone's explanation, Hermione showed doubts in her eyes.

"real."

Stone and Luna nodded simultaneously.

Then, Luna took Hermione's arm and pulled her away from Stone. She glanced at Stone and whispered:

"Actually, it's not about studying. We lied to him."

"Ok?"

"Senior Penello said that Stone always likes to cause trouble for himself when he is doing alchemy. He gave me a task and asked me to watch him and not mess around."

"Oh -" Hermione nodded with deep understanding, "Indeed."

"Yeah, as long as you know this, don't tell Stone."

"no problem!"

After agreeing, Hermione took Luna's hand and walked to Stone.

Then Stone split Luna's arm open with a palm.

There is nothing wrong with girls holding hands, but this is England and there is a problem.

After getting rid of Luna, Stone also dragged Hermione to the previous position and explained to her in a low voice what happened yesterday and Penello's solution.

"..."

After listening to Stone's explanation, Hermione's brain shut down.

Two versions of the same thing, both versions are true, and both parties don't know each other.

"Senior Penello is amazing!" Hermione exclaimed.

"It's awesome, it just caused me some trouble."

"..." Hermione glanced at her boyfriend like a fool, "Yeah, it's only after school time anyway, thank you for your hard work~"

"Okay, as long as you don't get angry."

After speaking, Stone handed Hermione the reply letter from 701:

"Reply, I have read the letter, and there is no punishment."

Hermione took the letter, and then saw Stone pointing sideways at her cheek.

"What?"

"Isn't it too much to give a reward?" Stone asked with raised eyebrows.

After realizing what Stone meant, a blush crept onto her cheeks.

She lowered her head, glanced left and right, and stood on tiptoes after making sure there was no one else around.

At the touch of a button, Hermione covered her face with the envelope and fled the place quickly.
