Wo Bu Geng Xin
Just because Luke didn't open the letter for the first time didn't mean he didn't care about it.On the contrary, there must be demons when things go wrong, and Luke thinks there is definitely something wrong with this letter, even if he is not so careful.
So he chose to open the letter in an empty classroom after eating, but before class.This empty classroom looks ordinary, but it is the closest classroom to the principal's office.Although Luke didn't dare to go directly to the principal's office to open the letter.But if it is opened here, even if there is any danger, he is confident that he can block the first wave, and then Dumbledore, the guy who can apparate in the school, will definitely arrive at the first time.
And if Dumbledore can't arrive, it means that although it is dangerous, the matter is still within the scope of Luke's solution.
No matter what, it's not a loss.
And Luke also asked Taylor to go to the office in advance. Although it may reveal his purpose, Luke will not let the stupid accident of 'Dumbledore just not in' happen.
If you risk your own life, you must make all preparations in advance.
Luke first lifted Doris out of his arms, and then let her watch from the edge of the classroom.
Doris looked worried, but Luke had already given the order, and she had to be obedient.So he could only crawl to the corner of the classroom step by step and turn his head back three times, ready to rush to Luke's side at any time to advance and retreat together with him.
Luke was moved, but things always had to go on.
So he picked up the letter, took a deep breath, took out a paper knife, and let it rotate around his fingertips with a sense of elegance, so as to relieve his nervousness .
After that, the hand was raised and the knife fell, and the envelope was opened.
Nothing happened.
Luke breathed a sigh of relief, and then used a paper knife to pull out the letter paper.
An ordinary piece of letter paper, this is Luke's first impression of this thing.And when he used the levitation technique to bring this thing closer, he found that his first impression was not wrong.
He is just an ordinary piece of letter paper.
But when Luke's attention was focused on the content of the letter, he froze for a moment, and then his face darkened.
He looked at the letter without anger, but with surprise and confusion.
But it didn't take long before he put the letter away.Take a deep breath.
Doris returned to Luke's side as soon as she saw that nothing happened. Although she couldn't understand the contents of the letter, when Luke looked at the letter with a solemn expression, she looked at the letter. Xin also made an attack posture.
Be ready to rip that letter to shreds.
Luke touched Doris's little head to comfort the little guy, and then ruthlessly stuffed Doris into his pocket again, ignoring Doris' protests.
"What's wrong with the letter?"
Taylor looked at Luke who walked out of the classroom, his expression was not very good, so he asked with some concern.
"Someone wrote me with the details of the attack we were going to have."
Luke's expression softened a lot, but there was still a bit of an aftertaste of being on the verge of a formidable enemy.
Taylor frowned after hearing this.Luke had told her that there might be an attack on Halloween night.But he didn't know the intensity of the attack, but it was probably in the form of a dangerous magical animal attack.It can be regarded as a relatively conventional attack method.
But the place where this attack was happening was no ordinary place.
Those who dare to attack Hogwarts, will they not make careful plans?If such a plan was leaked, it might be a trap for the other party.And the authenticity of this information is still uncertain.Maybe it was to let them relax their vigilance on purpose.But why send a letter to Luke?Can it be given to some professor, or directly to Dumbledore?besides……
Seeing that Taylor's expression became more and more solemn, and even tended to develop in a gloomy direction, Luke also guessed that Taylor was thinking a little too much.
"I didn't expect the plan to be less thorough. It's not normal for two mentally disturbed people to be able to work out a seamless plan."
Luke quickly expressed relief: "So this letter is probably not a trap. The two of them... To be honest, I don't think it's strange to do anything strange."
After all, there is only one giant monster, even if it is two people involved in a big plan, it still makes people wonder where to complain.
"But how did the other party know about me... This point really needs to be thought about carefully."
This problem was one of the reasons why Luke looked ugly at first.As for the other reason... Who is the sender of this letter?Luke didn't think it was simply that the person who helped Voldemort with magical animals was the sender.
Such a glove can detect its own movements?How can it be!
So there must be an organization behind this.An organization that hides deeply, but has frighteningly wide tentacles.
Is it a saint?
Luke's first reaction was this powerful organization originally loyal to Gellert Grindelwald.But after Grindelwald entered Nurmengard, they rarely appeared.
After thinking about it, Luke decided not to think about it for now.The information at hand is really too little, no matter how much you think about it, you can't get any accurate answer.
Furthermore, even if it was an organization that never appeared in the original book, he wouldn't find it too strange.Let's not talk about the story in the original book, and we are firmly attached to this one-third of an acre of land in the UK.Even if it is a British organization, there are not only Death Eaters and Order of the Phoenix.Just because the rest haven't played, doesn't mean they don't exist.
But judging from the current situation, the other party shouldn't have any malice toward him, otherwise he wouldn't have surfaced so easily.
"Luke, who is going to attack us..."
"It's a mysterious person."
Luke was not hiding any more, and told Taylor the answer.But because it is a bit close to Tom now, and the timing is more sensitive, so he still replaced 'Voldemort' or 'Tom' with 'Mysterious Man' from the bottom of his heart.
It's not because I'm afraid, but mainly because I don't want to take such unnecessary risks.
Luke could clearly see that Taylor's emotions changed from shock to anger to hatred and then to calm.
This made him quite emotional while admiring it.Having hatred is not terrible, but keeping calm in the midst of hatred is the most difficult thing.
"I didn't tell you because I was worried that you would lose control of your emotions. But it seems that I still underestimate you."
Luke smiled and patted Taylor's head.
Taylor ignored him and just took a deep breath.
"Don't worry, after so many years, I won't lose control so easily."
During the period of being tortured by hatred, what she learned the most was patience.
"Don't worry, I've already made preparations, and with this information, my preparations can go a step further."
Luke smiled and assured Tyler, "I'll let his plan fail while ours succeed."
But Tyler didn't heed Luke's assurances.
"I believe you can do it. But..." She looked at Luke with fixed eyes, and saw Luke put away the smile on her face, "Dumbledore...does he know about this too? "
Luke looked at Tyler's face.
The complexity of emotions was not even clear to Luke for a while.Prayer, hope, loss, anger, fear...
In the end, Luke gently touched Taylor's head, and said softly: "He may not know the other party's plan, but he does know the other party's existence."
Emotions are at peace.
The emotional dust Luke saw went from colorful to pale in an instant.It was the first time Luke had seen this oozing whiteness.He knew that such whiteness was definitely not just as simple as calm.
Perhaps it would be more accurate to add 'desperate' as a calm attribute.
Or... there is nothing more sorrowful than heartbreak.
Now Taylor may have completely given up on that principal.
Just as Luke was about to speak, Taylor shook his head.
"I know that he may have some difficulties and plans. But these are not important anymore."
Taylor's tone was cold, as if he was not angry.
Luke looked at her for a long time, then spread his arms and gave Taylor a hug.
"Sorry, I shouldn't have kept it from you."
Luke sincerely apologized.
Tyler looked up and met Luke's eyes.Luke felt seen through again.But this time he didn't use Occlumency.
"Last time?" Taylor asked.
"One last time," Luke replied.
After a moment of silence, Taylor took a deep breath and said, "If you really think telling me is not good for me, you don't have to tell me."
After finishing speaking, she looked at Luke and said seriously, "I'm serious."
Luke looked at her face, let go of his hand and smiled and said, "Okay, but I will think about it carefully."
After finishing speaking, the two of them had a tacit understanding not to mention this matter, chatting while walking towards the direction of the classroom.
……
In the afternoon, Luke walked towards Professor McGonagall's office with a little doubt.Along the way, he was wondering, what did he do to make the professor aware of some secrets of spiritual power?
Thinking about it carefully, it should be the last time, the step-by-step deformation operation.And that step-by-step transformation did consume a huge amount of his mental power.He didn't know why.But the result is what it is.
Tried again afterwards, and indeed achieved a similar effect, but not as good as the one in class.This also made him more suspicious.
But this time, it was Professor McGonagall who asked him some questions, and he also went to Professor McGonagall to discuss the possible reasons behind it.
Of course, he didn't know if Professor McGonagall could explain it.After all... Maybe the professor doesn't know how to use mental power?
With that in mind, he knocked on the door of Professor McGonagall's office.
"Please come in!"
And when Luke pushed the door and entered.He saw a scene that surprised him.
Scattered manuscript paper, a blackboard full of strange words, a messy room, and Professor McGonagall, who is scribbling on the desk with disheveled hair and a tired expression, but his eyes seem to have light.
And Luke watched all this, inexplicably felt a little familiar.
"Luke, you're here! It's just right, come here and help me look at this thing!"
When Professor McGonagall saw Luke coming in, he shouted excitedly.
Luke stepped forward cautiously upon hearing this.Every step must be aimed at the foothold so as not to step on the irregularly distributed draft paper on the ground.
After he sat down, Professor McGonagall immediately found one of the messy draft papers on the table, and handed it to Luke.
Luke took the manuscript paper, and then suddenly thought of where his inexplicable sense of familiarity came from.
In the previous life, some of the scientific research experts he came into contact with were in this state when they were doing some key experiments, and they were even crazier.At least Professor McGonagall now knows that he has to go to class.And what he often saw in those novels, animations, movies, and games in his previous life, isn't the mage's laboratory what it looks like in front of him?
"The special transfiguration you performed before gave me a lot of inspiration."
Professor McGonagall's words brought Luke back from memory to reality.
"Our normal transformation is directly catalyzed by magic power, imagined in our minds, and with a strong desire, we can complete the transformation."
The corner of Luke's mouth twitched, and what Professor McGonagall said was simple, but what he said was the same as putting an elephant into a refrigerator in three steps.
If it were really that simple, Transfiguration wouldn't be a difficult subject with a high failure rate.
"But what you did last time made me suddenly understand that the step-by-step process of transfiguration might be a better educational method. So I made a new attempt,"
Professor McGonagall looked excited.
And Luke is really not surprised that no one has thought of this method before.The outside world is in the 20s.The authority of the gods is about to be crushed into dross by natural science.And the life of the wizards here is basically not much different from that of the wizards in the Middle Ages.
If you insist, there has been a change in everyday wear.There is also the continuous improvement of the Quidditch rules.And the continuous adjustment of the functions of various departments of the Ministry of Magic.
And the others... heh...
But Luke still didn't make a mockery.After all, not everyone can understand that closure leads to backwardness.Especially those who think they are superior.They often have great contempt for the progress of those they despise.Until the end suffers the consequences.
Change is necessary.
"However, Luke, I find that such a method is not practical. Because when used, such a transformation is more than twice as difficult as a normal transformation."
Luke frowned when he heard this, he didn't think so, he even thought it was easier.
But looking at the excited look on Professor McGonagall's face, he knew that this would not be the end of the discovery.
"However, I finally discovered that if this kind of transformation technique has the participation of spiritual power, the success rate will be higher! It will be more controllable! Although I haven't found the real point and standard. But Luke! You Know what that means?!"
Of course Luke knew.
"It means that Transfiguration can no longer rely on pure talent. Even high-end Transfiguration can be mastered through more connections. Even if there are still restrictions, it will not be like the current Transfiguration. People without top talents, It’s just the basics that you’ve learned.”
So he chose to open the letter in an empty classroom after eating, but before class.This empty classroom looks ordinary, but it is the closest classroom to the principal's office.Although Luke didn't dare to go directly to the principal's office to open the letter.But if it is opened here, even if there is any danger, he is confident that he can block the first wave, and then Dumbledore, the guy who can apparate in the school, will definitely arrive at the first time.
