Chapter 106: Don’t Go Out

"You came early today!"

"Why, you're not welcome?"

Lu Yunkai looked at Daphne who rolled her eyes at him, and smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Humph, aren't you busy studying your communicator? Do you still have time to come and see me?"

"If you do that, I'll really leave!" Lu Yunkai rolled his eyes at Daphne, but still took out two copper coins from his pocket and handed one to Daphne.

"What is this... I think I've seen this symbol somewhere before." Seeing that Lu Yunkai gave her something again, Daphne was not so angry anymore, "Weren't you studying mirrors before? When did it turn into copper coins?"

"What? This is a door key." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "Didn't I promise to invite you to travel together before the summer vacation!"

"You still remember!" Daphne rolled her eyes again, "Oh! This is a horror trip!!"

"Of course! I signed up on the first day of the summer vacation. When I got up early this morning, I saw this door key light up, so I came to find you!" Lu Yunkai smiled and shook the one in his hand, "Let's go?"

"...Are you serious? I thought you were kidding!" Daphne's eyes were round, full of incredible surprise.

"Why would I lie to you. By the way, do you want to tell your mother..."

"I'll tell my dad! It just so happens that I haven't said hello to him this morning!" Daphne smiled and pulled Lu Yunkai, running all the way from the reception room to her bedroom.

This was the first time Lu Yunkai had entered Daphne's bedroom after visiting her home so many times.

How could it be as messy as she said? Not only was it clean and tidy, but it also had a faint fragrance...

"What perfume do you use in your room? It smells so good." Lu Yunkai sniffed and said seriously.

"I don't use perfume!" Daphne shook her head, then tidied her hair, sat in front of a gold mirror in front of the dressing table, took out her wand, and knocked on the mirror three times.

Soon, Daphne's reflection in the mirror disappeared, replaced by the face of Daphne's father who had not yet woken up.

"Baby, what's the matter again?" Baron yawned.

"Sorry, Dad, I forgot it's still dark over there... Well, it's like this, Yunkai asked me to go on a trip together..."

"Lu Yunkai? You live together???" Baron seemed to be in high spirits instantly, and he also saw Lu Yunkai standing behind Daphne.

"Hello, Mr. Greengrass! You misunderstood. I just got here." Lu Yunkai quickly explained.

"Really?" Baron looked at Lu Yunkai with hostility in his eyes.

"You can ask Madam." Lu Yunkai was not worried at all, "It's like this. At the beginning of the summer vacation, I signed up for a tour group. I want to ask if you can invite Daphne to go with you..."

"No."

"..." Lu Yunkai couldn't close his open mouth.

"Dad! Didn't you say that I can arrange my summer vacation as I like?" Daphne next to him jumped up.

"No! No!" Baron said seriously, "I'm sorry, baby, you really can't leave the castle now."

"Why?!"

"It's just... well, something happened before the summer vacation. For safety reasons... By the way, Lu Yunkai!" Baron couldn't say anything to Daphne's tearful expression, so he could only turn to Lu Yunkai, who was easier to bully: "I heard from Helin that you didn't live in Greengrass Castle?"

"... Even so, you still suspect that I did something to Daphne!" Lu Yunkai said with a complaining tone.

"Ahem... I just forgot." Baron was a little embarrassed, "This... well, because of some changes, you can't go out together, and it's not particularly safe for you to live in the Leaky Cauldron recently, otherwise you should live in the castle..."

"Dad!" Daphne still couldn't accept not being able to go out.

"Change? Could it be that Azkaban..."

"Daphne! Go talk to your mother and arrange for Lu Yunkai to move in." Baron interrupted Lu Yunkai.

"......Dad!!!" Daphne cried and acted like a spoiled child.

"Go!" Baron said with an irrefutable tone of authority.

"......"

Daphne ran out of the room crying.

"......Sir, is it really because of the man who escaped from Azkaban? Isn't he a Death Eater? It has nothing to do with us, right?" Lu Yunkai naturally understood that Baron wanted to drive Daphne out and talk to him alone.

"I haven't thanked you for the set of mirrors you gave Daphne. I feel much better to see her every day." Baron said something irrelevant.

"......You're welcome."

Lu Yunkai shook his head.

The first set of twin mirrors he bought from the system had been thrown aside since he started studying communications. He originally wanted to give one to Daphne, so that if she wanted to find him, she could contact him through the mirror at any time. But Daphne told him after seeing the mirror that if she wanted to see Lu Yunkai, she only needed a handful of Floo powder, but it would be difficult to see her father, after all, there was no Floo network in England that went directly to the other side of the ocean...

Well, so, one side of the mirror is here now, in front of Daphne's dressing table, and the other side is in Baron's hands on the other side of the ocean.

"How do you know about Azkaban? It shouldn't be possible for this to be leaked, right? The Ministry of Magic has been suppressing it for a long time..."

"You know it on the other side of the ocean, so what's wrong with me knowing it?" Lu Yunkai interrupted Baron, "Sir, who escaped from Azkaban? Why are you and Mr. Malfoy so worried about him?"

"Lucius? Oh, it's normal for him to be worried, after all, that person was not friendly to him before." Baron nodded.

"Who is that person?" Lu Yunkai didn't like this kind of riddle, "Isn't it just a fugitive? Why is it so fussy?"

"Oh, Lu Yunkai, that's not an ordinary fugitive." Baron shook his head, "That person is the most loyal follower of the mysterious man. If he hadn't endured humiliation and established a good relationship with James Potter, the mysterious man would not have been able to find him when he wanted to kill his son..."

"Potter?" Lu Yunkai's eyelids twitched wildly.

"Yes." Baron nodded. "Sirius Black. James Potter's best friend. Potter hid in his own Potter family house in Godric's Hollow and made Black his secret keeper... Well, that's a way to protect his own home..."

"Only Black knows where to find him?" Lu Yunkai understood the various types of house protection spells. Mrs. Zabini told him a lot before. "And he was betrayed by Black?"

"That's what happened. Black did help the You-Know-Who a lot." Baron nodded. "But speaking of it, if Black hadn't betrayed Harry Potter's location, the You-Know-Who should still be alive now, so there are still many followers of the You-Know-Who who think that Black actually wants to use this method to deal with the You-Know-Who, after all, his good relationship with Potter started at Hogwarts."

"...Using Harry as bait, at the cost of his parents' lives? Isn't this a huge sacrifice?" Lu Yunkai obviously didn't believe it.

"Many people think so. After all, in the eyes of those people, the life of the You-Know-Who is more valuable than the lives of a hundred Potters! So when Black was caught by the Ministry of Magic, no one, whether they opposed or supported the You-Know-Who, helped him. They even skipped the trial and sent him directly to Azkaban." Baron nodded, "This time he escaped, and people from both sides were very worried. I don't know whether he wants to complete what the You-Know-Who didn't complete, or to take revenge on those colleagues who didn't help him but stepped on him instead."

"So everyone will be very careful." Lu Yunkai nodded.

This kind of person who is full of hatred for the entire wizarding world is indeed dangerous.

"Don't take Daphne to Bermuda. Just stay at home."

"...How do you know I'm going to take her to Bermuda?"

"Only this route of the horror tour can be taken by minors. I took Daphne and Astoria there two years ago."

"..."

"Of course, it will be different for her if I take her there or you take her there." When talking about his daughter, Baron's eyes were full of doting, "But let's not go this summer. You will have plenty of opportunities in the future."

"...Yes, sir." Lu Yunkai nodded.

"Okay, go find Daphne and comfort her!" Baron smiled at Lu Yunkai, "I'd better go back and sleep for a while. I still have a lot to do today."

"Okay."

Lu Yunkai nodded, and was about to turn around and leave. The corner of his eye swept over the bell flower hairpin and the pair of earrings placed in the most conspicuous position on Daphne's dressing table.

…

"Sister! What are you doing? It's not like you haven't been there before, why do you have to?"

"You stupid girl! Shut up!!"

"I..."

Astoria was aggrieved and silent.

Just at this moment, Lu Yunkai walked in.

"Brother-in-law! Look at my sister! You promised her but couldn't go, and she got mad at me... Ah!! I have to stop talking!" Astoria jumped away from Daphne, rubbing her arm.

Daphne looked at her sister with tears in her eyes, as if she wanted to tear her apart alive.

"... Daphne! If you don't want to go, then don't go. Let's talk about it next year!"

"But..."

"It's okay. These few days... Well, I'll accompany you." Lu Yunkai thought about it, and it seemed that he couldn't come up with any other reliable arrangements, so he could only say this perfunctorily.

"Sister! You're so embarrassing." Astoria walked a few steps towards Lu Yunkai, and then taught her sister a lesson.

Daphne, who looked aggrieved and pitiful when looking at Lu Yunkai, cast a look at Astoria, and Astoria was so scared that she dared not say anything immediately.

"Otherwise..." Lu Yunkai sighed softly, "I'll take you to a place, but you must not tell anyone!"

"Okay!!"

Daphne stood up immediately.

"Sister!! Dad said not to let you go out... I will tell Dad that you have been with me these days!" Astoria almost patted her chest and swore to her sister.

"Humph." Daphne retracted her gaze and looked at Lu Yunkai, "Where are we going?"

"...Aren't you afraid of danger if you go out with me?"

"There is no place in the world safer than by your side!"

"That, sister..."

"..."

A look, shut up.

"Let's go, I'll take you to my house." Lu Yunkai said the destination.

"Your house? Where? That beer hall? Or the one in Liverpool..."

"Let's go!" Lu Yunkai was too lazy to answer, "But you have to wear the ear clips I gave you first."

Anyway, she will see it in a while.

"Oh! Good! Actually, I found that the ear clips look good on me, but my ears will hurt a little..."

Daphne hurriedly ran out of Astoria's room.

Lu Yunkai smiled helplessly and shook his head, and was about to follow him out.

"Brother-in-law, where are you going? Can I go with you?" Astoria gently pulled Lu Yunkai's clothes.

"..."

"Don't worry! I won't tell anyone! Including Dad and Mom!" Astoria swore.

"...Then see if you can get an ear clip from your sister and wear it."

"Ah??" Astoria instantly had a bitter face, "Brother-in-law, can you not embarrass me? If I dare to ask for the things you gave her, she will kill me!"

"..."
