Chapter 20 Diary

After arriving in England, Mu Yu did not go to Diagon Alley immediately. She looked at the elf who greeted him enthusiastically and calmly asked a question that she might already know the answer to: "Yuyou, tell me honestly, this Who was the previous owner of this house?"

This question frightened the elf so much that she knelt on the ground with a thud. If Mu Yu hadn't stopped her with quick eyes and quick hands, she would have hit her head on the floor immediately: "Little master, please , Please, Youyou has received the order, you can’t say it.”

She sobbed loudly.

"But I already know. My mother's name is Olivia, and my grandmother broke up with the Welfare family because she was a Muggle." Mu Yu knelt down and looked at the elf who kept shrinking after hearing the surname Welfare. " I'm just curious about where you came from. This shouldn't be considered a violation of orders, and I don't want you to punish yourself."

After hearing her words, the elf stopped trying to hit his head on the ground and looked at it in confusion. Looking at the girl in front of him. Wizards were used to holding their heads high when facing house elves. She had never met a wizard who would talk to an elf from an equal perspective.

This put a ray of light on her back.

"Yuyou's family has been serving the Welfare family for generations," the elf's eyes shone when she mentioned the Welfare family, as if this was her great honor, "Yuyou watched the young lady being born and growing up, Yoyo, Yoyo also advised "Miss Guo, that Muggle is not a good person."

At this point, the elf wiped his eyes hard with the dirty and shabby gown. Mu Yu suspected that if she hadn't given the order just now, the elf would definitely take advantage of this. punish yourself.

She didn't interrupt, just listened to the elf quietly, even though she couldn't understand the deep feelings a house elf had for a family.

"The young master asked Yuyou to find the young lady at all costs and serve the young lady's descendants forever." The elf now mentioned this with a proud expression, "Yuyou found the young lady and watched the young lady being born..."

At this point the little elf said The elf stopped abruptly, and the following content was probably something Olivia had forbidden her to reveal. Mu Yu was not interested in this at all.

Only then did she help Yuyou up: "Thank you."

The elf tried his best to avoid her touch, and even begged: "Please, Yuyou doesn't deserve this."

Mu Yu didn't force it, she was more concerned. Another thing: "If I understand correctly, since the Welfare family gave you away, you no longer belong to them, right?"

The elf's eyes widened and his mouth opened and closed. Mu Yu had already guessed her What she wanted to say: "My mother didn't choose to go back, and I won't either." There was even a bit of regret in her gentle voice, "This is cruel to you, but I also hope you respect my choice. I don’t want to have anything to do with the Welfare family, and you don’t want to make me sad or embarrassed, right?"

She was almost pleading, which was very seductive for a loyal house elf. Yuyou immediately shook her head like a rattle: "Of course, of course I don't want to," she choked with great difficulty, "Yuyou respects all the choices of the little master."

"Very good." Mu Yu touched the elf's head.

A simple compliment can make a house elf ecstatic: "Yooyo will not disappoint the master. Yoyo will prove to the master that Yoyo is the best elf."

"You have always been outstanding."

She praised, but she didn't say anything at all. People can see through the indifference that penetrates the bone marrow under the disguise of gentleness.

No matter what Gemma Foley's purpose was in reminding her on the first day of school, she had no intention of recognizing the kinship.

People are gone, so what's the point of worrying about this. What's more, only Mingyuan Mountain can be called her home.

She pinched the teleportation talisman and said Diagon Alley clearly.

It's always sunny in Diagon Alley. As school starts approaching, Diagon Alley is very crowded.

Mu Yu first went to Gringotts to withdraw some money. She looked at the book list for this semester, and the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher Gilderoy Lockhart actually requested seven books. Flourish and Blotts Bookstore was more crowded than usual, and there was a big poster posted at the window door. The poster showed a rather handsome wizard. But his smile was always a bit pretentious.

She struggled to find the book she wanted in the crowd at Flourish and Blotts, occasionally hearing whispers from the people next to her.

"Gilderoy Lockhart is so handsome. I heard that he solved a lot of things on his own."

"Hogwarts must have spent a lot of money to hire him this year."

She frowned. Don't tell her about that poster. The person pretending to be winking will be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher next semester. She has finally endured Quirrell, will she have to endure someone like Lockhart again?

The originally noisy and crowded bookstore suddenly became quiet, and everyone was His eyes were focused on the front.

Mu Yu heard a high-pitched voice, which was as greasy as the poster outside the bookstore: "Ah, look who I found! Harry Potter! Harry, I wish I could take a photo with you. Yes, friends, I am here to announce that Gilderoy Lockhart will be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts next semester! You will see a real magician at Hogwarts next semester. Me!"

She was about to vomit. She quickly found the textbook and was about to check out and leave, but she was stopped by someone.

"Yu" This was Daphne's voice. She was holding a pile of books and squeezed into the crowd with difficulty.

"Daphne, what a coincidence. Are you the only one?" Based on Mu Yu's attitude, she thought she was so surprised and happy to meet Daphne.

"Of course not, there are parents and Leah. They took Leah to choose robes. There were too many people in the bookstore, so I came in by myself. Leah..." She stopped in time and complained instead. , finally holding Mu Yu's hand, "Get out quickly, I can't stand this anymore."

The door was blocked by a family with red hair and a big man.

Daphne closed her eyes in despair, as if something unfortunate had happened to her: "Oh, no, Weasley..."

At this moment, Lockhart finally let go of Harry, and Harry squeezed back to Weasley with difficulty. The Lai family is here. He was obviously stunned when he saw Mu Yu: "Ah, Yu, what a coincidence we meet here."

Mu Yu smiled at him and greeted him politely: "Harry, how was your vacation?"

Speaking of vacation , Harry looked a little embarrassed: "I had some unpleasantness with my aunt and uncle, but fortunately, Ron and the others picked me out in a car."

Looking at Harry's thin appearance, she knew that he was in the world of ordinary people. Not having a good time. What’s interesting is that in another world he had to endure the pain of fame.

The feeling of tearing like this is enough to drive a person crazy.

It's a pity that Mu Yu is not good at comforting, and she is not very familiar with Harry. What's more, she has hesitated whether to save his life.

Fortunately, the situation at that time did not allow her to face this choice.

She simply responded: "I'm sorry, Harry. But at least school is about to start. Life at Hogwarts must be much more exciting than summer vacation."

Harry was about to respond when a cold and arrogant voice came from behind. : "Do you like the feeling of being in the spotlight like this, Potter?"

You didn't have to look back to know that it was Malfoy.

Mu Yu's back was turned to him, and he didn't recognize Mu Yu at all.

Daphne pulled her hard and whispered: "Go quickly, it will be bad if Uncle Lucius sees him."

She was planning for others.

However, Malfoy still saw Mu Yu, and his arrogant expression changed instantly. His face turned very pale, his legs began to tremble, and he almost couldn't stand: "It's... it's you."

"Are you surprised to see me, Mr. Malfoy?" Mu Yu looked at him playfully, deliberately adjusting his tone.

Ron was trying his best to hold back his laughter.

Malfoy was very angry when he saw Ron's look: "Weasley, what qualifications do you have to laugh at me here? Your family is going to go bankrupt this year. Let me see what your mother has to sell to support you in going to school." He never It is bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Ron's face turned red, and he was about to go forward to argue with Malfoy, when a tall middle-aged man came up and stopped him.

"Ron, Fred George, where are you? It's time for us to leave." He saw Mu Yu, and his eyes instantly lit up, "Oh, you must be Miss Mu. I heard that you grew up in the East. I have There are so many questions to ask about the East..."

At this time, a sneer came from behind Malfoy: "Arthur Weasley"

is Draco Malfoy's father.

"Lucius." Arthur Weasley said gloomily.

"The Ministry of Magic has been very busy recently. Busy with inspections..." He glanced at Ginny's tattered second-hand robes and old textbooks with contempt: "What good is being a scum among wizards? Look at the friends you have made, Eastern Man, Muggle, I thought your family could no longer be depraved..."

Before Mu Yu had time to react, Arthur Weasley had already rushed up and punched Lucius Malfoy hard. Mu Yu had to step aside. She watched helplessly as two adult wizards struggled in the bookstore, as if their wands were a pair of chopsticks. It was just a pity for the bookshelves in the bookstore. As the two of them struggled, rows of bookshelves fell down.

In the end, it was the taller Hagrid who separated the two. Lucius fiercely threw back the book he took from Ginny: "Take it, little girl. Your father can only give you this thing."

She clearly saw a black one falling out of the book. book. She always felt that this notebook looked familiar.

By some strange coincidence, in the chaos, Mu Yu quietly picked up the notebook left on the ground, and no one noticed her movements.

Lucius Malfoy glared at Arthur Weasley unwillingly again, and without saying anything, he led his son out of the bookstore.

Hagrid said in a rough voice: "Arthur, you shouldn't talk to Lucius Malfoy. The blood of the Malfoy family is already bad."

Arthur Weasley wiped his face, and he pointed at Mu Yu He smiled kindly: "I'm sorry, Miss Mu."

Mu Yu waved his hands repeatedly: "You don't have to be so polite, Mr. Weasley. Just call me Yu."

"Okay, okay, let's go." Daphne finally said She dragged her out of the bookstore, trying to avoid anything to do with the Weasleys.

Mu Yu let her lead him good-naturedly, and didn't wave to her until he reached a fork in the road. She didn't want to meet Daphne's parents and sister so soon.

At least not now.

"Then, see you at Hogwarts."

Unexpectedly, Daphne did not say goodbye immediately, but said to her: "You have always been... alone."

She quickly added: "I mean, do you live alone in London? "

All of Mu Yu's thoughts were occupied by the notebook, and she responded absently to Daphne: "There is another house elf. I really have to go. Goodbye."

She walked so fast that she didn't hear the goodbyes behind her.

She wasn't used to this.

As soon as Mu Yu returned, he couldn't wait to take out his notebook and look at it. The faded date on it all shows its age.

She had seen exactly the same book in that orphanage, but it looked newer.

So it was no surprise when she turned to the first page and saw the name at the bottom.
