Chereads / Harry Potter' Natural Villain / Chapter 33 - Chapter 33: The Crazy Girl "Luna Lovegood"

Chapter 33 - Chapter 33: The Crazy Girl "Luna Lovegood"

The day had arrived for Malfoy to return to school at Hogwarts.

As he walked through the platforms nine and three quarters, he couldn't help but feel a twinge of sadness for two people in his heart.

He knew there would be big news that night.

As he boarded the Hogwarts Express train,

Malfoy noticed that there was an empty space around him.

No one was sitting next to him. It was clear that the rumors from last semester had not completely gone away.

Some Slytherin students who admired him sat a few seats away from him, possibly thinking that the lonely Malfoy had more personality charm them.

Malfoy took out his books and began to prepare for his homework, perhaps as a way to pass the time.

The titles of the large piles of books included those by Gilderoy Lockhart, as well as the newest issue of "Singing the Opposition."

In all fairness, Lockhart's "experiences" were actually quite interesting, but unfortunately they were the result of him stealing the experiences of others.

Those who had wandered with werewolves, swam with ghouls, and vacationed with vampires, only to be defeated by an oblivion curse, would probably not be pleased to know that their experiences had been packaged and sold by Lockhart.

Lockhart himself also proved that the combination of legendary experiences and good looks could be very appealing.

Just look at the signing event. He knew he was not only a "girl killer" but also a "teacher killer."

After reading these interesting and informative stories, Malfoy started flipping through the magazine he brought with him on the train, "Singing Contrast."

In fact, he found the unreasonable news and some people's wild imaginations to be more interesting than the creatures mentioned in the articles.

"Dad said that everyone who likes to read his editor's magazine must be a crazy person," Malfoy suddenly heard a ethereal voice say.

At the same time, the light dimmed and he looked up to see a eleven-year-old girl standing in front of him.

She had light golden hair mixed with brown and waist-length locks. Her light eyebrows and protruding eyes gave her a permanently surprised expression.

She had radish-shaped earrings and a butterbeer cork necklace, adding to her elusive appearance.

"Can you lend me this book to see?" the girl asked.

"Of course," Malfoy nodded and handed her the book.

Strangely, the girl took the book and sat across from Malfoy, flipping through it upside down.

"Maybe I should bring a Prophet Daily next time?" Malfoy couldn't help thinking.

Malfoy easily guessed the girl's name based on her iconic looks and odd mannerisms - Luna Lovegood.

Seeming to find something interesting, Luna suddenly laughed loudly, attracting the attention of those around her. But she didn't seem to care about the stares of others.

With the book lent to someone else, Malfoy was looking for something else to pass the time.

He took out a small book from his pocket with some of the pages divided into nine squares.

Some of the squares were filled with numbers, while others were empty. He took out a quill pen and began writing on it.

"What is this?" Luna seemed to read books very quickly, possibly thanks to reading them backwards.

She quickly handed the book back to Malfoy and asked him curiously as she watched him write.

"It's a small game invented by Muggles to pass the time," Malfoy said without looking up, focusing on his calculations.

"Isn't it supposed to be a number 7 here?" Luna pointed to an empty space with her slender fingers.

Malfoy checked it and saw that the answer was correct. His mouth twitched.

If he remembered correctly, he hadn't told the "crazy girl" any rules. "How did you figure it out?" he couldn't help asking, feeling a blow to his confidence.

"It's like someone is whispering in my ear that this number should go here," Luna said in her unique voice.

Malfoy's mouth twitched even more.

"It seems that this book is more suitable for you," Malfoy said, handing her the booklet.

Luna readily accepted it, saying in a dreamy tone, "Extraordinary intelligence is mankind's greatest wealth."

She then began filling out the answers, writing without the need for a draft.

"Intuitive players like you aren't qualified to say that, it's obviously cheating," Malfoy said, a little sullen.

He then began reading the magazine he had just put down.

"Thank you," Luna said, returning the completed form to Malfoy.

She stared at him with her silver-gray eyes for a long time before saying, "You seem lonely. I always feel like you don't fit in with this world. Although some people always say that, I feel like you're different from me."

"Is it?" Malfoy did his best to hide his surprise and joked, "Well, you are the only one who has spoken to me."

"You know I didn't mean that," Luna frowned.

"Fine, I'll continue to be lonely. When school is over, someone will tell you how terrible the person sitting in front of you is now," Malfoy said, trying to make a menacing expression in an attempt to scare the girl away.

"You're a good person. I don't feel any malice in your heart," Luna shook her head and said.

"Two good cards in a row?" Malfoy felt like he was causing a lot of trouble.

"Where can I find the horned snoring beast?" Luna suddenly asked out of the blue, making it difficult for others to follow her train of thought.

"I don't know," Malfoy answered absently, thinking to himself, "Maybe you need a mirror of Eris."

"What about the bubble-nose monster?" Luna asked.

Malfoy covered his forehead with both hands in frustration and thought to himself, "The most frustrating thing today is taking this girl's words seriously."

Luna looked at him curiously and said comfortingly, "Don't be sad, we always have a chance to find them."

She fiddled with her radish earrings as she spoke.
