Being at Hogwarts, something's not right with this system.
139. The Mirror of Eris
The two-week holiday came to an end quickly.
The young wizards called it the Hogwarts Express, and after a long day's journey, it returned to Gryffindor Castle in the evening.
Thanks to the convenience of the Qiankun Ring, Lin Yu and Hermione didn't need to go back to put away their luggage; instead, they went directly to the restaurant.
"Lin Yu, Hermione, you've finally come back."
Ron, Harry, and the Weasley twins greeted them excitedly.
Ron also told Lin Yu, "My mom knitted you a sweater as a Christmas present. Fred, George, and I told our families about you. It's a pity you left with Hermione, so we didn't have time to give it to you. We'll give it to you when we get back to the dorm."
Lin Yu was both surprised and not entirely surprised.
After all, he had given the three Weasley children the Marrow Cleansing Pill. Although the matter of the Marrow Cleansing Pill was not as sensational as it was at the beginning, everyone had already witnessed its effects.
That's a really good thing.
Should I give a sweater as a return gift?
Never mind, it's the thought that counts, even if it's a small gift.
Hermione rolled her eyes, because Ron's words made it sound like she was the one who had kidnapped Lin Yu.
That's her boyfriend. Aren't you the ones trying to steal him away?
Harry then pulled Lin Yu aside and said mysteriously, "Lin Yu, I've made a discovery. I'll take you there tonight."
Lin Yu nodded in agreement: "Okay."
Although it's only been half a month since we last saw each other, we still miss each other quite a bit.
So they sat down and, while eating dinner, chatted and laughed about what had happened during Christmas.
Needless to say, twins always find something to do for fun or go on adventures.
Strangely, they preferred to drag Lin Yu along to join their adventures, but didn't want to bring their youngest brother.
This prompted Lin Yu to ask, "Didn't you bring Ron along?"
"Him?" Fred glanced at Ron instinctively upon hearing this.
George also said thoughtfully, "Actually, we've been hesitating, hesitating whether or not to admit that we're related to him."
Ron looked at his two older brothers with a puzzled expression, even though he was only two years younger than them.
Of course, they all knew it was the twins joking, and that they only played pranks on people close to them.
With the holidays over, the young wizards returned to school, and Hogwarts became lively again.
After dinner, Lin Yu gave Hermione a wink, preparing to quietly leave so he could go to the Room of Requirement to cultivate.
Harry stopped her, saying, "Didn't you promise me?"
Ron said from the side, "Lin Yu, you should go with him and take a look. There's a mirror there. But I think Harry's gone mad."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yu had already guessed what was going on.
Harry glared at Ron, then said to Hermione, "Hermione, I'd like to borrow Lin Yu for a bit."
Hermione chuckled and agreed, "Okay, remember to return it when you're done."
Lin Yu: What am I?
As Lin Yu was forced to leave with Harry, Dumbledore, sitting in the teachers' seat, glanced thoughtfully at their retreating figures.
On the other side, Harry led Lin Yu down the second-floor corridor, and they eventually arrived at a room.
This is an abandoned classroom that is never used; no one ever comes here normally.
So when they opened the door, they could see many tables and chairs piled up against the wall, and wastepaper baskets were upside down and carelessly thrown on the ground.
Only directly in front of it was a very impressive mirror, reaching all the way to the ceiling, with a gorgeous gold frame and two claw-shaped feet supporting it.
Lin Yu thought to himself, "Sure enough." He looked up and saw a line of words engraved on the top of the mirror: "Erisstra Ehru Ait Ubika Fru Ait Onwochs."
Perhaps even a Chinese translation wouldn't reveal much.
However, if you read it in English and backwards, the sentence actually means, "I am not showing you your face, but the desire in your heart."
Wordplay, just like Voldemort's name.
This is actually the Mirror of Erised.
"Lin Yu, do you see that?" Harry was already standing in front of the mirror, staring intently at it without turning his head. "Look, my family, my parents, and that person might be my grandfather. Even though I know they're all gone, they're right there now."
Lin Yu sighed inwardly. Poor Harry, he was only eleven years old, still a child.
At the same time, Lin Yu walked over to the Mirror of Eris. Then, Lin Yu saw his parents, who shouldn't be there, smiling at him and waving at him, as if they were really alive.
Besides his parents, who absolutely do not exist in this world, Lin Yu also saw that he was actually much older in the mirror; he was already an adult, and Hermione was also an adult, accompanying him.
They got married because they were wearing rings on the ring fingers of their left hands.
They were each holding a child, a boy who looked like him, and a girl who looked like her mother.
"Looks like you're both engrossed," a voice suddenly broke in, finally snapping them out of their reverie.
Lin Yu and Harry turned around and saw that it was Dumbledore walking in from outside.
"Harry, the gift I gave you wasn't for you to wander around the castle after curfew," Dumbledore suddenly said.
Harry exclaimed in surprise, "So the Invisibility Cloak was a gift from you? Why?"
Dumbledore shrugged. "Because it originally belonged to you; your father entrusted it to me, so I'm returning it to you. It's like returning something to its rightful owner. But I'm curious, Lin Yu, what did you see?"
Lin Yu looked in the mirror again, making no attempt to hide anything, and said, "I saw myself as an adult, married Hermione, and had a child of our own."
Dumbledore, both amused and exasperated, said, "Aren't you two already together? There's no need to be in such a rush, is there?"
You're already together, and I never expected to see your married life in the Mirror of Erised. Just how pure is your love?
Lin Yu smiled, but what he didn't say was that he hoped they could stay by their parents' side.
Or rather, going back to your parents' side.
Perhaps many children yearn to see their parents see them settle down and start a family.
Especially after he acquired that ability.
His sudden departure must have been a devastating blow to his parents.
"Alright, you two," Dumbledore wisely advised them. "This is the Mirror of Erised. It can neither teach you knowledge nor predict the future. It only reflects what you lack and the desires in your hearts. So do not get lost in front of this mirror, but instead pursue your own future." "To prevent you from getting lost in it again, I will have it moved to another place."
Lin Yu glanced at Dumbledore silently. Was he hiding the Philosopher's Stone?
In fact, Lin Yu had already told and probed Dumbledore's attitude beforehand.
Dumbledore also became suspicious of Quirrell.
But to catch a thief red-handed, Quirrell can only be apprehended by revealing himself.
And isn't Dumbledore planning to lure Voldemort out as well?
