Zhang Qiu also wanted to exercise together.
However, she was too delicate and frail, and even a little exercise caused her to scrape herself, leaving the dumbbell rack covered in blood.
Therefore, Levin had to work on his own.
Next, Levin fully experienced how skillful his Transfiguration was and how stable the dumbbell rack he created using the [Wood Shaping] technique was.
If his technique were even slightly lacking, the frame would have creaked and groaned from the violent shaking.
About an hour later, just as Levin finished his second round of push-ups and was about to start his third round of squats...
Suddenly, I heard footsteps approaching the room.
"Zhang Qiu, someone's here!"
The two quickly got up and helped each other tidy up their disheveled clothes.
After the two of them quickly put on their socks, for some reason, one of Levin's socks was missing. Perhaps it had been thrown away somewhere!
But there wasn't enough time to search for it myself.
There was a knocking sound at the door.
Zhang Qiu immediately calmed his breathing and said in a normal tone, "Please come in."
Just before the doorknob was turned, they experienced everything in their lives, but could not express it in words.
"Hey Levin, you guys are in this room? And this is... Zhang Qiu?"
It's Tonks!
She saw the two people sitting side by side on the sofa, blinked, and asked.
"Yes, this is my senior from Ravenclaw, Cho Chang. We're currently in her room discussing ancient Chinese texts."
Levin raised the copy of "Baopuzi" in his hand, looking extremely serious, with an innocent expression in his eyes.
"Oh, hello Zhang Qiu, I'm Levin's older sister, Nymphadora Tonks. I'm sorry, I didn't know this was your room. It's a pleasure to meet you." Tonks introduced herself to Zhang Qiu in a friendly manner.
Zhang Qiu felt her cheeks burning and quickly smiled, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Tonks. I've heard him mention you before."
“Then I won’t disturb your conversation any longer,” Tonks said with a light laugh.
“We’re done too, and we’re getting ready to leave and go back to school to rest,” Levin said quickly. Zhang Qiu nodded repeatedly.
Tonks didn't speak. Her eyes glanced, intentionally or unintentionally, at the messy bedding and the water stains on the floor, then swept over the two of them before turning and leaving.
She gently closed the door.
Levin and Zhang Qiu looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Do you think she found out?" Zhang Qiu bit her lip and asked softly.
"Probably not," Levin reassured him.
The two people who were interrupted hurriedly packed their things, looking as if they were fleeing in panic.
They didn't see Tonks again until they reached the living room.
"It seems she's already gone." Levin let out a soft breath and gently put his arm around Zhang Qiu's waist.
Zhang Qiu smiled and rolled her eyes at Levin.
"Uh, Levin, Cho Chang, we meet again." Tonks appeared at the top of the stairs on the second floor, holding a copy of "The Book of All Laws, Part One," which he had just copied.
"Ah, we're heading back to Hogwarts now. Goodnight, Tonks," Levin said, his smile fading as he tried to appear calm.
"Good night." Tonks smiled and walked down.
Just as Levin and Zhang Qiu were about to activate the [Mansion Technique], Tonks suddenly said, "Levin, next time you're studying Chinese literature, remember that your socks should be hanging on the outside doorknob, not on the female senior's feet."
Cai Wen immediately stopped casting the spell, then quickly opened the door and left the tower with Zhang Qiu without looking back.
On the other side of the portal, Tonks' voice was slightly somber: "Levin has grown up."
Levin emerged from the tower and appeared directly in the Ravenclaw lounge.
Zhang Qiu had disappeared.
This is normal. That's how the "luxury house trick" works. Where you enter, you will naturally come out in the same place.
Levin guessed that Cho Zhang most likely used the "Mansion Technique" in her own room.
Thinking of what Tonks had just said, Levin couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle. He never expected to be teased like that by her.
Cai Wen attempted to contact Zhang Qiu using the intellectual imprint technique.
Although I could sense that the other person was nearby, I received no response.
It seems she's still shy.
So Levin woke up the fast-sleeping Aiwu and asked her to help deliver a handwritten letter.
After a while, Aiwu brought back Zhang Qiu's reply, along with a sock that had been "cleaned up".
Levin's socks that Zhang Qiu mistakenly put on him.
At night, Levin tossed and turned in bed, the scene in Zhang Qiu's room where 20,000 words had been cut replaying in his mind over and over again.
He had to go to the bathroom again before he could calm down and fall asleep.
The days that followed remained hectic and busy with writing and studying.
But whenever the two were together, their entangled gazes always held an unyielding, deep affection.
Chapter 249 "A Broad Interpretation of Modern True Qi Massage"
Levin has been in high spirits these past few days, thanks to some good news.
He wasn't the only one who happened to have a happy event.
In the new class on the protection of magical creatures, he noticed that Hagrid had been looking at him with a strange expression since the beginning of the lesson.
Even a powerful wizard like Levin felt a chill run down his spine when stared at by the half-giant's burning gaze.
Fortunately, once the course officially started, the other party finally had no time to pay attention to him.
But just as Levin finished his class assignment and was calming a Motra mouse, a shadow suddenly fell on him.
Levin looked up and saw Hagrid; his eyes were wet and blurry.
Hagrid wiped the sweat from his face with a handkerchief the size of a tablecloth, smiled at him, and said, "Great news, Levin! Guess what?"
Although Levin guessed the truth as soon as he saw Hagrid's appearance, he still pretended to be curious and asked, "What's wrong?"
"We won Buckbeak's case! Although it can no longer live at Hogwarts, it's free! I celebrated all night!" Hagrid's face was flushed with excitement.
"That would be great!"
Although he already knew the outcome, Levin couldn't help but laugh for the other person.
“Congratulations! Levin, it’s all thanks to you. The lawyer Ms. Jaina found for me is truly amazing. Whenever I’m stumped by a question and don’t know what to say, he always finds a way to get me out of the predicament.” Hagrid sincerely thanked Levin.
“It’s nothing, Hermione Granger also deserves credit,” Levin reminded her.
"Of course, and Hermione too! You two are both wonderful! Not only are you good at your studies, but you're also great friends!" Hagrid looked like he was about to cry again.
"But Hagrid, have you figured out how to settle Buckbeak?" Levin suddenly asked.
“No, I asked a lot of people, but they all think Buckbeak is too big and too fierce, and they are not willing to accept it.” Hagrid stopped smiling and looked a little worried.
Levin didn't know whether he should be happy for Hagrid.
This half-giant finally came to a clear understanding of how Buckbeak was perceived by others.
“If you trust me, Hagrid, I’ll take good care of him. I’m capable of it, but you’ll have to find him a companion first,” Levin suggested after a moment’s thought.
He was extensively collecting various magical creatures in the forests of the demiplane.
However, not all magical creatures can be bought on the market.
This is a good opportunity to replenish the eagle population.
It can also solve Hagrid's problems, killing two birds with one stone.
Hagrid agreed without hesitation: "That's great, Levin, you can bring Buckbeak's partner along... Oh, I really don't know how to thank you!"
He felt that if Levin could continue to raise Buckbeak, he could not only ensure Buckbeak's well-being, but also perhaps have the opportunity to see Buckbeak again in the future, which would be perfect.
Judging from his excited expression, he seemed ready to rush forward and embrace Levin, bursting into tears.
Levin quickly made an excuse to visit Buckbeak and kept his distance.
He had never drunk a power potion before. Given his physical condition, it was astonishing that such a burly man with giant blood was forcing him to lean on his shoulder and cry...
That feeling... just thinking about it doesn't sound good.
Levin found Buckbeak in the pumpkin patch behind Hagrid's hut.
It seemed to know it had regained its freedom, fluttering its wings from time to time, looking quite at ease.
Levin scaled the fence and jumped into the pumpkin patch to get close to Buckbeak.
He reached out towards those fierce orange eyes.
Sensing Levin's presence, Buckbeak suddenly knelt down on his scaled knees, bowed to Levin, and then stood up again.
Levin stroked its wings, and Buckbeak tilted its head and nuzzled Levin's shoulder.
Levin gently patted its beak again, causing it to bend its knees and lower its body.
Levin lightly leaped onto its body, pulled Buckbeak's rope end over and tied it to the other side of its collar to use as a rein, then nudged Buckbeak's belly with his heel.
Buckbeak obeyed the order keenly and rose straight into the night sky.
Levin gripped its flanks with his knees and felt the pair of enormous wings flapping powerfully beneath him.
They flew silently to the upper levels of the castle, and Levin pulled hard on the reins, urging Buckbeak to fly towards the Forbidden Forest and into its colony.
There, following Hagrid's instructions, Levin found Buckbeak's partner.
It was a pure white eagle. After seeing Buckbeak land, it happily trotted out from the flock of eagles and affectionately cuddled and comforted Buckbeak.
It seems they haven't seen each other for quite some time.
Levin suddenly felt like he had become a third wheel.
After they had finally finished expressing their longing, Levin patted Buckbeak, then patted the white eagle, and said:
