NOVEL NEXT Chapter 101: All Are Black
When Irina entered the abandoned classroom, she saw Lynn sitting at the desk inside.
Irina looked into Lynn's dark red eyes. At first, she didn't know what to say, but unexpectedly blurted out, "Hey!"
Hearing this, Lynn was momentarily stunned, then instinctively replied, "What are you doing?!"
Immediately afterward, both of them stood up at the same time and pointed at each other in unison: "Little Heizi!"
The two were stunned again, perfectly in sync, and then burst into laughter.
Irina held her stomach with both hands, about to cry from laughing. She hadn't expected to come to such a strange new world and still hear familiar phrases. This feeling reminded her of sitting in front of her computer, laughing at the hilarious comments of internet users.
The same was true for Lynn. After arriving in this unfamiliar world, he had suppressed his emotions as much as possible, maintaining the composure of a professional assassin when facing the dangers of this new reality.
But deep down, he was still a passionate young man. Otherwise, he wouldn't have died in a sea of flames trying to save others.
Facing Irina, a girl who was also a reincarnator from another world, Lynn unexpectedly regained the familiar warmth of his past life.
Perhaps only those from the same place can provide comfort while wandering in the unknown.
Both Lynn and Irina deeply valued and appreciated the presence of someone from their homeland.
Otherwise, Lynn wouldn't have deviated from the original storyline to take the risk of defeating the troll last Halloween out of concern for Irina's safety. And Irina wouldn't have taken the chance of exposing her identity just to open the alchemy box, placing her hope in this one chance.
"Let me reintroduce myself. My name is Lynn. In my previous life, I was also called Lynn. I come from Rongcheng. I reincarnated after trying to save people during a fire but was accidentally trapped and perished in the flames."
Lynn extended his hand to Irina as he spoke.
"I'd like to reintroduce myself as well. My name is Irina. In my previous life, I was called Ina, from Lancheng. I reincarnated after trying to rescue protected animals from poachers but accidentally got locked in cold storage and froze to death."
Irina firmly grasped Lynn's hand, as if holding onto the last drop of hope, and softly said,
"Nice to meet you here!"
At the same time, they both spoke in unison: "Nice to meet you here!"
Afterward, both Lynn and Irina seemed to let go of a heavy burden. They casually sat on the desks and chairs in the abandoned classroom and chatted like old friends who had known each other for years.
"Just like they said online in our past lives, I always pay attention to Little Heizi!" Irina toyed with the crystal pendant on her chest and joked cheerfully.
Lynn shrugged and smirked. "Who doesn't? Guan Jihei!"
"Who would've thought? It's crazy how similar we are!"
"Hahaha…"
No one knew what Lynn and Irina talked about in that abandoned classroom, but those who knew them noticed a peculiar change afterward—both became much livelier.
...
"Tell me, Lynn, weren't you always sulking like Snape before? What's gotten into you today?"
Seeing Lynn walk into the dormitory with a smile, Malfoy blurted out his question.
Hearing Malfoy's words, Lynn's expression suddenly changed.
"You're comparing me to Snape?!"
"Draco, I think it's time you felt some loving care from your elders!" Lynn said, pulling out his wand.
For some reason, Malfoy felt that Lynn's smile suddenly became sinister.
As for the two lackeys, Goyle and Crabbe, who usually just ate, they immediately slipped out of the dormitory upon seeing Lynn draw his wand.
Not long after, Goyle and Crabbe heard constant shouts coming from the dormitory.
On the other side, Irina returned to the Gryffindor common room, humming a tune.
"You're back, Irina? You look happy!" Hermione greeted her.
Hearing Hermione's words, Irina nodded cheerfully and said, "Yes, I made a new friend!"
Thinking of what had happened earlier, Hermione smiled and asked, "Was it Senior Lynn?"
"That's right! I just realized we actually played together as kids at an amusement park. No wonder he was so kind to me last year!" Irina fabricated a story to hide the truth.
Hermione nodded without pressing further.
Time flew, and October arrived.
During this period, Draco Malfoy donated a set of Nimbus 2001 broomsticks to the Slytherin Quidditch team through his father, Lucius Malfoy, and joined the team as their new Seeker.
Of course, intent on showing off in front of Harry, Malfoy led the Slytherin team to provoke him immediately after joining. Hermione eventually ridiculed Malfoy, saying he only got into the team through his father's money.
With Irina by her side, Malfoy dared not use the term "Mudblood" to insult Hermione again. So he stuck to sarcastic comments about Harry before swaggering off with his team.
Thanks to a note from Professor Snape, the Gryffindor Quidditch team was left feeling aggrieved but powerless to do anything.
Meanwhile, Ron complained that his broken wand was useless, but Irina seized an opportunity to quietly suggest he sell Lockhart's books to buy a new wand.
October rolled in, bringing damp, cold air that permeated the castle. This led to a wave of colds among students and staff, puzzling Madam Pomfrey at the hospital wing enough to seek help from Professor Snape.
Although Snape wasn't skilled in healing magic, the Revitalizing Potion he brewed worked wonders, albeit tasting unbearably bitter. Moreover, those who drank it found steam puffing out of their ears like a train for hours afterward. Lockhart, who caught a cold after being frozen during the initial icy spell, reluctantly drank it too.
In this damp and dreary atmosphere, the warmest place in Hogwarts Castle was the common rooms. Even Lynn temporarily abandoned his "scroll king" persona to relax by the fire in the Slytherin common room.
With his high affinity for fire magic, the dark, damp weather outside the castle made him uncomfortable, but the warmth of the common room made up for it.
