Chapter 61: Interlude and End

"Did you have a bug in your head before?" was Malfoy listening to Lockhart's speech with a pretending to be attentive when a somewhat erratic voice reached his ears. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Miss Luna, I think we should respect the hero who eliminated the basilisk for us, and he is now speaking from the podium, which is basic courtesy. Malfoy looked back and saw that the owner of the voice was Luna, a mad girl in everyone's mouths, and her voice was still ethereal and a little erratic, but it had to be said that it was still very good, and it could make people unconsciously let their guard down.

None of the people around seemed to notice that a Ravenclaw student had arrived on the Slytherin chassis.

"Hmm.." Luna glanced at Lockhart, who was gushing on the stage, looked at Malfoy a few more times, and then pouted and said, "I think he's the one who has been taken over by the harassing fly." ”

Malfoy no longer knew what expression to use to face this girl with amazing instincts.

"Luna, why did you get here? "An older schoolgirl rushed to the two of them in some haste, with her long brown curls and delicate features, and of course the most attractive aspect of her temperament, intellectual and elegant, which was the prefect of Ravenclaw, Penelo Crivat.

She pulled Luna by the way, keeping her distance from Malfoy, then shielded her behind her before apologizing softly, "I'm sorry Luna disturbed you, I'm going to take her where she should be, and I hope you don't care about her mistakes." ”

Then he quickly dragged the reluctant Luna away, and Penelope felt that he had the responsibility and obligation to care for his schoolgirl.

"He's not having a bug in his head, he's a good guy. Luna was a little annoyed, muttering to herself, thinking that if she had a few more words with Malfoy, she might have found something more useful.

Penelope could only hold his forehead with one hand and shake his head, looking at Luna with some pity.

To be honest, she couldn't understand why the Sorting Hat had assigned this girl to Ravenclaw, considering that Ravenclaw House was a symbol of erudition and wisdom, and the girl in front of her really didn't have the slightest connection to it.

Even though she was a little used to Luna's off-line behavior, she still couldn't let her schoolgirl stand so close to such a dangerous person, even if he wasn't very old.

"It's not as good as his two younger brothers. Penelope seemed to have thought of something, and the red glow spread from the corners of her ears to her face. A lady in love will always unconsciously associate anything with her object.

"Why is your face red?" Luna asked.

"Yes. Penelope hurriedly touched his face with his hand and quickly put it down. Then he said to Luna with a serious face: "Don't change the subject with me, stay away from that person in the future, God knows what strange creatures he will make next time, if you leave a deep impression on him, maybe you will be the first to suffer next time." ”

"But if you're telling the truth, it's too late. ”

"What does that mean?" Penelope had a bad premonition in her heart.

"I sat with him on the train at the beginning of this year, and he taught me a lot of fun games. Luna fiddled with her turnip earrings and said nonchalantly.

"What?"

Penelope felt that it was time for him to change his heart, because the one that was running could burst at any time because of the little girl in front of him.

"Anyway, stay away from him in the future, or I'll deduct my own academy score even if I'm the prefect of Ravenclaw. Penelope tried to calm herself down, but the bomb just now made her lose the ability to think for a short time, so she had the following counterattack.

"Prefects don't have the right to deduct points. Luna stared at Penelope and said, she always hit the nail on the head.

At this time, it was the turn of the prefect to be speechless.

But at this moment, a burst of fierce applause ended the awkward atmosphere between the two.

Not far away, Lockhart's unique and charismatic voice was heard: "I will always remember this experience at Hogwarts, and the experience of becoming a teacher will be a significant part of my life, and it will be an inexhaustible treasure in my life." ”

"It's finally coming to an end. Malfoy sighed with relief, for he hated the long, smelly, and unnutritious group meetings, and for him Lockhart's speeches were uninfectious.

Of course, he should be the only one who is not interested and scoffs. The other students listened with relish, and looked at the stage intently, for fear of missing a detail.

Just as Malfoy was about to get up and pretend to applaud the departure of the impostor hero, the few paragraphs that were enough to conclude his speech began to stretch again.

"I know you'd like to know more about my time at Hogwarts, and the more detailed process of my battle against the basilisk, but I'm short on time today, so I've included these experiences in my latest book!" After speaking, he took out a brand new book from his arms as if by magic, and Malfoy sat down in the audience and vaguely saw Lockhart on the cover teaching a lecture on the podium, and then showed his perfect smile to the camera, and seemed to have done the special magic treatment above, so that the cover was faintly bright, very eye-catching.

Lockhart cleared his throat and continued: "The title of the book is 'Lockhart: Those Days of Teaching at Hogwarts), in fact, the book has not yet been published, but I know that everyone must be very enthusiastic about it, so as the author, I used a little privilege to get a few samples in advance to give to everyone, and now everyone who gets the book can not only know more details and secrets in advance, but also get my autograph on the title page of the book." ”

"I really regret saving you now, Professor Straw Bag. Malfoy reluctantly sat back in his seat, silently enduring the pitch meeting for an unknown amount of time.

"First of all, Miss Hermione should be my first reader of this book, because she managed to get my attention to the basilisk during the battle, and I had a chance to cast the spell. Lockhart said to himself, and then naturally pulled Hermione in front of him to be baptized by everyone's eyes.

Hermione only felt uncomfortable, the last time she received the commendation, she still had a few peers as companions, and now she was really alone, and this time she only felt a mess in her heart, the headmaster's previous words with some hints and reminders, her own feelings, and her unexplained disgust for Lockhart all made her feel embarrassed on stage.

But she could only smile at everyone and Lockhart, showing her happy side.

Then she heard an undetectable cough on stage.

She was sure that Lockhart should have heard it too, as he suddenly shuddered, and Hermione stole a few glances to see that Lockhart's eyes were now on Professor Dumbledore.

Dumbledore still had a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened.

There is an ancient Oriental proverb called "There is no banquet in the world", and Lockhart changed his words again and began to say goodbye in earnest.

There was a hint of awe in gratitude, which should be Lockhart's current state of mind towards Dumbledore.

A cough was enough for him to understand.

With Dumbledore in control of all his black material, Lockhart would not believe that this old man with a constant smile on his face would be as simple as it seemed.

Take it when you see it, Lockhart examines himself, only to realize that he seems to be a little carried away.

"Don't be disappointed if you don't get my autographed book, you'll soon see it in the most prominent place at the Blotted Book, and for now, I think I'd give it back to Professor Dumbledore so that he can bring the semester to a close. ”

"Ahem. Dumbledore coughed lightly and picked up.

Malfoy had thought that Dumbledore would be done with a few more polite words.

He proved to be naΓ―ve, Professor Dumbledore collected all the various howl letters, but did not destroy them, and it just so happened that this opportunity was used up at once, and he knew why the Weasley brothers had compromised before.

The ensuing auditorium seemed to be thrown into a depth charge, and the roars of various animals were unbearable, and those who didn't know thought it was a Muggle zoo animal escaped.

And Dumbledore's explanation was: "I hope these shouting letters will never be used again, and today will be regarded as a farewell performance." ”

Malfoy could only roll his eyes at this "childlike" old man.

Soon, after enduring this round of ear torture, the ceremony finally ended, and the students boarded the Hogwarts Express and returned to their homes for a pleasant, or exciting, holiday?
