Chapter 107: Pit Lockhart

Dudley was stunned for a moment, and Lockhart would know that he was understandable, and his picture was in the newspaper when "Frozen" was first released.

It's all the same, but Lockhart is 'copying' other people's memories, so it makes sense to pay attention to the competitors.

Lockhart is also very powerful, if another person knew these memories, he might not be able to write these books.

The crowd got out of the way. The people around him whispered excitedly.

Lockhart stepped forward and shook Dudley's hand, a honeyed smile on his face, "Mr. Dursley, I've read your book too, it's really good, it looks like I can communicate more in the future." ”

"Oh, maybe we'll have a year to talk to. Dudley laughed inwardly, and talked more, and when the conversation was understood, he would erase his memory?

I'm afraid Lockhart is thinking a little too much.

A year is just maybe, just looking at Lockhart's performance, I knew that it was really easy to get rid of a person who knew black material.

Lockhart didn't know how to answer.

A year?

He joined Hogwarts as a professor, and the matter had not yet been announced, so why would Dudley say such a thing for a year.

However, since this has been said, it cannot end without a problem.

"Mr. Dursley is really well informed. Lockhart flashed his trademark eight-toothed grin, "Guys, give it a bit!"

The crowd fell silent and looked at him.

He waved his arms, quite a leader, "Here... On this special occasion, I would like to announce something that makes me immensely happy and proud... This September, I will be a Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. ”

The crowd around them shouted in amazement, and they clapped and cheered.

Lockhart grabbed Dudley and Harry's arms and pulled them forward.

The audience erupted in applause and cheers again.

Lockhart held Dudley's and Harry's hands and asked the photographer to take pictures.

The short man frantically pressed the shutter, and puffs of smoke drifted onto the Weasleys.

"Come on, smile nicely. Lockhart repeatedly showed off his shiny teeth, and he whispered, "The three of us are really good enough to be on the front page." ”

Dudley smiled, he hadn't been on the front page, although it was hacked, he still remembered the article that the woman named Rita Skeeter had posted - "Shocked! The Story Dumbledore and Dursley Had to Tell".

Dudley, who was so angry, almost vomited three liters of blood, and a certain C shock department was afraid that he would invite this woman to be the editor-in-chief.

But thanks to this article, he lit a fire for his book.

As long as he can make money, he doesn't care if this is hacking him or not.

Otherwise, he would definitely have to go to Skeeter's trouble and let this woman try the consequences of slander.

If Dudley really wants to kill people, he will use his mutated flame to sneak attack, except for some very powerful bigwigs, absolutely invincible.

"Ladies and gentlemen. Lockhart shouted, waving everyone to silence, "What an extraordinary time! Our savior, Mr. Harry Potter, and the famous author, Mr. Dudley Dursley, walked into the bookstore to buy my autobiography. ”

He raised his arms and shouted, "Now I declare: I am willing to give them this copy of my 'I Can Magic'. ”

Dudley coughed a few times, and he said, "Mr. Lockhart, Harry and I actually like your complete set of books, and I wonder if you can give us a complete set on this solemn occasion." ”

Lockhart's smile froze, and he thought to himself.

"Absolutely. ”

It's too expensive to give away two sets of books at once, he is a professor mainly for fame and selling books, and his heart is bleeding when he loses the profits of two sets of books.

The corners of Dudley's mouth lifted slightly, and he wanted to see how long Lockhart could pretend, and secretly gave Harry a look.

Harry raised an eyebrow at Dudley, then looked at Lockhart and said, "Mr. Lockhart... No, I guess it's Professor Lockhart. Professor, it's not just the two of us who like your books, but also my friends, but yours are book lovers almost enough to read your books to fall asleep. ”

"Really?" Lockhart laughed, "that's my pleasure." ”

"Of course. Harry suddenly took Lockhart's hand and looked at him with tears in his eyes, "They love your books so much, I wonder if the professor will be able to send six more books." "He is like an actor possessed at the moment.

Dudley laughed inwardly, still serious on the surface, and he tilted his ear to the side, as if he had heard someone's heartbreak.

"Professor... You see......"

There was some silence, and Lockhart had to laugh awkwardly, stalling for time to find a way to refuse the matter.

At that moment, Dudley grabbed Lockhart's other hand and thanked him, "Thank you, Professor Lockhart, for the book." Harry, thank you Professor. ”

He smiled flatteringly at the crowd, "Everyone, help me thank this generous Professor Lockhart. ”

The crowd exploded, and all kinds of praise came out one after another.

Dudley squinted at Lockhart, who was receiving the praise, and he guessed right, Lockhart would definitely not refuse on such an occasion for the sake of his own personality. The plan was successful, and although the money in the pit was not much, the full set of books was at least about a thousand gold galleons.

Lockhart's heart was broken into pieces at the moment, and these compliments were no longer fragrant.

Dudley hurriedly beckoned his friends to come up and get the book, no matter what, the book was in hand first, otherwise Lockhart would have no place to say anything about it afterwards.

Molly asks for all eight sets of books, and she wants Lockhart to sign each one.

They are out of the public eye, out of the crowd.

Harry bumped Dudley on the shoulder and laughed, "You're too bad, aren't you?" ”

"Each other, each other. Dudley tilted his head proudly.

"I don't think you should do that. Hermione interrupted the crowd abruptly.

Dudley stepped forward and flicked it on Hermione's forehead, "Give you a chance to reorganize the language." ”

Ron glared at Hermione and stood beside Dudley, "How nice it is, Dudley and Harry have saved our family a lot of money instead of wasting money on such useless books, and we're using new books this year." ”

Hermione tried to retort, but a mean voice came.

"I think you're going to love that, right? Malfoy slowly descended the stairs beside him.

"Famous Harry Potter," Malfoy said with disgust but jealousy, "even entering a bookstore is going to be front-page news." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, he doesn't really want that!" Ginny glared at Malfoy.

It was the first time she had spoken in front of Harry.

"Potter, you've got a girlfriend!" Malfoy said in a long, along, abysmal voice.

Ginny's face flushed instantly.
