"Knock! knock!"

Dudley and the others came to Hagrid's hut and knocked softly on the door.

"I said, I don't need you to teach me......" Hagrid slammed the door open, and a puff of dust fell.

Hagrid had an angry face, but when he saw that it was them outside the door, he immediately smiled.

"I've been wondering when you're going to come and see me! Come in, come in, I thought Professor Lockhart was back again. ”

Dudley and the others stepped over the threshold and into the hut, where the fire in the fireplace was crackling.

The Great Hound Tooth pounced on Dudley, and if he hadn't pushed it away so quickly, Toothtooth's tongue would have licked into his face.

"We just ran into Lockhart," Harry hated Lockhart, disgusted but unaware, "what is he doing here?"

Hagrid was angry at the mention of this, "He came to teach me how to prevent the water demon from getting into the well, as if I didn't know." He also boasted about how to get rid of the female ghosts, and if any of his words were true, I would have eaten the teapot. ”

Hagrid poured them tea and placed the teapot heavily on the table.

Harry looked at Hagrid in surprise, knowing that Hagrid would never criticize Hogwarts professors, just like last year, no matter what Harry said or said about Snape, Hagrid never criticized.

"I don't know why Professor Dumbledore would make him a professor. Harry grumbled that whoever met Lockhart would ruin the good mood of the day.

"He's the only one. Hagrid brought them a plate of syrup toffee.

Dudley was a little curious that Hagrid hadn't served the crust pie, but he wouldn't be bored to ask, it was a pie that knocked teeth out.

"The only candidate?" asked Hermione, puzzled, "Is it because the others are not suitable?"

"You're wrong," Dudley said slowly after taking a sip of his hot tea from his teacup, "The only thing I mean is that Lockhart is alone, and it's very difficult to find a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor right now. Professor Dumbledore was also forced to do nothing, he kept dragging his feet to prevent Lockhart from announcing his professorship, but in the end he really couldn't find anyone else......"

Dudley looked at them with a puzzled look on his face and asked, "Eh, didn't I tell you about the Defence Against the Dark Arts class that Voldemort cursed?"

"Bang Dang~"

Hagrid's teacup fell directly onto the table, and the tea dripped down the table.

"Oh my God, Dudley, don't say that. He said with a shudder.

Dudley looked at Hagrid helplessly, what was there to fear from a broken soul, Voldemort had not yet been resurrected, no matter how he called his name, he would not have a sense.

He spread his hands, indicating that the man's name would not be mentioned later.

Harry, it was the first time they had heard of a curse in Defence Against the Dark Arts, and they looked at Dudley curiously, waiting for an answer.

"There was a very talented wizard at Hogwarts who chose to travel after graduating, and he returned to Hogwarts a year later. He applied for the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, but was rejected by Professor Dumbledore. As a result, from then on, any teacher who teaches the subject will only be able to teach for a maximum of one year. ”

They sighed, they didn't expect Voldemort to have such a thing back then.

Dudley guessed that the reason why Voldemort came back was to hide the Horcrux, which he had already hidden, and as for why he had to put a curse on the Defence Against the Dark Arts class, it was probably because of his distorted mind.

It's probably one kind of thing that I can't get, and others can't think of it.

Dudley looked at their faces and thought that this kind of disclosure was quite interesting, and it was a bit of a pity that some things could not be said too soon.

He thought for a moment and said, "I'll tell you one more thing, in fact, the things in Lockhart wrote are real......"

Harry looked at Dudley in shock, and was amazed, could it be that Lockhart was really good, but it didn't look like it during this time.

Dudley smiled suspiciously, "The story is true, but the protagonist in the story is not him, he asked the people involved to understand the detailed process, and then erased their memories." ”

"Oh my God!" Hermione's eyes widened as she covered her mouth with her hands.

Lockhart is also terrifying, and his actions can be counted as dark wizards.

"And does Professor Dumbledore know?" asked Harry.

Dudley raised an eyebrow and didn't speak, Dumbledore must have known......

Something unpleasant was discussed, and the atmosphere in the room was somewhat silent.

Then.

Hagrid seemed to remember something, "Harry, I'm going to have to settle accounts with you. I heard you send autographed photos, why don't you have mine?"

Harry was furious, and opened his mouth as hard as the toffee had been shut.

"I never wanted to send an autograph," he said emotionally, "is Lockhart still spreading this rumor?"

He wanted to continue, but saw Hagrid laugh.

"Haha! I think the atmosphere is a little gloomy, just kidding you," he kindly patted Harry on the back, causing Harry's face to slam on the table, "I know you won't send autographed photos." I've told Lockhart very well that you don't have to do that, because you don't have to bother to be more famous than Lockhart. ”

Dudley nodded, Hagrid was telling the truth, the name of the savior was bigger than the name of writing a few books.

If Harry hadn't been a baby, he would have been even more famous than Dumbledore.

Harry seemed to be quite impressed by this, he sat up straight, touched his chin and said, "I can assure you that Lockhart was absolutely upset to hear this. ”

"I don't think so," Hagrid's eyes glistened, "and then I said I had never read his books, and he decided to take his leave." ”

"That's great, Hagrid!" Harry said happily.

As long as Lockhart is unhappy, Harry will be happy.

Within this year, Lockhart should have a higher place in Harry's heart than Malfoy, and Professor Snape could be third.

"By the way, do you want to see what I've grown?" Hagrid asked.

The group nodded in agreement, curious to see what Hagrid would be planting here.

They came to the vegetable patch behind the hut.

There were twelve large pumpkins, each half a man tall.

"Doesn't it look good?" said Hagrid, "these are going to be used at Halloween feasts, and the pumpkins will be big enough by then." ”

Dudley swallowed, this is beyond the standard of not bad, this pumpkin is afraid that he also has half-giant blood, right?

Speaking of the Halloween party, he remembered that he missed the party last year because he was with Hermione, and he probably won't miss it again this year.
