Chapter 251: A Funny New Script
"I think we can change the script, and what happened a while ago reminds me of an adventure I had in the past, and it was an epic adventure as well."
In the Great Hall of Hogwarts, Lockhart spoke with William next to him.
He didn't care at all about William's increasingly gloomy face, and sat down next to William very familiarly.
"You know, right, I had this kind of thing when I was on an adventure in Burkina Faso, and I remember writing about it in 'I Can Magic'."
If memory serves, that's not what you said in the office, Lockhart!
If memory serves, you're not talking about the same place twice.
Listening to Lockhart's inconsequential words, William rolled his eyes helplessly.
"I'm going to adapt the real events I encountered into a script, and in the new script, you'll play as an evil undisguised dark wizard whose favorite thing to do is to use evil black magic to turn those good humans or wizards into stone statues.
In this way, you have ruled the village with this evil power. ”
???
Isn't it, I'm so good, instead of learning from Voldemort to establish a new regime, I'm going to be a little village chief?
"And I, Gilderoy Lockhart, the five-time winner of the Wizarding Weekly Award for the Most Charming Smile, came to this village by accident, as it is written in the book."
Lockhart excitedly hugged William, his voice was not small, and it could be clearly transmitted to several long tables nearby.
When you face the basilisk, I hope your charming smile can do a little bit of a good job, William frantically complained to Lockhart in front of him.
"Sensing your evil moves, I stood up without hesitation, defeated you with my excellent spell-casting skills, and saved the village. William, what do you think of this script? ”
I think this script would be much more reasonable if it were reversed.
"If only the story could be a little more realistic." William's words sounded like something else, but Lockhart didn't care at all about William's resistance.
"Real? It's true, of course. Otherwise, how could I have written it in my own autobiography? Lockhart gave William a big smile.
Forget it, what do you say, anyway, according to the plot, you will have less than a year of happy time left.
"You can do whatever you say, is there anything else? I'm a little tired and want to go back and rest early. ”
After a few moments, William had noticed several glances on his side, unlike Lockhart, who liked to be famous and vain.
William didn't like to be seen like a monkey.
"So you said yes? That's great, and I can't wait to see the two of us perform on the same stage.
In the next Defense Against the Dark Arts class, let's recreate that scene together! ”
With these words, Lockhart turned around and left satisfied.
"What do you think that you would agree to Lockhart and go with him in that ridiculous classroom play?" After Lockhart left, Terry next to him asked William with some confusion.
"Merlin wants to play that hilarious script with him! I'm also forced to be helpless, okay!
That time, Lohartra went to his office to ink for an afternoon, and I couldn't get rid of it before I agreed. William grumbled fiercely at Terry.
Of course, he wouldn't talk to Terry about his deal with Lockhart, it was a secret that couldn't be told. William has received a professor's approval, which is a valuable key to open the door to the forbidden book section.
He even felt that if Lockhart could hand over the approval to himself so easily, it would not be impossible for him to play a clown to accompany Lockhart and satisfy the latter's vanity.
He now feels that maintaining a good relationship with Lockhart will be beneficial to him.
After all, William hasn't gotten his exclusive Guide to Unleashing the Oblivion Spell from Lockhart, and Lockhart has been able to use the Oblivion Charm to clear the memories of so many skilled wizards, and his Oblivion Charm is definitely unique.
Perhaps, he may still be of great use in the future plot.
"But that's a good thing, at least it can add a lot of points to our academy, right?" Hearing William's words, Terry's eyes were full of sympathy, and he felt that William was too miserable.
"yes, it's not a big deal for me to play a clown for the sake of the academy."
The two of them looked together at the Headmaster's Golden Chair at Hogwarts, behind which were four large hourglasses, each filled with gems of different colors of red, yellow, blue, and green, which symbolized the scores of each house.
(In the original book, the location of the hourglass is outside the auditorium, but in the movie, the position of the hourglass is placed behind the teacher's seat, and the author uses the setting in the movie here, because the author feels that placing the hourglass in the auditorium can allow students from different colleges to pay more attention to their own college scores.) )
Among them, Ravenclaw was far ahead in the number of blue gems, and during these two months of study, Lockhart added a lot of points to his former house.
In fact, as long as you figure out the books he wrote, the hellish questions Lockhart asks aren't hard to answer.
The eaglets who like to read quickly figured out the rules of Lockhart's questions in class, who doesn't want a score for nothing?
Every time they took a Defence Against the Dark Arts class, the eaglets were always very active in answering questions, which greatly satisfied Lockhart's vanity.
He thought he wanted to be welcomed by the students, but in fact it was just an illusion.
Lockhart, of course, didn't know what the eaglets were really thinking about answering the questions, they were just trying to complete the weekly scoring target.
What Lockhart didn't know was that his reputation at Ravenclaw College was about to stink.
Thanks to a Ravenclaw prefect who is full of resentment towards Lockhart and does not want to be named, her suspicion of Lockhart makes the eaglets the first students to start suspecting Lockhart.
They began to wonder if Lockhart was as good as he wrote in his book, but the eaglets thought that Lockhart was exaggerated, and they had not yet doubted the authenticity of his work.
Because Lockhart's performance was so inferior, they really couldn't gain any useful knowledge in Lockhart's class.
Even Professor Quirrell, who was possessed by Voldemort last semester, was responsible for teaching the students something real.
And Lockhart, he's so good at water!
