At this moment, Brandy's dormitory was full of chickens and dogs.

"Did any of you see my dark purple sweater?" Ron hurriedly rummaged through his large suitcase, throwing books and socks everywhere. "It's the one my mom knitted for me last year, and I think it would be a better fit for our wizarding robes...... Well, it's a shame, embarrassed to look at the camera in Bill's old robe, and lo and behold, the cuffs are almost worn out! ”

"Don't be stupid, if you don't mind, you can wear the wizard's robe in my box." Brandi said nonchalantly, gesturing back and forth with something in his hand. "That one seems to be a little short and left it there unworn, but your words are just right, just take the pile of clothes on it, you can take it yourself."

"Oh, that's a thank you." Ron cheered and rummaged through Brandi's suitcase.

After listening to Ron's words, Harry silently tucked back the gray sweater in his hand and pulled out a purple striped tie. He looked in the mirror and gestured with his tie on his chest, and couldn't help but show a loveless expression.

"It's the first time I've struggled with what to wear for dinner. I mean, why are we taking it so seriously? ”

"Seriously? Brother Bear! Ron looked back in amazement, looking at Harry's blank face. This is an interview with the Daily Prophet, the most influential newspaper in the British wizarding world! Think of it, the next morning, thousands of newspapers with your photographs and deeds will be spread all over England by messengers! You don't want to be in a hurry when everyone is eating breakfast and flipping through the newspaper and finding you wearing a tie in a panic. ”

"Don't listen to him, Ron is just stinky." Brandi looked up and said disdainfully.

"Shut up, put down the comb in your hand and speak!"

“……………… Shh Brandy, who was already dressed as a dog, turned around and began to try to keep his hedgehog head down.

"Hairstyle OK, shoes OK, wand maintenance OK... Brand new robe OK... Something missing. Ron scrambled his robe out of Brandi's box.

He suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"Huh? What's in your socks? Curiously, he reached out and grabbed a bulging sock from it and pinched it a few times. Stone? ”

"It's the key...... Brandy's attention was still on the mirror opposite, "I took it from Professor Quirrell in my first year, and I went to the Treasury with Professor Dumbledore last time to see it." If nothing else, this thing is the key to the Fifth Seal. ”

"Huh? So......" Ron took the pendant out and looked up and down, but was embarrassed to find that there was nothing strange about the gem except for a crack, so he stuffed it back into his sock and threw it into the box.

"Squeak~~"

And at this moment, the familiar cry of a small animal came from his feet.

"Spotted? What are you doing here? Ron bent down suspiciously, grabbing Spotted in his hand, in his memory, Spotted would rarely take the initiative to run to him and make out with him, why did he suddenly change sex this time?

"Let me guess, you're trying to ......" Following Browny's gaze, Ron's eyes glanced at Brandi's box.

Spotted nodded his head up and down eagerly, flicking his tail impatiently.

Half a day.

"Oh! I know! You must want to go with me for an interview, right? Ron slapped his thigh and said with a grin.

？？？

Spotted's body shuddered, and his little head turned to Ron, a look of shock in his eyes.

"Speaking of which, except for the family photo of our family, the two of us don't seem to have taken a photo separately. So if that'......"

Ron said this, then slipped it into his jacket pocket, despite Blob's fierce struggle.

"Well, since you're looking forward to it so much, then this time I will also let you experience the feeling of a famous mouse~"

"Ron? Hurry, we've got to go! ”

Harry and Brandi's voices came from the doorway just in time.

"Right now!"

Snapping Brandi's suitcase in hand, Ron turned around and left the bedroom with the two of them.

………………

"Huh? So this is the so-called exclusive interview of the "Prophet Daily", Luo, Ha, Te, Teaching, Teaching? ”

An hour later, Brandy, who was trapped by Lockhart, looked at the camera in front of him with a blank face, and jumped out word by word from inside his teeth. Harry and Ron were on the other side, feeling the thunderous cheers from the audience and the playful gaze of a professor in the faculty seat, and the expressions of the three of them were now the same as they were at the funeral.

"Of course, this is an exclusive interview with my friend~" Lockhart said cheerfully, adjusting his posture from time to time so that his smile could be more perfectly reflected in the camera. Just a few minutes ago, he had just completed an excellent "exclusive interview" with three human flesh backgrounds and a group of rabid fans. "Thanks to the three of you, The Days of Drilling the Water with the Basilisk broke my previous record for selling a single biography! I've been thinking about how to thank you. And then it occurred to me yesterday at Hogsmeade for book signings, what could be more wonderful than sharing this joy with you? ”

Brandi let out a groan of despair.

Well, such a swaggering thank you gift is really in line with Lockhart's character......

But I understand the reason, why are you dressing yourself up like a basilisk and taking pictures with us!! And what does it mean that this tail wraps around me so tightly, am I an unlucky bastard in your book who almost got swallowed by a basilisk?

"By the way, Dumbledore just asked me to tell you that Room Thirteen has what you'll need for a while."

"What's that?" Brandi was about to ask a question, but Professor Lockhart turned his head away, concentrating on the lens of his camera.

"Don't get distracted and keep your eyes on the camera. Yes! Mr. Barton, smile~ open your mouth, do you know what a smile is? Mediterranean photographers held up cameras and jumped up and down around them excitedly.

The corners of Brandi's mouth twitched violently.

…… GodTM is going to die, and he can still laugh!

“1，2，3…… Cheese！ With the dazzling light of the camera and the cheers of the students next to him, one of the few stains on Brandi's life was frozen at this moment. Immediately afterward, the crowd swarmed up and enveloped Lockhart tightly in the middle, everyone squeezing forward desperately, waving the newly published hardcover book in their hands.

It wasn't until there was applause in the teacher's seat that the farce gradually subsided.

Dumbledore rose from his seat and looked at everyone gently.

"Well, that's the end of the event or something. Now, we can all go back to our seats and take our seats, and I have two more things to inform you of before dinner begins. ”

Seeing the crowd around Lockhart slowly disperse, Professor Dumbledore nodded in satisfaction.

"The first is naturally about Professor Gilderoy Lockhart, who has suddenly appeared here, and this time he has returned to Hogwarts with a few chores to attend to besides promoting his new book - in fact, he has officially submitted his resignation to the school."

There was a sudden sigh and complaint from the audience, especially the majority of female students from various colleges.

"Quiet!" Dumbledore tapped the silver cup, "Hear me first, after this Chamber of Secrets, Professor Lockhart believes that his abilities still need to be exercised, so he offers to continue his adventure after the end of this semester. I guess you'd like to see his next book, too...... Of course, he will continue to teach here until after the final exams. ”

He paused, saw that everyone seemed to have no opinion, and continued. "Then the second thing, as we all know, is that from tomorrow there will be an Easter holiday in schools. This also means that the exchange between Hogwarts and Beauxbatons will officially begin. After the Easter holidays, there will be a group of youthful French girls in the school, I think...... Ahem, the boys in the upper grades should understand what I mean, and I hope you will be able to show the demeanor of an English gentleman. ”

This is easy to understand, and hundreds of pairs of green eyes below have begun to sparkle.

"However, before the exchange event begins, considering that this event is the first large-scale college exchange event held by the two schools in nearly 100 years, in order to ensure that there will be no accidents in the exchange process, the Ministry of Magic will arrange for the Aurors to conduct a series of magic screenings on the students participating in the exchange to rule out possible impersonation - after dinner, please also ask all the female students on this exchange list to go to the Transfiguration class classroom as soon as possible, and you will have an hour to complete the identity verification, I would like to warn students who are trying to cheat or who are trying to evade verification - if you do not participate in the screening, or if the Ministry of Magic finds out that you are not who you are, the Ministry of Magic will bring you back to the Ministry of Magic for interrogation under the pretext of trying to commit terrorist activities in another country, and in serious cases, you will be sent to Azkaban. Before trying to find a thrill, I hope you think it through. ”

As he spoke, his eyes glancing blankly at Gryffindor's long table. Not surprisingly, I saw the look of horror on Brandi's face.

"Now, then, dinner begins."

Almost at the same moment, under the somewhat surprised gaze of the crowd, Brandi jumped up from the bench. With a pained expression on his face, he clutched his stomach with his hands.

Next to him, his friends lay on the table, their bodies shaking.

"What's wrong, Mr. Barton?"

Nick, who was almost headless, came out of the table and said worriedly. "Could it be that you have a bad stomach at noon?"

"Hmm...... Yes. Brandi snorted in pain, "I think I've got to go to the bathroom!" ”

Under the gaze of the laughing fellows around him, Brandi ran away.

An hour, turn into a woman!?

Professor! You're pit me!
