03 The Godfather is also here
Sherlock stood not far from the Blotted bookstore, looking at Harry and Lockhart, who were surrounded by book lovers.
He wanted to pull Ellie and Asinsha out of this place, so as not to be targeted by Gildero, Sherlock was not afraid of anyone, but he felt that Gilderoy would definitely take a photo when he saw him, which would be too troublesome.
"What a beautiful smile, Harry." Lockhart himself showed off a mouthful of sparkling teeth: "The two of us can go to the first edition." ”
When he finally let go of Harry's hand, Harry's fingers went numb.
He tried to slip back to the Weasleys, but Lockhart's arm was still on his shoulder, holding him firmly by his side.
"Ladies and gentlemen." Lockhart said loudly, waving everyone to silence "What an unusual moment!" I would like to take this wonderful occasion to announce a small matter, which I have not said for some time. ”
"When young Harry walked into the Blotted Bookstore today, he just wanted to buy my autobiography, and I was willing to give him the book for free on the spot."
Asin Saki pulled the corner of Sherlock's clothes, and she was also a little disgusted with Gildero, thinking that the other party was really contrived.
"If Sherlock were to write an autobiography, he would definitely be a hundred times better than these incompetent cats and dogs."
"Thanks for the compliment." Sherlock was calm, but unfortunately the door was blocked by a crowded wizard and couldn't get out for the time being.
And with Gildero's tone of voice finished.
Another round of applause, "But he didn't know." Lockhart continued, and shook Harry so that his glasses slipped onto the tip of his nose, "He's going to get something more valuable than his clumsy work soon, and in fact, he's going to get a real, magical me." Yes, ladies and gentlemen, it is my great pleasure and pride to announce that this September I will be the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry!"
Hearing Gildero's boastful talk about showing off his role as a professor at Hogwarts, Sherlock was speechless, and said that it was a big mistake, a huge mistake, for Dumbledore to let such a person become a professor at Hogwarts.
"Hey, Mr. Sherlock, I didn't expect to meet you here." A voice came from behind Sherlock Station, and Sherlock turned to his side, as Malfoy and his father, Lucius, walked towards the Charlotte family.
"Lu Xiusi, are you here to take your son to buy books?" Ellie smiled.
"Of course, Mrs. Mephisto, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you are still so radiant." Lucius took Ellie's hand and bowed her head to kiss her, a standard aristocratic gentleman's etiquette, to which Ellie just smiled, Malfoy always liked it, and even Draco's mother always held out the back of her hand whenever she met her.
"Yes, you know, I'm going to buy so many books about Lockhart this semester, I wonder if Dumbledore is old and confused, and he would ask this showy Girold to be Draco's Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher. In my opinion, this person has no ability at all except for showmanship. Lucius held a worn-out book somewhat unnaturally and complained to Ellie and the others.
"Who knows, Dumbledore must have done this with his deep meaning, maybe we didn't understand it." Ellie was obviously not interested in Lockhart, and waved her hand, even the witches here were fascinated by that Gildero, but Ellie could see through a person's hypocrisy at a glance, and this Gilderoy made her very unpleasant.
"Look, who is this, the famous Harry Potter, you must love that, Potter?" Malfoy suddenly looked like he had discovered some new world, his usual mocking smile on his face. "The famous Harry Potter." "You can't even go into a bookstore without making front-page news," Malfoy said. ”
Sherlock tried to stop Malfoy, but it was too late, and sure enough, when he said this, it quickly attracted the attention of the people present.
"Don't talk nonsense, he doesn't want that!" Ginny said.
It was the first time she had spoken in front of Harry, glaring at Malfoy.
At first, Malfoy was so hated that no one had noticed Sherlock and the others standing in the back so quickly.
"Potter, you've got a girlfriend!" Malfoy said in a long voice.
Ginny's face flushed, and Ron and Hermione squeezed over, each holding a stack of Lockhart's books.
"Oh, it's you." Ron looked at Malfoy as if he saw something disgusting on the soles of his shoes.
"You must be surprised to see Harry here, huh?"
"What surprised me even more was to see you enter the store, Weasley." Malfoy sneered, "I guess your mom and dad are going to be hungry next month to buy those things." ”
Sherlock covered his face, and Malfoy was too hateful to speak, and he was easy to beat.
Ron blushed and threw the book into the cauldron before charging at Malfoy.
Harry and Hermione tugged at his clothes from behind.
And just at this time, the sharp-eyed Harry saw the man standing behind Malfoy.
"Mr. Sherlock? And Asinsha! Harry shouted in surprise.
However, as soon as the name Sherlock came out, the chaotic bookstore instantly cooled down, and the surrounding wizards suddenly focused their eyes on the handsome young man with blond hair.
Some people were fascinated by worship, and some people also timidly retreated as if they were afraid of Sherlock, as if they saw a terrible figure standing there, and I was afraid that the next moment these frightened people would flee in a hurry.
The fear and worship of the wizard occupy half and half respectively, a stark contrast.
Some of the wizards in the wizarding world are very afraid of Sherlock, afraid of the mysterious strength of the other party, worried about the future of the wizarding world, and some are unfounded, but there is no shortage of admirers wherever powerful people go, which does not affect other wizards to worship Sherlock.
At this time, a tall man with red hair squeezed in from the crowd outside.
It can be regarded as breaking the solemn and quiet atmosphere.
"Ron!" Mr. Weasley squeezed over with Fred and George.
"What are you doing? How could it be so scary to be quiet all of a sudden? The people here are crazy, let's go out. ”
"Ahhh Arthur Weasley. ”
Sherlock watched as his godfather went out to pull hatred like his son, perhaps it was the famous godson who made Lucius quite confident here.
He placed one hand on Draco's shoulder, a sneer on his face that was identical to his son's.
"Lucius." Mr. Weasley nodded coldly.
"I heard that my brother is very busy with official business." Lucius said.
"So many plagiarisms. I suppose they paid you overtime? He reached into Ginny's cauldron and pulled a tattered copy of the Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration from between the new, shiny Lockhart books
Madame Ellie looked at Lucius and Arthur and really didn't know what to say, these two people seemed to be old enemies, as long as they met, nothing good would happen.
"It doesn't seem to be, my God, if you can't even get a good pay, what's the benefit of being a scum among wizards?"
Mr. Weasley's face was redder than Ron and Ginny's.
