Chapter 6: Gilderoy Lockhart

At this point, they want to buy books, and they obviously have to queue up in front of the cash register. Draco simply said to Benjamin www.biquge.info "That's right, although they are pure-blood wizards, their family is too capable to give birth. You see, you're so poor, and you're still giving birth to children. A lot of wizards have said that Mr. Weasley looks so thin, I didn't expect him to be very capable!"

Benjamin touched his ear to make sure it wasn't red before saying, "Well, you can skip this." ”

Draco suddenly burst into a wicked laugh, "Benjamin, you're too innocent sometimes. To be honest, if you like that know-it-all lady, I can help you, she actually learns to take care of herself, which should be very good. ”

"Draco, weren't we talking about the Weasleys?" Benjamin immediately interrupted Draco.

"Alright, the Weasleys. Their family is very poor, and most of the white wizards are poor and have no business acumen. The Ministry of Magic's annual salary is pitiful! Your family and the Malfoy family make money from industry. Draco said dismissively.

Benjamin nodded, he knew this, after all, his family now has a lot of properties in the UK.

The Ludwig family's vault must be full of gold, right?

"If you sympathize with them, you can suggest them do business?

"Fred and George were nice. Benjamin said suddenly.

Draco didn't speak, but began to follow the book list, putting all the books he needed in his hands.

By this time, Harry and the others had already arrived at the bookstore, and Draco said with some remorse, "We should have left sooner, I don't want to see them again." ”

Benjamin had also already found a book, and said indifferently, "Anyway, I will see it every day at school, why are you so excited!"

Draco, however, emphasized, "It's because I see them every day at school that I don't want to see them more now!" Benjamin, you might as well give me a forget-all of them!"

Benjamin tugged at the corners of his mouth, he actually wanted to tell Draco that he had used the Oblivion Charm on him once.

Of course, Hermione saw Benjamin and them, but she was still comforting an angry Ron, so she had to pretend she didn't see them.

By this time, Benjamin and Draco had already bought the book, and they saw Harry and the three of them, quickly grab a copy of "Break with the Female Ghost", and rushed behind the Weasleys and the Grangers who were queuing.

"Only a man of their intelligence would worship such a grandstanding clown!" Draco pursed his lips, but walked to the back of the line very honestly.

Benjamin was used to situations like this, so he wasn't too surprised.

Gradually, they had seen Gilderoy Lockhart. He sat behind his desk, surrounded by large photographs of himself of faces all blinking at the crowd and showing their teeth dazzling white. The real Lockhart wears a robe as blue as a forget-me-not flower, matching his blue eyes. The peaked wizard's hat is playfully crooked over a curly hair.

A short, grumpy man holding a large black camera jumped up and down to take pictures in front of him. Every time the flash flashes blindly, puffs of purple smoke erupt from the camera.

"Get out of the way," the short man yelled at Ron, backing away for a better angle, "this was for the Daily Prophet." ”

"It's amazing. Ron said, rubbing the instep of the man's foot. Draco smiled very unkindly.

Gilderoy Lockhart heard the voice. He looked up and saw Ron, then Harry.

Draco said to Benjamin, "He's definitely seen the Savior." ”

Benjamin shrugged noncommittally.

He stared at Harry for a moment, then jumped up and shouted, "Isn't this Harry Potter?"

At this point, the crowd moved out of the way, and everyone whispered excitedly. Lockhart rushed forward, grabbed Harry's arm, and pulled him forward, causing the audience to burst into applause.

Harry's face was feverish, and Lockhart held his hand for the photographer to take a picture. The short man frantically pressed the shutter, and puffs of smoke drifted onto the Weasleys.

"Harry, you had such a beautiful smile just now!" Lockhart said to Harry, baring a mouthful of beautiful teeth at the camera, "We can go to the first edition." ”

"Is the first edition of the Daily Prophet so glorious?" asked Benjamin, puzzled.

Draco snorted, "I haven't been on it anyway." ”

Benjamin suddenly laughed, "Then I'll definitely be able to go up in the future." Seeing Draco's disgust, he added, "When the time comes, you can also learn from Lockhart and come to the first edition with me." ”

At this point, Lockhart finally let go of Harry's hand, and 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," said Lockhart, waving his hand to silence everyone, "what an extraordinary moment! I am going to make an announcement on this wonderful occasion about a little matter which I have not said for some time. ”

"When young Harry walked into the Blotted Bookstore to-day, he just wanted to buy my autobiography - I would give it to him for free on the spot—" Another round of applause, "but he didn't know it," Lockhart continued, and shook Harry so that his glasses slipped to the tip of his nose, "and he will soon get something more valuable than the clumsy 'Enchanted Me', and in fact, he and his classmates will get a real, enchanted 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!"

The crowd began to applaud wildly, and Benjamin even heard Mrs. Weasley let out a moving cry.

Only Ginny, silently looking at Harry.

"How do I think this teacher is worse than the last one. Draco said suddenly.

Benjamin could only echo, "Pretty much, I think this man is a bit of a bard." ”

"Bard, what is that?" Draco asked suddenly.

"Oh, it's the kind of person who likes to brag about his adventures, but in fact, has no real skills. ”

By this time Harry had walked past the two of them with a red face, with Ginny.

"The great Harry Potter, you can buy a book in the bookstore and get the first edition!"

"Draco, are you envious?"

"I didn't!"
