In the venue, Lockhart not only did not recognize himself immediately, but even mistakenly mistook Damocis Belby, a potions master in his forties, for Li Fei.

Why does this person feel like he is in a trance, and his memory has become very poor?

Li Fei, who felt that he had lost face in front of Dumbledore and Newt, frowned slightly and planned to beat him.

How can you do not respect the book friend who ranks first in your fan value, and let you have a long memory today.

To be honest, the moment Li Fei took out a wad of pale blue envelopes from the magic pendant on his chest, Lockhart even froze his heartbeat.

If it is said that every inch of time is an inch of gold, then the gold galleons that Li Fei spent on Lockhart have reached a length that is enough to make the electrocardiogram of the internationally renowned best-selling author stop beating by several inches.

There is no way, there is no online article in Huaxia during this time period.

Li Fei, who is tired of reading traditional literature, can only take Lockhart's "works" as a reading when he is unwilling to be a "literary copyist".

Fortunately, although the story was stolen from other people, some of the knowledge about dealing with werewolves and vampires in the book is still true and very desirable.

Li Fei, who has been a man of two lifetimes, knows one thing very well: "If we do not occupy the commanding heights of public opinion, then the right to speak will be occupied by the enemy." ”

"If you have the media, you have the right to speak."

As one of the two major "pen sticks" in the United Kingdom, Gilderoy Lockhart's deep narcissism and greed for money are very easy to control, so it took Li Fei almost a year to make his name the most important existence in Lockhart's mind.

However, how long has it been since this damn coder forgot about your big brother?

Is it too much to clean up?

As Li Fei's expression began to become serious, Lockhart's face changed drastically:

"Dear Boss Li Fei, please don't be like me, I am indeed a little carried away because I am about to receive a third-class Merlin Medal, and I am a little neglectful of you.

It's my fault that every mistake is my fault, you have a lot of adults, I hope you don't bother with me as a small author, let alone tell those booksellers about returns, please! ”

"Merlin, 3rd degree? This year's Merlin Medal laureate is still you? ”

Li Fei was obviously interested.

"Could it be that the stories you made up in your book have convinced the examiners of the Knights of Merlin?"

"I dare to swear to Merlin that the stories in my books are true!" Lockhart insisted, then lowered his voice slightly, "But the reviewers still didn't think I had enough merit to nominate me for the Order of Merlin." ”

"Then you can still get a Merlin Medal of the Third Degree? Wouldn't it be a donation to the Ministry of Magic with the money I used to buy your books?

You must know that the most worthwhile and at the same time the most valuable Merlin Order of the First Class in history was awarded by Arcturus Black, the elder of the Sirius Black family.

On the surface, he was commended for his 'contribution to the Ministry of Magic', but in fact he donated a huge fortune to the Ministry of Magic. ”

"Rest assured, I have definitely not spent so much money on this medal, after all...... I'm not really wealthy. ”

Lockhart awkwardly responded to Li Fei's question, revealing his classic elegant smile with twelve teeth.

"Then how exactly did you get this honor, might as well tell me about it."

Li Fei is interested, could it really be a medal obtained by developing shampoos? That's where it gets interesting.

Lockhart pursed his lips, hesitated again and again, but whispered in Li Fei's ear:

"Because of the significant improvements I've made to the magic of memory, they agree that this is enough to qualify for the merits required of a Merlin Order of the Third Class.

I had no idea that such a 'little trick' alone would be enough to earn a Merlin Medal. ”

"Well, I'll forgive you this time, after all, we were just pen pals before.

I forgot that I had forgotten that I was only twelve years old.

Twelve years old, named Li Fei, a Hogwarts student, Merlin Order of Merlin 2nd Degree.

Even if there are people with the same name and surname, at least in the UK, I can't find the same resume as me. ”

"Yes, I promise I'll never forget it again, I don't know how, I've been in a trance lately.

Perhaps it was the declaration of the Order of Merlin, 3rd class, that overworked me...... In short, I will never neglect you in the slightest, please be sure to support my new book "Walking with the Snowman in Xizang". ”

"Okay, okay, just remember that I have to be assigned a cameo in this book."

Li Fei, who satisfied his curiosity for knowledge, no longer planned to talk to Lockhart.

In the distance, Harry Potter was looking at Li Fei's side, but it was only because Lockhart had just annoyed him that he panicked, so he didn't come over for a long time.

Li Fei stopped talking, but Dumbledore, the headmaster on the side, suddenly spoke.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Gildero, and it seems that you've been doing well all these years."

Li Fei keenly felt that as soon as Dumbledore's words came out, Lockhart's entire body began to tremble.

"It seems that after all these years, you have never replied to the letter I wrote to you, and this kind of heartless behavior will make an old man extremely sad.

How's it going, how did you think about my invitation? Do you want to be a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts for a year?

I have reason to believe that if your experience is as legendary as your book, you will probably not be much weaker than this old friend next to me. ”

Lockhart looked up tremblingly, and found that standing next to Dumbledore at this moment was a thin little old man!

"Who is this......?"

"Ahem," Li Fei, who had just taken advantage of the old man, behaved enthusiastically like a dog's leg, "I would like to formally introduce to you, this is Mr. Newt Scamander, a legendary-level magical beast researcher, the first man to arrest Grindelwald, and the author of the book "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them". ”

Uncle Newt originally just wanted to simply "hum" in response, but after listening to Li Fei's introduction to himself, he always felt that if he didn't respond officially, he would be a little sorry for Li Fei's boasting about himself.

"Yes, I'm Newt Scamander, and I've read your book, and there are many serious flaws in the description of magical beasts, but I can correct them for you if you want."

Well, being able to tolerate and agree to correct in person, instead of rudely asking the other party why he didn't buy his book, is already the highest level of kindness that the "socially difficult household" Newt can unleash at the moment.

After thanking Mr. Scamander for his corrections, Newt greeted Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape, and fled on the grounds that he was "unwell".

"Professor Dumbledore, looking at his cowardice, are you still planning to make Lockhart a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor?"

Although Li Fei is familiar with the original book, but seeing Lockhart's "extremely compelling" appearance, Li Fei suddenly wondered if it was because the butterfly wings flapped by his arrival had affected the direction of the story.

Otherwise, with the other party's cowardice, he has obviously been hiding for many years, how could he be moved by Lao Deng next year and take the initiative to agree to serve as the professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts, isn't this jumping into the fire pit?

In response to Li Fei's inquiry, Dumbledore sighed helplessly:

"Lockhart was a very smart kid, in fact, he was smarter than the vast majority of Hogwarts students.

Although he has always given me a very 'frivolous' feeling, since I learned that Li Feiyou is also a fan of his books, I have tried to re-examine Lockhart's campus life from another perspective.

I've found that I prefer to call this way of acting 'pompous' rather than 'frivolous' than the original definition of 'frivolous'.

Maybe he's a genius, but he's just starting to shine now, maybe he's just starting to shine. ”

Dumbledore actually had a trace of unreasonable opinion of Lockhart because of Li Fei's frequent correspondence with Lockhart, after all, in Lao Deng's opinion, the person who can be favored by Li Fei has some real ability.

In this regard, Li Fei said that he didn't memorize this pot, he just simply liked to watch Lockhart write cool essays, and had no other meaning at all.

However, Dumbledore didn't know this, and he was still gushing about Lockhart's past as a student:

"There is no doubt that all the professors felt that he had an average IQ and talent, and even that he had the best talent in the whole school in some areas that interested him.

Although when his alumni are mentioned in Lockhart, most people will only remember the vows he once boasted about: such as making the Philosopher's Stone before graduation, leading the LinkedIn Glen Quidditch national team to win the World Cup after graduation, and then retiring to become the youngest Minister of Magic, etc.

But if he is willing to work hard, even if he can't fulfill the vow he boasted about, he will definitely achieve something and do something.

After entering Ravenclaw, he quickly got good grades in every class and assignment, but he was not satisfied, because he was keenly aware that no matter how hard he studied, the number one position was far from him.

He was never the man of the school, because Hogwarts had fourth-year James, Lily, Snape, Lupin, and Sirius...... Too many geniuses shine their own legends at Hogwarts.

Lockhart was devastated, and it was hard for him to understand why someone was better than him in terms of talent and grades, and he seemed to have a natural desire to be surrounded by stars.

To be honest, the current situation of Li Fei and Harry being noticed by the students during their time at school is definitely the picture of Lockhart's dreams.

According to his fellow dorm mates, Lockhart's notebook had a sentence on the first page: 'If I'm not the strongest, the best at an assignment, I'd rather not do it.'" ’

So, he used his talent for shortcuts, and he no longer studied for the sake of learning, but for the sake of fame.

He just wants to win awards, he just wants to be famous.

He applied to me many times and eventually succeeded in starting the school magazine, which was flocked to the content of the school magazine, but no one knew that he did it all so that everyone could see his name on the editorial board.

I have to admit one thing, he had several exclusive magic spells that were very powerful when he was a student, and if I'm not mistaken, you should have made one thing clear: strong willpower or spirit can make the effect of a spell more powerful, right? ”

Li Fei nodded solemnly: "I had experienced it before, until later Professor Griffin, a noble knight, selflessly explained this technique in class. ”

Dumbledore also bowed slightly, and continued:

"Yes, strong willpower can cause the effect of the spell to multiply, and someone can even cross death. (This sentence Lao Deng said very lightly and vaguely, but Li Fei heard it)

Lockhart is one such person, he has engraved his personal signature on the Quidditch playground with an original magic, and his signature engraved on the playground is beyond the professor's choice, and must be physically removed, and cannot be magically restored.

While I was able to bring the Quidditch pitch back to life, I'll admit that I was so impressed by his wonderful signature spell that I thought was worth leaving on the lawn and slowly disappearing.

Later, Voldemort began his reign of darkness, and Lockhart shocked us once again when almost all the students on campus were afraid of the demon king whose name he couldn't even mention.

He actually relied on the basic collection of books in the library to successfully reproduce the magic of [Bone Reappearance], and extremely comically replaced the [Dark Devil Mark] with Lockhart's own face and shot it into the sky. ”

"This talent is really quite terrifying......" Li Fei couldn't help but take a deep breath for Lockhart, this kind of talent, how can it be seen that it doesn't look like the straw bag that doesn't know anything in the original book, right?

"Yes, it's really a very good talent...... Dumbledore sighed softly, "as long as it is beneficial to be famous, he will do it meticulously, but as long as it is done in obscurity, he will not hesitate to give up."

One year on Valentine's Day, which I will never forget in my life, he actually sent himself 800 Valentine's cards.

But that's not the point, the point is that the owls gathered in the auditorium that day made everyone have to give up breakfast, because too many feathers and droppings have fallen into the porridge. ”

"Forehead ......"

Lockhart finally left Hogwarts, much to the relief of all the professors and staff.

But soon more and more of his deeds abroad spread, making us all think that we might have mistaken him, and that his specialty after graduation was the Oblivion Charm and Shampoo.

The shampoo he developed was really effective, I bought it once, and it really "locks in a bright shine" as advertised.

It's just that because the most important material requires the use of bird and snake eggs, and bird and snake eggs are very expensive, and the refining process is dangerous, they have not received venture capital from the elves.

But these shampoos were enough to prove his potions and alchemy. ”

Dumbledore was about to continue, but the lights in the hall suddenly dimmed, and the dim night was full of stars, and only in the very center there were countless lights illuminating a small stage.

An old man with white hair appeared in the center of the stage, who Li Fei didn't know who she was, but he only heard the old man speak slowly in her hoarse and firm tone:

"Wizards from all over the world are welcome to this grand event, the award ceremony of the Order of Merlin has officially begun, and we have the first recipient of the Order of Merlin of the Third Class."

"He has traveled far away for many years to eliminate all kinds of dangers, and the cause of fighting all kinds of dark creatures is a testament to his extraordinary courage and resilience."

"He has won the Wizarding Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award five times in a row, and he is the 'Heart Arsonist' in the hearts of thousands of girls, igniting the fire in the hearts of all girls in the wizarding world, including me."

"Although this year he was nominated for the Order of Merlin, 3rd class, for the reason that the near-perfect modification of the [Memory Charm] opened a new chapter in the research of the Charm."

"But I believe that at this moment, many people should think the same as me, and what he really deserves is the [Most Charming Smile Award in the History of the Order of Merlin]!"

"Let us welcome him to the stage with applause, he is, Mr. Gilderoy Lockhart!!"
