Chapter 48: The Anti-Lockhart Alliance
"Professor Flitwick, Professor Lockhart made us face a group of Cornish elves alone!"
"Professor Flitwick, look at my hair!"
"Professor Flitwick, you want to help us!"
The eaglets quickly find Professor Flitwick, especially Michael, who is carrying the cage, and Morty, who is also haircut.
"Kids, don't get excited, don't get excited." Professor Flitwick took a tray of small cakes from a drawer and shared them among the others, and softly reassured, "I already know about it, I'll report to Professor Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall." ”
"But before the school decides, I want you to control your emotions, we are wise Ravenclaws, and we need to use our superior ingenuity to solve problems."
"What do you mean by Professor Flitwick?" Leaving Professor Flitwick's office, Terry asked Ike in a soft voice.
"Obviously, it's up to us to figure it out ourselves." Michael frowned, one hand still covering the top of his head, "Everyone knows how hard it is to find a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts, and it's impossible for the school to replace Lockhart because of this little thing, unless he really has a serious problem." ”
"It's hard." Stewart said, "If Lockhart's secret had been so easy to discover, Dumbledore wouldn't have known about it. ”
"Actually, I have a clue about this matter, do you want to hear about it?" After thinking about it, Ike decided to give a little hint so that the eaglets wouldn't be cranky.
"What?" Michael immediately asked.
"We already know what happened to Lockhart, but it's a far cry from the image in his book." Ike shook the "Break with the Female Ghost" in his hand, "A wizard who can banish the female ghost and suppress the werewolf will not be overwhelmed by a group of Cornwall elves." ”
"You mean Lockhart is cheating? He stole someone else's story! Michael's eyes lit up and he was interested.
"It's possible, but it's also possible that he heard it." Ike smiled, "There's no proof, but we can't defeat a third-class medalist of the Order of Merlin." ”
"Then find the evidence!" Michael, who was desperate to avenge his hair, was very concerned about this, slapped him violently, and said, "We want to form an 'anti-Lockhart coalition' and strive to expose his disguise as soon as possible!" ”
"We all want to do that." Ike nodded, then pointed to the top of Michael's head, "But now you'd better hurry up and find Madam Pomfrey, to be honest, it's a bit dazzling......"
"Damn it!" Michael quickly covered the top of his head, cursed, and trotted to find Madam Pomfrey. Anthony and Terry followed suit, heading straight for the school hospital on the second floor of the castle.
Ike and Stewart walked slowly to the auditorium, lunch time was approaching. The morning exercise is a bit heavy, and I need energy urgently.
Madam Pomfrey's craft is trustworthy, and the hair growth potion provided by Professor Snape has a slight side effect, and the hair grows a little fast, and it has to be cut every half hour. As Michael's roommate, Anthony took on the task of cutting his hair, and it wasn't until dinner that Michael's hair stopped growing.
Michael, who had no worries, quickly took action and found Roger first. Roger naturally heard about what happened to his second-year brother in Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and while expressing deep sympathy, he agreed to Michael's invitation and led all the older wizards of Ravenclaw to join the "Anti-Lockhart Alliance". And Penelope's Senpai also fell under Morty's pear blossom and rain offensive, and Ravenclaw, who was divided yesterday, was unified, after only one day.
President Michael convened the first plenary meeting of the "Anti-Lockhart Coalition" in the common room, and established the overall goal of finding evidence of Lockhart's fraud and expelling Hogwarts as soon as possible. At the meeting, there was a heated discussion on the specific course of action, and the result of the discussion was that the witches maintained a good relationship with Lockhart, lowered Lockhart's vigilance, and the rest was left to see one step at a time.
This decision was unanimously praised by the witches led by Penelope, who said that they would complete the task. Roger also made some additions, asking the excellent wizards of Ravenclaw to do what they liked, and play freely while doing a good job of covering, still taking one step at a time.
The meeting was not all smooth sailing, and Morty repeatedly objected, but after receiving Roger's treasured bee candy and a moving butterfly hairpin from Penelope, Morty also became a staunch member of the "anti-Lockhart coalition".
The instability was eliminated and the meeting was a complete success. In celebration of the founding of the Society, President Michael decided to throw a party, and Vice President Roger went out of his way to get the Gryffindor Twins to buy a lot of Butterbeer, a sweet drink that was very popular with Hogwarts wizards.
The party in the common room lasted until the second half of the night, and the next day many Kitty Hawks looked listless. Fortunately, there are no classes in the morning of the second grade, so I can sleep in. And while Ike and the others were asleep, the "Anti-Lockhart Alliance" had already launched an operation.
Before the action could bear fruit, Ravenclaw encountered a new crisis.
The so-called hearing is false, seeing is believing.
In just one week, when all the young wizards had taken a Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson, Lockhart became a laughing stock.
Although he still wears a sleek outfit every day, and there are many young witches who defend him, they are limited to "Lockhart is handsome and charming".
On the matter of "Professor Lockhart has no real skills", the little wizards basically reached a consensus.
But with this, the status of the eaglets in Hogwarts declined further. Four of the six Defence Against the Dark Arts professors came from Ravenclaw. Especially in the past two years, first Quirrell and then Lockhart, the teaching level is a mess, and the eaglets are speechless.
There is no way, the facts are there.
In order to maintain the glory of Ravenclaw and reverse the reputation of falling to the bottom, under the call of the organization of the "Anti-Lockhart Alliance" and the two vice presidents of Roger and Penelope, the eaglets began a crazy journey of scoring, adding five to ten points per class, and in a short period of time, the Ravenclaw academy was brushed to more than 300%.
This is desperate when other colleges are about to pass two hundred points.
And this was done under the premise that Ike, the best scoring machine in the last school year, did not make the slightest achievement.
In the face of Ravenclaw, which opened a terrifying score gap of nearly 100 points not long after the start of school, the other houses had to be silent.
The Anti-Lockhart Alliance also took the opportunity to expand its influence to other houses, and soon won the support of the vast majority of Hufflepuff and Gryffindor, and a small number of non-pure-blood wizards joined in Slytherin.
Unfortunately, even with the concentration of the vast majority of Hogwarts people, they still haven't found a single clue that can be used.
