Chapter 234: Defence Against the Dark Arts (×)

“…… I wouldn't be surprised if they fired you if they stole the car, and I will see how I clean you up then. You probably didn't even think about how your dad and I felt when we found out that the car was gone......"

"Receiving Dumbledore's letter last night, your father was so ashamed that he almost died. We worked so hard to bring you up, we didn't expect you to do such a thing, you and Harry almost lost their lives......"

“…… It's infuriating, your dad will be censored in the unit, it's all your fault. If you don't follow the rules, we'll bring you back right away!" ”

The sound of the roaring letter shook the entire table with cutlery and food. The look on Malfoy's face never stopped. Neville silently gagged his ears. Some of the students burst out laughing.

After greeting Ginny, the yelling letter tore himself to shreds.

Ron blushed with shame at first. But gradually, his face turned pale. Because he saw a few people who didn't laugh.

George and Fred just glanced at their brother. Then he silently ate his own meal. There wasn't even a smile on their faces. Ginny shook her head in disappointment at Ron.

Originally, Ron would have been in trouble. But they also heard what Mom said in the letter. Mr. Wesley is under review by the Authority.

If someone had tried to do it at this time, maybe they would have been able to replace Mr. Wesley. Of course, this is not the deadliest. The deadliest of nature are salary deductions and suspensions.

If Mr. Wesley's salary is suspended, then the family will have to start living. After all, Mrs. Wesley's salary alone could not support the entire family. Fortunately, now that there are five children at Hogwarts, it doesn't cost much money.

But the distress it caused to their family was real.

Glanced at Ron's pale face. Hermione shook her head slightly, "Do you expect anything else?" Ron? Truly...... Apparently the two of you have been forgiven by the Ministry of Magic. Someone has set the right thing for you. ”

It could have been Mr. Wesley who had taken all the blame on himself, or it could have been Dumbledore who had said hello. Anyway, the two of them can escape the Ministry of Magic.

As soon as these words came out, not only Ron, but even Harry began to feel ashamed.

Just then, Fred walked over and said to Luke, "Luke, I know it's not in order, but ......"

Luke didn't wait for Fred to finish before he spoke, "I'll let Gemma settle your share of the money in advance, and it will be in your hands in a few days." ”

Fred breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you." ”

Luke, who was seated, smiled and gently slapped Fred's arm and said, "We don't have to be so polite to each other. ”

Malfoy didn't say anything, just looked at Ron with a sneering look.

Ron felt that Malfoy might as well have made a mockery, and then the two of them fought. Now, if you talk about it, you will take the initiative to stir up trouble. So he could only lower his head and not look Malfoy's eyes.

Malfoy looked at Ron like this, feeling like he had opened the door to a new world. Sure enough, Luke was right, sometimes taking the initiative to taunt will only get you into trouble. And silent ridicule can often make the other party fall into passivity.

All I can say is...... It's not easy to learn well, and it's hard to learn badly.

The little storm at lunch just passed.

In the afternoon, they had another challenge to face.

Defence Against the Dark Arts ......

"I don't know what Professor Lockhart will have to say!"

Hermione had a good habit of studying her textbooks ahead of time. As a result, she already has a considerable affection for the all-powerful handsome wizard in the book. And the thought of such a wizard now having to teach her a lesson made her feel genuinely happy.

Luke pursed his lips as he looked at Taylor, who was calm and indifferent to the matter, and Hermione, who already had a clear crush on Lockhart.

Seriously, Quirrell's class last year was also a disaster. But Tom learns some good things when he gives them lessons. After all, the premise of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class should be to learn the dark arts, or at least understand the dark arts.

And what Tom taught last year was how to use black magic. Although it is ill-intentioned, the teaching is quite thorough, and the content is quite solid. At the very least, it gave the students some basic understanding of the dark arts. Instead of the stereotype that black magic is evil.

This has left some new students with undeserved expectations for Defence Against the Dark Arts class.

You know, after so many years, not to mention whether there are reliable Defence Against the Dark Arts professors, I don't even know if there are any such as Lockhart. That's why the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher in the back, Dumbledore will be drawn from the Order of the Phoenix.

"You'd better not get your hopes up, Hermione."

Luke said frankly to Hermione, "There's something wrong with Lockhart. From his story to himself, there are questions. ”

After hearing Luke's words, Hermione did not refute, but frowned: "Question ......"

If someone else had said this, Hermione might have put a 'jealous' hat on that person while not believing it. But now, it was Luke who said this, so she had to think about it.

Luke didn't say anything. In fact, the words just now were also too talkative.

"Let's go, you'll know after this lesson."

There is no need to say anything at all, as long as this lesson is taken, then as long as this person is still sane, he will see the truth of Lockhart clearly.

But as they were about to arrive at the classroom, they saw a crowd in the hallway. Malfoy's nature has not changed, and when Harry does something, he will still make sarcastic remarks. It is not good for these two people to say that they are friends. To say that it is an enemy is not hatred.

Very awkward relationship.

"That's Harry? Is Malfoy looking for trouble with him? ”

Taylor frowned. Harry had a decent relationship with her, knowing that Harry had a place in Luke's plans, and that friends were more important than enemies. So she would take care of Harry from time to time. Not from the heart, just for Luke.

"Maybe something unreasonable happened to Harry." Hermione had already summed up some rules, as long as Harry did something unconventional, Malfoy's friendly or unkind taunts would appear at the right time to interrupt Harry's embarrassment or good mood.

As the three approached, they heard a young boy with a camera who looked like he was in first grade shouting at Malfoy, "I think you're jealous!" ”

Malfoy was stunned when he heard this.

"Jealousy? Jealous that you asked him for a photo? ”

Malfoy really looked like he was taunting, but Harry couldn't stop Harry from staring at him with a vicious look. So he could only say relatively gently: "Not everyone is like you, little ghost. ”

Luke smiled, satisfied with the effect of the change he had made. In the original book, Malfoy said a lot more ugly.

"Autographed photo?! Who's talking about autographed photos! ”

Gilderoy Lockhart strode towards them, turquoise robes fluttering behind him.

Luke took a deep breath and silently hid behind Taylor, but Taylor was much shorter than him, so he had to turn his back.

Lockhart grabbed Harry's shoulder, "We're meeting again!" Harry! ”

Harry's face was embarrassed, and he was a little at a loss for a moment. Malfoy and Ron both sensed something was wrong, and Ron tried to get Harry up to him, wondering if he could pull Harry out of Lockhart's arms.

Malfoy, on the other hand, silently took two steps back. He didn't want to have anything to do with such a sensationalizing guy. I don't know what kind of bad luck Harry has fallen on, there is no such thing entangled.

"Come on, Mr. Creevey," Lockhart said with a smile on his face, "and a double photo, it's a good deal, and we'll both sign it for you." ”

Moments later, Colin had an autographed photo of Harry and Lockhart. Of course, Harry's name was signed by Lockhart.

Harry was then dragged by Lockhart to the classroom.

Harry looked around in desperation, looking for someone who could help him escape.

He saw Luke's back, but Luke didn't turn his head to look at him, obviously not wanting to get involved.

Just like Malfoy thought. In their eyes, being involved with Lockhart is too cheap.

Hermione watched as Lockhart held Harry's back, then at Luke's apparent avoidance of the other's gaze. Suddenly I kind of understood what Luke meant.

"Something doesn't seem right with him."

Taylor is more direct: "Such a pompous person doesn't look much like the person in the book." ”

Luke didn't speak, just walked forward silently. What you see in books and movies is just someone else's story, and when it's really your turn to do something like this, you understand what embarrassment is.

As they approached the classroom, they saw Lockhart.

And Lockhart's eyes lit up visibly when he saw Luke.

"Oh! Mr. Gaunt! I've heard of it for a long time! ”

Lockhart came up to shake Luke's hand. The smile on his face was too enthusiastic.

Taylor glanced at the other party, a hint of surprise flashing across his face.

Luke looked at Lockhart, who was coming towards him, and knew that this incident was inevitable after all, so he gestured to the two girls behind him. Hermione and Taylor saw the gesture and left first.

Luke, on the other hand, had a reserved and distant expression on his face, and said to Lockhart with a smile: "Professor Lockhart, your writing is very good. ”

Lockhart's writing is really great. The story of the ups and downs is obviously more touching under his description.

"Haha! Pretty good, right? Lockhart smiled in what he thought was the most relatable, "I think you'll like it." ”

Luke avoided the importance of a brief chat with Lockhart, and then hurried to find a chance to get out.

As he chatted, Malfoy hurried past him. Although he is not a celebrity, Lockhart may not take the initiative to chat with him. But it's better to be on the safe side.

Returning to his seat, Luke let out a long sigh of relief.

"What is he talking to you about?"

Taylor asked, curiously. Hermione looked at her in confusion.

Luke thought back to the unnutritious he and Lockhart had been talking about.

"Ask for money."

Luke ended up saying only those two words.

What else could someone like Lockhart do with him? must be beating around the bush and trying to trick him into money. Hell, even those sub-nobles didn't dare to beat Luke after knowing that he was not easy to mess with.

And Lockhart is still self-righteous, thinking that Luke will be a big fool of him. This really surprised Luke and made him feel helpless at the same time.

He couldn't even figure out why.

Does he seem to be that easy to fool? What the next book can be co-authored by two people. The main Luke can pay for it. Judging by the price, Lockhart must have really wanted to give Luke a chance to co-author a book with him.

Of course, Luke pays for it, Lockhart writes it, and which unknown unlucky guy comes out with the story.

The problem is, the price Lockhart offered. To put it mildly, Luke thinks he can hire 20 gloves to take Lockhart's dog's life.

How did he open his mouth?

"Be careful, Lockhart's Occlumency is so strong that I can't see what he's thinking, I can't see through it at all. And I doubt he'll use the Regent to take his mind. ”

Taylor hastened to warn Luke. Hermione nodded as well, "I can also feel a little bit of the fluctuation of memory magic." It's not just Occlumency. There may be others. ”

Since the beginning of the last school year, she has focused most of her contacts on the study and research of memory magic, and has already reached the threshold of memory magic formulas.

She was confident that if she was given some more time, she would be able to complete the analysis of the magic formula of the 'Forget and Forget' spell.

And Luke had told her that he would give her a big gift when she finished analyzing it.

Luke nodded, he knew very well that Lockhart was the only magic that this guy was good at. Oblivion was probably his most proficient form of magic. Occlumency, too. And this is confirmed by Taylor's words.

After them, the students arrived one after another. Everyone is looking forward to what kind of unique lesson Lockhart, a well-known master of magic, will give them.

Once the class was seated, Lockhart cleared his throat loudly to silence everyone. He reached for Neville Longbottom's Walking with Trolls in his hand, showing the blinking photo of himself on the cover.

"I," he said, pointing to his picture and winking at his own, "Gilderoy Lockhart, Lord Merlin, 3rd Class, Honorary Member of the Defence Against the Dark Arts League, five-time winner of Wizarding Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award – but I don't talk about that, I'm not smiling to exorcise Wanlun's female ghost!" ”

Some of the students smiled, apparently knowing what Lockhart was talking about Wan Lun's female ghost.

But there are very few, only a few people.

Next, he handed out a small test paper made by himself.

"Give you thirty minutes. Now – get started! ”

Luke looked at the test paper in his hand.

1. What is Gilderoy Lockhart's favorite color?

2. What is Gilderoy Lockhart's secret ambition?

3. What do you think is Gilderoy Lockhart's greatest achievement to date?

And so on, on three sides of paper, and the last question is:

4. What is Gilderoy Lockhart's birthday? What would be his ideal birthday present?

Then, Luke threw the test paper in his hand to the side.

He felt that the first blank scroll of his wizarding career was about to be born.
