Well, I hate wizard portraits.

- Ringo thought.

Portraits of the wizarding world are almost all animate, thinking, and "conscious", they contain the personality and partial memories of the depicted wizard, and can travel back and forth between different frames of the same portrait.

For example, Dalic Devonte in the Headmaster's office of Hogwarts, because she also has a portrait of her at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries, she can quickly travel between the two places.

Another example is Sirius' great-grandfather, Phineas Nigelles Black, whose portrait hangs in Dumbledore's office and 12 Grimmauld Place, so he can travel back and forth between the Headmaster's office and Black's ancestral home.

And now.

Replaced by Gilderoy Lockhart.

Ringo felt that with the narcissism of this "great writer", he was afraid that the room next to him would also be full of portraits of himself.

Other words......

I said that it was recommended by Lockhart, and the next moment I would be exposed by the portrait asking about the body.

Syllable!

Ringo stretched out his hand and pushed the portrait inward, so that the portrait of Lockhart could not see him, and then continued without blushing and heartbeat: "I'm just joking, in fact, I actually heard about the strength of your company and wanted to seek cooperation. ”

The Witch of Glasses pouted: "Every day there are speculators, saying that it is the Lockhart manuscript, or the Scamander manuscript, you are fine, but it is just that people recommend it...... Did you bring the manuscript? ”

"Brought it." Ringo pretended not to hear the witch's taunt, his eyes still confident, "But I think you should pick a safe room and look at it." ”

"You can go somewhere else." The Glasses Witch has issued an eviction order.

"Okay, I'll take a breath and leave."

Ringo placed the manuscript with the title on it on the table, looking like he was tired of stretching out, and then reached out again to pick up the manuscript and leave.

But......

The hand has not yet touched the manuscript.

The glasses witch suddenly stood up, staring at the manuscript with her eyes fixed on it, and said with an excited face: "Wait, I think I'm being rude, sir, can you go to the office and talk about it if you don't mind?" ”

Apparently.

She saw the title of the book.

It's just a glimpse, but it's enough to shock seasoned editors.

Merlin's beard! What do I see?

Dumbledore in love with me?

The title of the book...... How dare this person write!

No wonder so confident!

But I have to admit that the title of this book is simply hooking, I really want to see how powerful the content with this name is!

Ringo was not surprised by the witch's reaction.

But he was still puzzled: "Huh? Editor, didn't you wake up? Let me go for a while and let me in for a while, what the hell do you want? Please, I'm in a hurry, I don't have time to make small talk with you all the time. ”

Let's talk about it.

Ringo grabbed the manuscript and walked out.

There is no nostalgia at all.

However......

Hear his complaints.

The glasses witch didn't have any unpleasantness, but sped up her pace, and ran over before Ringo left the office completely: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm confused, sir, I'm interested in your manuscript, we can really talk about cooperation, ah yes, my name is Casey Grace, and I was responsible for proofreading Mr. Lockhart's "Walking with Trolls." ”

"You seem to be sincere, Ms. Grace." Ringo looked down at his watch, his face a little tangled, and finally said, "Okay, then let's talk." ”

"Thank you for your understanding."

Grace, the glasses witch, breathed a sigh of relief, and with a wave of her hand, she closed the door of the office, and then guided Ringo into a room in front: "Sir, you can drink some black tea, I'll review the manuscript now." ”

She made a pot of black tea.

and motioned for Ringo to hand her the manuscript.

But Ringo didn't do it: "I hope we can make an agreement now, the content is that even if you don't plan to cooperate, you can't leak, wash or plagiarize later." ”

"There has never been such a precedent!" Grace frowned.

Ringo stared at each other: "But this book is needed, because it may involve a lot of Dumbledore's privacy, which only a few people in this world know, even if the story is not good, these secrets alone are enough to trigger a buying frenzy." ”

"I can promise not to leak it."

"I only believe in the agreement." Ringo got up, "If you don't want it, forget it." ”

"Don't ......"

Grace hesitated for a moment on her face, and finally could only smile bitterly: "You win, sir, I can sign the agreement and see." ”

- Agreements are certainly not a panacea.

It cannot bind souls and cannot break the contract and die, but it is officially recognized by the Ministry of Magic, and it is not limited to the British Ministry of Magic.

This means that once signed.

As long as there is a breach of contract.

Ringo said yes - the Ministry of Magic is rotten, but it is still very fair in this kind of thing.

Grace had a lot of ready-made drafts of the treaty in her office, and the two of them drafted a new one on the spot, and Ringo handed her the manuscript after signing the contract.

And then......

Miss Editor is fascinated!

"Huh? The main character turns out to be a Miss Wizard, Mary? The name...... Oh, Mary is so lovely, so pure, is there such a perfect woman in the world? That's not true......"

"I'm sorry, it's my fault, if Mary is not good, how can she be liked by Dumbledore!"

"I've read Dumbledore's simple life, and the time of your book is exactly the same as the real time, is it really a novel?"

"Grindelwald...... I know him, and he almost started a world war...... Merlin's beard, how could he forcibly kiss Mary? Don't do that! Mary is Dumbledore's, bastard! ”

"Aphrodisiac is the most disgusting invention!"

"Wake up, Mary, your lover is Dumbledore, how can you, how can you be with Grindelwald...... And in front of Dumbledore! ”

"Why take off your clothes? Don't let the bad guys play with your body......"

"My sister is a good person......"

"Why! Why! This stinky brother, you can take revenge on Dumbledore, why do you want to take revenge on Mary......"

"Woo woo woo ......"

I have to say.

Ringo used a mature online writing technique when writing his book.

can describe a matter of violent emotional ups and downs without any stinginess, written on the front, set off on the side, strong contrast, exclaimed by passers-by, and left blank afterwards......

So much so that Grace is an old editor though.

But as the plot deepens.

is still gradually immersed in the plot.

Emotions are full of sorrow.

Infinite tangled.

- No matter how experienced she is, it is the first time that she has suffered a positive impact from online texts!

So much so that when I saw the heroine break up with her lover Dumbledore after losing her memory, she left with the villain and a third party, Grindwald.

The editor finally couldn't help but take off his glasses.

Cry.

"Lady Grace, are you alright? Let's have a cup of black tea. Ringo comforted gently.

Grace looked at him aggrievedly: "Mary is so cute, so perfect, why are you bullying her, can't you give her and Dumbledore a perfect ending?" ”

"Uh......"

Ringo looked at her suspiciously: "Madam, this is just a novel, the perfect person in the novel is used to abuse, there is no highlight if you don't abuse, you see, although you are depressed after reading it, don't you think it's good-looking?" Want to see the second half in particular? ”

"Yes." Grace wiped her tears, "You're right, it's me who is unprofessional, alas, it's annoying, it's mainly because you write too ......"

Ultimately.

Completely sober, she burst into tears and smiled: "Sir, this is a good book, please cooperate with us." ”

"What about the manuscript fee and the contract?"

"What do you think?" Speaking of professional, Grace recovers shrewdness.

"I'm not a greedy person and know I'm a newbie, so I'm not very demanding." Ringo also had a sincere smile.

"So ......"

"So just give me the same treatment as Lockhart."

Ms. Grace froze instantly.
