"Students," Lockhart said, standing on the podium and smiling brightly at the dozens of students in the audience, "this is my last lesson for you. ”

The students obviously couldn't accept the sudden news and wailed one after another.

Although Professor Lockhart is not very good at teaching, he is not better than Professor Quirrell last year, and they do not expect to meet another teacher as conscientious as Professor White, they just want to be able to teach something well, at least not to let them not know the scope of the exam before the OWL exam.

"I can't bear your lovely faces," Lockhart explained to them, "but the great Professor Lockhart has a sea of stars in his heart, and his goal is to travel the whole world, not to stay in this quiet and peaceful castle and be a teacher all his life. ”

"My new book!" Lockhart changed the subject and pulled out a hardcover book from his bag, "Lockhart's Hogwarts Adventures!" ”

"This new book will be released on July 1st," Lockhart grinned, "If you are interested, you can buy a copy and take a look, it contains the whole process of the secret room incident, and there are some mysterious contents to be unlocked!" ”

After explaining the final exam papers to the students, Lockhart fulfilled his last duties as a Hogwarts professor and reluctantly left the classroom.

8th floor of the castle, rector's office.

Dumbledore sat across the table from Lockhart.

"Albus, I'm done," Lockhart stretched, "Have you decided on a professor for next year?" ”

Dumbledore smiled, "Although I brought you to Hogwarts. But you didn't suffer a loss, did you, and you also felt a lot of satisfaction in teaching a hot character like Harry and the son of an old man like Joel, right? ”

"That's natural," Lockhart said, looking a little lonely, "I even had the idea of continuing to teach until they graduated. ”

"Then I couldn't be more welcome, it's too hard to find a decent professor right now."

Dumbledore couldn't wait for Lockhart to stay and teach, because of Riddle's curse, the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor changes every year, he has visited old friends all these years, the old professors can't bear to come to Hogwarts for a year and leave the school due to various accidents, seeing that he has used up the network he has accumulated over the years, he has begun to pull down his face to find a student who has just graduated to become a professor.

"Forget it," Lockhart refused, shaking his head, "my goal in life cannot be delayed, and in August I will go to France for another adventure of my life." ”

"There's something I'd like to ask you," Lockhart glanced at the portrait of the Headmaster on the walls around him, leaning down and whispering into Dumbledore's ear, "The Riddle Diary, you know its true identity......"

"Horcrux," Dumbledore said calmly, "it's the Dark Lord's." ”

The look on Lockhart's face can only be described as wonderful, but then he was relieved, "I should have thought of it...... Can you use me for any help? ”

Dumbledore shook his head, "I haven't figured out the exact reason for casting the Horcruxes yet, I'll be looking for you when I need to, Gildero." ”

On July 2nd, Joel and his friends took the Hogwarts train to London, and the day before returning home, the results of the final exam had been announced, Joel had received an E in herbalism, and the rest of the grades were O, but the first grade was still Helis, and the girl's enthusiasm in learning was well known.

"Joel!"

Joel had just put his and Haylis' suitcases on the shelf when he heard someone calling out to him from behind.

Looking back, it turned out to be an iron triangle.

"We have something we want to talk to you about!" Ron waved.

"Then I'll go first," Joel looked at Hayris, "you ......"

"I'll bring Cho and Cedricla," Helis ruffled her hair behind her ears, "and you'll come to the cubicle later." ”

Joel followed Audio-Technica to their cubicle.

"Mr. Taylor, I have to thank you for protecting both of them in the Chamber of Secrets, otherwise they would have ...... with their recklessness," Hermione glanced at Ron with a hateful gaze.

"Okay Hermione," Ron was a little impatient, he was sometimes very tired of Hermione's motherly energy, feeling that she was rambling and belittling herself in front of people, but when she was alone, she enjoyed Hermione's nagging, and he couldn't figure out why, "Harry and I are not as stupid as you say, okay?" ”

Joel chuckled, "Speaking of which, the trip to the Chamber of Secrets is thanks to Ron and Harry, both of whom saved me and opened the Chamber of Secrets in a parseltongue, both of which played a crucial role. ”

The two blushed a little from the compliment, and Ron pulled a hardcover book out of his bag, "Do you remember when we heard Lockhart threaten Hagrid?" ”

"He's actually going into the Forbidden Forest to find the eight-eyed giant spider!" Ron opened the book of Lockhart's Hogwarts Adventures, and Lockhart on the cover was still taking off his hat to greet everyone, and his brilliant blonde hair was particularly eye-catching.

Joel took the book from Ron's hand and flipped through it, the first third of Lockhart's book describes how popular he was at Hogwarts and how he taught Harry Potter, the "boy who never died," and the four rising stars of CLBT.

The middle section describes how he fought the Eight-Eyed Spider in the Forbidden Forest, and even includes a photo of Lockhart stepping on an eight-eyed spider and comparing his scissorhands to the camera.

"I see," Joel knew in his heart, Lockhart threatened Hagrid in order to enter the Forbidden Forest and find some kind ......of vicious and powerful creature to defeat it, and write this experience into a book to continue to reflect his glorious image.

Hagrid had shown no idea about it, and it was probably Lockhart who had laid it all out and cast a forget-all spell on him.

"Shall we talk about this...... "Audio-Technica called Joel here to discuss it.

Joel shook his head, "Professor Lockhart wrote about this experience in the book, and Professor Dumbledore must know about it, and now that he has acquiesced in this behavior, we don't need to worry about anything more." ”

The Iron Triangle looked at each other, as Joel thought, the three of them were simply Dumbledore's loyal fans, as long as they moved out of Dumbledore, they would basically have no objections.

"If nothing else, I'll go back first......" Joel also wanted to take advantage of the time of the trip to get closer to Helis, otherwise they would have to meet through a two-way mirror when the holiday begins.

"Wait!" Harry stood up, his expression skewed, "Hmm...... We have a reluctant request. ”

Since it was a reluctant request, then simply don't say it, Joel scolded, but he had a smile on his face, "What's the matter?" ”

"I'd like to ask you to teach us dueling techniques," the introverted Harry plucked up the courage to speak, "After the trip to the Chamber of Secrets, we are deeply aware of our lack of combat skills, and we don't know if the Duel Club will continue to be held after Professor Lockhart leaves, so we would like to ask you to be our teacher." ”

In the secret room, Harry couldn't do anything, he could only watch the seniors and teachers shield themselves from the wind and rain, he was eager to improve his strength, Harry knew that he would have to face Voldemort in the future, and there was not much time left for him.

Joel's gaze swept over Iron Triangle's face, and he didn't respond for a moment, Hermione saw that he was slow to express his opinion, and her heart was anxious, and she was about to speak again when she heard Joel's calm voice.

"I agreed," Joel said, standing up, "and we'll be in touch when the new semester begins." ”

With that, he waved goodbye to the three of them and returned to the cell where Helis was.

Time with Haylis always flies, and Joel thinks it's just a blink of an eye, and Hogwarts Terry stops at King's Cross Station in London.

The two reluctantly said goodbye to each other, and Joel saw that Haylis had been picked up by her father, Mr. Selwyn, and hurried out of the station to take the knight's bus to Godric's Hollow.

"The Sword Comes"

Getting off the bumpy bus, Joel suddenly noticed that the World Tree, which he had been thinking about for a long time, finally moved.
