Chapter 159: Catherine: Aren't You Afraid of Going to Hell?
Cat Cat Professor ...... Ah no, Professor McGonagall was still more coaxing, and it didn't take long to coax Tifa to be less upset.
Speaking from the heart, Professor McGonagall is usually very gentle, and as long as her classmates don't make mistakes, she is even gentler than Dumbledore.
But given the virtues of the Gryffindor students, it seemed difficult for Professor McGonagall to be calm throughout the semester.
If you want Gryffindor's classmates not to get into trouble, it will be difficult to win the World Cup in Lisbi.
The other three professors also took a look at Lockhart's remains, and everyone was saddened, especially Snape.
"You boy still owe me a bottle of elixir......" he muttered to himself, pinching his hooked nose and staring at the lump of Lockhart, thinking to himself that forget about it, and forget about it when everyone is gone.
There are several excuses that are universal in the world, big holidays, they are all coming, and everyone is gone. In fact, it's not an excuse, it's more of a step, for others and for yourself.
Of course, Snape understands this truth, as the so-called tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall, the wool comes out of the sheep, and the lost bottle of elixir is made up from Dumbledore.
As a president, you can't let your professors fail to pay their debts, right?
Thinking of this, Snape pulled out a sinister smile, startling Hermione and Ron.
The two of them whispered to each other, and when they looked up again, they saw Snape looking at them with a gloomy gaze.
Noticing that the two of them looked up, Snape slowly turned his head back like an owl.
Professor McGonagall clapped her hands, and when she saw that she had attracted people's attention, she said to the three little ones, "Okay boys, I think you should go back." ”
"You stay, Louis." Professor McGonagall highlighted Louis's name.
As for Professor McGonagall, the three little ones didn't dare to take a chance like they did with Dumbledore, and they looked at each other and walked out of the Headmaster's office in a daze.
It is a very good and vivid interpretation of what it means to be a county official, not as good as the current management.
"Albus is really, alas." Professor McGonagall shook her head helplessly and looked at Tifa, "When people die, they will be buried in the earth, Gilderoy is always the professor of Hogwarts, if you don't mind, we can hold a funeral for Gildero." ”
"Thank you, Professor." Tifa's eyes were red, but she still couldn't stop her tears.
After discussion by several Deans, it was decided that Professor Gilderoy Lockhart's funeral would be held in Hogwarts Hall in three days' time.
The cemetery is located on the hillside far from the castle, where many staff and students who died at Hogwarts are buried.
After all, Professor Lockhart is also a member of Hogwarts, attending Hogwarts and whining at Hogwarts, if he is removed from what he did, he will be considered to be dead.
But his actions somewhat discredited Hogwarts.
There were many people who wrote to Hogwarts wanting to attend Lockhart's funeral, especially his fans, who were basically his fans.
But I don't know whether to be envious or pitiful, there are more than 1,000 fans who attended Lockhart's funeral, which is still able to spare time that day, but there is only one friend.
"So that's why you're gloating?" In the office, Catherine asked as she sipped her coffee.
Today's Catherine didn't know where to have a convulsion, and actually put on a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and that kind of elegant and intellectual aura made Louis a little uncontrollable from the bottom of his heart.
The senior sister is really changeable, except for the temperament of the sister department, she doesn't like it, like what kind of intellectuality, royal sister, queen and the like, they are all very good.
There is such a wife in the family, and wolfberries are difficult to treat...... But Louis has a cheat, so it's not a big deal.
He took the coffee from Christasza and shook his head in denial, "I'm not that kind of person...... It's not enough to gloat, but sympathy, I really don't. ”
"Hmm." Catherine nodded: "I don't like Lockhart either. ”
"You don't want to ask why?" Louis was choked up at once, he had planned to pick up the good things Lockhart did with Catherine, but Catherine's refusal made him a little uncomfortable.
It's like something, it's like you take off your pants and she tells you to come to your aunt, it's extremely embarrassing.
Catherine looked at Louis like a fish in her throat, and couldn't help but chuckle and hold her glasses: "Okay, you can talk about it." ”
The voice is very gentle, and it has the feeling of an intellectual big sister.
"I won't say anything." Louis lost his temper, and leaned his arms on the table with his arms folded and his head pinned to the side.
Catherine covered her mouth and chuckled, stood up and walked over, put her arm on his shoulder, put it in his ear and whispered, "Oh, tell me......"
"Don't say it, I'm emotional." Louis was secretly refreshed.
"Okay......" Catherine shook Louis, her voice softer.
That's pretty hard to resist......
"Okay, okay." Louis cleared his throat: "Since you have begged me sincerely, I will tell you with great mercy." ”
"Books about him, basically, are made up - oh, I'm not quite accurate here, I should say, stolen." Louis shrugged: "It's like a country called 'Southief' at the southern tip of a peninsula in the Far East, which likes to steal other people's things for themselves. ”
It's a bit of a smuggler, Louis and his grandfather seem to have a grudge against Japan and South Korea, grandpa is extremely hateful of devils, and grandson is extremely hateful of sticks.
Of course, the devil and the stick are indeed not good cakes.
"Lockhart is one such person, in his exact words, 'Wouldn't the reader be willing to read the deeds of an ugly old American wizard, even though he had ridden a village from the scourge of werewolves and put his picture on the cover, wouldn't it be hard to see death?' He doesn't have any taste in his clothes.'" ”
"These are his original words, the deeds of this old wizard, which he adapted into "Walking with Werewolves".
"There is also "Breaking with the Female Ghost", which describes his expulsion of Wanlun's female ghost, which is actually the achievement of an old witch, but he stole it as his own."
Catherine was a little surprised, she had always thought that Lockhart was just a straw bag, and his book was probably made up, she never expected him to be such a despicable villain.
"What about the experiencers of the stories he stole for himself?" Christasa asked cutely.
Louis gave a look of pity in return: "Silly female dragon, there is a spell in the wizarding world called 'Forget is empty'......"
"Oh my God......" Although Catherine's personality is a little cold, her three views are still very upright, she really can't accept that such a person can be a teacher and a professor at Hogwarts.
"I really don't know what Dumbledore thinks, how can he let this kind of person be a professor......"
Her expression was a little disappointed, Dumbledore, as the headmaster of Hogwarts, could accept such a person as a professor in the school, which was not what a headmaster should do.
"Hey, it doesn't have anything to do with us." Louis spread his hands: "His funeral is in two days, I really didn't expect so many die-hard fans to come to mourn." ”
"This scum!" Catherine gritted her teeth and said: "This kind of scum actually has fans, Merlin is really blind!" ”
"We might as well look at the bright side." Louis stroked Catherine's hair: "The friends who attended his funeral didn't even have a ...... in Myrtle's bathroom"
Myrtle: "Don't cue. ”
Louis is not talking nonsense at all, nor is he making things up, thanks to Lockhart's character, he has offended people over the years, and it is difficult to find a close friend for someone like this who likes to show off and pretend to be forked when he has nothing to do.
At most, you can make two friends with wine and meat to eat Li Zhuang white meat, but do you think this kind of superficial brother can come to the funeral?
That's definitely not possible, how can the rites go out with it......
"So what are you going to do? Exposing his true face at a funeral? Catherine leaned on his arms, and now Louis, who had eaten the golden kera, was already a head taller than Catherine, not to mention, although her body was still a little thin, but the feeling of snuggling in Louis's arms made Catherine very useful, especially when his chin was on top of her head, which always made her feel inexplicably relieved.
"Oh no, I won't." Louis played with Catherine's soft jade hand and whispered, "The loss of such a great best-selling author and professor who is popular with his classmates is a loss for the entire wizarding world......"
"But you ......" Catherine turned her head and looked at Louis in some surprise: "Didn't you say he was ...... before"
"What did I say about him?" Louis squeezed her little hand and chuckled softly, "Think about it, snatch his remains from the lair of the monster that ate the great adventurer and best-selling author, and successfully kill this monster...... It's also a good time to attract attention. ”
"But this doesn't contradict exposing his face......" The jealous Catherine still despised Lockhart's plagiarism.
"Do you think it's better to avenge a great adventurer with a best-selling author, or to avenge a liar?" Louis squeezed her little hand again.
"What's more, if this matter is revealed, what a blow to Hogwarts' prestige, think about it, Hogwarts actually accepted a liar as a teacher of Defence Against the Dark Arts class...... Tsk, not only Hogwarts, but even Dumbledore will be discredited. ”
Catherine looked at Louis again, a look of surprise in her eyes.
It was a long time before she said quietly, "Are you really not afraid of going to hell, Louis?" ”
"Oh, my little Cathy darling...... I can't believe you still have theological tendencies. ”
Louis's tone was very bad, and he rubbed his nose against Catherine's face as he spoke. As soon as he finished speaking, Catherine stepped on him angrily.
"Everything has to be good, at least he can create value for me, right?" Louis took a bite of her earlobe and grinned, "Overall, he has done more to the wizarding world than he has ever lived." ”
Catherine burst out laughing when she heard this, she gently rubbed Louis's waist with her elbow, and looked up at him: "Then have you finalized the details of the funeral with the deans?" ”
"Of course, in order to pay tribute to this adventurer, I specially asked Ye Zi to invite a suona team." Louis said with a smile.
"Suona? That's great, but why this instrument? "Catherine didn't know much about the instrument.
"In my mother's homeland, there is such a saying......" Louis raised his head with some nostalgia, just as Ye Ziyan also walked in.
She pursed her lips and chuckled and teased the two Louis who were hugging each other: "You are tired of being together in broad daylight, and you two are not too hot to panic......"
With that, she walked over to Louis's office chair and sat down, "What are you talking about?" ”
"Oh, I'm talking about Lockhart's funeral, just talking about suona, Xiaoyue doesn't know what suona is, I'll introduce it to her."
Ye Ziyan raised his eyebrows lightly: "Okay, I just want to hear your evaluation of this instrument." ”
Louis sighed and pretended to be very literary: "All kinds of musical instruments, suona is king, either ascending to heaven or worshipping the church." The thousand-year-old pipa is a thousand-year-old zheng, an erhu pulls a lifetime, and the suona sounds at the end of the whole play. As soon as the song sounded, the cloth was covered, and the whole village waited for the food to be served, walking, lifting, followed by a piece of white. As soon as the coffin is lifted, the soil is buried, relatives and friends cry, firecrackers sound, suona blows, the front is lifted, the back is chased, the first time I don't know the meaning of the suona, and then I smell that it is already a person in the coffin......"
When Ye Ziyan heard this, she raised her little foot and kicked on Louis's calf: "Little bastard, why do I feel more and more like you have lived in Seris?" It feels like you know better than I do......"
Louis hiccuped and laughed, and instead of answering, he asked rhetorically, "You just say that the image I said is not good......
"It's really vivid......," Ye Ziyan sighed, she supported her cheek with one hand, looking into the distance a little stupidly, and a little homesick.
"In short, the volume of suona is relatively loud, and with its cover, you can talk about something else." Louis smacked his lips, "Well, this funeral is indeed time, anyway, I have a chat with Fudge." ”
……
At breakfast the next day, Louis, who was eating a small stove, knocked on the door.
"Louis, Louis." It was Ron who knocked on the door, and his voice was urgent.
Christasza opened the door, and it wasn't just Ron, but also Hermione and Harry, who were inseparable from him.
Louis gracefully picked up the napkin, wiped his lips lightly, then turned his head and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Professor Sprout's mandrakes are ripe, Madam Pomfrey has made them into an antidote, and Luna has woken up!" Hermione spoke quickly, but her eyes were fixed on the bacon on the table.
She swallowed hard, she hadn't eaten in the morning, and the canteen obviously didn't serve bacon today, why did Louis have it here?
"You haven't eaten yet, let's all sit down." Louis turned around and asked Christasza to move a few chairs: "There must be a lot of people in Madam Pomfrey, let's go back later, and fill our stomachs first." ”
The three of them didn't have any opinions, it should be said that, apart from Hermione, the two of them were also hungry for bacon.
"Didn't you say that bacon isn't served in the cafeteria today?" Hermione asked as she ate.
"Oh, today's breakfast was made by Cathy." Louis's tone was calm, but the three of them heard a strong sense of ostentation.
His subconscious meaning was, "Look, my wife's cooking is delicious, right?" ”
At this moment, even though he hadn't eaten a few bites, the three little ones felt that they were full.
Fed with dog food.
Louis held a bouquet of fresh flowers, and Catherine took a copy of "Learning Divination from Scratch", because she thought that the chattering Luna was very suitable for this kind of divination.
Of course, Louis also knew that Luna's talent for divination was outstanding, so he didn't object to Catherine.
The infirmary had long since been cleaned, leaving only brothers Luna and Lovegood, and her sister Arco.
Since Luna is relatively weak, she plans to rest for a while before going out.
"Hi, Luna." Louis greeted and placed the bouquet on the bedside table.
Catherine also placed the book next to the bouquet.
"Very beautiful flowers, thank you, Luis." Luna's voice was still ethereal, like singing: "Thank you, Catherine, it looks like you two are together." ”
"yes." Louis smiled and squeezed Catherine's hand.
He looked to the side again, "Hello, Zlatan, and Arco...... This is Luna's father, Mr. Lovegood, right? ”
Luna's father's hair, like his daughter's, was blonde, and he stood up and solemnly stretched out his hand: "I am Xenophilius Lovegood, and it is a pleasure to meet you, Your Highness. ”
"I'm Luna's classmate and a good friend of his, so you don't have to be so polite." Louis smiled and shook Xenophilius' hand: "At the same time, I am also a loyal reader of "Singing Contrarians". ”
"Really? That's an honor. Xenophilius suddenly became very happy, as if he had a good face.
After a few more pleasantries, Luna said that she had rested well and wanted to be discharged from the hospital.
Madam Pomfrey's medical wing didn't require any discharge procedures, just said hello and left the medical wing with Luna.
On the way, Luis stopped Zlatan.
"What's wrong? Louis? Zlatan asked curiously.
Louis looked at the wizard who looked like Da Yin Bu in terms of height, figure and appearance, and shook his head to get rid of the sense of déjà vu: "I have a not-so-mature idea. ”
"Tell me about it." Da Yin Bu ...... It was Zlatan who came to interest.
"Have you ever thought about becoming the Minister of Magic?" Louis looked at Zlatan with blazing eyes.
"Me?" Zlatan was stunned, and then he smiled and patted Louis with his fan-like hand: "Zlatan doesn't think he can become the Minister of Magic. ”
"Be a man with faith, Zlatan." Louis's eyes were firm: "I think you're a good fit." ”
Zla looked at Louis calmly for a long time, smiled and shook his head: "I don't want to do this, Fudge is still in the position of Minister of Magic." ”
Louis immediately understood his deeper meaning, and did not explicitly accept or reject it, just saying "Fudge is still the Minister of Magic", and the subtext is "I can consider it if Fudge steps down".
They are all thousand-year-old foxes, and they don't need to break the words, and they play one by one.
The two foxes, one big and one small, glanced at each other, and the exchange of interests that they had secretly reached was all in plain sight.
