Chapter 100: Arthur Discharged from the Hospital (Part II)

"yes, I'll try......" Harry said unconfidently.

"Anyway, you have to do well in my class, Harry, or I'm sorry I care about you!"

"His defense class is definitely excellent. Ron swore awkwardly, "He's pretty much the best at using magic in the school." ”

Mrs. Weasley interjected, "Ron, how good can you get?" ”

Ron scratched his head helplessly, "Maybe you can get one, but don't get your hopes up." ”

"You have such a good relationship with Hermione, why can't you learn from her!" Mrs. Weasley said disappointedly, "Hermione, how many good can you get?"

Hermione was stunned when she was suddenly asked, and she said hesitantly, "I don't know...... I just want to get by. ”

"Come on," Ron exclaimed, "I dare say Hermione wants to be all good, and even if she doesn't play well, at least she will exceed expectations." ”

"Oh my God, Hermione. "You're amazing!" said Brother George.

"My defense class has been ......," Hermione said dejectedly.

Several people at the table looked at Lockhart, which made Lockhart uncomfortable, not to mention the cat squatting on his lap. Lupin interjected, "Hermione, haven't you noticed that there are your two defense professors in this room, I'd love to tutor you privately,"

"Gildero, if Hermione didn't do well in her defense class, you must have failed to teach her well. Mrs. Weasley stared at Lockhart and said, "It looks like you and Hermione have managed to do their job together, which is good news, can't you help Hermione with her homework while your little girlfriend is away?" ”

Hermione hurriedly defended Lockhart: "The professor has always helped me, but I don't have the talent myself. ”

Lockhart was a little sore about it, why did he bring up this topic again, he quickly changed the topic: "Harry, if you want to be an Auror, can you win good potions, Professor Snape is very strict about this." ”

"Everybody knows Snape is biased against me......" Harry said dejectedly.

"Call Professor Snape!" Lockhart corrected, "he doesn't like you, but he doesn't teach you anything, and if you ask him any questions, he'll taunt you at most, and he'll tell you." ”

"Gilderoy is right, but let's hurry up and eat, it's cold. Jasmine brought Percy some food and said.

"That's right, let's eat. Tonks happily turned back into red hair.

So everyone began to eat and discuss interesting topics with the people around them, Mrs. Weasley pulled Percy to ask questions, the George brothers were over there and Mundungus muttering strange things, Tonks gave the people next to her what they wanted to see, and Kingsley sat there coldly drinking and eating alone......

Lockhart picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, looking up at the other side, Ron was feasting, Harry was looking at Ginny, and Hermione was pursed at herself.

Lockhart smiled at her in a friendly manner, and after confirming the teacher-student relationship between them, they all became relaxed and happy, Hermione no longer blushed and avoided Lockhart's gaze, and Lockhart could chat and laugh with Hermione without any burden. Lockhart is also sorry for inexplicably letting Hermione's first love come to an end, and he has been trying to make up for her loss.

How can you get a woman's heart quickly? Make her believe that you will be responsible for her. In the same way, how to approach a man easily, to convince him that you are not responsible for each other's ambiguity at all. At this point, Hermione inadvertently succeeded.

"Professor, where were you on Christmas Day, why didn't you come with us to see Ron's dad. ”

"I received an invitation from the Minister of Magic...... Lockhart wasn't prepared to say this to Hermione, "what's going on with your L.K.E., Hermione." ”

Hermione put down her fork and said happily, "Professor, I think I'm about to move on to the second phase." After a long period of public opinion, and with the fact that I had Rita Skeeter come to investigate, there should be no one in the wizarding world who abuses house-elves anymore. ”

"Phase two? Are you saying you're going to start working for the elves for the good? Isn't it too fast-paced. Lockhart's vision is that the plan will not work for at least a few decades.

"That's right, first of all, I think we should fight for the right to wear normal clothes for the elves, then the right to rest, holidays, medical ......" Hermione was completely caught up in the lust for the future, and her eyes that had been staring at Lockhart began to shine, "Maybe in a few years, the elves will be free and can get paid!"

"My God......" Lockhart was a little surprised, "are you sure the time has come?" ”

"Yes, it's not just me, it's Rita Skeeter who thinks so. Hermione said happily, "Character aside, she's really a brilliant journalist!, Professor, she's helped me a lot, and she seems to be starting to devote herself to the cause, which in her own words will make her famous in history!"

Lockhart opened his mouth, he was just annoyed by her and casually gave her a difficult to achieve Jianyì, but he didn't expect her to make it sound and impressive.

"Professor, all three of us have a share in this!" Hermione said with a wink, it felt good to be able to accomplish something big with someone she liked, "You wouldn't mind letting Rita Skeeter leave her name as well, she made an effort to ......"

"Of course not...... Well done, Hermione. Lockhart gave her a thumbs up.

Hermione remembered something again, and she lowered her voice, "Professor, your Christmas presents were sent to school by owls, and now they are in your upstairs room." ”

"Oh, got it, thanks. Lohar nodded, "Do you like my Christmas present for you?" ”

"I like everything the professor has given me!" replied Hermione cheerfully, "and I've always wanted that book!"

After dinner, Lockhart went back to his upstairs room. One room was full of Christmas gifts, all from book lovers and students. Lockhart sat on the bed and called out to Jim, the elf, to tear all the Christmas presents apart.

Most of the students gave snacks or greeting cards, and some of the book lovers had slightly more expensive gifts. Harry gave him a roll call with the names of the whole school, probably noticing that Lockhart often couldn't remember the names of some of the students, the Weasleys gave him a sweater with his initials, which Lockhart swore would never wear out, Hermione gave him a scarf, probably she knitted herself, which was thankfully unmarked and might be able to be worn, George and Fred gave him a bunch of knick-knacks that Lockhart didn't know what they were, and Lockhart didn't dare try them here.

After reading all the presents, Lockhart got up and went to the next room, where Ginny and Hermione watched Harry and Ron play wizard chess, while the twin brothers muttered about what new inventions they were going to make.

"Harry, how are you doing with your Occlumency?" Lockhart asked.

Harry looked up at Lockhart, "Professor, uh......h

"Ron says he still has nightmares!" Hermione unceremoniously sold him.
