Chapter 21: A plan to change the plot
After the incident was over, after breaking up with the team, Lockhart kept wondering, under the perfect planning, a dragon was easily killed like this, so can Voldemort also be killed by a perfect siege, and if so, then why did Voldemort leave a terrifying legend more than ten years ago? How strong is Voldemort? Who is Dumbledore better than him?
This time, Lockhart spent only three weeks on the island of Lockhart, and with a month to go before the World Cup final, Lockhart was able to rest at home for some time.
When he arrives at home, the house-elf Jim respectfully prepares a bath and a large meal for him, sorts all the backlog of letters from book lovers and friends on Lockhart's desk, and destroys all dangerous letters such as the Rant Letters.
After a brief reply to his book fans and the students who wrote to him, Lockhart began to seriously plan his life for the next year, the next year the school would host the Triwizard Tournament, and the faculty already knew that in the original episode, Barty Crouch Jr., disguised as Moody, sent Harry Potter to Voldemort during the game and resurrected him.
But after Lockhart was involuntarily involved in the plot twice, he began to worry a little that Harry Potter's defeat of Voldemort was not so much fate, but rather a coincidence of success and defeat, first of all, Harry and Voldemort's wands were in the same wand core, Voldemort couldn't kill Harry, and then he changed his wand and was not handy enough, and finally got the old wand, and he was still loyal to Harry Potter, which is simply too.
Lockhart couldn't guarantee that this would happen even if he was caught up in the plot, so he decided to take the initiative to change the plot so that Voldemort could not be resurrected.
Let Harry be fully grown up and then deal with Voldemort, Lockhart guessed that Dumbledore secretly drank the magic potion for the savior trio, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why the three underage wizards would be so strong, so it would be safer to face the resurrected Voldemort when they were older and stronger.
Let's do it, anyway, this time Barty Jr. can't disguise himself as Moody to infiltrate the school, Lockhart himself should be careful to make sure that Harry is not taken away by Voldemort, and he can spend this year in peace, thinking of this, Lockhart felt a burst of excitement in his heart, he can live a stable life for a few years, and he can be a respected professor for a few years!
To celebrate this project, Lockhart decided to go out and have some fun and fool around on Muggle soil.
Lockhart took a sip of the homemade elixir and apparitioned to the downtown area of London, ready to have some sexual encounters and find some excitement or something.
The effects of the elixir soon took effect, and Lockhart met his favorite student and his Muggle parents on the street, "Miss Granger is the hardest working student I have ever met! Wise and beautiful, she will definitely be a strong woman in the future!" He praised his little friend from the bottom of his heart, and the object of praise looked at Lockhart happily behind his parents - presumably Hermione was also very happy to meet Lockhart on the street.
The Granger couple had a fond impression of the handsome and aristocratic professor in front of them, "Hermione, she often talks to us about you! ”
The Granger couples often mingled with all sorts of people and enjoyed making wizard friends, which made Lockhart more and more speculative with them, chatting in the café almost all night.
When they parted, the Granger couple sincerely hoped to see Lockhart more often, and Lockhart said that they would take more care of Hermione at school.
