Chapter 302: "Contract"

At Christmas, Muggles are supposed to be hiding at home and eating turkey with their families, and the transportation department does not work. There are hardly any people on the streets, and only a few shops are open on either side. The snow on the ground is thick, not only is no one sweeping, but there are not even a few footprints, and it is very comfortable to step on it.

The five of them just walked side by side.

"I still think the last Horcrux will be hiding in some reliable Death Eater's house......"

"We have already attacked Manjik's house, and we can't act rashly anytime soon. "It's best to figure out which one you are in first, and then when you decide to fight back, destroy the Ministry's energy supply system, and get it when the Loyalty Charm fails." ”

"Well, that's all there is to it. ”

"Gildero......" Hermione took him by the arm and whispered to him.

"What's wrong, dear?" Lockhart followed her to the side of the road.

"I ...... Just saw a registry ......" Hermione blushed and her voice became imperceptible, "You said wait until I'm of legal age......"

"Cyris, Hermione and I have something to do, you take them shopping. Lockhart handed Blake a note, and a wad of pounds. "The list of things you need is all on it, and you will meet at the entrance of the supermarket later. ”

"What are you going to do?" asked Cyreth curiously, taking his things.

"By my last name, by Hermione's name. Lockhart said, pulling Hermione away as the trio looked at them in amazement. "I'm sorry for you. ”

――

"I didn't have enough papers...... Lockhart's cheerfulness made Hermione very happy, but then frustrated.

"We are wizards, Hermione. Lockhart said with a smile.

Standing at the door of the registry, Lockhart took out his wand, he didn't want to marry Hermione like anyone else.

"Wild volatile. With two spells, Hermione and Lockhart quickly regained their original appearances and entered the registry holding hands.

"Marriage certificate. Hermione was too nervous to speak, and Lockhart had to negotiate with the staff himself.

The woman sitting behind the counter looked lazy. Raised his eyes and looked at Lockhart: "Look at the sign over there, give me all the documents required above, for the two of them." ”

Lockhart pulled out a few blank pieces of parchment, handed them to her, and waved his wand at her. Under the influence of the Confusion Charm, the female staff member took a serious look at the blank parchment.

"Fill this out. She pulled out a thick blank piece of paper, "and pay twenty-three pounds." ”

Lockhart picked up the pen and filled in her information smoothly, and when it was Hermione's turn, her hands trembled so much that she could barely hold the pen. It took several minutes to fill it out.

Edinburgh. 25 December 1997.

Gilderoy Lockhart is 34 years old - [Other Information]......

Hermione Jane Granger, 18 years old - [Other Information]......

Lockhart handed back the completed form and took out Β£50.

"Gildero," Hermione pulled him in, "can we get the money for the marriage together......"

"Well, well, but I don't have three pounds in change. Lockhart looked at her suspiciously, maybe Hermione felt that the money for the marriage made by the two together represented an equal marriage?

"I have!" Hermione hurriedly pulled a roll of money out of her pocket, and found one for ten pounds, and three for one pound. It was handed to Lockhart.

Lockhart couldn't help laughing, took another ten pounds from his bag, and handed it to the staff.

――

Ten minutes later, with the help of a confusion charm. All the formalities were simplified, and the two left the registration office.

Hermione took the marriage certificate and looked at it over and over again.

It's like a dream, when I first saw this registry. Hermione was still hesitating to mention this matter now, who knew that she couldn't help but say a word to Lockhart, and the marriage would be completed in minutes.

"My name is Hermione Jane Lockhart now. She said in a trembling voice. Years of crush finally came to fruition. "I'm so happy, Gildero, I'm your wife now......" Hermione's eyes were red again, and she looked like she was about to burst into tears again.

"Okay, okay, don't cry~ Xiao Shuishui, let's drink the compound decoction, let's go to Sirius and them. Seeing Hermione so excited, Lockhart felt happy too. "Without this note, you are also my wife, there are many people in the world who can kill me, but no one can take you away from me. ”

"Hmm......" Hermione choked up and nodded, and couldn't help but put her arms around Lockhart and kiss him again.

Lockhart now understands why the Order of the Phoenix is so full of husbands and wives, and this kind of friendship that comes from fighting and fleeing together, and the relationship cultivated by opening up their hearts to each other, is indeed extremely strong. Marrying Hermione wasn't done on the spur of the moment or just to make good on a promise, but he really decided to cherish and protect Hermione for the rest of his life.

――

"Done?" Blake asked curiously.

"I'm done, now please call me Mrs. Lockhart!" Hermione put her arm around Lockhart's arm, so clingy that she couldn't shake it off.

"Congratulations, Hermione. Both Harry and Albert said happily.

"Well, Mrs. Lockhart, we've bought a lot of ingredients this time, so you'll need to improve your cooking skills. Blake laughed and said, "Otherwise, I won't recognize you, the mistress of the Lockhart house." ”

"Hmph, don't eat if you have the ability, it's good for Gildelow to recognize me. Hermione wrinkled her nose at him.

"Where do we go next?" Blake changed the subject.

"Arthur said we could go to Bill and Fleur's house for Christmas, and the Burrow was under surveillance. Lockhart said that Arthur had just sent him an invitation. "And Tonks and Lupin will be there, she's going to give birth. ”

"We should probably buy some more gifts, I guess there will be quite a few people there. Blake said hesitantly.

"Good idea, let's go, there's an open door over there. ”

――

They walked a few dozen meters along the street, preparing to cross the road.

"Slow down, there's a car coming. Hermione shouted.

A truck slowly drove over the snowy road, making two deep ruts, and all five people avoided the side of the road until it drove past before starting to cross the road.

"What's on that car?" Blake asked, confused, "what does it look like a machete?"

"But who can use such a big machete," Harry suddenly felt a little uneasy, as if he had stumbled upon some conspiracy, "Could it be that the Muggles are in collusion with the giants?"

"Giants don't use such big machetes, they must be ornaments or something," Lockhart knew Muggles a little better than them, "for a giant sculpture." ”

"Poof-" Albert couldn't help but laugh, "Don't guess, it's a blade, a wind turbine blade." ”

"Harry, didn't you grow up in a Muggle family, why didn't you even know this thing. Hermione couldn't help but laugh.

"What is a wind turbine?" Blake asked curiously.

"It's like an electric fan, you've seen it, turning electricity into wind. Hermione explained to him, "Wind turbines are the other way around, turning the wind in nature into electricity. ”

"Muggles are amazing...... "Blake couldn't help but admire.

"That wasn't a big deal just now. "In the United States, the largest wind turbine has a nut the size of a tire. ”

A couple of wizards walked into the roadside gift shop in amazement and bought a bunch of gifts, they didn't dare to go to Diagon Alley now, but they thought the Weasleys would love the Muggle world too.
