Chapter Ninety-Five: The Gringotts Goblin Who Beat the Depositor
But what does that mean? It is not a mistake to abuse power for personal gain, but it is a mistake to be discovered. Mr. Great Writer is so swaggering, I think someone will complain to the Ministry of Magic. ”
Stan said slowly, "Fifty thousand copies sold...... Gilderoy Lockhart is really crazy, and his peers will definitely not let him go. ”
Luo Cheng listened and laughed secretly, although the conductor was not good-looking, he was still quite knowledgeable, because this was the case - after Gilderoy Lockhart's books were included in the Hogwarts opening list, Dumbledore and Fudge both received a lot of reports - many wizards strongly criticized this excessive way of using power for personal gain, and some wizards were extremely bold to point out that Gilderoy Lockhart was suspected of falsifying and stealing other people's experience to create. It's just that the Defence Against the Dark Arts teaching position at Hogwarts is notorious after all, and those wizards with some insight know that this position is cursed by Voldemort, and no wizard can stay in this position for a year, so Dumbledore and Fudge have to treat it as if they didn't see these reports - after all, it is difficult for them to find someone to take over this position temporarily, only those wizards who don't know the inside story and foreign wizards who want to get a vote are willing to take this job.
"Drunken trouble? Gringotts goblin clerks openly beat depositors over trivial matters. ”
"Yesterday, there was another brawl at Gringotts Bank in Diagon Lane. At about 11 o'clock, when Mr. Leonard, who lives in Derbyshire, went to the bank to withdraw money, he had a conflict with the goblin staff of Gringotts because of the queuing problem, and after the quarrel, the goblin staff took the lead in beating Mr. Leonard, causing him to break his ribs. ”
Stan frowned, "Strange, this is the third time this month, why do the goblins at Gringotts keep beating people lately?" Who would dare to go to Gringotts to save money if this continues? ”
He muttered and put down the Daily Prophet and sat back next to the driver, Yrne, because Harry and Ron were still children after all, and the two dolls were already tired enough to listen to Stan's reading of the newspaper and slowly fell asleep on their feather beds.
The Knight Bus sped along, breaking away bushes, bollards at the top of the pedestrian island, phone booths, and trees. Luo Cheng ate his share of chocolate, and slowly looked at the Daily Prophet.
"We're here!"
Ern slammed on the brakes, and the knight's bus slid to a halt, and they were already at the entrance to Hogwarts, where a pair of magnificent cast-iron gates were in front of them, lined with stone pillars, and winged boars at the pre-ends.
"It's time for us to get off, boys."
Luo Cheng shakes Harry Potter and Ron awake and then gets down the steps of the car, where Stan helps with their luggage and owl cage on the ground.
"Goodbye sir."
Harry brushed his hair, inadvertently revealing the lightning scar on his forehead.
"Oh my God!"
Stan noticed Harry's scar, "You're Harry Potter?" ”
Harry nodded.
Stan exclaims happily, "Erne! Ernne! Guess who the guy just got in our car? Ernne! He's Harry Potter! I can see his scars! ”
"Yes Stan, he's Harry Potter, remember to keep it a secret, after all, it's not a glorious thing to not catch the express train."
After Luo Cheng finished speaking, he instructed Ron and Harry to enter the school gate.
"Hurry up, boys, I think we're still a little late, and if we slow down, we won't be able to catch the meal!"
