Chapter 233: Harry's Birthday

"It's Gildero's bad, but it's Harry's birthday, Jasmine. Blake frowned and emphasized, "Seventeenth birthday." ”

"Gildero, I never thought you were such a person! Don't you think your 'fraternity' is a bit too much--how are you responsible for Hermione?can you marry her?can you take her to meet your parents?you can't give her anything, but you'd rather pit her than let go!" How could Harry's seventeenth birthday be compared to the lifelong happiness of a good girl, Mrs. Weasley didn't listen to dissuasion, and roared at Lockhart like a calf beast. "I treat Hermione as a daughter, it doesn't matter whose little girl you cheat, you just don't want to pit Hermione!"

"Jasmine!" Moody couldn't take it anymore and tried to stop her ruining behavior, but his old credentials were completely useless in front of Mrs. Weasley, who had never been an Auror, and he was clearly ignored.

"Don't say it!" Hermione cried out at once, "Thank you for your concern, Aunt Jasmine...... But I'm not your daughter!--please leave this alone!"

"Mom, don't say it!" Ginny stood up and pressed her mother down, "Professor Lockhart is such a good person, I want to be his lover, what's wrong with Hermione being with him." It is much better for a professor to associate with two people at the same time than someone who likes the new and hates the old, and who turns his face ruthlessly. ”

Harry bowed his head......

"Shut up, too! I really don't understand what is going on in the minds of young girls of your age, and your values have been distorted by Gildero's class!"

"The professor doesn't talk about this ......in class," Harry argued quietly.

"Alright, Jasmine, it's Harry's birthday!" Arthur finally couldn't sit still, and used the authority of the head of the house with a straight face. "Sit down and eat well!"

Mrs. Weasley and Pandora had a temper and were very aggressive, but they listened to her man, and although they were still angry, they sat down. "Gildero, I didn't expect you to be such a scumbag, I don't want you to show up at Bill's wedding, you're going to cast a shadow on their marriage!"

"Mom, this is my wedding!" Fleur objected in broken English, displeased. "Professor Lockhart, you must come to my wedding, and if you don't come, Bill and I will be waiting for you. ”

"Ahem, okay, I'll come......" Lockhart was sprayed with dust, and he couldn't tell the difference between the east and the west, the key was that he didn't have any position to refute, so he could only nod his head again and again.

Mrs. Weasley tried to say something, but seemed to be stopped by her husband, and stopped talking. Hermione was on the table, still sobbing, and Lockhart reached out and stroked her back, reassuring her before she looked up with red eyes.

Moody shook his head, as brave as he was, and couldn't stop Jasmine from making a mess of a good meal, glared at Lockhart, and opened his mouth to change the subject. "Gildero, that werewolf a few days ago, was the capture process smooth? ”

"Ah...... It's quite smooth, no one was hurt. Lockhart was a little confused, and it took him a long time to react. "It was discovered that the Death Eaters had killed some Muggles, and it seemed that they were going to make a large number of corpses out of corpses, and now the Ministry of Magic has stationed strikers in areas with a high incidence of missing persons. ”

"Yin corpse?" Blake asked suspiciously, "Why does the mysterious man want this, he can't kill Dumbledore even if he turns all the people of England into Yin corpses." ”

There was silence, the atmosphere at the table was a little stiff, and Mrs. Weasley probably regretted that it was not the right time to go crazy, so she consciously got up and left the dining room, so that the atmosphere in the room was a little more normal.

――

Arthur and the others began to discuss Bill and Fleur's wedding over two days, and of course the baby in Tonks' womb, while the other big men of the Order of the Phoenix were discussing what the Yin Corpse could use.

"I don't think the Death Eaters made corpses to make corpses. Lupin pondered carefully and dismissed Lockhart's conjecture, "It's probably some kind of evil dark magic or ritual that requires a corpse to perform." ”

"I've looked up a lot of books about the Dark Arts at the Ministry of Magic, Remus, and no Dark Arts requires a lot of Muggle corpses. Lockhart said as he stroked Crookshan, which had jumped onto his lap. Like its owner, Hermione, the big cat with raccoon blood was so smart that it could even see that Lockhart would be its own man in the future, so it was determined to use his thighs and under his chair as his preferred place of coquettishness and rest.

"Is it possible that they were just going to dispose of the corpse and then you caught it before they could do anything?" After Harry joined the Order of the Phoenix, he was finally able to join their conversation without any surprise, and he was so excited about it that he forgot about the incident for a while.

"Harry, you still don't have any life experience. Moody shook his head, "If the Death Eaters were just there to cause panic, they would have left the corpse beneath the Dark Mark for those who came after them to see, and disposing of the corpse would be a superfluous move." - Gildero, the day you captured Greyback, they didn't leave a mark of the Dark Devil in the sky. ”

"Absolutely not, it was so dark that I could barely see a figure that night, and if any magic mark appeared in the air, it would be very obvious. Lockhart shook his head, "And one more thing, it's enough to dispose of a corpse with a single magic, you don't need to run a few streets with the corpse at all." ”

Moody pondered for a moment, then suddenly became a little nervous: "There must be a demon when things go wrong, there must be some big plan over there, Mondongues! Have you heard that the Death Eaters are going to do something big recently." ”

Mundungus was muttering to his twin brother again, preparing to sell some new magical items, when he turned his head when Moody called him. "No, there are no rumors about the corpse you are talking about, and it seems that the secrecy is doing a good job. ”

"Forget it, it's Harry's adult birthday, we're still going to have a drink, and I'll ask Dumbledore and Snape when I go back. The more Moody thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and finally gave up thinking. "Harry, next semester, you have to study hard, the Auror department is very short of people, as long as you pass all the courses, I guarantee you get the Auror certificate...... And the Glen...... Hermione, so are you!"

"Oh...... Thank you. Hermione said sadly that she had been trying to forget that she was a third party and imagined that she was Lockhart's only, legitimate girlfriend. But when Mrs. Weasley mentions her, she is beaten back to her original form and has to face this fact that she can't accept.

Lockhart reluctantly grabbed one of Hermione's hands and comforted her with practical actions. He knew that Hermione had no contact with the cruel and absurd reality at all. Her emotional world is immature, she has few friends, and as the first person she falls in love with, she easily occupies almost all her love and trust, and Hermione almost treats herself as her whole world.

But she had to share the world with another girl she didn't like, and she was even technically a third person, which made this simple little girl feel as uncomfortable as being abandoned by the world.

To be honest, Hermione is pitiful now, with her eyelashes hanging and her mouth pursed, as if her grandmother is not kissing, her uncle is not loving, and her expression is abandoned by everyone, which is very ...... A bowl of cherries. But no matter how asshole and perverted Lockhart is, he also knows that this is not the time to appreciate her expression, but to comfort her. In fact, it is very simple, as long as she cherishes and cherishes herself, she will naturally not be sad.

"Baby, don't care what Mrs. Weasley says, you'll always be my favorite girl......" Lockhart whispered into Hermione's ear. "It's only mine, and I can only sleep with meβ€”little lover!" said that, but it was not enough, and he blew lightly - Hermione's face immediately turned red, and her love immediately improved.

Lockhart suddenly noticed that someone was looking at him across the table, and when he looked up, it was Ginny who watched the two of them with envy as they made intimate movements. He smiled at Ginny, and Ginny smiled at Lockhart just as softly - which startled Lockhart, and the way Ginny looked at herself was exactly the same way that Hermione had looked at her before she had confirmed her relationship, and the little girl couldn't have taken a fancy to herself.

Moody snorted disdainfully, and Lupin and Blake watched with a smile as Lockhart teased Hermione, for their group of big men, no matter how abusive, lewd, and lascivious Lockhart was, no matter how many lovers there were, as comrades-in-arms, as long as they were faithful and reliable......

After Lockhart succeeded in amusing Hermione, he continued to pour wine and celebrate Harry's birthday until he was completely drunk.
