"Ginny seems to have a crush on you. Snape was gone, and Hermione could finally frown at will, "What's going on...... The way she sees you, the way she looks when she sees Harry!"

"Isn't it...... Lockhart said weakly, "maybe she's addicted to my bloodsucking, or maybe I'm too handsome when I'm reborn?"

"Don't talk nonsense, Ginny isn't that superficial!" Hermione said angrily, "I confided in her when I had a crush on you when I was a child, and she talked with me about how to get you to notice me - or get Harry to notice her...... As a result, I'm still trying to get close to you, and you're somehow getting along with Fudge!" Hermione became angry when she thought of this, and her eyes turned red with grievance: "She also said that she would never like someone who has a girlfriend." ”

"Well, that's good, you see I'm a wife now......" Lockhart put his arm around her. "It's even less likely that she'll like me. ”

"Don't get away from it," Hermione pushed his arm away, "it must be that when you suck blood, it affects people's minds, don't touch Ginny again!"

"No, ......no," Lohar nodded, "I can't control my body well yet, so in a few days, we'll go to Hagrid and ask if there's a pregnant unicorn." Before that, you can ask Ginny to get you some library books to read and pass the time, or you want to talk to me-"

"Hmph, I'll ask Ginny to bring me some books next time. ”

Lockhart spent a few days recuperating at Hogwarts, during which time he would run out at night every day to attack the students, and although he could theoretically last a few weeks without sucking blood, that would make him look terrible, and his strength would decrease as he lasted longer.

The most troublesome thing is that sucking blood is as addictive as taking drugs, and he is now uncomfortable without sucking blood for a day. And the air in Hogwarts is full of "pure girl's body fragrance", and this huge temptation makes him have no self-control.

――

With nothing to do, Lockhart stayed in the Room of Requirement and made some contact notes, mainly for Snape and Aberforth and the others, and after a few days of staying like this, they decided to go and see Hagrid.

It was class time when he came out in the cloak of invisibility, and there was no one on the road, and although the Death Eaters were extremely strict with Hogwarts, at least one person welcomed this policy with their hands raised - witnessing Voldemort's resurrection, the occupation of Hogwarts, the change of the wizarding world, and other major events, and the wind and waves came. Filch, who didn't capsize in the "gutter".

Few of the students got into trouble, as the "mischievous" students were either severely punished by the Death Eaters or captured as test subjects for the next Dark Arts class - even the supposedly brave Gryffindors were unwilling to suffer senselessly.

It was too easy to deal with Falch, and after a confusion spell, he obediently opened the side door of the castle for the two of them.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Hagrid!" the Cloak of Invisibility was a little small, and Hermione was a little excited, accidentally revealing her feet, but fortunately she had already left the castle at Hogwarts by this time. Walking outside on the grass, she felt as relaxed as she had been when she first set out on the path to Hagrid's hut six years ago.

She suddenly remembered that the first time Lockhart took the initiative to make physical contact with her was in this place five years ago. That time she was called a "mudblood" by Malfoy. Then, on the way to Hagrid's cabin, he met Professor Lockhart, who had just arrived at the school to teach. He tapped himself on the shoulder and told himself that pure-blood wizards were shit...... Hermione remembered sweetly, turning her head to look at her husband beside her. If it weren't for the fact that the two of them were next to each other, it would almost feel unreal.

"Hagrid is pretty moist here, as long as you don't do anything stupid. The Death Eaters don't care about him......" Lockhart didn't realize that his wife next to him was reminiscing about a lot of old things in a matter of seconds.

"Why, Ginny said that Hagrid was often bullied, but he didn't dare to take out his wand and resist...... Hermione said with a grudge, "because Hagrid's wand was not registered with the Ministry of Magic, and he was framed more than fifty years ago and disqualified from using his wand." ”

"Well, hopefully it's almost over. Lockhart sighed. "I'll get Scrimgeour back to Hagrid's staff. ”

Hagrid's cottage soon came into view, the conical roof and chimney and the stone steps leading to the front door, which looked like nothing had changed, but still something strange...... The land where fruits and vegetables had been planted in front of and behind the house was deserted, and the walls of the hut looked very dirty...... The door, which had never been closed during the day, was also closed.

Lockhart put his arm around Hermione's shoulders, and the two of them quietly approached the door of the room under the invisibility cloak, then leaned on the door and gently knocked on the door panel a few times.

There was no response, and there was no movement in the room.

Not daring to call him out loud, Lockhart pulled out a note and contacted Hagrid.

――

"You're here!" there was a noise in the room, and a few seconds later Hagrid opened the door, and the huge body of the half-giant, who had not been seen for a long time, blocked the door, and he looked full of excitement. "I thought it was—"

"Let's go in first, Hagrid. Hermione whispered. "Aren't you afraid of being suspicious when you stand at the door and talk to the air!"

"Oh, yes, come in......" Hagrid moved away.

After the two entered the house, they ripped off the cloaks of invisibility.

"Gildero!" Hagrid gave Lockhart a powerful hug as he came up, and Rao was so strong that he couldn't bear it. "Aren't you dead, what's going on?"

"How can you curse people to death when you come up......" Hermione was disgusted and hugged as well, but fortunately Hagrid controlled his strength under Lockhart's reminder and didn't hurt her. "Gildelow never died, he just hid!"

"Oh, well, it's well hidden, even the note has been dead for two months!" Hagrid said excitedly, "God, I was horrified when the newspapers said you were being rounded up, and the Order of the Phoenix basically wouldn't be able to function without you - uh, I almost forgot, congratulations, Hermione, Mrs. Lockhart now." ”

"Thank you. Hermione said happily that she liked to be called Mrs. Lockhart.

"How can it be so exaggerated," Lockhart shook his head, "After Dumbledore's death, I didn't let the Order of the Phoenix play its role in resisting the forces of the Mysteries, mainly because I didn't have the experience of leaders, and the members of the Order of the Phoenix were relatively closely targeted......"

"Well, what's your plan for now?" Hagrid asked, rubbing his hands.

"Not yet, wait until I discuss it with Scrimgeour and them......" Lockhart found a place to sit down in the room, and the big dog rubbed over excitedly when he saw an acquaintance he hadn't seen for a long time, and Hermione stroked its head with a smile. "Your house...... Why are there so many things missing, those magical creatures? And what's going on on your face?"

"Hey, those Death Eaters. Hagrid said helplessly, "I didn't dare to fight back, I couldn't take good care of these little things, so I had to release them all." "Then they couldn't toss the little ones, and turned the finger on me—I could have knocked them down with one punch, if I hadn't wanted to stay in the school to protect Ginny and them...... I've already started with them. ”

"Sane thing, Hagrid. Lockhart said approvingly, "I'm here to ask about unicorns, you know the distribution of unicorns in the Forbidden Forest...... And are there any unicorns pregnant?"

"Why are you asking this, does it have anything to do with the mystery man?" Hagrid asked, confused, "There's really a unicorn pregnant, but it's well protected by her husband and the horses, what are you going to do?"

"Hermione suspects that the blood of the pregnant unicorn will have some special effect and will help cure my ailment...... "Lockhart said, "and as for the protection of centaurs and male unicorns, it is just a lack to me." ”

"Gildero's sick, what's the disease, does it matter?" Hagrid looked him up and down a little nervously, "Hey, I suddenly think you're a lot younger, is it my delusion?"

"Gilderoy has always been young," Hermione said with a laugh, as she and Ginny had been told that Snape was undercover and that there was no room for a resurrection. "His illness isn't a big deal, it's just trouble, and it needs unicorn blood without a curse to cure it completely. ”

"That's right...... Gildelow seems to have asked me about it a long time ago, could it be that you were already ill by then?" Hagrid asked uneasily, "You said earlier, I thought you just asked casually, and didn't pay attention to you......"
