"Well, I promised......" Lockhart said dryly.

"Thank you, Gildero, thank you......" Narcissa kissed the back of Lockhart's hand with her lips excitedly, tears in her eyes again.

"Get ready, Narcissa. Snape said gloomily.

Narcissa hurriedly grabbed Lockhart's arm with her hand, and Snape began to speak.

"Gildero, will you look after her son, Draco, as he tries to fulfill the Dark Lord's wishes?"

"I do. Lockhart said, "I'd like to be a ghost."

A thin, dazzling tongue of fire erupted from Snape's wand like a red, hot wire wrapped around their two hands.

"Will you do the best you can to protect him from harm?" said Snape in a low voice.

"I do. Lockhart said his mind was now in a mess.

A second tongue of fire erupted from the wand, intertwining with the first, forming a thin, red-glowing chain.

"And, if necessary...... If Draco fails...... Snape continued unceremoniously, "are you willing to cooperate with my plan and continue to assassinate Albus Dumbledore." ”

"I do. Lockhart could only trust Snape to give him an account for now.

Lockhart and Narcissa's faces were flushed with the light of the third tongue of fire, which erupted from their wands and intertwined with the two in front of them, wrapped tightly around their two hands like a rope, like a fire-breathing snake.

――

"Severus, what did you mean by that?" Lockhart asked angrily at the Order of the Phoenix headquarters, "Am I really going to assassinate Dumbledore?"

"What?" said the Chinese porcelain that Cyris was holding fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

"Stupid. Snape spat out a word, "Didn't you notice that I made you swear to Narcissa, not me and Narcissa or I swore to you." ”

Lockhart slapped the table hard, "So, you dodged an unforgivable oath yourself, I'm going to assassinate Dumbledore!?"

"What are you talking about!" Cyris looked horrified, as if he didn't know the two men.

"The last oath is for you to cooperate with my plan and not Draco's plan to assassinate Dumbledore, and what if I didn't have a plan to assassinate Dumbledore?" Snape looked at Lockhart coldly, "I'm not bound by the oath. ”

Lockhart thought about it, and it seemed so.

"So, if you help take care of Draco Malfoy, you're not breaking your oath. ”

Sires shuddered and took out his wand and pointed it at Lockhart, repeating, "What are you talking about!"

"Well, despite that, I'm still angry! Lockhart said dissatisfied, then waved his hand to restore the porcelain on the ground to its original state, and looked at Cyreth, "Don't be nervous, it's okay." ”

"If you weren't in the middle of the world when you were younger, would people think of asking you for help?" said Snape, scoffing.

"People don't be coquettish boys!" said Lockhart indignantly, "but you, Severus, you never touch women, are you gay?" ”

"You can't take care of it!" Snape almost tried to pull out his wand and point at Lockhart with Siris.

"You always feel like you're living in dire straits, not because no one likes you, but because you think the world is hell yourself!" Lockhart said loudly to reveal Snape's scars, "It's time to forget about the past and start living again, Severus." ”

"Hmph......" Snape turned away impatiently.

"What's going on?" said Cyrus' wand to Lockhart.

"It's nothing, Lucius Malfoy's wife asked me to help his son assassinate Dumbledore......" Lockhart reluctantly motioned for him to put down his wand, "she didn't know I was a member of the Order of the Phoenix." ”

"You'll have to sue Dumbledore right away!" Cyreus lowered his wand in shock, for a moment he thought Snape had rebelled against Lockhart.

"I will. Lockhart shrugged.

――

Somehow, he made the first unbreakable oath in his life, and although it was not dangerous, it still made Lockhart feel very unhappy, and he didn't go out to play the next day until Dumbledore came to the headquarters to look for him.

"Gidero, I'm glad to see you're safe and sound. ”

"Rejoice that you are safe and sound!" Lockhart told Dumbledore about the assassination, "what are you going to do?"

"Haha," Dumbledore laughed so hard that his beard was blowing, "don't worry, I know, I won't wait for that kid to kill me, now we're going to pick up Harry, and besides, find someone......"

"Pick up Harry?" asked Cyrith Black, puzzled, "He didn't stay there well, after all, he was protected by blood magic. ”

"Yes, but he's starting school, and I don't have time on the day of school, so I'm going to pick him up early...... Dumbledore explained, "Of course, the most important thing is that I'm going to let Harry complete a mission. ”

"Come back and let him live here?" said Cyreth expectantly.

"I think Harry would have a great time with his friends...... Dumbledore said, "of course, you can pick him up if he wants." ”

"Forget it," said Cyris helplessly, "I think his friend is much more interesting than I am, a bad old man." ”

"You're a bad old man, what is that guy who's a hundred years older than you......" Dumbledore rolled his eyes in a rare way, "Gildero, grab my hand." ”

With a slight discomfort, they came to the street where Harry lived.

"First of all, let's pay a visit to Mrs. Lower Feige. Dumbledore said, "She's worked hard to protect Harry for years. ”

Lockhart, of course, was okay: "Okay. ”

The two knocked on Mrs. Figg's door, and the woman was surprised to see Dumbledore.

"Good evening, Mrs. Fig. Dumbledore said politely.

"Professor Dumbledore!Gildero!" said Mrs. Figg in surprise.

"Good evening, Mrs. Fig. Lockhart had no choice but to say hello.

"Come in......," said Mrs. Feige, back to the door.

"No, we're just coming to see you, and we'll pick up Harry right away. Dumbledore smiled and refused, pulling out an envelope, "This is a thank you for your work this year." ”

"Oh...... You're so polite. Mrs. Figg took the envelope, and it was just the salary.

Lockhart also felt that it was difficult to be empty-handed, so he picked out some random Chinese purchases from his bag and gave them to Mrs. Feige as a gift. "My trip to China is really quite willful, and I must have added a lot of work to you, I'm really sorry. ”

"No, no, no, no. Mrs. Feige shook her hand repeatedly.

"All right, Mrs. Fig, you can rest now. Dumbledore said, "Now, Harry is up to us. ”

"All right, all right, you can go quickly...... "Mrs. Figg nodded.
