Chapter 143: Summer Vacation: The Blotted Bookstore

An hour later, they headed towards the Blotted bookstore. Approaching the bookstore, several young wizards were surprised to find that there were a large number of people crowded outside the store, and they all wanted to enter.

But when Anthony saw the pitiful threshold, he knew it was impossible. A huge banner is posted on the window of the bookstore: Gilderoy Lockhart - autobiography for sale signed for sale - "I Can Magic"

"Gilderoy Lockhart?" Hermione's eyes suddenly lit up,

"I've been reading his book lately, and it's been wonderful, I really didn't expect that today would be the day he released his new book, I'm so lucky!"

"You still have time to read those idle books! I thought you were busy with your homework all summer! Anthony smashed his mouth and said with some unhappiness.

Don't get me wrong! He's just just a liar. Oh! Speaking of which, this year's Defence Against the Dark Arts professor is not him.

Hum! That's lucky. Hehe!

"Just to pass the time." Hermione touched her nose unconsciously, and then whispered, "But, it's really wonderful..."

"Huh!" Isn't that exciting? It's all an adventure that someone else has experienced. After glancing at Hermione's face, well- I was excited, but I wasn't that addicted, oh - by the way, something happened to Windsor during the summer vacation, and there must have been a lot of changes in the original story.

Presumably, Hermione had just started to see the liar, so she hadn't gotten to the point of being obsessed. - Immediately after, they went with the flow, following the group of 'middle-aged women' to squeeze in.

I have to say that Lockhart is still very successful as a writer, after all, having a story and being able to write it are completely different things.

He was able to attract so many people, especially a middle-aged woman of Ron's mother's age, which was indeed a skill.

Of course, this may have something to do with the lack of literature in the wizarding world. Magician, know ghost literature!

It was very similar to the story that happened in the original book, the greasy smile on his face, dressed like a flower butterfly, the moment he saw Harry, like a shark asking about the smell of blood, he walked straight over, grabbed Harry's arm and made a few poses.

"Harry Potter!" The flash flashed blindly, and a puff of purple smoke spread throughout the bookstore.

There were screams in the crowd, and they talked excitedly. It wasn't until Harry was almost blinded by the flash that Lockhart let go.

After a burst of business blowing each other. Announced that all of his writings would be given to him for free.

"Who wants his books!" Ron looked at the greasy man with an unhappy expression. He always thought the guy was smiling fakely.

"People are also kind, besides, they just gave so many books for free and took a few photos, and Harry didn't lose anything." Hermione didn't feel anything.

She took the stack of books from Harry's hand, and Mrs. Weasley passed by and she took them.

Turned around and squeezed into the crowd. It seems that there is a queue to sign it.

"I really don't understand why my mother likes him." Ron looked at Mrs. Weasley, who was huddled in the crowd, and said with some depression that she was more 'enthusiastic' than anyone else in the bookstore, which embarrassed him.

"That's because she hasn't seen anything greater." Anthony said lightly.

"If you've had a meal, it's hard to snacking." It's time for these wizards to see what it means to be a pioneer of fantasy stories.

That cliché plagiarism is hardly worth mentioning compared to a truly great work. And just when Anthony was going to send Ron a copy of The Lord of the Rings.

Behind them, there was a voice that everyone would never get wrong.

"Isn't this Harry Poult? How? Can a bookstore be the headline of tomorrow's newspaper? ”

"Cut~ Someone wants to make headlines, but they don't have the ability yet!" Ron said sarcastically.

"Malfoy." Harry looked at him as if he had seen something disgusting on the soles of his shoes, "Why do you keep bothering us?" Aren't you tired? ”

"I—" Malfoy looked disdainful and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Anthony on the side: "Hey! Can't you even see that? Harry. He stared at Malfoy with an inexplicable smile on his face,

"Malfoy must like you, right, admit it generously, we won't discriminate against you!"

"What did you say!" Malfoy blushed and was about to retort, but was silenced by Tony's voice again.

"Wow! Is that Mr. Lucius Malfoy over there? Anthony waved his hand at the blonde man outside the store and said, "Come and take care of your son, I bet, he is definitely in love with Harry, the so-called: beating is kissing and scolding is love, unless he has some kind of special, unknown fetish, otherwise it is full of love!" Lucius, who had just walked into the bookstore, was a little confused by Anthony's words!

The sarcastic sneer on his face slowly faded, and he looked down at his son.

"Shut up, mudbloods, what are you talking about! I'm going to like a man, did you leave your head at home and forget it? Malfoy, who looked at Anthony, only felt a chill, that kind of look, he was disgusted to look at.

Moreover, what is he talking nonsense. How could you like to break the special!

"Sophistry! Dissemble! Insincere! Anthony poured. Then he smiled: "Oh! My dear, how can you hide it if you like someone? Even hearing his name will make my heart tremble, not to mention, you who look at him have light in your eyes! ”

"I-you-you." Draco's face showed a hint of panic,

"Nope! I didn't! I'm just—"

"Alright, alright, I believe Malfoy, he's just shy!" Anthony said with a smile, and then changed the subject,

"It's nothing, we should leave." With that, Anthony pulled Harry to leave. He had seen Ginny and his father, Mr. Arthur, approach, and if nothing else, the scene was about to take place.

Yes, Anthony didn't intend to stop Lucius from stuffing Tom's notebook into Ginny's old book.

After all, this is the easiest way to get Horcruxes. In fact, Lucius would have given the Horcruxes to Ginny, in fact, completely to get revenge on Mr. Arthur.

Over the summer, the new Muggle Protection Act, led by Mr. Arthur, caused serious distress to Lucius.

The ministry stepped up the search for dark magic items, and if it was someone else who led the team, Lucius would have spent a few gold gallons, but if it was Arthur Weasley's team, then he wouldn't have anything he could do.

That's why they're in Tumbledown Alley, in the Boggin Bock store. The combination of the two events made Lucius feel more and more dangerous, if Voldemort's Horcrux was found by Arthur, then the Malfoy family would face a heavy blow.

That's why he chose to throw out this hot potato. That's why he chose the Weasleys and Ginny.
