Chapter 151: Almighty Divination!
Seeing the happy faces of Ron's parents, Harry felt that it was not good for him to deceive others.
But thinking that if Ginny got the consequences of this notebook, that he would be able to save Ginny by stopping this kind of thing from happening, and that he should have done them a great favor, he threw away that little bit of guilt.
Harry and Hermione walked away, and casually tossed the pile of books into the corner.
"What are you doing here, why did you throw them away, didn't you say these books had to be returned?" Hermione said angrily, not understanding why Harry had done this.
"Do you think they'll care about the books? I bet even if I gave Ron back the books, he'd throw them away right away. ”
Hermione was silent, as she felt as if Harry was right.
Hermione shook her head, putting the irrelevant thing aside before she thought of the point.
"Are you for this black book, what the hell is it?" Hermione pointed to the only old book in Harry's hand, a thick black notebook.
"See for yourself. Harry threw it at her.
Hermione, curious, immediately flipped through it, flipped through it, and found nothing out of the ordinary, just a crumpled ordinary notebook with nothing in it.
Hermione frowned, but she didn't give up, and opened it again.
Harry closed the book from her hand and said, "I'll tell you later, let's finish buying the book and leave." ”
The bookstore was very crowded, and there were so many people in the already small space.
Most of these people were witches the age of Ron's mother.
An embarrassed-looking male bookstore employee stood at the door and said, "Be quiet, ladies please...... Don't crowd each other...... Be careful not to stain the book, ...... now"
Slowly, a long line has gracefully stretched to the back of the bookstore.
There, Gildelow Lockhart was signing his autobiography non-stop. Each of them took a copy of "How to Deal with Female Goblins".
"Ah, what a coincidence, you're here too. The wives were talking to each other.
Although they were crowded as if they were out of breath, they still stroked their hair from time to time.
"We'll see him soon......"
Gildelow Lockhart walked in slowly, seated at a table with posters plastered all over the floor, showing Gildelow Lockhart winking at the crowd, snow-white teeth shining brightly in the flashlight.
Lockhart was dressed in a blue magic robe, the color of which matched the color of his eyes. His pointy wizard hat rested on his well-groomed, wavy hair.
Although Lockhart is a complete badass, Harry has to admit that he still looks good.
A not-so-good-tempered man takes a black camera to the left and right, and after each glare of the flash, the camera always shoots out a puff of purple smoke.
"Jean, Jean!" he shouted at several women who were blocking his view.
He jumped back, found a better spot to take the photo, and muttered, "This is for the Daily Prophet!"
In the center of the crowd, Lockhart loosened his collar around his neck and smiled kindly: "Welcome to my new book signing......"
Harry didn't know whether to scold the housewives for being stupid or to praise his own eyes.
He could clearly perceive irritability and disgust in the eyes of the gentle-looking man, and these emotions were directed at the women who surrounded him.
After a quick pick-up, "Let's go." "Harry didn't want to stay here anymore when he saw what Lockhart was like.
"Hey, why didn't you buy Lockhart's book, it's the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor's book. ”
"It's useless, but ...... It's still good as a novel. ”
Noticing that Lockhart was looking around, Harry quickly turned sideways.
In his opinion, Lockhart is just a piece of shit, and it is a disgusting thing to step on or not to step on, and it is most correct to see the one who is far away.
Anyway, when he got to Hogwarts, Harry was sure that the mischievous kids and professors would give him good looks.
Harry pulled Hermione out of the Blotted bookstore.
Lockhart glanced at the backs of the two children at the doorway, puzzled.
Why did you just see one of them like the famous Harry Potter?
If it's really Harry Potter, then I must take a picture with him, saying that he is also a fan of his books. His gold content is countless times that of the group of housewives in front of him, and his identity can be more respected, but unfortunately this can only be thought about...... Lockhart thought regretfully.
However, it is not without any chances, as long as you enter Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, you can not only bring the title of Savior Harry Potter teacher, but also have an extra layer of aura on your body.
Just how to fool around at school? When I thought about seeing the invitation to Hogwarts, I was only thinking about how much fame I could get from it, and I immediately agreed. Now I am restless.
But after all, it was the oldest magic school, and if you miss this opportunity, you may never have a chance again......
"Mr. Lockhart?" called a reporter from the Daily Prophet.
Lockhart came back to his senses and quickly showed a smile without any dead ends.
"Click, click......" The sound of the camera continued again.
As Harry and Hermione walked out, a voice could be heard throughout Diagon Alley: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am honored and proud to announce that at the invitation of Headmaster Dumbledore, the greatest wizard of all time, I will be inaugurated at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as their new teacher for Defence Against the Dark Arts this September......"
"What?" Hermione couldn't help but look at the pile of books she had just bought, it turned out that the books needed for Defence Against the Dark Arts class were his own.
"What do you think of our new teacher?" asked Harry.
Hermione pondered for a moment: "Although he looks very polite and has an amiable smile, ...... I think...... I can't put it into words, it's a little annoying......"
Hermione stuck out her tongue.
"It seems that after being with me for a long time, your intelligence has improved significantly. Harry said with some smugness.
"What do you mean by that?" asked Hermione.
Harry had no intention of hiding anything, he didn't care about any of them, except for where he came from, even after all the future events were said, Harry didn't mind. There just wasn't a suitable audience, and Dumbledore wasn't a good fit.
He pointed to Lockhart's impressive series of adventures and said, "These stories are true, but they have nothing to do with Lockhart, he just steals the fruits of other people's labor." ”
"You're talking about these stories of destroying werewolves, dark wizards, and the protagonist is someone else. Hermione said incredulously.
But she immediately spotted the loophole: "If that's what you said, then why didn't those wizards expose Lockhart?"
"yes, why. ”
"Because Lockhart is a liar, he has a knack for forgetting that even Dumbledore is ashamed of. When he learns about these things, he uses the Amnesia Charm to amnestize the real protagonists, making them fools, and then making them his own adventures. ”
Hermione was stunned for a few minutes: "Then let's tell Dumbledore, no, we should tell the Ministry of Magic and take him to Azkaban......"
Harry said, "Don't worry, he can't run away, and before the end of the semester, he'll be sent to prison." ”
Hermione walked back and forth for a while before accepting Harry's actions.
But one thing came to her mind: "How did you know about this?"
"Huh?" inquiring eyes stared at Harry.
Harry had expected it, and said with a calm expression: "In the future, we will learn a divination class, and after I taught myself divination, I found that I am really a genius, and a new star in the divination world has risen......"
"Then I did a little bit of divination for this year's Defence Against the Dark Arts class, and I told Lockhart about it. ”
Hermione had no doubts, as an ordinary person in the past, the definition of such an ethereal thing as divination was to know astronomy and geography, the past and the future, prophecy, foresight, power, and mystery.
She just wanted to learn the course of divination quickly, and it was really amazing and curious.
However, I believe that when Hermione begins to learn divination, she will know that divination is not so powerful at all, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a deception, and there can be dozens of explanations for the same divination.
Harry saw that Hermione did not doubt it, and sighed in his heart, divination is really omnipotent, anything can be pushed to it, why didn't he think of it earlier.
