Chapter 550： Lockhart

"Harry Potter: Alchemist Novel Cool Notes ( Find the latest chapter!

Late at night, the storm became more unbridled.

The lamp in Principal Hogwarts' office was still on, and Dumbledore was sitting at his desk, flipping through the latest issue of "Transfiguration Today" by candlelight.

Next to the desk, a copy of the "Daily Prophet" was spread out randomly, and the contents of the newspaper could be read clearly by candlelight:

Arthur Weasley, the director of the Department of Muggle Abuse Investigation by the Ministry of Magic, was fined fifty gallons for enchanting a Muggle car.

...

The enchanted car crashed at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. A director of the school, Mr. Lucius Malfoy, recently called and asked Mr. Weasley to resign immediately.

"Mr. Weasley destroyed the reputation of the Ministry of Magic," Malfoy told our reporter.

...

Mr. Weasley didn't respond to this from our reporter, but his wife told the reporter to leave, or she would let her ghouls out to bite them.

...

There is no doubt that Arthur Weasley was in trouble, he was targeted by a group of people.

Of course, some of Arthur's actions annoyed the pure-blood wizards headed by Malfoy.

To be honest, the Office for Prohibiting the Abuse of Muggle Items is not highly regarded in the Ministry of Magic, and Arthur's ability to obtain a warrant for a search is suspicious.

Knowing that pure-blood wizards occupy important positions in the Ministry of Magic, they cannot allow the officials of the Ministry to harass them casually.

The search warrant was obviously something that someone deliberately pushed behind.

At present, Arthur's situation is very bad. Although for some reason, he has not been expelled from the Ministry of Magic for the time being, the suspension review is still ongoing.

Many wizards who did not deal with Arthur hoped that Arthur Weasley would be expelled from the Ministry of Magic to prevent the passage of the Muggle Protection Act he drafted. Many pure-blood wizards believed that they were offended by this law. Up.

Just now, Dumbledore wrote a letter to Fudge, agreeing to temporarily delay the passage of the Muggle Protection Act, persuading the other party to let Arthur stay in the Ministry of Magic as the director of the Office of Prohibition of Muggle Abuse.

In fact, Fudge is also having a headache for this.

No wizard is willing to take over the Office of Prohibition of Muggle Abuse. The salary is average, the treatment is not high, and it is very busy. It also needs to deal with Muggles frequently. The most important thing is that there are only two wizards in this position.

Probably only weird people like Arthur would like this kind of work.

What made Dumbledore worse was actually another thing.

This morning, Dumbledore received a note from Anderson with something that Dumbledore was extremely concerned about.

Harry Potter can hear sounds that ordinary people can't hear.

This is not a good sign in the magic world.

Moreover, at the end of the note it was written: something bad may happen.

Bad things? Search Novels

Dumbledore could not judge whether these words were true or false, but it was undoubtedly not a good thing.

"Hearing a voice that no one else can hear, something bad happened?" When Dumbledore tried to connect the two things, a knock on the door suddenly sounded outside the room.

Dumbledore put down the magazine, stood up questioningly, walked over to open the door, and found that the person was Professor McGonagall.

Professor McGonagall put a document on the desk.

"What else?" Dumbledore saw that Professor McGonagall seemed to have something to say.

"I don't know if you have paid attention to Professor Lockhart." Professor McGonagall said with a hint of dissatisfaction. "He made a mess of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and many students came to us to complain about it."

In the past, after Loha's book became famous, Hogwarts professors thought they might have misunderstood him, thinking that he was contributing to the fight against dark magic.

As a result, Lockhart has only been at Hogwarts for a month, and his nature has been exposed, and everyone has seen his true face clearly.

Lockhart is still Lockhart who went to school at Hogwarts more than ten years ago. It hasn't changed at all. They have never missed him at all.

"I know that the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is hard to find, but what Professor Lockhart has done is really unbelievable." Professor McGonagall reminded, "Almost all classes, he reads the contents of the book to the students. It’s hard for me to have students perform the scenes at the time on stage. What students can learn from this vain fame-fisher."

"You can learn a lot from a bad teacher," Dumbledore said peacefully, "Don't do anything, don't be a person."

Professor McGonagall was silent. She felt that Professor Dumbledore's words did make sense, but this needed to be exchanged for the students' one-semester Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Is the price a bit high?

"I don't think you want an existence like Lockhart among your students." Dumbledore smiled. "And, I really couldn't find a suitable candidate for a while. Minerva , You should also know that since Quirrell’s death, no one wants to come to Hogwarts as a professor of defense against the dark arts. Its reputation is really terrible."

"Well, I will tell everyone what you mean." Professor McGonagall sighed and left the principal's office. He actually knew that Dumbledore could always find a way to convince himself.

Seeing Professor McGonagall's departure, Dumbledore fell into a brief silence. Since he rejected Voldemort, no Defense Against the Dark Arts professor can teach for more than a year.

Many people say that this course is cursed.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with this statement. Once or twice can be an accident...but fifty times can't be an accident.

As for what Lockhart did, Dumbledore actually knew it very early. After reading some familiar content in Lockhart’s book, he took the time to visit his former friends and noticed the other’s After forgetfulness and confusion, he realized that this was a sequelae of the powerful forgetting spell.

Lockhart is stealing the results of others.

Dumbledore didn't bother to break through the scam of the internationally renowned writer, even if he did break up Lockhart in the end, it would not make much sense.

People who have been cast a powerful Forgotten Curse, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com usually find it difficult to return to normal again. Breaking the Forgotten Curse will only make everything worse.

Of course, Dumbledore didn't intend to let Lockhart just like that. He had already thought of a way to expose the other party's deception.

That's right, as long as Lockhart is put into a normal school life, his deception will gradually be exposed.

When Lockhart was at Hogwarts, Dumbledore was already the principal of the school. He really knew the student who was hated by the professor and the students.

Therefore, Dumbledore will try his best to invite Lockhart to be a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts. It happens that this course is difficult to find a professor every year, and Dumbledore believes that the curse of Defense Against the Dark Arts can also make Lockhart suffer. .

Facts have proved that this trick is indeed very effective, and everyone has gradually seen what Lockhart is.
