Harry Potter’s Natural Villain
Chapter 59
He saw a list of all the targets he used to cast the Forgotten Curse before, as well as their recent status, and of course their past experience of being stolen by him.
He turned faster and faster, and the pages of the book made a rattling noise, as if he wanted to use this unconscious action to eliminate his inner fear.
He was ruined and fell into the altar. Once these black histories broke out enough to make him a hero who was admired by thousands of people, he would become a bereaved dog by everyone. As for the latest heroic deeds, naturally he would not be believed, not to mention that it was itself. fake.
He turned to the last page tremblingly, and saw a sentence written in pitch black ink on it: "It's good to do it yourself." His eyes seemed to be sucked in by these words, and a majestic old man's voice was heard. The sound of thunder sounded in his ears, and some fragments of memory that had been diminished and blurred also pierced into his mind at the same time, causing waves of turmoil.
A jealous, Lockhart sitting on the bed came back to his senses, carefully thinking about the picture that appeared in his mind just now, and at the same time chewing on the words that warned him.
Lockhart thought of the bewitching notebook, and saw Dumbledore in the secret room showing off his power, as if crushing a bug to solve the basilisk with ease, seeing himself in a coma, and the one who worshiped himself Hermione, a schoolgirl, and Malfoy, a male student who gave her whiskey.
"Why would he give this credit to me?" Lockhart thought.
He remembered the abnormal enthusiasm of those reporters just now. For him, who has experienced many battles and has fought with reporters countless times, this incident is big or small, but the reporters are so abnormal that he can smell something. The breath of "conspiracy".
"That's right, that's it." Lockhart had an insight and got an explanation that he seemed to be extremely reasonable, and in fact there was indeed this part of the reason.
Dumbledore’s own prestige has reached its peak. As the greatest white magician of the world who has been famous for a long time and defeated Grindelwald, it will not surprise people at all to solve the basilisk, students and teachers will only think As it should be."Oh, the professor has solved a basilisk and the school is calm again."
But it's different if you change to yourself.
Lockhart felt more and more unfathomable than Dumbledore.
It is also about saving the world. If everyone feels that if the hero is just a small effort, the gratitude will not be so profound. On the contrary, if the hero pays a huge price for this, people's respect will be very warm.
He is the person who "sacrificed a lot" for this matter.
Dumbledore didn't know why he knew my true level. He happened to use this as an excuse to promote my achievements and give me a personal excuse to leave school.
Thinking of this, Lockhart was grateful and awed to Dumbledore.
As for why Dumbledore had to work hard to arrange this, Lockhart also thought about it. If he remembered correctly, the little girl named Hermione was a wizard of Muggle descent, and the school teacher rescued such a man regardless of her own safety. The students can set off another storm in public opinion and once again challenge the stubborn bloodlineists in the wizarding world.
The peaceful coexistence of wizards and Muggles is not only Dumbledore’s proposition, but also Lockhart's insistence. Although the former is worthy of the name, he is the most respected wizard, while the latter is just a slapstick..
Thinking of this, Lockhart more respected the old man who shared his ideals.
People who have experienced life and death think more about it. Perhaps Lockhart has suddenly opened up, and the part of the analysis actually coincides with the truth.
However, people will always subconsciously forget memories that are unfavorable to them. Lockhart obviously let go of himself as the instigator and calmly accepted the official explanation. It is possible that he is the biggest one controlled by the diary. May be ignored.
Well, maybe Professor Dumbledore moved more hands and feet in his memory.
In short, Lockhart may be interested, but he still has to look at Dumbledore's face.
At this moment, he on the stage took a step back and said to the students under the stage: "You can ask the principal to answer this question. After all, student Ron, you also said that this is just a rumor." Then he gave up his position. To Dumbledore.
"Student Ron is well informed." Dumbledore stroked his long beard and glanced at the audience.The students all showed excitement, "but." Dumbledore turned and pressed his hands down: "You seem to have made a mistake. Some magical creatures are more terrifying than the basilisk." Dumbledore The amiable tone before became serious.
The students then remembered that the basilisk is one of the magical creatures. Maybe they need to be able to ensure their safety, and the teachers can't be too weak. The students again bowed their heads in disappointment.
But then Dumbledore sold it.He went on to say: "Indeed, your magical biology teacher will retire in the third grade next year. He is older and needs more time to continue to accompany his cute little guys." Dumbledore paused. After a while, he helped the already crooked glasses."So you will welcome a new teacher next semester. It is likely to be someone you are familiar with. Please rest assured and wait."
Hearing this, Ron had no choice but to sit back on the stool.
Harry also made a disappointed look and thumped the table in front of him.
Obviously, the scene where Snape’s old bat was beaten up will never be seen again. They actually still retain some hope. Maybe one day Lockhart teaches and teaches, the mana will be restored, and the officer can restore it. Job".This is also more convenient.
To get back to the point, Lockhart continued to start his "Heroic Deeds Report". With what he believed to be Dumbledore's acquiescence, Lockhart did his best to exaggerate things, which attracted the applause of the students. , Hermione was standing beside him, but she felt irritated and unreasonably disgusted.
Under the cheers, there were also some discordant voices. They came from the position of Slytherin College. When Lockhart talked about the so-called "", applause and shouts came from other places. What came from the side were booze and boos.
"Speaking so badly, who is it that has lost all mana now?" They talked.
"It's really a shame. Sacrificing one's own future to save a Mudblood." Such a voice is smaller, but not a lot.
Dumbledore gave Snape a wink, so Snape waved his generous robe to signal that his students were enough.
The dining table is still noisy. Who doesn’t know Snape’s preference for this college. It’s still too early to stop him from being really angry. Maybe Snape wanted them to do this in his heart, so that he could report his defeat. shame.
Most Slytherin students think so.
Pansy sat next to Malfoy and did not participate in any booing just now. She looked at him quietly, fearing that his emotions would have some deeper fluctuations, because today's party did not seem very pleasant, the more praised it. The merits of the "hero", the more pitiful the villain who was trampled underfoot.
"Enough." Malfoy slapped the table, and Pansy jumped. When she thought he was going to run away, Malfoy said something.
"If the trouble goes on, the principal won't let Professor Snape remind us again. If you lose, you lose. It's not a good habit to slander others behind your back. All we need to do is win back next time." Malfoy used his own micro The unsearchable voice uttered this sentence, but it happened to be in the ears of every Slytherin student. After hearing the words, the senior students looked at him with admiration, not because they made sense, but because of it. It seems to be a new kind of magic.
Although it was a glorious defeat, Malfoy's reputation in the academy was unprecedentedly high, and most people chose to follow his arrangements. In contrast, Malfoy's words were more useful than their dean.
Looking at the eloquent Lockhart on the stage, Malfoy just sighed.
