The latest chapter in the Harry Potter Bastard novel

Gilderoy Lockhart, in some ways, is an amazing guy.

He is an internationally renowned figure and author, a recipient of the Order of Sir Merlin, an honorary member of the Anti-Dark Arts League, and a five-time winner of the Wizarding Weekly’s Most Charming Smile Award. Wrote a lot of books and became popular in the wizarding world. Among them are “Gilderoy Lockhart Teaches You to Get Out Family Pests”, “Gilderoy Lockhart Series”, “Break with the Female Ghost”, “Journey with the Ghoul”, “Vacation with the Doyasha”, “Walking with Trolls”, “Traveling with Vampires”, “Wandering with Werewolves”, “A Year with Tibetan Snowmen”, “I Can Enchant” and so on.

If you position him as a writer, he is undoubtedly a very successful kind of writer. He has fans all over the world, and he receives a large number of letters every day from book lovers – most of them female book fans. Sometimes Solim wondered: If Lockhart was the kind of person who likes sleeping powder, then he would definitely eat a little blue pill for a meal right now. Because his female fans are too many, and they are all brain-dead fans.

As a writer, Lockhart was naturally successful. But if he is a qualified adult wizard, this is debatable. However, Solim knew that even if Lockhart’s combat ability was not worth mentioning, his attainment in spells, especially memory magic, could be called a master.

And now this master is stopping Harry, who is preparing to go to class, and is greeting him warmly. In fact, they had already met once before school started, but it was at the Lichen Bookstore, Lockhart’s book signing.

Seeing Harry and Lockhart whispering outside the greenhouse, Draco began to viciously choreograph the two.

“Solim, you know what? Many people say that Lockhart is actually a gay,” Draco whispered to Solim, “because Lockhart has a lot of female fans, but nothing has ever been reported… You know what I mean, right? Do you say he is ready to attack Scar? At the end, Draco’s face turned red with excitement.

Opening his mouth, Solim didn’t know how to answer the words. Especially seeing Draco’s excited look… Belch~~~~~

Fortunately, Professor Sprout’s words interrupted the strange atmosphere here.

“Okay, students, before I put on the earplugs, I want to ask you a few questions.” Professor Sprout clapped his hands vigorously, telling the students in the greenhouse to focus on her instead of Lockhart outside the door, “Does anyone know what the mandrake is for?” ”

No doubt all the students in the greenhouse know what happens when a professor asks a question. Hermione raised her hand high as Professor Sprout’s words fell.

“Miss Granger.”

“Mandrake, also called mandrake root.” Hermione was like eating a book into her stomach, “It’s a very effective recovery medicine that heals curses and transfiguration damage. ”

“Good, Gryffindor plus 10 points.” Professor Sprout said, “Although mandrake is a very effective restorative agent, it is very dangerous in itself, can anyone tell me why?” ”

Hermione quickly raised her arm again, and almost knocked off Harry’s glasses who had just entered.

“The cry of a ripe mandrake is deadly. Hearing its cry kills. Hermione replied.

“Very good! Add another 10 points. Right now! Go get your earbuds. ”

The greenhouse instantly became chaotic, and everyone scrambled for the earplugs, especially the boys, because no one wanted to get the pink set, Solim didn’t move, and Draco didn’t move—Goyle and Crabbe went to get it for them. Although Solim can do without earplugs, it is too maverick to use magic spells in front of everyone.

After Professor Sprout repeatedly told him to pay attention, they finally got started. Draco took the lead in pulling out the mandrake from the pot.

Although Solim knew a lot about this plant and had seen pictures of them in books, it was the first time he had seen it alive – the mandrakes he bought last time at the “Slugjiggs Pharmacy” in Diagon Alley were ripe, and the mature mandrakes were all treated, naturally not as vibrant as the ones in front of him now.

Draco pulled out a wrinkled little man who was cursing loudly with his mouth open—but they couldn’t hear them with earplugs. Draco was interested in poking the immature mandrake root with his finger, but he was bitten without thinking, fortunately, the dragonskin gloves were not at all what the mandrake could bite, but Draco was still startled, and angrily threw the wrinkled little man into the new flower pot and began to bury it.

Solim’s side didn’t pull it out for a long time, and the soil on Draco’s side was almost buried.

“What’s going on?” Solim was muttering in his heart, “No matter how hard I try, I’m afraid I’ll lose its leaves.” ”

In the end, Solim, who really could not pull out, had to loosen the soil with a shovel, and finally dug out a very “fat” mandrake.

Solim’s one was at least twice as big as Draco’s one. In the immature mandrake, it is definitely a “giant baby”.

The situation on Solim’s side quickly caught Draco’s attention, and he looked at the big lump in Solim’s hand with wide eyes. Finally, he came over with a large flower pot and helped Solim stuff the “fat baby” into his new home.

“That’s enough,” Draco said to Solim after class, “but how could that one of yours be so big.” It’s much bigger than mine, at least twice my size. ”

At this time, the two Gryffindor girls passing by looked at Solim in amazement, and then looked at Draco with sympathetic eyes. Then covered his mouth, laughed and ran away.

Solim twitched the corner of his mouth, and hurriedly stopped Draco, who was not covered by his mouth: “What this and that, that’s called a mandrake!” Is it good to explain the white point? ”

Solim now only hopes that there will be no strange rumors in the school tomorrow, such as the “gifted” Solim and the like…

In the afternoon, they were going to take a Defense Against the Dark Arts class with Gryffindor, which was Gilderoy Lockhart’s class. Solim had no hope at all, and at lunchtime, the young wizards who were going to take Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the afternoon were talking about Lockhart’s “heroic deeds” during the meal, especially the Gryffindor girls, and their emotions were particularly excited.

“Hmph, Gilderoy Lockhart…” Draco snorted coldly in disdain, “My father said he was a liar, and Dumbledore was really confused, and he actually hired such a person to teach us.” ”

“Liar?” Silna looked at Draco suspiciously.

“That’s what my dad said,” Draco shrugged, “and he said none of Lockhart’s deeds were true.” ”

“What do you think?” Draco asked, looking at Solim.

“Anyway, it’s going to be his class soon, and you’ll know what he has at a glance.” Solim then added, “But I don’t have hope for him. Sirna, if there is anything you don’t understand academically, just ask me. ”

“Looking at you like this, that Lockhart is a straw bale.” Silna said, “It’s really unfortunate to meet such a professor at Hogwarts. ”

“I think it’s good, at least Lockhart isn’t Quirrell…”

Listening to Solim’s words, Draco instantly fell silent. He’s in the know, Quirrell… It wasn’t so much that Voldemort, a well-known dark wizard who had been their Defense Against the Dark Arts professor for a year. From this point of view, Lockhart is indeed stronger than Quirrell, isn’t it?

Just as Solim and Draco were heading to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, the corridor was blocked by a large crowd. However, two bodyguards with big waists opened the way, and Draco easily squeezed in front, and the scene he saw and heard instantly made him happy.

“Signed photo? You’re actually handing out signed photos? “Draco seized the opportunity and instantly began to attack Harry.” Everyone, come on! The famous Harry Potter is handing out his autograph photos! ”

“Nope! I didn’t! Harry clenched his fists angrily, “Shut up! Malfoy! ”

“You’re jealous!” This year’s freshman, Colin Creevey, helps his idols on the side.

“Hah! Am I jealous of him? Draco came out with a look of extreme disdain. What am I jealous of him? That scar on the head? No, I don’t need to, I don’t need to split my head, I don’t think it’s going to make you special, of course, I don’t know if other people think so. ”

Goyle and Crabbe scoffed on the side.

“Shut up! Malfoy! Ron saw his good buddy being attacked by Malfoy and immediately began to fight back.

Goyle and Crabbe stopped laughing and began pinching their thick knuckles threateningly.

Hearing Ron speak, Draco scoffed, he had long been waiting for Weasley to speak.

“Speak carefully, Weasley,” Draco smiled wickedly, “you don’t want to get into any big trouble again, do you?” Kindness? You don’t want that, do you? Then he pinched his throat and pretended to scream: “If you dare to take another wrong step!” I’ll take you home!” ”

The Slytherins on the side laughed, they loved watching Draco taunt Weasley.

“Hey! Scarhead! Weasley wants a signed picture of you, which is worth more than their house,” Draco said maliciously.
