Harry Potter's Catastrophe - Chapter 466
c466 : Let me test it myself and see for you
It was really annoying. He learned from the first-year guys that in the original book, Harry and Ron received two hundred points each for killing the basilisk.
But the reality is that they didn’t add that many points. It’s okay if they don’t know, and they’ll be even more angry when they find out.
Feeling something covering his clear sunlight, he opened his eyes to see a smiling Gilderoy Lockhart.
“Kearney, alone?” Lockhart smiled very kindly. Carney noticed that Lockhart had brought a plate of fresh beef, specially cut into small pieces.
“Professor, what’s the matter?” Carney stood up and looked at Lockhart doubtfully.
What is this guy going to do, feed me raw meat? Is the meat poisonous?
“I’m not doubting you. I have a skeptical attitude. Come on, beautiful little guy. This is all prepared for you.” Halfway through Lockhart’s words, he saw Xiao Hei who was attracted by the fresh beef and handed the plate over.
“What?”
“The secret method of thunder and lightning. After seeing your power that night, I believed most of it, so I asked you again to confirm.” Professor Lockhart said.
“Of course.” Carney looked at Lockhart with fiery eyes. He thought of a way to make Lockhart no longer able to teach.
“I can test it for you personally, but I want to learn a magic from you.” Carney rolled his eyes. The Forgetting Curse is not in the course yet. Although he can do it a little, it is not as good as Lockhart, the master of the Forgetting Curse. Not even close.
He could forget things that others experienced so long ago, otherwise the people involved in the story would have come to Lockhart, if Lockhart had simply forgotten the memory of his visit.
“Oh, of course, this is what I do as a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.” Lockhart said confidently, “What do you want to learn?”
“The Forgetting Curse.” Carney said.
“You actually want to learn this, do you want to do something bad?” Lockhart showed an expression that all men understand.
“I am also a student. It’s okay. It’s all on me.” Lockhart explained what his lewd smile meant.
“No problem, I learn quickly, just spend the weekend.” Carney said. “You also need to make some preparations. Thunder and lightning need to be guided, which is safer.”
“That’s great, what do you need to prepare?” Lockhart said.
“Earplugs, earmuffs, eye masks, the ones with the best protective effect, and an iron rod.” Carney thought.
“I made a note of it. Let’s get ready now.” After speaking, Lockhart hurriedly turned around and left.
Lockhart is really good at forgetting spells. Carney practiced it for a week and was able to make Yaya forget the bad things Carney had done to him in the past.
He didn’t hide away when he saw some weird things. Hagrid also got a crystal ball, which was really good for carrying Yaya with him, but not Lu Wei.
Lu Wei was finally released back into the Forbidden Forest. It was indeed scary to see such a large dog, but it was not vicious.
It was probably his duty to guard the entrance when he was on the trap door, so he looked particularly fierce at that time.
“When can we start?” Lockhart approached Carney and asked. It had been several weeks, but Carney had not said anything.
“We need a thunder and lightning weather.” Carney can’t trigger the thunder himself. If Xiao Hei comes, the principal will not allow it. Maybe the blame for Lockhart being maimed will be attributed to him.
It was better to let Lockhart look for thunder and lightning on his own. For this reason, Lockhart went to the astronomy professor to ask her when there would be thunderstorms when classes started.
The professor of astronomy said earnestly that his major was wrong, but she didn’t know. She was looking at astronomy, not the weather.
“Lockhart has been so weird lately. He doesn’t ask Harry to perform on stage anymore. He looks at the sky on the balcony every day. Is he suffering from delusion?” Ron said, “But what he said is still useless. I I dare say he didn’t contribute before.”
“Whatever, I can still relax. I hope his condition is serious so he doesn’t have to go to class.” Harry said.
“Hey, I’m telling you…” Carney asked Harry and Ron to put their ears closer and whispered to them how to tease Lockhart.
“Oh oh oh, that’s it!” Ron’s eyes lit up, “This is wonderful.”
“Wouldn’t this be good?” Harry hesitated.
“It’s okay. I’ve checked the information. Ordinary thunder and lightning won’t do much harm to wizards. Besides, whether he dares to attack or not is still one thing.”
“Just do it.” George and Fred suddenly came over, “We will bring Colin’s camera and witness this moment together.”
“What are you discussing again? Gryffindor’s points are very tense now. Don’t stop deducting points.” Hermione rolled her eyes. They must be planning to do something bad.
Their few students were not enough, they had to find some adults. Hagrid was one, but it would not be credible if he was Lockhart who was struck by lightning voluntarily.
“Professor, there is something that I wonder if you are interested in.” Carney found Professor Snape.
“Stellan, ah, I forgot that there are two Stellans. Have you figured out how to deduct points for the academy?” Although the two Stellans are the same, there is still a difference in height, and there is also a sense of aloofness. temperament.
“It’s Professor Lockhart. He wants to defeat lightning and prepare for his new book. He wants some witnesses and some security personnel. You are the most powerful in Hogwarts.” Carney said, discarding his conscience.
“I don’t have the time to watch the clown show.” Snape was completely uninterested. Was he protecting Lockhart? He thought beautiful.
“I just ensure that he can be rescued if something unexpected happens after he is struck by lightning. As a colleague, the professor should agree to Professor Lockhart’s request.”
“Think about it.”
“As the most powerful wizard in the school besides Dumbledore, there is no other choice but you,” Carney said.
“I hope you said the same thing when your Headmaster was here.” Snape actually wanted to see what the frog looked like after being struck by lightning, but it would be too shameful for him to go to Carney just to find him. .
“Then I can only tell Professor Lockhart to give up. Although he may not be able to write a new book, he can at least continue to teach us Defense Against the Dark Arts. If he is hospitalized, he will not be able to attend classes.” Carney was disappointed. said. “If Professor Lockhart can’t teach Defense Against the Dark Arts, there will be no professor left.”
“Wait, when.” Snape said suddenly.
“When thunderstorms occur.” Carney said with a smile on his lips.
Snape always had trouble getting along with all the Defense Against the Dark Arts professors, especially Lockhart, who was always showing off his authority and had a self-righteous face in his clothes, which was extremely annoying.
Now that Lockhart is hospitalized, he can apply for the temporary position of Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, and maybe he can be transferred to the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor next school year.
