Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs
Chapter 57: Looking through a piece of school history
But when Lu Ke thought about it carefully, he suddenly realized that this might be a very good choice.
Moreover, Lockhart had already been used by Death Eaters once, and helping Lu Ke again was the compensation a professor should make.
It’s just that what needs to be done in between requires careful planning and may be very complicated.
But a professor is inherently worth using.
What's more, Lu Ke and Lockhart actually have a tacit understanding in their hearts.
Of course, Lockhart was wary of Lu Ke and always wanted to resist.
Johanna looked at Lu Ke with a smile on her face: "Look, I just said that I can always find the best way, right?"
Lu Ke shook his head helplessly: "What do you want to do with Lockhart?"
Johanna smiled meaningfully, and then was silent for a long time.
"Actually... I can see that Lockhart really wants to curry favor with members of the Shafiq family, but I won't take advantage of him so easily."
Lu Ke sighed: "It's up to me to do this."
Johanna nodded: "I'm impressed, Lu Ke, you actually have the confidence to think that you can do a better job than me in taking advantage of others?"
Lu Ke was silent for a moment.
He thought for a moment, then looked left and right.
There were no other students around, just the two of them.
"Actually, I don't want you to become like Johanna Ogulius."
Johanna looked gloomy for a moment.
She glared at Lu Ke in silence, then turned to look in front of her.
"Are you dissatisfied with me?"
Lu Ke was silent for a moment.
"The ending of Johanna Ogulius is a tragedy. Research on ancient runes tells me that all words, especially names, always have extremely powerful magic power and can even change destiny. I don't want you to encounter that fate in the end. Kind of thing.”
Johanna turned around and glanced at Lu Ke in surprise: "Are you pitying me?"
Lu Ke shook his head: "You don't need to be pitiful."
Johanna nodded: "So you don't have to tell me such jokes in the future."
Lu Ke could only remain silent.
Very early the next morning, Lu Ke went to find Lockhart.
The great writer is dressing up.
His morning care includes a large set of complex facial care products and cosmetics, including hair. In the meantime, no free time can be wasted. Lockhart will use all of it to cultivate his perfect smile.
But Lockhart didn't mind meeting his admirers among the students.
But when he opened the door and saw Lu Ke appearing outside, Lockhart still showed a hint of surprise and reluctance.
Lu Ke walked straight into the room, then turned and looked at Lockhart.
"Professor Lockhart..."
Lockhart nodded, with a perfect smile on his face, although now that there were more than a dozen snails crawling on his face, that smile looked very scary.
Lu Ke looked calm: "I have always been curious, are there dangerous magical creatures inside Hogwarts Castle that Defense Against the Dark Arts needs to fight against?"
Lockhart glanced at Lu Ke.
Compared with his previous guess, what Lu Ke said now was very friendly. After all, when Lu Ke was the general manager of the publishing house, he was very kind to Lockhart.
"Of course there are, such as some very dangerous creatures."
Lu Ke nodded, knowing that Lockhart had thought about this issue very carefully.
"Such as snakes?"
Lockhart glanced at Lu Ke: "Ah, you mean snakes... The snakes of magical animals are not strictly considered snakes. If you said that during class, I would give Slytherin a deduction. It’s divided, Lu Ke.”
Lu Ke nodded: "Sorry, Professor, but are there really snakes living in Hogwarts? They are hiding under the noses of all professors and students, always hiding, ready to cause danger..."
"I've read all your books..."
Lu Ke was telling the truth that Lockhart knew very well. You must know that Lu Ke also served as Lockhart's editor at the publishing house. He re-edited and revised all Lockhart's books.
"I don't think Lockhart has experienced any adventures in Hogwarts... and of course he needs a very, very dangerous enemy."
Lu Ke looked at Lockhart with a dull expression.
But he knew very well that Lockhart was already tempted.
In fact, Lockhart should have thought about this matter a long time ago, but he has not been completely sure yet.
Lockhart looked at Lu Ke and nodded with a smile: "You are right, Lu Ke, then... do you know what that snake is?"
Lu Ke shook his head: "I don't know, I'm just curious. The symbol of our Slytherin is the snake. I really want to believe that there are such powerful magical creatures in the school."
Lockhart nodded: "If you ask anything, remember to tell me."
Lu Ke nodded, then turned and left Lockhart's office.
As soon as he walked out the door, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The success of this matter may already be half achieved.
Lockhart is an idol who is very motivated and knows how to keep working hard.
He is passionate about his career, which is admired by countless people, and will never give up as long as there is a clue.
Of course, Mr. Lockhart's efforts may not necessarily be in the right direction, but in the direction he chooses, Lockhart's efforts are always amazing.
Luke would wait for Lockhart to shock him again, and it wouldn't be long.
But before Lockhart is finished, Lu Ke will not just sit and wait, he is ready to work hard in another direction.
After some time in the morning, Harry, three people and Malfoy came to the hall.
They were still confused by the problem and came to Lu Ke together.
But now, Lu Ke already has a plan.
"In the entire Hogwarts, the one most closely related to snakes is Slytherin. We need to search the entire school library, including rumors that are completely unbelievable. In short, if there is a clue, it is hope."
Hermione nodded seriously.
If that's what it's about, she can definitely help.
Then they went to the library with Lu Ke and Johanna.
"What do you think about Lockhart?"
Johanna asked in a low voice while flipping through the book casually.
Lu Ke just nodded: "I believe him."
Johanna gave Lu Ke a meaningful look: "I hope you won't be disappointed in the end."
Lu Ke smiled.
As a writer, Mr. Lockhart has no other ability, but his ability to reveal secrets is definitely better than most people in the world.
Hermione was flipping through the book on one side, and then looked at the speed at which Lu Ke was flipping through the book, and shook her head helplessly.
"Lu Ke, have you really seen it?"
Lu Ke nodded. He used a simple speed method. He was searching, not actually reading.
