Harry Potter: The Dragon That Sleeps

"...What do you need so many herbs for?" Everille had seen the list of items listed by Jodi. Mr. Ollivander didn't ask any more questions, but she knew it.

Few of the herbs on the list have anything to do with their research.

At this moment Lockhart was lying in Jody's hotel room.

Jody was in the wand shop after a night's rest, still suffering from a low fever.

He kept holding on, hoping not to be noticed by Evelielle, but she seemed to have noticed it.

No way, Jody's behavior looks so weird.

For his own research, Jody withdrew a sum of money from Professor Binns' salary when he left school. At first, he thought the money would be enough for him to use for a long time, but in fact, the cost of materials was consumed very quickly.

horrible.

In order to get the discount, Jody and Evelyn spent several weeks trying to please Ollivander. If you don't believe it, you can take a look when you pass by the wand shop. There is actually a dot in the window for the first time in decades.

There is no dust at all.

With their efforts, Olivan's husband agreed to help them purchase supplies once a week. Only with the old gentleman's name on hand could they get discounts.

Jody's potion list was reported by Lockhart himself. When the half-dead idol wizard opened his eyes in a daze, this guy who knew the current affairs was extremely honest.

Of course, the reason why he was honest was because Jodi took away his wand.

Lockhart is proficient in memory magic, and his forgetfulness spell can last for a very long time and even achieve a nearly permanent effect, which is very rare.

Since he understands the Forgetting Curse so well, of course he is also very familiar with the various side effects of the Forgetting Curse.

In fact, when he found that after scanning almost his entire life and carefully observing the highlights in his memory, this young man was still very active, Lockhart had basically given up resistance.

Not only because the other party knows all of his secrets, but more importantly because he can withstand such a high-intensity soul reading, the other party's soul strength must be much higher than his own.

This guy was probably a descendant of a vampire as he had guessed, and it was even possible that his soul beneath his youthful appearance was actually over a hundred years old.

The words Mr. Ollivander had spoken to him only a few hours before were still ringing in his ears.

'value!'

If I really have the value that even Dumbledore would value, I hope the guy in front of me has the same idea.

Those who are worthy have a chance to survive, and Lockhart has no intention of saying goodbye to his glorious life.

Lockhart's list of herbs to heal the trauma of soul shock was as necessary for him as it was for Jody.

Lockhart had the same view on the fact that the two of them could not go to the hospital for treatment.

And now this list of herbs is the source of Eveliel's curiosity.

Jody tried hard not to let the headache hinder his movements. He had suffered similar pain when he was in school. It was a bit like the pain caused by mental overclocking at the beginning.

It's just that there is no protective magic from Hogwarts to help him bear the burden.

"Did you do something yesterday, when I didn't see it?" When a person starts to doubt, those true and false doubts will keep pouring out.

Jodi was a little dazed. Instead of making excuses for the list of herbs, Jodi was thinking about other things at the moment.

Is Lockhart enough to deal with such a big trouble that suddenly hits his head on his own?

If you can't cope with it, can you tell the Blue Witch in front of you about your Animagus humanoid transformation: Red-eyed Asian-Ian Rich's identity?

Jodi, a rare person with transformation magic, knew very well from the beginning that the identity of Ian Rich was definitely a trump card worth hiding, and if used well, it could even achieve the effect of a comeback.

Less than a month ago, when I completed my first transformation, I decided to hide this secret to the deepest level. Will I break my promise now?

'Working alone is the scariest thing...'

This sentence is something that Jody often talked about in his previous life. The domestic game market has been twisted into an awkward shape under the influence of piracy and high-quality foreign products. People like them who are burdened to move forward will always have emotional imbalances.

those moments.

At this time, the comrades beside you are the ones who can support you the most.

Humans are social animals after all.

Jody finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although Lockhart's incident was unexpected, he didn't want to give up some of the opportunities hidden in it.

"Everil, I hope you know that I can trust you to the greatest extent, so I hope you can listen carefully and calmly to what I am going to say next. There is absolutely no deception in my words. You must first

Remember this!"

Everil was a little at a loss under Jodi's serious gaze, and then she saw Jodi unfold his old magic book.

Studying magic is a very expensive business, and Jody's magic career has just begun.

Without the support of a big family, and not wanting to be taken under the command of a certain force prematurely, the hundred-year salary just relying on the friendly sponsorship of Professor Binns is obviously not enough.

Quirrell will not go to Albania under his influence, which means that in the next semester Jody can solve a lot of problems with Quirrell's help, so naturally there will be no need for Lockhart to take over the Defense Against the Dark Arts class next year.

course.

For Lockhart, he escaped a catastrophe that would have ruined his life, and this credit certainly belongs to Jody.

So it shouldn't be too much to ask him to lend a little help.

Jodi knows this character thoroughly from the Book of Prophecy and has read his past memories. It shouldn't be a big problem to use him to make money and find some tricks to help him avoid jail.

Without the witch, Jody would have had a long time headache even with the initial preparation of the potion. And he had to spend a lot of thought on Lockhart these days. The two bodies were changing back and forth, and Jody couldn't bear it.

"...As I said just now, I had a conflict with Lockhart yesterday... You don't want to mention idol revenge or anything, right?" Jodi was suddenly worried that Everille would be like that.

Violent fans who defend their idols.

If so, he might have to turn everything he just said into a joke and then find a way to prepare the potion himself.

Could Everil be that kind of person?

Obviously not.

When Jodi gave an idea, Evelielle immediately guessed what Jodi's herbal list was for, and she couldn't help but come over and put the back of her hand on Jodi's forehead.

"Hiss~ah!" Eveliel was caught off guard and was startled by Jodi's body temperature.

The wizard's body carries mystery and is also nourished by mystery. Jody only knows a rough idea of ​​how high his current body temperature is.

With a face full of shock and distress, Everil pressed her hand on Jodi's forehead again, and Jodi could feel the comfort brought by the cool little hand.

"Why didn't you tell me right away! You should go to the magic hospital instead of thinking about preparing the medicine yourself. Where is Lockhart? Did he run away? Isn't he very powerful? How could you be like this just because of a misunderstanding?"

"I can't go to the Magic Hospital, neither me nor Lockhart. What I'm going to show you next will make you understand, but you have to promise me..."

"Of course I won't tell anyone!" Everil interrupted Jody's hesitant request, which she didn't know how to say, and she was a little excited for a moment.

Jody sighed inwardly. He knew what he was about to do would be very hurtful. But he had to do it.

"It's not that I don't trust you, dear. But I hope you know how important this matter is to me. I hope you can swear to your magic eye!"

Everil was shocked and angry at first, and even had tears in her eyes, but then she thought of something and suppressed her emotions. When she looked up again, her eyes were as serious as Jody's.
