Hiding in Hogwarts as a professor

But when she heard the news, Joanne was not as happy as she expected.

Of course, she was not worried about the quality of her work. She was mainly worried that this work, for which she had high hopes, would once again disappoint Tver.

“I have to remind you first that it takes time for the influence of a literary work to ferment. If you still think that everyone will accept the existence of magic in a year and a half, then don’t blame me for throwing cold water on you.”

Seeing Joanne’s serious look on her face, fearing that her work would be refrigerated if she got upset, Tver waved his hand in a funny way.

“Don’t worry, the governments of various countries will help promote it this time, and maybe it will be discussed on some official programs. The sales volume and discussion level will definitely increase a lot compared to the previous book.”

Joanne was doubtful. It wasn’t that she didn’t believe in Tver’s abilities, it was just that this situation had never happened before on this planet when officials from various countries recommended a book!

However, before she could continue chatting on this topic, there was a knock on the simple wooden door of the office.

“Mr. Foley, there is a Miss Cynthia outside, bringing a… er… Mr. Gilderoy Lockhart. She said she has something important to inform you about.”

“?”

The moment he heard Lockhart’s name, Tweel was at a loss for a second. After a while, he came back to his senses under Joanne’s equally surprised expression.

“Didn’t you say that Lockhart had died in the turmoil in Azkaban?” Joanne said in surprise.

Her last work, and even now, in addition to the “Harry Potter” series, she is also planning to produce a younger “Young Kidd” series, and the main inspiration for the latter comes from Mr. Lockhart. s work!

To put it bluntly, she just thought Lockhart was dead, so she felt so comfortable taking over a small part of his labor.

But now that the real owner has come to her door, how can she be so embarrassed!

“Uh… I’m just guessing. He was indeed imprisoned in Azkaban. In such an environment, the possibility of surviving with his strength is too small.”

Tver smiled sarcastically and quickly put this embarrassment behind him and became relaxed.

“But you can also treat him as dead. At least, he can’t affect you just like a dead person.”

“You can’t let Catherine hear such words…”

Before Joanne could vent her displeasure, the door was opened under the control of Tver.

Cynthia walked in first, followed by Lockhart who she hadn’t seen for a long time but was still in good condition.

Compared to four years ago, Lockhart was a little thinner, but Tweel always felt that this made him look smarter and more capable, unlike before, which was handsome but silly.

“According to reports from the Aurors who protect Welfare Manor, Lockhart has been wandering around there for two days. Just being safe, I arrested him.”

Cynthia glanced at Lockhart indifferently, not caring about Lockhart’s strength at all.

“But it seems that he has something to tell you, so I brought him here to you.”

“No,” Lockhart said quickly, “I originally wanted to find you in this way, Twil, I have something extremely important to tell you!”

Although, when the word “extremely important” came out of Lockhart’s mouth, Tver always felt a little absurd.

“Then why don’t you write to me directly or take the initiative to find an Auror? Or do you prefer to communicate by being arrested?”

“It’s useless!”

At the mention of this, Lockhart’s sadness and anger during this period surged into his heart.

“I was a fugitive, and I went through all the trouble to find a reckless young owl, but all my letters were returned!”

“Later, I suppressed my uneasiness and went to find some Aurors who had gone home alone…”

“result!”

“These Aurors thought I was going to attack them. As soon as I showed up, they pulled out their wands and attacked me!”

“They don’t even think about it. Not to mention that I don’t even have a wand now. Even when I was at the peak of my strength, I couldn’t beat them!”

After finally escaping from the purgatory-like turmoil in Azkaban, Lockhart’s strength is even weaker. Without a wand, he is no different from a squib.

In such a panic, the search for Tver continued to suffer tragic failures one after another.

If he hadn’t been mentally strong, he would have collapsed long ago!

Seeing Lockhart who was so aggrieved that he was about to cry, Tweel didn’t know how to comfort him.

Anyone familiar with Tver knows that letters can be sent directly to the Ministry of Magic where Cynthia is located, or to the British Joint Operations Office. He will meet regularly.

to deal with these letters.

Of course, Lockhart had been in Azkaban for nearly four years, so there was no way he knew this…

As for the Aurors, they were naturally the result of Malvolio leading the Death Eaters around.

Although those who are punished are all insiders of the Ministry of Magic, it is still necessary for Aurors and other employees to improve their awareness of personal protection.

Therefore, Lockhart was just unlucky enough to be shot…

But there was no need for Turville to explain to Lockhart.

“Don’t worry about these details. Anyway, your goal has been achieved. Tell me, what happened that made you so anxious to find me?”

Lockhart pretended to sob twice, and found that no one cared about him or even looked at him with interest, so he had to put on a serious face.

“Tver Foley, your teacher is in cahoots with the mysterious man!”

“What are you talking about?” Tver asked in shock.

“Tver, half a year ago, I saw your teacher appear on the diagonal, chat with the mysterious man, and finally send the mysterious man away respectfully!”

Lockhart cocked his head in awe, obviously proud that he could notice this.

only……

“Respectfully?”

As soon as he heard the adjective, Tweel knew that Lockhart was lying.

With his teacher’s character, he didn’t point at his nose… Oh, Voldemort doesn’t have a nose now, so it would be polite to point at his nostrils and mock him.

“You must be wrong. It is impossible for my teacher to show respect to Voldemort.”

“impossible!”

This is the only thing Lockhart can be proud of. He will never admit that he has made any mistakes.

“I personally saw Karkaroff sneaking around in Diagon Alley and chatting with a man in black robes!”

“…”

Lockhart’s words are so full of flaws that Tweel doesn’t even know where to start…

It turns out that Lockhart was referring to Karkaroff, which is not difficult to understand. For some people in the wizarding world, the principal of a school can naturally be called the teacher of all students.

What’s more, Karkaroff often shows off that Tver is Durmstrang’s student, so it is normal for Lockhart to misunderstand him.

But the problem is…

“How are you sure that the man in black robe chatting with Karkaroff is Voldemort?” Joanne was aware of this fatal problem.

In the turbulent magical world, it is normal to wear black robes to hide your identity. Now that Tver has become famous, he sometimes has to hide his identity. Can’t everyone like this be Voldemort?

All we can say is that Lockhart is as unreliable as ever…
