Hogwarts Wizarding Journey

Chapter 90 Gilderoy Lockhart

Many wizards may feel that the attitude of goblins has become worse and more arrogant in recent years. They think it is because the goblins are in charge of Gringotts and have a lot of wealth, which gives the goblins the opportunity to look down on wizards.

Confidence.

Bell doesn't agree with this view at all. Because wealth does not bring confidence to a wizard, but magic talent!

If a weak wizard holds a large amount of wealth, then that wealth can only bring disaster to him. I believe everyone understands the principle of holding a treasure in his hands to bring about a crime, right?

So why do goblins become crazy?

The answer is also very simple: because of Fudge.

As the saying goes, a raging army will bring a raging den. With a weak-minded wimp like Fudge as the Minister of Magic, the goblins did not immediately raise a flag to rebel, so they were already being cautious.

This is also the reason why Bell hates Fudge very much. A politician who has been assimilated by Muggles has forgotten what he is and gave him power and money.

Of course, Fudge's situation is not unique in the current Ministry of Magic.

It can only be said that as the exchanges between wizards and Muggles gradually increase, while bringing some progress to the magical world, it also brings some dross.

After leaving Gringotts, the three of them strolled around Diagon Alley leisurely.

Whenever Bell saw anything interesting or beautiful, he would buy it and give it to Shanna. Elena was similar to her son. As long as she thought it was good, it didn't matter whether it was useful or not. In short, she bought it first. Therefore, the three of them quickly became friends.

I bought a lot of food and supplies.

When the three of them wandered around Flourish and Blotts Bookstore, they found that the door of the bookstore was crowded with people, and most of them were women, talking excitedly about something.

Just when the three of them were wondering what was going on over there, two young ladies happened to be walking by, and they were talking about what happened at the bookstore.

"Hurry up, there are already a lot of people, and if you're late, you'll have to wait in line for a long time."

"I'm so excited to get the autograph of Gilderoy Lockhart!"

"Yes, some of my friends knew that Lockhart was signing books and selling books here, and they all wanted to come over! But they couldn't leave due to work reasons, so they specifically asked me to bring them a few more autographs!"

It turned out that Gilderoy Lockhart was doing some book signings at Flourish and Blott Bookstore. Bell remembered Lockhart, and he could be considered a talent, but it was a pity that his talent was not used in the right way.

When Bell and Hermione were chatting a few days ago, Hermione said that she came across Lockhart's book signing event when she came to Diagon Alley for shopping. The little witch was very excited to show off the signature to him.

.

Why is Lockhart here selling books again today? He wouldn't be doing this every day, would he?

"It's Lockhart!!!" Elena exclaimed in surprise.

"..."

━┳━━┳━

Bell had forgotten that his mother was still a die-hard fan of Lockhart. There were all Lockhart's books on the bedside in her bedroom, and she had read them countless times, and often read them again.

For a while, Elena frantically gave Belle Lockhart's books. Belle, who couldn't get enough of her mother, could only read all those books. I have to say, the writing was quite interesting.

However, Bell, who knew the essence of Lockhart's embroidered pillows, certainly did not want his mother to rush to buy books and ask for autographs.

I already have several sets of Lockhart’s books at home, okay?

Looking at his mother who seemed to be running away in the next second, Bell reached out and grabbed her sleeve.

"Huh? What's wrong? Bell?"

Facing the confused look cast by his mother, Bell sent his thoughts to Elena via radio waves.

'I'll be jealous if you dare to go...'

(?_?)

Looking at her son's cute little face, Elena was so cute. This was the first time she saw her son showing such an expression, so cute!

Elena instantly forgot about Lockhart and picked up Belle.

'It seems that my radio wave has been transmitted.' Bell thought.

But why was my mother’s reaction different from what I expected?

Forget it, good results are enough.

Shanna, who had been standing aside and watching her brother, discovered that her mother dared to sneak up on her brother! Didn't you see the unwilling expression on her brother's face? Why don't you let him go quickly!

Shanna couldn't care less about being a lady or not, she grabbed Belle's hand and pulled Belle out of Elena's arms.

"Brother, I'm a little tired. Let's go over there and sit down and have some drinks. As for mom, go and get your autograph! It's enough for me to accompany my brother. After I get the autograph, I'll ask you to go back.

, I will go back with my brother later."

After saying that, without waiting for Bell's reply, Shanna took his hand and walked towards a drink shop not far away.

"Ah, are you jealous, little Sanna? It doesn't matter. You are your mother's daughter, so you will be able to grow to the same size as your mother in the future, maybe?"

Elena covered her mouth and smiled, followed up, and said jokingly to Shanna.

‘No, Mom!? What are you talking about!?’

Bell stared at his mother with wide eyes. Is this what he should say to little Shanna? Besides, Shanna is only 10 years old, how can she understand it?

"Huh! Brother is not such a superficial person! And mom, you are too old to be able to operate on any scale! And I will definitely surpass mom in the future. This is called being better than others. Brother teaches me

Mine!" Shanna said unconvinced.

‘I understand! Shanna understands it! Oh my god! What on earth are you talking about when I’m not around!?’

Bell looked at his sister with wide eyes again. He felt that his eyes were a little dry.

"Hmph! Shanna, you are still too young. You don't understand. Men are not superficial, and so are boys! And your mother and I are still very young! And I have also heard that little boys of your brother's age are all

I like mature women!”

There were some shadows on Elena's face. Obviously, the topic of age is always a forbidden area for women.

"Huh! Brother is special... special!!!"

It was obvious that Shanna was a little unsure.

Bell really wanted to cheer up Shanna, but he was indeed a superficial boy...so he really had no shame in saying some things!

As the voices of the two became louder and louder, people began to pay attention to this area. Bell didn't want his mother and sister to be watched, so he quickly spoke up to interrupt the quarrel between the two.

"I heard that Lockhart will be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts? Is that true? Mom."

"Yes, honey. You are so lucky. You must study hard with Professor Lockhart!" Elena said happily.

The quality of teaching at Hogwarts has gotten worse and worse in recent years. There are cases where graduates can't even cast the Iron Armor Curse. I really don't know what the school's professors are teaching. Now Lockhart is here

With her strong joining, Elena believes that the teaching standard of Hogwarts will be greatly improved.

Bell, who knew that Lockhart was a big smuggler, didn't say anything to refute his mother. He just curled his lips at Zannah when she wasn't paying attention.

Seeing her brother avoiding her mother and secretly showing her funny expressions, Shanna laughed happily and no longer cared about her brother talking to her mother first.

The little girl felt like she had won!
