HP Approaches the Magic World

Chapter 103: The opportunity cannot be missed

Jon watched with his own eyes as murderous intent appeared on Lockhart's face, and then gradually receded, and the gentleman's hypocrisy emerged from beneath his face again.

"What are you talking about? There is nothing true or false about me."

Lockhart calmed himself down and planned to deal with the child in front of him - he could not kill anyone. If a student was killed, the Ministry of Magic would discover it.

"Don't be nervous, I mean no harm."

Relatively speaking, Jon was much calmer. He was not worried at all that Lockhart would do anything to him.

Because of Helga's protection, he is now neither afraid of death nor afraid of anyone trying to modify his memory.

"This is a Muggle area. It is very dangerous to use magic here, so I think we can communicate peacefully, just like we did just now."

Having taken the initiative, Jon felt much more relaxed.

"After listening to what you said just now, I think you are indeed a very smart person. I like talking to smart people."

Lockhart saw that the child opposite showed a maturity that was beyond his age, and gradually loosened his grip on the wand.

As he said, he is very good at observing people's emotions. No matter how good the person opposite is at pretending, as long as Jon doesn't tell the truth, he can still see some clues.

but none.

Jon's expression was unusually calm, with no trace of lies at all.

And if you think about it with your brain, this matter may really be that simple. At least Jon seems to have no ill intentions towards him.

Otherwise, there is no need to talk to him so much. His past cannot withstand investigation. As long as Jon hands these things to the Ministry of Magic or the Daily Prophet, he will be finished.

"Tell me your conditions."

Lockhart took off his sunglasses and looked directly at Jon opposite: "Money, reputation, I will try my best to satisfy you."

"I don't want any."

Jon leaned on the back of the sofa and tapped his fingers on the table.

"I know you are a very successful wizard, but I am just a student, so I am not short of money or fame. I can get quite a lot of fame anytime I want."

Lockhart's brows furrowed like a newborn baby's, but he had to admit that the child opposite seemed confident enough to say such a thing.

Which family's child is this?

Never heard of it before?

Lockhart suddenly realized that he had been sitting here for so long without even asking the child's name.

Was he charmed?

Jon didn't know that Lockhart had already begun to speculate in his mind that he had Veela blood. He was just thinking about how to put it mildly.

After all, you have to let others teach you the magic of memory.

"In fact, I admire your deeds very much. Not just any wizard can achieve your level. But at the same time, I am more interested in your expertise."

Lockhart was suspicious: "My specialty? You mean writing?"

"Of course not. I'm talking about your magic expertise. In the field of memory magic, you should be among the top five wizards in the UK."

"That's not the case."

Lockhart didn't know what Jon was praising him for, but he always felt that there was a conspiracy.

"I have no other intention, I just want to ask if you are interested in becoming a private teacher in my home?"

Lockhart was in a daze all the way back to school.

All he could think about was what Jon had said to him.

He didn't know where he had made the mistake. He had obviously done things secretly before, and he had never told anyone about them.

But these things happened to be known by others, and now they have become a threat to themselves.

It doesn't seem like a threat.

If you are simply looking for a teacher, why would you find yourself here?

No one can know about it unless this is the case.

A student who has just entered the first grade has the courage and confidence to come to see him, and he is very aware of his own thoughts. It seems that he has been staring at him for a long time.

He has been wandering around the West for such a long time, so he naturally knows that some large wizard families do have this inexplicable tradition.

and,

a private teacher,

It often means that the teacher has other uses for the family.

But apart from some false reputations, what else is worthy of others’ prying eyes?

He is vain, but he is not a fool.

He knows what can and cannot be done. If it cannot be avoided, then he will not avoid it.

The most important thing is that Jon did make him a generous offer.

Money comes second.

Jon made him an offer. Although it was still a blank check, it was very moving.

He looked at the note in his hand, which had the hotel room number written on it.

There is also a name.

Underneath the beautiful cursive fonts, there is a very brilliant name.

Jon Smith Hufflepuff.

Hufflepuff.

Not Hufflepuff House, but the Hufflepuff family.

He was surprised at first that there were still descendants of Hufflepuff left in the world, but then he was no longer surprised.

Because if it is a family with ancient inheritance like this, then it is not surprising that others will know about your affairs.

If this news is passed on, the entire wizarding world will probably be shocked.

Those are the living descendants of the legendary wizard, and as long as Hogwarts exists, this surname will never decline.

The students exported by Hufflepuff House account for almost half of all wizards in the British wizarding world.

At that time, as a private teacher, I will definitely get countless looks of all kinds.

That is the life he wants. Even if he is jealous, he will feel quite comfortable in his heart.

And when that happens, what novels will he write?

He usually spends a lot of money, and the royalties for publishing books cannot make ends meet. Otherwise, would he still need to hold book signings all the time?

Don’t you have enough money to spend and need to sell your looks to attract fans?

Now he has thought clearly, there is no way out by writing books. It is tiring and hard, no one can see that he can’t make money, and sometimes life becomes a problem, not to mention that people often ridicule him.

It's better to save enough money for yourself first,

When the time comes, he can write whatever he wants to write.

You don’t have to look at other people’s faces to live your life.

Jon's invitation made him see this opportunity.

after all,

He is not only good at finding targets,

He is also good at looking for opportunities.

If God puts an opportunity here and he misses it, he would be really stupid.

And now,

He already felt,

future fame and fortune,

seems to be there,

Waved at him.
