HP Approaches the Magical World

Jon didn't expect that he would be self-defeating, and he started Lockhart's conversation with a casual sentence.

But the business hadn't started yet, he could only listen to what Lockhart taught him....

"The knowledge of Muggles is also worthwhile. Take this behavioral analysis as an example. It tells us that even a small subconscious action of a person can be used to judge the identity of the other party."

Lockhart held the book and said slowly: "Facial expressions can analyze the emotions of the other party, and the behavior of other parts of the body and the daily habits of the other party can all interpret more information..."

Of course Lockhart didn't specialize in studying these things, he learned these contents entirely because he would use them usually.

Muggles have quite a lot of experience in this area, on the contrary, wizards do not have so many entertainment activities.

There are no movies, no TV, and medieval operas and dramas are still the main popular entertainment in the wizarding world. If someone commits a crime, there is no need to send out any detectives, because the monitoring system of the Ministry of Magic is quite perfect, as long as Aurors are sent out to arrest people and then arrest them. Just throw it in Azkaban.

Lockhart is a very smart person. After graduating from the magic school, he has been wandering around the world, so he has also seen a lot of customs in the Muggle world.

Later, when he started his own "career", he actually encountered some difficulties in the early days. After all, those wizards would not completely trust him, and without trust, it would be difficult to implement his ideas.

So he began to study writing first, and it was at this time that he began to see psychology books in the Muggle world.

It's just that at that time, he was reading works on criminal psychology.

So, there are two kinds of people who left a deep impression on his heart.

One is special personnel for investigation, and the other is those liars.

Coincidentally, Lockhart had contact with both.

The United Kingdom has a special secret department called MI0, which is directly under SIS.

This department is like the Muggle affairs department of the Ministry of Magic, and Muggles also have departments related to the affairs of the wizarding world.

This department was initiated by the British University Alliance, and its main members are Squibs and people who are curious about the magic world. The relevant members are very rigorously recruited, and they are screened and trained from various university societies.

Among these members, if there is a choice to keep doing it, then they will be transferred to become full members after the end of university. If they want to return to normal Muggle life, then they need to go through certain amnestics and sign a non-disclosure agreement such treaties.

Of course, the subsidies are relatively generous, and the British defense department will give priority to these people.

After all, these people have been trained. If they can deal with magical affairs, then they come back to deal with Muggle crimes, which can be regarded as a dimensionality reduction blow.

And liars... Lockhart once saw a case when he accompanied MI0 members on a certain matter.

Unlike detectives, these crooks can actually impersonate a person according to a preset personality, family and occupation, and even use makeup and other means to hide the truth from the relatives and friends of the person being impersonated.

"So on the other hand, if you can see through, you can act. The two are relative."

Jon nodded, and agreed with a smile: "There is a saying in the Muggle world that is the truth, the best liar is the best actor."

The one in front of him was a liar, and Jon knew that there was absolutely nothing wrong with what he said. This kind of praise would definitely catch Lockhart's flattery unconsciously, and it would also make the other party very comfortable.

"That's right."

Lockhart was obviously satisfied with Jon's kind reaction: "Have you heard of Frank? I like him very much."

"..."

Frank...who? The boss of which liar group?

Lockhart saw Jon's bewildered face, and promptly popularized science:

"Frank, full name is Frank William Abagnale.

He is a legend. He was wanted by many countries decades ago because he was defrauded in many countries. Before he was 21 years old, he played no less than 8 kinds of fakes from pilots, pediatricians to lawyers, etc. His identity and occupation have not been exposed, and it is said that he can even gain the trust of professionals when he lies, making them really believe that Frank is their colleague, and now he is working as a security consultant in the United States..."

Nothing unexpected, Jon watched Lockhart talking happily, and listened quietly.

"...so, if you make it realistic enough, people can believe almost anything...that's Frank's own words."

Jon silently listened to Lockhart end his long speech like a speech. After listening, he also remembered who Lockhart was talking about.

Frank may not be famous, but when it comes to a well-known movie, Jon is familiar with it.

The American movie "A Game of Cat and Mouse" released in 2002 was a very popular movie, especially the movie starring Xiao Li - Leonardo Dubai Caprio, which has a good popularity throughout China.

Naturally, Jon was not exempt, he had watched the movie many times, and he could still remember the general plot, but what Lockhart said just now pulled his memory of the movie out of the dust.

But no matter how shrewd people are, they will make very low-level mistakes. Frank will be caught, and Lockhart is no exception.

At this moment, Jon couldn't figure out why Lockhart was sent to Hogwarts by Dumbledore to be a teacher. It was because there was something wrong with his head.

This is simply the result of being caught by Dumbledore and having to commit the crime.

However, now Jon plans to follow this method directly.

The handle is something that others don't have, but he has it.

Lockhart's handles are all in his mind, and the relevant evidence is all in the conversation between the two of them just now.

"Mr. Lockhart, so that's how your book was written? It really is a good idea, but I don't know if Ms. Skeeter of the "Daily Prophet" will be interested in your legendary experience?"

Jon closed the book and continued to smile harmlessly: "Of course what I'm talking about is your real experience, not what is written in your book."

This kind of thing is caught off guard, and Lockhart must be taken advantage of when he is least prepared for this threat to be effective.

Sure enough, after listening to Jon's words, the smile that was still blooming on Lockhart's face instantly froze on his face, and then the smile disintegrated inch by inch, and finally looked a little fierce.
