HP Approaches the Magical World

Chapter 281 Lockhart's Past

"That's for sure. You should think more about such a serious matter."

Jon said very easily, because he still had great confidence in Lockhart.

Whatever role Dumbledore wanted Lockhart to fill, Lockhart could fill it.

This is the self-cultivation of a liar.

After saying this, Jon bid farewell to Dumbledore from the principal's room.

It was nearly three hours of delay here, and it was already past midnight when he went out.

Professor Snape was waiting beside the stone statue outside the headmaster, and judging from his appearance, he did not come to find Dumbledore.

Jon smiled awkwardly, then kept the smile on his face, and leaned over fawningly.

"Ha, long time no see."

He deliberately smiled: "It's so late, what are you doing here, Professor? Are you out to admire the moon?"

"There is no moon today."

Today's Snape also had a straight face, a little more serious than usual.

"And Mr. Smith, I think I should deduct some points from you for wandering around the castle at such a late hour."

"You're out of your league by saying that."

After all, it was his own fault for what happened in the afternoon, and Jon was in the wrong, so he couldn't help but smile with Snape as usual, so he could only maximize his efforts to please.

"It's so late that you haven't rested yet, and you are waiting for me here on purpose. You must have something important to say."

Snape still didn't speak.

——This damn arrogant!

Jon gritted his teeth imperceptibly, but he also knew that if Snape was here waiting for him and Dumbledore didn't say anything, it meant something had happened.

To deal with Tsundere, you can only rely on shamelessness, and Jon knows this very well.

So he just reached out and grabbed Snape by the sleeve.

"Come on, Professor, let's talk as we go."

...

Principal's office.

As Jon left, Dumbledore waved, and a booklet floated down from the bookshelf.

This booklet looks ordinary, except that a small phoenix pattern is printed on the title page.

Investigation report from the Order of the Phoenix.

In fact, Dumbledore didn't pay much attention to privacy. It was mainly to achieve his goals, and these things were done in secret, without alerting the people under investigation.

Moreover, some of the information is also an investigation of the resumes of the respondents, and does not involve the current status.

This one is an investigation report about Jon's teacher.

Dumbledore didn't know about this incident at first. He learned that Jon mysteriously found a teacher for himself in the correspondence with Jon's grandmother, Carolina Young, and then he started to let Phoenix People from the agency investigate people who meet the relevant characteristics.

In addition to a bunch of wizards, there were even a few witches, which matched the information Madam Carolina revealed.

For the Order of the Phoenix, which has no serious business yet,

Doing this kind of thing, although overkill, can also exercise ability properly.

Even if it was an organization created to fight Voldemort, it is impossible to fight Voldemort all the time?

To put it bluntly, the Order of the Phoenix is ​​now the invisible force that Dumbledore uses to maintain his control over the magical world. Can he maintain his status with prestige and strength alone?

That was nothing more than a Ministry of Magic lie.

Dumbledore never denied his control over power, but he would not deliberately show it. Influence is always in the dark, better than on the surface, and he learned it from the Muggle Prime Minister. We have come to the point of dealing with these matters. Being in such an important position or having such a reputation is a very hot matter. Although Fudge, the current minister of the Ministry of Magic, does not talk about these things and discusses everything with him, but, It doesn't mean that Fudge really doesn't have other ideas in his heart.

It should be a very sad thing to be a Minister of Magic who is not worthy of the name.

In fact, Dumbledore didn't want to solicit so many rights. Having rights is also a very tiring thing. What needs to be sacrificed and sacrificed is always much more than what you get. He has a deep understanding of this.

But he can't help it.

What he bears is the safety of the entire wizarding world. If he can't stop Voldemort's return, who among the officials of the Ministry of Magic can maintain the current peace?

This is why the members of the Order of the Phoenix are so loyal to Dumbledore. They know very well that if Dumbledore really falls, there will probably be no one who can stop Voldemort.

Having fought the Death Eaters for so many years, they knew best what kind of people they were.

Cruel, scheming, and unscrupulous in order to achieve his goals. In contrast, Dumbledore is so powerful and dedicated to maintaining the peace of the magical world. Not to mention rare, it is also very rare.

To be a member of the Order of the Phoenix, they just need to live in peace.

Dumbledore is undoubtedly someone who can give them a sense of security. At the same time, their goodwill for the legendary wizard and Dumbledore's prestige has strengthened their trust in Dumbledore. Therefore, they are willing to implement Dumbledore's will.

Faith is so important to a group of people with an organization.

If Jon had known these things, he would have said so.

But he obviously didn't know this.

Dumbledore opened the booklet and found Lockhart's page.

These are summaries of Lockhart's past, documenting Lockhart's early years.

Gilderoy Lockhart was born into a mixed-race family: his mother was a witch, his father was a Muggle, and he had two older sisters.

He was the only child in the family who displayed a gift for magic, and he was a bright, handsome boy who earned his mother's unscrupulous favoritism.

When he was studying at Hogwarts, his teachers believed that his intelligence and abilities were above average. As long as he worked hard, he might achieve his own career and was assigned to Ravenclaw's Ravenclaw. Hart soon achieved good academic results, but his natural arrogance of "do your best or don't do it" has been entangled with him, making him more and more dissatisfied with himself. Gradually, he used his talents to take shortcuts and dodge.

He studies diligently not to improve himself, but to earn attention for himself. He is eager for various awards and for everyone to know him.

Dumbledore still remembered that when he pestered himself to ask to start a school newspaper, he was indeed a very ambitious student, but after Lockhart graduated, Dumbledore hadn't heard of him anymore.
