HP Approaches the Magical World

In fact, Lockhart wasn't very popular at school, but he still achieved his junior goals through some repeated, high-profile "feats" to make him known to everyone in the school:

For example, he once used magic to carve a huge personal signature on the Quidditch pitch, each letter of the signature was twenty feet long-for which he was fined a week of confinement and labor;

He also imitated the Dark Mark, projecting a gigantic, glittering likeness of himself into the sky during that tense time; and also sent himself eight hundred cards every Valentine's Day—the owls that gathered in the auditorium made everyone Had to forego breakfast as too many feathers and droppings ended up in the porridge.

Because of his unusually "magnificent" means, when he graduated, the professors and janitors of the whole school couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

...

By the time Dumbledore heard from Lockhart again, he was already quite famous.

Dumbledore heard the news about him from other teachers. It is said that Lockhart has made great achievements abroad, so Dumbledore paid attention to it.

Once you start to pay attention to these things, more and more relevant deeds will come out. The teachers at Hogwarts even felt that they might have misunderstood Lockhart at the beginning, because he was in a distant place, dedicated to The cause of eliminating all kinds of dangers, dark creatures, all proved his extraordinary courage and tenacity.

But Dumbledore knew very well what kind of person Lockhart was, and he formed the Order of the Phoenix just at this time, so he tried to investigate Lockhart - there were no wizards who happened to know, and it wasn't because Knowing the truth by accident, these things are all thanks to the investigation of the Order of the Phoenix and Dumbledore's experience and reasoning.

It's just that as the member responsible for investigating Lockhart passed away because of Voldemort's evil deeds, Lockhart's investigation report was completely put on Dumbledore's bookshelf to gather dust. No one wants to know that Lockhart deceived those who have The thing about accomplished wizards and witches revealing their greatest deeds and then wiping their memories afterward - maybe those reporters from the Daily Prophet liked it, but Dumbledore didn't.

However, Lockhart did not disappear in Dumbledore's world, because every time he returned to England, he would immediately write a book to tell the heroic deeds that belonged to others.

- "Lockhart's book was such a bestseller in the wizarding world that he even prepared a peacock brush just to sign it."

Such gossip is never missed by the students. Dumbledore can often hear fresh gossip about him from the students, and because of the so-called "deeds", Lockhart has won many awards.

He was invited to become an honorary member of the Defense Against the Dark Arts League, while at the same time, he has been successfully concealing his fraud in the wizarding world.

It's just that because there was no follow-up investigation, Dumbledore didn't know that Lockhart had another identity. Because he had had enough of being a celebrity, Lockhart went to work in a special department of Muggles incognito. consultant.

If he had known this, Dumbledore might have admired him even more.

But even knowing these inside stories, Dumbledore didn't think Lockhart was a bad wizard because of it.

He was never a bad wizard, just too lazy and vain, at least he never killed for his own desire - have to say,

Such a judgment standard can only prove that Lockhart is not too bad, and there is no way to cover up his character problems.

And at the same time, Dumbledore also knew about Lockhart's research on memory magic.

There is quite a description of this in the information Dumbledore has, and judging from past events, Dumbledore feels that Lockhart is likely to have perfected this complex magic system, so he can find those great and powerful magical systems. Brave wizards and witches then managed to modify their memories and steal their heroic exploits.

These analysis reports on Lockhart, the handwriting on them has been dried up and blurred, but this does not prevent Dumbledore from reading, and at the same time, he also pulled out a newspaper from the bookshelf, which is an exclusive interview with Lockhart—— Because of his upcoming book.

The above paragraph is also very interesting.

"...In the ten years since graduation, Lockhart has achieved the status of a best-selling author with his series of autobiographical books, and his reputation as a world-class defense against the dark arts. Honorary member of the Anti-Dark Arts League.

His good looks—although he claims to have "gone dark and dusty after the days of wrestling with werewolves and succubuses, life-and-death fights, bloody hand-to-hand combat"—have won Wizards Weekly's Most Charming Smile award five times . "

When Dumbledore saw this, he smiled softly. He didn't know why. He suddenly felt that it made sense for Jon to learn from Lockhart. Showed his talent.

Moreover, Lockhart's character seems to meet his own requirements very well.

Such a character who likes to perform may be able to perfectly fulfill his own requirements, and at the same time, this is also beneficial to Lockhart.

So the principal sat back in his seat and began to write a letter.

You must be very cautious about writing a letter to Lockhart. At the same time, you must be prepared that Lockhart will use this letter as a talking point. Although Dumbledore doesn't care about this kind of thing happening, he needs to be on guard against Lockhart. Hart built the hype for his new book by declining the invitation to the event.

Therefore, this letter cannot directly express his desire for Lockhart to come to teach. It needs a little ambiguous "language art processing" to be able to bring Lockhart to Hogwarts for an in-person interview. thing.

——Even if he couldn't make sense, he could still help Jon while he was in school. How to say, this candidate was recommended to him by Jon, and doing things from the beginning to the end is a good quality that a student should possess.

Dumbledore was very experienced in writing letters. He drafted the words and draft very quickly, and then began to write the text of the letter.

The phoenix Fox flew in from the window, landed on the bird stand, took a small biscuit and swallowed it, then landed on Dumbledore's shoulder, and rubbed Dumbledore's face with his beak.

"Okay, okay, I see."

Dumbledore put down his pen, and the letter was automatically folded and put into an envelope, and then Dumbledore handed it to Fox.

"Go, you know where he is."
