The Bard at Hogwarts

Hogwarts.

In the dormitory, the thick bed curtain was suddenly opened from the inside.

After changing into Slytherin's plain robe, Ino opened the door of the dormitory and walked out of the castle.

The gains from this story really made people feel happy, but this happiness could not be shared with others.

So, he now wanted to go to the Black Lake to play in the water and vent.

As a black swan, it is reasonable to play in the water.

…

With an indescribable happiness on his face, Ino walked all the way to the Black Lake.

There are many students in Hogwarts, but the castle is very large, and not only the castle is large, but the space around the castle is even wider.

Just one Black Lake is already endless.

You should know that people with normal vision, standing on the ground plane, can observe the distance between 500 meters and 1,000 meters with the naked eye.

Maybe this is not too intuitive, but if the Black Lake is regarded as a square of 1,000 meters, its area is at least the size of 100 football fields.

On the bank of the Black Lake, under the covered bridge of the corridor.

Ino approached a huge rock as a shelter.

In an instant, a black swan with feathers glowing slightly blue walked out from the other side of the rock.

"Plop!"

The swan jumped into the water in a very generous posture.

The soles of its feet gently stirred the lake water, causing ripples. Amid the rippling water, it quickly swam towards the center of the lake.

The sun shone on the Black Lake, and Ino closed his eyes slightly on the water, enjoying the joy of floating on the water.

At this moment, he finally put down all his burdens, because everything was stable.

Whether it was the mutated fire spell or the white witch's ice and snow magic, as long as he waited for time step by step, the legendary wizards would not guarantee it, but the bottom line was that Snape, Professor McGonagall and other top-notch wizards would be the best.

What's more, if he could thoroughly understand the magic book of time travel...

In short, the road ahead was like the Black Lake in front of him, flat, wide and without waves.

...

Time sometimes seemed to be very biased. As long as it was playing and frolicking, it would inevitably speed up its pace quietly.

Unconsciously, the clouds in the sky were dyed warm orange-red by the sunset. The clouds floated gently, as if playing with the light and shadow on the lake.

Occasionally, a breeze blew. If you listen carefully, you can hear the laughter of the little wizards in the castle in the distance.

In the evening, on the gravel road outside the castle.

Ino hummed country folk songs and walked alone towards the brightly lit castle.

"Ino!"

A familiar voice came from behind him. He stopped and turned around to see Hermione and the other two on the lawn not far away.

"Good evening, Hermione! And Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasley!"

Ino greeted with a smile.

Today, after completely letting go of his ideological burden, he didn't care about the progress of the story.

Similarly, he would not deliberately keep a distance from Harry and Ron. Especially for Ron, he would not look at each other with tinted glasses now.

It's boring and meaningless.

...

Outside the castle.

Hermione was inexplicably happy.

Just now, in Hagrid's hut, she discussed the secret hidden by Lockhart with Harry and Ron.

Just when she felt helpless, fate made her meet Ino.

She was subconsciously full of confidence in Ino, who could tell fortunes, had good grades, was knowledgeable, and more importantly, was very gentle.

"Ino, are you okay now? We have discovered a shocking secret!"

Hermione said as she walked over quickly.

On the lawn, Harry and Ron looked at each other and followed quietly.

Harry had a good impression of Ino, and the other party had helped him with divination. Although Hagrid was fine in the end and he was punished, it is undeniable that the result of the divination was correct.

On the other hand, Ron was purely grateful. No matter how big the prejudice was before, the other party was still the one who saved Ginny.

"Shocking secret?" Ino looked at the trio with a smile.

"That's right!" Hermione nodded seriously, "It's Lockhart! He's a big liar, he deceived everyone!"

"Harry found out, he saw it with his own eyes in Lockhart's office!" Ron added in time, especially emphasizing the words "he saw it with his own eyes".

It seemed that the gears of fate began to turn.

Hearing this, Ino looked up at the sky: "Let's go back to the castle first, we'll talk while eating dinner."

...

Castle Hall.

Ino followed Hermione and the other two and sat at the Gryffindor table.

Of course, this itself was nothing, after all, this was not a start-of-term dinner, and there was no regulation on who owned these tables, who could sit and who could not sit. It was just that later the little wizards spontaneously formed groups and split according to different colleges.

Just like when you go to school, draw a line on the desk and divide the territory, half yours and half mine. The difference is that the little wizards at Hogwarts drew a few more lines and divided four territories.

So in essence, it was nothing for Ino to sit on the Gryffindor territory.

But he ignored the other two people in the hall, Draco and Pansy.

Pansy was fine, although she stared, she just sat there and smiled gently.

Draco was a little impatient, and stood up to walk over.

But he had just taken a few steps when his eyes suddenly fixed. After seeing Hermione sitting next to Ino, he showed a meaningful expression and went straight back to his seat.

On the other side of the hall.

The Gryffindor table.

Hermione sat down next to Ino and began to narrate the whole incident.

Because the matter was serious and there were many people in the hall, she could only speak in a low voice after getting close to ensure that no outsiders would hear.

From a distance, the two people's movements were somewhat intimate, as if they were whispering with their heads touching each other.

Harry and Ron, sitting opposite, looked more like two bodyguards.

Because they always looked around with vigilant eyes, and once someone approached, they would drive them away silently like a death gaze.

...

As Hermione narrated, Ino also understood the general course of events.

In order to increase his popularity with the Savior, Lockhart also invited Harry into the office every now and then.

Either talk about ideals or tell about experiences, in short, use all means to enhance the relationship between the two.

Seriously speaking, this seems to be nothing. But the magical thing is that in Harry's experience a few days ago, Lockhart had just talked for less than a quarter of an hour, and a paper airplane suddenly appeared in the office.

Lockhart left, but before leaving, he asked Harry to wait for him for a while.

What happened next was interesting. A book suddenly fell from the bookshelf in the office. When Harry picked up the book, he saw a pink hairpin under the sofa...

In short, it was magical, one thing after another, a bunch of exquisite coincidences, just like using snacks to tease a kitten to change its route, Harry finally saw a cheap notebook in a hidden corner.

Although most of the contents were some random essays.

But Harry still found useful information, and finally he also discovered a shocking secret-Lockhart has been using magic to plunder other people's experiences.

All Lockhart's books are forged.
