The Deep Sea Wizard of Hogwarts

Inside the room, Lind raised a small bottle and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's done!"

The glass bottle in Lind's hand was shaped like a test tube, with an oak cork on top. In the bottle, the thick black and red liquids kept entangled with each other, splitting and ejecting "sticky threads" that kept climbing and sliding on the inner wall, as if they had life.

It was very similar to the original form of the symbiote in a certain American superhero movie.

"Will this thing really not crawl out of my throat after I drink it?!" Lind said solemnly.

But he could not deny that the bottle of potion in his hand was indeed in the form recorded in the book.

"Anyway, it's done!"

As he said this, Lind threw the bottle into a larger round-mouthed jar, which was filled with sea water, which was considered a means of preserving the potion.

Now the potion is also there, everything is ready, only a suitable environment is missing.

He glanced at the time, three fifty-five.

He could still practice the piano for a while.

Thinking about it, Lind packed up. Then he took out the piano and began to play it slowly.

At first, because the potion was finally brewed, he was too excited to enter the state, and the melody he played was unbearable even for himself.

Finally, after a long time, he entered the state. With the continuous cooperation of his fingers, the strings vibrated rhythmically, slowly passing through the Suitcase Room, passing through the Room of Requirement, and echoing softly on the eighth floor of the castle.

Lind squinted his eyes slightly, and his body began to sway with the music involuntarily, tapping his toes from time to time, or slightly turning his head and shaking his face.

This crisp and graceful piano sound was like the evil chirping of monsters, and like the sound of flesh being gnawed and torn, and the teeth of the eater knocking on the bones...

March is here, and time always passes so quickly. It has been almost a week since Lind called Andersen to monitor Lockhart.

On Saturday, Lind stayed alone in the dormitory, and Andersen stood next to him. At this time, he opened his huge tentacle mouth and stuffed a large piece of beef ridge into it.

"I didn't see him send anything..." Lind murmured in a low voice.

"Or maybe he did it very secretly..."

Lind said one by one.

"Andersen, let's find him something to do!" Lind smiled. "Break into his office again!"

"Gugugugu."

"Let me think about it, let me think about it!" Lind covered his head and lay on the bed.

When Lockhart found out that he had been robbed that day, he did not make a fuss. Instead, he quietly cleaned up the office, as if it had never happened.

"To be honest, it would be a good thing if he shouted that he was robbed, but he not only did not publicize it, but concealed it. Could it mean that there is a trick here..."

Lind rubbed his chin.

"Gugu!"

"Yes, maybe he is waiting for me to go over!" Lind smiled. "But even if there is a fraud, I will go."

"Ha ha!"

Linde patted Andersen's head, feeling a little disappointed, as if he felt that with Andersen's brain, he shouldn't say these words, "This matter... I still want to do it myself, and Dumbledore doesn't owe me anything, how can I go to him for big and small things."

"What can Lockhart be interested in? Tell me." Linde smiled.

"Does he want to be needed?" Linde recalled Lockhart's performance in Hogwarts during this period.

Gilderoy Lockhart, professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, is a fame-seeking and swindling person who has never had even a moment of highlight in Hogwarts.

But he is just like a peacock, who likes to find a sense of existence for himself and shows his "extremely high" honors all the time.

Regardless of whether he is really such a person, as long as he is still in Hogwarts for a day, he must wear this mask and maintain this personality.

This is both his mask and his shackles.

Thinking of this, Linde stood up at once.

"I've got a good idea."

As he said that, he took Andersen to the lounge. First of all, his plan could not be done by him and Andersen alone.

Then he had to find some helpers.

Cedric? Probably not, Cedric probably wouldn't accept the act of 'cheating'.

Colin? Hmm... I can consider it, but this person has too many small ideas.

Harry? If I tell him that I want to mess with Lockhart, he will definitely not refuse, but Lind feels that he is not too familiar with him.

Then there is only one person, a person who is extremely deceptive because his appearance and heart are extremely inconsistent. And this person likes to make trouble and will never refuse me.

————————

At dinner time, Lind walked through the hall leisurely, without the idea of ​​eating. Except when there is a banquet, teachers rarely gather in the hall to eat at the same time.

But Lockhart is an exception. He always spends some time to join in the fun with the students.

Lind was staring at the book in his hand, but when he walked through the auditorium, he heard Andersen's cooing and ran away.

Because he was worried that his vision would be exposed, he deliberately walked through the auditorium at this time, and then Andersen came to see if Lockhart was eating.

After walking through the auditorium, Andersen said, "Just started eating!"

In order to buy time, Lind started running non-stop. When he passed an empty corner, he pulled out a silver robe from his waist bag.

He put it on his body without stopping, and Lind's body disappeared into the corridor.

This is the invisibility cloak that Lind "borrowed" from Harry.

"Oh, praise Harry!" Lind said with a smile in his heart.

After putting on the invisibility cloak, out of caution, Lind still put on a hockey mask, and then headed towards Lockhart's office.

Every step he took was a quick heel touch to the ground, and then the body moved forward, the soles and toes pressed the ground in turn. Then the toes of the back step were slowly retracted. He walked all the way without making a sound.

Arriving at Lockhart's office, Lind took out his wand, lowered his throat, and chanted the spell softly.

"Alaho Open!"

The door lock did not move at all.

Obviously, Lockhart had made a lot of preparations here. And he didn't know the advanced spell of the unlocking spell, "Open Quickly".

Then he could only try some violent means.

Linde thought, took off the mask, and tentacles began to burst out on his face. Now the tentacles on his face were not only on his chin, but also began to grow upwards gradually. It seemed that the entire lower half of his face would be covered by tentacles.

Linde clenched his fists, and a strong sense of power came.

Linde put away the magic wand, first put both hands on the gap of the door, and began to push forward slowly.

This way the sound is smaller, if it can be opened in this way, it would be the best.

However, after pushing for a long time, Linde felt that his strength was almost used up, but only the upper and lower ends of the door were deformed, and the lock behind the door was still connected to the door frame.

Swish!

Linde retracted his strength, took two steps back and jumped twice lightly.

"Are you sure it's under the cabinet!"

Andersen nodded.

"Well, you go out first and wait for me at the window.

Since Lockhart has dealt with the door lock, there may be some alarm spells or tracking spells in the room, or even on the suitcase.

This time we can't even open the door, let alone cast a spell to cover the magic paintings inside, so we have to make a quick decision.

After I break in, I will take the box and leave directly through the window."

Andersen nodded, then crawled out from under the invisibility cloak, just like a crow appeared out of thin air.

Linde tensed his body and was ready to go. In an instant, he took two steps forward, and a right foot appeared out of thin air in the air, kicking the door hard like a spring compressed to the extreme.

Bang!

A violent sound exploded in the entire corridor on the third floor. The two magic paintings on the same wall as the door were even shaken to the ground, making the people inside dizzy.
