Harry Potter’s Defense Professor

"Harry, you come first!" Lockhart pointed at Harry. "Legiliconity!"

"Student Harry asked me for Occlumency after class. I regret that I can't teach you."

･････

"Student Granger insists because my behavior is inappropriate, well, I admit it, I hope you don't report me to the Ministry of Education." There was a chuckle around.

"Simo thinks this class is boring, well, I'll take a closer look at your homework next class."

"Classmate Ron is thinking about what to eat for lunch. I'm wondering why you can't eat fat." Several people in Slytherin laughed mockingly.

"Neville was thinking about his parents - oh, I'm sorry, they were the bravest people."

･･････

"Malfoy believes his dean will teach him Occlumency, I hope."

"Miss Pandora thinks I'm handsome when I cast spells! Oh, thanks, five points for Slytherin!" There was a dissatisfied cry from Gryffindor.

"Miss Pansy thinks it's useless to learn Occlumency. Oh, you're not very positive."

･･･

Lockhart spent a class time doing Legilimency on all the students, and it was all superficial. After all, he was not really interested in the secrets of the students. It would be bad if he went too far and caused resistance. Just make sure it's the student and isn't under the Imperius Curse.

Over the next week, he followed his Defence Against the Dark Arts class and read memories of all the students in the school. Professor McGonagall came to talk to Lockhart, and the Ministry of Magic also sent a document warning to stop this. teaching, but Lockhart goes his own way. Hermione even thought Lockhart was under the Imperius Curse by the Death Eaters, so she ran to Dumbledore, but Dumbledore reassured her. The principals of the other two schools also suspected that Lockhart was responsible for the attack that night, but there was no evidence.

I didn't find any signs of Barty Jr. or Imperius Curse. What's going on? I have to check the staff of the top three games? The problem is that the Goblet of Fire has not been touched by the staff, and a large number of adult wizards are not easy to deal with.

How did Barty do it?

Lockhart felt that he was going crazy. He took a huge risk and got nothing. He decided to give up the investigation temporarily. Harry Potter wanted to die, let him die, paralyzed, and the big deal is to fly away.

Although Dumbledore asked Lockhart to protect Harry, Lockhart didn't want to do anything at all, and the powerful little Barty would definitely protect Harry...

On the Sunday before the first assignment, all students from Year 3 and up can visit the village of Hogsmeade.

"Professor, I want to play in Hogsmeade, but there is no guardian to sign..." Harry found Lockhart awkwardly.

"Come on," Lockhart, always a good talker, signed quickly. "Have fun."

Harry still stood still.

"Any thing else?"

"Ah, Professor, you seem to have something on your mind during this time, you should go and relax," Harry saw Lockhart looking at him suspiciously, betraying his friend nervously: "—Hermione said it, she thought You should go to Hogsmeade with us."

"Oh... that makes sense," Lockhart also felt that he was a little too depressed recently, so he stood up and put his arms around Harry, "then let's go."

They came to the Three Broomsticks together.

Rita Skeeter and her photographer just came out of it. They spoke in low voices, passing Lockhart and Harry without even looking at them. Lockhart had to huddle with Harry to avoid Rita Skeeter's drunken alligator handbag waving in the air.

"The professor is here." Hermione's face flushed slightly, she didn't expect Harry to call Lockhart over, "I thought you wouldn't come..."

"You're right, I should relax and have something to drink." Lockhart sat down beside Hermione and Ron.

"Four butterbeers, boss," Ron called graciously.

"She's gone." Hermione sighed in relief. "Rita Skeeter is annoying!"

Three Broomsticks was a packed bar, mostly made up of students from Hogwarts school who came to entertain themselves in the afternoons, but there were also some wizards Lockhart rarely saw anywhere else.

"That stupid woman makes a living by smearing and slandering others. Don't talk to her when you children interview her." Lockhart remembered that there was another person, an Animagus reporter, who might be useful in the future. "Especially you, Harry, you're a warrior now."

"Just chatting with Rita Skeeter and feeling awful!" Hermione complained. "Professor, what would you do if you met her."

"A meal of veritas, plus a forgetfulness." Lockhart said the truth, but others thought it was a joke. Sometimes this world is like this. No one believes the truth, and lies are regarded as a creed. , Lockhart was so happy.

Ron: "Professor is really tough."

Hermione: "That's how you should do it with her."

Harry: "You guys are cruel..."
