Hermione, Be the Minister of Magic with Me! - Chapter 183
Dumbledore’s answer to this question was not so happy, and it seemed that he regretted not digging out the keywords on the note just now.
“Whatever it is, it is especially important to Voldemort.” Dumbledore did not answer the question directly, “What do you think?”
“Obviously, although I don’t like my younger brother’s character very much, he’s really not stupid at all. If he really risked his life to get something of Voldemort, then it wouldn’t be an ordinary thing.”
Speaking of this, Sirius thought thoughtfully: “Speaking of which, I always thought that my younger brother was a cowardly and submissive guy, but now it seems that I have to correct my opinion.”
“So, can you take me to No. 12 Grimmauld Place now? Since it is the ancestral home of the Blakes, I think there may be some things there that you must pass through.”
Sirius did not refuse this time: “I’m afraid yes… well.”
“Take your godson and we’ll go together.” Dumbledore said again.
Sirius hesitated for a moment, but agreed.
Lockhart had no idea how Dumbledore got the fake Horcrux, but he called Harry as Sirius, saying that Dumbledore was going to take the two to the Blake family’s ancestral home in London. Lockhart guessed something.
If there is no accident, Slytherin’s locket will also be found by Dumbledore.
Diary, gold cup, locket, Harry, Dumbledore has mastered 4 of Voldemort’s 7 Horcruxes, and the only ones left are Ravenclaw’s crown, resurrection stone and Nagini.
The crown is in Lockhart’s own hands, and he is still thinking about how to tell Dumbledore this thing, it should not be a problem soon. Although Nagini is temporarily unknown, Dumbledore should soon be able to discover this from Harry’s “snake perspective”, so it is probably not a problem.
The only problem then is the resurrection stone.
That “father bone, servant flesh, enemy blood” magic should only be Voldemort’s most ideal result. If he fails to catch Harry, he will use the resurrection stone. This should not be wrong.
But Lockhart couldn’t understand why Voldemort did not transfer the resurrection stone in the original book after he was successfully resurrected. It was obvious that Harry had escaped, and Dumbledore could not have come to check. He still left the resurrection stone in Little Hanger. Dayton, this is a little too confident.
Maybe it was because he had gone too far in order to pretend, and had called the Death Eaters to watch him beating Harry, but he was unable to get through it after he escaped, so he forgot about it?
In addition, how to get the resurrection stone back from Voldemort’s hands is also a problem. If Voldemort’s IQ is really online, he won’t put that thing around, at least he will find a completely safe place. In addition, Lockhart is not sure whether Voldemort used the resurrection stone when producing the Inferi.
Whether it was intentional or not, if Voldemort succeeded in his robbery, he would know from Bella that Dumbledore and others were looking for his Horcrux. In that case, he would only keep the only remaining Resurrection Stone firmly by his side, just like Nagini.
Lockhart attached great importance to the biggest “change” between this and his known. If he was certain that Dumbledore could find the rest of the Horcruxes, he decided to take care of the trouble himself.
If possible, Lockhart intends to solve it together with the troubles of little Crouch. Anyway, little Crouch has completed his task now, and it is of no use value to himself, and it will only change if he keeps it. .
After Dumbledore finds the locket, he should pay more attention to the Horcrux. He has no time to care about politics in a short period of time, and he can show his talents in both aspects at the same time.
Sirius took Harry out, and Moody and Professor McGonagall who were left behind also contacted Flitwick and Sprout to prepare for another dean meeting.
Lockhart, with a small calculation, was also about to run away, but was stopped by someone
“Professor Lockhart! Can we… can we talk?” Hermione stammered.
Before speaking, she took several deep breaths in a row, and then she stared straight at Lockhart, apparently after overcoming great difficulties in her heart before she made up her mind.
Chapter three hundred and eighty nine
Lockhart didn’t expect Hermione to be waiting for him here, let alone that she was suddenly going to talk to him, and she looked quite serious.
“Sure, but what do you want to talk about?” he asked.
He got an immediate answer: “Something I have to figure out today.
Listen to her: Lockhart thought Hermione would talk to him about the house-elf courier, but when he found an empty classroom and welcomed Hermione in and sat down, he realized that was not the case at all. matter.
“I want to say… I’m sorry, sir!” Hermione said suddenly.
“Huh?” Lockhart was surprised. “I thought we could call each other by name… well, Miss Granger, why are you apologizing?”
“No!” Hermione waved her hand and shook her head quickly, as if she could get rid of “Miss Janglanger” that bad name, “I didn’t mean that, I meant .oo Lockhart… oh my god, I’m really not used to it… you’d better call me Hermione. “
Lockhart promised her with a smile: “Okay, Hermione! So, why are you suddenly apologizing?”
“Because…” Hermione twisted her hand uncomfortably, “I mean, you don’t need to be… risky, especially for us.”
Lockhart looked surprised: “What are you referring to?”
Seeing that the words had been spoken, Hermione’s speech speed became much more normal. She simply said everything she wanted to say in one breath, like pouring beans into a bamboo tube.
“Harry and Professor Moody both told us that you went on a dangerous mission in Harry’s place, didn’t you? No… Please don’t interrupt me yet. Of course I know that Harry is
My good friend, I don’t want him to have any accident either, but if it’s our responsibility, I don’t want you to shoulder it for us. “
Only then did Lockhart know that Hermione was talking about what happened during the day.
“You’re talking about this… don’t worry, since we knew that Voldemort was targeting Harry, we had a plan like this…”
“The plan, let you take the risk of Harry instead of yourself?” Hermione looked a little angry.
Lockhart had no idea why she was angry.
Lockhart tried to make it clear to her: “With great power comes great responsibility. You see, I can say without boasting that, aside from Dumbledore, I am the most capable member of the Order of the Phoenix – if I If you don’t go, who else can get out of there? Especially when you’re facing down on the ground—”
“Yes “Mysterious man’! “Hermione almost yelled, Newell taught me that name is a real name…you know it!”
Well, Mysterious Man. It doesn’t matter though, I managed to get back from there. “
Lockhart tried to dismiss the matter with a frivolous gesture, but Hermione didn’t seem to want to let him go.
She stared straight at Lockhart with no sign of backing down on her face.
“We were supposed to deal with You-Know-Who, right? We’re Harry’s friends.”
“Look what you said…I used to be your teacher too.”
“But it had nothing to do with you! I regret it now, you know? When I saw your wand was in Harry’s place all the time, my mind was running wild, if I hadn’t gone to you then…”
“Which time?” Lockhart recalled with difficulty.
That’s it! The time you washed my memory away! I…”
Speaking of which, Hermione looked a little embarrassed, because it reminded her that she used to cry in each other’s arms.
In short, if I hadn’t looked for you at that time, wouldn’t you have done so much? ‘ she questioned.
Lockhart blinked, as if thinking hard about her question.
But it doesn’t need to think about it, it’s obvious – I want to be the Minister of Magic!
“No, I should, because I also have my own purpose,” Lockhart said simply.
Seeing him like this, Hermione hesitated instead: “Are you comforting me? You don’t have to.
“Absolutely not,” Lockhart repeated. “I suggest you don’t think of me so noble, Hermione, I know I’m just a sucker, okay?”
“Bad, bad guy?” Hermione didn’t expect him to say that about herself.
Lockhart felt that since Hermione was as determined to go into politics as herself, and she was one of the important members of the party she was planning to form, she might as well say some things as soon as possible, so as not to have a name in Hermione’s eyes. Filter for “Saint”.
Although it is cool to be worshipped, it will undoubtedly create a “superego” that goes against his own principles, which is completely inconsistent with Lockhart’s original intention.
Damn, bad guy. “Lockhart simply said, “You think my starting point for doing things is morality, but I am very clear that I am doing it for profit. In other words, I will not do anything without profit, so you can do whatever you want.” Don’t worry, I didn’t just because of your crying…”
“No crying!” Hermione’s face flushed again, “It was just…
Too much force, out of control…”
“Haha…” Lockhart laughed, wearing makeup, out of control… I just wanted to say that whether it’s exploring the Chamber of Secrets or dealing with Voldemort, it’s all for myself, okay? “
Hermione lowered her head and fell silent.
Seeing that she didn’t speak, Lockhart thought that the misunderstanding had been resolved, so he wanted to explain a few more words, and then hurried back to assign the task that Dumbledore explained.
“Okay, don’t worry now? You don’t have to blame yourself for this, let alone worry about me, don’t forget, I’m a master of anti-dark magic! Besides, I think the house elf union program you wrote last time is very good, But for pure blood acceptance, I recommend.

“No, you’re not.” Hermione raised her head suddenly and said firmly.
“Huh?” Lockhart didn’t understand what she meant. “What isn’t it?”
“I mean, you’re not that kind of person,” Hermione repeated again. “You do care about us, and you’re not all for profit.”
Lockhart could hardly laugh or cry.
He opened his arms exaggeratedly: “God, even if I were to defeat the mysterious man, I don’t think it would be more difficult not to talk to you! It’s not something to brag about to admit that I’m a rotten person, I’m guilty of spreading this. Liar? Well, if you insist on not believing what I am saying now, but believing what is written in my book…”
But Hermione was unmoved: “Then why are you going back to take care of that Muggle?”
Lockhart again failed to react in time: “What Muggle?”
“I mean, at the World Cup, you fought off the Death Eaters.”
“That’s to promote the authority of the Ministry of Magic, and to gain some of my personal reputation…” Lockhart firmly denied.
Hermione didn’t believe it at all: “But in that case, why did you insist on taking care of the camp guard’s family?”
Lockhart raised his eyebrows: “I don’t remember it, it didn’t say in the papers.
Ur probably didn’t know, I was there at the time. Hermione debunked him. “The flares in the distance were all on, and your colleague–it seems to be called Delix– urged you to leave quickly, but you insisted on confirming that there was no problem with the house before leaving.” “
Lockhart didn’t expect that someone actually watched the whole thing at the time: “That… Maybe it’s just a whim, or if you leave it alone, your conscience is too uneasy.”
“Ha, conscience! Is that what a rotten person should have?” Hermione showed a smile that finally succeeded.
Lockhart felt himself starting to get a little confused: “If you tell me so much
Just to prove that I am a noble person, then forget it! After you get in touch with me more, you will regret today’s judgment. “
“No, I won’t.” Hermione’s tone became more and more firm, “My father told me, “Sophisticated’ is not evil, it is often just helpless, and knowing the sophistication but not sophistication is the kindest mature. . “
For some reason, Lockhart felt a fever in his face.
“Your father is really good, it’s a pity to be a dentist.” He smiled feigningly relaxed
“Also, stop calling yourself a rotten person.” Hermione added.
“Why? I thought it was my freedom.” Lockhart asked deliberately. Hermione blurted out: “If you’re really a rotten person, then what’s the point of me being obsessed with you?”
The air suddenly froze.
Lockhart’s brain began to spin quickly, trying to help its owner figure it out
Chu status
And Hermione seemed to say this without going through a ditch in her brain, staring at Lockhart for two or three seconds before she realized what she had just said.
She screamed and ran out of the classroom with her face covered, so that students who passed by thought something had escaped from the classroom.
Chapter 390 Do your job well
To be honest, Lockhart is having a headache now.
He thought that Hermione only put on a filter, just like a little girl in adolescence to her idol. When she gets older and sees the truth, she will laugh at her childishness, but he underestimated Hermione’s toughness. .
He doesn’t understand, he has been in the Ministry of Magic for two years, and he has done a lot of things during this period. The Iron Triangle should have known what he has done from various angles and channels, even in private life. He didn’t even try to hide it.
Anyway, it’s a wizard… As long as you’re not married, as long as you like it, no matter how you mess around, it’s not a big problem. It’s like Fred and George, at Fleur’s wedding scene, went directly to the woods with Fleur’s cousins. . Everyone saw it, but no one blamed them.
If that’s the case, it’s really a headache, girls are too precocious now, let alone a 15-year-old girl like Hermione, even a 12- or 3-year-old girl knows how to hold small fresh meat” Husband, husband” called out.
Is the halo effect of idols really that strong?
Walking out of the castle, Lockhart happened to see Snape walking into the castle with his head down.
He looked preoccupied, and went straight down the stairs without even hearing a hello to him, looking like he wanted to report to Dumbledore.
But Lockhart knew that Dumbledore was not there now, and if he wanted to go up, he would have to wait a long time.
So Lockhart stopped him.
“Severus! The Headmaster just went with Harry!”
After hearing the word “Dumbledore”, Snape woke up like a dream
Over the top.
“Thank you, Chief Lockhart, but I can wait,” he said coldly.
Lockhart raised his eyebrows, seemingly surprised by Snape’s indifference.
But he immediately came to his senses – Snape should have had his brain “scanned” by the Dark Lord, and this guy had begun to pay attention to keeping his distance from other members of the Order of the Phoenix.
Now that the Dark Mark had reappeared on the Arms of the Death Eaters, Voldemort should have summoned the Death Eaters who were still willing to answer the call. Lockhart was very curious as to how many die-hard Death Eaters were there.
Lockhart thought, and asked, “How many Death Eaters are there?”
