Harry Potter’s Defense Professor

Chapter 102 Borrowing money and looking for help

"It's settled, Professor!" Ginny exclaimed excitedly.

Lockhart winked at Ginny and said happily, "Well, you guys talk, I'll go first."

"Where are you going, Professor," Hermione asked.

Lockhart walked to the door and turned his head, but instead of answering Hermione's question, he quickly took out his wand - "Legilimity!"

Poor Harry was about to say goodbye to Lockhart, but he was attacked again unexpectedly——

...In the abandoned classroom, Umbridge rushed in aggressively and demanded that they disband HA... Hermione and her backed up and got deducted... Then everyone went back to their dormitories... Neville found a magical place - the Response Room... …

Harry spent all his energy trying to resist Lockhart's invasion. He nearly fell to the ground in sweat, but Ginny hugged him.

"Yes, Harry, but it's too slow, you obviously forgot my words again, always be vigilant!" Lockhart put away his wand, and then answered Hermione's question: "I'm going out to do something, you help me Don't be busy, get ready for school."

When Lockhart returned to his room, he found that Brother George had followed him in.

"Hey, don't you really want to learn Occlumency with me?" Lockhart sat down on the bed and looked at the twin brothers.

"Professor, we have something to ask for your help."

"And it's something that everyone can make a fortune in."

Lockhart smiled, he was not short of money at all, but he didn't mind a little more money: "Tell me."

"We want to open a toy store in Hogsmeade, but we don't have enough money. We want to ask you to borrow some money."

"A toy store? Hogsmeade? So you must have some money, where did it come from?" Lockhart asked curiously. "Why not open it in Diagon Alley?"

"The prize money for the Triwizard Tournament was split equally between Harry and Diggory, and Harry gave us the money... We want to drive in Diagon Alley too, but we still have school!"

"I see," Lockhart rubbed his chin, "but why do you think a professor would support you in opening a shop selling escaping candy? What do you think of me?"

George and Fred rushed up immediately, each grabbing Lockhart's arm and acting like a spoiled child: "Professor, we promise not to make skipping candy as our main business!" "If necessary, we will register all students who buy skipping candy. I'll give you your name!"

- If Ginny and Hermione acted coquettishly at him like that, he would have enjoyed it. But the words of two unlovable boys... Lockhart was horrified by the two of them, and immediately surrendered: "Okay, okay, how much do you want."

"Just know that the professor is a good person!"

"One thousand gold Galleons is enough!"

"So much!" Lockhart took out the parchment and gave them a magic invoice. "Do your parents know about this?"

"Professor! Don't tell our parents!"

"We can give you some shares!"

"I guess so, Arthur and Molly have always wanted you to graduate and work at the Ministry of Magic!" Lockhart handed them the check, "but if your grades are seriously affected, I don't care if my shares go to waste, you know. !"

"Understood Professor!"

"Welcome to visit!"

Lockhart doesn't really support their brothers in doing this, but they are both grown ups, and if it's only a thousand Galleons, he has no reason not to borrow it, and it's because he interfered and disrupted the game last year. Although he saved Diggory, he didn't. As a result, Harry did not win the championship and only got half of the prize money, which is a bit embarrassing to say.

After being disturbed by the brothers, Lockhart almost forgot what he wanted to do next. After sitting in bed for a few minutes, he suddenly remembered. Lockhart was going out to find Moody, and if possible he hoped he could accompany him to France against the giants.

——

"Scrimgeour promised you? With his temper, how is that possible." Moody was surprised, "Dumbledore asked you to do this."

"I've always been good at persuading people," Lockhart boasted. "I wanted to do this myself, and that old Dumbledore would never let me hurt a giant."

"I support you in principle, little Gilderoy. This kind of thing that threatens our career and life safety should not be judged by morality, let alone soft-hearted, but if you go to France... it's too exaggerated. Others go. ?" Moody was referring to the rest of the Order of the Phoenix.

"No, this time all the Aurors went there. They didn't receive professional training, so they could only drag their feet when they went there."

"Okay, I just haven't been to France, so I'm going to play with little Gilderoy!" Moody moved in his chair to make himself more comfortable, and then said easily.

"This isn't going to play!" Lockhart defended feebly. In Moody's eyes, he was always the eighteen-year-old Auror applicant.

After that, Lockhart went to the Ministry of Magic several times to get acquainted with the personnel of this event. Scrimgeour was already arranging for them to infiltrate France, and they would set off in a few days.

In the last few days, Lockhart reviewed his French, and although there were several meetings of the Aurors accompanying him, it was always good to be prepared.
