Harry Potter’s Defense Professor

The semester went smoothly, and the winter break began. Lockhart rejected Pandora's offer to let him visit the Minister of Magic's house because the Order of the Phoenix began to have activities.

Lockhart followed the instructions on the note and came to No. 12 Grimmauld Place. At this time, the Order of the Phoenix was still strong - Dumbledore, Snape, Professor McGonagall, the Weasleys, Kingsley Sand Kerr, Hagrid, Moody, Black, Tonks, Lupin—and some that Lockhart didn’t know—dumbledore didn’t seem ready to introduce him either.

Lockhart noticed that Tonks seemed to have fallen in love with Lupin and had been pestering Lupin over there, while Lupin had a cold look on his face.

"Okay, except for some undercover friends who have endured humiliation and those who are temporarily in business, they are all here." Dumbledore's voice silenced the people who were chatting with Lockhart enthusiastically, "First of all, I wish you all holidays and festivals. hapiness."

"There are indications that Voldemort is back." Dumbledore's second sentence caused a small commotion.

"Of course, we're not afraid - we're together to deal with Voldemort," Dumbledore blinked. "We're experts in that."

Everyone smiled slightly, but also felt the pressure on their shoulders.

"In the long struggle with Voldemort, many comrades were sacrificed, and some people were permanently injured," Dumbledore paused, as if to observe a moment of silence for those people, "but we did not back down and finally defeated him. "

Shameless, obviously Harry defeated Voldemort, Lockhart thought to himself.

"The blood of the martyrs has kept me vigilant." Dumbledore became serious.

"Now—Voldemort is back, and we'll be on guard, and if he shows his teeth, we'll fight back," Dumbledore said firmly. "As long as I live, the fight won't stop!"

Lockhart almost couldn't help but applaud...

Dumbledore continued, "However, the savior in the prophecy is still underage, and we still have to continue to protect him. Of course, the members who work in the school are doing a good job and hope to continue their efforts. I have arranged for the protection of Harry during the winter vacation. Now, the schedule will appear on the relevant personnel's note."

"Blake and Lupin, you are more leisurely, and go to Germany and France, where I have some friends of mine, and ask them for some help, whether in literature or material."

"Hagrid, if you have nothing to do, just communicate more with your non-human friends and win over them. This is not urgent, after all, the mysterious man is still hiding in the dark, you can just walk around during the holidays."

"Friends of the Ministry of Magic, you are the most stressed and most dangerous, because if that person wants to turn over, he will definitely start with the Ministry of Magic. The Ministry of Magic may have been invaded at this moment. Always be vigilant and catch these people out. "

"Members who are hidden in the people, your task is to hide yourself and not expose it. If something goes wrong, you will be the last resistance force, and you must help the savior at the critical moment and complete the mission."

"Finally, I have to regretfully remind everyone that when you get out of this door, you have to call him a mysterious man. This has nothing to do with courage. I don't know if the black magic on that name is restored. For everyone's safety, we can only do Such a small, seemingly cowardly compromise."

Dumbledore emphasized: "Originally, these words could have been passed on a note, but this is our last general gathering, and the next one will be after Voldemort has been killed."

Dumbledore raised his glass: "Cheers to our next meeting!"

"cheers!"

Lockhart looked at the strong Order of the Phoenix in front of him, and there was a trace of sadness in his heart. This was a historic moment. If he didn't know his existence, if he could save a few people, he might not be able to save himself.

"Gildrow, you've done a great job, how did you do that that damn reporter later wrote an article admitting he was a nonsense?" Hagrid thanked Lockhart after the party.

"Simple, rush to her house, the Imperius Curse and a slap in the face, she is as obedient as a kitten now."

Lockhart made a joke, he thought no one would take it seriously, but Hagrid's eyes widened and he grabbed him nervously: "God, you can't do that, it's against the law! You've already You've helped me a lot, stop now, I don't want to see you being sent to Azkaban, it's really not a place to be alone..."

"Let go of Hagrid, you hurt me." Lockhart glared at Hagrid, "Do you believe this kind of joke?"

The Order of the Phoenix did not assign a task to this new member of Lockhart, and he was so happy that he had a happy winter vacation.
