Harry Potter's Dharma

After Lockhart finished speaking, the disgust in Zheng Fan's eyes slowly dissipated and was replaced by a deep smile.

It was a smile of schadenfreude.

This Lockhart really wasn't stupid. There were too few descriptions of him in the original work, so everyone's impression of him was only that he was stupid. In fact, if one thought about it carefully, one would know that if he was only as stupid as he was in the original work, how could he have fooled so many people and become a big star in the wizarding world?

He was doing very well now.

Zheng Fan was amused when she saw Lockhart's embarrassed expression.

Lockhart knew very well that his identity as an adventurer was no different from a piece of paper in the eyes of many noble wizards. Many of them knew that he was a liar, but they were too lazy to say it, or they didn't say it out of respect for him as a pure wizard.

Over the years, he had published many books, such as "Breaking Ties with the Female Ghost", "Traveling with the Ghoul", "Vacation with the Hag", and so on. In these books, he recorded the process of his battles with various magical creatures, but in fact, these were all stories collected from wizards who had experienced these things, not his own experiences. After collecting the stories and memories, and after confirming that they could be written into a book, Lockhart would secretly use a Memory Charm to erase these people's memories.

With this magical technique and low limit, Lockhart's books were very popular, and they looked as if they were real.

Just because the adult wizards didn't say anything didn't mean that the students wouldn't. These students had been educated in the West since they were young, so they didn't know the rules at all. If they didn't agree with Lockhart, they might expose him. Therefore, Lockhart cleverly came to the leader of Slytherin. He wanted to prevent the students from revealing his true identity.

Zheng Fan squinted his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and crossed his legs comfortably.

Seeing that Zheng Fan did not speak, James naturally pretended to be deaf and mute, as if his mind was elsewhere.

After a long time, when Lockhart was almost unable to take it anymore, Zheng Fan spoke.

"What can you offer?"

Hearing this, Lockhart perked up. I'm not afraid of you asking for a high price, I'm afraid you won't accept it!

"One thousand Garen!"

Lockhart did not hesitate to throw out a high price that he thought was simply heaven-defying. At the same time, he gave Zheng Fan a smug look, as if to say, "Have you ever seen so much money?"

"Ha …" Zheng Fan shook her head helplessly. She reached into her portal bag and took out a silver key. She shook it in front of Lockhart. "Professor, that money of yours is more than enough to fool Gryffindor's students. Isn't it a bit funny to bribe me?"

The moment he saw the silver key, Lockhart was stunned.

"Gringotts silver key?!"

The corners of his eyes twitched in disbelief.

What did a thousand Galleons represent in London in this era?

Three years later in the original novel, Harry Potter gave a thousand Garen's to the Weasley brothers, and the two of them opened a shop in the financial center of the wizarding world, Diagon Alley!

Any student would find it hard to refuse a huge sum of money to open a shop in Diagon Alley. Lockhart also believed that Zheng Fan would definitely agree. In the end, Zheng Fan casually took out a silver key that represented more than 20,000 RMB!

Is this guy really a student?

Even the descendants of those ancient nobles did not have so much money to spend!

Take Malfoy for example. His family was indeed rich, but he could only spend 300 Garen's!

Lockhart opened his mouth for a long time before regaining his senses.

Zheng Fan looked at him. "Professor, I don't have time to waste with you. I just got on the bus and I'm very sleepy. I'll just tell you the conditions … … First, you have to teach me the technique of the Amnesia Spell. Don't hide anything from me. Second, you have to listen to my arrangements while you're teaching at Hogwarts. If I tell you to do something, you have to do it, okay?"

"What … …" Lockhart's eyes widened. "Student Zheng, your joke is a bit too much. I'm a professor, how can I listen to your orders?

Since you're fooling the professor, I can only pretend that I didn't come looking for you. I'll leave now … …

"Professor, please don't get it wrong."

Zheng Fan rubbed his temples and sat up. "The problem now is not whether you want to make a deal with me. I've already planned to talk about this problem. Even if you didn't come looking for me, I would have looked for you when we arrived at Hogwarts. If you can't accept my conditions, I can only assume that … … even if the students know your true colors, you don't care."

".~!!”

Lockhart looked at Zheng Fan in shock. He did not expect this at all.

Is this really a second-year student???

Under Zheng Fan's gaze, Lockhart suddenly had the illusion that he was a toad that had been targeted by a snake. It was as if he had fallen into Zheng Fan's control!

A few minutes later, Lockhart walked out of Slytherin's coach in a daze. He had lost. He could have won against so many famous explorers, but in front of Zheng Fan, for some reason, he did not dare to act rashly.

In the coach, Zheng Fan watched Lockhart leave and lay back down on the chair.

"Timid as a mouse. If he had the Animagus form, he would definitely be a mouse."

Hearing this, James nodded. "But I can also understand him. When he was negotiating with you, he was under a lot of pressure. I was actually looking forward to him making a move. If he made a move, I would be able to see how powerful you are."

"Make a move?

How can he make a move against me? Using amnesia magic to turn my brain into mush? "

Zheng Fan sighed. At this moment, the other leaders of the class arrived. They knocked on the door and walked in.

"Looks like the coach is about to depart … … Hmm, James, get ready. I'll be patrolling the coach at seven."

Another update. I'm hopeless. There's no point in scolding me.

This world is really cruel.
