Hogwarts: I am Harry's Cousin

Chapter 116 114. Brother Drag: Father, You Are Shameful

Floo network again, Dudley and the others came to Diagon Alley through the fireplace of Longbottom's old house.

Although you can also go to other places to buy, Diagon Alley will always be the most abundant place for Hogwarts to go to school.

Ms. Augusta didn't follow because it was very simple to buy things for school.

Most of the necessities for the second grade are the same as last year, and if you buy them, you don’t have to buy another copy.

It's just that I need to buy new textbooks, and the first grade has already been learned.

The books in Lihen Bookstore are always the most complete except non-orphan books, and you can buy almost all books except contraband.

However, today's Lihen Bookstore is extremely crowded.

A large group of people crowded outside the door, and a huge banner was pulled up upstairs:

Gilderoy Lockhart signs autobiography "I'm Magical" for sale, 12:30-4:30pm today

"Lockhart?"

Neville chanted that name, then turned his head to look at Dudley, and said in a dry tone, "Brother D, I have an ominous premonition."

Dudley nodded, confirming his guess: "I think your hunch is correct, it seems that he is our Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher."

Sure enough, as Dudley's voice fell, an extremely excited male voice came from Lihen Bookstore.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it is with great pleasure and pride that I announce that this September, I will be teaching Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry!"

Neville: Oh shit!

Hermione: 'It's a good thing I already had a plan B. '

Thinking of this, Hermione silently glanced at the other two books in her book list, "Dark Power: A Guide to Counterattack" and "Magic Defense in Practical Combat".

"Look, it's Potter, Harry Potter!"

Someone in the crowd shouted, and then the three of them saw a man dressed like a peacock, who was taking pictures of poor Harry with his arms around him.

Under the bursts of flashing lights, Harry's face was sullen, looking unhappy at all.

Harry felt that he was really unlucky after leaving Dudley's side recently. He used to live well in Weasley's Burrow. Although the house was not big or gorgeous, it was very comfortable to live in. Mrs. Weasley's craftsmanship Not bad, second only to Dudley.

As a result, a ghost thing who didn't know what it was suddenly appeared, and he talked nonsense to punish himself and prevent him from entering school. I disagreed, and the thing disappeared, and then a series of strange things appeared in the Burrow. Strange accidents, the key is to be present every time

After finally coming to buy books at the appointed time, I encountered some autograph session and was forced to come over to take pictures.

He doesn't like being famous. Although he is indeed a celebrity in the wizarding world.

"Hey, what are you doing here? Give it back to me."

An exasperated cry caught Harry's attention.

Then he saw Dudley, who was holding up a big black camera next to a short man trying to wrest it from his hand.

It's a pity that even if he jumped up, he couldn't reach Dudley's shoulders.

"It's for the Daily Prophet, you know? Daily Prophet!"

After several failed attempts, the short man glared at Dudley angrily.

"So?" Dudley said, he didn't compromise just because the other party moved out of the Daily Prophet, on the contrary, he didn't buy it even more, "I think even the Daily Prophet should seek other people's consent before shooting. Harry doesn't I like to take pictures of him."

The Prophet Publishing House, which refused to publish Dudley's novel before, was owned by the Daily Prophet, a third-rate rubbish newspaper with no discernment.

"You're not Mr. Potter, how do you know?"

He roared, trying to push Dudley away, and knocked himself out of the way.

"Brother D." Harry shouted excitedly, and then suddenly remembered Lockhart beside him.

This is their new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Hearing from Mrs. Weasley that he is very powerful, it would be best if he could not be offended.

Contrary to Harry's expectations, instead of being angry, Lockhart was happier.

"Hey, look who I found!"

Lockhart's eyes lit up after seeing Dudley: "Mr. Jerry, the author of "Dragonlance Chronicles."

He let go of Harry's arm, and introduced him with exaggerated but natural body movements, while approaching Dudley's position.

"It beat my new work "I Can Magic" by a slight margin, and won the title of the most popular novel this time."

Lockhart's brash words aroused Hermione's dissatisfaction.

She is a loyal fan of Dudley's novels.

Then there is a slight advantage, obviously crushing in all directions, okay?

Dudley wasn't surprised that Lockhart would know him.

Anyway, this guy has been the best-selling novel in the wizarding world for many years in a row. If Dudley didn't have any connections, I wouldn't believe it.

Moreover, Dudley received the Medal of Merlin Third Class at the first-year year-end dinner in front of all the teachers and students of Hogwarts.

Although that thing is worthless, there are only a handful of people who have won this medal in recent years, and he was the only one last year.

"What day is it today, let me meet two celebrities in a row in this small, simple bookstore."

Lockhart walked in front of Dudley, and originally wanted to pat him on the shoulder like a senior to encourage the junior, but found that the other was half a head taller than him.

‘I’m really sorry that my shop is so small. ’ Although the owner of Lihen Bookstore felt aggrieved in his heart, he was still smiling on the surface.

"Come on, let's take a photo together." Lockhart offered the invitation.

"Mr Lockhart, I don't think so."

Very resolutely refused.

Of course Dudley knew he was promoting his new book.

If he could get Dudley and Harry to be photographed together, tomorrow's headline would have to be, 'Happy news! Mr. Jerry and Harry Potter both showed up, it turned out to be for Lockhart's new book' or "Shocked, what is the relationship between the mysterious Mr. Jerry and Lockhart?"

He doesn't like being used.

And his current home court is at Hogwarts.

There was a commotion in the crowd.

"There's a fight over there!"

In Lihen Bookstore, two adult wizards were wrestling together, and next to them was a pair of twins who were shouting something, as if they were cheering.

"Hit him, Dad."

"Smack him on the nose, hit him on the nose!"

It was the Weasleys and the Malfoys who were at odds.

"Aren't you going to say something, Draco."

Ron walked to Malfoy's side, and pouted at the two parents and comrades who were wrestling together.

After experiencing the level of Wizard Chess, the relationship between Ron and Malfoy has subtly changed a lot.

Although it is right to quarrel and quarrel a lot of times.

Malfoy was silent for a while, then shook his head slightly: "It's like a kid who lost a fight."

‘Father, you told me to be optimistic, you don’t mean that you fight with others, do you? '

'The key father, you are about to lose.'

'What a shame. '
