The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 220 Lockhart is hated by men and dogs by dogs.

Every word sounds like admiration for Gilderoy Lockhart, and every word sounds like it's for Lockhart, but in fact these words are like a knife poking into Lockhart's pain point. .

Being sought after and admired by others over the years, Lockhart enjoyed his success and knew why he was where he was today, so he never showed his magic in front of others.When he received the appointment at Hogwarts, Lockhart didn't want to agree, but he really couldn't resist the temptation of Harry Potter and the temptation of teaching the Savior.

As long as he accepts the letter of appointment, the great Lockhart will become the teacher of the Savior and assume the important task of teaching the Savior. When people mention Harry in the future, they will also mention his teacher Gilderoy Lockhart, even if this The letter of appointment was poison, and Lockhart, who valued fame and fortune very much, had to drink it.

What's more, Lockhart doesn't think this is completely poisonous. He thinks he can still cope with the position of teacher. What's so difficult about teaching a group of children?

However, while Lockhart deceived others, he also deceived himself. He is now just a slave to fame and fortune and is no longer a qualified wizard.These years of dreamlike life have made his magic more and more unfamiliar, which is why he made a fool of himself in the first class and had his wand taken away by the Cornish elf. That's why he was speechless under today's questioning and became Clown on stage.

"I am...Gilderoy Lockhart, Sir Merlin...a third-class medalist..." Lockhart stumbled and said. His name and the title of Sir Merlin gave him confidence again. "At the same time, I am still your professor. I will not do anything to harm the students. Although I can control my power and prevent it from hurting you... However, my moral character and identity do not allow me to do this. Something out of the ordinary."

There is nothing wrong with the reasons Lockhart put forward. He is a professor at the school, a recipient of the third-level Order of Merlin, and an honorary member of the Anti-Dark Arts Alliance. Bullying a student is really not what a person like him should do. .

However, this may be credible to others, but it sounds like an excuse to Lockhart.Think about Lockhart’s various deeds after he became a professor. He treated his works as textbooks and forced all students to buy them; he showed Cornish elves in class and the whole class was disrupted; Some people questioned him when he used magic in front of him, thinking that he was just showing off.

It can be said that in the eyes of Hogwarts students, Lockhart has been equated with a liar, and he is just waiting for a real deal.

The students have long lost their trust in Lockhart. Coupled with Ada's soul torture today and his own poor performance, who will believe his words, and who will think that he is different from the "Ji" in the book? "Dero Lockhart" is the same person?

There was a sound of smacking lips in the classroom. This sound made Lockhart feel very harsh, but what the students said next was even more harsh.

"Professor, are you afraid? Drizzt is only a fourth-year student. Is his grade too high? How about changing to a first-year student?"

"Professor, you talk about yourself so much in the book, why can't you show us your skills?"

"Professor, Drizzt is just a female classmate, not Wanlun's female ghost. You can defeat her with just a wave of your hand, so what are you afraid of!"

The students were free to ridicule and humiliate Lockhart, and they made all kinds of weird remarks.It is very rude to ridicule one's teacher, but the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher has been acting like this for two consecutive years, how can the students feel angry?

Why didn't Grover Cecil get ridiculed or abused by his students? It was because Professor Cecil did teach his students a lot of knowledge.Why didn't any students ridicule Benedict Foley unscrupulously? Because Foley did his duty in the first half of the school year.

Although these two people have done evil things, in the hearts of the students, these two are much stronger than Quirrell and Lockhart. If Quirrell and Lockhart can also teach the students conscientiously, these ridicules and Blame simply doesn't happen.

The classroom was full of people, and Lockhart finally couldn't hold it any longer. His flushed face had already turned pale. He announced the end of get out of class with a trembling voice, left the podium without looking back, and stumbled towards his office.

"I believe you, I believe the professor is just afraid of hurting me," Ada's cry echoed in the classroom again, and a tear slipped from the corner of her eye, "Students, think about what the professor has done, his amazing achievements , how could he be a useless person?"

After hearing this, the students stopped talking and laughed together. Ada said she believed it, but in fact she just pointed at Lockhart's nose and called him a waste.Lockhart, who had just walked up the steps, stumbled and almost rolled down the steps. He fled into the office in embarrassment, ignoring the growing jeers outside.

Wiping the crocodile tears from the corners of her eyes, Ada started to pack her things. Since get out of class was over, why were you still here? Are you committing suicide slowly?

Today's actions successfully aroused the classmates' doubts about Lockhart and proved that he is just a waste, but Ada was not happy at all.It is true that Ada hates Lockhart, but if possible, Ada still hopes that he can be as capable as written in the book, instead of coming to school to cheat.

Hogwarts seems to have no secrets. What happened in the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom in the afternoon spread quickly throughout the school. Everyone knew about Lockhart's unbearable behavior, and many people were curious about how Ada knew about it. So much about Lockhart.

In the Gryffindor lounge, Fred asked: "Ada, how do you know about Lockhart's cowhide? That was all when he was in school."

This question happened to be the voice of the people. Everyone in the lounge stopped talking, put down their belongings, and waited for Ada to give everyone an answer.

"I didn't know at first," Ada said, "but someone in the school knew. I just asked them about Lockhart, and then they told them all the lies that Lockhart had boasted about when he was a student. Got me."

Naturally, the classmates don't know Lockhart, but that doesn't mean that no one in the school really knows about Lockhart's past.Many professors in the school have taught Lockhart, such as Professor McGonagall, Professor Sprout, and Professor Flitwick, Lockhart's former dean.

The three professors all had a bad impression of Lockhart. Professor Sprout, who was always amiable, would show disgust when talking about Lockhart.Lockhart is an outstanding representative of Ravenclaw graduates, but Professor Flitwick, the dean of Ravenclaw, also had a bad expression when talking about him. He was obviously telling Ada: Can we not mention it? he.

When he was in school, he was hated by everyone, and he never showed the talent he has today. However, some time after graduation, he transformed into the successful and famous Lockhart he is today. It can be said that he achieved a counterattack in life.

When news of Lockhart's deeds came back from afar, the professors should have felt that they had made a mistake and changed their views on him.But when Lockhart returned to school to teach, the professors showed varying degrees of boredom. They did not receive the treatment that an outstanding graduate should receive from his alma mater. Professor McGonagall was probably the one who hated Lockhart the most.

Angelina said: "This is really ironic. Lockhart may not have thought that the bullshit he boasted back then would embarrass himself so much in the future."

"Suddenly I felt that Lockhart was not so useless as a professor," Alia said. "At least he let us know the consequences of not being down-to-earth and only bragging."

"Shouldn't the so-called lesson be to not offend women?" Li Jordan said without fear of death, "Especially when the woman's surname is Drizzt."

George was thoughtful and said slowly: "From him, I found the meaning of studying hard..."

These words didn't seem to come from the mouths of the Weasley twins, so everyone wanted to know what meaning George had realized.

Fred said eloquently: "Study hard in order to complete the bullshit you boasted about when you were a child."

"So, are you two going to give up your dream of a joke shop and study hard?" Ada asked with a smile, "If so, I will definitely write a letter to Mrs. Weasley to make her happy too."

Fred and George said in unison: "How is it possible! The joke shop is our dream, and all our efforts now are to realize it!"

There was a joyful atmosphere in the lounge, and everyone told what they had boasted about. Others would comment on it and even make some unreliable suggestions.

At this moment, Ada thought of Dumbledore. Ada didn't think that Dumbledore was confused by Lockhart's face. She just couldn't figure out why Dumbledore hired Lockhart. It was really just to expose Lockhart. ?
