I'm a priest at Hogwarts

Orlando still underestimated Lockhart's shamelessness. No, with the equipment, Lockhart quickly showed off his skills in the classroom, changing his image as a counterfeit and parallel importer in one fell swoop.

"Have you heard about it?" Ron said mysteriously.

"What?" Harry spread sauce on the bread in his hand.

"Lockhart, he taught the fifth grade students today how to cast spells without a wand or a spell. It is said that not even Dumbledore can do it as fast as him."

Orlando squirted out a mouthful of soup.

"What's wrong with you?" Ron looked at him in surprise.

"Nothing, it's expected, it's expected." Orlando wiped his mouth quickly.

"Did he use the magic items you sold him?" Hermione asked suspiciously.

"It must be, do you think we should expose him?" Harry said without thinking.

"It's not good. Orlando just cheated him out of 5000 galleons. Now we jump out. He must know that it's us. Maybe they break up and Lockhart goes to the principal to complain about us cheating money." Otherwise, it will be exposed." Once money was involved, Ron's mind raced quickly.

"Ron is right, let's just pretend we don't know about this." Orlando nodded, the money and goods were cleared, and it was none of his business how the owner of the goods used it.

"This is too cheap for Lockhart, a liar." Harry was a little reluctant. He had long been disgusted with Lockhart's Defense Against the Dark Arts class, especially performing plays on the podium like a clown.

"Be patient, no professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts can stay for a full year anyway. Don't forget that this course is cursed. Maybe we won't see him in the next school year."

"That's really great. I hope I can change to a more powerful professor. Recently, I have been practicing mental power with Orlando. I feel that my magic power has increased a lot, and the power of magic I can cast is also much greater. If I can learn some powerful defense against dark magic, Knowledge, I think it will definitely surprise people when we graduate, and maybe become an Auror." Ron began to dream about the day when he became an Auror.

Ron's words seemed to arouse Harry's interest, and the two had a lively discussion about the Auror issue.

Orlando shrugged. He was a man who admired thousands of great powers in one body. How could he work for the Ministry of Magic? If he had the spare time, he might as well work for two more bowls of rice. After all, nothing is more important to a worker than eating.

"Orlando, what do you want to do in the future?" Harry asked curiously, and Hermione also raised her ears.

"Me? I should engage in magic research, write books when I have nothing to do, and maybe explore the universe when I am successful in my practice." Orlando thought for a while and replied.

Harry and Ron looked at each other, and Hermione was confused. They could understand the first two, but what the hell is exploring the universe?

Before they could continue to ask, Orlando urged: "Hurry up and eat. It's useless to think so far now. If you don't have enough strength, everything is just delusion."

Since being warned by Dumbledore, Orlando has become much more honest. He was not a troublemaker in the first place, but he has recently encountered a bottleneck in his practice. He is looking for some fun to make some extra money and relax his mood. Now that he is in a better mood, he The three-point and one-line state of studying, reading, and practicing has been restored.

"What's the matter, Harry?" Orlando, who was reading in the library, was suddenly interrupted and felt a little unhappy.

"Orlando, Hermione, can you come with me?" Harry and Ron looked nervous.

Hermione glanced at Orlando, closed the book without saying a word, pulled Orlando up and left the library.

"What on earth is going on?" Orlando was a little confused. Today was Saturday, and a good date was disturbed.

"Do you remember the diary, Tom Riddle? It's the owner of this diary. He told me that the monster in the Chamber of Secrets 50 years ago was an eight-eyed spider named Aragog. He also said that Hagrid opened the door to the Chamber of Secrets. . In order to gain my trust, he also took me to see his memory, in which I saw Dumbledore and Hagrid who was expelled from the Ministry of Magic."

"It's obvious that he is lying, and is he deliberately covering up something? If my prediction is correct, it must be Tom Riddle who opened the secret room and released the basilisk." Orlando didn't hold back and pointed it out directly.

"Why?" Ron was a little confused. He couldn't understand how a diary could be so powerful.

"Silly, Hagrid is a student of Gryffindor House, so he can't be the heir of Slytherin. It's obvious that Hagrid was used as a scapegoat 50 years ago. The man behind the scenes wanted to cover up his The crime pushed Hagrid out as a shield and escaped unscathed. As the mastermind behind the scenes, Tom Riddle not only covered up the crime but also gained honor. He thought you were just junior students at Hogwarts and didn't know. We have found out that the monster in the secret room is a basilisk, so we have relaxed our vigilance and checked your memories to lure you into taking the bait. So, this diary must be a dark magic item, and the owner who made it must be Knowing the location of the Chamber of Secrets, we'd better hand it over to Dumbledore, maybe the Headmaster can solve the mystery."

Hermione was indeed the smartest Gryffindor, and she quickly analyzed the causes and consequences of the incident from clues.

Harry and Ron looked at each other. They felt that Hermione was right. If the diary was really the mastermind, then the matter would be serious.

"We will go back to the dormitory to get the diary. We will meet in the principal's office later."

After saying that, they both ran back.

"Let's go, let's go find Dumbledore. I hope we can catch this guy this time."

The two of them arrived at the principal's office one step ahead. Dumbledore's eyes lit up after listening to their analysis, and he seemed to have thought of something.

At this time, Harry and Ron arrived in a hurry. They were sweating profusely. Harry said out of breath, "Oh no, the professor's diary has been lost."

"What? How could the diary be lost?" Hermione was a little unbelievable.

"When we went back, we found that the dormitory had been messed up and the diary was missing." Ron hurriedly added after catching his breath.

Dumbledore was very calm and just said, "Let's go and see the scene."

Orlando shrugged, somewhat in disbelief. The self-healing ability of this plot was too strong. Just now on the way, he was still wondering if they had deviated from the original plot by doing this, but in the end, they fixed a bug for you.

After struggling for a while and finding nothing, Dumbledore didn't say anything. He just told Harry that he must be cautious when encountering such unknown objects with thoughts in the future, and it was best to report them to him as soon as possible.

"A good weekend has been ruined." Orlando muttered dissatisfiedly.

"I'm sorry, Orlando, I didn't expect this." Harry was a little frustrated in the common room. He finally had clues about the person behind the scenes, but now they have lost all clues.

"Okay, don't blame Harry. After all, it's not his fault." Hermione said something fair.

"Let me remind you that this is probably done by someone behind the scenes. If so, you'd better be careful, especially Hermione. You and I are both from Muggle families and can easily become targets." Hermione seemed to think of the original novel. After being petrified and almost not dying from it, Orlando became a little nervous, "I'll take a break from the recent training, and don't go to the Room of Requirement. Especially you, Hermione, try not to leave me alone. Don't leave me until the secret room is found." Stop."

"Orlando, are you too nervous?" Although she felt very grateful for Orlando's concern, she had experienced several adventures and felt that Orlando was a little too nervous.

"Hermione, you have to understand that a wizard's life is more fragile than you think. Don't think I'm being alarmist. I don't want you to regret it after an accident."

She had never seen him so serious before. Hermione was moved but also a little worried. Could it be that Orlando had a premonition of something?

Harry and Ron looked at each other, not realizing the seriousness of the problem.
