Marvel's Hogwarts Wizards

Chapter 211 The Idol Collapsed (Fifth Watch)

The next day, at nine o'clock in the morning.

Jerry finished his meditation practice and returned to the room from the box.

"Sure enough, no matter where it is, reporters are the fastest in this kind of thing, faster than the police!"

Hearing the noisy voices outside, Jerry knew that last night's actions had had corresponding effects.

Sure enough, as soon as he opened the door, he saw the door of Lockhart's room a few rooms away from him, and several reporters from the Daily Prophet had already blocked the door.

"Mr. Lockhart, please open the door and explain, about you using the Oblivion Curse to steal other people's experience and write a book, is it a fabrication or a real thing, and the "True Lockhart", is it written by you yourself?"

"I said, I don't understand what you are saying, everything in my book is my own experience, what "The Real Lockhart", there was never such a book, I only have an autobiography "Magic Me" "!"

The door didn't open, but Lockhart's distraught voice came from inside.

Just then, two young wizards in suits came to Lockhart's door:

"Mr. Lockhart, we are the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic's action team. Now, please come with us to the Ministry of Magic for investigation!"

"Look, I told you that you will not be able to attend today's signing event!"

Seeing this, Jerry smiled, passed the Aurors and reporters blocking Lockhart's door, and walked downstairs to the first floor of the Leaky Cauldron.

He was going to try breakfast at the Leaky Cauldron.

In all his time at the Leaky Cauldron, he hadn't tasted the food at the Leaky Cauldron once.

"Well, no wonder business has been bad!"

After taking a bite of steak, Jerry couldn't help frowning.

Although he likes to eat well-cooked steaks, that doesn't mean that the steaks can't be chewed. Well-cooked doesn't necessarily make them stale. There is still a difference.

Diagon Alley is the only magical street in London and the largest gathering place for wizards in the UK.

The Leaky Cauldron is the only bar in Diagon Alley, the only place where you can eat seriously.

In such a place, the daily business is so-so. It can be seen that the management level of the boss Tom is indeed not very good, and the drinks are probably better.

However, following the principle of not wasting food, Jerry ate all the steaks.

Although the steak is too old to bite, his teeth are not comparable to that of ordinary people. After all, he can eat the rock cakes made by Hagrid.

"Jerry, Jerry!"

Jerry had just finished his breakfast and got up from his seat when he heard a familiar voice coming from the door of the bar.

Turning his head to look, it was Hermione who the letter had promised him to come and buy the second grade textbooks today.

I saw Hermione waving her small hand to Jerry, and then rushed over excitedly and hugged Jerry.

"Long time no see, Jerry!"

"Long time no see, Hermione, oh, you look taller!"

Jerry patted Hermione on the back, let go of her, and said in surprise.

During a summer vacation of two and a half months, Hermione seemed to have grown half a head taller. Sure enough, girls developed earlier than boys.

Hermione was born on September 19, 1979, and Harry was born on July 31, 1980. In terms of age, Hermione is actually nearly one year older than Harry.

If Hermione had been born twenty days earlier, then she would have received the admission letter not last year but the year before.

So, shortly after school started, when Harry and the others were still twelve years old, Hermione should be considered thirteen years old, which was the age at which girls developed and grew the fastest.

"In terms of height, you have changed more than me!"

Hermione compared and found that she was not even where Jerry's eyes were.

"Cough! Cough! Cough!"

At this moment, a cough came from behind Hermione, it was her father, Mr. Granger.

Seeing this, Jerry hastily and elegantly bowed to the Granger couple:

"Good morning, Mr. Granger, and Mrs. Granger!"

"Good morning, Jerry, between the boy and the girl, it's still going to be. Whoops!"

When Mr. Granger was halfway through speaking, Mrs. Granger pinched him in the back:

"Jerry, don't listen to Uncle's nonsense, listen to Hermione say that you take good care of him in school, and you are also the best student in school, get along well with Hermione in the future!"

Seeing Mrs. Granger's friendly smile, Jerry froze for a moment, but still nodded subconsciously.

"That's as it should be, Hermione and I are very good friends!"

In the world of "Harry Potter", if you want to say that the person with the best relationship is Hermione.

From the first meeting in Diagon Alley at the beginning of school, to the train later, and in the Hogwarts library, Jerry communicated with Hermione the most.

Although by this time, with his magical knowledge and background, Hermione was of little help to him.

However, if Hermione was in any danger, he would certainly not stand idly by.

"We should go to Gringotts to exchange for Galleons!"

Hermione blushed slightly, and pulled Jerry towards the magic wall in the backyard of the Leaky Cauldron.

"Harry, are they coming to Diagon Alley today?"

Watching Hermione use her wand to open the passage leading to Diagon Alley, Jerry asked Hermione.

"Come here, Ron wrote me back saying that they will use Floo powder to go directly to Diagon Alley to buy today. However, I suggest that he better change to an owl. I'm going to die!"

Hermione also made fun of Errol, Ron's owl, as she answered.

As soon as she stepped onto the streets of Diagon Alley, Hermione immediately sensed that something was wrong.

Because it was different from usual, everyone was buying the items they needed in front of various shops. At this time, many wizards gathered together in twos and threes, talking about it while flipping through a very crude-looking book.

"What happened to them?"

Hermione looked puzzled.

"Who knows, but I think it might have something to do with that wizard named Gilderoy Lockhart!"

Jerry shrugged.

"Gilderoy Lockhart! What's the matter with that great famous writer?"

Hermione's eyes lit up immediately. For a book lover like her, a great writer like Lockhart was her idol.

"There's something wrong with him!"

So, Jerry recounted the questions he heard about those reporters after he went out this morning, and the scene where he finally saw the Auror appear to take Lockhart away.

Hermione's first reaction after hearing it was disbelief. It's not that she didn't believe what Jerry said, but she didn't believe that Lockhart was the person the reporter said.

She didn't believe that the idol she admired turned out to be a liar, a despicable person who could only use the forgetting curse to steal other people's experiences.

"Hermione, don't think too much, wait for the news from the Ministry of Magic, some things are hard to say until the results come out!"

Seeing that Hermione's mood seemed to drop a lot, Jerry comforted her.

It’s normal for idols to collapse. It’s hard to accept at first, but when you really realize it, you’ll accept it. It’s no big deal.
