After Harry heard the word "Memory Charm", he had a faint realization.For a long time, he couldn't see through Lockhart. He felt that this idiot's appearance should hide unique abilities. Otherwise, how could such an idiot go through so many strange adventures?

You must know that although the main purpose of each of Lockhart's books is to praise his own greatness, the rich and detailed adventure details in it cannot be faked, and those who have not experienced it will definitely not be able to write them.

Now, Harry understood.Lockhart probably stole the memories of a dozen other adventurers and wizards through a special memory spell, stole the exploits of others, and then improved them into his own stories and published them. people.Only in this way can it explain why the same person has so many adventure stories with different styles, different distances, and different wonderful adventures under limited energy.

This gave Harry a deep understanding of the character of wizards in the wizarding world.

Did Dumbledore ask Lockhart to coach for this reason?

Because just put Lockhart in normal school life and his bragging and deceit can be exposed.And students can learn a lot from a bad teacher about what not to do and who not to be.

But is it really worth it to expose a liar by throwing students out of class for a year?

Harry couldn't figure it out.

He just felt that the way the wizarding world passed on knowledge still seemed outdated and random.The structure of the knowledge system of many textbooks seems so outdated and rigid, and the advanced magic is monopolized by the big family. Even the really "useful" things in Hogwarts are mostly hidden in the forbidden and book areas.All teachers are more or less inclined to hide their secrets, and they are only willing to teach the real core knowledge to their confidant students.For example, Snape was only willing to teach Harry and Draco his exclusive inventions and discoveries.The same goes for other professors.

The method of skill inheritance here is more like the apprenticeship inheritance method that was popular in the Muggle world before the Industrial Revolution, and the core knowledge is only passed on in a small amount between masters and disciples.Hogwarts is more like a primary and secondary school that does simple basic education. It only teaches you until you are 17 years old, and only teaches you for seven years.

No wonder there are fewer and fewer powerful wizards, no wonder advanced magic is declining.

Harry thought of the ever-changing technological civilization of the Muggles.

If things go on like this, the wizarding world will either be blackened, and the upper-level decision makers and scientists in the Muggle world will be controlled through black magic spells such as the Imperius Curse.

Or, it will be trampled underfoot by the Muggle world.

The original intention of Hogwarts was to build a paradise to hide wizards from the sight of Muggles and avoid the persecution of Muggles in the Middle Ages.

But thousands of years have passed, and today, after Muggles have experienced the industrial revolution, especially today, it seems that the information revolution is still going on, wizards all over the world still regard the "International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy" as the golden rule, The magic world still continues to pursue the policy of "closing the country behind closed doors" thousands of years ago.The abilities of wizards are not advancing but regressing. The limited inventions and progress in productivity are all improved from outdated and obsolete tools of Muggles—such as the Hogwarts Express, which is improved from the steam that has long been eliminated by Muggles. train.Is this really good?

But what if we don't continue to close the country?

Whether it is productivity, production methods, or industrial chain structure, etc., the magic world is as old as the Middle Ages of Muggles. It seems that wizards have not made any progress in all aspects for thousands of years.

And the crucial financial system, oh, there doesn't seem to be a financial system in the wizarding world.Gringotts, which is guarded by goblins, seems to only have the function of storing and easily exchanging currency.

The education system, so be it.

Art style and entertainment?So be it.

Not even movies and TV, what else can you expect?All count on Quidditch to entertain the spiritual world?To be honest, fortunately, Harry is a Seeker, otherwise he really can't guarantee that he will love this unreasonable game that is almost completely dependent on the Seeker alone.

Seekers are completely out of the team, and catching the Snitch is worth 150 points in one fell swoop.This kind of rule completely violates the sportsmanship of fairness, competition, limit and teamwork.

What, the snitch must be caught to determine the end time of the game?You can't buy a watch!

Once the Muggles know that there is such a magical world behind the high walls, will the fragile and outdated social system of the magic world really withstand the impact of the colorful Muggle society?

Will it collapse?Will it collapse?Surely it will?

So, does the "Muggle Protection Act" protect Muggles or wizards?

Harry suddenly felt creepy.

He suddenly and inexplicably thought of the two copies of "The Times" and "Daily Telegraph" that Hedwig brought to him from Dudley a few days ago. The government's latest policy white paper, "Realizing Our Potential: A Science, Engineering and Technology Strategy", was published on 1993 May 5.

There is only one word throughout: science.

The white paper emphasizes:

【The future of the UK lies in science, and science and technology is the key to the development of the UK economy.Effective partnerships must be formed between industry, the scientific base, and government to harness the power of science and technology to create national wealth and improve people's quality of life. 】

Harry didn't want to think about it any further.These things are all too grand and difficult topics for him at the age of 12, and they belong to the deep sea that he dare not and cannot touch now.

He shook his head, leaving behind all the absurd associations he had made at this moment, and turned around to chase and fight with Ron and the others.The twins have just invented a trick to trick people, as long as they drink the potion they invented, various animal traits will grow on their bodies.

George mixed the potion into strawberry milk and coaxed the younger students to drink it one by one.Hermione grew a pair of cat ears, Ron grew a dog's tail, Neville's face was covered with lion fur, Seamus became a mouse nose, Ginny's hands became horseshoes, and Colin's arms became Rabbit fur grew.

The entire Gryffindor lounge was in chaos.

The remaining days of the Hogwarts summer semester were spent in the dazzling sunshine, everyone was laughing and laughing wantonly, beautifully and heartlessly, discussing gossip and gossip in various tabloids and magazines.

That's right, how could the thrills of Hogwarts this school year not be spread and recorded by the media?Especially The Quibbler.

Last year, The Quibbler revealed how Harry burned Quirrell to death by firing lightning through the scar on his forehead.This year, it explained the truth of a conspiracy that Dumbledore teamed up with the Ministry of Magic to hide.

The acromantula is not a murderer at all!

The real murderer is Gilderoy Lockhart!

"The Quibbler" describes in detail Lockhart's private process of pinching cocks, writing in blood, and turning students into stone.Even the details of Lockhart wearing a red wig and women's nightdress to brutally abuse cats in the middle of the night are clearly explained.

And the acromantula was only pushed out to take the blame, in order to cover up the shocking scandal of the Medal of Merlin winner!The Ministry of Magic tried in vain to imprison Lockhart in St. Mungo's, so that the major incidents can be reduced to minor ones!And these are all corruption, embezzlement, and conspiracy of the upper-level wizards headed by Dumbledore!A strong epitome of social injustice!

It's a pity that this issue of "The Quibbler" has attracted condemnation from housewives, who don't believe that the great Lockhart will do such a thing, but male readers are very interested in the conspiracy theories in this issue.

In the end, due to the popularity of the topic, "The Quibbler" sold even better than last year.

Following the execution of the murderer, Mr. Lucius Malfoy, the school manager, evacuated Hogwarts with the reporters of the Daily Prophet, and the students were reluctant to part with him.

On the morning he left, all the Slytherins, Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws gave him a standing ovation, with the exception of some Gryffindors.We sincerely appreciate and love this outstanding trustee who helped to find out the truth about the Hogwarts attack, brought safety and comfort to the campus, and most importantly, brought a lot of financial support.

Some sensual and delicate girls even shed tears of sorrow for the departure of the noble and handsome Lucius Malfoy, just as they mourned the departure of the great and charming Professor Lockhart from Hogwarts a few days ago.Fortunately, Lucius repeatedly emphasized to his fans that his son was studying at Hogwarts, and if he had the opportunity, he would come to Hogwarts to see everyone and his son from time to time.

And Mr. Arthur Weasley was punished by the Ministry of Magic for possessing a black magic item-the diary.Given that Riddle's diary was originally a Muggle item, and Mr. Weasley was in the "Misuse of Muggle Items Division", he was sentenced by Minister Fudge to a three-day confinement in a small dark room in his own division.Although the punishment is not serious, it is more or less an extremely embarrassing and embarrassing thing.

This led to another row between Ron and Draco for several days.

Ron insisted that his family had been wronged.From the diary appearing at Weasley's house, to Riddle manipulating Ginny to release the basilisk to attack the students, to being suspicious and suspicious by the students headed by Hufflepuff Ernie, to Ginny being fed and vomited in private The real potion, and finally Mr. Weasley was punished by the Ministry of Magic, and so on.All of this was a conspiracy designed by Lucius Malfoy.

Even Percy was said by Ron to be an undercover agent of the Malfoy family in the Weasley family.

Draco, of course, firmly refused to admit it.

Draco believed that his father was doing his duty as a law-abiding citizen of the wizarding world by reporting on Mr. Weasley to Minister Fudge.Draco emphasized that the series of attacks at Hogwarts were successfully resolved thanks to his father's wise and decisive means.If his father hadn't entered Hogwarts to find the diary and Ginny, the Basilisk would at least have been arrogant for a long time and would attack more students.

The platinum boy thought that even Dumbledore should be very grateful to his father. Without his father's guarantee, how could Dumbledore always be the headmaster under so many attacks?

Harry and Hermione persuaded the boys a few times, but neither Draco nor Ron would back down.In the end, Harry and Hermione didn't bother to care about the fight between the two boys.Hermione even jokingly said: "Never mind them, Harry. Let these two pureblood boys quarrel! We two non-purebloods are the poor little ones who need to hug each other for warmth."

In short, the remaining months of this semester.It just passed away so noisy and happily in the dazzling summer sun.In a blink of an eye, they were going home on the Hogwarts Express.

The author has something to say: *In the years when Harry was born in the UK, the economy was in recession, the unemployment rate was rising, inflation was severe, and the pound crisis was intensifying. JK Rowling himself was living on government relief money.It was not until Major came to power in the 1993 general election that the new government established the Office of Science and Technology, and issued the white paper on science and technology mentioned above on May 5, 26, confirming the development strategy of driving the economy with science and technology. Gradually embark on recovery.This white paper is the first scientific and technological development strategy formulated by the UK in decades. It is a programmatic document to guide British science and technology into the 21st century, and it marks a fundamental change in the way the British government organizes science and technology.
