Arms dealer from Hogwarts

Chapter 76 Lockhart

Slughorn wasn't a bad character at heart, which was why Jemini was willing to strike up a conversation with him.

Factors like pomp, vanity, and snobbery didn’t bother Jamini. In his opinion, it’s not a bad thing, because as long as you have the ability, this kind of person is just the best to deal with.

So in Jemini's view, it is not particularly difficult to get Slughorn's contacts-if there are no accidents.

Jemini followed Slughorn in an elegant manner, smiling and nodding to everyone who came forward to chat, with a gentle look, and would tell a humorous joke from time to time, which amused the ladies People giggled.

Perhaps because of his personality, Jemini looks a bit naughty when he smiles, like a little fox, but coupled with his handsome face, it can only make people feel kind and intelligent.

"Oh...look who this is? Jemini Foxx..."

An exaggerated voice rang in his ears, and Jemini followed the voice and looked, and a man with a flirtatious appearance walked up to him.

Violet robes, well-groomed blond hair, and teeth that glisten when you smile...

The whole person revealed an aura that Jemini couldn't handle...

"Ha... Lockhart..." Slughorn looked cheerfully at the man coming towards him, and introduced to Jamie: "This is Gilderoy Lockhart, also a student I taught, I think you should have heard of his reputation long ago."

"Yeah... thunderous—" Jemini nodded gently: "Jamini Fox."

While it can feel overwhelming, Jemini doesn't show his emotions on his face.

In particular, the previous experience of going to the Room of Requirement convinced Jemini one thing - even if it is garbage, it will have its value.

"Although he looks a bit exaggerated, Lockhart still has some skills." Slughorn said happily: "He has scored O in all subjects in the NEWT exam."

This surprised Jemini a little. Sure enough, even garbage has its existence value.

If I remember correctly, even Hermione failed to get an O in all subjects in the OWL exam, and he was able to get an O in all subjects in the NEWT, which shows that he does have some talent—a pity that it is useless in the right place .

However, the saying that birds of a feather gather and people divide into groups is true. Lockhart and Slughorn are still very similar in many ways-for example, they were abducted back to Hogg by Dumbledore using Harry as a bait. Watts.

"Compared to Fox, who was able to defeat the three-headed dog in the first grade, my achievements are nothing to mention." Even though Lockhart said this, the smile on his face showed no hint of humility.

"You're right. I think people are always accurate. Jemini will have great achievements in the future." Slughorn laughed, as if he was the one being praised.

Jemini smiled politely back.

If I remember correctly, Slughorn's most promising student was Tom Riddle?

People are really accurate...

In fact, what Slughorn said is correct. He has a vicious eye for selecting students, and he is especially good at discovering the various talents of the students. The character of the students he likes is hard to say, but they have indeed achieved certain achievements. .

When vanity meets vanity, it becomes even more vain.

At this time, Slughorn and Lockhart were bragging about business, until Jamie couldn't bear it anymore, the two still had no intention of ending the conversation, and they even pulled Jemini to brag together. posture.

"Listen, Jemini, as a senior, I have to give you a little advice—"

Jemini felt his head was getting bigger.

Any garbage can also be used, it is all fake!To Nima!I want to be quiet!

Suddenly, a commotion suddenly interrupted Lockhart's eloquent talk, and Jamie immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Whoever made the noise, Jemini wanted to thank him.

"Someone is proposing?"

"No, it's confession."

"Ha... the young man now."

Jemini looked in the direction of the crowd. A blond young man was holding a rose in his hand, and he was talking loudly to a woman in a white dress.

Who was the blond boy, Jemini didn't know.

But the girl in the white dress, whom Jamini knew well, was Charlotte Gray.

With that said, Jamie wants to kill him now.

"Ah...that's Patrick." Slughorn on the side said cheerfully: "Patrick McLaggen, speaking of which, he is not married yet. Tall and handsome young man, gentle and charming little girl, how about it?" Fox, do you think they look like a good match?"

"No, sir," Jemini said softly.

Slughorn's smile froze instantly, and he suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing.

At this time, Charlotte's face was a little embarrassed. She didn't want Jemini to notice the situation here, and Adria and Shirley looked at Patrick with gloomy eyes.

"In my Patrick's name, I will make you happy forever, Charlotte." Patrick knelt on one knee and said gently, "Be my girlfriend, Charlotte."

"Not good." Charlotte said calmly, "Mr. McLaggen, I think I have made it clear to you before that I have no plans in this regard."

"I know what you're worried about!" Patrick said quickly, "Is it Shirley? And Jemini? I'll see them as my younger siblings."

"Brother?" Behind Charlotte, Adria's face suddenly turned cold: "Who do you think you're talking about? Despicable——"

"Adria!"

A sudden voice interrupted Adria's words, and Jemini walked slowly through the crowd of onlookers, looking at her gently: "Girls, don't swear."

"Yes..." Adria nodded quickly, as cute as a little quail.

"So can anyone tell me what happened?" Jemini glanced casually at Patrick's face: "Charlotte?"

"It's probably what you saw. I've already rejected him. I'm very sorry, Mr. Fox, for causing you trouble." Charlotte looked at Jemini with apologetic eyes.

Jamie came here for her business, and she also saw how helpless Jemini was being entangled by Lockhart, but instead of being of any help, something like this happened to her.

Charlotte is dying of guilt now.

And what worries her most is whether Jemini will alienate her because of this incident.

"You are Jemini, right? I heard about you, and Charlotte adopted you." Patrick immediately put on a mature look when he saw Jemini: "But as your older sister, Charlotte She has the right to pursue her own happiness..."

"I think you must be mistaken, Mr. McLaggen."

Jemini spoke softly, picked up the mead on the table and poured himself a glass, and took a sip from the glass.

"Although it was true that Miss Charlotte brought me out of the orphanage, I never said she was my sister."

"In addition, as early as a week ago, the account of the Gray family at Gringotts had become my name, and the property of the Gray family had already been transferred to my name. ...all have been dedicated to me, with Miss Charlotte Gray's subjective acknowledgment..."

Facing everyone's unbelievable gazes, Jemini gently shook the glass of mead: "So it should not be said that Charlotte is mine, but: Charlotte is mine. Because the Grey's Everything, including Charlotte."
