Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs
Chapter 76: Lockhart the Raider
By now, even Hermione, who was most reluctant to admit it, had discovered that Lockhart was a very unreliable professor.
All his excellence is concentrated in his smile and self-packaging.
Ron shook his head: "Dumbledore is not here, and Lu Ke is injured, so it's not too much for me to ask the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor for help, right? Percy is with the basilisk, and he will die at any time!"
Johanna let out a long sigh.
She began to regret reminding them that Percy was already under control in order to ensure the safety of the three Harrys.
"Okay, let's go ask him."
Although Johanna felt that Lockhart could not help at all, since Dumbledore was away now, he was the only one who could reluctantly calm Harry and the others down.
Together they walked into Lockhart's office.
At this time, Professor Lockhart was doing routine maintenance in his private space. He was wearing a hairband on his head, applying some medicine on his face, and practicing smiling in the mirror.
"professor!"
Ron couldn't wait to speak: "We need help!"
Lockhart looked at Ron, then smiled and nodded without hesitation: "Anything is okay, the professors at Hogwarts are always willing to help their students!"
Ron hesitated.
So Harry spoke before him: "We need your help to defeat a terrifying magical creature. Professor, this is part of the Defense Against the Dark Arts course. We thought...since you have defeated so many terrifying beings, …”
Lockhart nodded: "Vampires, old witches, werewolves, and snowmen. Yes, I can always defeat dangers and rescue people in need. It's the same this time."
As he spoke, he opened his arms and exaggeratedly walked to a cage covered with red cloth, as if performing a drama on the stage.
"Guess what's inside?"
Johanna remained helplessly silent.
This made Lockhart's expression flash with embarrassment.
Ron shook his head: "Tell us, Professor!"
Lockhart nodded: "Don't worry, don't worry, you will thank me after you see it."
After speaking, he bowed as if performing a magic trick, and then pulled away the red cloth covering the cage.
At that moment, everyone saw what was inside the cage.
Then everyone, including Johanna, let out an exclamation.
Because there is a rooster in the cage.
The living kind.
As soon as it saw the light, this energetic rooster stretched out its neck and began to crow. The sound was so loud that it sounded like the sound of nature to everyone's ears.
"Professor Lockhart!"
Ron almost cried: "But...how do you know..."
Lockhart smiled: "I know, because I investigated, I am a professional Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Weasley."
Johanna nodded: "That's good, then since you are so reliable..."
Lockhart looked proud, because he knew that the person who spoke complimentary words in front of him was the little princess of the Shafiq family.
Johanna's admission would undoubtedly change William's mind, or at least Lockhart always believed that.
"Why don't you help us get rid of the basilisk and rescue Percy Weasley? You are the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts, so it is only natural that you do these things and save the students. Right?"
Lockhart was awkwardly silent for a moment, and then he used an exaggerated smile to cover up his previous embarrassment.
"Don't you see this?"
He said, picking up the cage containing the rooster and handing it to Ron.
Ron looked at Lockhart expectantly, holding the cage as if it were some treasure.
"It's enough to deal with the basilisk. I don't need to take action myself. You are the best students in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Now is the time to practice it."
Ron and Harry looked at each other.
In the end they were convinced by Lockhart.
Harry was the first to make up his mind. He nodded: "Thank you, Professor Lockhart."
Then he pulled Ron and turned around: "Let's go, there's no time."
Ron hesitated for a moment, then followed.
Then came Hermione.
Johanna gave Lockhart a meaningful look, then turned and followed.
Finally there was Malfoy, who still didn't look like he was over his fear.
Several people were walking in the corridor, and Hermione looked at Johanna with a confused look on her face: "Why would Professor Lockhart know how to prepare a rooster? And the magical defense of Hogwarts is not always very strict, and nothing can pass through it. ”
Johanna shook her head.
Of course she knew why.
From the beginning, Lockhart was Lu Ke's second-hand preparation, and he believed in Lockhart's investigative abilities.
Although Johanna didn't believe it, it seemed that Lu Ke's ability to judge people won.
Since Lockhart has investigated the information about the basilisk, he must know that the most powerful weapon against the basilisk is the crow of the rooster.
As for passing through the magic protection of Hogwarts, it is even simpler. The Defense Against the Dark Arts professor has special privileges. He can even bring dark magic items or dangerous magical animals through the gate of Hogwarts.
So just like that, while Lu Ke was lying on the hospital bed, Lockhart had his cock ready.
It's just that he didn't take any action himself.
Ron shook his head: "Those are no longer important, we must enter the secret room now and rescue Percy!"
Harry nodded: "The longer time goes by, the more dangerous he will be. Let's go now..."
Johanna shook her head and stopped a few people: "Remember, it will take more than ten days, we still have time, the basilisk has not recovered yet."
Ron shook his head: "No, now I know, the Basilisk does not need to recover! Since it is a monster that can kill anyone it sees, what needs to be recovered? Will sleeping damage its vision?"
"Percy obviously can't be the heir to the Chamber of Secrets. He must be possessed by some terrifying dark wizard with a curse! That's when the dark wizard completely took over Percy's body!"
Johanna sighed helplessly.
Ron was right.
As for his sudden insight, the real reason lies with Johanna.
It was all because of her experiment on the Felixir that allowed Ron to untie the knot in his heart and grow completely, so he became so powerful.
Harry and Hermione nodded together: "In that case, let's go now!"
Johanna let out a long sigh: "Okay, but I think we should leave a note for Lu Ke."
Then she took out her wand and tapped it on a piece of parchment.
A description of this incident appeared on the paper, and then floated towards the ward of the school hospital.
