The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

Link struggled to squeeze into the store, and the first thing that caught his eye was a giant magic poster. On it was a man who was dressed exquisitely and showed big white teeth when he smiled.

Under his avatar is a line of words like this:

Gilderoy Lockhart, an internationally renowned figure and author, is a recipient of the Order of Merlin, Third Class, an honorary member of the Alliance Against Dark Arts, and has won the "Wizard Weekly" Most Charming Smile Award five times. He is the author of "Gilderoy Lockhart" Hart Series", "Breaking with the Ghost", "Walking with the Ghouls", "Holidays with the Dominatrix", "Walking with the Trolls", "Traveling with the Vampires", "Wandering with the Werewolves", Best-selling books such as "A Year with the Tibetan Snowman" and "Magical Me".

As soon as Link read the words on the poster, he heard a deafening cheer from the crowd in front.

Link took a closer look and saw that the person on the poster actually walked into the store with a smile from the back door.

Different from the poster, he was wearing a robe in the color of forget-me-not flowers at the moment. His chest, neck and wrists were dotted with various accessories, giving him a gaudy look.

But the special smile on his face is exactly the same as on the poster.

Such a smile made Link feel uncomfortable, because it was almost the same as the fake smiles that the hotel waiters in previous lives had developed through etiquette training.

But the surrounding onlookers were very impressed by this, which could be seen from their excited reactions and the continuous flashing of the magic camera's flash.

"Ah!"

Looking at Lockhart who walked through the crowd and finally sat among a pile of posters, a sneer appeared on Link's face.

For Lockhart, Link, a time traveler, is actually no stranger.

He is indeed a best-selling author and is also Link's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor this year.

But compared to the orthodox Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Lockhart is more like a fraudster and businessman.

Because he has been promoting to his fans that the stories described in his novels are his personal experiences. In this way, his strong strength and good appearance have attracted a large number of fans to him, especially those female fans. , for example, most of the people gathered in Flourish and Blotts Bookstore are women, ranging in age from 8 to 80 years old.

However, Link knew very well that those so-called personal experiences were simply lies.

That's why he sneered at the current Lockhart.

But Link cannot deny that Lockhart is indeed a wizard in business.

Just like what he is doing now.

What others may think about after being invited to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts is how to prepare lesson plans.

But Lockhart was different.

His keen business sense immediately smelled the business opportunities.

So he directly replaced the Defense Against the Dark Arts textbook for all Hogwarts students in the next semester with his own book, and then held a new book signing event at this juncture.

Link is a straight up guy!

This wave, this wave will directly lead to fame and fortune!

Smiling and shaking his head, Link retreated directly to the corner and began to wait for Harry and the others to arrive.

He didn't come here today to cause trouble for Lockhart. Solving that diary was the key today.

After waiting for half an hour, Link finally found Harry, Weasley and others who were struggling to squeeze into the store.

This is not because Link is always paying attention to the gate. This is unrealistic. The crowded crowd has long blocked the view over there.

What really made Link recognize Harry and the others was the neat and bright red hair of the Weasley family.

Such a rare characteristic is more effective than the Weasley family crest in a group as small as wizards.

The corners of Link's mouth raised slightly, but he did not immediately come forward to say hello. Instead, he sat aside and waited quietly for the arrival of Malfoy and his son.

And the next development of things happened as Link expected.

As a well-known figure in the wizarding world, Harry was quickly recognized by others, and then Lockhart was delighted to join in the popularity, and eagerly announced that he would be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts this year. The news of the new position aroused screams from fans in the audience.

Among them, Link also noticed that Hermione and Mrs. Weasley were shouting very loudly.

It was clear that they were as much fans of Lockhart as the other women.

But that didn't matter. What really excited Link was that Lucius Malfoy and Draco Malfoy finally appeared from the door.

This time Link witnessed the father and son walking into Flourish and Blotts Bookstore with his own eyes.

Because the people who had gathered at the door moved away in disgust or fear after discovering the father and son.

Draco was obviously very proud of this treatment. The father and son looked at each other with a smile and then walked straight towards Harry, who was surrounded by Lockhart and a group of fans.

Seeing this, Link no longer hesitated, stood up and squeezed into the crowd.

"You must like this very much, Potter?" Draco said to Harry with a mocking look on his face in the crowd, "The famous Harry Potter can't even enter a bookstore without making front-page news."

His words obviously aroused Harry's anger, but before Harry could reply, a little red-haired girl next to him spoke first.

"You bullshit!"

"Potter, you found a girlfriend!"

Malfoy drawled.

Malfoy's words were so lethal that the red-haired girl's face instantly turned the same color as her hair, and she lowered her head and stopped talking.

The exchange between them finally attracted the attention of others. The Weasleys, Hermione and others all gathered in this direction, and the scene began to become tense.

At this time, a voice that was very familiar to both parties suddenly rang.

"Harry, Draco, do you really want to love and kill each other like this outside of school?"

"Link?"n

Harry and Draco both shouted in surprise, and the latter said directly after reacting:

"Link, this matter has nothing to do with you. You'd better not get involved."

Although Draco's words were strong, the expression on his face looked very nervous, and he even took a few steps back while speaking.

Then, a broad palm patted Draco's shoulder.

"Isn't this little Link?"

Draco took a closer look, and the slightly nervous expression on his face immediately returned to normal, because the person standing behind him at this moment was Lucius Malfoy.

Lucius didn't pay attention to the change of expression on Draco's face and continued to say to Link:

"Are you here to buy books too? But I need to remind you that it is best not to associate with some red-haired guys, otherwise you will be tainted by their poverty. To be honest, I am really surprised how they dare to step into From Flourish and Blott Bookstore, after all, the consumption here is very high, and the junk shop is where they should go. Or maybe, Weasley, your boss gave you a bonus because of your pity? "

As he spoke, Lucius glanced at the Weasley family with a mocking look that was almost exactly the same as his son's. It was self-evident who he was talking about just now.

This was nothing. After saying that, Lucius directly took out a shabby textbook from the crucible of the little red-haired girl and placed it in front of everyone:

"It seems that there are no more, which is really a pity. If I were you, I wouldn't have so many. After all, being your child is so pitiful that you can't even get into a good textbook."

"What did you say!"

A loud shout came from Mr. Weasley's mouth. At this moment, his hair stood up in anger, and he raised his fist and punched Lucius directly in the face.

Lucius, who reacted, was naturally not to be outdone, and the two soon started fighting each other.

Seeing this, Link finally took action.
