Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 531 The Missing Savior

Lee Jordan didn’t know much about Professor Gilderoy Lockhart. He learned that Gilderoy Lockhart was going to serve in Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts from the book signing at Lihen Bookstore. professor.

   "Do you think Lockhart is really as great as it is written in the book?"

  Lee Jordan unpacked the box and shared Bibi's multi-flavored beans with Albert, "To be honest, I doubt whether Lockhart is a qualified Defense Against the Dark Arts professor."

   "I haven't seen Gilderoy Lockhart himself, and I don't know him well, so I can't make random comments."

   "You should go shopping in Diagon Alley with us." Lee Jordan regretted this, "Mr. Weasley and Malfoy had a fight in the bookstore that day."

   "Fight, why?"

"I don't know." Lee Jordan shook his head and said, "The relationship between them has always been very bad, probably because of some reasons. I heard from my dad that Mr. Weasley had raided several ancient wizarding families. .”

   "Oh." Albert responded casually.

   Having said that, this matter has something to do with him. Mr. Weasley's rights were delegated to him by the group of Bard.

"Actually, whether Lockhart is a qualified Defense Against the Dark Arts professor or not, we will know after we take his class." Albert smiled and changed the subject, "However, his book is indeed very good , if you like reading books, it’s not a bad idea to buy those few books.”

  While the two of them were talking, time passed by little by little, and the people outside the carriage changed one after another. I really don’t know where there are so many curious babies.

Lee Jordan was more than happy to be Albert's shield. This guy even took Bibi multi-flavored beans and invited those outside to eat, laughing and bragging that he could sell Albert's photos if they wanted, and he didn't forget to give Advertisement for the Wizarding Card Club.

   Sure enough, it successfully aroused the curiosity and attention of many girls.

   However, what puzzled the two of them was that Fred and George never showed up.

   "They're almost late." Albert glanced at his pocket watch, "It's already 10:50."

   "What should I do if I fail to board the train on time?" Lee Jordan kept staring at the platform outside the train window, looking for the Weasley family.

   "It shouldn't be a big problem if you don't board. You probably have to go directly to Hogsmeade, but it will be more troublesome to go to Hogwarts." Albert thought for a while and said. "You don't think you don't have to go to school if you don't board the train!"

  Looking at the expression on Lee Jordan's face, he might really think so.

   "Don't be stupid, taking the train to go to school is just a regulation of the Ministry of Magic. If you really encounter special circumstances, there are naturally other ways to deal with it." Albert showed an expression that he really lost to you.

   "Here they come."

  Lee Jordan pointed to the hurried figures outside the window, and said to Albert: "It's really embarrassing. I don't understand why they like to step on the clock to get to the station."

   "Don't worry, there's still time, this is for you, I don't like this taste very much."

   Albert secretly stuffed a red Bibi multi-flavored bean into Lee Jordan's hand.

"Thanks."

  Lee Jordan grunted, and after he ate it, a choking chili smell spread in his mouth, almost making him spit it out.

   "It tastes like red pepper, you really are uneasy and kind." Lee Jordan threw the Bibi multi-flavored bean out of the car window.

   "Don't be angry, I invite you to drink this."

   Albert took out a bottle of Coca-Cola from his suitcase and handed it to Lee Jordan, and asked with a smile, "Have you ever drank a Muggle drink?"

   "Coca-Cola?" Lee Jordan looked at Albert suspiciously, opened the bottle and took a sip, blinked his mouth, and commented, "It tastes a bit weird. I really don't know why Muggles like this kind of thing."

   "You're just not used to drinking it. If you drink a few more sips, you will like it." Albert explained with a smile: "Coke can be popular all over the world and make more than one billion people like it. Coke naturally has its charm."

   While speaking, someone knocked on the door of the carriage again, and Fred and George walked in, followed by their sister Ginny.

   "We have to take Ginny to find Ron first." Fred said to Albert and Lee Jordan as he stuffed their luggage into the carriage.

   At this time, the train suddenly shook and began to move forward.

   "You almost missed the train." Lee Jordan took another sip of Coke. It is undeniable that he is used to drinking this stuff, and he actually feels pretty good.

   "See you later." After finishing speaking, George closed the door of the cubicle.

  After Fred and George returned, their brows were slightly frowned.

"What's wrong?"

   "We didn't find Harry and Ron," Fred said.

   "What about your sister?" Albert asked.

   "With Hermione Granger," said George.

   "This year's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is Lockhart." Lee Jordan said suddenly, "Many people seem to admire him. I don't know what kind of person he is."

  Fred and George just sat down to chat about Lockhart when they saw Hermione and Percy appearing outside the carriage.

   "What's the matter?" They all noticed that Percy's expression was particularly gloomy.

   "Harry and Ron are gone!" Hermione said, "I thought they were in another compartment, but I looked around and couldn't find them."

   "Probably didn't have time to get on the train!" Albert said indifferently.

"Wow!"

  Fred and George looked at Albert together.

   "What's wrong." Percy was taken aback by their fuss.

   "I think 80% of what Albert said was right." Fred said.

   "Not on the train?" Percy frowned.

"Don't worry." Albert casually comforted: "If Mr. Weasley turns around and finds that the two of them missed the train, he will send them directly to Hogsmeade, and then go to the school from there, which is far more convenient than our train. The train is much faster."

   "How could they miss the train?" Hermione couldn't understand.

   "Maybe, something happened." Albert said without thinking.

   "What accident?" Hermione asked vigilantly, remembering Albert's warning.

   "How would I know."

  After the two left, Albert suddenly thought of something, looked at the three and asked, "What would you do if you found out that you couldn't catch the train?"

"How to do it?"

  The three of them froze for a moment, and thought about it for a while.

   "No need to do anything." Lee Jordan spoke first. "After all, parents send their kids to school just in case something like this happens."

   "What if you find that your family is not around?" Albert continued to ask, "Or, is your family just ordinary people?"

   "Get help!" Fred said without thinking.

   "Yes, find the guard on the platform." George added.

  At this time, the three of them looked at Albert together.

   "Look for the station guard. If there is no way, let the owl send a letter to Professor McGonagall. The school will definitely send someone to pick him up." Albert noticed the eyes of the three, "What do you think they will do."

   "Ron is an idiot!"

  Fred and George said in unison: "However, it is estimated that it will be the situation that Lee Jordan said."

   Albert thought about it carefully, and felt that the thoughts in the heads of the two of them were very strange. They were suspected of deliberately seeking excitement and attracting attention, so they drove to school. It seemed that there was no problem.

   After all, normal people, who would do that?

   It turned out that it wasn't that other people had a problem with their thinking. They couldn't understand why Harry Potter and Ron Weasley drove to school, but that they both had a problem with their thinking, or they were eager to die?

  If Albert was just an ordinary wizard, he probably would have the same idea as everyone else!

   "What if Harry and Ron miss the train on purpose?" Lee Jordan puts forward a hypothesis.

   "You mean..." Fred and George immediately came back to their senses, looked at each other, and said in unison, "Do they want to go to school in a Ford?"
