MTL - Harry Potter and the Badger Who Can’t Magic-Chapter 141 Gilderoy Lockhart
The admission letter came, which meant that their family had to go to Diagon Alley again to buy books and supplies for the new semester.
Auston took the letter from Sissy and opened it. As expected, the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts in the new semester became Gilderoy Lockhart, a super narcissistic liar.
The textbook on Defense Against the Dark Arts is almost all of his 'writings'.
"Who is this Lockhart?" Sissy flipped through her notice, frowning at the series of signatures on the Defense Against the Dark Arts textbook.
Auston casually forked a piece of bacon and put it in his mouth: "Didn't you subscribe to the Daily Prophet for a year? Why haven't you seen his name?"
When he said this, Sissi suddenly raised her head and widened her eyes: "Is that Lockhart?! I like him very much!"
Auston rolled his eyes, yes! There's also a Lockhart fanboy at home.
"By the way, he's still our Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher for the new semester. I hope he can be a little more reliable than Quirrell." Auston said with a pouting lip.
The little guy was so excited that she ate all the fried bacon sandwiches on her plate, and then picked up the milk on the table and drank it.
"Dad, let's go!" Sissy put down the empty milk glass and pulled Mr. Brown's hand.
"Wait a minute, Sissi. Don't be in a hurry." Mrs. Brown scolded her, "Let Dad finish breakfast first and ask for leave from the office before I can take you there."
Then Mrs. Brown turned to look at Auston: "Aus, you can't use the Floo network, so let Dad take you on the train."
Auston also quickly wiped out his own breakfast, flushing the food from his mouth with milk before he started talking.
"No, Mom, let Dad take Sissi to use the Floo Internet Cafe. I'll just ride a broomstick. We'll meet in front of Gringotts and go shopping. It's much faster than taking the train."
Auston said that, because he still had a place to go before then.
Since he brought the dragon home, he has never released him, for fear of being discovered by his family. The dragon also ate almost nothing during this time.
When chatting a few days ago, the giant dragon told him that he wanted to eat a poisonous spider from Greece. He searched all the magic shops in France and couldn't find such a thing.
With an idea, he suddenly thought of a place. If you can't find what you want anywhere, then there's nothing wrong with going to a place - Boginbok.
He was going to take the dragon to Knockturn Alley to try his luck.
When she heard that Auston could ride a broom to Diagon Alley, Xiao Qianqian was not happy at first.
"I'm going to ride a broom with Os too." Sissi protested.
Mrs. Brown pursed her lips and was about to rebuke her.
Auston snorted first.
"Tsk tsk, are you sure?" He raised his eyebrows and looked at Sissy: "I heard that Gilderoy Lockhart has a book signing today at Lishen Bookstore, he has a lot of fans, maybe you're late. If so, the signing line will have to go to Ollivander's wand shop."
After listening to his words, Qian Qian frowned, with obvious struggle on her face.
Auston quickly added another fire: "And my broom is a Nimbus 2000. It's been used for more than a year, but it's not as good as the latest Nimbus 2001. The speed is very slow. It's not like a Floo network. With a little shout, we reached Diagon Alley."
"And if you can't be the first to go to Lihen Bookstore using Floo, maybe you can chat with Lockhart a little more without having to queue."
When he said this, the balance in Qian Qian's heart was immediately tilted.
"You're right, Dad, hurry up, we won't be late." Sissi said and began to shake Mr. Brown's arm again.
Leaving Auston to laugh secretly, children are so easy to deceive.
After dinner, Mr. Brown asked for leave and took Auston's notice in his hand:
"Auston, I'll go to Lishen Bookstore with Sissy first, and buy back the books you're going to use. When you get to Diagon Alley, wait for us in front of Gringotts."
Before leaving, Mr. Brown instructed Auston carefully.
"Well." Auston nodded obediently, watching Mr. Brown and Sissy disappear from the burning fireplace.
"You go too, Os." Mrs. Brown said, "don't make your father wait too long."
Auston nodded and went out with his dragonskin bag.
Walking into his garden, Auston took out a small glass bottle containing a giant dragon from the dragon skin bag.
"Mr. Long, I'm going to Knockturn Alley now, there's a shop there that will probably buy the Greek poisonous spider you want.
The giant dragon responded in the bottle: "If you don't have it, you don't have to force it. I'm different from ordinary magical animals. My magic power has already ensured that I can maintain my life without eating."
But he turned and said, "If there is a dead spider, it can be eaten as a snack, just like you humans often eat beef jerky."
Auston smiled and put the glass bottle back into the dragonskin bag~www.novelbuddy.com~, then took out a Nimbus 2001 and stepped on it.
——————
The latest broomstick was really fast, and it was over Diagon Alley in no time.
After finding a place to stay, he slowly went down, dodged the witch who sold nails, and found the signboard of Boginbok from the dark shops in Knockturn Alley. Opened the door and walked in.
It looked like someone was shopping inside.
Borgin was frowning and haggling with a man with long platinum-blond hair.
When he saw Auston enter the door, his face was full of wrinkles when he stuck his head out and smiled.
"Haha, welcome, Mr. Black! We meet again, what would you like to have today?"
Seeing Auston, Borgin immediately dropped the white-blond-haired man to meet him.
Auston said with a smile, "Nothing special, I just want to buy some Greek poisonous spiders. I don't know if you have any for sale here."
The white-blond-haired man also turned his head to look at Auston.
Seeing his face, Auston was stunned for a moment, and his heart began to beat. That face was exactly the same as Draco Malfoy.
'Is it Malfoy's father Lucius Malfoy? ' Auston speculated in his heart. 'At this time, he must have sold the stolen goods when he came to Boginbok! ’
I don't know if he took the notebook with Voldemort's soul with him.
Auston looked at the man carefully, saw that he was holding a list in his hand, and looked at him with an unswerving expression.
Auston glanced again at the pocket of his robe.
His pupils shrank! Just off the edge of his pocket leaked the corner of a notebook.
Auston's heart was trembling with excitement. This was the best chance to destroy Voldemort's soul fragments!
