Chapter 142 Valentine's Day Event
Lockhart?
Yagus saw his slightly anxious eyes and immediately understood what he meant.
Here comes the Gold Galleons for yourself!
Wand and cloak!
Both things had been repaired long ago, but the Saint spent more time studying the two finished products.
"Professor Lockhart has something to do, please go and help me, I'll leave first!" Hermione was very sensible and told Yagus a few words before reluctantly leaving.
Follow Lockhart all the way to his office.
Before Lockhart could speak, Argus took out a small suitcase from his pocket.
"Get bigger quickly!"
After the suitcase was restored to its original shape, Argus took out the wand and cloak and placed them in front of Lockhart.
"Professor Lockhart, your wand and cloak."
"Because the power of the spell has been increased, it took a little more time."
"Increased power!"
Upon hearing this, Lockhart's dissatisfaction instantly disappeared!
Seeing the exquisite patterns on the wand and cloak made me smile!
What he likes most is this kind of thing that is very gorgeous at first sight.
Whether it is easy to use or not is another matter, the main thing is that it is popular!
Lockhart couldn't wait to pick up his wand and try it.
Aim at the flowerpot on the table!
boom!
A red light flashed, and the flowerpot on the table shattered!
"It's really powerful!"
Lockhart looked surprised and stroked his wand affectionately.
The way you look at it is like looking at your beloved!
I was afraid that I might accidentally get some scratches on it.
Yagus was speechless in his heart.
If I lie to you, you will believe it!
What can be measured about something that can break if dropped?
Only parallel importers like you can't tell!
However, he still maintained an elegant smile on the surface.
He said, "Professor Lockhart, it doesn't belong to you now."
"Not mine?"
Lockhart was stunned for a moment and then reacted.
With a painful look on his face, he took out a bag from his suitcase and put it on the table.
"One hundred thousand gold galleons, count them."
Argos was quietly running Legilimency.
I wanted to check if there were any missing gold galleons in the bag, but I discovered a more interesting piece of information.
The corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
"No need, Professor Lockhart, I still trust your credibility."
"If nothing happens, I'll go back to the dormitory first."
"That's right, Professor!" Argus suddenly turned around, but Lockhart was frightened.
"Next time you want to make a sneak attack, you'd better not make your intentions so obvious."
As soon as Yagus finished speaking, he waved his hand and cast a silent disarming spell!
boom!
Lockhart's hand just touched his wand, and before he could make any reaction, he was knocked to the ground!
The severe pain radiating from every part of his body made him twitch all over.
"besides……"
"Do you think the Saints would let you go if something happened to me in your office?"
Yagus still had that elegant smile on his face.
The cold light in his eyes made Lockhart's hair stand on end!
He didn't understand where he was exposed and Yagus noticed it!
Even if he noticed it, he was caught!
But now, he didn't have time to think about this.
It’s important to save your life first!
Lockhart racked his brains and stammered an explanation: "I...I just wanted to see the difference between the two wands."
"Yes, I want to see the difference in the wand!"
"Really?" Yagus looked at him with a half-smile.
He took his wand out of his sleeve and pointed it at Lockhart.
"If I remember correctly, Professor Lockhart, you should be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor."
"Please tell your students what are the differences between the three unforgivable curses!"
As he spoke, Yagus's wand glowed with a pale green light.
Lockhart was completely panicked, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his face was pale.
"No! You can't do this!"
"I am a professor at Hogwarts, your teacher!"
"I am a recipient of the Order of Merlin, Level 3, and an honorary member of the Anti-Dark Arts Alliance. If you use the Unforgivable Curse on me, the Ministry of Magic will not let you go!"
Yagus sneered and ignored it.
Lockhart was so frightened that he backed away and covered his eyes with his hands, not daring to look at Argus's wand.
He yelled at the top of his lungs: "I still have fifty thousand gold galleons in my suitcase!"
"Buy my life!"
Argus put away his wand and chuckled: "Congratulations, Professor Lockhart."
"You found your only chance of survival."
Lockhart's clothes were soaked with cold sweat after narrowly escaping from death.
He collapsed on the ground, breathing heavily.
The moment he noticed Yagus' cold gaze, he crawled to his suitcase and recited the magic spell to open the suitcase.
Take a bag out of the box and place it on the table.
Then he squatted aside with a look of fear, not even picking up the wand, not giving Yagus any chance to attack.
Yagus didn't say anything more and picked up the two bags on the table.
He gave Lockhart a warning look.
Turn around and leave the office.
He had no intention of killing Lockhart from beginning to end.
Killing someone in Hogwarts is no different than seeking death.
Argus knew Dumbledore's bottom line very well, as long as he did not expose it or leave no evidence of using dark magic.
Dumbledore would not touch himself easily.
On the contrary, if Dumbledore finds any evidence, he will be ruthlessly killed!
Take your life to trade with a liar?
Argus is not that stupid!
"It's a pity that Lockhart still has a large number of gold Galleons in Gringotts, otherwise, I will knock them all out this time!"
Until this moment, he stopped the Legilimency.
His brain was slightly swollen and painful.
Fortunately, there was no class in the afternoon, and Argus went back to the dormitory to sleep for an afternoon, and then he recovered his spirit.
Classes were held normally the next day.
…
February 14th, Valentine's Day.
The Hogwarts Hall was decorated with countless pink flowers.
The original starry sky ceiling was also replaced by a peach-shaped heart!
In the center of each college's long table was a stone statue of Cupid, holding his heart bow and arrow and aiming at the men and women on the table.
It attracted exclamations.
Argus knew who was responsible without even thinking about it.
Gilderoy Lockhart!
"I'm still too kind. I should have taken action a few days ago, knowing that he would play such a trick on Valentine's Day."
"At least let him lie down for the rest of Valentine's Day!"
In the original book, today is Harry's social death day, but it seems that it's time for someone else to do it now...
He just glanced around and noticed that many little witches were quietly looking at him.
Many of them were holding some stationery and gifts in their hands.
The purpose couldn't be more obvious.
"Hey, little wizards, today is a big day!"
Lockhart appeared in a pink robe and the cloak given to him by Argus.
He was followed by twelve dwarfs with golden wings and gloomy faces.
Some dwarfs held harps, and some held bows and arrows.
Obviously, this is the "God of Love Cupid" prepared by Lockhart for the little wizards of Hogwarts!
"Which little wizard wants to send a love letter to his or her loved one? Just give it to our little Cupid!"
"Of course, you can also give it to them secretly!"
Lockhart announced loudly: "Next, it's the much-anticipated letter delivery session!"
