Chapter 315 Shock! Lockhart Is Gay? Why Did You Give Snape To That?
"What happened tonight feels quite outrageous to me." Hermione said.
"Moreover, we have violated so many school rules, but we only have so few points deducted?"
That's Dumbledore...
Although he does seem a bit eccentric at times.
18......
Isn’t it a bit strange to deduct points from students after discussion?
Blake looked at Hermione strangely.
"Isn't it good to just deduct some points and not be punished..."
"Could it be that you really want us all to be expelled?"
Hermione blushed immediately when she heard this.
Because she did think so when she was in the Forbidden Forest just now.
If both of them are expelled, then...
"I...I didn't say that."
Of course Hermione wouldn't admit her outrageous thoughts.
But of course the change in Hermione's expression couldn't escape Blake's eyes.
...... Could it be that you are planning to get both of us fired, and then you can..."
"Hiss... I didn't expect you to be like this Hermione"
Hearing Blake express his thoughts.
Hermione was embarrassed and annoyed, "You're talking nonsense! I'm not! I'm not!"
But her three consecutive denials seemed extremely weak.
Seeing Blake's half-smiling expression.
Hermione finally couldn't stand it anymore.
"I...I'm going back."
She turned and walked towards the door of the Room of Requirement.
"Hey, are you leaving now?"
"if not?"
"What if I bump into Professor McGonagall or Mr. Filch on the way, and then be escorted to the principal's office?"
Hermione's footsteps immediately stopped.
I just parted with Dumbledore, if I were sent to him again.
Hermione didn't know how to explain herself.
After all, they just said they wanted to go back to their respective dormitories.
Hermione turned to look at Blake, bit her lip and asked, "Can you give me a ride?"
"Can you not leave?"
"No! I have to go back to bed! Staying up late is a girl's biggest enemy!"
Blake sat on the edge of her luxurious bed with her legs crossed.
Then he patted the empty seat next to him very seductively.
"Come, there's still room here."
"Get out of here!"
"So you dislike me so much. It's not like..."
Hermione suddenly became alert.
"Who doesn't look like him? Could it be that someone else has slept here?"
"Is it Cassandra?" Hermione asked through gritted teeth.
"Cassandra? I shouted, but she didn't agree.
"Are you sorry?" Hermione was furious.
"How can you let a girl rest here with you...?"
Blake looked at Hermione in shock.
"Together? I didn't say together..."
"What I mean is, you rest here, and then I go back to the dormitory..."
"Hiss...don't you think that I want to be with you..."
"Ouch! Why do you think the same as Cassandra!"
"You damn ghost, you're so annoying"
"Ding! The emotion of shame and anger is detected!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for getting a silver treasure chest!"
As the system announces.
Hermione's face flushed quickly and visibly.
"You're so annoying!"
Then, she turned around, opened the door to the Room of Requirement, lowered her head and ran away.
If she stayed any longer, she felt like she was going to explode with Blake's anger...
Blake snapped his fingers.
Then, just after Hermione ran out of the Room of Requirement, she ran into a dimensional door.
Wait until she reacts.
We've arrived at the door of the Gryffindor common room!
The portrait of the Fat Lady was looking at the sudden appearance of Hermione with a shocked expression.
"Lucky stars shine!"
Hermione yelled the command in embarrassment.
"I heard it, I heard it... Young people nowadays are really... each one has a bad temper."
The Fat Lady grumbled and moved the doorway, revealing the passage to the Gryffindor common room...
early morning.
Hogwarts Great Hall.
It was supposed to be a noisy auditorium.
At this time, it became strangely quiet.
Just because the owl just delivered the latest edition of the Daily Prophet.
...
The Daily Prophet's front-page headline is no longer about Blake's life-extending potion.
Instead it became Lockhart!
Then the title is written in large and bold font.
[Shocking! Gilderoy Lockhart, a popular and high-profile writer, is actually gay! Here are the top ten supporting evidences! 】
“High-profile young writer Lockhart, unique!”
"I especially like the greasy middle-aged man with a sinister temperament!"
"Mr. Lockhart is known to be powerful."
"None of the middle-aged wizards he falls in love with can escape his clutches."
"According to the victim, Ackerman Allen, who wished to remain anonymous.
"The author recommends that all middle-aged wizards should be cautious about Lockhart, wear less black robes, and keep smiling at all times..."
Lockhart hummed.
He walked towards the auditorium refreshed.
He was going to have a nice breakfast.
The staff meals at Hogwarts are pretty good.
Moreover, he is in a good mood these days.
Although it was a bit bad that my friend, the editor-in-chief of the Daily Prophet, broke up with me.
However, his number one fan Gladys Gedgern gave him a portrait of Lockhart himself the day before yesterday!
Lockhart in the portrait is very coquettish, which perfectly suits Lockhart’s aesthetic!
The most important thing is that the frame of the portrait is made of gold!
For this reason, the ecstatic Lockhart also used his large quill made of peacock feathers.
In the blank space of the portrait, dragons and phoenixes signed his name.
However, Lockhart's good mood did not last long.
Because he was on his way from his office to the auditorium.
I always feel like everyone I meet looks at me strangely.
Even the girls who used to blush when seeing him.
Now he walked away quickly with strange eyes.
When the boys saw him, they even walked against the wall...
And he was still pointing quietly behind him.
"what happened?"
Lockhart had a bad feeling in his heart.
He soon saw an acquaintance.
Snape had the same gloomy face as always, looking like everyone owed him a few hundred galleons.
He was striding towards the auditorium.
"Ah! Severus! Good morning!"
Snape turned around and saw a trace of disgust in his eyes when he saw Lockhart.
And quickly stood up against the wall.
This behavior puzzled Lockhart.
"Is something wrong?"
Snape asked warily.
He couldn't help but be vigilant.
He has read today's Daily Prophet.
It is said above that Lockhart especially likes middle-aged wizards with sinister temperaments...
For Lockhart's favorite type...
Snape felt that the following description looked very ominous.
It's almost like...
It's like it was written in Snape's image!
If it hadn't been for the Daily Prophet's photo of a victim being coded.
Snape thought the Daily Prophet was talking about him!
But, having said that.
Although the victim's face was marked, he couldn't see clearly.
But hairstyle, hair color, clothing...
They are all very similar to Snape!
In summary, how could Snape be wary of Lockhart coming to him?
And, because of Blake's intervention.
Snape has never fought against Lockhart, so Snape doesn't know how strong Lockhart really is.
After all, it’s not uncommon for people who are embarrassed in class to be awesome in private, such as Quirrell last year...
So, even Snape, after seeing Lockhart, couldn't help but stand against the wall and be on guard...
"Um...it's nothing..." Lockhart said.
"It's just... Why do I feel like the way they look at me is not right?"
Snape narrowed his eyes. "Didn't you read today's Daily Prophet?"
"Oh...I haven't received it yet, maybe the owl made a mistake...
"Wait! Is there something about me in the Daily Prophet?"
Lockhart suddenly became energetic!
Aha! Another admirer must have written this article for me!
"Besides, it's the headline..." Snape said slowly.
"Front page headlines?!" Lockhart was delighted.
"Then I have to go to the auditorium quickly! Maybe the owl that delivered the newspaper to me is standing stupidly at my place waiting for me!"
I heard that there was news about him on the front page.
Lockhart's suspicion suddenly dissipated.
Even Snape, who was standing aside and watching him, ignored him.
He walked quickly towards the auditorium.
Unknowingly, he still had a bright smile on his face...
It's just when other little wizards see him.
Seeing his smile, I thought of what was in the newspaper.
I shuddered immediately....
"Could the victim reported in the newspaper be Professor Snape?"
"Impossible? Didn't you say your name is Ackerman Allen?"
"You're stupid, this is obviously a pseudonym! How could you say you don't want to reveal your name and then say your real name!"
…Please give me flowers…
"Yes! And, look at that photo..."
"Although the face is covered, the clothes, the dress, the hair, the hair color..."
"Hiss! The victim turned out to be Professor Snape!"
"Hiss! No wonder Loha Temple smiled so brightly after talking to Professor Snape just now!"
"Professor Snape...how pitiful..."
"Yes...according to the description in the book, Lockhart is so strong that Professor Snape can't resist..."
So... Professor Snape was actually..."
"Alas...it's so pitiful..."
A few little wizards were whispering gossip as they walked.
Then they couldn't help but feel a little cold behind them
Wait until they feel something is wrong and turn around.
I happened to see Snape with a sinister look on his face...
"Fifty points from Gryffindor!"
When Lockhart walked into the auditorium.
The noisy auditorium suddenly became silent!
Everyone was looking at Lockhart strangely.
Blake was the only one working hard, and no one was paying attention to Lockhart.
Lockhart couldn't help but be surprised when he saw everyone's reactions.
Could it be that one of my admirers writes very good articles?
So everyone admires me?
Otherwise, why would everyone only look at me when I come in?
"Oh...Good morning, Minerva!"
Lockhart saw Professor McGonagall stand up,
Say hello quickly.
Professor McGonagall gave him a cold look.
"Professor Lockhart, we do not interfere in your private life, but..."
"It is recommended that you do not bring those special hobbies of yours into Hogwarts!"
After Professor McGonagall finished speaking, he strode out of the auditorium.
This confused Lockhart behind him...
At this time, Lockhart found that the owl that delivered the newspaper to him was standing on his seat.
Lockhart, preoccupied with his own headlines.
Professor McGonagall's strange behavior was quickly forgotten.
He walked over quickly and took the newspaper from the owl's beak.
Then I opened the newspaper with great anticipation and looked at the homepage...
Quiet………
Lockhart's expression was all smiles from the start.
His smile froze, and his face turned livid.
It only took three seconds...
Immediately afterwards, his hand holding the newspaper was shaking...
"Rita Skeeta! You're talking nonsense!"
Lockhart roared, then grabbed the newspaper and rushed out of the auditorium!
At this time, Blake, who had just finished his meal, took out a paper towel from his system warehouse and wiped his mouth.
Then he glanced at Lockhart's furious back with a mocking look.
Rita's skills are really good...
This first time I took action, I hit the nail on the head!
Is this report true?
This report is of course false.
And it’s completely made up.
...
Just right!
Rita did not immediately reveal the dirty information in her hand.
But spread rumors first!
And, this rumor is going to shake up Lockhart’s fanbase!
Who are Lockhart's fans?
Mostly women!
Especially middle-aged and elderly women!
Many of these people are Lockhart's "fans"
And now, Rita directly accuses Lockhart of being gay!
You think, those fans who still have a little bit of fantasy about Lockhart.
How could there be no waves in my heart?
You can imagine how complicated those star-chasing girls will feel when they suddenly find out that their giegie is gay...
Even if only some of those female fans believe this rumor...
Then Lockhart's fan base will be greatly reduced!
Even those who don't believe it will have a knot buried in their hearts.
Not a bad start.
Although the effect should not be too obvious, many people will not believe it.
However, this is also the tenth stab in Lockhart's heart.
However, Blake is in no rush.
Rita wasn't in a hurry either.
Wait until the discussion about this matter reaches a certain level.
She will throw out the second thing in due course!
How to discredit someone.
Rita Skeeta is a master at it.
What’s more, now the Daily Prophet has given her article the green light!
She doesn’t need to worry about her random articles failing to be drafted!
As for her opponent Lockhart...not necessarily...
Rita: I have never been so wealthy in my life!.
