Chapter 125 London Bridge is down!

Chapter 125 London Bridge is down!

As a Gryffindor, Lupine is definitely a good person who is not afraid of death, but such a brave person, in many cases, his personality is a little cowardly.

As the predator of the past, he has never been there for so many years, and he even dared not see the son of his best friend.

In comparison, Sirius went to No. 4 Privet Drive immediately after he escaped from prison.

In the original time and space, Lupine even evaded his responsibilities as a husband and father, showing the contradictions in his personality to the extreme.

But the formation of this complex personality is multi-faceted. In addition to the tragic childhood, there is also the loss of a close friend overnight, and from then on, wandering alone, wandering at the bottom of society, and experiencing the hardships of the world...

Some people are healed by childhood all their lives, and some people are healed by childhood all their lives.

The latter is probably the truest portrayal of Lupine.

Rove didn't have a good solution. After all, he was only a veterinarian, not a psychiatrist. At most, he could only give some help in speech and work.

throughout july,

Rove is learning magic from Lupine.

At first, it was just learning how to deal with fire dragons, but as it gradually deepened, it became a teaching of defense against the dark arts.

Although Professor Snape took advantage of Quirrell's absence to make up for everyone for half a year, the second-year professor will be Lockhart.

It's just another idiot, it's impossible to learn anything from this kind of teacher.

Rove usually relies on the magic of magical animals in battle, but it is not a bad thing to have wizards help the system to study Defense Against the Dark Arts.

After all, he has to take the O.W.Ls exam in the future.

August is here, and before the dragon trainer's assessment comes, Rove has to stop studying and follow Newt to England...to attend Nico's funeral.

Sitting on the chair, Rove opened the invitation letter with the N.F mark again. The letter did not actually mention attending the funeral, but only a simple sentence:

London Bridge is down!

Rove heard from Newt that Nicole Flamel had held many funerals, but each time the code name was different, which had something to do with where he lived.

The last time was "Project Barbarossa", this funeral sounds dangerous.

After a while, Newt seemed to have just remembered something, and suddenly began to search for things.

Rove couldn't help asking, "What are you looking for?"

"That amber... Hey, I remember putting it here! Rove, have you seen it?"

"It seems to be on the third floor of the table on your right." The young man thought for a while and asked curiously, "Why did you suddenly think of looking for that thing?"

Newt opened the table and quickly found an amber the size of a pigeon's egg in a drawer. It was a Burmese blood amber, formed in the Cretaceous period, with cloud-like flow lines.

The most precious thing is that there is a long-extinct one-horned ancient fly in the amber.

"A gift, a gift for Nico." The old man held up the amber. Under the sunlight, the blood amber showed a blood red color. He was going to pack the amber in a box.

"Didn't we go to the funeral and give gifts?" Rove was obviously a little surprised. Since we are going to the funeral, shouldn't we just go to the banquet?

And to give presents...is this going to a funeral, or a birthday party?

"It's also my first time participating. I don't know the details, so let's bring it. In case everyone else has brought a gift, we didn't bring it. It's not very embarrassing."

As soon as Newt thought of that image, his autism struck, and he didn't want to go to the funeral immediately.

"That makes sense...then what should I bring?"

Rove pinched his chin with one hand and rested his elbow with the other. He frowned and said, "Bring some wreaths? Or a Philosopher's Stone made of paper, which was burned for Nicole Flamel at the funeral."

"..."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. After Rove got up and opened the door, he saw a familiar figure.

Lockhart stood in the doorway, dressed in a rich purple silk gown sewn with gold thread, carrying a cane, his blond hair was polished and smelled of lavender.

"Hi Rove, we met on the Orient Express, remember me?"

"Of course I remember, Mr. Lockhart, the famous fantasy writer." Rove smiled.

"My child, I'm not a fantasy writer, but a realistic writer, and I write about real things." Lockhart extended his hand enthusiastically.

Rove didn't move, but Lockhart was not embarrassed at all, and instead pressed the boy's shoulder.

There were also quite a few reporters, all holding their cameras, taking pictures not far away. Lockhart made two or three gestures. Seeing that Rove was about to enter the door, he stopped quickly and shouted:

"Everyone, this boy and I... the grandson of Mr. Newt Scamander, experienced a terrible murder on the Orient Express.

I am already preparing to write a new book, The Orient Express, to chronicle this dreadful journey, and this child will have an important part. "

Rove raised his eyebrows. Is Lockhart planning to transfer what he did on the train to himself?

Lockhart did have this plan. In his opinion, Rove was just a little wizard. He had dealt with so many powerful wizards. Isn't a child in his hands?

"One more thing!" Lockhart continued:

"Mr. Newt Scamander invited me to come here for a meeting. We are both famous magizoologists and have won the Medal of Merlin...I believe there will be many common topics."

Lockhart took the Orient Express all the way to Istanbul, where he stayed for a while, and only recently came to the Romanian Fire Dragon Reserve.

Lockhart didn't expect that just after arriving here, Scamander suddenly wrote to invite him.

As a master of hype, he certainly would not let go of this opportunity, so he called a lot of reporters during his visit.

"My grandpa is waiting for you, go in quickly." Rove urged.

Lockhart walked in, and the reporters wanted to follow, but Rove stopped the door.

Rove knew that the purpose of Newt's invitation to Lockhart was actually to convey Dumbledore's letter, agreeing to Lockhart's application for the position of Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Rove didn't expect that Lockhart actually applied for this position on his own initiative.

After so many professors changed quickly, he still dared to apply, but he didn't know whether he was too stupid or too brave.

In short, Dumbledore was having a headache about this matter, and suddenly he sent a bad guy to his door.

Those outstanding wizards, Dumbledore actually didn't want to invite them, because they were afraid that something would happen to them, so they didn't dare to come. A dark wizard with a problem is even more afraid to go to Hogwarts.

I didn't expect Lockhart to be sent to the door like this. After a thorough investigation...

Dumbledore immediately responded "Yes".

standing in the room,

Hearing that Newt told himself that he was hired, Lockhart became excited.

Hogwarts has a special meaning to him.

Now after unremitting "hard work", he has returned with honor, which is undoubtedly a very fulfilling thing!

Of course, returning to the "hometown" is just one of them, and there are many other benefits of being a professor at Hogwarts.

For example... allowing students to buy his books as teaching materials, increasing sales, and adding a special halo to himself.

Mixing the title of Hogwarts professor is equivalent to "Dumbledore's approval"!

No matter how you look at it, applying to Hogwarts professors is a masterful step.

As for the dreaded rumors of the Defense Against the Dark Arts position, a professor who changes every year, the position seems to be cursed...

In Lockhart's view, it was just an exaggeration based on rumors, like an urban legend.

In fact, when he was in school, those professors had their own problems, and they didn't die suddenly like a curse.

Lockhart thought that as long as he was careful, nothing would happen to him.

Those professors in the past were all weak in strength, Lockhart thought he was different!

As long as he gets through the rest of the year, he can write another best-selling book on "Overcoming the Curse at Hogwarts" and make a fortune again.

Why not?
