Hogwarts Mysterious Man Resurrected

Chapter 60: Encountering an Unexpected Event



"Professor, I'm a little confused." Percy frowned, feeling that today might be his most exciting day.

Not to mention anything else, just the ideas mentioned by Professor Lockhart broke the rules of the wizarding world deep in his heart.

Wizards and Muggles, everyone is equal, is this possible?

"That's normal, kid." Lockhart's tone was slow and suggestive.

"But you have to remember that we should not evaluate a person based on his noble bloodline."

"Rather, we evaluate a person based on their moral character, knowledge and wisdom."

"Whether they are wizards or non-magical Muggles, this is the ultimate philosophy of our brotherhood."

Lockhart patted Percy's shoulder and said seriously.

"I understand, Professor." Although he was still a little confused deep down, Percy had begun to accept the ideas that Professor Lockhart told him.

After all, he was about to become a member of the "Brotherhood."

"Very well, Percy."

Lockhart looked very happy. He left Percy's side and came to the cabinet containing the basilisk skin.

"But if you want to enter the fraternity, there is another condition."

"What Professor?" Percy looked at Lockhart, waiting for his next answer.

"You still need to complete a task, an audit task that is unique to you. When you complete the task, it will be when you join the Brotherhood." Lockhart said meaningfully, when he looked into Percy's eyes Dark and bright.

He walked to Percy's side, rested his head on Percy's shoulder, and whispered a few words in his ear.

There was a flash of fear in Percy's eyes, but it was followed by even stronger determination.

After finishing speaking, Lockhart took a few steps back.

Then, he took the initiative to hold Percy's hand.

"I look forward to the day when you join us."

"I will, Professor."

Percy nodded heavily, which made Lockhart smile with satisfaction again.

"Okay, Percy, it's time for you to go, remember you have to learn to hide your identity now."

"Okay, Professor"

Percy nodded, and when he left, he was still in a daze.

What happened today really impacted his worldview.

It also made him feel that his previous self was too narrow-minded.

It was also the first time that Percy had the idea of ​​fighting for himself. For this idea, he could devote his whole life to it.

As Percy reached the door, Lockhart's voice came.

"Percy, remember, you haven't seen me today."

Percy turned his head subconsciously and met Lockhart's somewhat meaningful eyes.

At that moment, he knew that Professor Lockhart should have other tasks.

No one should know that he had ever met him.

After all, his review task is also

Without thinking any more, Percy stepped out of the classroom.

Looking at the neat walls outside, he took a deep breath.

Until now, he was still in a daze, as if everything he had just done was fake.

But Percy knew that what he had just experienced was real, and it was also something he needed to keep secret in the future.

After Percy left, "Lockhart" stroked the basilisk's skin again. He seemed to be suppressing his emotions, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised with a weird smile.

"Take it easy, Tom."

"We will meet soon"

Under the dim light, Professor Lockhart's eyes and the smile on his face looked so weird.

At least, in the eyes of Harry and Hermione, Professor Lockhart's smile at this moment was not very friendly.

He took out his wand and waved it back and forth in his hand.

This made both Harry's hearts suddenly rise, fearing that Lockhart would attack them.

But apparently Lockhart didn't do that.

He just walked up to Harry.

"The basilisk, that's not an easy creature to get along with."

"If, when you encounter it, it is best not to look into its eyes, but to close them, although this may make you die faster."

Harry was a little confused, what does it mean when they encounter a basilisk?

Although there was probably a basilisk in the secret room, that was in the past, and the basilisk was probably dead in the secret room now.

After all, the last time they went to the secret room, the basilisk in the secret room never showed up.

From this it can be seen that the basilisk in the secret room has probably been dead for a long time.

Otherwise, why didn't that person call the basilisk to deal with them at that time?

Just like 50 years ago.

Lockhart smiled softly, and he naturally guessed what Harry was thinking.

"Harry, the basilisk doesn't die that easily."

"If you don't believe it, you can ask Hermione."

Lockhart's words made Harry question.

If the basilisk wasn't dead, why didn't it come out that day?

With a trace of doubt, Harry looked at Hermione, only to find that Hermione was staring ahead in a daze.

He walked over and patted her gently.

Lockhart looked at Hermione meaningfully, with his charming sunny smile on his face.

After being slapped by Harry, Hermione came back to her senses and saw both Harry and Lockhart looking at her.

"What's the matter?" Her face didn't look very good, a little pale.

"What's wrong Hermione?" Seeing that Hermione's face looked wrong, Harry put aside his doubts and asked her with concern.

"Professor, I suddenly remembered that Harry and I have something to do. Can we go first?"

"What?" Harry looked at Hermione in confusion. He remembered that he had nothing urgent to do today.

But when the words reached his throat, Harry saw Hermione's look telling him to shut up.

"Okay, you are a little tired after writing so many letters today. It's really time to go back and rest."

Lockhart was startled at first, but when he realized it, he agreed to let them leave.

Hermione watched as he put his wand away and put it in his wizard's robes.

"Thank you, Professor" Hermione said gratefully with a smile on her face.

"You're welcome, go ahead, kids."

After Lockhart agreed to let them go, Hermione left Lockhart's office with a smile on her face and Harry, who didn't know what was going on.

After they left, the smile on Lockhart's face disappeared, and his eyes were particularly deep at this time.

After Hermione took Harry for a certain distance, the smile on her face disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"What happened Hermione?" At this moment, Harry asked the doubts in his heart.

He saw something wrong with her expression just now.

Hermione gave Harry a sharp look, which made him confused.

"I suspect Professor Lockhart has been replaced."

"What?" Harry looked at Hermione in shock, "Hermione, I know that Professor Lockhart is not a liar."

"Didn't you see the wand in his hand?" Harry was interrupted by Hermione before he could finish his words.

Hermione looked impatient, she knew exactly what Harry meant.

But the problem is, she doesn't have that idea at all.

"What happened to the wand in Professor Lockhart's hand?"

"That's Ginny's wand. You must have forgotten what happened a few days ago, right?"

Harry's mind was in a mess. Even if he was stupid, he would have reacted now.

What's more, Harry isn't stupid either.

"Voldemort." Harry gritted his teeth and spat out these words fiercely.

On the spot, he was about to go back, but was stopped by Hermione.

She looked at Harry like a crazed lion, making him feel terrified.

"Harry, now is not the time to be impulsive. We should go to Professor Dumbledore and tell him that Lockhart may be replaced."

"Okay, Hermione."

Harry opened his mouth, but in the end he gave up on going back.

This gave Hermione a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Harry would go back and die if his brain got hot.

After making their choice, the two went to the principal's office on the eighth floor.

But when they just walked out of the corridor, they met someone head-on.

To be precise, it was a Gryffindor student lying on the ground.

And he is someone they are all familiar with.

just

Looking at the figure lying on the ground, Harry was stunned.

That's Colin Creevey.
