Hogwarts Homecoming

Chapter 29 Inexplicable

The school-opening dinner ended with an embarrassingly cold joke made by Dumbledore, and the little wizards dispersed in twos and threes. Until the end, they failed to understand the purpose of Amosta's return to school. In the first week, there will be a mighty detective campaign in the school.

Amosta had already left before the little wizards. He hadn't forgotten that he didn't come here for vacation when he returned to Hogwarts. When all the little wizards gathered neatly in the auditorium, his task It's officially started.

In the following time, until he finds the secret room, he will probably live a day and night life upside down, sleeping during the day and working at night. This will be a very hard day.

In the monitoring room, Amosta sat on a chair, staring at the scene gradually filled with people's heads. He focused on those young wizards who were alone, and observed whether their behavior was contrary to common sense. Of course, Loha Professor Te is also one of the objects of his attention.

The Chamber of Secrets didn't appear sooner or later, but it happened to be opened when Lockhart was the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, which he couldn't help doubting.

After dinner, under the leadership of the prefects, most of the young wizards from each college returned to their common room. However, there were about a dozen young wizards who sneaked out while everyone was not paying attention.

Among them, more than half are Gryffindor students.

Harry and Ron went to the school hospital, and the Weasley brothers took advantage of Filch's inattention on tour, and rushed into the passage leading to the Hufflepuff common room located underground. Before building the fruit oil painting on the wall, he manipulated it a bit, and then jumped in.

Amosta also saw Penelope Clearwater who walked into the Ravenclaw lounge, but turned back after a while, and Percy Weasley also left Gryffindor at almost the same time There are multiple lounges. It can be predicted that there will be another fierce kiss somewhere in the castle.

Except for Professor McGonagall and Professor Lockhart who returned to the office to work overtime after the dinner, the rest of the professors basically stayed in the staff dormitory. Before entering his office, Headmaster Dumbledore turned and faced the corridor thirty feet away Tianhua blinked his blue eyes playfully, as if to say hello.

Amosta pouted, looking away from the screen.

Nothing unusual happened, everything was normal, and the result did not exceed Amosta's expectation. Unless one was very lucky, one could not expect to gain anything in ten days and half a month.

The fireplace with exquisitely carved patterns was full of flames, and Amosta was leaning on the back of the chair holding a cup of bitter hot tea, his gaze swept across the entire wall from time to time, with a calm expression on his face.

About half an hour later, the person on the monitoring screen was still active and turned into a ghost. Amosta saw Peeves wearing a funny round hat and smirking and rushing into a bathroom on the second floor that had been abandoned for many years. After a while, the door of the bathroom began to seep water into the corridor outside.

The long night had just fallen, and Amosta was already feeling bored. He went to his desk and got a copy of "Basic Model of Spells and Structural Optimization" that he was compiling, and flipped through it casually, looking for inspiration.

Suddenly, there was movement on the monitoring screen in the lower right corner. Professor Lockhart changed into a purple robe and came out with a few books between his hands. He was full of smiles and personable, looking at the direction he was going, it seemed to be his monitoring room .

Both of his offices were on the first floor, and within two minutes, Professor Lockhart appeared outside his office.

tuk tuk -

The moment the knock on the door sounded, Amosta swung down his magic wand, a huge black curtain covered the wall, and the stool under his butt jumped back to the desk with the steps of a tap dance, straightened himself and returned to normal.

"Professor Lockhart?" Amosta opened the door with just the right surprise, "What are you doing?"

Amostar brought Unexplained Lockhart into the office, and he poured him a cup of tea, but Lockhart didn't seem to want to drink it.

"—In fact, it is so,"

Lockhart was going to explain why he came here, but when he found a copy of "Wandering with Werewolves" on Amosta's bookshelf, the smile on his face was too bright,

"It was my mistake, it was my mistake, Amosta, I should have thought of it earlier, but I didn't realize it," he winked at Amosta who was a little confused, "A cunning and crazy admirer , isn’t it, it’s really a way that surprised me!”

"Sorry, Professor Lockhart, maybe I'm too slow to understand what you want to express"

"There's no need to hide it anymore, Amosta, you're trying to get into Hogwarts just to get close to me, right?"

Lockhart smiled happily, "Professor McGonagall told me that the school council sent an investigator to investigate the secret room. I think you must have spent a lot of money to do this!"

Amosta looked at the bookshelf in the direction Lockhart was looking at, and blinked,

"If you are referring to the book "Wandering with Werewolves", it is like this. I had some trouble with a group of werewolves at that time. In order to deepen my understanding of them, I found some of the most famous books."

"Aha, it's finally exposed, isn't it!"

Lockhart seemed to have finally grasped Amostar's handle,

"It's like Miss Granger from the second year, who knows me well, yes, yes, when talking about that book, many people are amazed by the calmness and courage I showed when I was trapped in the phone booth by werewolves, but You are different, Amosta, you want to learn how I settled down with the werewolf, right?"

An hour later, Lockhart left Amosta's office contentedly. Standing in front of the door, he lowered his voice and said to Amosta,

"Don't worry about not being able to explain to the board of directors, Amosta, the secret room attack will not happen again, as for the reason, you must know, right?" Lockhart winked at Amosta again, "Because I just it's here!"

Amostar watched Professor Lockhart go away. He closed the door and stood in front of his desk, staring at the gift Lockhart gave him—a set of signed hardcover books.

"Hey, what an interesting guy!" Amosta suddenly laughed.

Back at Hogwarts at night, Amosta and Professor Snape talked about the suspicious people in the school. When Gilderoy Lockhart was mentioned, the disdain and sarcasm in Snape's tone were beyond words, But just didn't think there would be a problem with Lockhart, Amostar was quite puzzled at the time.

"However, as a well-known celebrity writer in the magic world, he is at least a friendly wizard."

It's not easy to write about a person with such a distinctive personality as Lockhart. . .
