Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

, the fastest update of Hogwarts on the tip of your tongue! Chapter 1308 The rippling storm

Over the next few days, Lockhart's "I have a dream" was repeated over and over again.

Major magic publications published the original text of his speech at one time, as well as the comments of people from all walks of life on this speech.

As time goes by, Elena is 98% sure that it will become the "full text recitation" of the magic world, and even this world.

Not only because it was adapted from Martin Luther King's speech, but luckily, in the world where Elena lives, the black man named Martin Luther King did not give a similar speech - the existence of black wizards To make the black and white contradictions in American society less extreme, some minor deflections have changed the historical trajectory.

More importantly, the wizarding world has not seen such provocative, personal heroic star characters in a long time.

A week later, even wizards from as far away as Serbian wizards saw the speech in the newspapers.

And the real scene about Judgment Day has become more and more legendary with the rounds of retelling.

The Amber Barrier became the best proof of Lockhart's prowess in magic—Professor McGonagall's "weak" explanation hardly made much noise in the mainstream press.

Many wizards swear that they saw with their own eyes nearly a hundred Aurors pulled out their wands and bombarded Lockhart indiscriminately for half an hour. In the end, if Lockhart hadn't voluntarily withdrawn the protection after his speech, they would have even lost a single hair of Lockhart's hair. It can't be hurt, and with people's constant retelling, even those wizards who had witnessed it at the scene still took the initiative to join in, proving that there were indeed a large number of Aurors and officials from the International Federation of Wizards trying to interrupt Loja at that time. special speech.

Following Lockhart's incarceration in Azkaban, imitations of his writings and presentations became popular.

Elena often hears at school now: "I have a dream..." or "A thousand years have passed..."

On the other hand, some of Lockhart's previous archives have also ensured that the heat doesn't dissipate any time soon.

For example, the three hot-selling new books that Lihen Bookstore put on the window display shelf at the door:

"Together with Death: Hunting the Dark Lord", "Blood-stained Coins: The Way of the Leprechaun Queen", "Risk Your Life: A Date with "The Witcher".

Lockhart first revealed the Horcrux to people in the book, detailing the price and stages of Voldemort's quest for immortality.

The secret of Voldemort's immortality was released to the public, along with information on several Horcruxes controlled by the Magical Government - and by the way, the Special Containment Procedures Foundation.

Of course, the foundation mentioned in Lockhart's book is a "table organization" jointly established by wizards from many countries.

In addition, Lockhart traces the foundation's foundation more than a dozen centuries back in his book "In the Company of Death: Hunting the Dark Lord."

Hmm... To be more precise, it should be traced back to the time in the foundation's membership charter "four thousand years ago".

Magic civilization and ancient wizards have become an important leading force in resisting anomalies and guarding the development of human civilization, which is undoubtedly very consistent with public logic and cognition. Whether it is an ancient pure-blood wizard, or a hemp or half-blood wizard who has just entered the magic world, they all believe in the ancient and mysterious wizarding organization described in the book.

As for the book "Blood-stained Gold Coins", it introduced the story of the rise of the fairy queen of Gringotts from the perspective of a bystander.

For the first time ever, wizards have been able to gain insight into the blood and blood behind Gringotts' alternation of powers.

This made people finally realize that fairies are not a chaotic and primitive group like centaurs and werewolves, but an intelligent race with a historical thickness comparable to that of humans.

Every coin circulating in the hands of a wizard may have been immersed in the blood of goblins. Lockhart described how he was kidnapped by goblins in his book, and participated in the new generation of goblins and the last one under semi-coercion and semi-voluntariness. The battle of fairies from generation to generation, the game of fairies from various magical kingdoms.

Of course, there is also the goblin queen who sets things right in the darkest hour and saves goblins and Gringotts, which is much better than the boring history of magic.

At the end of the book, there is even a brief mention of the cooperation between the Ministry of Magic and the fairies, such as the recovery of the Ministry of Magic's fire dragon lease and subsequent reconstruction and tax accounting.

Even if Lockhart deliberately added a statement on the title page of the book this time, "This story is purely fictitious, and any similarities are purely coincidental", but no one will really think that all stories are false - you know, in Lockhart In Te's novel, it even details the specific officials of the Ministry of Magic who were bribed by goblins, and some of the officials seized and extorted a lot of money from the goblins. It happened four or five times.

Most wizards have no way to verify the truth of the stories that happened in the depths of the Gringotts vault, but the outcry from Gringotts speaks volumes.

It is a pity that no matter how fiercely the goblins objected, and even angered the Ministry of Magic, it was impossible to punish Lockhart in prison again.

With the reaction of the Gringotts goblins, the sales of "Bloodstained Gold Coins" even reached the No. 1 best-seller in Lishen Bookstore.

No one is not curious about the power struggles that take place between goblins - after all, such **** coups are rare in the wizarding world.

Compared with the first two books, which were hot-selling as soon as they hit the shelves, the response to "Dating with "The Witcher" was much slower.

However, over time, the book jumped over the previous two and rushed to the top of the best-selling list in major bookstores.

Lockhart's original audience was mostly women, and this book can be said to be the most suitable subject for witches to read - a romance novel.

The wizarding world has always lacked excellent writers, especially wizard writers with delicate writing skills and good characterization, and the appearance of Lockhart undoubtedly filled this gap: the love story of wizard Arshee and Muggle female researcher Hart, in the following few years. Zhou has become an inevitable part of all witches' social and small talk.

In fact, from a literary point of view, in terms of detailed description, "Dating with the "Wizard's Death" is indeed more exciting than the first two books.

after all…

Strictly speaking, this book is the true romance novel written by Lockhart in its entirety.

The prototype of the story is actually Arkhipovna and himself. Although some plot modifications have been added, he can grasp the subtleties of emotions very well.

Well, the only problem—the book's sexuality is so undisguised that it's followed by some kind of weird label.

In the magical world, high-quality romance novels and romance action novels are equally scarce, which is also an important factor in the subsequent surge in sales of this book.

Many wizards lined up in major bookstores to buy this romance novel under the guise of helping their wives, girlfriends, older sisters, and younger sisters buy books.

Of course, as time goes by and the story is gradually read by people, the details hidden in the text are finally noticed.

People began to question the gray income of the Ministry of Magic, and questioned whether the magic government also had **** methods similar to goblins, and the illegal income of Umbridge and others, and the brutal and inhumane treatment of the Witcher by the International Confederation of Wizards, also became The focus of the society, the society even began to doubt the real reason for Lockhart's imprisonment.

In a panic, Cornelius Fudge almost planned to issue a ministerial order to restrict the continued publication of Gilderoy Lockhart's novels.

But at the last moment, Ms. Burns, head of the Division of Magical Law Enforcement, dismissed the bad idea:

"If you want to make sure everyone reads those books, get down to a political ban."

Ms. Burns analyzed it calmly, as if the ice water in summer had extinguished Fudge's anger.

And in the same week, the goblin analysts at the Ministry of Magic made the same judgment - in fact, they went further than Ms Burns.

As "goblin employees" employed by the Ministry of Magic, these analysts find the best way to find their value: as internal auditors of the Ministry, conduct a due diligence within the Ministry, and issue a credible report to the public. assets, income reports, to quell public opinion in the magical society.

Connelly Fudge and others were hesitant about this proposal at first, but when he saw the first "survey template", he immediately agreed.

The salary of the Ministry of Magic is not too high, and when the goblins cleverly spread out some of the expenses and the loss of files, the actual income is even lower.

When the goblins released the Ministry of Magic's income and assets survey, Fudge's first reaction was that he was so poor? !

However, with the goblins' explanation, he quickly understood the curious discrepancy between the asset appraisal report and the actual reality.

On this relatively unadorned, simple next page! Current 1 page/Total 2 pages

At the end of the 20th century, when the Gringotts elves released the detailed asset statistics and salary statistics of each copper nut, they still played a role in stopping losses in time - even if some people still thought it was a false report, But at least the Ministry of Magic has given a more perfect answer.

As for whether there will be wizards in the future who will figure out the secrets hidden deep in the financial statements, that is not something Gringotts and the Ministry of Magic are considering now.

With the response from Gringotts and the Ministry of Magic, the International Federation of Wizards also responded quickly.

The International Federation pledged to revisit the issue of "Witcher's Fate" and confessed that they have been fighting it.

This kind of rhetoric would have been weak, but the latest developments from the therapists at the Salz Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries gave the public and the federation confidence.

Judging from the progress of magic research over there, it is only a matter of time for wizards to conquer diseases such as "Wizard's Death" and "cancer" - the theoretical replacement magic and radiation removal have actually completed the magic foundation, and the rest is nothing but a matter of time. It is just organized into a systematic and effective healing magic, which is too timely for the Federation.

On the other hand, the newly established "Table Special Containment Procedures Foundation" also couldn't wait to stand in front of the stage and disclosed more details of the Horcrux to the public.

For example, the types of Horcruxes known so far, and of course, the process of containing some Horcruxes—

Lockhart's name reappeared because Lockhart happened to be on the scene during the containment of the "Marvolo Ring".

The local magic newspaper did a good job reporting it at the time, and the final word of "Newt Scamander" made the containment even more legendary.

All in all, with the help of the Ministry of Magic, Gringotts, the International Confederation of Wizards, and the Watch Foundation, the turmoil caused by Lockhart's new book has finally subsided.

But the troubles now facing the Ministry of Magic and the International Confederation of Wizards go far beyond that.

Inspired by Lockhart, the wizarding world has set off a mighty and large-scale "affirmative action" that covers all fields.

Many wizards are vying for the new leader of the "affirmative action" movement, and what's more worrying for officials is that wizards are starting to take an interest in Muggle technology.

Although the magical world has closed the main channels of entry and exit, the creations of Muggles still flow into the magical society like a tsunami.

Since the events of Grindelwald and Scamander that year, the warning of the International Federation of Wizards has once again soared to a peak.

The "magic exposure" level tips of the Ministry of Magic of various countries are breaking new highs almost every day.

The Division for the Prevention of Misuse of Muggle Objects has become the busiest agency at the Ministry of Magic, and Arthur Weasley now travels back and forth every day.

In the second week after the Lockhart speech, the Department for the Prevention of Misuse of Muggle Substances actually began an unprecedented large-scale recruitment expansion.

In fact, the Magical Government is debating whether to separate the department into one large division.

New types of Muggle technological creations appear every day, the Ministry of Magic is not even keeping up with half the speed of Muggle creativity, all kinds of magic-induced explosions, magic-modified Muggle items are scurrying around, and wizards have become popular to share their own Magical change ideas, although most of them are extremely dangerous and boring attempts in Arthur's view.

However, even without the magic modification, the convenience of many Muggle technologies was quickly recognized—many wizards were even able to make phone calls proficiently.

Of course, the focus of Arthur Weasley and the Aurors' work is not these Muggles, but those who use magic to reprocess Muggle creations.

In the original bylaws of the Ministry of Magic, the flow of magic transformation into the market and unauthorized magic transformation are all serious cross-border behaviors.

Judging from past experience, this kind of crossing the line is mildly fined, and in serious cases, it will even be arrested and tried by Aurors.

Aurors patrol the country every day and can't wait to catch a few who cross the line and teach them a lesson.

But the problem is that there are too many people crossing the line now, and the Aurors really don't know how to deal with it.

Some pure-blood families have offered to assist the Ministry of Magic, but the "ingredients" of pure-blood families are now extraordinarily complicated.

It is said that the Greengrass family participated in the potion factory, and the assembly lines are all over the UK. Now the small bottles of refreshing potions and white fresh sprays on the market have shares of the pure-blooded family headed by the Greengrass family, and they are keen to assist the Ministry of Magic. The reason for the Auror was to attack another group of colleagues who had invested in the potion factory.

The potion market is now not just the original small workshop model. Industrialization and the entry of family and government capital have made it a meat grinder.

Even if the Aurors had the relevant evidence that some potions had flowed into the Muggle world, they would not dare to seize or ban a potion factory at will.

No one knows how many terrible interest chains are hidden behind a brand of potion.

The Malfoy family is extra low-key, they have not joined the competition similar to the potion market.

Because their main focus is on the sanitary napkin brand "Magic Space", which makes them profitable and has become a talking point for many high-class people.

The elegant and ancient Malfoy family has become the newly emerging "magic sanitary napkin" tycoon in the magical and even non-magical worlds. This is undoubtedly the only light-hearted and bizarre episode in the chaos. Someone in the Auror office has proposed an idea. To investigate the Malfoy estate, but was quickly suppressed by angry witches.

The magical world has finally created a stable feminine hygiene product company, and any actions that hinder the expansion of the Malfoy family will undoubtedly cause public anger.

Although the name "Magic Sanitary Pad Tycoon" is not elegant, Malfoy is now extremely at ease.

One thing Lucius was sure of was that the Malfoys could prosper for centuries again.
