Really embarrassing.

Even Dumbledore didn't expect that Lockhart was so clear about what happened to him when he was young. He could also know about his mother's death, his sister's magic power out of control, and his brother's incomprehension...and even know what he and Grindelwald did. There have been neighbors, there have been like-minded people...

If you don't like "Mary Sue".

He almost suspected that Lockhart broke into Nurmengard and usurped Grindelwald's memory.

of course……

He finally held back.

Because in retrospect.

In fact, many of these things are known - as long as they are willing to investigate, it is not difficult to find out - and there is no "bad news" from Nurmengard.

He lost his mind about writing to Lockhart.

at the same time……

I don't want to continue to be bored in the office - after reading it, I will be dull in my heart after all.

"Have something to eat." Thinking that he hadn't had breakfast yet, Dumbledore regained his mood, returned to his amiable daily appearance, and slowly slipped from the principal's office to the auditorium.

I met many little wizards along the way.

Lively;

cheerful;

angry...

This made Dumbledore's mood gradually clear.

Then--

He was surrounded:

"Mr. Dumbledore, may I ask if you really liked a girl named Mary Sue?"

"I read "A History of Magic in the 20th Century", which introduced that you and Grindelwald once had a legendary duel... Did you duel because of Mary?"

"Grindelwald really used the love potion to occupy Mary?"

"Mr. Dumbledore, can you give us the details?"

"Do you have a picture of Mary?"

"The book "Dumbledore in Love with Me" hasn't been finished yet, you are alone so far, is it because you and Mary failed to get together in the end..."

"..."——Dumbledore finally failed to enjoy breakfast in the auditorium.

He returned to the principal's office.

And decided to hide for two days before the matter passed, it is best not to show his face again, this kind of thing is actually nothing in his long life, he still has a little experience, just have time to continue to check Ringo and Bor's death Eucalyptus relationship——

He had a connection with Scrimgeour, and he also felt that there was something strange about it.

Think so.

Dumbledore returned to the Pensieve, ready to continue to observe the memory of visiting the route described by Ringo in the past few days.

then……

He received a subpoena from the Ministry of Magic's Law Enforcement Division.

The content of the subpoena is as follows:

Gilderoy Lockhart accused the "Daily Prophet" and "Dumbledore in Love with Me" of infringing his right of reputation, demanding that Dumbledore reprint the autobiography, cancel the cover that was falsely advertised in his name, and Clarify everything publicly - Lockhart is already at the Ministry of Magic waiting for a meeting to negotiate.

"It's not Lockhart's book?"

Dumbledore re-read the cover of the novel, looking at the author's name in tiny print, dumbfounded, "It's not clean now..."

"096" wins numb

It's really not clean anymore.

Because on the day when the "Daily Prophet" published a new headline, Lockhart reacted and immediately held a press conference, severely criticizing the "Daily Prophet" for stealing his name, and said that "Dumbledore fell in love with "I" is not my new book, my new book is "I Can Magic", three-quarters of it has been written, and I will try to write it in the summer vacation...

Simultaneously.

Lockhart speculated that "Dumbledore in Love with Me" is Dumbledore's autobiography or semi-autobiography, in short, Dumbledore was directly hung up.

Fortunately, the tone is very gentle.

Said that as long as the principal reprints the cover...

The news hit the newspaper.

Immediately attracted those who did not buy the book——

What book?so smart?Dare to steal Lockhart's name?And the title of the book is too powerful, right?

Dumbledore in love with me?Merlin's beard, if it is an autobiography, is Dumbledore planning to publish his love history?

for a while...

Sales of "Dumbledore in Love with Me" have increased rather than decreased.

But at the same time……

The anticipation of "I Can Magic" has also risen rapidly.

And Dumbledore had no choice but to go to the Ministry of Magic and Lockhart to accept mediation-fortunately, the mediation was easily successful.

after all……

He didn't know what the book was about.

As such.

In theory, he has nothing to do with it.

But the problem is...

In addition to him and Lockhart, people from the Rumihart Book Company and the "Daily Prophet" came to mediate.

And these two charges against Lockhart.

One by one they shouted their innocence.

The former stated that Lockhart is a signed author of his company, and it is a normal business activity to use his fame to promote newcomers and new books.

Not only can it increase the sales of newcomers and new books, but it can also increase his fame and activity, so that he can often show his face in front of the public when he is not publishing.

The latter said that it was a mistake in the newspaper's work. It should have been "Gidero Lockhart recommends a new book", but an ink dot accidentally covered the word "recommended".That's why it became "Lockhart's new book". Lockhart is too on-line.

—Lockhart didn't forgive them for what they said.

So...

The content of the evening paper that day became that Rumihart Book Company, the "Daily Prophet" company and Dumbledore refused to apologize, and Lockhart actively sought legal means.

And after Dumbledore went back.

Once shown.

The questions of the little wizards are also updated and iterated in time:

"It turns out that "Dumbledore in Love with Me" is your autobiography, Headmaster!"

"I just found out that the author is Mary Sue, oh... the author's name is exactly the same as the heroine's name, Mr. Dumbledore, are you going to disclose your relationship?"

"Demon Museum"

"Principal, when did you secretly get married?"

"..." Even the professors...

Occasionally, there will be an expression of "So you are such Dumbledore";

McGonagall was hesitant to speak when she reported several times;

Snape turned his eyes to look at him as soon as he appeared, with the look that I understand you...

The next day, Dumbledore had to contact the newspaper to clarify again that the book and the incident had nothing to do with him.

However, it didn't work.

Even after clarification.

He began to receive some inexplicable anonymous letters.

It is estimated that most of these letters came from Lockhart's readers, and it is estimated that most of them were students of Hogwarts.

So facing the world's most famous wizard with the addition of the old principal.

Their tone is still very gentle.

It's nothing more than asking Dumbledore to show some face, if he doesn't clarify sooner or later, if he doesn't clarify on this point, wouldn't it look like he was forced by Mr. Lockhart?As the principal of a famous school, you still have to pay attention to evening festivals and the like.

as predicted.

On that day, the "Daily Prophet" once again published an evening paper, in which there was a special section for readers' comments.

Both positive and negative.

The positives are nothing more than:

"Mr. Dumbledore is a world-renowned archmage. If you really write an autobiography, you don't need Lockhart's recommendation at all, and it will sell better than Lockhart's new book."

"Lockhart has no scruples about the principal's previous education, so he is so unreasonable."

"Honestly no matter who the author is, 'Dumbledore in Love with Me' is good enough to be a bestseller because it's so good."

"I strongly recommend "Dumbledore in Love with Me", I will never regret watching it..."

The opposite is:

"Third-rate writing, second-rate content, how dare you touch Mr. Lockhart, a first-rate writer?"

"I don't think this is Dumbledore's work, but it must not be his, but also someone he is familiar with. Considering that the author's name is the same as the heroine's name, it should be the object of his admiration or the descendant of the object of admiration. Sure enough It's good money to be the descendant of a famous wizard!"

""Dumbledore in Love with Me" is a romance novel, only women will like to read it, unlike Lockhart's works, it is a book that men should read!"

"..." compared to positive mild rhetoric.

Negative criticism is extremely sharp.

And soon, using this as an extension set off a bigger scolding war.

Not only the "Daily Prophet", but also other newspapers such as "Diagon Alley News" and "Gargoyle Newspaper" have opened up new sections, which are to publish letters of insults from readers every day.

And the content...

Nor is it limited to Dumbledore and Lockhart, "Dumbledore in Love with Me" and "I Can Magically", the false propaganda of Rumihart Books and the misprint of the Daily Prophet.

Instead, it extends to topics such as whether it is appropriate for well-known wizards to use their positions and connections to pave the way for incompetent younger generations, the solidification of classes in the magic world, and the confrontation between male and female wizards.

For a while, a group of demons danced wildly.

So much so that when someone brought up the topic of "Whether Ringo Shelby is the real culprit behind Bol's murder?"

Others are still stunned.

Then he was forced to answer "Didn't the Ministry of Magic announce the end of the case?", "Why do you still pay attention to such boring things?" Shouldn’t their interests be more concerned?” and other answers.

Even at Hogwarts.

As the instigator, Ringo walked on the campus road, and not many people cared.Even the little lions, little badgers, little eagles and even some little snakes would ask him for his opinion from time to time when discussing scolding after class.

As for Shelby is the real murderer!

what?

Who is Shelby?

Who did he kill?

Bol family?Oh, yes, the Boer family was wiped out, but it was closed long ago...

In such chaos.

Gilderoy Lockhart held another press conference and announced that "Dumbledore is in Love with Me" will be published in two parts. This time, the first part will be published. The publishing company is still Rumiha special book company;
