A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 85: Accident

At some point, Harry, Ron, and Hermione also arrived. Hermione was still wearing the huge mask and knitted hat, but her eyes had returned to brown.

This means that she is more proficient in Light Transfiguration—of course, it may also be the effect of Madam Pomfrey's potion.

Ron grabbed Harry and Hermione, who hid behind a pillar. He probed his head and said: "Cornelly Fudge, Lucius Malfoy, and Rita Skeeter! What day is it today, three annoying ghosts are here at the same time!"

Harry asked, "Who is Cornelius Fudge?"

"He's the Minister of Magic and my dad's boss. But he's a big shot, and he looks down on my dad's work, you know, dealing with Muggle items and things like that, which has never been taken seriously..." Ron mumbling.

Hermione's eyes were fixed on the woman Rita Skeeter, carefully studying her back.

"That woman is Rita Skeeter? She looks like she has terrible taste." Hermione complained about her outfit.

"I agree with you, if you ask me, Lockhart is better than her in this respect, and it's not like she doesn't have money... Oh, Merlin!" Ron wailed suddenly.

"What's wrong?"

"Over there, look over there," Ron pointed in another direction, "Lockhart is here too, and the four **** are here!"

Sure enough, Harry looked up and saw Gilderoy Lockhart in a gorgeous robe, with a charming smile on his face, passing the little wizard to Fudge and Lucius.

"He's like a peacock with its tail open." Ron's expression was very resistant-he was going to report to Lockhart's office tonight.

Lockhart saluted gracefully, with a bright smile, "Minister Fudge, Mr. Malfoy, it's an honor to meet you."

Fudge was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hands with a smile on his face, "Mr. Lockhart, hello, I have read all your books, I must admit, I have learned a lot..."

Lockhart said modestly: "I just did what I should do, Minister. I can't turn a blind eye to the poor people who are in trouble."

Fudge expressed emotion: "There are not many responsible adventurers like you."

Lockhart wanted to say something more, but Dumbledore stood up and said with a smile: "Fudge, let's take a look at the monster in the Chamber of Secrets first." The protective barrier disappears.

"Oh, Dumbledore, yes, that's right." Fudge squeezed the top hat on his hand, turned around, and gave an order to the tall, dark-skinned man next to him: "Kingsley , go check it out."

The man named Kingsley stepped over the railing and walked up to the basilisk. Wearing a pair of dragon leather gloves, he carefully examined the remains of the basilisk.

Felix didn't step forward, he saw a familiar figure, it was the Ravenclaw witch named Luna.

He paced over and stood beside her, "Luna."

"I like your gift very much, Professor Haip." Her eyes were fixed on Rita Skeeter's jewelry glasses, and she said in a singing voice: "I think she has a bad memory. .”

"Why do you say that?"

"She regretted leaving something important at home," Luna said.

Felix looked at Rita Skeeter who kept directing his assistants to take pictures, he was noncommittal.

"Have you made friends with the little girl with the flaming hair?"

Luna gave him a surprised look, "We are already friends." She said thoughtfully: "I think the rooster doll I gave her played a big role."

"Really!" Felix smacked his lips.

Not long after, Kingsley reported to Fudge: "Minister, it is confirmed that it is a basilisk, and it is no longer in danger."

"Very good, Kingsley." Fudge was about to take a closer look at the basilisk, but before he could take a step, he was stopped by Rita Skeeter's voice.

"Minister Fudge, I think we should take a photo together for tomorrow's front page." Skeeter said with a smile.

"Oh, of course there is no problem."

Several adults present stood in a row, Rita Skeeter rushed over and dragged Lockhart aside who was occupying the center position, "This is your place!"

Lockhart stood reluctantly on the edge.

"Professor Flitwick?"

Flitwick waved his hand and stepped aside.

"Click!" There was a shutter sound, and the photo was frozen.

Fudge, Dumbledore, Malfoy, Professor McGonagall, and Kingsley stand together, with a huge basilisk in the background.

After completing today's task, several people stood beside the basilisk. Fudge stepped forward, puffed out his stomach, and observed the basilisk carefully, "This thing has been in Hogwarts for thousands of years. How is it?" Hide yourself from being discovered?"

Professor McGonagall explained: "Through the pipes all over Hogwarts-the school has undergone several renovations, and the internal pipes are so dense that few people can figure out the whole picture, and they have never been thoroughly checked."

Fudge didn't speak, and discussed in a low voice with Lucius beside him.

Lockhart also came over, he looked at the basilisk, "It doesn't look too difficult to solve, I once encountered a water monster, it can fill half a lake." He used the magic wand in his hand He tapped the basilisk's fangs, and was about to say a witty word, but the wand in his hand immediately made a "sizzling" sound, "Oh, my God!" He frantically flicked the wand.

The young wizards watching on the side retreated more than ten meters quickly with great foresight, as if fleeing from famine.

But the Minister of Magic, who was looking down at the basilisk's head, was in trouble, and a drop of saliva and venom was thrown on Fudge's face, causing him to let out an earth-shattering scream.

Lucius Malfoy quickly set up a magic barrier, watching the farce with cold eyes. He maintained his magic and retreated, but just two steps back, he was blocked by a ring of golden light.

Felix did not know when he raised his wand, "Little wizards, step back."

Several professors were doing the same thing. The protective magic of Flitwick, McGonagall, and Dumbledore made the center of the courtyard colorful.

Hagrid stretched out his big palm-like hands, picked up the fallen little wizards one by one, and pushed them away.

But Lucius was closest to Fudge and Lockhart, he was separated by layers of magic ~IndoMTL.com~ A drop of venom mixed with saliva fell on his armor On the curse, there is a "Zi Zi" sound.

He yelled palely, "Stop, you idiot!"

Lockhart flicked his wand a few times before he realized what he had done. He stood in front of Fudge in a panic, trying to do something at a loss, "Oh, Minister Fudge, I'm sorry!"

But Fudge's screams became louder and louder, his face became pitch black, and the range expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The scene is like a mess.

"Quiet!" Dumbledore yelled, he dispelled the magic in front of him, stepped forward a few steps, and pressed his wand against Fudge's face, layer after layer of golden light diffused from the tip of the wand , the expanding black trace stopped.

Dumbledore took a closer look, "Further treatment is needed, Fudge, I will send you to the school hospital."

"No, send me to St. Mungo's! My face is ruined! Gilderoy Lockhart, I'm going to put you in Azkaban#￥%&...#&...# " Fudge spat out a series of obscenities.

"Oh, my God." Professor McGonagall pursed his lips, glared at the mad Fudge, resisting the urge to give him a stun spell. Finally, the Transfiguration professor yelled at the young wizards around him: "You, all the little wizards! Get out of here and go to class!"

The little wizards scattered like birds and beasts.

Rita Skeeter excitedly snatched the camera, and kept pressing the shutter like crazy. Her mouth was wide open, and her two huge gold teeth were shining brightly in the sun.

"Look at that woman, I can see her back molars!" Ron, who was hiding by the courtyard pillar, pointed at Rita Skeeter and said, "She got big news today!"
