"Peeves?"

Lorne raised his head and took a look.

He has been avoiding Peeves since the last time he cast an illusion on him.

This is the first time he has seen him this semester.

I saw Peeves hanging on a On the painting, there is a weird smile on the face and a harsh sound

"It's playing tricks again."

Lorne shrugged.

The one-year-old wizards have already been tortured enough, and many of them complained during the meal.

"It feels like it hasn't appeared in a long time."

Hermione whispered thoughtfully, and she glanced at Lorne as she spoke.

Peeves seemed to be particularly afraid of Lorne after he laughed at the two of them during their first meeting.

It seemed that he was attracted by the two. Attracted by the personal voice, Peeves turned his head and glanced behind. His funny expression immediately froze.

"Geralt——"

Peeves screamed, and then crashed into the wall in a panic.

What did this ghost see in the illusion?

Lorne couldn't help but think curiously.

It's really rare to be able to scare Peeves to this extent.

After seeing Peeves disappear, Lorne and Hermione walked up to the Room of Requirement on the eighth floor.

He will make some more alchemy tools tonight.

For example, the ring of the three unforgivable curses

………

Early next morning.

In the Great Hall of Hogwarts.

Today was a rest day, so the two of them got up late. When they arrived at the auditorium, there were not many little wizards left.

After a simple breakfast, Lorne took Hermione to the edge of the Black Lake to practice spells.

It's considered after-school tutoring.

Because in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, Lockhart would only teach some ordinary little magic spells, without mentioning anything like Expelliarmus, especially after the last elf incident.

Although Lockhart's magic spells were still very impressive in wizard duels, only he knew that the magic spells were all activated by rings.

Without those rings, he wouldn't even be able to cast the Iron Armor Curse, let alone the Vulcan to open the way.

Lockhart from Ravenclaw did have wisdom, but that wisdom was completely misguided.

It's like forgetting everything

"The wand gesture was wrong."

Seeing a puff of white smoke coming out of Miss Hermione's wand, Lorne knew that she had failed again.

"Thunderbolt blast should be used with the pick gesture!"

Lorne walked up behind Miss Granger and gently held her little hand, preparing to teach her step by step.

Feeling the warmth coming from the back of her hand, Hermione's fair cheeks turned red.

Her hands were so warm.

No, no, no. , I can’t think about it anymore!

She shook her head quickly, half-closed her eyes and braced herself to listen to Lorne’s teaching.

I have to say that Miss Hermione’s talent is still very powerful, and she learned it after only half an hour of studying. Got it

"Thunderbolt Blast——"

A large splash of water exploded on the black lake, creating ripples in circles.

Hermione looked at her masterpiece, and the corners of her mouth slowly turned up.

At this time, Lorne was leaning on a stone, looking leisurely at Fred's small stall in the distance.

In recent days, the card business has been getting better and better, and Fred and others are almost overwhelmed.

I had no choice but to use card packs to hire some little wizards to help.

"Lorne Geralt!"

A confident call sounded, causing Lorne to turn his head and look.

He saw Lockhart walking towards here in a gorgeous cloak, with his white teeth exposed that were very conspicuous in the sun.

He was here to buy a ring. Is it?

Lorne thought of the broken iron armor curse ring during the duel with the wizard.

Because it could not withstand the too strong curse and was being carried under a heavy load, it was directly broken into pieces.

"What's wrong with Professor Lockhart?"

Lorne nodded and said hello, and then asked softly

"Oh, Miss Granger is here too? Lockhart did not answer him, but glanced at the girl who was still practicing magic spells by the lake,"You two are really the most talented people I have ever seen."…"

"Okay, professor, the two of us are not as exaggerated as you said!"

Looking at Lockhart who was still chattering, Lorne interrupted him helplessly.

"If you have anything to say, just say it"

"What can happen to me - well, indeed..."

Seeing Lorne ask, Lockhart gave up after a symbolic struggle. He slowly approached Lorne and asked in a low voice,"Come on Do you still have the ring you purchased last time?"

"Of course there is."

Lorne nodded.

"No, I mean could those rings be strengthened?"

Lockhart glanced around and saw that there was no little wizard around, and then asked softly.

"You know, I'm just a second-year wizard..."

Lorne pretended.

He had indeed strengthened the runes on the ring not long ago, so that he would not be as vulnerable as when facing Snape..But he has no idea of ​​selling it to Lockhart.

"Do you have any dreams?"

Seeing Lorne's look, Lockhart understood that he was perfunctory, so he changed the topic.

"dream?"

Lorne gave him a confused look, not understanding what he was trying to do.

"For example, becoming an Auror at the Ministry of Magic. You know, as a celebrity, I always have a lot of friends, even if you fail the exam. Lockhart said seductively.

In his opinion, no young wizard can refuse the position of working in the Ministry of Magic!

This is a matter of honor, and the Auror can also be regarded as an iron rice bowl.

"Do you have someone at the Ministry?"

Lorne couldn't help but glance at him, his tone full of doubts.

"What does it mean to have someone from the Ministry of Magic? Lockhart raised his eyebrows,"I just have a wide network of contacts.""

"Help me make the ring, and leave your Auror exams to me in the future!"

Lockhart stated his purpose without concealment.

"Even Secretary Fudge, I know him."

After hearing this, Lorne thought for a while.

He was not interested in the Auror position at all.

But Lockhart's last sentence attracted him.

"Someone is there…"

"make a deal."

Lorne raised his head and replied with a smile.

Perhaps Lockhart can be used to pave the way for Miss Hermione's ministerial position in advance.
