Hogwarts: The frog cub brings back the Dragon Slayer Crystal at the beginning

As the start of school gets closer, a group of little wizards buy books almost every day at Flourishes and Blotts Bookstore opposite the potion shop.

Most are first-year students.

In the past few days, Lorne has often seen little first-year wizards come to the store to watch, and they kept asking curious questions.

"Oh, those Lockhart books used up half my savings in one go!"

Hermione calculated the Galleons it would cost to buy Lockhart's books, and finally crawled on the table in despair and said helplessly.

"Why are you so anxious? I haven't given you the share yet..."

Lorne said leisurely while sitting on a recliner with a book.

You must know that a small part of the potions sold in the store were made by Hermione.

Smart Hermione After the young lady discovered that she couldn't learn alchemy, she turned to Lorne and asked her to teach her how to make potions. Of course,

Lorne would not refuse his little girlfriend's opinions.

From compound potions to love potions, he taught her everything Hermione.

But for some reason, Hermione was only interested in the love potion. She was also prepared to test the drug on him.

This gave Lorn a headache. If he really drank the love potion, he would probably The next time they meet is Hermione's visit to the prison.

With Miss Hermione's participation, Lorne usually feels a lot more relaxed.

So Hermione deserves a share of the share.

"Let me think about it, I made about 6,000 gold galleons this month, so we can split it equally."

Lorne thought for a while and said with a chuckle.

However, Hermione shook her head:"I didn't do much, I gave too much."

"Stop it, we two don’t have to say this anymore."

Lorne quickly skipped the topic.

"Instead of thinking about that, you might as well look at how many Lockhart books the two of us have purchased."

He pointed to a pile of books placed next to the table. Most of them were Lockhart's travel books, used to kill boring time.

In this semester's Defense Against the Dark Arts class, they bought them during the holidays. Books account for more than half of it, so that’s all I need to buy, and it doesn’t cost much.

"How come there are so many?"

Hermione said in disbelief after reading through it.

She remembered that she only bought one or two copies.…

"I bought the rest."

Lorne said helplessly.

There was no way. Apart from alchemy, Lockhart's travel stories were the most interesting in Flourish and Blotts Bookstore.

If he hadn't known Lockhart's character, he would have really thought that the author was a The legendary great wizard.

Ha, Lockhart...

Lorne laughed.

He remembered that the other person seemed to be just a master of the forgetting spell. All the stories were copied from other people's minds and polished with his own writing. , which led to such a popular reputation

"You seem to enjoy reading his books more than I do."

Hermione walked to Lorn and said holding a notebook.

"The book is good, but there is something wrong with the person."

Lorn shrugged, not knowing how to explain this to Hermione.

After all, he and Lockhart have never met, so his words are unfounded.

I always hear Lorn commenting on Lockhart like this, and even Miss Hermione doesn't Feeling repulsed by the authors of these books

"Can you help me see if snake skin can be added to this potion?"

Hermione said and handed the note to Lorn.

After taking a look at the formula, Lorn thought for a while and nodded.

"Can!"

Then Lorne put down the book in his hand and began to explain to Hermione the refining process of this bottle of potion.

Recently, Hermione has been working hard on potions and has been brewing various kinds of potions in the basement. Magic potion.

She even started refining the compound potion that lasted for several months.

Although it may not be completed by the start of school.

Hermione listened to Lorne's explanation while turning the silver ring on her white finger..

She also had a rough understanding of the runes engraved on it.

The general meaning was: love, health, romance, relaxing time...

This brought her feelings for Lorne one step closer.

And the rings between the two of them were The runes are all exactly the same.

It’s hard not to think wrongly

"What are you thinking about, so fascinated?"

Lorne pinched the little nose of Hermione who was smiling and asked curiously.

"Do you know the meaning on the ring?"

Hermione knocked off the finger that pinched her nose in dissatisfaction, and then asked Lorne

"of course I know."

Lorne smiled and nodded. He understood what Hermione was thinking.

"You are the most romantic person I have ever seen!"

Miss Hermione pinched Lorne's cheek with her hand and smiled as brightly as a flower.

"I hope to be the only one you've ever met."

Lorne's light blue eyes were smiling.

————

Lockhart is coming.

The man who is an internationally renowned adventure writer, a third-level medalist of the Order of Merlin, an honorary member of the Anti-Dark Arts Alliance, and a five-time winner of the"Wizard Weekly" Most Charming Smile Award, has come to Diagon Alley.

Both the Daily Prophet and the Quibbler reported on this incident.

Lockhart's book signing will be solemnly held at Flourish and Blotts Bookstore in five days.

Hermione and Lorne, who lived opposite, naturally got the news.

Lorne could already predict how booming the business would be five days later, but his potion store would be empty.

After hearing Lorne's sigh, Hermione couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.

She knew that in this month, Lorne earned as much Galleons as Flourish and Blotts Bookstore and Mrs. Malkin's Clothing Store.

And in comparison, Lorne is very relaxed here. He just reads books and refines medicine here every day.

No need to be busy at all.

Five days passed quickly.

Hermione was awakened by the sound outside the window. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and turned to look at Flourish and Blotts Bookstore opposite.

Before it gets dark, there are already many wizards standing at the door waiting.

Most of them are young witches and wizards. After all, Lockhart is still very handsome and has been the hero on the cover of magazines several times.

But in Miss Granger's opinion, Lockhart was not as good-looking as her own Lorne.

Miss Hermione turned her head and looked at the clock on the wall. It was only about five o'clock.

How crazy... she thought, then cast a silencing spell with her wand and continued to sleep on the soft bed.
