Chapter 538： Lockharts deeds (2/2)
Hagrid put the rooster down, washed his hands with a bucket of water outside, opened the package, and poured the fudge into the bowl.
Albert doesn't know what to say. Isn't it good to eat in a box?
When he saw Hagrid's sausage-like fingers picking up the jelly, he realized that Hagrid was doing it for convenience.
”Are you really not eating?” Hagrid began to make tea for Albert.
”I just had breakfast.” Albert shook his head and said, ”By the way, I want to inquire with you.”
”what news?”
”About Lockhart, why did Dumbledore choose Lockhart as the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor?” Albert looked at Fang, who was quietly waiting to feed, and fed the remaining dried fish. ”I've been to Lockhart. The two special classes, to be honest, are really horrible.”
”It's very difficult to find a Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts now.” Hagrid threw a few more fudge into his mouth, waited for the water in the copper kettle to boil, poured a cup of amber tea for Albert and continued: ” People don’t really want to do it. They think this job is unlucky. You should know what I mean.”
”Oh, do you have an impression of Lockhart?” Albert asked again. ”I think most professors in the school don't like Lockhart very much.”
”Lockhart?” Hagrid took a sip of tea and recalled: ”Honestly speaking, everyone probably never thought that Lockhart would become a famous writer.”
”What kind of person is he?”
”Extremely narcissistic and vanity person.” Hagrid seemed to emphasize his tone and nodded his head heavily. ”It is because of this that everyone does not like it. When I was at Hogwarts school, It caused a lot of trouble for everyone.”
”trouble?”
”For example, before the Quidditch game, I engraved my name on the Quidditch court. Each letter was so big that it occupies almost the entire court.” Hagrid recalled: ”At that time, I cleaned up the mess for him overnight. , So the impression is very deep.”
”Like what Lockhart would do.” Albert said with a smile~ Any other deeds? ”
”Well, Lockhart used to secretly project his portrait into the sky at night, like a black mark...” Hagrid stopped halfway through his words, as if recalling something unpleasant The past.
”Dark Mark?”
”Well, you actually know the Dark Mark.” Hagrid couldn't help but smiled bitterly. ”At that time, Lockhart shocked everyone, thinking about his portrait suddenly appearing in the middle of the sky, causing it. It was a sensation.”
”It seems that he is really narcissistic and likes to recommend himself to others.” Albert asked suddenly, ”Has Lockhart come to you?”
”no, what happened?”
”I think he should come to chat with you soon!” Albert said, ”Anything else about Lockhart?”
”On another occasion, he sent himself a bunch of Valentine's Day greeting cards.” Hagrid did not understand what Albert said just now. ”At that time, I was not present. Later, I heard from the professors that a large number of owls flooded in. The auditorium sent Lockhart a bunch of greeting cards, and the scene was horrible.”
”By the way, how is Lockhart's academic performance? I mean his personal ability.” Albert briefly told Hagrid the deeds in Lockhart's book.
”I don't know, maybe Lockhart is indeed a bit talented, but he is definitely not a hard-studying student, otherwise it won't make the professors so annoying.” Hagrid doesn't believe Lockhart can do what Albert just said. Those deeds, ”I still remember that when he graduated from school, everyone was relieved.”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. When Hagrid walked over to open the door, he was stunned when he saw the people outside.
”You really got it right!” Hagrid murmured, and when he turned around, he found that Albert, who was sitting there, had disappeared.
