Study Days at Hogwarts

Chapter 530 The Missing Savior

Lee Jordan didn't know much about Professor Gilderoy Lockhart. He learned that Gilderoy Lockhart was going to serve as Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts from the book signing at Flourish and Blotts Bookstore. professor.

"Tell me, is Lockhart really as great as the book says?"

Lee Jordan opened the box and shared Bibi's multi-flavor beans with Albert. "To be honest, I doubt Lockhart is a qualified Defense Against the Dark Arts professor."

"I have never met Gilderoy Lockhart in person, and I don't know him well, so I can't make any arbitrary comments."

"You should go shopping in Diagon Alley with us." Lee Jordan regretted this. "That day, Mr. Weasley and Malfoy had a fight in the bookstore."

"Fighting, what's the reason?"

"I don't know." Lee Jordan shook his head and said, "The relationship between them has always been very bad, probably for some reason. I heard from my dad that Mr. Weasley had raided several ancient wizarding families. .”

"Oh." Albert responded casually.

Having said that, this matter has something to do with him. Mr. Weasley's rights were delegated to him by Bud's group.

"Actually, we will know whether Lockhart is a qualified Defense Against the Dark Arts professor after we take his class." Albert smiled and changed the subject, "However, his books are indeed very good. , if you like reading books, it’s not a bad idea to buy a few of them.”

While the two were talking, time passed little by little. The people outside the carriage changed one after another. I really don’t know where so many curious babies came from.

Lee Jordan was happy to be Albert's shield. This guy even treated the people outside to eat with Bibi's multi-flavor beans. He laughed and boasted that he could sell Albert's photos if they wanted to, and he didn't forget to give Wizard Card Club advertises.

Sure enough, it successfully aroused the curiosity and attention of many girls.

However, what puzzled the two of them was that Fred and George never showed up.

"They are almost late." Albert glanced at his pocket watch, "It's already 10:50."

"What should I do if I don't get on the train on time?" Lee Jordan kept staring at the platform outside the window, looking for the Weasley family.

"It shouldn't be a big problem if you don't board. You'll probably have to go directly to Hogsmeade. Going to Hogwarts will just be more troublesome." Albert thought for a while and said. "Don't you think that you don't have to go to school if you don't board the train?"

Judging from the expression on Lee Jordan's face, that's probably what he thought.

"Don't be stupid. Taking the train to go to school is just a regulation of the Ministry of Magic. If you encounter special circumstances, there will naturally be other ways to deal with it." Albert looked like he was really defeated by you.

"They're coming."

Li Jordan raised his hand and pointed at a few hurried figures outside the window, and said to Albert: "It's really annoying. I don't understand why they like to follow the designated time to the station."

"Don't worry, there's still time. Here's this for you. I don't really like the taste."

Albert secretly thrust a red Bibi's multi-flavor bean into Lee Jordan's hand.

"Thanks."

Lee Jordan muttered, and after he ate it, a pungent taste of chili pepper spread in his mouth, almost making him spit it out.

"Red pepper flavor, you really have bad intentions." Lee Jordan threw the Bibi's multi-flavor beans out of the car window.

"Don't be angry, I'll treat you to this."

Albert took out a bottle of Coca-Cola from his suitcase and handed it to Lee Jordan, and asked with a smile, "Have you ever drank Muggle drinks?"

"Coca-Cola?" Lee Jordan glanced at Albert suspiciously, opened the bottle, took a sip, blinked, and commented, "It tastes a bit weird. I really don't know why Muggles like this kind of thing."

"You're just not used to drinking it. If you drink it a few more times, you'll like it." Albert explained with a smile: "Coke can be popular all over the world and make more than one billion people like it. Coke naturally has its charm."

While they were talking, someone knocked on the carriage door again, and Fred and George walked in, followed by their sister Ginny.

"We have to take Ginny to find Ron first." Fred stuffed their luggage into the carriage and said to Albert and Lee Jordan.

At this time, the train suddenly shook and began to move forward.

"You almost missed the train." Li Jordan took another sip of Coke. It was undeniable that he felt pretty good now that he was used to drinking it.

"See you later." After saying that, George closed the door of the compartment.

When Fred and George came back, their brows frowned slightly.

"What's wrong?"

"We didn't find Harry or Ron," said Fred.

"What about your sister?" Albert asked.

"With Hermione Granger," George said.

"This year's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is Lockhart." Lee Jordan suddenly said, "Many people seem to admire him. I don't know what kind of person he is."

Fred and George had just sat down to chat about Lockhart when they saw Hermione and Percy appearing outside the carriage.

"What's wrong?" They all noticed that Percy's expression was particularly gloomy.

"Harry and Ron are missing!" Hermione said, "I thought they were in another carriage just now, but after looking around, I couldn't find them."

"Maybe I didn't have time to get on the train!" Albert said calmly.

"Wow!"

Fred and George both looked at Albert.

"What's wrong?" Percy said, startled by their fuss.

"I think Albert was probably right," Fred said.

"Not on the train?" Percy frowned.

"Don't worry." Albert comforted casually: "If Mr. Weasley turns around and finds that the two of them have not caught up with the train, he will send them directly to Hogsmeade and then go to school from there, which is far better than what we can do. The train is much faster.”

"How could they miss the train?" Hermione simply couldn't understand.

"Maybe, something unexpected happened." Albert said without thinking.

"What accident?" Hermione asked warily, remembering Albert's warning.

"How would I know."

After the two left, Albert suddenly thought of something, looked at the three of them and asked, "What would you do if you found that you couldn't catch the train?"

"How to do it?"

The three of them were stunned for a moment and thought about it for a moment.

"No need to do anything." Lee Jordan spoke first. "After all, parents send their children to school just in case something like this happens."

"What if you find that your family is no longer around?" Albert continued, "Or, what if your family is just an ordinary person?"

"Find someone for help!" Fred said without thinking.

"Yes, look for the guard on the platform." George added.

At this time, the three of them looked at Albert.

"Look for the station guard. If there is no other way, ask the owl to send a letter to Professor McGonagall. The school will definitely send someone to pick him up." Albert noticed the gazes of the three people and said, "What do you think they will do."

"Ron is an idiot!"

Fred and George said in unison: "However, it is probably the situation that Lee Jordan said."

Albert thought about it carefully and felt that the thoughts in their heads were very strange. It was suspected that they were deliberately seeking excitement and attracting attention, so they drove to school. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with them.

After all, who in their right mind would do that?

It turned out that it wasn't that other people had a problem with their thinking and couldn't understand why Harry Potter and Ron Weasley were driving to school, but that there was a problem with the two of them, or that they were ready to commit suicide.

If Albert was just an ordinary wizard, he would probably have the same idea as everyone else!

"What if Harry and Ron missed the train on purpose?" Lee Jordan proposed a hypothesis.

"You mean..." Fred and George immediately came back to their senses, looked at each other, and said in unison, "They don't want to go to school in a Ford car."
