NOVEL WEB Chapter 286
Chapter 286: Lockhart was brutally arrested.
When you come to Diagon Alley, you can’t help but take Crodia to eat.
However, Crodia’s shopping desire is not very strong, mainly because compared to the bustling Muggle streets, even the bustling Diagon Alley does not have many types of products.
Either some weird materials or the same candy, food, toys.
When you first come to Diagon Alley, these can still attract people’s attention, but after visiting a few times and getting used to the colorful products in the Muggle world, Diagon Alley becomes not worth mentioning.
Think about it, there is only one high-end clothing store and one general-looking ready-made clothing store on one street. What is the point of such a commercial street?
However, Leonard still took Crodia to Tuofan Clothing Store to customize two sets of dresses that were said to be the latest. Anyway, Leonard has a lot of money and doesn’t care about the cost of two sets of dresses.
Leonard and Crodia also passed by Flourish and Blotts Bookstore on the way. Although Lockhart did not become the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts, his book signing was still held as scheduled.
When Leonard passed by for the first time [Diagon Alley is so big, there is no choice but to wander back and forth] and saw no trace of the protagonist group.
This is normal. With Leonard’s troubles, Harry has not become good friends with Ron Weasley, which means that he is probably still staying at home, waiting for his uncle to be merciful and take him with him. He comes to Diagon Alley.
And now that Tom Riddle’s diary is in his hands, the house elf Dobby should not betray the Malfoy family to torture the savior.
After his son died, there was no need for Lucius Malfoy to come to Flourish and Blotts Bookstore. Looking at it this way, Leonard really changed a lot of the plot.
But no matter how many plot changes he made, a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor should not suddenly appear. Leonard thought about it and took Crodia around again and bought a lot of delicious food.
Then when he passed by Flourish and Blotts Bookstore for the second time, Leonard saw a group of Aurors breaking into Flourish and Blotts Bookstore with a strong attitude and captured Lockhart who was signing new books.
However, although the Aurors had a tough attitude, Lockhart’s followers were not easy to mess with. They blocked the door and noisily did not allow the Aurors to leave.
”What are you doing? You are absolutely not allowed to capture Mr. Lockhart.”
”Dear Mr. Lockhart, don’t worry, we will definitely save you.”
”How can you be so rude? Gilderoy is everyone’s treasure!”
A group of women with different clothes and different status at first glance blocked the door, making it impossible for the Aurors who captured Lockhart to leave.
”Please step aside and not disturb the Aurors handling the case!”
The leader of the Auror team shouted loudly. However, his words had no effect and even caused a backlash.
”What happened to the Aurors? Can an Auror take someone away so arrogantly?”
A lady who was dressed luxuriously, and it looked like high-end clothing produced by Tuofan clothing store, pointed at the Auror’s nose with her carrot-like finger.
”Let me tell you, no one can take away my Gilderoy today. Today is his important book signing!”
The lady looked like she had an extraordinary family. She pointed at the nose of the Auror squad leader and made the other party speechless.
I didn’t expect to see such a good show. Leonard and the surrounding people who didn’t know the truth. They gathered around the entrance of Flourish and Blotts Bookstore to
watch the play.
Gilderoy Lockhart would be arrested. This was something Leonard didn’t expect. He thought he was a well-thought-out liar, but he didn’t expect that Gilderoy Lockhart would be arrested because he didn’t go to Hall of Fame. Gwartz was arrested when he was the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. Could it be Dumbledore? I thought this guy was still valuable as a sacrifice, but he sold Lockhart because he found a suitable candidate. Lost?
It’s possible, but not necessarily.
Leonard remembered that the news of a group of pure-blood wizards disappearing has been everywhere in the hustle and bustle recently. This has been the headline news in major newspapers for more than half a year.
Not only Newspapers, even the Quibbler, published news in this regard. The content was [Alien invasion, whether the disappearance of pure-blood wizards was caused by alien creatures].
This magazine has always been quite outrageous.
Because the Ministry of Magic has never provided any information. As relevant information about this case came out, all kinds of speculations and rumors spread on the street, causing quite a bit of confusion.
”Maybe the Ministry of Magic can’t hold on anymore, so it plans to cover it up with big news? or···Simply a scapegoat?”
Leonard looked at the panicked Lockhart with amusement.
It’s not impossible. Maybe the Ministry of Magic already knew Lockhart’s true nature, and the reason why they didn’t arrest him was to have the opportunity to be a scapegoat or a scapegoat in the future. Big news that suppresses other bad news?
This speculation sounds a bit conspiracy theory, but Leonard thinks it is very reliable.
After all, when Sirius Black escaped from prison, these guys suddenly passed Wolfsbane on Damocles The honorary reward for the potion allowed him to receive the Order of Merlin.
This was too coincidental. Leonard would not believe it if there was no mention in it.
The farce at Flourish and Blotts Bookstore continued, and the noble lady was full of firepower. As he spoke, he sprayed spit foam all over the face of the Auror team.
Lockhart, who was arrested by the Aurors, was moved, and his eyes were full of pride.
Although he didn’t know that these Aurors suddenly caught him. What, but having such a die-hard book fan to protect him made Lockhart very proud. At this moment, a person suddenly appeared outside Flourish and Blotts Bookstore. She had short gray hair, was wearing an Auror uniform, and her face seemed to be… covered with frost
”Aurors are on duty and anyone who attempts to obstruct official duties will be arrested for assault!”
A woman is resolute and will shock the whole audience as soon as she appears on the stage.
”Ms. Bones!”
After seeing this, the captain of the Auror team breathed a sigh of relief.
This is the director of the Magical Enforcement Department, Amelia Bones.
The Auror Command where the Aurors are located is a department under the Magical Enforcement Department. It can be said that this woman is the immediate boss of all Aurors.
But she just caught a fraudster······You can’t offend this person, right?
”Gilderoy Lockhart abused the Oblivion Curse many times, causing many wizards to lose their memory and ability to survive, and stole the research results of other wizards.”
Amelia Bones glanced at the women surrounding the Aurors with stern eyes, and her sharp eyes were like knives to drive back these unreasonable women.
”He’s about to go to the Wizengamot Inquisition.···Do you want to come with him?”
The fierce momentum made everyone present couldn’t help but tremble. She shocked the whole audience like a queen.
