Hogwarts Kryptonian - Chapter 56 Greasy Man

Lu Yunkai pulled Daphne and Astoria and followed Ron and the three of them. After squeezing in the crowd for a while, he jumped to the front of the team and sneaked into the bookstore.

The already small Flourish and Blotts Bookstore was now overcrowded, and the six boys and girls were a little confused in the crowd.

“Ron, where is your mother?” Hermione was a little irritable because of the crowd.

“In the front! She came to line up very early. She is a fan of Girod.” Ron pushed people in the crowd and stood on tiptoes to look ahead.

“Ron!! Here!!”

Suddenly a very thin female voice sounded.

Lu Yunkai and others followed the sound and looked over. A little girl with the Weasley family’s signature red hair was standing on tiptoes and waving in this direction.

“Ginny!!” Ron also waved his hand, and then led everyone over.

“Why did you run in? Didn’t I buy all the storybooks for you?”

Next to him, a fat but kind-looking middle-aged woman complained about Ron.

“Hermione and Lu Yun also need to buy books. The queue outside is too long, so I will bring them in.” Ron nodded to the woman.

“Hello, Mrs. Weasley, and… hello! Ginny!” Lu Yun greeted Ron’s mother and the little girl next to him with a smile.

He still had memories of these two people. Last year, when he and Harry were confused while pushing a trolley at King’s Cross Station, it was this kind woman who taught them how to reach Nine and Four Minutes. Third platform.

And the little girl named Ginny was also with her at that time.

“Hello, brother Lu Yunkai!” Ginny nodded to Lu Yunkai with a smile, “Ron told us a lot about you during the summer vacation.”

“Hello, Lu Yunkai!” Mrs. Weasley responded with a smile, “This is…”

“This is my classmate, Daphne, and her sister Astoria.” Lu Yunkai introduced the two girls he was holding to Mrs. Weasley.

“Hello Mrs. Weasley.” Daphne took her sister and said hello quickly.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion at the front of the queue.

“It’s begun! It’s begun!”

Hermione on the side looked excited.

And Lu Yunkai also obviously felt that Daphne started to hold his hand harder.

He followed everyone’s gaze and looked at the autograph booth at the front of the queue.

A middle-aged man with blond hair appeared.

With a… greasy smile on his face.

Extremely greasy.

Lu Yunkai really couldn’t make himself like him. He even had the urge to punch this man.

However, he noticed that the women around him, from Mrs. Weasley to Hermione, Ginny and Daphne, looked at the man with nymphomaniac expressions…

Especially Daphne’s look suddenly made Lu Yunkai feel strangely uncomfortable.

This man’s public enemy! How handsome is he? Neither gentle enough nor beautiful enough, nor masculine enough.

From the corner of his eyes, Lu Yun opened his eyes and saw Ron, who was also speechless next to him.

The two looked at each other in understanding and shook their heads.

The autograph signing event officially started, and the team moved forward. Today, Gerald Lockhart’s autograph signing standards were not high. As long as you purchase a complete set of his works, you can get his autograph.

This year, in the Hogwarts book list, all Lockhart books are textbooks, and the category is Defense Against the Dark Arts… Naturally, everyone, including Daphne and Hermione, has the opportunity to get a set of Lockhart books. Special autograph.

Lu Yunkai didn’t pay much attention to this matter when he read the owl’s letter before. Now that he thought about it, the person who drafted this book list, the one who succeeded Quirrell as the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts, was probably the same person as Mrs. Weasley. Same, they are all fans of Lockhart, right?

How funny.

Because Mrs. Weasley came very early, they didn’t have to wait long before it was their turn.

Mrs. Weasley handed a large stack of gold Galleons to the staff of the bookstore, and the staff expertly counted four stacks of packed books and placed them in front of Lockhart, who was sitting on the signing table. The man with the greasy smile on his face waved the quill in his hand and signed it. He repeated the same action four times, which was indeed a bit chic.

Then he raised his head and smiled and handed the book to Mrs. Weasley who looked at him with a nympho face.

“Thank you for your support,” Lockhart said.

Even if Lu Yunkai, who was next to him, didn’t like this greasy middle-aged man, he had to admit that his voice did have a very charming magnetism.

“I’m your fan.” Mrs. Weasley said excitedly.

“I am very honored.”

Then a signature smile.

Lu Yunkai felt a little queasy. This smile was probably measured with a protractor and then practiced thousands of times in front of the mirror, right? Too standard.

Mrs. Weasley may have bought enough and got the chance to chat with Lockhart for a few more words, and she acted like a star-struck girl.

She doesn’t feel ashamed, it’s Ron who is ashamed…

Finally, Mrs. Weasley’s part was completed, but she still stood beside her with a look of nostalgia on her face, unwilling to leave for a long time.

However, it was not convenient for the bookstore staff to chase her away, because the next Harry would also be with her.

Likewise, a stack of gold galleons and a stack of books were placed in front of Lockhart, who signed them with a wave of his hand.

Only this time, Lockhart, who looked up to thank him, saw the black-haired boy in front of him…the lightning scar on his forehead.

This legendary scar was unique enough to make the fake-smiling man forget about his smile for a moment.

But he came back to his senses immediately, and then smiled even brighter.

“Oh! Isn’t this the famous Harry Potter!” He stood up with a smile, “I didn’t expect you to be a fan of my books too!”

“I’m not…” Harry looked embarrassed and wanted to explain that he was just here to buy textbooks, but Lockhart stood up and pulled him to his side.

Lockhart didn’t speak, but just glanced to the side. The photographer who had been standing by rushed out with a wink, clicked, and took a photo.

Harry was kept in the dark the entire time, not knowing what was happening.

“Although I would like to communicate more with you about my experience in dealing with dark magic, there are still many fans of my books waiting.” Lockhart smiled and said to Harry, “Looking back when we still get along a lot, I I will personally explain to you all your curiosity about my legend.”

This time, Harry was so confused that he didn’t know how to refute or refuse. He walked down numbly holding a stack of books he had just signed.

Next to her, Hermione, already looking forward to it and excited, had already rushed forward…

It’s just that Hermione obviously didn’t get the same treatment as Mrs. Weasley and Harry. Because she didn’t buy enough, and she wasn’t famous enough. After a few simple routine conversations, it was Daphne’s turn.

Daphne also received the same treatment as Hermione. Although she wanted to take a photo with Lockhart, she was refused.

Everyone who finally bought all the books was about to leave when they saw two blond men, one tall and one short, walking into the bookstore.

Almost everyone was stunned.

Lu Yunkai looked at the two people, feeling a little embarrassed.

“Isn’t this Weasley? There is also the famous Potter! The feeling of being valued and welcomed just now, don’t you feel very happy?”

Apart from Malfoy, Lu Yunkai didn’t know anyone else who was such an old hermaphrodite.

“What does it have to do with you? Are you jealous of Harry?” Hermione interrupted unhappily from the side.

“I’m jealous of him??” Malfoy jumped up as if his tail had been stepped on.

“Draco.” Lucius, who was standing next to him, held down his angry son. “Keep your manners, especially in front of Muggles who don’t know how to be polite.”

“…” Malfoy glanced at Lu Yunkai.

Lu Yunkai nodded slightly towards him, then shook his head.

Malfoy fell silent.

Lucius, on the other hand, looked at Harry, who had been a little confused next to him.

“We finally meet, Harry Potter.” Lucius gently brushed Harry’s bangs with the cane in his hand, revealing the lightning scar on his forehead, “I hope your Scars bring you good luck.”

“…” Harry didn’t know how to answer this question.

“Harry doesn’t rely on luck!” Ginny on the side said angrily to Lucius.

“…Second-hand robes, old books?” Lucius picked up an old magic textbook from Ginny’s bag, glanced at it, and put it back, “Weasley?”

“Children, let’s go.” Mrs. Weasley’s face had long lost the girlish Huaichun she had just looked at Lockhart, and she coldly reminded the group of people following her.

Then he walked out of the bookstore without talking to Lucius.

Harry and Ron followed immediately.

Lu Yunkai slowed down his pace a little, borrowed a position, and looked at Lucius from an angle that no one else could see.

Lu Yunkai nodded lightly.

Lucius showed a smile that Lu Yunkai didn’t quite understand.

After walking out of the crowded bookstore, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

“Have you bought anything else?” Hermione had just been disgusted by Lucius. She was obviously not in a good mood, so her tone was not particularly smooth when she spoke.

“Not yet. What about you?” Daphne answered proactively.

She felt that Lu Yunkai beside her suddenly seemed to be worried. However, the tone of her answer was not very good, because she also noticed that Lu Yunkai was staring at Ginny who was following Mrs. Weasley in a daze.

“We bought them all,” Harry replied.

“I’ll buy them all too.” Hermione also replied, “Then…”

“We’re going to buy other things.” Daphne nodded and glanced at Lu Yunkai, who was stunned there. “Yunkai, do you want to continue shopping with me?”

“Ah?…Ah! Of course!”

“Let’s go!” Daphne pulled Lu Yunkai and left directly outside the bookstore.

“……What’s wrong?”

Lu Yunkai didn’t come back to his senses, but found that Daphne who was pulling him seemed to be surprisingly strong.

He was still thinking about Lucius’s smile just now. Why do you look like you are succeeding in your evil plot?

That feels weird.

He didn’t notice that Daphne next to him had a dark face.

“Brother-in-law! Apologize to my sister quickly!!”

Astoria, who had just said nothing in a crowded place, pulled the corner of Lu Yunkai’s clothes and reminded her softly.

“Ah? Why?”

“Ah! You were so close to that Weasley named Ginny just now. My sister is jealous!”

“…Where can I have it!!”
