Chapter 157 Dobby the Elf’s Warning

Bai Bai Le Kai Shui
Forced to have nothing to say, Lockhart could no longer maintain his composure, and he reached for his wand in a panic.
But before he could touch it, he was hit by a red light. Not only did Lockhart fail to grasp the wand, his entire palm even swelled.
"Ow—"
He let out a pitiful scream, which was so harsh that Tver frowned.
"Don't be so embarrassed, there's going to be class soon."
Malvolio pouted, waved his wand again, and relieved Lockhart's increasingly swollen palm.
However, this also made Lockhart think he had found a life-saving straw. Before his hand could recover, he turned his attention to Dumbledore and Tweel for help.
"Principal Dumbledore, help me, I am your student!"
"I assure you that the Ministry of Magic will treat you fairly and fairly," Dumbledore said with a sigh.
Seeing Lockhart's appearance, he had realized that Lockhart had really committed an unforgivable crime.
Dumbledore, who was not interested in watching anymore, pushed away the big man standing at the door.
The three of them just nodded to Harry and strode away in silence.
Lockhart had no choice but to ask Tweel for help.
"Tver, help me, I've helped you so much, you can't watch me being taken away, and I still have to help you get the test papers!"
Tver laughed easily.
"I'm sorry, you have finished all the test papers for this school year. I don't need you anymore."
"..." For the first time, Lockhart hated his diligence so much.
However, Malvolio didn't have the patience to struggle with him any longer, so he simply cast a stunning spell on him and let his men drag him out.
He didn't have much communication with Tver. He glared at the three Harrys standing outside the door fiercely and strode away.
Only Tver was left in the office.
He thoughtfully packed everything here into a box, but the photos on the wall were a bit uncooperative.
They shouted there that they were innocent, and even threatened to expose what happened here.
There is no doubt that Lockhart has done a lot of work in the international wizarding community, especially photos. Some people may not know who this is, but they must have seen Lockhart in the photos.
But it doesn't matter, Malvolio will not do anything that he is not sure of. Since he has come to arrest people, it means that he has sufficient evidence and perfect public opinion methods.
Such a great achievement would probably earn him the Order of Merlin.
Voldemort received the medal, and he felt that the world was getting weirder and weirder.
Tver walked out of the office amused.
"What are you doing here?"
As soon as he came out, he saw three trembling little ones.
"I...I...what are we going to do?" Ron quickly asked Hermione for help.
Hermione glanced at him angrily, took a deep breath, and said, "We are here to apologize to you."
"If it weren't for you, Harry would not have left the Chamber of Secrets safely, but we suspected you before. We are really sorry."
She bit her lip, guilt written all over her face.
It is really inappropriate to doubt such a good professor!
"Remember what I said last year? Don't judge a person easily." Tver solemnly reminded them.
He didn't want to take the path of a scapegoat. It was better to leave this kind of character to Snape.
The three men immediately lowered their heads, feeling too guilty to speak.
"Okay, come back to my office and talk about it. Why do you suddenly doubt me?" Tver's smile relaxed the atmosphere.
"I remember I didn't do too many annoying things, right?"
The heartless Harry and Ron immediately raised their heads excitedly and chattered about their suspicions about Tver.
"Of course not, you're not Snape."
"The main thing is that the things the professor studies are too scary. It's hard not to be suspicious when studying Neville, Hermione, etc."
While opening the door, Tweel replied amusingly: "That's just normal academic research. If you have been exposed to Muggle science, you will know that it is nothing."
Of course, for the wizarding world, the study of the soul and the human body is still a taboo topic.
So Tver took the easy way out of this part.
Harry and Ron didn't think about it, and they didn't like to think about it, so they nodded obediently.
Hermione wanted to say something, but thinking about her previous suspicions about the professor, she felt guilty and held her tongue.
"Sit down, can you have pumpkin juice?"
The three little ones nodded obediently and sat on the small sofa.
Because Tver found that more and more people came to the office, and there was no room for one chair. It was too rude to transform into a chair every time.
So I moved out the sofa where he likes to lie when he reads at night.
"I discovered how you all like to drink pumpkin juice. The tea leaves I prepared have not been touched in two years."
Tver brought a chair and sat across from them, followed by four large glasses of pumpkin juice.
However, some little things seemed to be dissatisfied that they had no pumpkin juice, and made a "bang bang" sound.
Ron's body trembled inexplicably, and he pointed at the cage covered with black cloth and asked, "Professor, what's there?"
Tver looked back.
"Ah, that's the little creature you're familiar with, and will become even more familiar with."
"So we'll see them in class?" Ron craned his neck in surprise, as if he could see through the black cloth.
"That's right," Tver nodded, "but I'm more curious, do you think I'm suspicious just because of what I've researched?"
Although he did have an ulterior motive, no matter what he thought, these little wizards would not be able to see through it.
Or, in what ways did he reveal his flaws?
Thinking of this, Tver's face couldn't help but become serious.
But in the eyes of the three Harrys, they thought the professor was expressing dissatisfaction with them, and they retracted the hand that connected the cup.
"Actually, it's mainly because of Dobby."
Harry thought that since the professor had been wronged, he could naturally tell him about Dobby.
"On the night Colin was attacked, before you entered the school hospital, Dobby had been to the school hospital."
Tweel knew that this was indeed the case in the plot. He nodded and motioned for Harry to continue.
Encouraged, Harry became more confident in speaking.
"Dobby didn't tell me that he tried every means to get me out of school just to protect me."
"He also told me that you had a great chat with Malfoy's father during the summer vacation, and he told me to stay away from you."
"Of course, it turned out that Dobby was wrong." Harry quickly added the last sentence.
Only then did Tver remember this elf.
It turns out that he made the same mistake as Voldemort - he ignored the elf.
House elves are naturally stronger than other elves, but when compared to wizards, the gap in their strength appears.
In general, they are a group of small creatures with a very high lower limit of strength but a very low upper limit. Their magic system is different from that of wizards.
But because the magic system is different from that of wizards, some ordinary restrictions have no effect on elves.
So they often have unexpected effects.
It seems that the improvement of strength and the comfortable life have made him feel arrogant.
Tver silently increased his attention to elves and other creatures in his heart.
But before he could touch it, he was hit by a red light. Not only did Lockhart fail to grasp the wand, his entire palm even swelled.
"Ow—"
