Chapter 90 Interview with Lockhart
·
Bai Bai Le Kai Shui
"Tea or pumpkin juice?"
Turville sat down in Dumbledore's seat without hesitation, not caring about Phoenix Fox's dissatisfied look.
Lockhart's attention was drawn to the Phoenix.
"Ah, it's a phoenix, of course, that's obvious." He smiled smugly.
“I once saw a phoenix in Egypt that was in its weakening stage. Fortunately, with my help, I successfully helped it achieve nirvana and be reborn.
For details, please see my book "Breaking with the Female Ghost" in Chapter 3. "
"Even without your help, Phoenix can be reborn by itself."
Tver coldly ordered the tea cup to be filled with tea, flew in front of him, and kept hitting his head.
Lockhart sensed Tweel's dissatisfaction with his tirade and chuckled awkwardly.
"The tea cups in the principal's office are just fun."
After holding the tea cup and taking a sip, the atmosphere here stopped becoming stiff.
Tver didn't know why. In the past, he had enough patience even when facing the least enlightened students.
As a result, he lost interest in talking when facing Lockhart.
"Please introduce yourself first." He said helplessly. The interview always had to go on.
But the next second, he immediately regretted it.
The word "self-introduction" was like a device that triggered Lockhart.
As soon as he finished speaking, he instantly revealed his eight-tooth smile, which was exactly the same as what Tver had seen in the newspaper before, without even a trace of gum showing.
"I, Gilderoy Lockhart, Order of Merlin [-]rd Class, Honorary Member of the Defense League against the Dark Arts, five-time winner of Wizarding Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award - but I don't talk about that, I'm not You can drive away all the female ghosts with your smile!"
"Then what do you rely on?" Tver asked curiously.
Lockhart's smile froze for a second, but he quickly recovered due to his proficient business skills.
"Of course it relies on my powerful magic!"
"Okay," Tver said noncommittally, "then how do you plan to arrange the Defense Against the Dark Arts courses?"
Lockhart was obviously prepared for this, and he coughed twice confidently.
"Teaching students, of course, is to teach them some magical magic, mainly used to deal with some magical creatures, as well as deal with offensive magic, etc."
"For example, I plan to bring some evil creatures into the classroom, let the students see powerful opponents that they have never seen before, and then help them coolly, no, teach them how to deal with them coolly."
"To be honest, I have heard a lot of rumors about Defense Against the Dark Arts. Of course, I have also experienced some. I know that students have not encountered good professors in this course, but please don't worry-"
"As a reminder, I was in charge of this course last school year," Tver said looking at Lockhart indifferently, "and I will continue to teach the students."
"Ah haha, such a coincidence, haha," he laughed dryly for a while, "This is the first time I heard that there is a professor who can teach this course for two years. But in this case, do we need to recruit new professors for this course?"
"Of course, you and I will share the teaching tasks for the students. As for the specific content, it depends on your performance in this interview."
Lockhart curled his lips.
Although being a Durmstrang graduate frightened him a little, Tver looked young and in his eyes was a recent graduate.
So he was dissatisfied with Tver's leading role in the course.
"I'm not questioning your strength, I just hope you can respect me, the recipient of the Order of Merlin."
"Halping about honor all day long will only make people think that you are nothing but these."
……
After Dumbledore came back, he was surprised to find that Turville was the only one in the principal's office, staring into the eyes of Phoenix Fawkes.
"Where's Lockhart?"
"He said he had to prepare for a book signing, so he went back first." After thinking about it, Tver still saved some face for Lockhart who fled.
He teased Fox helplessly.
However, Fenghuang turned his head away in shame.
"You have to get along with it more," Dumbledore touched Phoenix's head, "So, you've finished interviewing Lockhart?"
Tver recalled the 10 minutes of torture.
What follows is basically Lockhart bragging about his various deeds. When faced with questions, he will only answer vaguely, and then lead to the content he wrote in the book.
If memory were to be tested, Mr. Lockhart was certainly not bad, for he was able to remember every detail of every book he ever wrote.
But the problem is that Tver now very doubts whether he can do a good job even in distributing test papers and explaining exercises.
But after all, he is a living person with subjective initiative, which is better than shouldering seven grades by himself.
"If you think of that as an interview, that's the end of it."
"What's your opinion?" Dumbledore asked curiously.
"To a certain extent, it's not as useful as my dummy." The corner of Tver's mouth twitched.
"Oh," Dumbledore became interested, "How close can it be to your dummy?"
He knew about Tver's dummy, especially when Snape complained to him about the power of the dummy when he stole the Philosopher's Stone.
Tweel thought for a moment about the dummy who could only repeat the book, and Lockhart who was also repeating the contents of the book, and said uncertainly: "Probably less than half?"
"That's not bad!" Dumbledore said happily, "Lockhart is the only Defense Against the Dark Arts professor who took the initiative to apply this year."
"Perhaps, he may regard this career as part of an adventurous career and write a book or something after a year."
"That's okay. I hope I can have a good reputation in his new book and save my precarious reputation." Dumbledore poured himself a cup of tea leisurely.
"But I guess you don't want to leave a gossipy image in his book, right?"
It's hard for him to write me in, Tver thought.
"What do you mean? I'm nosy?"
"It's Snape. You know him very well, right? He often complains to me that you are teasing him about his past."
joking?
Tweel couldn't believe that Snape would use such friendly words, it was probably a threat.
But why did Snape's actions look so like a child being bullied and then looking for his parents?
Tver couldn't help but laugh.
"My mother did talk a lot about their grievances. I believe that not only my mother, but also some classmates of that generation know these things more or less."
"But at least in this generation, no students know this, so it's best not to spread Snape's things in school." Dumbledore reminded.
"Of course," Tver said confidently, "If nothing happens, then I will go back?"
There was also a Dark Lord at home, and he couldn't guarantee that Malvolio would stay well.
Dumbledore stopped Turville who was about to walk out of the door. .
"I have already arranged your request. Do you want to come over and take a look at it then?"
He thought for a moment and said, "No, I'd better save my expectations until the end of the summer vacation."
Turville sat down in Dumbledore's seat without hesitation, not caring about Phoenix Fox's dissatisfied look.
Lockhart's attention was drawn to the Phoenix.
