Hogwarts, Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom.
Ring ring ring!
As a bell rang, the fourth grade Defense Against the Dark Arts class officially ended in the afternoon.
A large number of little wizards walked briskly, with smiles on their faces, excitedly walking out of the classroom door and towards the lounges of their respective colleges.
There were only a few students staying in the classroom. There were only two or three young wizards gathered around the podium, asking Professor Lockhart to answer some of their doubts.
"Professor, why doesn't wearing protective earmuffs work when you encounter a bad bird?"
"The reason is simple. His high-pitched screams can drive people crazy and are extremely penetrating. Ordinary protective earmuffs cannot resist them at all. The best way is to use a silencing spell to deal with them."
"Professor, how should we respond when we encounter a hive?"
"With your current level, you cannot effectively deal with this at all. The simplest way is to cast a breath-concealing spell to hide the breath, and then jump into the water. This is the best way to deal with it."
"Professor, please"
"you should"
"."
As Lockhart patiently answered every question of the little wizards, the little wizards soon left with satisfaction.
Looking at the empty classroom, Lockhart felt very comfortable inside.
I haven’t had such fun lecturing for a long time.
The last class was for first grade wizards. The main purpose was to listen to them introduce themselves, and then encourage them to increase their interest in magic.
There is really no room for him to develop.
This lesson is for the little wizards in the fourth grade. Although it takes a lot of time to do the papers in the first place, I will explain to them every question I asked later.
Let him do whatever he wanted, and it still made Lockhart feel very happy.
He estimated that he had not taught in the classroom for nearly half a year.
It's not that he likes teaching students very much, it's purely a professional habit.
In his previous life, even if he had a research project, he would have at least 4 classes every week.
This state lasted for about six or seven years, allowing him to develop the habit of attending classes regularly.
This time I have not stood on the podium or lectured to the students below for nearly five months. To be honest, I am still a little uncomfortable.
This lecture was a way to vent some of the accumulated discomfort from before.
Naturally, you will feel very comfortable in your heart.
It's like eating a stick of ice cream in the summer, in one word - refreshing.
Then, Lockhart walked out of the classroom and walked towards his office.
He needs to tidy up. He has finished the two major classes today, and he can control the rest of the time freely.
He was going to a place he thought about day and night - the Hogwarts library.
Life should have a sense of ritual.
In his previous life, Lockhart paid great attention to the quality of life.
He likes to adjust his state through small rituals.
For example, before reading a book, close your eyes and meditate for 30 seconds.
Before doing something, it is a habit to print out your plan on a page and place it in the most conspicuous place in front of you.
Always reminded, what should I do next?
This time, enter the Hogwarts library.
He decided that he must take a good wash and even change his clothes into a new set.
This is his devotion to knowledge.
At the same time, it is also a tribute to the Hogwarts library.
The Hogwarts Library's status in the wizarding world is like the British Library's status in the world in its previous life.
World famous! ! !
World number one! ! !
Hogwarts is a sacred place for all wizards. His legacy and rich collection can be called a repository of wizard civilization information.
Since the establishment of Hogwarts more than 1,600 years ago, every principal has continued to enrich the collection of books in the library. There was even a period when the principal at that time even included the collections of pure-blood families.
Go directly to the door and use certain means to copy the other party's collection.
Lockhart had seen these in "Hogwarts: A History of the School".
Of course, he didn't say it directly, it was through hints, but Lockhart also understood.
Otherwise, why does the book mention:
"After some cordial and friendly exchanges, the Holy Pureblood Family agreed with Hogwarts' philosophy of cultivating better wizards and voluntarily allowed Principal Barron to make copies for his collection at home."
Tsk tsk tsk, look, this is what a Hogwarts principal should do.
Therefore, it is not polite to say that the Hogwarts Library basically collects these precious books born in 1600.
In Lockhart's eyes, it is simply a treasure that is difficult to describe in words.
When he walked into the library with a pious heart, he felt the peaceful atmosphere inside and heard the rustling of pages.
There is peace in my heart.
Especially seeing a large number of books emitting magic fluctuations neatly placed inside a large number of bookshelves.
The fire in his eyes was replaced by reason.
because
Reading a book is not just about finding a book and reading it.
When entering the library, you cannot just find a seat and pick up a book to read.
This is not called reading, it is called spending time.
Everything must pay attention to methods and everything must have a clear purpose.
At this moment, Lockhart looked at Ms. Pince, the Hogwarts librarian, who was sitting at the table not far away.
Walk directly.
Although Lockhart deliberately controlled his footsteps, he did not want his footsteps to affect others, nor did he want to tarnish this sacred library in his mind.
But it still made Ms. Pince, who had sensitive hearing, look up.
"Professor Lockhart, what book are you looking for?"
Wearing a dark green wizard robe, Ms. Pingsi, who is tall and pretty, asked curiously.
She was quite curious about the newly appointed Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.
The other party came to the library on the first day of class, which is enough to show the other party's love for knowledge.
This made Ms. Pince, who loved reading, have a good impression of Lockhart.
Not to mention the other person's handsome face.
Especially since the other party came from Ravenclaw, which symbolizes wisdom.
She was also a witch from Ravenclaw, but she later worked as a librarian at Hogwarts.
"Ms. Pince, you must have been working as a library administrator for many years."
"I would like to ask if there is any in the library, or if you have compiled a list of books in the library. I would like to have a general idea of the distribution of books in the entire library."
Ms. Pince was stunned for a moment when she heard Lockhart's request.
For the first time, she heard that someone wanted to read the list of books.
The average professor would either ask her directly where the books are, or ask her if she has any books to recommend, or at most ask her to make a list of recommendations.
No one ever directly asked for an inventory of the entire library's books.
It’s not that this is impossible to have, it just doesn’t make much sense.
After all, there are too many books.
If you want a book, just ask her directly. She is very familiar with the placement of every book in the library.
Seeing Ms. Pince stunned on the spot, Lockhart repeated his request again, with a hint of certainty in his tone.
"Ms. Pince, do you have an inventory of all the books in the library?"
Hearing Lockhart ask another question, Ms. Pince came back to her senses, looked at Lockhart in front of her, and asked uncontrollably:
"Professor Lockhart, do you know how many books there are in the Hogwarts library?"
In the new book issue, it is extremely important to follow the reading data. Readers who like this book please pin it to the top so that you can see the latest chapters.
