Chapter 1 Take the blame for you, take the money and I'll go

"Oh, hell, what's this!" Silver slammed the desk with his fist.

I saw a book list on the desk, which read:

Second-grade students need to read: "Standard Spell, Level 2", "Break with the Woman" by Miranda Goshak, "Walking with the Ghost", "Walking with the Ghouls", "Vacation with the Mother Yasha", "Walking with the Trolls", "Walking with the Vampire", "Walking with the Vampire", "Walking with the Werewolf" by Gidero Lohat, "A Year With the Tibetan Snowman" by Gidero Lohat.

"This damn Gidro Lohart actually asked us to order six books he wrote at once. Even the monsters knew that Gidro Lohart's books were all luxury hardcover versions, and each book required five Gallons! This was obviously a robbery!" Silver was a little furious, "Oh, by the way, I remember that according to the plot of the original book, almost all the little witches in Hogwarts would be obsessed with this liar for a while. This is not OK, I have to cause him some trouble."

"Ranod, Ranod!" Silver snapped his fingers and shouted.

"Young man, do you have any instructions?" - The most loyal servant of the Silver family, the house elf, Ranod, is on call as usual.

"Ranod, given your loyalty, I have a very important task to you. Are you willing to accept it?"

"I really want to, boy, this is my supreme glory." When Ranod heard that there was something to do, it was still a particularly important task, and immediately raised his little chest, "Even if Ranod died, he would complete the task."

"No need, Ranod, I will not let the loyal servants of the Silver family die." Silver comforted the house elves who were too emotional. "Ranod, please follow this book list and help me get such a set of books at Lihen Bookstore. Then you summon all the house elves in Shilong Castle. Then they must copy more than a thousand copies of Gidro Lohart's books. Of course, the more, the better. You don't have to copy these books. You can carefully investigate Gidro Lohart's background and make a written report for me-" Silver paused, "Take the Silver family's family's emblem, and if you encounter a blind eye hindering you, use the power of the family to clear all obstacles!"

Now, Ranod could simply describe him as gratitude. "Young Master." Ranod was almost choked and couldn't speak. Finally, the house elf saluted Silver and moved with a "bang".

"Why do I feel like I'm getting closer to the Head of State?" Silver touched his chin, which did not have a beard, and eliminated this terrible idea. He began to write letters, surprisingly, he wrote three letters at the same time-

"Dear Hermione/Parvati/Padma, I have something very important to tell you that our new teacher of Dark Magic Defence will be Gidro Lohart, but it is disturbing that I have heard a lot of news that is against him. If the news is true, he will be a shameless villain, a scum among the wizards, so..."

(Let's ignore this young man full of bad water.)

Two days later, in Diagon Alley—

"Jack, it's really unbelievable. I didn't expect Gidro Lohart to be such a shameless liar, a hateful thief. I was a little bit skeptical when I received your letter." Hermione looked at the report in her hand, and the countless magic seals on the report proved the authenticity and authority of this report.

"I really don't understand why Dumbledore invited such a person to Hogwarts. The destination of such a person should undoubtedly be Azkaban." Parvati also seemed very sad and angry.

"I think Professor Dumbledore has his own difficulties - you should know the curse of Hogwarts. No teacher with Dark Magic Defence in Hogwarts for a year, they always have all kinds of accidents, such as last year's Kilo." Silver shrugged, "I think in this case, it will be difficult for Dumbledore to find a teacher with the ability and courage to come to Hogwarts to teach Dark Magic Defence. Gidro Lohart, who signed up for promotion of his own books, became Dumbledore's only choice."

"Then do we still want to buy this fraudster's book? This fraudster's book is not cheap, each copy costs five gallons, which is a considerable number for the poor wizard family," said Padma.

"Don't worry, I've been ready for a long time. You guys see this." Silver took out a simple and unpretentious book from his arms.

"Walking with the Ghouls? Where did this come from? I remember that Gidro Lohart's book does not have a simple version." Parvati looked back and forth curiously.

"This is what I produced, no, it's the pirated book I bought from the Overturn Alley, one Galone, which is very cheap." Silver was very proud and almost revealed the stuffing. "I bought it for you, so you don't have to buy that annoying guy's books anymore."

"But we have to buy some other things, and there are two books to buy, let's go." Silver urged the three girls who were slow to go.

An hour later, they walked towards Lihen Bookstore, and there were far more than a few people going to the bookstore. They were surprised to find that there were a large group of people outside the store, all wanting to go in. A big banner was drawn upstairs: Gidro Lohart signed and sold his autobiography "Me Who Can Magic" from 12:30 to 4:30 pm today.

"This shameless liar, I really want to expose him directly." Hermione said unwillingly.

"Then I'm afraid Professor Dumbledore will find the same stupid and bold again." Silver said in a funny voice, and the girls all laughed.

Most of the crowd seemed to be middle-aged witches. A tired-faced witch stood at the door and said, "Ladies, be quiet... don't crowd... Be careful of the books..."

"Friends of women, Gidro Lohat." Silver muttered.

Sisters Silver, Hermione and Pettier got in through the cracks. The winding line lined up from the door to the back of the bookstore, where Gidrolohart signed the book.

"Look, isn't that Harry and Weasley's family? It seems they are going to buy Gidro Lohart's book." Parvati pointed to the center of the crowd."

"Of course, Gidro Lohart will not let Harry go. They can be on the headlines of the Prophet Daily together. What a great opportunity to hype. Oh, look, Gidro Lohart seems to have seen Harry." Silver whispered.

Lockhart was wearing a robe like a forget-me-not, which matched his blue eyes. The spire wizard hat was playfully tilted on his curly hair. He saw Harry and jumped up in surprise. Lockhart rushed through the crowd and grabbed Harry's arm, dragging him in front, and the audience burst into applause. The photographer pressed the shutter frantically, and bursts of smoke drifted in the air.

"Ladies and gentlemen," Lockhart said loudly, waving his hand to quiet everyone, "What an unusual moment! I want to announce a small thing on this wonderful occasion, which I have not said for a while."

"When the young Harry walked into Lihen's bookstore today, he just wanted to buy my autobiography - I was willing to give it to him for free on the spot -" Another applause, "But he didn't know," Lockhart continued, and shook Harry, causing his glasses to slide onto his nose. "He will soon get something more valuable than my work "The Magical Me". In fact, he and his classmates will get a real, magical me. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I announce with great pleasure and pride that this September, I will become a teacher of the Dark Magical Defense Arts at Hogwarts School!"

"This is really a misfortune of Hogwarts." Silver whispered. The three girls nodded, looking worried.

"Okay, it's time for us to leave. There will probably be a riot here later, so don't be affected." Silver said to the girls with concern.

"What riot?" Padma said curiously.

Silver pointed to Arthur Weasley and Lucius Malfoy who were confronting each other at the door of the bookstore. "These two people will definitely fight later. The relationship between the Weasleys and the Malfoy has never been very good. We have to hurry up and leave..."

———————————————————————————————————

"Master, all the 1,500 sets of Lockhart's books we made have been sold out." Ranold reported to Silver. "I found Montongus and asked him to sell them in the Overturn Alley, but Montongus was very dishonest. He violated the rules and sold these books at a price of two Gallons. Later, he deceived me and said that the book could not be sold was dealt with at a discount. Ranold taught this bastard a lesson and took all the money back."

Ranod took out a heavy bag.

"I'll calculate how much money, a set of six books, a book of two gallons, a total of one thousand five hundred sets, hahahahahaha..."

And at this time—

"What? The sales of those six books are very poor? How is this possible? This is a book that all Hogwarts students have to buy, how can they sell poorly?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lockhart, someone is in the Overturn Alley under your banner, claiming that Mr. Lockhart, you have to take care of the poor wizard family and specially released a simple version of the series. Even if you deny it now, it's useless, and it will have a very adverse impact on your reputation..."

"Who is that person?" After a moment of embarrassing silence, the voice became gritted.
