Chapter 118 Confession

"In that case, Professor Lockhart, can you prove it?" Mike continued to stimulate Lockhart, "I heard that the Patronus Charm is an extremely complex and difficult spell. In ancient times, could it release a complete entity? Whether the Patronus can become a high-level official of the Wizengamot and the Ministry of Magic is still one of the important bases. I think as a well-known and respected white wizard, you should also be able to release the Patronus Charm, right?"

Lockhart hesitated for a long time and was speechless. The expression on his face became more and more ugly, and he was about to explode.

Seeing Lockhart's expression, Mike knew that the heat was almost over, so he decided to try harder.

"Professor Lockhart, you are also the recipient of the Order of Merlin, Third Class. Originally, I thought you should be a powerful wizard." Mike said, "But I have also heard that the reason why you received this medal is because Have you improved the Forgetting Curse so that the side effects of the Forgetting Curse are greatly reduced?"

Lockhart's face turned pale when he heard this, and he was stunned. He didn't even notice that the juice in his hand accidentally dripped onto his body.

"You know it all! Did they tell you?" Lockhart said blankly.

Mike didn't respond, but gave Lockhart an inscrutable smile.

"How could they do this? They swore to me! They swore to keep my secret!" Lockhart screamed hysterically.

At this time, Lockhart's emotions were out of control. When Mike saw this, he pulled Franklin aside and quickly retreated. With a flick of the wand in his hand, the armor protection spell covered the two of them.

"Calm down, professor!" Mike yelled.

At this time, Lockhart had already picked up his wand, but looking at Mike's vigilant look, and then seeing the house elves around him all gathering nervously, he silently put away his wand again. .

"Say! What do you want! As long as you can keep the secret, I will satisfy you!" Lockhart gritted his teeth and said, "You damn vampires! Everyone wants to exploit me! Dumbledore did it, and now you do too. Same!"

Seeing his reaction, Mike knew clearly that Lockhart, the unlucky guy, had indeed been caught by Dumbledore and tricked him into Hogwarts. Seeing that Lockhart's reaction didn't seem to be fake, Mike also Lockhart was ruled out as a suspect. So he put on a bright smile again and said:

"Professor, you misunderstood, I was not threatening you..."

"Huh? Then you are deliberately using this matter to humiliate me?" Lockhart interrupted before Mike could finish. He had tolerated Mike for a long time today.

Mike's smile froze on his face. He didn't expect that Lockhart, a person with a handsome temperament, could choke people.

"Then just think that I'm threatening you!" Mike's face darkened, "I can accept your interview, and you can also write the novel, but I must be the protagonist. And, you must write what you wrote Show me the manuscript and if there is anything that dissatisfies me, you know the consequences."

I don’t know if it was because he was so embarrassed that he didn’t care anymore. Lockhart’s attitude became obviously arrogant. He leaned back and crossed his legs. Lockhart said: “I can promise you, but we must Sign the contract to prevent you from threatening me with this matter again! Use Gringotts' special contract magic!"

Mike has also heard of this kind of contract, which is often used in business contracts in the wizarding world and is extremely effective. Those who violate the contract will not only suffer powerful magical backlash, but will also be blacklisted by Gringotts as dishonest persons. They will definitely find it difficult to move forward in the magical world in the future. But from this, Mike also had a doubt in his heart and asked:

"Wait a minute, if you have that kind of thing, why are you worried about 'them' leaking it?"

Lockhart's face turned red again when he heard this, and he yelled angrily: "Are you pretending to be stupid again, you damn kid? Contracts are of no use to wizards of Dumbledore's level! Okay, don't be nagging anymore, Come and sign a contract. And that black boy also wants to sign a contract with me to make sure he doesn’t spread what happened today!”

After confirming that Lockhart was not the heir, Mike had lost interest in him and just wanted to leave this place quickly, so he decisively agreed.

Lockhart couldn't wait to take out two pieces of parchment from the bag of traceless stretching spells he carried with him. He wrote the contract with his gorgeous peacock quill pen and handed one to Mike and threw the other in front of Franklin. .

Mike looked at the contract. It wrote in great detail that Lockhart was a liar and a memory thief. It also included Mike's obligation to keep this secret for Lockhart and the rights he should enjoy.

After checking the entire parchment in detail, he found that there were no other patterns or other hidden clauses that might be words from other races, and then Mike signed his name at the signature place.

Compared with Mike, the contract given to Franklin was much simpler. Franklin had signed it early. He wanted to secretly take a look at the contents of the contract in Mike's hand, but Lockhart slapped him and stopped him.

Franklin retreated to avoid the slap and turned back to glare at Lockhart. He was very dissatisfied with Lockhart's current attitude. Unexpectedly, Lockhart also became hardened and glared back.

The two stared at each other for a long time, until after Mike signed his name, Lockhart snatched it away, snorted coldly, and left the kitchen.

Franklin looked at Lockhart's retreating figure and said angrily to Mike who was packing his things to leave: "He is too arrogant. Although I don't know what leverage you have on him, I don't think you should Just let him go!"

Mike looked at Franklin in surprise, and when he saw his face full of indignation and childishness, he realized that he was still a 12-year-old child, so he said to him seriously:

"Franklin, we are not little gangsters selling leaves on the street. If someone shows disrespect to us, we will go up and chop him to death. Have a better attitude. People have suffered a lot due to our coercion, so why don't we allow them to be more arrogant?"

After speaking, Mike took the lead and left his seat, and Franklin quickly followed after seeing this.

At this time, there were still many delicacies on the table that had not been touched. This made the house elves very uneasy, thinking that they had not done a good job and that the guests were not enjoying themselves. One of the most extreme house elves was probably from I learned it from Tiaopanji, and I have already put a knife on my belly and prepared to commit suicide by caesarean section.

For this reason, Mike had to stop to appease these house elves, explaining to them that it was because they were not hungry and not because the food was not delicious, and promised that they would come again next time before the two of them were able to get away.

Rogers originally asked Mike to go to Quidditch training this afternoon, but there were too many disturbing things that happened today, and Mike was no longer in the mood to go to training.

Taking Franklin quickly towards the Ravenclaw Tower, Mike missed his sofa chair very much.
