Lockhart took Pandora to the open space outside the hall, where the wind was blowing on the platform, overlooking the forest and the beautiful black lake in the distance, he saw the Thestrals flying, chasing some birds flying around kind.

"Pandora, how's your preparation for the intermediate wizard rank exam?" Lockhart asked gently.

"No problem, at least the Defence Against the Dark Arts class must be excellent," Pandora looked at Lockhart proudly. "If it's not excellent, punish me as you please."

Lockhart immediately thought of some beautiful pictures in his heart: "Then I have to pray that you won't be excellent in the test."

"You think beautifully!" Pandora also thought of something, patted Lockhart and smiled charmingly, "Professor, Valentine's Day is in two days~"

"Do you have any plans? Everything is up to you, dear."

"Actually, it doesn't matter. When I think of going on a trip with the professor this summer, Valentine's Day is nothing..." Pandora looked at Lockhart expectantly.

Lockhart also thought of this. He has hardly been alone with Pandora for a long time. If he can successfully abduct Pandora this time... When there is no Minister of Magic, and no other professors and students, he will You can do whatever you want with this beautiful little witch, just thinking about it makes you a little excited.

Lockhart, who could barely hold back his lust, was about to put his arms around Pandora, when he saw George and Fred walking towards him with a smile.

"Professor, our toy store is open!"

"Very smooth, thanks to your full support!"

"Welcome to visit during the holidays, you and Pandora are free to buy things!"

Lockhart was a little surprised. These two kids were very efficient. He turned around and said to Pandora, "Then this Valentine's Day, let's go to their store to play, how about that?"

Pandora also nodded with interest.

"I look forward to seeing you two." George and Fred announced the good news and left happily. They have a lot of things to do now.

After separating from Pandora, Lockhart received a notice from Dumbledore to go to the headmaster's office.

When he came to the office, Lockhart found that Snape and Professor McGonagall were already sitting there waiting for him. "Mr. Headmaster, what's the matter?"

Dumbledore looked at him kindly through the round lens: "Gidero, you're here, sit down, I won't pour you tea..."

Dumbledore is too embarrassed to mention this! When it came to drinking tea, Lockhart felt resentful: "What's the matter, tell me quickly."

"That's it, Minerva, Severus, and Gilderoy." Dumbledore put down the things in his hand, "I recently found some very interesting clues, which seem to point to another Horcrux of Voldemort, I Now you need to go out for a while. During this time, the school will be handed over to you."

"How long?" Professor McGonagall asked.

"Maybe a month, maybe I won't come back until the end of the semester."

"Hmph, what a competent and good principal..." Snape snorted coldly, "Why didn't you give the principal to Professor McGonagall earlier?"

"Dumbledore being the headmaster can protect us better!" McGonagall is also a fan of Dumbledore. Sometimes Lockhart even suspects that McGonagall likes Dumbledore, but because of Dumbledore, they are destined not to There are results. Dumbledore was accustomed to Snape's rants, and McGonagall was still furious at Snape's every rudeness: "Severus, please maintain at least some respect!"

"I will." Snape's expression was completely perfunctory to Professor McGonagall.

"Also, Gilderoy, I heard that the Occlumency you taught Harry has entered the practical stage, which is very good, let's make persistent efforts."

"Thank you, Headmaster, just leave if you have something to do." Lockhart was also a little impatient. The savior you set up will have to take the intermediate wizard rank exam. You'd better leave it alone.

Dumbledore didn't care about the impatience of the two, he smiled and nodded: "Then I'll go..."

"Whoosh!" Dumbledore Apparated in the headmaster's room.

"Hmph! Headmaster's privilege..." Snape seemed even more annoyed.

"Severus, how is your research on the Philosopher's Stone?" Lockhart asked. Professor McGonagall also looked at Snape, and she was also very curious.

"Very interesting stuff, amazing!" Snape's eyes lit up when he mentioned the Philosopher's Stone, "I haven't understood how it works, but I already have some reasonable guesses, and I believe it will be soon."

"I'm going back to continue my research now!" Snape seemed to be impatient, stood up and was about to leave.

McGonagall seemed a little disturbed: "Severus, the research needs to continue, but the children's exams, don't worry about it..."

"I will!" Snape dropped the sentence ~lightnovelpub.net~ and left the principal's office.

"Looking at him like this, I'm very worried about the results of the Potions class for the students taking the exam this year!" Lockhart said to Professor McGonagall.

"I'll let the students review it by themselves." McGonagall said firmly, and suddenly the words changed: "What happened to you and Granger, how did I find out that she was very close to you again."

Lockhart's head suddenly froze: "Professor McGonagall, I know you like that child Hermione very much, but can you give us a little credit?"

McGonagall shook her head: "I don't want Granger to be emotionally deceived, Gilderoy. I'd rather make her feel uncomfortable for a while than allow you to step on two boats. This kind of behavior may make everyone happy in a short time. But in the end it will hurt the feelings of the two girls!"

Well, it turned out that I was worried about opening a harem. Professor McGonagall was already busy enough with Umbridge, so I was still worried about this. I don't know if it's because Hermione is a Gryffindor, or if McGonagall is so concerned about every girl's love life... Anyway, Lockhart is a little annoyed: "Professor McGonagall, I assure you, I I have had face-to-face communication with Hermione, and now that the relationship between the two has been dealt with, can you please stop talking about it."

"Although I don't know how you communicated, I hope what you said is true, Gilderoy. Don't destroy my trust in you!" The word disbelief was written on Mag's face.

"Enough, Professor McGonagall, I'm going back to prepare review materials for the children!"

At least Lockhart felt that the two had parted ways...
