The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

Vol 2 Chapter 20: lockhart autograph

Tom looked at the diary and showed a kind smile: What a good search engine, this kind of tutor that won't get tired, you can't find it with a lantern! You know, sometimes one-on-one tutoring costs hundreds of dollars an hour—not necessarily a reliable one.

As for whether Riddle had any personal goods in it, Tom felt that there was a high probability of not. After all, his speed of speech and the amount of teaching make it difficult to lie. And Tom will look at it with his own mind later, and if there is something wrong, he can also see it.

About three hours later, Riddle finished his study of runes. Lectures were really exhausting, and by the end Riddle's ink had faded - literally not a drop!

"This is my understanding of runes."

"Thank you, senior! Senior has worked so hard!"

"It's nothing, since you called me a long voice, then I will naturally cover you..."

"Senior must be tired, right? I won't disturb you, you should rest early."

"Wait--"

Tom closed the diary.

Riddle's diary can control others by amplifying dark emotions, and can also draw strength through chat. The former, Tom has nothing to worry about. In the latter case, as long as Tom keeps Riddle's output, the more he talks, the more power he has accumulated will be consumed, and the whole will fall into a weak state.

There is nothing to be afraid of anymore.

After Tom put away the diary, he first transformed into a unicorn to wash away the darkness in his heart, then stretched out, sat down at the table, and sorted out "Tom's Rune Pen Talk".

After watching it for a while, Tom felt greatly inspired, so he found a wooden block and began to practice the carving of Riddle's "self-created" runes.

Tom didn't sleep that night.

The next day, when Hermione saw Tom, she was shocked: Tom came to work in the bookstore with two dark circles under his eyes.

"Are you staying up late?" Hermione asked with concern.

"Yes, I learned a little new knowledge, so I went to bed a little late." Then Tom casually told Hermione about runes, which made Hermione fascinated.

"Hey, take this one." Tom handed Hermione the little toy he made earlier, "A little application of the rune."

Hermione laughed until her eyes became crescents. While playing with the small coin, she asked inadvertently, "The little girl who came with you yesterday is the one that Professor McGonagall asked you to visit?"

"That's right, her name is Peggy. I have an intuition that she should also be a Ravenclaw."

"Oh," Hermione fiddled with the coin and didn't say anything, just responded.

But Tom still leaned in. "Look, it's lit up like this, and it can float."

"pretty good."

"Actually, this involves the application of runes. I'll tell you slowly..." Tom took a piece of parchment and sold it now. The order of lectures was actually Riddle's idea yesterday. Tom didn't stop until the whole parchment was filled with writing and drawing.

"Actually, I don't want to make a trip here. It's a long way off, but who asked Professor McGonagall to give too much?" Tom took out two notebooks. "Look, Professor McGonagall's notes!"

But today I can't read the notes.

Because Mr. Lawrence came over and gave Tom a new task: arranging the venue for the new book signing.

The great Mr. Lockhart will arrive at his loyal Bookstore on Wednesday for a book signing from 12:30 to 14:30, this time for his autobiography, The Magical Me.

Hermione got excited when she heard this: "We can meet Mr. Lockhart in person? He wrote almost all the books on the list!"

Tom: Excuse me!

But even if Tom feels very annoying, he has to finish the arrangement of the venue. But there is not much work, mainly to remove a few bookshelves, clear an open space, then build a table and table, and finally hang the banners out.

Tom pondered the routine of Muggle stars to hold fan meetings, so he went to build a lot of fences. First, he separated Lockhart's table with fences, hoping that everyone could watch monkeys in a civilized manner. Then there is a tortuous passage in the passage with a fence.

This design is for diversion, so that the number of idol contacts at the same time can be controlled within a reasonable range.

Wednesday arrived.

Lockhart deserves to be the top figure in the wizarding world today. Although this person may not even know the academic journals of wizards, it does not prevent him from being admired by a large group of middle-aged and elderly women like Mrs. Weasley and pure people like Hermione. sought after by girls.

That is to say, there is no "HowNet" in the wizarding world, otherwise Tom might be ruined by one problem today.

Today, Diagon Alley welcomed a large number of Lockhart fans - most of whom were witches of Mrs Weasley's age, and they rushed to the Blossom Bookstore. Because according to their experience, every Lockhart book signing is crowded with people~www.readwn.com~ can't get through. If you don't go early to get a favorable position, I'm afraid you won't be able to buy the book until it's almost over.

However, this time is a little different from the past. There are still as many fans who come to buy autographed books, but this time they are lined up in a long line by the winding fence. Although there are many people, they are organized a lot, even in bookstores There is also a small passageway left at the door for those students who normally come to buy books to pass.

Such orderly queuing has also greatly improved the efficiency of the signing ceremony.

Lockhart himself was already sitting in the bookstore waiting.

The walls around the bookstore are covered with large pictures of him - each of Lockhart winking at the outside world and showing his dazzling white teeth. When Tom hung up the pictures, these brightly smiling Lockharts left an indelible impression on him: mental pollution. Think about it, dozens of the same faces staring at you with a smile on your face...

Hermione was eager to help, but was sternly rejected by Tom righteously.

Lockhart, surrounded by his own photos, did not feel any embarrassment at all. Today, he was wearing a forget-me-not robe and a top-notch wizard hat. Whenever his fans come over, he will tirelessly show a bright smile, and then sign his name on the new book.

I have to say that as an idol, Lockhart is still qualified. No matter how many people come, his smile is as bright as the beginning.

Lockhart didn't come alone. He also brought a short photographer from the Daily Prophet. At this time, the photographer was jumping up and down with a large black camera to take pictures. Every time he pressed the shutter, the camera's flash blazed blindingly, along with a plume of purple smoke.
