Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, this should be true. After all, no student has ever obtained the privilege of being able to enter and leave the principal's office at will.

But the other party was the White Demon King after all, and when she was relying on him, she was naturally a bit jealous of him.

Trust is mutual, and she herself can't trust Dumbledore wholeheartedly, let alone gain the other's full trust.

So... the conversation just now should actually be Dumbledore's temptation?

Because she is the person who discovered the diary, Lao Deng wanted to test her reaction to see how much she knew about the diary.

Oh shit, it's over.

The half-eaten sandwich fell to the floor.

But Kate is completely in the mood to pick it up now, and she finds that her performance just now is extremely bad.

Starting from her own heart, she refused so eagerly because she didn't want to get involved in this muddy water.

But now from Dumbledore's point of view, does she have such a big reaction, does it mean that she knows something about the diary?

Continuing to deduce, is there a false element in the story she told about how to pick up the diary?

Boil!

Then Dumbledore definitely knew by now that she was lying!

It's fine for her to lie before, since he can't get evidence anyway, but now, with a Horcrux in front of her, she tells lies again...

A bean-sized bead of sweat slipped silently from Kate's forehead.

She couldn't help but raised her head and looked in the direction of the principal's office upstairs. Wouldn't it be strange if she went back and said she was willing to join?

Not going in, not going back.

As expected of the man who wrestled Grindelwald's arm, he put her in a dilemma with a single sentence.

Kate lowered her head and sighed. Isn't it a bit unreliable to place all her hopes on the timid image she created before?

Before she could finish struggling, a lukewarm voice came from behind: "Safiq, are you going to mourn for your sandwich here for three minutes?"

Kate looked back with a bitter face, and saw Malfoy and her followers standing behind her.

On the contrary, Malfoy was startled when he saw her bitter face: "You don't have to be so sad when you drop your sandwich on the floor, right?"

"...Oh." Kate was completely in the mood to argue with her now, and her whole body seemed to lose color. She picked up the sandwich and threw it into the trash can, then entered the lounge dejectedly.

The lifeless look made Malfoy unable to even utter the mocking words that had been brewing in his heart all morning.

This guy didn't eat in the auditorium at noon, and now the half-eaten sandwich in his hand fell to the ground.

"She...couldn't be like this because she was very hungry?" She turned around and asked her two followers for advice.

The two chubby guys, Crabbe and Goyle, couldn't understand her psychology, but as chubby guys, they must know how uncomfortable it is to not have enough to eat, so Dang even nodded frantically.

Malfoy frowned suspiciously, and after a while, he asked with a bit of disdain: "I remember you have a lot of snacks in your dormitory, bring me some in the afternoon."

That guy Safik didn't eat at noon, so he might pass out after class in the afternoon.

She just didn't want to embarrass Slytherin.

"What are you still doing? Go back to the dormitory and get some snacks!"

"Good, good!"

Chapter 8 Large Jealousy Scene

The first session in the afternoon is Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

Kate came early as usual, but after a noon struggle, her complexion was obviously not very good.

Since she handed over the diary to Lao Deng, there will be no accidents throughout this year.

But because of this, she didn't have the opportunity to join in the research on the diary.

As for why she suddenly became determined to take this muddy water again... Then I have to ask why the system is so cheating.

Obviously, the night before, she confirmed to the system that there were no tasks, but after she handed in the diary and ran back to the dormitory, she received a kind greeting from the system.

[Main task 5: Assist Dumbledore to find the secret of the diary]

[Main line extension task: find and destroy the basilisk hidden in Hogwarts]

Normally, she didn't release tasks, so she handed in her diary, and there were only two tasks in a row, but they were both mainline tasks.

Does the system think she is particularly easy to bully?

Kate is worried now. She searched for a long time in the second grade plot of the original book, and found that most of the plots were fragmented because of her handing in the diary.

At least Dumbledore would not open the Chamber of Secrets to release the basilisk, and even if Harry was found to be Parseltongue, at most he would be discussed, and there was no risk at all.

The only thing that is certain is that Dumbledore will not destroy the diary for the time being, because he still has to explore the secrets in the diary.

After he knew about the Chamber of Secrets, he would definitely go and destroy the basilisk, without alarming the whole school, except for Snape.

What does this make her do?

Is it really necessary to tell him with a shy face that she feels it is her honor to contribute to the greatest White Wizard?

Heh, I'm not afraid of lightning strikes when I say such things.

While she was thinking sadly about how to tell Dumbledore, a figure came quietly behind her.

"Who!"

The body subconsciously drew out the wand and pointed it at the other party. Kate turned her head, only to find that Malfoy was standing behind her.

"What do you want?" she asked, frowning.

Could it be that this guy has been trying to sneak attack on him since yesterday?

Does she still remember the thing that she encouraged her to sue last school year?

Malfoy blushed and coughed lightly, casually spilling some snacks on her table: "Eat."

"...Huh?" Kate looked at the table full of snacks in a daze.

Could it be that she wanted to poison her?

"Why so many questions!"

Malfoy hummed feigned impatience, looked around again to make sure there were no other students, and then forced one of the chocolates into her hand.

"Hurry up, or you will faint from hunger in a while, and you will be ashamed of Slytherin."

After that, she raised her head high and stared at her with a haughty attitude, as if she would not leave unless Kate ate.

Looking at the well-packed chocolate in her hand, although Kate was still a little dazed, she also knew that Malfoy would not use this method of being caught at a glance to harm herself.

So... this person is caring about her?

She opened the wrapping paper silently, ate the chocolate in a few bites, put the snacks and candies on the table away and put them in her bag, then looked up at her: "Is this enough?"

A satisfied smile appeared on Malfoy's face before he turned and returned to his seat.

What a coaxing young lady.

Kate casually picked up another candy and tore open the wrapping. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Hermione walking over with the book in her arms, and stuffed the candy into her mouth.

"How is it, sweet or not?" She asked with a smile.

Feeling a sweet taste spreading in her mouth in an instant, Hermione's face flushed slightly, she pursed her lips and nodded: "Mmm!"

The two of them were still sweet, and Harry sat down with Ron behind him in disgrace.

As soon as Kate turned around, she saw that his face was not very good, and asked strangely, "What's wrong with you?"

"I met a first-year student who asked me to take a photo, and I also met Lockhart..."

His words came to an abrupt end as Lockhart passed by.

Kate saw that he already had a problem with Lockhart, so she just smiled and turned to watch some idiot start to perform.

Lockhart walked to the podium and cleared his throat loudly, and the class fell silent.

"I, Gilderoy Lockhart, [-]rd Class of the Order of Merlin, Honorary Member of the Defense Against the Dark Arts, five-time Wizards Weekly Award for Most Charming Smile - but I don't talk about that, I'm not The one who exorcised Wan Lun's female ghost with a smile!"

A few people in the class laughed a bit.

"I see that you have all bought my complete set of books. I think we will do a small quiz today. Don't be afraid, just to see how you read it."

After handing out the papers, he returned to the podium and said, "I'll give you three and 10 minutes, start now!"

Kate took a cursory glance at the paper, and sure enough, it was the same as the original book. It was full of personal questions about Lockhart, such as asking him about his favorite color or birthday.

She saw Hermione smiling knowingly while holding the paper, and started to write quickly, then turned her head again, and found that a small number of girls in the class had similar expressions and buried themselves in the test paper, which said,

It seemed that if they filled the entire test paper, they would be able to gain Lockhart's favor—of course, most of the little witches at this age would not have any in-depth thoughts, but simply wanted to get close to their idols.

Which girl didn't like a few idols when she was young?

But for some reason, she was a little upset when she saw Hermione's expression of admiration for Lockhart's idiot.

It's not that you can't worship idols, but you have to find someone who can meet the standards of conduct and ability, right?

Even though she was still eating the candy she gave her, her hands were written with other people's personal preferences... Why didn't Hermione pay so much attention to her preferences?

Looking at the blank paper in front of her, Kate thought for no reason what she had heard in her previous life.

How to make one body more naked, then put on shoes and socks for the other party.

In the same way, to make an already blank test paper even more blank, you only need to write your name at the beginning of the paper.

Looking at Hermione who had already written dozens of questions, Kate felt for the first time that this was a good idea.

Half an hour later, Lockhart put away the test paper and looked through it in front of the whole class.

"Tsk tsk, almost no one remembers that I like lilac color the most, what a pity..."

His flipping hand and voice stopped together, and he took out another test paper: "Oh, let me see, this student who handed in a blank paper is... Kate Shafik? Please stand up this student. "

Kate stood up amidst everyone's surprised eyes.

Lockhart walked in front of her, still wearing his most charming smile: "Student Safik, if you want to get my attention by not writing the test paper, then congratulations, you have succeeded. "

She leaned back calmly, without speaking.

However, Lockhart didn't seem to feel any embarrassment at all. Seeing her silence, he acquiesced in what he said just now, and even brushed his hair coquettishly.

"However, student Shafik, if you hand in a blank paper in class, points will be deducted. I think you should consider the consequences before you look for a chance to approach me next time."

Kate already clearly felt the mockery in a few pairs of eyes staring at her.

With a faint smile on her lips, she said, "However, remembering to teach your personal hobbies is of no use to our study."

As soon as she said this, she saw Lockhart's charming smile froze for a moment, and even Hermione who was beside her was a little surprised and secretly tugged at the hem of her clothes, telling her to stop talking.

"Interesting point of view," Lockhart could barely maintain his demeanor, "I said it before, this is to test whether you have read my book in advance..."

"But isn't the important thing about how to deal with various monsters in the book?"

Kate tilted her head pretending to be puzzled, "Or do you think that remembering your one hundred points of personal information will enable us to successfully repel female ghosts or hags when we encounter them?"

Harry in the back couldn't hold back his laughter when he heard the last sentence.

Faced with her aggressiveness, Lockhart finally became a little annoyed, but he still forced his respect.

"Deliberately irritate me to attract my attention, very good, classmate Safik, please come to me on weekend nights, I think you will be very willing to help me with small things."

After speaking, he forcibly changed the subject, and took out a large cage covered with cloth from behind the podium and put it on the table, "Now, what I am about to release is the most terrifying creature in the magic world..."

Hermione forced Kate to sit down, and while Lockhart was still delivering his speech, she leaned over to her side: "What were you doing just now, Kate? You're contradicting the professor!"

The normally meek and introverted girl suddenly confronted the professor so boldly that Hermione almost thought that the person next to her had been replaced.

"Surprised?" Kate tugged at her neckline casually, "I just don't like him very much."

Hermione frowned and shook her head: "No, Kate, you must be hiding something..."

Before she could finish her sentence, she caught a glimpse out of the corner of her eye as Lockhart lifted the veil, revealing a cage full of Cornwall elves.

"I bet," Kate whispered in her ear, "he's going to unleash these little elves all at once and mess up the class."

Hermione subconsciously wanted to refute her, but in the next second, she saw Lockhart directly open the cage door, releasing all these iron blue and chattering elves.

The classroom is in chaos.
