Chapter 122: The Battle at Lichen Bookstore
"Well, I don't blame you. Pay attention next time. ”
"Yes, little master!"
“ Braun!”
"Aunt Molly!
Braun pulled Dom and ran over.
The Weasleys were standing in line outside the store, waiting to enter the store to buy a book.
"Come here! Come here!
Molly S. Weasley greeted.
"This is a book signing party?"
Looking at a poster outside the store showing a blonde man smiling and holding a book "I Can Magic" in his hand
。
"Yes, Gilderoy· Lockhart's book signing.
Mom liked him.
Ronald grumbled and yawned.
Anyone who is called up early in the morning and queues will not be in a good mood.
It's just that the person in front of you is his mother.
He didn't dare to say anything more.
"Cousin Braun!
Ginny greeted with a smile holding a crucible.
Braun was happy to see Ginny, but not so happy to see the crucible and books in her arms.
Asked with a frown:
"How is it still old?
As if afraid that her mother would find out, Ginny whispered back:
"There are so many books to buy this year.
Light Gilderoy· Lockhart's needs four sets!
The family doesn't have much money. 39
He said and smiled, as if to tell Braun that he was okay.
Braun just wanted to say something.
The people in line in front entered the bookstore, and it was the turn of the Weasleys.
The crowd crowded into the bookstore.
Start letting Gilderoy· Signed by Lockhart.
And Braun finally notices Harry, who is mixed in with the Weasleys.
No way, he's too small.
Let Braun not find out.
“ Harry Potter!
Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
The photographer came over and helped me take a few pictures!
Gilderoy· Lockhart said in amazement.
Enthusiastically grabbed Harry and took the photo.
"It seems that this new teacher is still a little enthusiastic."
Braun whispered to Fred beside him.
"I always felt that he was a little different from the characters written in the book.
Hopefully, he can teach us something new in the new year.
And not like Quirrell did last semester. 35
Braun sighed inwardly:
"Kid, you think too much.
Quirrell is already pretty good.
At least people are also teaching seriously.
But this star teacher may not say.
Maybe he can come up with some kind of moth. ”
"Oh my God! Today is truly a memorable day!
Young Harry Potter walked into the Lichen Bookstore just to buy my autobiographical book!
What does this mean?
As a token of my gratitude I would like to give him a series of signed autobiographies for free!
There was a cheer from the crowd.
"But! Everybody!
There's more to celebrate than this news!
I, Gilderoy· Lockhart will soon become a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry!
Cheers for me!35
There was a burst of cheers from the crowd.
Gilderoy· Lockhart looked at the cheering crowd in a good mood, after all, the news that he could become a Hogwarts professor would definitely make books sell better.
And he will also earn more gold galleons.
"Take it! Harry· Potter! Don't be polite to me!"
Gilderoy· Lockhart shoved a stack of books into Harry's hands.
Watching him faint and go out.
"These books are for you, and I'll buy them myself...
He said and poured the book into Ginny's crucible.
Who knew but was rejected by Ginny:
"No, I have his book. Braun gave me one last year. ”
"Oh, okay then!
Harry said indifferently.
It's just that the smile on Braun is always a little ugly.
Since the last time Braun visited the Desleys, because of Dobby the elf.
I was locked up in a closet for a week.
If it hadn't been for the Weasleys' help, he might have had to spend the summer vacation in that home making him sad at the thought of those painful days.
Although he knew that things had nothing to do with Braun, his feelings about Braun were still a little complicated.
"Rejected, the famous Harry Potter!
Go to the bookstore and buy a book and get it on tomorrow's Daily Prophet is really worthy of you?"
A voice with some haughty voice came not far away.
Braun turned his head to look.
Sure enough, it was Draco Malfoy.
At the moment he was looking over with some mockery.
"Shut up! Malfoy! It's okay with you!"
Harry said angrily.
"Ignore him, Harry!35
Ronald squeezed over with a book in his arms and said.
"Malfoy, we don't want to get in trouble, so you be honest!"
"Honestly?
That's ridiculous, poor ghosts of the Weasley family!
I think your family must not even have the money for next month's meals in order to buy you books!
Malfoy sneered.
"I don't think it has anything to do with you, Malfoy!"
I saw Ronald's face flush with anger.
Braun stood up and said.
Malfoy was stunned.
Looked a little scared.
Braun's strength is still obvious to all.
For Braun, he still seemed a little scared.
"Oh, so Foley is here too!
A gloomy-looking man with a hooked nose walked in.
Stand by Malfoy's side.
"Look at you, Foley!
Mixed with this group of pure-blood traitors!
What has your family fallen into?
Lucius said with some compassion.
Malfoy also straightened up, no longer afraid.
Braun hasn't spoken yet.
Arthur S. Weasley came over.
"Lucius Malfoy!35
Arthur S. Weasley said coldly.
"So it was Arthur! I heard that you have been very busy with official business recently.
Daily raids from morning to night... In other words, did they pay you overtime?
The Ministry of Magic shouldn't be so picky, but you should also make a lot of money by being a dog for the Foley family...
As he spoke, he took out a somewhat tattered copy of the Elementary Transfiguration Guide from the crucible in Ginny's arms.
"It seems that the Foley family did not give as much money as expected.
Otherwise, I wouldn't even be able to afford books for class..."
Mr. Weasley's face turned red.
It was as if it was about to burn.
"Bang!"
Ginny's crucible flew out.
It hit Lucius' head stunned. Knock him out.
Mr. Weasley swooped over and slammed Lucius onto the bookshelf.
In an instant, dozens of books fell from the shelves.
Smashed on the heads of the two.
"Beat him hard! Dad! 99
Fred and George shouted.
"Arthur stop! Don't! Don't fight kids are here there!
Mrs. Weasley shouted.
Gilderoy· Lockhart was so frightened that he hid behind a desk, but soon became excited again:
"'"Quick! Take a picture!
Just write to buy Gilderoy· Lockhart's book Two wizards fight!
The photographer was also excited, and quickly nodded and picked up the camera and began to take pictures.
As the shutter sounded, bursts of purple smoke rose from the camera.
"Gentlemen! Okay, okay! Stop fighting here!"
The clerk begged with some panic.
But to no avail, the two still scuffled together.
"Get out of the way!
A tall man with a big voice walked in.
Separate the two with your big hands.
Lucius and Arthur S. Weasley looked a little miserable at the moment.
One eye was red and swollen from the dropped book, and the other had some blood stains at the corners of his mouth.
Shove the Transfiguration textbook into Ginny's hand:
"Book for you! Girl! This is the best thing your father can buy you!" 5
With that, he took Malfoy's arm and left.
Braun took the book that Ginny had slipped into the crucible.
I took out one of the notebooks, which was a little tattered.
There was some surprise in his eyes.
Tuck it into your own arms.
I didn't expect to find such a harvest on a trip.
Sensing other gazes, Braun looked up.
I saw that in the chaotic crowd, Harry was looking over here. Braun grinned at him and took the book in his hands.
"You shouldn't have fought him, Arthur!"
Hagrid whispered.
Arthur S. Weasley was still a little resentful at the moment.
Hagrid continues to reassure:
"Their house is terrible! All are bad people, even the blood stinks.
It is not very wise to clash with them. ""
Mr. Weasley muttered a few words.
But nothing more was said.
"Alright! Let's get out!"
Hagrid said in a loud voice.
The clerk seemed to want to stop them, after all, the turmoil just now caused a lot of damage to the store.
It's just that he looked a little scared after looking at Hagrid's huge physique.
"I want all the books that have fallen. Packed and sent to Foley Manor. I also got a set of textbooks for the first and second grades. Send them all. "5
Braun said to the clerk who was about to cry eagerly.
Let the clerk carry some gratitude:
"Thank you! Thank you very much!"
He knew Braun and had no doubts about his words.
I also breathed a sigh of relief in my heart.
Today he is in charge of the activities in the store.
Unexpectedly, such a thing happened, this matter was known by the boss, and he would definitely be punished.
If nothing else, those books that fall on the ground and are somewhat damaged must have to pay for themselves.
With Braun's promise, although he will be punished afterwards.
