Chapter 557 Full of pits

"Are you really planning to use this book as the championship prize of this wizarding card competition?" Lee Jordan looked at "I Can Magic" handed to him by Albert, and asked speechlessly, " Dare I say, it has to be the most unpopular championship prize of all time."

"It's very valuable, with Lockhart's autograph on it!" Albert reminded with a smile.

"Signed? As long as it is a book written by Lockhart, he will be willing to sign it." Fred curled his lips in disdain, "I think this year's champion would be more willing to take ten Galleons than want this book Broken book."

"Could it be because you don't want this book, so you use it as a prize for the wizard card game?" George looked at Albert strangely, "I remember this book as if you wrote it for Lockhart. Let’s get a prize for writing a poem!”

At this moment, all three of them looked at Albert with weird eyes.

"No, this is a prize provided by Professor Lockhart after he knew that I planned to use his book as the championship prize." Albert said with a smile, "That means that this time the championship will not only have ten Galleons, but also ten Galleons." Received "I Can Be Magical" kindly provided by Professor Lockhart, with autograph on it."

The corners of the mouths of the three of them twitched slightly, which means that this book was obtained from Lockhart for nothing. It really deserves to be Albert!

The three of them have nothing to say, maybe those girls will be interested in Lockhart's book?

"By the way, how is your contact going?" Albert changed the subject casually.

"Dad has already contacted us, and you know there is a connection there, but the price may be high, and the reply should be in the next few days." Fred and George looked at each other and said in unison.

"However, is this really good? It is estimated that a large sum of Galleons will be invested, and it will definitely not be profitable to put it into production now." Lee Jordan said a little annoyed. How the wizard card can be officially put into production is a good thing, but if If they can't sell it, they will definitely lose money, and their capital is not too much.

"Do you think I look like a person who likes to lose money?" Albert smiled and comforted, "We can definitely make money, don't worry, after all, this is a unique business, and it's not about asking the price first, and it's not about immediately into production."

Although Albert is very confident, and they are also very confident in Albert, but the psychology is still uncertain after all!

In the end, several people could only believe in Albert's arrangement, although the Weasley twins preferred that Albert spend the limited Galleons on the research and development of joke props.

After talking about this matter, the three of them went back to the dormitory to get their homework and prepared to go to the library together.

Hermione suddenly came over and discussed with Albert the spell that Lockhart used in the book "Walking with Trolls".

"Didn't you ask Professor Lockhart?" Albert looked at Hermione in confusion.

"Professor Lockhart thinks I should be alone..."

"No no, what Professor Lockhart said may be right, but it will waste a lot of your time." Albert interrupted, "I think you should go to Professor Lockhart for advice, at least recently It would be more appropriate to ask me, wouldn't you?"

Hermione felt that what Albert said made sense. If no one explained the part of the knowledge in the book, it would be difficult to learn.

"You can be with other girls." Albert reminded kindly, "It is best to form a Defense Against the Dark Arts club, and then invite Professor Lockhart to give you professional guidance. It is not difficult to see from the book that the professor is very Good at dealing with black magic and dark creatures, even if it is just a verbal guidance, it can benefit everyone a lot."

"That's a good idea." Hermione nodded, and heard Albert say again, "If Lockhart is not willing, you just need to invite Harry to the club, and Lockhart will definitely be willing to help you."

"I see, thank you Albert." Hermione ran away quickly.

"You shouldn't be doing this."

Harry came to Albert's side with Ron after Hermione left, but his face looked very gloomy.

Harry didn't want to be dragged into the "Lockhart Worship Club" by Hermione at all.

"Professor Lockhart has done many great deeds. He must have rich experience in fighting against black magic and dark creatures. As long as he can reveal some experience, it will benefit you a lot." Albert said with a smile.

Harry's expression froze. Hearing Albert's praising Lockhart so much, although it sounded a bit reasonable, he always felt that it was unreliable.

What Lockhart is, Harry has already experienced it deeply during this month, and to be honest, he expressed doubts about Lockhart's great deeds. After all, most of the Muggle books are fictionalized by the author. Does anyone know if Lockhart has made up so many great books by himself?

"Harry, do you want to join us?" Hermione hurried back, holding a notebook in her hand, looking at her two friends, "We are..."

Just as Albert was thinking about how to get out, Fred, George and Lee Jordan came over with their homework and gave him a perfect assist.

"I still have something to do, so I'll leave first, you guys continue to chat." Albert said to Hermione: "If you need a badge, you can find us, and we can give you the cost price."

With that said, Albert and his roommates went to the library.

"I always think that guy has bad intentions." Harry looked at Albert's leaving back and muttered softly.

"I heard from Fred that Albert is very good at Defense Against the Dark Arts, and their dueling skills were all taught by Albert." Ron said suddenly, "I saw them duel with wands during the summer vacation. , It's really powerful."

"Didn't it mean that you can't use magic outside of school?" Harry remembered the warning letter he was sent by the Ministry of Magic again, and he suffered a lot because of it.

"As long as there are other wizards in the magic world, the Ministry of Magic will not know who uses magic." Ron reminded: "I remember telling you about this before."

"Oh, there seems to be such a thing." Harry became even more depressed, he didn't want to talk about Lockhart with Hermione, now it was too late for him to see Lockhart hiding, how could he be willing to take the initiative to go over, Isn't that asking for trouble?

"Is Albert really good?" Hermione looked at Ron curiously, wanting to get an answer from him.

"Very powerful." Ron said quietly, "Remember last semester, when Albert scared Malfoy out of his mind with a few words?"

"I remember that Albert seemed to prophesy to Malfoy back then, saying something." Harry was very happy that the two of them turned the topic to Malfoy.

"By the way, did that prophecy finally come true?"

"have no idea."

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward. The three of them couldn't remember what Albert said to Malfoy at the beginning, and they couldn't continue talking about this topic.
