In the middle of the night, a sudden scream came, and Lohart was startled, "Where did the scream come from?"

"I guess something happened outside." When Li Yang spoke, the man was already running outside the office.

He naturally thought of Tom Riddle.

As a teacher, Lockhart naturally was not willing to fall behind.

A section of the corridor leading to the Gryffindor College District was filled with students who also heard the news, and everyone formed a circle.

"What happened?" As soon as Lohart arrived here, he squeezed out the crowd, entered inside, and asked, as if he was the chief officer.

Li Yang followed behind Lockhart and easily entered the crowd.

There are only six people here.

Harry, Ron, Hermione, Neville, Felch, and the last one is the dead.

If Li Yang remembers correctly, he should be named Ed, a student from Gryffindor. I don’t remember the specific grade, but I’m not the same grade as him anyway.

This is not important, what is important is the cause of death.

How did he die?

Who killed it?

Li Yang originally thought it was Tom Riddle, but unlike the original work, there were no blood words on the walls around him, saying something like opening a secret room.

There was no wound on Ed's body, and the cause of death was not visible at all.

"It's Harry and the others."

Felch held on and grabbed Harry's neck and carried it to Lockhart, "Professor Lockhart, it must be them. When I came, I happened to see them next to the corpse."

"Not us!"

Harry and the others quickly argued, and Harry broke free from Felch's hand, rushed to Lockhart, and even loudly defended all the students around him.

“We just happened to pass by.”

"Passing by? You don't sleep in the dormitory at night, so you sneakily ran here to pass by?" Felch didn't believe it at all and retorted.

"We were left behind by Professor Lohart..."

"Oh, yes, they were left in the office by me and just returned."

Hearing this, Lockhart's attention turned from the sound of Ed's body. He heard Harry and the others' words, remembered this, and said justice to Harry and the others.

Felch had nothing to say.

"If the principal is not here, please let the students go back first and wait for the principal to come back..." Professor McGonagall hurried over and asked the principals of each college to take back the students of each college to control the scene.

The next day.

The sun is shining.

But all teachers and students felt like they were covered with a shadow.

"You lower graders are just dead, and you're fussing. When I went to the Ministry of Magic for an internship during the summer vacation, I participated in the operation to capture the black wizard. At that time, everyone died and a lot of people were dead." Some senior students boasted about themselves.

This made the lower grade students even more worried, fearing that one day they would be subjected to the unknown murder like Ed.

Even the teachers who teach are worried.

Except for one person.

Lockhart stood on the podium, maintaining his signature smile, "Good morning everyone, I saw fear from your tender faces, there is no need to know that you are in my Gidro Lockhart class, and under my protection, you will not be in any danger. After all, I am the third-class of the Sir Merlin..."

"It's coming again." Ron murmured in a low voice.

Many students were speechless.

Until Lockhart threw out a new topic, "In view of what happened last night, there may be unknown dangers hidden on campus, I feel it is necessary to improve everyone's self-protection ability, so I specifically proposed to the school to establish a duel club to exercise the practical ability of all students, and the school has agreed."

Before the students were doing well, Lockhart himself became excited and waved his fists, "Children, you will be very honored to be participants of the first duel club under my leadership, in the history of Hogwarts, not only will I leave me, but your names, come with me."

Lockhart led the students to a specially arranged classroom.

The tables, chairs and benches were all removed, and they were empty, except that there was a one-meter-high rectangular platform in the middle, and all the students surrounded the edge of the front.

Lockhart jumped to the high platform with a "rubbing" step.

The students' eyes were naturally focused on him.

It is not considered to be the focus of everyone's attention and is also considered a well-deserved focus.

Looking around, Lockhart felt a sense of satisfaction, then sighed, "Sadly, Professor Snape is not here, otherwise you will be able to see what a powerful wizard like me looks like in battle."

Snape is not here?

Li Yang felt strange secretly.

Dumbledore is not here, and Snape is not here, what's wrong?

Is Hogwarts going to be yellow?

Is it related to Ed's death last night?

It shouldn't be that Dumbledore was not there before Ed died...

"Now, let me see who is willing to be the first duel warrior? Li Yang, yes, it's you." Lockhart's words interrupted Li Yang's thoughts.

Li Yang raised his head in surprise.

He didn't expect that he had his own business here.

Isn't it Harry and Malfoy in the original work?

"Come up quickly, don't be shy." Lohart smiled and waved to Li Yang.

Li Yang had no choice but to step onto the stage.

"And your opponent is..." Lockhart's eyes swept across the students in the audience one by one, looking for the target of the duel with Li Yang.

"I'll do it."

Before Lockhart could be elected, someone volunteered to come to power.

Seeing this person, Li Yang couldn't help but shake his head.

Why is it him again?

Lockhart was very happy that some students could respond positively to him, and waved his hand, "It's great, it seems that Malfoy is the real warrior, so what are the two young players waiting for? Let's start, oh, by the way, don't forget to salute, nothing is more important than the cultivation of a wizard."

Lockhart said, retreating to the edge of the platform.

Li Yang and Malfoy each held magic wands in their hands, stood in the middle of the platform, saluted, then turned around and walked towards both sides of the platform.

Before he could finish his journey, Malfoy suddenly turned around and looked at Li Yang's defenseless back and couldn't help but smile.

He has been waiting for such an opportunity for too long.

During this year's holiday, he begged his father to teach him several powerful magics. Now, he can finally exclaim that anger that last year has been held in his heart!

"Destroy your weapon."

A red light shot out from Malfoy's wand and shot towards Li Yang's back.

"I haven't called to start yet, Malfoy!" Lockhart, who was about to start, shouted angrily.

"Didn't you shouted just now?" Malfoy said proudly.

He didn't care whether Lockhart was angry or not. He had already seen that Lockhart was just a paper tiger.

“It’s so despicable!”

"Li Yang, be careful."

...Taizi had a good relationship with Li Yang and others shouted angrily.

Malfoy was not ashamed, but instead looked at Harry and others provocatively, considering whether to use the excuse of the duel after Li Yang to teach Harry and the others a lesson.

"Armor protection." A faint voice rang out.

Li Yang seemed to be wearing an invisible layer of armor. The coma curse hit him, but was blocked by the iron armor curse and had no effect.

Turn around.

Looking at Malfoy.

Malfoy didn't expect that the sneak attack would fail, so he subconsciously panic.

This panic was hit by the red light emitted by Li Yang's magic wand.

"Destroy your weapon."

It's also a disarming curse.

The wand flew out of Malfoy's hand, slid over a parabola, and fell from the platform.

"My wand." Malfoy jumped off the stage quickly.

Not only to get the wand back, but also because I don’t dare to stay on the stage anymore. Wouldn’t I become Li Yang’s living target without the wand?

And when he found the wand, he found that the wand was stepping on someone's feet.

"Longbaton, you don't have eyes! Take away your stinky feet!" Malfoy pushed away Navig and picked up the wand, but found that there was a crack in the middle of the wand.

I don’t know if it was knocked when I fell to the ground or was trampled by Neville.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Anyway, Neville was still as timid as before, apologizing and retreating.

Finally, he looked up at Li Yang on the stage.

Li Yang noticed that Neville's face had a strange rosy look, and he felt a little excited.
Chapter completed!
