Hogwarts Raven's Claw

Chapter 78: Dog Licker (Thanks to li77777762 for the reward)
The female student union president released her hand and said with a smile, "I'm Carol Mossen, this year's female student union president. Nice to meet you. Since she's your friend, I'll forgive her for being unreasonable this time."

Mike was about to say something when Hermione rushed out and said:

"Why did you destroy Mr. Lockhart's portrait? Don't you know that this is against school rules?"

"Huh? This is the result of an internal vote among Ravenclaws. How can you, a Gryffindor, have any say in this?" Carol raised her eyebrows and said, "Don't you know what that shameless guy did? He actually used that despicable fake love potion!"

"Isn't it just Gourmand? I've researched it, and this perfume isn't a pseudo-love potion at all. It can only amplify other people's feelings towards the user, and it can only be regarded as a catalyst at best. You are affected entirely because you like Mr. Lockhart!" Hermione argued, "Besides, Headmaster Dumbledore didn't give Mr. Lockhart too severe a punishment, which shows that this matter is not a serious matter."

Hermione's words frightened everyone, especially Penelope, who remembered her embarrassing reaction yesterday after hearing what Hermione said, and immediately blushed and fled away from the crowd.

Mike didn't have time to observe Penelope's reaction. After hearing what Hermione said, he knew that if he let her continue talking, today's matter would definitely not end well. The rule of Raven's Nest is to do your best to help other members without violating your own interests. Hermione continued to be so persistent when Carol gave her a way out, which would obviously deal a blow to Carol's reputation. If Hermione continued like this, she would definitely not end well.

Under the condemnation of the girls, Mike grabbed Hermione and dragged her out of the Ravenclaw common room.

"Huh~, did you go crazy just now? Don't you know that you won't get any advantage even if you report this to the professor? Would you be happy just to have points deducted for nothing?" Mike scolded, taking a deep breath.

Hermione didn't say anything after hearing this, her eyes were slightly red, and she turned around and wanted to leave. Perhaps because he felt that what he said was a bit too much, Mike grabbed her.

"You just said Malfoy called you a mudblood, didn't you? You should know what mudblood means, right?"

"Of course I know. You and Malfoy had such a big fight in your first year." Hermione said with her neck stiff, "Don't worry about it. I will take care of it."

"How are you going to deal with that? Ron's lousy Slug Curse?"

Hermione still kept her head down and said nothing.

"We are all Muggle-born wizards. In the words of the so-called pure-bloods, we are all lowly mudbloods. That's why we have to unite and help each other. Only in this way can we ensure that our interests are not violated." Mike supported Hermione's shoulders and comforted her softly, "Listen to me, come with me to Professor McGonagall and explain this matter clearly. Malfoy will get the punishment he deserves."

As if she was somewhat reluctant to have physical contact with Mike, Hermione took a few steps back and broke free from Mike's hand. Then she said in a voice so soft that it was almost inaudible, "Forget it."

There's no need to continue talking at this point. Since Hermione is determined not to get involved, just let her do as she pleases. After all, Mike doesn't think of himself as a bootlicker.

Thinking of this, Mike said no more. He said hello to Hermione and returned to the Ravenclaw common room, leaving Hermione alone and walking silently towards the stairs.

Coincidentally, Mike had Lockhart's Defense Against the Dark Arts class today. Lockhart was still as radiant in class as ever, as if what happened in Ravenclaw yesterday had never happened. But if you look closely, you can still see some scars on his face. It seems that Madam Pomfrey is not a fan of him.

Perhaps because he had made a fool of himself in the Gryffindor class before, Lockhart did not bring out strange magical creatures like Cornish goblins for the students to deal with. Instead, he read the textbook very conventionally, that is, the novel he wrote.

This teaching method obviously could not satisfy the Ravenclaw eagles. In addition, Lockhart's scandal in the Ravenclaw common room made the Ravenclaw eagles treat him as nothing. On the contrary, the Hufflepuff students who were in the same class were very interested in the class because there were many Muggle-born wizards among them.

Thus, a strange scene occurred in Lockhart's class.

The Ravenclaw eaglets, who were always smart and studious, were whispering and laughing, while the Hufflepuff students looked like good students listening attentively.

Of course, as an emotionless scoring machine, Mike did not slack off like his classmates. Instead, he pretended to listen to the class very seriously.

And Lockhart did not disappoint Mike. Perhaps out of friendship as they both came from Ravenclaw, Lockhart not only ignored the rude behavior of the Ravenclaw little eagles, but also ignored the Hufflepuff little badgers who were listening attentively. Whenever he had a question, he would call on Mike to answer it.

Even though Mike didn't know the answers to Lockhart's weird questions like "How does Lockhart deal with werewolves?" and could only make up some nonsense, Lockhart would still give him some consolation points.

The final result was that the Hufflepuff badgers gradually became dissatisfied with Lockhart. You know, although the Hufflepuffs have the same gentle personalities as their representative animal: the badger, this does not mean that they will only accept things and have no temper.

You should know that the famous "flat-headed brother", the honey badger is also a kind of badger, which is a fearless beast that can fight against anything.

The dissatisfied Hufflepuffs no longer abided by classroom discipline. Lockhart's classroom was as noisy as a vegetable market. The students' laughter and chatter completely drowned out the sound of Lockhart's lecture, making it impossible for Lockhart to continue teaching. He could only look at the people in the audience at a loss.

This is unprecedented in the history of Hogwarts. Lockhart has set a new historical record. No professor's class has ever been so chaotic.

In the end, the desperate Lockhart could only say helplessly that the class was over early and then fled the classroom because the little wizards in the audience had already started throwing things onto the stage.

Mike looked at Lockhart's embarrassed back, chuckled twice and prepared to leave the classroom. He still had a lot of information to check.

However, just as he stood up, a familiar voice suddenly called him.
