Hogwarts: I've acquired the Father System

He had a handsome face, outstanding talent, and lovely white teeth, but all of that came to an end at Hogwarts.

The Defense Against the Dark Arts course at Hogwarts always has the most useless teachers.

Gilderoy Lockhart was not spared from this curse either; he became a pitiful man who could only move his eyes.

Because of his pitiful state, countless fans of Gilderoy Lockhart have traveled great distances to St. Mungo's to visit him in the past two or three years.

Therefore, when they saw Lockhart's miserable state...

Lockhart's fans blamed all the mistakes on Darren Porter.

This poor thing is found in the students at Hogwarts who are constantly bullied.

I have visited many students at Hogwarts, and without exception, they all said how miserable Darren Potter was.

He had a tragic background, a tragic childhood, and the tragedy of failing to win the affections of his own brother.

He doesn't even have the same aura as his brother Harry Potter.

He was at school when he was kidnapped by Death Eaters in an attempt to capture Harry Potter, and nearly lost his life.

Later, because of Harry Potter, he was repeatedly drawn into countless life-threatening situations.

This poor child was falsely accused by Lockhart's fans of being the murderer who harmed Lockhart.

As I write this, I feel trembling all over, my hands and feet are icy cold and I'm covered in cold sweat despite the hot weather.

What kind of hatred could drive them to falsely accuse even a student like this?

However, in order to write an honest article, I still went to see Miss Laurie Laut, Lockhart's personal physician at St. Mungo's.

Miss Laurie Laut is a very righteous doctor. She gave me a photo pod, which she had found outside.

"This is a photo-taking ball I found."

I just thought it was a photo sphere, maybe it contained something, but I never imagined it contained evidence of Lockhart's crimes!

Yes, I can only describe it as incriminating evidence, because I don't know what kind of bastard could do such a thing.

I urge all Lockhart fans to be rational and stop dragging a poor student down with them; he's being driven crazy by Lockhart's torment.

At Christmas, Darren Porter came to visit Lockhart. Two witches, who were Lockhart's fans, insulted Darren Porter.

Darren Porter was nearly driven to the brink of collapse by their insults.

Miss Laurie Laut's description was not an exaggeration.

I learned from Hogwarts that Darren Potter had a difficult year.

It might be because of what happened at the end of last year's three-way championship.

It could also be because of the new semester, Harry Potter, and his occasional bursts of madness.

I have no idea.

But what they knew was that Darren Porter had almost been insulted and sent to St. Mungo's when he visited Lockhart.

Are these Lockhart fans?

Did they want to drive Darren Porter to his death so they could cover up Lockhart's crimes? I obtained a photo swatch from Miss Laurie Laut.

To purchase a commemorative photo bulb, please contact xxxx. The price for a commemorative photo bulb is three Galleons.

Let's give this boy justice, even if it's long overdue. This concludes the article.

Darren saw that people were already buying photo pods. He almost looked completely bewildered.

Isn't this a bit too opportunistic?

Besides, he provided the photo sphere, so why didn't he get paid? Did Rita Skeeter embezzle it from him?

Perhaps he should go find Rita Skeeter himself? Maybe he'll discover Darren's lemons.

An owl happened to be carrying a bag of Galleons. Because it was so heavy, the owl flew erratically.

Finally, they almost threw the golden dagger at Darren's head. Luckily, Darren was quick enough to stop it.

Next came a letter. An anonymous letter. Dear Darren:

I am the reporter who wrote the article about Lockhart for the Daily Prophet. I had the privilege of hearing about your story, and that's why I wrote this article.

I will only receive the cost of producing Galleons; any remaining Galleons will be given to you as a token of my support.

This is the profit made from the photo booth this morning.

We will send the profits to you via owl at irregular intervals, or directly to your Gringotts account.

I imagine you must have suffered greatly at the hands of those people over the past few years.

Love, my friend. Darren opened the Galleon.

There were about several hundred Galleons inside, and Darren looked at them with a shocked expression.

This article was only published today, and even though it was sent to Hogwarts a little late, it has already earned so much.

Huge profits!

But of course he couldn't say that. An angry expression appeared on his face.

“Miss Laurie Laut, she promised me she wouldn’t tell anyone about this, so why did she turn around and give an interview to reporters?”

Doesn't she realize how much this will affect Professor Lockhart?

Professor Lockhart will definitely be ridiculed by many people. I was wondering why my photo pod was missing; it turns out she found it.

But, but she and he can't just be handed over to the reporters like this!

[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]

[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]

[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]

[bite……]

Darren spoke with an indignant expression on his face.

He took out some stationery and immediately wrote a rant to Miss Laurie Laut.

He wanted everyone to believe that everything was done by Miss Laurie Laut, and that he, the pure-hearted little saint, had done absolutely nothing. That's right.

He even wrote a roaring letter for Professor Lockhart! Professor Lockhart must have been incredibly touched.

Darren pursed his lips and wrote on the letter:

You are a truly untrustworthy lady; Professor Lockhart has already learned his lesson.

I, the victim, have already let him go, so why did you do this after I asked you to keep it a secret?

The tone was highly condemnatory, the handwriting was messy, and it was full of the person's worry and anger.

This earned him another boost in Fatherhood Points.

"Hermione, brother, Ron, tell me, how can there be such an outrageous lady in the world?"

I made her promise not to tell anyone! My poor Professor Lockhart!

[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]

[Ding, Fatherhood Value +100]

[bite……].

Chapter 577 Who to Fire?!

Regardless, Harry and Hermione were extremely guilty. But they didn't say a word.

Even if Darren didn't want others to know about this, they wouldn't let him bear such a bad reputation.

As for that Miss Laurie Laut, she's just a die-hard Lockhart fan anyway.

She might have even insulted Darren, so letting her experience cyberbullying doesn't seem like a bad thing.

Because of Lockhart's situation, Darren received even more sympathetic glances at school.

Just as Darren was starting to feel a bit of a headache, the matter was quickly suppressed again.

The Azkaban prison break, which was previously disliked by students, has once again garnered attention.

After the Ministry of Magic failed to find the Death Eaters for several days, many people began to panic.

They feared that the Ministry of Magic would once again find nothing, just like with their investigation of Sirius Black.

Fudge's reputation plummeted.

Many students have begun to examine whether the events that Darren and Harry experienced last year are true.

The projection of Dumbledore announcing Voldemort's return might actually be real. These voices filled every corner of the campus.

Even the professors began to carefully examine every single message in the Daily Prophet.

A Ravenclaw student openly proclaimed in the Great Hall that he believed the mysterious man had returned.
