Chapter 153 Is This A Date?

Chapter 153 Is This A Date?
Fudge is too narrow-minded, and only pursues his own interests and image. He once had some conflicts with Joshua's great-grandmother. According to Joshua's guess, maybe his great-grandmother once disgraced Fudge, otherwise he would not hold grudges until now.

And it was this kind of unscrupulous self-interest that caused the originally free Prophet Daily to become a personal mouthpiece for the magic world, unscrupulously using public opinion to manipulate the minds of wizards.

Even other weekly magazines and daily newspapers in the British wizarding world, in order to pursue the so-called eye-catching point, quickly edited and compiled many strange and small articles.

Gilderoy Lockhart was promoted as a brilliant, great and heroic good professor, while Joshua became an ignorant, cowardly and bad boy with a halo of disaster.

However, in the wave of public opinion in the British magic world, one media newspaper did not choose to join forces, but published reports based on facts.

This media newspaper is "The Quibbler", as for how Joshua knew.

At the top of the Astronomy Tower, Joshua and Luna are sitting on the ground at the top of the tower.

Joshua looked up at the night sky, while Luna was reading a report written by her father, Mr. Lovegood, specially for Joshua.

Joshua was wandering around the Hogwarts castle with nothing to do after dinner. He ran into Luna who was looking for her shoes in the castle with bare feet.

Joshua took the initiative to ask for help, and Luna didn't refuse, but she couldn't find it, and Joshua didn't know how to spell the flying spell. In the end, he used the transfiguration technique he had mastered to conjure Luna's shape with a soft carpet. A pair of shoes that fit well and are comfortable.

"My father severely condemned the actions of the Ministry of Magic in the report. They are slandering, Mr. JoJo." Luna chorused the dissident magazine, revealing her little face wearing anti-demon glasses.

Through the anti-demon glasses, Luna did not see the "harassment" around Joshua. She tilted her head and blinked her eyes to confirm carefully. Things bother.

"Just call me Joshua, don't call me JOJO, I repeat, don't call me JOJO!" This is one of Joshua's principles, with a special stubbornness.

"You don't look very troubled, Joshua?" Luna took off her anti-demon glasses, and fiddled with her own carrot earrings with her small hands.

Joshua didn't go back directly. He stood up and leaned on the railing on the top of the astronomy tower. Looking up at the starry sky at night, he could see a very shining star among the stars, which was Polaris.

"Annoyance? I'm not annoyed, I'm just lamenting that not many wizards are smart, just like you, Luna." Joshua turned to look at Luna who was sitting on the ground and looked at him and said, "You are better than them." Much smarter, not deceived by lies, it turns out that you are a qualified Ravenclaw."

"Thank you for the compliment." Luna did not hide it, showing a pure smile, and the smile was like a gust of warm wind blowing away the last haze in Joshua's heart.

However, the anger towards Fudge didn't dissipate, and he went to find trouble with him later!

"When did your roommates start? Do you want my help?" Joshua came to Luna's side again, and they were closer than before.

"I don't think they did it. Although my shoes are always mysteriously missing, I suspect it's a hook." Luna shook her head, her wide eyes and high eyebrows looked very interesting.

"Okay," Joshua stood up, and stretched out his right hand to Luna very gentlemanly, "Dear Miss Lovegood, please take my hand and let me take you home."

Luna did not refuse, but looked at Joshua curiously and said, "Apparition, but isn't that a sixth-grade class? And didn't the professor say that apparition is not allowed in Hogwarts?" ?”

Joshua smiled mysteriously, "You'll find out later."

Luna put her slender hand on Joshua's palm, full of anticipation that Joshua's mystery aroused her curiosity.

Accompanied by brief dizziness, Luna was surprised to find that she actually appeared at the door of the Ravenclaw common room. If the bronze eagle head on the door hadn't started to go wrong, she thought she might be dreaming.

"How did you do it?" The curious baby Luna stared her eyes wide open. Her desire for knowledge made her constantly look up and down at Joshua, because she didn't see Joshua take out his wand just now. .

Joshua showed Luna the silver key pendant around his neck, which is the Portkey, "Ghosts' Deathday Party, you should have heard of it, this is the reward for passing the ghost test."

"Although it's not the only one, it also makes some people yearn for it, just like the Weasley twins, they always grab an old map to find some illusory secret treasure in Hogwarts." Joshua remembered the two Weasley brothers and the secret treasure he mentioned before.

They couldn't find them all the time, and for this reason, they have been sleeping and forgetting food and sleep. They hardly see anyone except in class. Even the business that Joshua cooperated with them has not had much movement.

"Oh, I've heard that," Luna said with a grunt, "it seems like everyone is laughing at them, but they still enjoy it."

Joshua put his hands on Luna's shoulders, looked at Luna without squinting and said, "Luna, listen, geniuses are often different from others, they never care about others, they only need to pursue themselves With the thoughts in our hearts, we can be fearless even in strong winds and waves, and one day, we will be able to prove that we are right, and those people are clowns!"

Joshua told Luna to let her be fearless in the face of bullying, and at the same time told herself that Joshua himself had to keep his mind on nothing and be held back by some things.

Luna looked into Joshua's eyes, wondering what she was thinking, but it was the bronze eagle head on the Ravenclaw gate that raised the question inappropriately.

"Which came first, the phoenix or the fire?"

The sudden appearance of the question seemed to remind Joshua and Luna to stop flirting.
"Oh, I think, it's time for me to answer the question." Luna raised her eyebrows and looked at Joshua, who was stunned for a while before realizing that he was still hugging Luna's shoulders.

"Oh, sorry," Joshua glanced at Luna after glancing at the bronze eagle head and said, "Can you let me try?"

Luna's eyes kept switching back and forth between the bronze eagle head and Joshua, "Okay."

Joshua stood in front of the bronze eagle head, and Luna stood aside.

"Phoenix came first and then fire, because you mentioned phoenix first and then fire." Joshua wasn't quite sure about the answer, after all, it was an opportunistic answer.

After getting the answer, the bronze eagle head stopped talking, so Joshua didn't know whether the answer was right or wrong.

But after a while, the bronze eagle head silently opened the door to the Ravenclaw lounge.

"It seems that I also have the talent to become a Ravenclaw." Joshua said complacently.

Luna smiled and said, "The correct answer is a cycle in no particular order, um. Since the doors are all open, then your answer is also correct."

Seeing Luna's back disappear behind the gate, Joshua left Ravenclaw Tower with a smile.
