Hogwarts: I will not become the Dark Lord
#319 - Is he really a genius?
The next morning, Harry hurriedly found Jerry.
"Did you see it all last night?" Jerry said with a smile.
"Yes, I..." Harry seemed a little uneasy, nodded, "Are we really going to face a dragon in the first task of the Triwizard Tournament?"
Hermione, who was listening to them in a daze, frowned and turned to Jerry in confusion: "A dragon? What are you talking about? Is Hagrid secretly raising dragons again?"
Harry quickly explained, with a hint of anxiety in his voice: "It's not that, Hermione, it's the first challenge of the Triwizard Tournament, we have to face a dragon head-on!"
"Are you kidding me?" Hermione exclaimed, her eyes wide with disbelief, "No matter what kind of dragon it is, the magical resistance of its skin cannot be easily broken! Sending you to deal with a dragon, how is that different from suicide?"
"How could I joke about something like this!" Harry said, "The dragons are now locked in the Forbidden Forest not far from Hagrid's hut, I saw it clearly last night! Ron's brother Charlie is here too!"
"But I secretly overheard Charlie talking to Hagrid, we only need to pass by the dragon!"
Jerry smiled slightly, a hint of depth flashing in his eyes. For Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, winning the Triwizard Tournament was certainly important, but the deeper purpose was that everyone yearned to prove one thing—even Dumbledore was just flesh and blood, with mortal limitations!
"Where are you going?" Jerry asked when he saw Harry suddenly stand up.
"I'm going to find Cedric," Harry said with a firm look, "If some of us know the content of the competition in advance, then it's obviously too unfair to Cedric."
With that, Harry turned and resolutely left the hall.
"Jerry, that's a dragon, are you... okay?"
Hermione sighed and looked at Jerry worriedly.
"Are you doubting my strength?" Jerry asked, a confident smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.
Seeing this, Hermione did not relax, but instead strengthened her idea: "Just in case, we should still go to the library to carefully study the methods of dealing with dragons, and see if there are any spells to deal with them." After speaking, she pulled Jerry and decided to act immediately.
In the afternoon, Harry reappeared in the library in a hurry, finding Jerry and Hermione, who were buried in a sea of books. He led the two to the Great Hall in a hurry, his expression solemn.
"I forgot to tell you something this morning!" Harry lowered his voice, with a hint of urgency, "I suspect Karkaroff put my name in the Goblet of Fire!"
"What? Why?" Jerry and Hermione asked in surprise at the same time.
Harry took a deep breath and explained: "After I came back from the Forbidden Forest last night, I contacted Sirius using the fireplace in the Gryffindor common room. He told me that Karkaroff is actually a Death Eater! He was once arrested and imprisoned in Azkaban with Sirius, but later he was released by the Ministry of Magic."
"This may be the real reason why Headmaster Dumbledore insisted on inviting Moody to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor even though he knew Moody was suspicious!"
"Perhaps Professor Dumbledore wanted to guard against Karkaroff, after all, Moody was once the Ministry of Magic's most outstanding Auror who arrested the most dark wizards! Back then, Moody personally caught Karkaroff and sent him to Azkaban."
"Jerry, do you remember? The night before Moody arrived at Hogwarts to take office, he was attacked by an unknown assailant. Now it seems that it was probably a conspiracy by the Death Eaters, they tried to prevent Moody from coming to Hogwarts!"
"Sirius also revealed to me that since Karkaroff escaped from Azkaban, he has not only failed to mend his ways, but has instead become even worse, teaching dark magic in his own school. He told me to be wary of the students from Durmstrang."
"It's chilling to think about it, if someone wanted to secretly attack me, and wanted it to look like an unfortunate accident, then this Triwizard Tournament undoubtedly provides a perfect opportunity. They only need to stand by and let the ferocious dragon become their scapegoat, and they can achieve their goal without leaving a trace."
"This is a well-planned and seamless conspiracy. They only need to stand in the dark and wait for the dragon to complete everything for them!"
Jerry: Logically sound, clear and organized, you are invincible, kid!
Is Harry really a genius!
If Moody (Barty Crouch Jr.) heard this, he would probably die laughing!
Harry's words also shocked Hermione, and she couldn't help but widen her eyes, her thoughts racing.
"Then, what about Jerry?" Hermione turned to Jerry, her voice full of doubt, "Who put your name in the Goblet of Fire?"
Harry scratched the back of his head and said with a wry smile: "Well, I don't know about that, but Karkaroff is really suspicious!"
Jerry shrugged, he also wanted to know which "kind person" did good deeds without leaving a name!
"Okay, we don't have time to dwell on these things now," Hermione tried to make her voice sound less anxious, "The most important task right now is to find a way to deal with the dragons and ensure that you can safely pass the first task of the Triwizard Tournament. As for Karkaroff's secret, we can only talk about it later!"
Harry nodded and then asked: "Then have you guys found anything in the library?"
"Nothing, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack!" Hermione slumped on the table, feeling a little discouraged.
Harry thought for a while and made a suggestion: "Maybe we can ask Hagrid, after all, he is the professor of Care of Magical Creatures, and he has also raised dragons."
However, Hermione shook her head, expressing her disapproval: "Hagrid? Hagrid is different from us, he is a half-giant, I think asking him will only tell us how docile and cute they are."
"Actually, it's not like there's no way," Jerry said thoughtfully, stroking his chin, half-jokingly, "Weak to fire if hairy, weak to chrysanthemum if large, Harry, maybe you..."
"Don't joke, Jerry," Harry shook his head vigorously, "Do you mean you want me to put my wand into the dragon's..."
"Forget it, I'll think of another way!"
