The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

After confirming that all four Links understood what he meant, Barty Crouch Sr. retreated into the shadows again.

"Okay, now that the matter is over, does anyone want to go for a drink?" Dumbledore smiled and said to the other principals and Old Barty and others, "Come on Barty, and Ms. Maxim, Professor Karkaroff, how about we have a nightcap?"

Ludo Bagman was obviously very interested in Dumbledore's proposal. It was obvious that he was a restless person.

It's a pity that Barty Crouch Sr. dragged him into the room.

Karkaroff and Maxim were more straightforward. Before Dumbledore could finish speaking, they took Krum and Fleur out and walked out.

As they walked, they were still chatting fiercely in the languages ​​of their respective countries, seeming to be complaining about the arrogance of Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic of the United Kingdom.

Looking at the empty room after a while, Dumbledore shrugged and said helplessly to Link and Harry:

"Link, Harry, I suggest you go back quickly."

He winked at the two of them, "I believe that Gryffindor and Hufflepuff students are waiting to celebrate with you. It took a lot of effort for them to have such an excuse to make a fuss and take away This opportunity would be extremely inappropriate.”

Pay attention to the official account: Book Friends Base Camp Follow to get cash and coins!

Harry glanced at Link instinctively, saw Link nodding, and then followed Link out of the room.

The auditorium was now empty, and all the candles suspended in the air had been removed, making the pumpkin lantern look particularly eerie against the green flames inside.

Harry kept his head lowered until the two of them reached the stairs and were about to separate, then said with difficulty:

"Link, I really don't..."

"I know, as I just said, I trust you, Harry." Link interrupted Harry, "The situation we are facing is difficult now. Harry, I want you to remember that if anyone needs help Tell me and Dumbledore everything, and we will do our best to help you."

Harry didn't speak, but his breathing was obviously much faster, as if he couldn't control his emotions.

His entire face was buried in darkness, but with the help of the super-sensory spell, Link could still clearly see his red eyes and the tears flowing from them.

"Go back Harry, Dumbledore is right, go celebrate with your friends." Link patted Harry on the shoulder and said, "At least we should be happy tonight."

"Ok!"

Harry nodded heavily, and then reluctantly climbed up the marble stairs.

Link, on the other hand, kept watching Harry disappear before walking towards a door on the right side of the stairs.

His expression was a little helpless.

Even though he had done so much work, in the end Harry still became a warrior.

It's as if there is an invisible big hand behind everything, constantly fiddling with the direction of everything to ensure that everything develops roughly along the originally set route.

To be honest, this made Link feel a little powerless.

The only good thing is that the invisible hand is not omnipotent.

At least Cedric didn't become the Hogwarts Champion this time.

Link was very pleased with this.

Because in the original book, Cedric was killed by Peter Pettigrew with the Death Curse in the Triwizard Tournament.

But this time his fate has taken a turn, and Link believes that he should be able to continue to live.

But there is also a problem here, that is, Link is now a little afraid that this incident will hurt the friendship between him and Cedric.

After all, Cedric had such high hopes from everyone before, but now that he failed and was slapped in the face, a normal person would feel extremely ashamed, right?

When he thought of this, Link's mood became worse.

But soon, Link discovered that his worries were completely unnecessary.

Because as soon as he entered the Hufflepuff lounge, there was a roar of cheers in his ears, and Cedric rushed up to him immediately and gave him a big hug.

"Congratulations! Link!"

Cedric laughed and said, he was so excited that his face turned red, and he looked almost happier than Link himself.

"Thank you, thank you..."

Link said in a daze, he was a little unresponsive for a moment.

"Come and see what we have prepared for you! Pumpkin treacle pie, pumpkin stew, pumpkin candy, pumpkin cream soup... these are all made by the house elves using leftover pumpkins from Halloween! And of course... …”

Cedric pulled Link's arm further into the lounge and thrust a glass of beer into his arms, "Butterbeer! We bought this from the Weasley brothers at a huge price. ! In the past, we wouldn’t have dared to be so presumptuous, but it doesn’t matter today! Professor Sprout was also very happy, she allowed us to drink a little bit of it on such a festive day! "

The sweet aroma unique to pumpkin has wafted over.

This made Link's nose feel a little sore.

"This is really, really awesome. Seriously, Cedric, I thought you were going to get into trouble with me or be depressed or something. Damn, I was sad about it for a while."

"Why do you think so?" Cedric heard this as if he had heard some shocking news, "We are companions, we are Hufflepuffs, we are one! No matter which one of us becomes a warrior, I will be sincerely happy! Could it be that if I became a warrior, you would be jealous or resentful of me?"

"of course not!"

Link said firmly.

"Isn't that good? But I want to make it clear to you! In the Triwizard Tournament, that guy named Krum must be taught a lesson! If you fail to do it, don't blame me for being angry! "

"I'm very confident about this, I don't need you to remind me!"

After saying this, Cedric and Link both laughed, and they walked into the gathering place arm in arm.

The celebration has begun!

Many people were completely out of control long before Link arrived.

Even Rolf, who was usually the shyest, climbed up on the table in excitement at this time, imitating the appearance of King Kong in Muggle movies, beating his chest and screaming.

The rest of the people were trying their best to squeeze towards Link, eagerly stuffing pumpkin candy or peanuts and other things into his hands, and then excitedly shouting congratulatory words.

If Link takes their things or speaks a word or two to them, they will fall into a state of excitement based on madness.

It's as if through this kind of behavior, they can also gain some kind of grand sense of honor.

Of course, of all the things handed to Link, wine was always the most numerous.

Some outrageous guys even handed over firewhiskey that could be set on fire directly.

Normally, Link would have poured wine down their throats.

But today, he doesn’t refuse anyone who comes!
