Hogwarts Archaeologist Toby

Cedric and Harry are both Seekers, but in addition to the Seeker, there is also a goalkeeper absent from the Chudley Cannons. The place was given over to Harry.

He was worried at first, worried that it would interfere with the team's battle plan.

But the Chudley Cannons, who lost to the Tramps, had no battle plan at all.

Before the start of the game, as the captain, Gjen said to the audience, "Let us all cross our fingers and look forward to the most glorious moment."

Then they were beaten by Holyhead Harpies.

This was a complete defeat. Harry had never been so desperate in a game. 33 novel network

Not only does he have to avoid Bludgers from the opposing team, but he also has to be careful on his own side.

What was even worse was Cedric, who deflected his own team's quaffles more times than the opponent's. For a moment, he couldn't even tell the number of people on the enemy team - whether it was seven or eleven.

In other words, Gjeon was relatively honest, but he also almost didn't get his head blown off by a bat from his own team's batsman.

This was a three-man versus eleven-man game, and it was not until the irregular fighting in the second half that Harry felt the warmth from his own team members—if only fighting was judged, they were pretty good players, but very difficult. He was sent off soon, and he didn't have time to cause too many problems to the opposing team - at most, he could lose a few hairs, replace the torn witch robe with a new one, and smooth the tail of the broom.

The final game ended with a score of 20:370. Harry had a chance to catch the Snitch, but was sent flying by a batter from the Cannons, almost breaking Harry's fingers.

"It's ok."

After the game, Gjeon was even in the mood to comfort the two little guys. He said with a smile: "I feel that our strength is almost equal to that of the Rangers. This can be considered an improvement."

Harry was wheezing and unable to speak, and Cedric looked at the Holyhead Harpies who were even perfunctory in celebrating, not at all reconciled in his heart.

The other members of the artillery team are already discussing going to the bar for a drink.

The audience on the court began to leave one after another. Slughorn stood up after reflecting on the fierce game for a while. He said to Toby intentionally or unintentionally: "You must notify me when Albus comes back." , retirement days are slowly becoming boring.”

"Bored?" Toby deliberately stood next to Snape and said loudly: "Then come back and be the Dean of Slytherin. It happens that there is an old guy in the school who wants to retire - of course, he will definitely retire voluntarily. .”

Snape stared at Toby with unkind eyes, and he said gloomily: "If you really have so much free time, you'd better take more care of your proud disciple."

"Ah, Severus." Toby turned around and patted his shoulder hard and said: "Of course, of course I will take care of you. You will retire tonight. I guarantee that your pension will be paid to you in time. Yes, it will definitely allow you to live a good life in Spider End Alley."

Snape angrily shook off Toby's palm, and Slughorn said goodbye to them cheerfully, but at the end he glanced at the castle with some reluctance.

The game was over, and Snape, the referee, had nothing to do, but Toby still had things to do.

He came to the players' lounge and saw the Cannon players who were excitedly praising each other, as well as Harry and Cedric who were huddled in the corner.

"The shot you made just now was awesome, definitely at the World Cup level!"

"You're not bad at shooting the ball, it's so fast that I can't even see it clearly!"

"Please let it go."

Toby walked through the crowd while shouting. He found Gjeon and asked: "How are they? Are these two little guys okay?"

"Wonderful!" Gjeon said excitedly, "Can these two kids sign the contract now - I can fire those two guys who didn't show up when I go back!"

Harry and Cedric panicked.

"Don't!" Harry shouted quickly: "I...I usually have to go to class!"

"Don't worry." Gjeon persisted: "We don't usually have so many games to play, and every game can be moved to the weekend."

"But we are not adults yet!" Cedric said desperately.

"Where's the guardian?" Gazeon looked eager to try: "I'm the best at persuading others. You may not know that the entire team is built by me now, and I'm the only one in the league without a team manager. team!"

There was a proud expression on his face, as if he regarded this as some kind of bragging rights.

Fortunately, the kind-hearted Professor Haimo made a timely move.

"You can wait and see." He said with a smile on his face: "You still have two college teams that you haven't seen yet - by the way, since you said that the entire team is now built by you, then the deal Is Quan also...?"

Harry and Cedric looked at the two figures walking away arm in arm. They turned their heads and exchanged looks with horrified looks on their faces - Could Professor Hemmer really sell them?

No one knows what kind of deal Professor Haimer and Gjen made, but in the days that followed, Gjen would often show up at Hogwarts, almost every day, except for eating in the auditorium , the place where the students saw him most often was the Quidditch pitch.

The other academy training team members have heard the news, and once Gjeon appears on the court, they will immediately pretend that they don't know how to play - once Gjeon appeared too suddenly, scaring Flint and hurriedly bumping into Aoao. Draco's screaming caused him to lie in the school hospital for several days.

"I said, if you really don't want to join, just say no to Professor Heimer."

In the corridor, Ron followed the sneaky Harry impatiently. Along the way, they had to check every stairwell in advance to avoid being discovered by Gjeon.

"But how should I speak." Harry lowered his voice and said, "Whether or not you want to join the team is one thing. The key is to attract that...that person who looks like my father. Before that, I couldn't Denial... I want to find him too.”

It was a real dilemma, as long as Harry wanted to find James, he had to attend every Chudley Cannons game, and who knew when James would come.

Relatively speaking, Cedric is much worse.

Harry and Ron stared silently at a figure that was much taller than them as they walked past. The figure picked up his backpack and held it in front of his head. He glanced forward quietly from time to time before continuing to walk forward.

A second later, the figure stepped back again.

Cedric asked suspiciously; "Is Gjeon here today?"

"Here he comes!" Hermione suddenly appeared from the stairs, startling the three of them.

"But he's watching Slytherin's training at the stadium now, so he doesn't want to disturb you." Hermione turned to Harry and Ron and said, "We should go, hurry up, we won't be able to catch up any later."

Today is the day for the trio to learn the Patronus, and the returning Lupine still assumes this responsibility.

Few people know about his transfer in the first half of the term, and Harry and the three are not included.Of course, Sirius didn't care to tell them, but Lupine thought that the fewer people who knew about it, the better, and there was no need to add trouble to a few children.

When the three of Harry came to the office of the Professor of Defense Against the Dark Cube, they found that Professor Lupine was trying to tame the flame bat of unknown origin.Surprisingly, Professor Haimer is also there, he is trying to convince Lupine: "Flame bats are difficult to tame easily, the best way is to find the soil where they live, and then rub it on your hands. They feel familiar."

Hermione, who was at the end, closed the door quietly, and Toby turned his head in time and said to them: "But the habitat of this flame bat—that is, the temple has been almost destroyed, no matter who it is, , I don’t even recommend that anyone go there to explore again, a chaotic ruin is very dangerous.”

Harry and the others had long known that this flame bat came from the temple that Professor Heimer had explored, and it was said that the scepter and the humanoid devil were also obtained from the temple.

Harry and Ron also saw the photo of Professor Haimer snatching Angela's scepter in front of the temple.

"It seems that it can only be locked like this." Lupine stood up and sighed. The flame bat writhed uncomfortably in the cage, and from time to time it bit a tooth mark. Ron grinned straight as if the tooth mark It appeared in his hand.

In fact, he had already begun to think so - the appearance of the Flame Bat here could not be an accident, and it was even less likely that Professor Heimer was just a coincidence. They all remembered that this flame bat was given to Harry by the person who was suspected of being James, but Harry was asked to leave after he was not allowed to stay for long.

This is completely in line with the rules. It is impossible for students to have such a dangerous pet in the school, not to mention that no one knows whether the so-called "James" is dangerous.

Now, the Flame Bat and the people who took away the Flame Bat are back.

The next lesson, shouldn't it be for them to deal with this fire crow bat?

The tragedy of the Pharaoh's mask is still deeply engraved in the hearts of the three children, as well as the mummified rooster...

"Children, there are temporary changes to the curriculum."

Lu Ping announced as soon as he came up, which made the three people's hearts skip a beat.

"About the Patronus Charm, I have already taught you everything I can, and all that remains is practice. However, Professor Haimer came to me today and said that he had another good idea."

The three of them silently looked at Professor Haimo, waiting for the other party to say what this good idea was.

"Don't be so sad." Toby saw through their thoughts at a glance and said, "Just considering your current progress, I think maybe you can use your time in more useful places."

schedule?

What progress can be made?

The three of them immediately lowered their heads obediently like students who have done something wrong.

They didn't make any progress in learning the Patronus, and Hermione managed to summon the silver smoke a few times occasionally, but nothing happened after that.

"It's not your fault." Toby said in a rare gentle tone: "The Patronus Charm is still too difficult for you, which is easy to understand, maybe you have to wait until the higher grades, it seems This year's final assessment also has to be put on hold."

"Huh?" Lupine turned his head and asked, "You were going to actually teach the students the Patronus Charm?"

"That's why I switched to the assessment of the Teachers' Appreciation Association later." Toby rubbed his chin and said, "Just wait for the Patronus to see if it's feasible next year."

"You should know that it's hard for even grown-up wizards to learn—"

"Listen, children."

Before Lupine finished speaking, Toby interrupted: "Then you have only one task, and that is to take good care of this flame bat and find out what secrets it hides."

Lupine shook his head helplessly and didn't say anything about Toby's decision.

But the trio was a little anxious, especially Ron and Hermione. They had always learned the Patronus Charm to help Harry solve the Horcrux problem. How could they stop suddenly now?

And what about Voldemort's problem?

Toby carried the cage and walked back to his office with the three people who were hiding a lot of problems. Al was lying on the flying carpet and dozing off. Two skeletons were pushing the flying carpet back and forth, somewhat like they were swinging. swing.

"I know you have a lot of questions for me."

After the door closed, Toby turned back to the three of them and said, "But now there are more urgent problems to solve, and..."

He turned his attention to Harry: "Have you ever thought about it, Harry, that making Horcruxes requires killing innocent people. If... I mean if, then the mysterious person finds your parents. That night, your parents were lucky enough to survive..."

"Then whose soul is hidden in your body?"

Harry opened his mouth in horror, and Ron and Hermione looked at Professor Hemmer in disbelief.

"Could it be that my mother also..." Harry asked with the last glimmer of hope.

"No." Toby didn't give Harry much time to rejoice. He shook his head and said, "There are no clues about your mother yet. This is just a guess. Now the guess has shifted to your father——Jen Tom Potter, one of the few insiders, we can only hope to get answers from him."

"Speaking carefully, this is the clue given to me by the person suspected of James himself - instead of rushing to see you at the celebration, he gave priority to meeting Black. Perhaps the friendship between them is very deep, but no matter Anyway, this seems too abnormal, as if he doesn't worry about you at all."

"But how could that be?"

Toby narrowed his eyes.

If James Potter really became Grindelwald's subordinate, how could he not know what Voldemort did to Harry?

On that night more than ten years ago, Toby now knew that it was Grindelwald who ordered Peter Pettigrew to reveal the secret.

So is it possible that the Potters had actually turned to Grindelwald because of this leak, and put on a good show for Voldemort?

In front of Grindelwald, who is so good at deceiving people, if he uses Harry's life to indirectly blackmail the Potters.

That doesn't seem impossible either.

But in this way, Harry's problem is somewhat uncertain.

Whose soul is hidden in his body?
