The Lonely Dragon of Hogwarts

Fudge's face also didn't look good.

He had just said that there could be no problem with the fire dragon, but now he was slapped in the face.

He took two steps forward to say something more.

But John followed Snape out of the tent first.

After taking several deep breaths, Fudge suppressed his inner emotions and followed quickly.

The blonde's eyes also shone and she trotted after him.

The distance between the warrior tent and the fire dragon camp is not far.

It didn't take long for a few people to arrive at the location of the fire dragons.

At this time, many people have gathered here.

Not only the dragon trainers were there, but Dumbledore, Hagrid and other professors were also surrounding the fire dragons.

As soon as John and the others arrived, Norbert, the Norwegian Ridgeback, who was restrained by the dragon trainers with magic chains, screamed and struggled.

The dragon trainers also wanted to use magic to tighten their restraints, but Michelle ran over first.

"Noble!"

Michelle spoke and hugged Noble's huge head.

Norbert also calmed down instantly, and moved his big head in Michelle's arms, without any of the crazy look before.

Even though it was the second time I saw this scene.

But Charlie and the other dragon trainers were still a little surprised.

Hagrid was the only one at the scene who acted as if it were taken for granted. He even leaned close to Norbert, while touching the scales of the fire dragon, he choked and said:

"Good boy, good boy, it's okay."

On the other side, John and Snape had also arrived at Dumbledore's side.

"What exactly is going on?"

John said somewhat eagerly.

Hearing this, Dumbledore took a deep breath and turned his gaze to Snape.

"By using the [Scapin Revealing Curse] to analyze the blood of the fire dragon, I found that someone fed the Norwegian Ridgeback and the Ironbelly of the Kingdom with beneficial potions before the game."

Snape explained with a cold face, "This potion is not listed in the Potion Catalog. It is a brand new potion that has not been disclosed yet. Its dosage is not large and cannot be directly given to the fire dragon. Power. But it can stimulate the fire dragon's brain and nerves, enter a state of excitement, and ignore pain, allowing the fire dragons to increase their overall strength at the expense of doubling their own losses."

Moody, who had not appeared in public for a long time, also limped out of the crowd.

His magic eye wandered, observing everyone present.

And that naked eye was staring at John.

"I have more to discover."

As Moody spoke, he took out two steel needles that were dozens of centimeters long and showed them to everyone, "I found these two needles at the back of the heads of the Norwegian Ridgeback and the Black Ironbelly.

Someone deliberately inserted these two needles along the gaps in the fire dragon's scales, making them very concealable.

besides……"

Moody paused, took out his wand and pointed it lightly, and the two steel needles began to shake violently.

"You have also seen that as long as someone uses magic, these two steel needles will react." Moody said, "This will cause the fire dragon to suffer great pain, enter a state of madness, and launch attacks desperately.

This is a very vicious method. When I was fighting Death Eaters, I had seen some magical animals controlled by this method being used by Death Eaters to attack us.

But this is the first time I have seen it used on a fire dragon.

After all, creatures like fire dragons are not easy to control. The best they can do is make them go crazy and attack indiscriminately. "

"So this is all a Death Eater conspiracy!"

Fudge said viciously from the side.

After hearing this, everyone looked towards him.

Moody sneered and said:

"I didn't say that, I just said that I have seen Death Eaters use similar methods. In fact, there are many people who know this method, such as the Auror troops, and me!

According to this idea, not only the Death Eaters, but also the Auror troops and myself are all suspects. "

"Moody, what are you talking about!?" Fudge said hurriedly, "How could it be you or the Auror troops? You are all good people! Especially you, Moody, you are still a hero!"

"Hehehe-"

Moody laughed even louder, with a hint of sarcasm in it, "Good guys, bad guys, heroes and madmen, aren't these just how you define them?

The Ministry of Magic is the best at this kind of thing.

Just like I used to be a hero, but now I have become what you call a madman.

In other words, those Death Eaters who were called bad guys before turned into innocent good guys and were acquitted after your manipulations. "

Moody's ill will toward Fudge was barely concealed.

This made Fudge's breathing become heavier.

He was really going to be pissed.

It was obvious that he was not the Minister of Magic when the Death Eaters were first liquidated.

Why does everyone put the blame on him?

After trying hard for a while, Fudge finally suppressed the anger in his heart.

Because he noticed that it wasn't just Moody.

Most of the people present, including John, Snape, and Dumbledore, were staring at him.

Especially John and Snape.

The look between the two of them was terrifying.

Fudge even had a hunch that if he didn't handle it properly, these two guys might immediately go crazy and tear him into pieces.

This gave him goosebumps.

Soon, Fudge looked around at the crowd and said impassionedly:

"The Ministry of Magic will immediately dispatch Aurors to control all personnel related to this incident and conduct a detailed investigation! So, please rest assured, we will definitely get to the bottom of this matter and ensure that this Triwizard Tournament Proceed safely!”

"How do you plan to check exactly?"

Snape said slowly, obviously not trusting Fudge enough.

"About this," Fudge responded loudly, "Aurors will use the most professional methods!"

"Why don't you just use Veritaserum? I happen to still have some in stock in my office."

Snape spoke, his eyes fixed on the dragon trainers.

In his opinion, these guys who are most familiar with fire dragons and stay with them every day are the most suspicious.

Snape's gaze made Charlie and all the dragon trainers' expressions become extremely ugly.

But at this moment, Bagman was seen walking out of the crowd.

"In order to prove my innocence, I will be the first to accept the investigation. Even if it is truth serum, I am willing to drink it!"

Bagman said seriously.

Snape was not polite to him and dragged him towards the Potions office.

Upon seeing this, Fudge came up to dissuade him.

After all, Veritaserum has side effects. Drinking too much can easily turn you into an idiot. According to Fudge, it is more reliable to let the Aurors use [Legilimency].

The scene became a little chaotic for a while.

John, on the other hand, stared at everyone present with cold and suspicious eyes.

There is no doubt that this is a conspiracy against him and Michelle.

This has touched John's bottom line!

From this point of view, this conspiracy should be planned by the goblins.

But the problem is that when the first fire dragon project was going on, Dumbledore and a large number of staff were watching not far away.

They may sit back and watch as contestants get injured and lose during the event.

But when the players' lives are in danger, they will definitely take action.

In this case, there was no way the goblins could kidnap or kill John and Michelle.

But if this thing wasn’t planned by the goblins, who was it?

Death Eaters?

It is indeed possible that they participated in this Triwizard Tournament.

After all, Harry was also signed up inexplicably.

But even if the Death Eaters want to attack the fire dragon, they should also attack the fire dragon that Harry wants to deal with, right?

There is really no way to determine which fire dragon Harry will deal with, and the same method should be used against all fire dragons to ensure the success rate.

But the current situation is obviously that someone knew the order of the draw in advance, and then specifically targeted him and Michelle.

From this point of view, the Death Eaters should not be behind the scenes, but Bagman is very suspicious.

After all, he clearly told John that he cheated and adjusted the order of the Fire Dragon's draw.

But now Bagman has taken the initiative to say that he wants to be investigated by the Ministry of Magic, and is even willing to drink Veritaserum.

This also seems to mean that he has a clear conscience.

Could it be that there is a third force hiding in the dark in this Triwizard Tournament?

Or was it simply a case of stupidity on the part of the goblins or Death Eaters, who mistakenly targeted and attacked the target in the wrong way?

A large number of questions kept popping up, making John feel more and more irritable.
