I, Hogwarts Week Two

Chapter 333 Follow-up—The End of the Goblet of Fire

"This is a serious matter. Dumbledore doesn't trust your people very much." Snape said calmly.

However, these words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire, and Crouch's anger became even greater.

"Pay attention to your identity Snape!" He looked at Snape coldly.

"Maybe you should pull up your left arm and see what's up there?"

Crouch took a step forward and forced Snape, "Someone changed the equipment of the competition. It's the portkey, right? We haven't found this person yet. Do you think I should doubt you?"

His cold tone seemed to spit out ice shards.

As expected, Snape didn't speak any more. He just stood aside indifferently, his eyes complicated, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Oh! Thank God! You are all alive." Professor McGonagall walked over from the entrance hall.

She had to keep the game in order after Dumbledore left.

In this way, even though she was very fast, she still came a little late.

"It's okay, everyone is still alive." Professor Sprout walked out of the little wizard.

"It's just Mr. Potter who suffered some superficial injuries."

Harry's arm was bleeding and everyone noticed.

Madam Pomfrey just used some fresh blood to cure him.

"There are two more—"

Professor Sprout was naturally talking about Qiu Zhang and Gabrielle.

The torture of the Cruciatus Curse is not that easy to endure.

Besides, it was performed by Voldemort.

The two of them had already fainted, even after they had just teleported back, thanks to Cedric and Krum's help.

Each of them carried one person.

"It's all right."

Professor McGonagall walked over anxiously, and she stretched out her hand tremblingly to hold her mouth. At this time, Madam Pomfrey had already finished checking the two of them.

"I just fainted. There are no injuries on my body. I just need a night's sleep. However, there may be some psychological shadow or sequelae of the war, which will take time to heal."

Hearing the sound, the little wizards and professors on the side all breathed a sigh of relief.

You must know that being tortured for a long time can destroy a person's consciousness. This is how Neville's parents went crazy.

Harry and Hermione knew it.

That's why Harry stayed in Azkaban so much just now. He wanted to do something to undo the pain he had caused others.

The guilt in his heart was like the water in a black lake. It looked calm on the surface, but there was already an undercurrent surging at the bottom of the lake.

"Very good!" Crouch finally looked away from Snape, "I have some questions to ask them."

He pushed over forcefully.

Indifferent eyes passed across the faces of all the little wizards present.

"No." Upon seeing this, Professor McGonagall immediately strongly protected the little wizards behind her, "They don't need to answer any of your questions!

It's just a bunch of kids, Mr. Crouch.

What they need now is rest and healing! "

"I need to know what happened - just now." Crouch remained unmoved. He still stood in front of Professor McGonagall indifferently.

He acted as if he would not get out of the way if Professor McGonagall did not allow him to inquire.

"Voldemort is back, stronger, and has captured Azkaban!" Harry shouted, staring at Crouch with anger in his eyes.

"Absurd, Azkaban has always been in the hands of the Ministry of Magic!"

"Believe it or not!"

"That's enough!" Professor McGonagall interrupted Harry sternly. She looked at Crouch and her tone became increasingly sinister, "Sir, this is Hogwarts, not your Ministry of Magic.

You have no right to ask any little wizard to do anything, they are not criminals!

Now, Pomfrey and Pomona, please send them to the school nurse room and take some sleeping potions so that they can have a good sleep. "

Hearing the sound, the two professors nodded, and then with the help of other professors, they led the little wizards out of the auditorium.

"As for other questions." Professor McGonagall's eyes were blazing, "When Albus comes back, you can ask him in person!"

With that said, the professor turned around and left the auditorium with the little wizards.

Mr. Crouch stood gloomily on the spot. Even though he was already furious, he did not do anything extraordinary immediately.

He's not that idiot Fudge.

McGonagall was right, he really had no right to ask the little wizard to do anything.This is not the Ministry of Magic, but Hogwarts.

Here, a minister has even less power than a professor.

The little wizard's awe for him was more of an instinct for the superior than any real respect for his position.

"Hogwarts—Hogwarts!" he muttered coldly.

His eyes fell on Professor McGonagall who was walking out of the auditorium.

"Don't you all study?" the professor in the auditorium shouted with a cold face, and then the little wizards who were watching all showed frightened expressions, and then quickly dispersed.

And the voice was very loud, obviously Professor McGonagall was not just talking to little wizards.

She was seeing off guests.

Barty Crouch naturally heard the implication of Professor McGonagall.

His eyes were sharp, and his mind suddenly recalled Umbridge's previous opinions.

Yes!

Yes! !

Hogwarts has been outside the Ministry of Magic for too long. The current headmaster is both arrogant and arrogant. He really needs to take action.

It's time to make Hogwarts part of the Ministry of Magic.

With this thought in mind, Mr. Crouch stepped forward without saying a word. With the support of several Aurors in the courtyard, his figure quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

As for the other people in the auditorium, they also left in their own right.

Today is bound to be a difficult day.

Regarding the sudden disappearance of Harry and the others, as well as the awakening of Owen, these two topics were enough for the young wizards to talk about all night long.

Until the end of the moon, otherwise their energy would not be exhausted so quickly.

the other side.

Owen did not wake up until the next day

Professor McGonagall really does what she says.

Under her instructions, Madam Pomfrey gave him a large gulp of the tranquilizing potion. Even if he had been asleep for several months, after a battle, he would not be sleepy at all. His body could not withstand the effect of the potion. !

But he was the first to wake up.

In the early morning, all the little wizards, including wizards from other schools, gathered in the auditorium.

"Good morning, Owen."

"Good morning!" he responded.

"Hey! You're alive!"

"What a blessing. I was able to wake up after being in a coma for three months."

"Good morning, Sanchez, you look much better."

Luna, Justin, Malfoy and Ernie.

Along the way, all the little wizards who met him greeted him.

Although everyone is full of curiosity.

But when they saw Owen, everyone smiled.

It was as if something important in the castle had returned.

The discomfort I had felt for three months suddenly disappeared.

The castle is back to normal.

Irving never expected that the reputation he had worked so hard for for four years would not be as much improved as the three months he was in coma.

Anyway, he walked into the auditorium surrounded by everyone.

He came here intending to find something to eat, and take some back to Miss Granger and the other little wizards.

Speaking of Miss Granger.

She really starved herself to skin and bones

This made him heartbroken. No matter what, keeping Hermione fat was an important thing next.

"Owen?"

"Wow! It's really Owen!"

"Oh yeah! We Hufflepuffs are going to rise again!"

<divclass="contentadv">"."

"Aren't you Hufflepuff always on the rise?"

"Tch - what Hufflepuff? It's obviously our Gryffindor who is rising! He has been our Gryffindor for a long time."

"Haha! It's almost as if your Granger is a Hufflepuff, but you are so shameless!"

"."

His appearance immediately caused a commotion in the auditorium.

There is no need to mention those who are traveling with him.

Although the other little wizards knew that he had woken up yesterday, they also saw him disappear with Harry.

But it was the first time in three months to see a living person so close.

Yesterday, many young wizards planned to sneak to the school nurse room, but before these people could step inside, Madam Pomfrey drove them back.

The twins also tried to pretend to be sick and tried to sneak into the school infirmary, but they were spotted by the sharp-eyed Madam Pomfrey in a second.

"Owen!"

Hannah ran over and stared at him blankly, then patted his arm and then his shoulder, as if checking whether his body was falling apart.

"He's so alive and kicking." Owen waved his hand and even joked, "I even grew a few inches taller after sleeping!"

Unfortunately, his joke didn't resonate with anyone.

Everyone was staring at him, Justin, Ron, and Luna.

Unconsciously, he has become the most important thing in people's hearts.No one expected him to actually leave.

"Go back and sit down!" He and Hannah sat back on the bench.

Then the little wizards around him started asking him various questions as if they were talking.

However, the commotion was quickly covered up by a crisp sound from the podium.

Only then did Owen notice that Dumbledore had returned.

There are other professors.

Gossips about yesterday had already spread widely in Hogwarts.

After all, the warriors and hostages were teleported away by the portkey in full view of everyone, everyone saw it.

And later the professors left in a hurry, which only aggravated their guesses - some bad guesses.

When Dumbledore appeared, all the little wizards' eyes were focused on him.

And Dumbledore.

He had absolutely no intention of hiding it.

He stood up slowly, looked around, and then told the little wizard exactly what happened yesterday.

Including: this is the Death Eater conspiracy, Voldemort became stronger and the fall of Azkaban.

In this regard, the little wizards at Hogwarts behaved - well - how should I put it - a bit bland.

They are used to seeing strong winds and waves and already have a high level of psychological defense.

Imagine these little wizards witnessing the peak battle between the legendary Ravenclaw soul, the witch named Lani, and the professor the year before last.

Last year, Death Eaters and Voldemort personally attacked Hogwarts and Hogsmeade, and the Minister of Magic died.

Now it's just that they heard about Voldemort becoming stronger and a Death Eater's conspiracy - they said this is not normal?

Voldemort has been back for a year, and he remains stronger. Has he become weaker?

What's all the fuss about.

Throughout this year, everyone has been going to school when it is time to go to school, and sleeping when it is time to do magic spells. The practice of magic skills has become more and more diligent.

This year's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is Moody. Although he is suspicious and has a very irritable personality, he is definitely not a teacher, but he does have real materials. He teaches based on the requirements of training Aurors. For little wizards.

This has allowed them to make rapid progress, arguably their fastest year in four years.

After all, a senior Auror's systematic teaching is much better than Sirius or Owen's cram school, which is half-baked.

However, this news is devastating to the young wizards from other schools.

Voldemort - known as the most powerful dark wizard in history, his reputation is known throughout Europe. Although the raging Death Eaters did not seriously affect the Owen country, the cruel and evil past of this legendary dark wizard, they Most of these young wizards who were born in the years after Voldemort's first fall have heard it.

And when the news that Voldemort returned and became stronger spread in the auditorium.

Suddenly, the entire auditorium became noisy.

Everyone chatted incessantly, and finally calmed down after Dumbledore said 'Quiet'.

Then he talked about another thing, the championship of the competition.

Yes, although the third game had some changes due to the Death Eaters' interference.

But the first half of the game is still complete. After all, the Death Eaters' conspiracy only ends after the young wizard touches the hostage and triggers the portkey.

Before that, the warriors still have to face the test.

And wasn’t there a warrior who finished the game?

Of course, the way she accomplished it was by knocking the hostage out of the water.

But no matter what, Hermione is the only warrior who successfully rescued the hostages. Combined with the previous two games, her game points are the highest.

It is undisputed to award the championship to her.

What follows are some cheesy words.

Dumbledore said in a heavy tone that the wizarding world is facing a huge crisis. Whether it is Hogwarts, Beaubaston, or other magic schools, other countries, and wizards from other continents should unite. , the danger is not just Voldemort, but also a more evil and dark conspiracy.

At this time of crisis, everyone should unite and work together. The wizarding world has been constantly divided and infighting since its history. He called on all parties to stop unnecessary disputes and use their energy to fight against evil.

Finally, he sincerely welcomed young wizards from other schools to stay until the end of the semester.

This will be an ice-breaker for friendship in the wizarding world.

But that’s what the scene said.

But in fact

Owen, who was sitting at the bottom, couldn't think of any friendship between them.

Their fight has never stopped for six months.

friendship?

mortal enemy!

At least Hogwarts and Ilvermorny have become mortal enemies.

For three months, the fights between them, big and small, never stopped.

The biggest one was the entire Gemini organization brawl.

The end result was that Gryffindor and Hufflepuff were all put into confinement.

These are all what Ron told him just now.

So it’s really not what Irving said. The competition strengthens communication between schools, but communication may not necessarily bear the fruit of friendship!

In history, when Europeans came into contact with Americans, did they produce any fruits of friendship?

It is true that contact leads to massacre.

But so far, Owen has no intention of dealing with the conflict between the two schools. That is Dumbledore's business and has nothing to do with him.

He was worried, but he vaguely heard Old Dengtou saying that he would hold an awards ceremony in a week.

Then, he waited quietly for dinner to begin.

After the food was served, Owen picked up his wand and emptied a section.

Then in the astonished eyes of the little wizards, they turned around and ran away.

------

Owen returned to the school medical room and found that the door had been opened.

He walked in quickly.

He had woken up to find Hagrid at Harry's bedside.

In other words, most of the little wizards have already woken up.Except that Hermione, who had been deliberately drugged by Madam Pomfrey, was still asleep.

"Crouch went too far. He dared to question Dumbledore."

As soon as Owen entered the door, he heard Hagrid angrily complaining: "He actually threatened Dumbledore and said he would remove him from the position of principal!"

"Oh my god! I think he's really lost his mind! He probably forgot that if Dumbledore hadn't supported him the year before last, he wouldn't have been the Minister of Magic."

"Huh? Dumbledore supported Crouch?" Harry said in surprise. His arms were bandaged and his forehead was also wrapped. Although he thought this was completely unnecessary, Madam Pomfrey would not listen at all. Going in, "I thought - but why would he question Dumbledore and replace him? Who else can be the headmaster of Hogwarts except Dumbledore?"

"Grindelwald?"

"." Hagrid glared at Harry, and Pott immediately shut his mouth knowingly. He knew that Hagrid didn't like dark wizards like Grindelwald, even though he didn't think Mr. Grindelwald was evil. On the contrary, most young wizards think that Mr. Grindelwald is simply cool. With his tough methods, unique temperament, and charming weathered figure, he is simply the perfect wizard imagined by teenagers.

They thought Dumbledore was too flashy in certain aspects, such as his clothing.

"This time in Azkaban, several Aurors were injured." Hagrid said impatiently, "This is not a big deal in the first place, Aurors! There are no injured ones, but Crouch blamed Dumbledore did not inform him in advance and did not reveal his plan for counterattack."

As he said that, Hagrid suddenly showed a mocking expression on his face, "He may have forgotten how perfect the security measures of the Ministry of Magic are. How many Ministry of Magic members were undercover when the mysterious man was at his peak last time? He Know better than me!”

Hagrid was slandered by the Ministry of Magic and thrown into Azkaban without trial. He knew those senior officials of the Ministry very well. They were all rotten people who acted according to the circumstances. If Dumbledore really Tell the truth about your plan, he can guarantee it!Rufus Scrimgeour (Head of the Auror Office) knew of the plan no earlier than You-Know-Who knew.

The intelligence agency of the Ministry of Magic is not necessarily much better than MI[-] in terms of counter-infiltration!

Anyway, they were all infiltrated into a sieve by others.
