Peace and Friendship Hogwarts

"Harry!"

Cedric ran towards Harry from the Hufflepuff line.

"Cedric?" Harry stopped talking to Ron, "Do you want to see me for anything?"

Cedric smiled warmly, "Did you notice anything different about that golden egg?"

Golden egg?

Harry shook his head. He hadn't paid much attention to the golden egg placed in his dormitory lately.

"I haven't found anything special about that golden egg yet."

The Yule Ball with Draco, the soul fragment in his mind, and how to cooperate with Principal Dumbledore and their plans were all more important to Harry than the golden egg.

Cedric raised his eyebrows in understanding, lowered his head and approached Harry, "Take it to the bath for a soak, Harry."

"It will surprise you."

Harry raised his eyes to look at Cedric, who was extremely friendly to him, and thanked him sincerely, "Thank you, Cedric, I will do that."

Cedric probably knew the content of the second event of the Triwizard Tournament, and chose to tell him without hesitation.

This may be because he told Cedric that the first competition was about the fire dragon, so Cedric also told him the information about the second competition.

"You're welcome, Harry," Cedric smiled at Harry, "good luck to you."

"Thanks and good luck, Cedric."

Hermione and Ron watched Cedric turn around and walk towards the Hufflepuff team, then approached Harry from a short distance away.

"What did Cedric say to you? Harry." Ron curiously moved his head closer to Harry.

"He came to tell me how to discover the secret of the golden egg."

"Ah, Cedric is such a nice guy," Ron nudged Harry's shoulder.

"Yeah, I think so too." Harry nodded in agreement.

Cedric obviously could not tell him the secret about the golden egg.

But Cedric didn't do that.

"Harry, then hurry up and unlock the secret of the golden egg." Ron took Hermione's hand. "The second competition of the Triwizard Tournament will start not far away."

"I really hope that the second event of the Triwizard Tournament can be simpler. Merlin knows how shocked I was when I saw those fire dragons on the viewing platform!"

"It's a good thing you made it through safely, Harry."

Harry smiled and patted Ron on the shoulder, "Don't worry about me, Ron. I will solve the secret of the golden egg tonight."

"But I may not be able to go to Hogsmeade with you," Harry looked at Hermione and Ron apologetically, "I have something I need to see Principal Dumbledore."

"It's okay, go ahead, Harry." Hermione chuckled and waved to Harry.

Looking at Harry's walking back, the smile on Hermione's face also disappeared.

Harry is more responsible than before, which is a good thing.

But Harry was under greater pressure than before.

After arriving at Dumbledore's principal's office, Harry suddenly felt nervous.

"Headmaster Dumbledore, where has Professor Snape been?"

Professor Snape has not been at Hogwarts for four days.

"Would you like a cup of hot cocoa or pumpkin juice? Harry." Dumbledore raised his half-moon glasses and looked at Harry gently.

Harry pursed his lips and said, "A glass of pumpkin juice, Principal Dumbledore."

"This is a really good choice, Harry." Dumbledore took out a white porcelain cup and filled it with pumpkin juice.

The white porcelain cup filled with pumpkin juice was pushed in front of Harry, "What do you really want to ask me? Harry."

The pumpkin juice in the white porcelain cup was steaming with a faint mist-white heat, and Harry frowned slightly unconsciously.

Yes, what he wanted to ask was not where Snape had been during the past few days when he was away from Hogwarts.

What he wanted to know was whether Snape betrayed Principal Dumbledore...

"Professor Snape, is he a Death Eater? Principal Dumbledore."

A dark light flashed in Dumbledore's eyes. He was sure that in Hogwarts, no one except him and a few people who knew about it would know that Severus was a Death Eater. "Why would you?" I have a suspicion, Harry."

"I saw Professor Snape and the Headmaster of Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry before I spoke to you the night before the Yule Ball."

"The two of them seem to be plotting something about Voldemort."

In order to prevent himself from being discovered, Harry not only hid in a dark place where he could not easily be found, but also deliberately cast a disguise spell on himself.

The headmaster of Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry nervously pulled Snape's sleeve and asked Snape if that thing had summoned Professor Snape.

Harry didn't know what that thing in Igor Karkaroff's mouth was.

But he could tell from Snape's momentarily serious and angry expression that the thing was not going to be a good thing.

It wasn't until Igor Karkaroff asked Snape with trembling fear whether that person was resurrected that Harry suddenly understood what the two people hiding in the shadow of the carriage were talking about. matter.

Voldemort.

They were talking about Voldemort.

Igor Karkaroff?

Dumbledore narrowed his eyes slightly and asked why Igor Karkaroff suddenly claimed that he was not acclimatized and had contracted a serious disease. He needed to go back to recover first before coming back to watch the subsequent Triwizard Tournament. .

It turns out that Karkaroff was not ill, but escaped.

The fact that Voldemort might have been resurrected frightened Karkaroff, who was a Death Eater but betrayed other Death Eaters and betrayed Voldemort in order not to enter Azkaban.

In order to avoid being severely punished by Voldemort, Karkaroff chose to escape.

"Harry, you are right. Professor Snape, who teaches your Potions class, is indeed a Death Eater. Don't be so excited, Harry...I haven't finished speaking yet, but that was the past. Something happened."

Dumbledore poured himself a glass of pumpkin juice. "From the moment you became the savior of the wizarding world, Professor Snape became the father of Draco Malfoy."

"For what he wanted to protect, he left Voldemort's camp." Dumbledore slowed down his tone, as if he was caught in a brief memory.

"He's someone who stands on our team."

"Professor Snape also has something he wants to protect?" Harry was a little confused.

He knew that Draco's father betrayed Voldemort in order to preserve the Malfoy family and protect Draco's safety.

But, Professor Snape, what is it that he wants to protect?

It seemed to Harry that Professor Snape never cared about anyone or anything.

"Everyone has something they want to protect, Harry," Dumbledore looked into Harry's emerald green eyes and sighed softly.

Then if Professor Snape has always been their person, and Professor Snape has not betrayed Principal Dumbledore...

"Isn't Professor Snape in danger now? Principal Dumbledore."

"Why do you think that? Harry."

"I heard Mr. Karkaroff say that there is something in them that can make Voldemort summon them." Different from the frown just now, Harry now frowned a little worriedly.

"Harry, this is not something you should worry about now," Dumbledore chuckled at Harry, "The pumpkin juice is getting cold."

"Why shouldn't I worry? Although you are all preparing to fight Voldemort, but from another perspective, you are also doing it for me."

"Because I am the savior of the wizarding world."

"No," Dumbledore stood up and walked to Harry's side, "Harry, you put yourself first."
