【HP】I don’t want to fall in love, I just want to mess around

The Triwizard Tournament ended in extremely chaotic circumstances.

Harry kept telling everyone that Voldemort had returned, and Cedric's coma caused everyone a lot of fear.

However, Cornelius Fudge, who was at the scene, insisted that Harry was frightened and was talking nonsense.

But compared to whether the mysterious man had returned, most people present were more concerned about whether Cedric was dead.

Esther saw Cedric's parents and his girlfriend Qiu Zhang rushing to their side with tears on their faces, looking anxious and nervous.

Dumbledore tried his best to comfort them, including Harry's emotions.

In the midst of the commotion, no one noticed that Esther breathed a sigh of relief. She slumped in her seat, feeling that her back was already wet with sweat.

Cedric and Harry, as well as the other two warriors who were unconscious in the maze, were all sent to the infirmary. Judging from the results, Harry or Cedric should have won this time, but no one mentioned it now. Something happened, and everyone was talking about what happened in the maze?

The Hufflepuff students were really worried about Cedric. The door of the infirmary was full of Hufflepuff students. They all wanted to know about Cedric, and some even started to pray for Cedric.

Esther was also among the waiting students.

Perhaps the mood changed too quickly. When everything settled, Esther felt dizzy, but she still gritted her teeth and held on, standing outside the infirmary with everyone.

Soon, Madam Pomfrey came out and asked everyone to go back and not stand outside all the time, but she stopped Esther.

"Esther, your face doesn't look good. Are you frightened and are you having trouble again? Come here quickly and I'll get you some medicine." Madam Pomfrey said to Esther worriedly.

Esther nodded silently and followed her into the infirmary.

There were many people in the infirmary. In addition to the unconscious Cedric and the frightened Harry, the Diggorys, Sirius and Dumbledore were all there.

When they saw Esther coming in, none of them showed any surprise, because their attention was not on Esther at all.

Madam Pomfrey brought a bottle of potion for Esther.

Esther had drank this potion many times during her recuperation, and it was bitter and unpleasant. She had to be mentally prepared every time she drank it.

But this time she didn't hesitate at all and drank directly.

"How is Senior Seid doing?"

After drinking the potion, she stepped forward and looked at the unconscious Cedric, and then at Dumbledore.

Dumbledore sighed slightly, looked back and said, "He was hit by the Death Curse, but miraculously survived, thanks to you."

Esther understood immediately: "It's that pendant, right? That pendant saved him."

"That's right." Dumbledore stretched out his hand and displayed a broken pendant in front of everyone: "It was this ancient magical item with extremely strong defensive power that saved Cedric's life, but it was also destroyed. "

Esther took the pendant that was broken into several pieces. She didn't feel distressed in her heart, but felt happy for it.

When she gave the pendant to Cedric, she wasn't really sure that the pendant could withstand the attack of the Death Curse. After all, the Death Curse was a generally recognized unsolvable curse.

But fortunately, God favored her in the end. Even if she sacrificed the pendant for it, it still saved Cedric's life.

Others didn't understand the twists and turns, and some words couldn't be explained clearly. Esther faced everyone's slightly confused looks and smiled slightly and said: "This pendant is a gift from my mother. I met Principal Dumbledore some time ago, and he recognized that my pendant had some magical powers and could bring luck to him, so before the start of the third game, I lent this pendant to Senior Ced, hoping that He can win."

She explained briefly, even in front of Dumbledore, she came up with a short story casually and wrote it very smoothly.

Cedric's parents were very grateful to hear Esther's explanation and kept thanking Esther.

However, although the pendant helped resist the attack of the Death Curse, this did not mean that Cedric was not harmed. His soul was still affected by some impact and he fell into a coma.

After Madam Pomfrey checked, Cedric's condition was quite difficult, so she proposed that Cedric be transferred to St. Mungo's immediately for treatment.

Dumbledore helped with the transfer. Before leaving, he said to Esther and Harry, "I might have to trouble you to wait for me here for a while. I have something to tell you."

Harry nodded obediently, indicating that he would be here waiting for his return.

Esther did not speak, but nodded slightly. She sat on the side a little exhausted, and the double-sided mirror in her arms felt hot. It was Draco calling her, but she was cruel and did not respond to his call for the time being.

Harry was telling Sirius what had just happened. He raised his arm and showed him his wounds to prove that he was not lying. Voldemort was really resurrected with his father's bones, the blood of his servants, and his own blood.

Sirius did not doubt that Harry would lie. He comforted Harry with a look of appreciation: "You did a great job. To be honest, you are braver than I thought. I am very proud of you Harry."

The godfather's praise made Harry smile, but he soon became sad again: "So all this is a conspiracy against me. I felt some clues early on, but I never took it to heart, and that's why I was so harmed." Cedric almost died."

"This is not your fault. You are also a victim. Don't put all the blame on yourself." Sirius comforted: "Besides, at least he didn't die, right?"

As he spoke, Sirius looked at Esther aside, with a hint of amusement in his eyes: "Speaking of which, it's all thanks to Miss Mayne this time. It was Miss Mayne who captured Peter Pettigrew last year."

Harry followed his godfather's gaze and looked at Esther. He lowered his head guiltily and apologized to Esther: "I'm sorry Esther, I was so carried away that I forgot what you calculated for me before the game started. Gua, if only I listened to you."

Before Esther said anything, Sirius had already curiously asked Harry what he said?

Harry said something about Esther's ability to read palms, and then Sirius looked at Esther with interest: "Really? What kind of palm reading can you really do?"

Esther didn't want to talk much. One side effect of the potion she just drank was that she would easily become sleepy after drinking it.

"Not only can I read palms, I can also read faces." Esther said casually: "This is a traditional divination method from the mysterious East."

"Really?" Sirius looked very curious. He came over and asked, "Then you might as well help me do the math?"

Esther turned away: "I don't want to help you figure it out."

Sirius asked reluctantly: "Why? Is it because I don't like the relationship between you and your little boyfriend? That's why you don't like me?"

Esther:…

If she had heard Sirius say this in the past, she would have jumped up and loudly retorted that she and Draco were innocent!

But now she really couldn't say what she wanted to say in return.

So I could only say stiffly: "What are you talking nonsense about?"
