HP: The Shadow Returns

The Slavs swooped down from a distance and took away the golden egg held by Sansaro. She flapped her wings and flew around in front of the five-person judges' seat.

Finally, amid cheers and cheers, the owl came to the Slytherin seat and gently placed the golden egg in Theodore's arms. The next second he was almost surrounded by the enthusiastic crowd.

“What a great game”

Dumbledore lowered his eyes and looked at Sansaro, who was very elegant in the center of the venue and gave them a noble salute.

The giant snake disappeared into an invisible crevice in the stone.

Moody, who was sitting in the viewing seat, had a hint of excitement flashing in the darkness of his eyes.

Everyone in the professor's chair had different expressions, but what was particularly exciting was Karkaroff's terrifying expression on the referee's seat, as if he had killed someone.

It can be seen that he feels extremely uncomfortable when he sees others being better than the children in his school.

Except for Karkaroff, the remaining four judges gave Sansaro high scores, and the reasons he gave were.

"This is not her own strength at all, just opportunistic!"

After he said this, Slytherin showed great hostility, and even Snape's expression turned dark.

But this still did not affect Sansaro being the one with the highest score among the five. When she came to the Warriors rest area, Cedric immediately stood up and congratulated her.

"This is fantastic, congratulations"

"You're doing just as well, Cedric."

Harry still had a dull expression. "It's incredible. How did those snakes appear?"

With a smile on her face, Sansaro stretched out her index finger and waved it left and right.

"It's a secret."

Although Furong's face was not pretty, she was not as arrogant as she was at the beginning. She clearly understood how powerful the girl in front of her who was three years younger than herself was.

She hasn't even shown her strength yet.

Bagman came down from the stage at this time and welcomed them into the tent again. After telling them the time of the next competition, he let them return to their academy.

Along the way, several people enjoyed the attention ceremony. As soon as Harry appeared, he was immediately surrounded by Gryffindors and carried away.

At night, everyone in the Slytherin lounge entered into a carnival. Red wine and snacks were placed on their tables, as if they were holding a small banquet, with stars surrounding Sansaro.

"There are still three months for the next competition. This time should be enough time to find clues." Astoria held the golden egg and recalled something with disgust on her face.

"Karkarov, he gave Krum full marks! That stupid guy even got half a golden egg smashed!"

Stupid big guy? Daphne listened to her sister's words, and her expression gradually became intriguing. Has Astoria forgotten how much she liked that "silly guy" at the beginning?

"Don't look at me like that, Daphne, isn't holding Blaise enough to divert your attention during the game?"

Immediately, Daphne's face turned red unexpectedly, and she was a little at a loss when facing everyone's teasing looks.

"um, I...."

The same goes for Zabini. The two of them sat side by side, looking like two steaming tomatoes.

"Where's Draco?" Daphne suddenly asked loudly when the topic changed.

"Me? What?" Draco raised his finger and pointed at himself, somewhat confused as to why the topic suddenly came to him.

"You and Astoria, you two went to the Quidditch World Cup together, didn't you? She also stayed at Malfoy Manor for several days."

"Oh, we...um..."

Draco pursed his lips and spoke a little stumblingly. Pansy seemed to already know what was going to happen. She accepted the reality and sat quietly in the corner without saying a word.

"Yes, I do like him." Astoria held the golden egg and raised her eyebrows without hesitation, "Just like Theodore likes Senior Sister Nasitan."

Sansaro nestled in Theodore's arms, and the two slowly met their eyes.

"Then he is really lucky in this life." Theodore glanced at the two of them, holding the girl in his arms and said without any trouble.

Draco's face was flushed pink, and his heart couldn't stop beating wildly as he looked at Astoria, who was smiling across from him.

He muttered awkwardly, "Okay, I admit... I quite like you too."

The atmosphere at the scene was filled with pink bubbles, and Daphne was surprised that the introverted little girl before coming to Hogwarts had turned into what she is now.

Bold, unrestrained, and charming.

"So? Blaise?"

The topic immediately turned to Zabini again. He raised his hand to smooth back his hair. At the same time, he also saw Daphne's expectant eyes, and inexplicable pressure filled his heart.

"I....."

He hesitated for a long time and couldn't say anything. Daphne's expression became a little disappointed. Seeing this, Sansaro directly interrupted the awkward atmosphere.

"Why don't we see what the next project leads to?"

"All right!"

Astoria glanced at Blaise, who instantly felt a chill in his back.

Fortunately, she didn't say any more. After placing the golden egg on the table, everyone's eyes were focused here.

As the golden egg was opened in front of everyone, a piercing scream came from inside. The shrill sound was as sharp as if it was about to penetrate their eardrums.

Sansaro frowned and closed it forcefully.

"Huh..." Draco covered his ears and gasped for breath, "What the hell is this? It won't let you fight with ghosts, will it?"

"Oh my God! This is more deadly than listening to Lockhart sing!" Daphne looked horrified and temporarily put away the bad emotions in her heart.

The sound reminded her of Lockhart's song of love when she was in second grade.

That would be a disaster!

“Looks like I’ll have something to do in the future.”

There was no unnecessary expression on Sansaro's pale face. She looked at the golden egg and raised her eyebrows slightly.

"However, the Yule Ball is about to start. You've heard the news, right?" Astoria rubbed her head and said.

"Yes, we need to prepare dresses and other things." Draco, who felt better, crossed his legs and asked the house elf to put the tea on the table. "Astoria, here you go."

"Thank you"

Sansaro took a small taste of the tea brought by Theodore and asked, "Dance?"

"Yes, plus the other two schools, this dance should be very grand," he explained, looking down at the girl's face.

"Oh..." She didn't show much interest in this. In contrast, the most important thing was to solve the secret of the golden egg first.

As for the dress, she believed Theodore would arrange it.

The next day, Sansaro was called to the office alone by Snape.

"The Christmas banquet is one of the traditions of the Triwizard Tournament. The warriors must perform the opening dance," the man informed expressionlessly.

"The dance is only open to those in fourth grade and above. Those in the lower grades who want to participate can only be invited."

"Okay, Professor, shall I inform them of the news today?" Sansaro watched Snape move his eyes and understood what he meant.

"I will notify them as soon as possible"

"One more thing." When Sansaro was about to leave, Snape stopped her. There seemed to be tangle and complexity in his eyes, "Your snake? How did it appear?"

"Professor is curious about this?" Sansaro bent his eyes, there was nothing wrong.

"It's nothing, just apparating."

The man stared at her and said nothing more for a long time, "Go ahead."

"Good professor" Sansaro respectfully closed the door and left.
