[HP] Stranger things
Chapter 28 Good Night, Item 3
After entering March, the weather became clearer, but every time they came to the field outside, the bitter cold wind still made their hands and faces ache.The owls couldn't deliver the letters in time, because the wind always blew them off course.But even this cannot stop the enthusiasm of the students for mail ordering.
And the greatest joy for Hogwarts students is the love history about the savior on the Daily Prophet. Although it seems unreliable, it is more than enough to talk about after dinner, isn't it?But in contrast, the outside world may not think so.
Ann has seen owls send Granger howling letters, warning letters, and even some vicious things many times.Although the Hogwarts students didn't take it seriously, the person who sent these things can be said to be very excessive.She couldn't imagine that if there were no Savior and Granger this time, if it was Cedric, she would be like this.In the end, Ann chose to give Granger a practical handbook of spells and a bottle of fresh water.
"The undiluted balbo tuber has pus!" Ron's voice came through the Gryffindor table.Ann turned her head to see large yellow blisters appearing on Granger's hands.She wanted to say something, but felt that she didn't have the position, so she could only frown at Granger.
"Ouch!" cried Hermione, tears welling up in her eyes.She wiped the pus off her hands with a napkin, but her fingers were covered with thick, excruciating sores that looked like they were wearing thick, bumpy gloves.Granger ultimately chose to go to the hospital wing.
The Hufflepuffs who saw this scene were silent. Although they like gossip, they don't like the negative impact of this seemingly unreal gossip.
"These people are too much." Susan complained in a low voice.
Cynthia said unhappily, "The worst thing is the person who wrote this report." But they couldn't stop her from making rumors.Even Cedric could not approve of this approach.
Of course, the most important thing in front of them is Cedric's third match and the final exam that is a matter of life and death for them.Although the latter Cedric does not need to participate.
Entering June, the atmosphere in the castle became tense and excited again.Everyone is looking forward to the third race which will be held a week before the holiday.Cedric practiced with Ann whenever he was free. The two of them always cast spells on the edge of the Black Lake until they were exhausted until the magic power seemed to be exhausted. You know, the last time they did this was in the fourth grade. Inside the so-called fight club.The two of them have always been able to teach each other different spells, Ann more of the auxiliary spells, and Cedric more of the Defense Against the Dark Arts spells.The two of them occasionally practiced some attacking spells, but more of them learned from each other's strengths.
In the blink of an eye, it will be June 6th.Both Ann and Cedric looked more relaxed this time.After all, this is what they have learned all their lives.
Ann accompanied Cedric to have breakfast at the long table, and after a while, Cedric left the long table.And Fleur Delacour also stood up from the Ravenclaw table and walked into the meeting room with Cedric.After a while Krum slouched away too.Only Harry sat still.But just as he stood up and was about to walk in another direction, the door of the meeting room opened, and Cedric poked his head out.
"Harry, come on, they're waiting for you!"
Ann chose the library after breakfast.After all, she still has final exams.When reviewing the Potions class, An had already thrown herself into the arms of the Potions class.Although she studied potions so hard at the beginning just to get back the deducted points, but now she fell in love with potions.Even Professor Snape's hooked nose looks very amiable, and even the venom he sprays is very educational.Even the ambition to go to St. Mungo's was born of a love for the fascinating subject of Potions.
"Hey, Ann, I knew you were here." Cedric suddenly appeared and whispered in Ann's ear.
An raised her head in confusion, and saw Cedric's handsome face. The two of them looked at each other, and An knew what to do. They didn't know when they developed such a tacit understanding.She put away those books kindly and followed Cedric out of the library.
Although I had met the Diggory couple a long time ago, I was still a little embarrassed to see Cedric introduce her again so solemnly.The Diggory couple walked ahead holding hands, reminiscing about the old days at Hogwarts.Cedric and Ann followed behind holding hands, chatting quietly from time to time.
Dinner was bigger than usual, but Cedric didn't eat much because he was really nervous now.As the enchanted ceiling turned from blue to a dark purple twilight, Dumbledore stood up at the staff table and the crowd fell silent.
"Ladies and gentlemen, in five minutes I'm going to invite you all to the Quidditch pitch for the last event of the Triwizard Tournament. Now, brave men and Mr. Bagman, to the stadium."
Cedric stood up, the Hufflepuffs applauded him, and Ann squeezed his hand and gave him a smile.He walked out of the Great Hall with Harry, Fleur, and Viktor.
They entered the Quidditch pitch, which had become completely unrecognizable.A twenty-foot hedge bordered the edge of the field.There is a gap in front of them, and that is the entrance to this great labyrinth.The passage inside is dark and a bit scary.
Five minutes later, people began to enter the stands.Hundreds of students filed into their seats, and the air was filled with excited voices and chaotic footsteps.The sky is now a clear dark blue and stars are beginning to appear.Professor Sprout, Professor Moody, Professor McGonagall, and Professor Flitwick walked into the stadium, walking towards Bagman and several warriors.They all had bright red stars on their hats.
"We will patrol outside the maze," Professor McGonagall said to the warriors. "If you encounter difficulties and want to be rescued, just shoot red sparks into the sky, and we will have someone to help you, understand?"
The warriors nodded together.
"Okay, let's go!" Bagman said happily to the four patrol members.
"Good luck, Diggory." Professor Sprout whispered to Cedric with the same gentle smile as before.Four people walked away in different directions, distributed around the maze.Then Bagman pointed his wand to his throat and said "loud voice", and his magically amplified voice echoed in the stands.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the final match of the Triwizard Tournament is about to begin! Let me report the current score! Cedric Diggory and Harry Potter - 85 points, tied for first place , Hogwarts School!" Applause and cheers startled the birds of the Forbidden Forest into the darkening night sky. "Victor Krum - 80 points, No.2, Durmstrang College!" There was another burst of applause. "Fleur Delacour——No.3, Beauxbaton College!"
Cedric looked nervous, but also very happy.Ann waved to him happily, and Cedric also waved to her with a smile.The girls around Ann immediately let out a sound of surprise.
"Now, Harry and Cedric, listen to my whistle!" said Bagman. "Three-two--"
With a short whistle, Harry and Cedric hurried into the maze.
The tall hedges cast black shadows on the path, and whether it was because of the height and density of the hedges, or whether by magic, the voices of the spectators fell silent as soon as they entered the labyrinth.Cedric drew his wand and said, "Lumos," and Harry did the same.
After walking about 50 meters, they came to a fork in the road, and they looked at each other.
"Goodbye," said Harry, and he took the left one, and Cedric took the right one.
Bagman's whistle sounded again, and Krum entered the maze.
Cedric turned around in the maze, which was much bigger than he thought and much larger than it looked from the outside.Bagman's third whistle sounded in the distance, saying that all the warriors are in the maze.
The labyrinth was getting darker every minute, and the sky above turned dark blue.He came to the second fork in the road.
The road ahead was still empty, and at a right turn, Cedric turned in. It was a huge snail, which didn't look like much to mess with. It even had a hard shell. Reaching him, the Whelk pounced on Cedric, spewing sparks that nearly ignited Cedric's clothes. "Bones to pieces!" The spell hit the thick shell of the snail, and was bounced back.Wipe his sleeves.
"There are many obstacles!" This spell hit the belly of the Blast-tailed snail, which can be regarded as having a little effect.Cedric turned and ran.Cedric hurried out from a path on the right, and saw Harry in front of him with a blank face.Cedric looked flustered, and smoke was smoking from his sleeves.
"Hagrid's Blast-Ended Whelk!" he hissed. "It's huge—I managed to get out!"
Cedric shook his head and sprinted off the other way, intent on throwing the Whelk farther away.Just as Cedric was wandering around in the maze, a sudden scream broke the silence around him.
The voice should be Fleur Delacour.But Cedric didn't know the direction, and he didn't know how to help, so he could only keep wandering.
There was someone behind, Cedric's intuition told him, and he turned and saw Krum pointing his wand at him. "What do you want?" cried Cedric. "What do you want?"
However, Krum didn't answer him, but threw out a spell directly: "Crucio!"
Suddenly the air was filled with Cedric's screams.Cedric fell to the ground, twitching, and Krum was looking down at him.Harry emerged from under the bushes.
Harry stood up, pointing his wand at Krum.Krum looked up and saw it, turned and ran away.
"Swoon!" Harry yelled.
The spell hit Krum in the back.He stopped suddenly, threw himself forward, and lay face down on the grass, motionless.Harry rushed to Cedric's side.He had stopped convulsing and lay panting, his face in his hands.
"Are you all right?" Harry asked hoarsely, grabbing Cedric's arm.
"It's all right," Cedric gasped, "it's all right, I can't believe it, he sneaked up behind me, I heard it, turned around, and he pointed his wand at me..."
Cedric stood up, still shaking.They looked at Krum on the ground.
"It's unbelievable, I thought he was pretty good," said Harry, staring at Krum.
"Me too," Cedric said.
"Did you hear Fleur's cry?" Harry asked.
"Got it," said Cedric, "do you think Krum did something to her, too?"
"I don't know," Harry said slowly.
"Leave him here?" Cedric asked softly.
"No," said Harry, "I think we should fire red sparks and have him come and get him off, or he might get eaten by a snail."
"He deserves it," Cedric muttered, but he raised his wand anyway, sending a string of red sparks into the air.Sparks surrounded Krum, marking his location.
Harry and Cedric stood for a moment in the dark, looking around.Then, Cedric said, "Well, I guess we'd better keep going..."
"Huh?" said Harry. "Oh, yes, yes."
It was a really weird moment.Harry and Cedric had temporarily united because of Krum, and now the fact that they were rivals came back to their minds.The two walked in silence down the dark path, then Harry turned to the left and Cedric to the right.Cedric's footsteps soon died away.
Just after Cedric tackled a red hat, he saw a distant light.The Tri-Wind Cup shone seductively on the base 100 meters away.
Cedric was ahead of Harry, who was sprinting full speed towards the trophy.And Harry knew he couldn't catch up anyway.Cedric was much taller and had longer legs.
Then Harry saw something huge over the hedge on the left, moving so fast this way along a crossing of roads, that Cedric was about to crash into it, but Cedric was so focused on the trophy that he didn't see it. .
"Cedric!" Harry yelled, "watch out to the left!"
Cedric turned and saw it, dodged hastily, and avoided colliding with the thing, but the movement was so violent that he fell.Harry saw Cedric's wand fly out, and a huge spider crawled over and bent down on Cedric.
"Dizzy!" Harry yelled, and the spell hit the spider's huge, black, hairy body, but it was like throwing a stone at it.The spider twitched, turned quickly, and rushed towards Harry.
"Passed out! Obstacles! Passed out!"
It didn't work, maybe the spider was too big, or its magic was too powerful, and the spell didn't work on it, and instead irritated it more.Harry saw with horror the eight gleaming black eyes and the sharp pincers, and the spider had already landed on him.
The spider lifted him into the air with its front legs, and he struggled desperately.He tried to kick it with his foot, but his legs touched its pincers, and there was a sharp pain immediately.He heard Cedric yelling "Swoon!" too, but his spell didn't work either, and the spider opened its pincers again, and Harry raised his wand and yelled "Expelliarmus!"
It worked, the disarming spell made the spider let him go, but it meant Harry fell from a height of three metres.His injured leg couldn't bear the weight of his body, and he collapsed to the ground.Without thinking, he pointed his wand at the spider's underbelly, as he had done to the snails, and yelled "Swollen!"Cedric uttered the same incantation.
The combination of the two spells did what the one spell couldn't: the spider fell sideways, crushing a hedge, its long, hairy legs sprawled across the ground.
"Harry!" he heard Cedric cry, "are you all right? It didn't fall on you?"
"No." Harry called out breathlessly.He looked down at his leg, bleeding profusely.There was something sticky on the torn robe, which was secreted from the spider's pincers.He tried to stand up, but his legs shook so badly that he couldn't support the weight of his body.He leaned against the hedge, panting, and looked around.
Cedric stood just a foot away from the Triwizard Cup, the trophy gleaming behind him.
"Take it," Harry gasped to Cedric, "take it, you've arrived."
Cedric didn't move.He stood there looking at Harry, then back at the trophy, and Harry could see the longing look on Cedric's face in the golden light of the trophy.Cedric looked back at Harry, who was barely standing up against the hedge.Cedric took a deep breath.
"You take it, you deserved to win. You saved my life twice."
"That's not the rule," said Harry.He was annoyed, his leg was hurting so much, and now he was hurting all over trying to get rid of the spider, and after so much effort, lost to Cedric again. "Whoever comes first scores, you go first. I'm telling the truth, I can't run a race with this leg."
Cedric took a few steps towards the unconscious spider, away from the trophy.He shook his head.
"Do not."
"Stop being in style," said Harry impatiently, "take it, we can get out."
Cedric saw Harry clung to the hedge to steady himself.
"You told me about the dragons," said Cedric, "and if you hadn't warned me, I would have been knocked out of the first event."
"I got help first," said Harry irritably, trying to wipe the blood from his legs with his robes. "You told me the secret of the golden egg, and we're even."
"It was also someone who helped me first," Cedric said.
"We're still even." Harry carefully tested his injured leg, which shook violently as soon as he put the weight on it, and he sprained his ankle when he was thrown by the spider.
"You should have scored higher on the second item," Cedric said stubbornly. "You stayed behind and rescued all the hostages. I should have done that, too."
"I'm the only one who was stupid enough to take that song seriously!" Harry said angrily, "Get the trophy!"
"No," said Cedric.
He stepped over the tangled spider legs to Harry's side.Harry glared at him.Cedric is serious.He was giving up an honor that Hufflepuff House had not received for centuries.
"Go ahead," said Cedric.It looked like it took all his willpower to say that.But his expression was firm, and he folded his arms, as if he had made up his mind.
Harry's eyes moved to the trophy.In the light of the trophy, he was in a trance for a moment, as if he saw himself walking out of the maze holding it.He raised the tri-wild cup aloft, hearing the cheers of the crowd; he saw Qiu's face brimming with admiration, more clearly than ever.Then the hallucination passed, and he saw Cedric's stubborn face in the gloom.
"Let's go together," said Harry.
"what?"
"Two people take it at the same time, and Hogwarts still wins. We are tied for the championship."
Cedric glared at Harry and let go of his arms.
"You—really want to?"
"Of course," said Harry, "of course we helped each other get through it, didn't we? The two of us got here together, let's go get it together."
For a moment Cedric seemed unable to believe his ears, then he broke into a smile.
"Listen to you, come on."
He grabbed Harry's arm and helped Harry limp toward the trophy.When they got there, the two each raised their hands above a shiny handle.
"Count to three, will you?" Harry said, "One-two-three-"
He and Cedric each grabbed a handle.
Suddenly Harry felt as though he had been pulled at the back of his navel.His legs were off the ground, but he couldn't let go of the Triwizard Cup, which dragged him forward amid howling winds and swirling colors, Cedric beside him.
The author has something to say:
Part of the description of Cedric in the game comes from the original book
After thinking about it, let’s post it today qaq Let’s talk about tomorrow’s matter
Thank you for the cute nutrition solution!

"Of course," said Harry, "of course we helped each other get through it, didn't we? The two of us got here together, let's go get it together."
For a moment Cedric seemed unable to believe his ears, then he broke into a smile.
"Listen to you, come on."
He grabbed Harry's arm and helped Harry limp toward the trophy.When they got there, the two each raised their hands above a shiny handle.
"Count to three, will you?" Harry said, "One-two-three-"
He and Cedric each grabbed a handle.
Suddenly Harry felt as though he had been pulled at the back of his navel.His legs were off the ground, but he couldn't let go of the Triwizard Cup, which dragged him forward amid howling winds and swirling colors, Cedric beside him.
