Chapter 192：

"Hey, it's not because I'm at the bottom of the lake," Hermione stuck out her tongue, looking embarrassed, and said coquettishly, "Anyway, there is no one else at the bottom of the lake. The three of them didn't see me becoming a dragon with their own eyes. If they find out, they will also think that it is just a wild dragon, so it's OK this time."

The girl shook Ye Ting's hand constantly, as if she would never give up if she didn't agree.

"Okay, okay," Ye Ting couldn't help Hermione, so he turned to look at the mermaids.

"You won't tell Dumbledore what you just saw?"

The mermaids shook their heads, they didn't dare to do so. How terrifying is a wizard who can become a dragon? Just now, when the silver dragon appeared, the mermaids said that their entire tribe would be finished.

Hermione was not surprised that Ye Ting could speak murloc language. After she saw the hostages, she asked Ye Ting curiously: "As long as I bring Zhang Qiu back to shore, I will finish the game, right?"

"Yes."

"It seems that I am the first to finish the game, and I can find the way by following the sound." The girl nodded in satisfaction, and then swam to the hostages briskly.

The hostages were all **** with ropes made of thick water weeds. The girl used magic to break the water weeds that tied Zhang Qiu, and then took her upstream, and soon disappeared.

The second one who came here was Fleur. In the original book, she happily met many Grindillos and ultimately failed to complete the game.

Although the bubble head curse is a spell that allows people to breathe underwater, it has no combat power itself, and many wizards are not used to casting spells underwater, which leads to a sharp drop in combat power in the water.

In contrast, Krum’s method is much more useful. As long as he can hold back his mouth, his shark head is invincible against Grindillo.

but. This time he had good luck. It should be said that the other three warriors had good luck, because because of Hermione, Grindillo, who was originally a distraction and danger, was scared and ran away, and the remaining two or three were not enough to stop these warriors.

After Gabriel was taken away by Fleur, Harry and Krum also found this place one after another. However, perhaps because his head turned into a shark, Krum’s IQ seemed to be affected. He would only be against him. The rope on the friend’s body was pulled and bitten. The problem was that Krum’s shark teeth had a strange structure. He was very awkward to bite anything smaller than a dolphin, and he was not careful, and he was about to tear the boy in half. NS.

However, in the end everyone recovered their treasures within an hour.

Ye Ting was the last one to return to the shore. Madam Pomfrey made a fuss around them. She prepared blankets for everyone, and forcibly poured a hot potion into their mouths, and the heat immediately came out of them. The ears of the warriors and hostages popped out.

Dumbledore was squatting by the water and was talking closely with the older mermaid. He could also speak mermaid language. Upon seeing this, Hermione immediately looked at the mermaid threateningly. In the end, the mermaid did not say everything about the dragon. .

After listening for a while, Dumbledore stood up straight and turned to the other referees, and said, "I'll meet up and score again."

Item 0267

The discussion lasted for a long time, and then, Ludo Bagman’s magically amplified voice suddenly sounded, startling the audience in the stands and calming them down.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we finally made a decision. Mermaid leader Mercus told us what happened under the lake as it was, and we decided to give the warriors a score of 60 points based on the following... "

"Florence Delacour has shown an excellent use of the Bubble Head Charm, and we gave her 57 points."

There was a round of applause from the stands.

"Harry Potter used branchial sac and achieved amazing results." Bagman continued, "He is the third to return. We give him 55 points."

"Vektor Krum used Transfiguration. Although it is incomplete, it is still effective. He was the last to return with a hostage. We gave him 50 points."

Karkaroff slapped his hands particularly vigorously, with a triumphant look.

"Miss Hermione Granger did not use any spells. We have not yet figured out how she moves freely in the water. Moreover, the mermaid leader told us that they had not seen Miss Granger in the water either. The hostage was rescued somehow. But she was the first to return with the hostage. Therefore, we gave her 57 points." The Ravenclaw students in the crowd cheered enthusiastically, their voices deafening.

Even the professors cast strange glances at Hermione.

No way, Hermione did set a record. From the beginning of the first game to the present, all the referees and spectators have not seen what method she used to complete the game, and she has not even recited the spell.

"The third and final project will be carried out on the evening of June 24," Bagman continued. "The Warriors will learn about the details of the project one month in advance. Thank you for your support to the Warriors."

After the second project was over, the most wonderful thing was that everyone was eager to know what happened under the lake, which meant that Ron, like Harry, became the center of attention for the first time in his life. Harry noticed that Ron told the story over and over again, each time slightly different. At first, what he said was true-in Professor McGonagall's office, Dumbledore used magic to hypnotize the hostages, and first assured them that they were absolutely safe and would wake up as soon as they came out of the water.

However, a week later, Ron told a thrilling story of kidnapping, telling how he fought with fifty heavily armed merfolk with his bare hands. They had to force him to submit before binding him.

However, compared to him, Harry looked a lot embarrassed. In people's mouth, Ron became his most beloved baby, and everyone made fun of him all day long.

After entering March, the weather became clearer, but every time they came to the field outside, the biting cold wind still blew their hands and faces aches and pains, but Harry realized that it was related to him and Ron. Rumors about the relationship suddenly began to spread widely.

One afternoon, he went to the last class-two consecutive potions class, and found that Malfoy, Crabbe, and Gore were standing outside the classroom with the gang of Slytherins headed by Pansy Parkinson. Together. They were all looking at something and giggled happily one by one. Harry and Ron, Pansy's fox face protruded from Gore's fat back in excitement.

"They're here, they're here!" she giggled, and the bunch of Slytherins dispersed. Harry saw a magazine in her hand-"Witcher Weekly". The activity photo on the cover is of a red-haired boy, grinning, showing her mouth full of teeth, and pointing her magic wand to a large sponge cake.

"You will find something you are interested in, Weasley!" Malfoy said loudly, throwing the magazine to Ron. Ron reached out and took it, looking a little panicked. At this moment, the door of the underground classroom opened and Snape greeted everyone to enter.

As soon as Snape turned to write on the blackboard the ingredients for the potion to be made today, Ron hurriedly opened the magazine under the table. Finally, he found what they were looking for in the magazine. Harry leaned in too. Below a color photo of Harry, is this short essay:

Harry Potter's Secret Love History

He may be a different boy-but he also experiences the pain that youthful boys often have. Rita Skeeter reports. After the loss of his parents, the fourteen-year-old Harry Potter thought he was finally at Hogwarts, on his friend Ron Weasley from the family of a pure blood wizard. However, Such feelings have gone even further with the passage of time.

Mr. Weasley was a mediocre but ambitious boy who seemed to have a soft spot for famous wizards. However, the friendship with Mr. Potter could not be satisfied at all, so their friendship soon moved closer. A delicate relationship that transcends friendship has been brewing between the two boys...

I have never seen such a close relationship between the same sex. In the second game of the Triwizard Tournament, Ron was even selected as Harry's baby, trapped in the bottom of the lake waiting for his rescue. The love and care for close friends made Harry explode with potential beyond his own level and even retrieved his treasure before Krom.

"This nasty guy knows to make rumors," Ron complained to Harry beside him, "He should know that the hostages of the four warriors are all of the same **** as the warriors, are they all what she said... ...Is it related?"

"This woman is staring at me." Harry whispered. "She can't provoke Krum, afraid of his violence, nor can she provoke Fleur and Hermione, because they have a good relationship with Ting Ye, so she found On my head."

"If the woman at the Christmas party knows about it," Ron said, and there was a cold war. "The two of us will be done. This matter—"

"Mr. Weasley, although your social life is colorful," a cold voice suddenly came from behind, startling all three of them, "but I must warn you not to whisper in my class. Grid Lanffindor deducted ten points."

Snape quietly walked to their table while they were talking. The whole class looked back at them.

"Huh... still hiding under the table and reading a magazine?" Snape said again, grabbing the "Witcher Weekly". "Gryffindor deducts ten more...but, of course..." Snape's gaze fell on Rita Skeeter's article, and his black eyes suddenly appeared. "Potter needs to collect newspaper clippings..."

The laughter of the Slytherins was coaxing in the underground classroom, and Snape's thin lips twisted, revealing an ill-intentioned smile. To Harry's great annoyance, Snape actually read the article aloud.

"The secret love history of Harry Potter... Oh my god, my god, Potter, what's wrong with you? He may be a different boy..."

Harry felt feverish in his face. Snape paused after each sentence, making the Slytherins laugh enough. This article was ten times worse after Snape's mouth. Now, even Ron's face was flushed.

Item 0268

"You have become the center of media attention, which seems to have made your accidental head more inflated, Potter." Snape said softly when the other students in the class were quiet.

Harry didn't answer. He knew that Snape wanted to tease him and anger him, which Snape had done before. Needless to say, he was trying to find an excuse to deduct more than fifty points from Gryffindor before the end of get out of class.

"You probably assume that the entire magical world is marveling at you," Snape continued, his voice was so soft that no other classmates could hear him, "but I don't care how many times your photo appears in the newspaper. Well. In my eyes, Potter, you are just a nasty little boy, but you think you can ignore all the rules and regulations."

Harry's hands trembled slightly with anger, but he kept his eyes lowered, as if he couldn't hear what Snape said to him.

"Therefore, I want to give you a kind warning, Potter," Snape said in a softer and more sinister voice, "although you are famous—if I find you breaking into my office again—"

"I've never been near your office!" Harry said angrily, putting aside what he had just pretended to be deaf and dumb.

"Don't lie to me," Snape said in a low voice, and those unfathomable black eyes glared at Harry's. "African tree snake skin. Glycosa. Both are in my private storage. I know who stole it."

Harry stared at Snape without showing any weakness. He was determined not to blink his eyes or show a guilty conscience. To be honest, he didn't steal these two things from Snape. They took African tree snake skin in the second grade—they needed it to make a compound decoction—and Snape suspected Harry at the time, but there was no evidence. As for the branchial grass, it was stolen to him by someone else.
