Chapter 571 A Gathering of Death Eaters?
Hearing Dumbledore's words, Malfoy was dumbfounded. He froze in place, his brain in a state of overloaded shutdown.
Obviously he is a warrior, how could he suddenly become his father? !
That kind of feeling is like marrying a wife, the wedding is all over, and when the door is about to kick in the evening, Dumbledore, who presided over the wedding, tells Malfoy:
"This is your little mother—the wife of your father, Lucius—and your father is going into the bridal chamber."
Malfoy can't accept this kind of thing, even his own father can't rob his wife... Ah bah, rob a warrior!
The other teachers also leaned over and looked at the parchment that had been burned so that only the name remained, and it really said - Lucius Malfoy.
Everyone felt ridiculous for a moment, Lucius Malfoy had graduated for many years, how could his name come out of the Goblet of Fire?
Professor McGonagall wondered: "Did someone put his name in?"
Dumbledore immediately looked at Malfoy and asked calmly:
"Malfoy, did you drop your father's name into the Goblet of Fire?"
"No...no," Malfoy stammered, "I wrote my name."
No matter how stupid he was, it was impossible for him to write the name on the "marriage certificate" as his father's name.
But under the gaze of everyone, Malfoy suddenly became a little unconfident again. Could it be that he really wrote Lucius?
Karkaroff narrowed his eyes and seemed to have insight into everything. With a cold smile on his face, he sarcastically said:
"Hogwarts is going to let this kind of adult wizard who has graduated for a long time be a warrior to compete with my students?
In order to win, your school is really unscrupulous! "
"This kind of behavior is indeed unfair." Maxim echoed: "I will never let my students compete with this kind of wizard!"
"Of course we won't do that." Dumbledore said politely: "This matter will be investigated..."
Before the principal could finish his words, the flame in the Goblet of Fire turned red again, and then, a more dramatic scene appeared:
Seven or eight pieces of parchment, like bullets, shot out from the Goblet of Fire and fell into Dumbledore's hands. The old man stared at the scorched pieces of paper and read respectively:
"Holden Gower, Joey Crabbe, Amycus Caro, Alecto Caro, Sean Knott, Ada Avery Jr. …"
Karkaroff felt ridiculous at this moment, because those names were all his "old colleagues"!
For a moment, he suddenly felt that this was not a Triwizard Tournament, but a gathering of Death Eaters.
Moody realized this too, and he didn't speak, but let out a harsh smirk.
interesting!
If he had known that Hogwarts was so exciting, he would have retired earlier to become a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts. Isn't this more interesting than being an Auror in the Ministry of Magic? !
Snape stood at the back of the crowd, staring at everyone's expressions, trying to figure out who did the trick.
Draco Malfoy is definitely not possible, could it be Lucius... But he can't sneak into Hogwarts to do such a thing without being discovered by Dumbledore.
It couldn't be the Dark Lord himself, could it?
Or... Snape stared suspiciously at Dumbledore with a puzzled look on his face, his strange mood could not be explained clearly.
His intuition told him that this matter had nothing to do with this bad old man.
Many little wizards were stunned. The names and surnames of these people were very familiar, but Hogwarts seemed to have no such students.
At this time, sparks sputtered out of the Goblet of Fire after a moment of silence, and a long tongue of flame suddenly jumped into the air, holding a piece of parchment on it.
Dumbledore stretched out a slender hand and grabbed the parchment. He breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"It seems normal, the Hogwarts champion is—"
When everyone heard the words, they all stared at the principal intently, and he read aloud:
"—Rolf Scamander!"
Finally hearing the familiar name, the students all looked at the Hufflepuff table.
Every Hufflepuff was jumping up and down, screaming, stomping, congratulating Rove.
Rove stood up calmly, first glanced at Shirley and Hermione in the distance, and then exchanged a tacit glance with Dumbledore, and walked towards the distant room amidst applause.
He quickly passed through the crowd, pushed the door open, and entered the room.
The room was small, and only a few torches were lit, but the fire in the fireplace was also flickering, illuminating the room.
On the walls on both sides, there were still many portraits of wizards. Those faces all turned to look at Rove, and when they saw him walking in, they began to whisper quietly.
And the portrait left quickly, as if to inform others who the Hogwarts warrior was.
Krum leaned against the mantelpiece, bowed his waist and closed his eyes to rest. After seeing Rove, he was about to go up to chat with him, but Fleur had already walked past him one step ahead.
Furong walked over, she shook her long silver hair like a waterfall, and said happily:
"Rove, I knew that the Hogwarts warrior must be you."
"It's me, but it's not just me." Rove shrugged and sighed, "There seems to be some minor problem with the Goblet of Fire."
He quickly talked about what had just happened in the auditorium. Fleur and Krum looked at each other in disbelief after hearing this.
At this time, the door was opened again, and Shirley and Hermione walked in lightly.
Furong already knew that there was something wrong with the Goblet of Fire, so she tentatively asked:
"You two also became warriors?"
Shirley walked to Rove's side, nodded lightly and said, "Yes."
For a while, everyone fell silent, and the room fell into silence, but this silence didn't last long, and a large group of people pushed the door open and rushed in:
Professor Dumbledore, followed by Karkaroff, Maxim, Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape.
Harry and Ron were caught in the middle of the crowd.
Ludo Bagman said loudly: "It's too weird! It's absolutely too weird! There are so many warriors, and many of them have graduated for many years!
The Triwizard Tournament has been held for seven hundred years, is this the first time such a bizarre thing has happened? ! "
Madame Maxime straightened her tall body, her head touched the chandelier full of candles, and her huge breasts wrapped in black satin heaved violently.
"It's bizarre, so what the hell does that mean, Dumbledore?"
"I'd like to know too, ma'am," said Dumbledore, "but before discussing that, I'd like you to read this - I've just got it from the Goblet of Fire - but I didn't read it out in public for fear of causing confusion. .”
The professors leaned over, looked at the scorched note in Dumbledore's hand, and took a breath.
I saw that it was written on it:
Tom Marvolo Riddle!
