Chapter 392
After Valentine's Day, students still have to attend classes obediently no matter how reluctant they are.
I heard that Filch caught a lot of wild mandarin ducks in the garden last night, which made many people resentful today.
At noon, there was news that he suddenly slipped and broke his bones.
I don't know which hot-tempered brother did this.
Wayne was still slacking off like nothing happened, but Sakura secretly watched him no less than twenty times during just lunch.
Each time she finished watching, she would smile silly, and Tomoyo beside her shook her head helplessly.
But at the same time, she was also curious about what the two of them talked about last night, and Sakura became silly after coming back.
She asked for details, but Sakura didn't say anything, and she had been smiling silly all night.
Who can understand, she could laugh even when she was sleeping at night, and she was so scared that she thought Sakura was possessed by evil spirits.
Evening.
Harry arrived at the cram school on time with the golden egg in his arms.
Soon, a ball of fire appeared in the room. The Phoenix King did not appear, and he threw the Niffler out directly.
"Damn Lawrence, can't you let your bird be a little polite!" Grindelwald cursed, and a ball of fire fell from the sky, almost turning him into a roasted Niffler.
Seeing this scene, Harry wanted to laugh, but he held back.
Mr. Guy taught him a lot of useful knowledge and spells, and he must be respectful.
But Harry still felt a little confused: "Mr. Guy, why don't you come to Hogwarts in person? Wouldn't it be troublesome to possess this Niffler every time?"
He had never seen the other party's true body, but in Harry's imagination, Mr. Guy must be a knowledgeable and powerful wizard, just like Dumbledore, a good man.
I don’t know if those wizards who died in the First Wizarding War would be so angry that they would come back to life after knowing his evaluation of Grindelwald.
“It’s troublesome for me to come here.” Grindelwald said lightly: “You will see me when you have a chance in the future.”
“Okay.”
Harry felt a little regretful when he saw Grindelwald refused, but he didn’t dwell on it.
He placed the golden egg on the table and asked in a low voice expectantly: "Mr. Guy, do you know about the Holy Grail War?"
Grindelwald said casually: "Yes, isn't it just a toy made by Lawrence?"
"It's good that you know." Harry was overjoyed, "This golden egg is the reward I won in the first round of the game. I have studied it for a long time and didn't find the secret inside. Can you help me?"
"Boy, you are cheating."
"Didn't you teach me?" Harry pretended to be stupid and said: "Use all the power you can use to help yourself achieve your goal."
"You are not a professor, nor a referee, and you don't belong to any school. I am looking for you and looking for my classmates. Everything is for the greater good. I should have done nothing wrong, right?"
ListenAfter Harry's quibbling, Grindelwald was not angry, but laughed.
"I have taught you for a month, and you have finally made some progress."
Compared to the silly boy at the beginning, Grindelwald felt much more pleasing to the eye now.
Unlike Newt, in fact, this boy has always had a sense of resentment in his heart. He felt that he saw the shadow of Dumbledore when he was young in Harry.
Although he is a little dumber and his talent is a little worse, but this little temper, haha.
Similar, too similar.
You know, Dumbledore used to be not as concerned about his family as he is now. He hated his younger brothers and sisters for being noisy, and often locked himself in the attic to write letters to those contemporary magic masters. He was ambitious.
Instantly, Grindelwald felt much more pleasing to the eye of Harry.
"I will help you this time, but if you want me to help you next time, you will have to pay a price."
Grindelwald did not want to be Harry's nanny, and would only make some deals with him.
"No problem." Harry nodded repeatedly, and then opened the golden egg.
The piercing sound appeared again. Grindelwald only listened for a second, then jumped up and closed the golden egg.
"This is the language of mermaids."
"Mermaids?"
"That's right."
"The mermaids' singing in the water is extremely beautiful, but when they come to the shore, they become sharp and piercing. I am not an expert in this area, and I didn't hear it clearly just now."
"If you want to understand, just put the egg in the water and open it."
Harry was overjoyed and immediately put the egg away, preparing to go back and try it in the evening.
Grindelwald continued: "Since the egg contains the voice of mermaids, I guess your next competition item will also be related to mermaids and water."
"Just right, today I will teach you a few spells that can be used in water."
Harry nodded repeatedly.
Soon, an hour passed, and Grindelwald was taken away by the Phoenix King again.
He taught Harry two very useful spells in the water. Whether he could learn it or not depended on whether Harry worked hard in the past few days.
After leaving the classroom, Harry returned to the dormitory holding his golden egg.
After everyone fell asleep, he got into the bathtub in the bathroom again.
Harry took a deep breath, got into the water holding the egg, and then opened it, and heard a strange voice singing from the golden egg:
[Look for us, where our voices sound
Please think carefully when you search
We have taken away your most beloved treasure
You only have one hour,
Defeat us and take back the lost treasures.
Otherwise, you will lose them forever]
Harry floated to the surface of the water, gasping for air.
Take his treasure...
Harry thought about it carefully.
Are they going to...take my Firebolt?
Is this thing waterproof?
If it gets damaged, the school should pay for it, right?
Soon, the day of the competition came.
Wayne got up early today, not because he was hungry and in a hurry to go to the cafeteria to eat, but to prepare for today's competition.
There are seven contestants, so seven hostages are needed.
The purpose of the Christmas ball is also this.
The so-called most precious treasure generally refers to the dance partner chosen by the warriors at the ball.
However, because of Wayne, there were some small problems in the middle.
The dance partner of the three female warriors was him, and he did not dance with anyone else throughout the whole process.
It is impossible to let the three warriors rescue Wayne together, right?
This is not a team competition.
There are also some problems on Harry's side. He only danced with the girl from Costoris, and then stuck with Ron.
If he chose that girl, it would not meet the statement of the most precious treasure.
So, Ron became Harry's hostage.
Wayne went out and came to Gryffindor Tower. He didn't have to wait too long before the twins carried the unconscious Ron out.
George coughed lightly: "The goods you want, let's check it."
Wayne was full of black lines: "You two should bring some normal things. This is the goods that Professor McGonagall wants. What do I want Ron for?"
"Also, why is he unconscious?"
George glanced at his brother and said casually: "Oh, we thought Ronnie was too noisy and didn't cooperate at all, so we used a sleeping spell on him."
As expected of a real brother, he was ruthless.
Fred came over: "So this round of the game is Harry diving into the water to save Ronnie? It's so touching."
George also gloated: "Hannah and Susan's book has new materials again."
Wayne didn't talk to the two of them much, and sent Ron to Professor McGonagall.
In order to avoid being seen on the road, he deliberately added a layer of Disillusionment.
After sending Ron, he went to knock out Cedric's dance partner Angelina and Cassandra's good friend Robin and took them away.
Although the whole process alarmed some people, he solved them all with a sleeping spell, which can be called a perfect infiltration. (To read the violent novel, just go to Faloo Novel Network!)
"There is only one left, Tomoyo?" Wayne thought about the task assigned to him and came to the new building again.
He was a little worried. Tomoyo and Sakura lived together, and they were probably discovered in advance.
But to his surprise, when he came over, he found that Tomoyo had already put on the magic school uniform and stood at the door.
"Let's go?"
"Where to go?" Wayne didn't react for a while.
Tomoyo tilted her head cutely: "You are here to take me hostage, right?"
Wayne was a little curious: "How did you know? Did you guess it?"
"Well, I helped Sakura crack the golden egg clue, so I knew it at the time." Tomoyo walked side by side with Wayne and explained for him:
"If it is an ordinary item, it should not be able to inspire courage.The sense of urgency of the warriors, so it must be someone close to them. "
"I've been ready for a long time."
Tomoyo smiled slightly: "Sakura is still sleeping soundly and didn't notice my movements, don't worry."
Wayne shook his head: "What's there to worry about? Anyway, the game will start in a few hours. Knowing it a little in advance won't affect anything."
The two of them came to Professor McGonagall's office, talking and laughing, where all the hostages were.
After Wayne came in, Angelina and Robin, who had already woken up, glared at him.
Why can't you just tell them clearly? Why do you have to knock them out? []
And if you want to knock them out, knock them all out. Why did this girl from the magic institute follow you here.
Wayne didn't care about their reactions, but looked around and frowned:
"Professor McGonagall, isn't Gabrielle here yet? I'll go call her. ”
“Gabrielle?” Professor McGonagall, who was explaining the mission to the hostages, looked up in surprise: “Are you talking about Miss Delacour’s sister? What is she doing here?”
Wayne was a little confused: “Isn’t Gabrielle Fleur’s hostage?”
“Of course not, you are Miss Delacour’s hostage.”
“Huh?” Wayne was confused.
Professor McGonagall couldn’t help laughing: “Although it is very safe underwater, it is not appropriate to let a little girl stay in the water for so long. You, the real boyfriend, are fine.”
“It just so happens that you can take care of others, and we will feel more at ease.”
“Okay, it seems to make sense.” Wayne nodded dryly.
“Puff! "Tomoyo was the first to laugh, followed by Robin and Angelina.
Soon, the office was filled with joy.
In the auditorium, while having breakfast, everyone was discussing what today's game would be.
I missed the last round of games, but this time the Ministry of Magic specially prepared live broadcast equipment, and many people speculated that the game would be held outside the school.
But no matter how curious they were, they had to finish the first class.
At 9:50, the bell rang on time, and the little wizards couldn't wait to run out of the classroom and return to the lobby.
The principal and professors organized them to line up, and then walked neatly to the Black Lake.
The high platforms that were originally placed near the Fire Dragon Camp were moved here, and the audience outside the school had occupied a lot of seats.
The warriors were taken into a small tent.
Bagman looked at them with a smile, just like before the first game: "Children, how did you crack the secret of the golden egg? ”
“If there is no progress, you will be in big trouble in today’s game.”
Harry looked around and everyone’s expression was very calm.
Bagman nodded with satisfaction and began to introduce the rules of this round of competition.
In the center of the Black Lake.
At the bottom of the lake, there is a mermaid village with many roughThe stone dwellings have small windows and are hung with sinks.
Behind these houses, a 220 square is built with a huge mermaid statue on the square, where all the hostages are trapped.
According to the requirements, the hostages should be in a coma, waiting for their warriors to rescue them.
But Wayne thought it was too boring, and he couldn't see the game process at all.
He put an air bubble on everyone, so they couldn't get out of it, but they could stay awake and breathe.
Everyone was looking around curiously. Even the students of Hogwarts had never really seen the scenery at the bottom of the Black Lake.
The students of Slytherin could indeed see the Black Lake, but they could only see a small piece through the window, and it was not as clear as here.
At first, the fishman leader was very dissatisfied, but after Wayne talked to him about the truth, he became very obedient and went back to his room to recuperate.
Wayne controlled his bubble to float to Chiyo, and then opened a channel so that they could communicate with each other.
"I don't know how long it will take for the game to start, let's chat for a while."
"Okay." Tomoyo retracted her gaze, "Let's talk about what you and Sakura did on Valentine's Day?"
Wayne was very surprised: "Didn't Sakura tell you?"
"No." Tomoyo shook her head in distress.
"I thought you two could talk about anything."
"Even good friends have secrets. Every time she mentions it, she's shy and won't say anything."
"Just tell me."
Seeing Tomoyo so curious, Wayne felt that there was nothing he couldn't say, so he started from the haunted house and went all the way to the kiss on the Ferris wheel.
Tomoyo's big eyes became brighter and brighter.
"What does it feel like to kiss? Is it really comfortable?"
"It's really comfortable with Sakura." Wayne said truthfully: "Like cotton candy."
Tomoyo nodded in agreement, "Sakura is indeed fragrant and soft, so cute."
Wayne smiled: "Tomoyo is also cute."
Tomoyo looked at him with sparkling eyes: "I want to try it, okay?"
Wayne understood her words, hesitated for a moment, and looked around.
Finding that the other hostages were not paying attention to them, he decisively merged the two bubbles together.
"Are you sure?"
Tomoyo didn't say anything and closed her eyes.
On the lakeshore, the Ministry of Magic staff sent several transparent curtains into the sky. Soon, the pictures of the interior of the Black Lake appeared on them, with giant squids, grindylows, and mermaid villages.
Excited exclamations came from the audience.
Bagman had just finished introducing the rules of the game to several warriors when he heard the voice outside and said with a smile: "The live broadcast equipment should be ready, let's go out."
After that, he walked out of the tent first, followed by the warriors.
Sakura looked up and happened to seeI saw two figures hugging each other.
The light in his eyes disappeared. .
