Chinese students at Hogwarts

Chapter 421 News about the second round of competition

When they returned to the auditorium, everyone felt a sense of contentment, and the dance slowed down again.

The little wizards were wandering around the venue, holding gold-plated plates with pastries on them, chatting like adults.

Now that there is no such chaos in the venue, the principals and professors are finally willing to get off the field and dance to a song.

So the little wizards saw Professor Dumbledore dancing with Professor Sprout, but their bodies didn't match. The tall Dumbledore was thin, while the chubby Professor Sprout looked round. apple.

From a distance, it looks like a three-dimensional number ‘10’ spinning in circles on the stage.

Ludo Bagman and Professor McGonagall dance, and Professor McGonagall has to concentrate to ensure that she is not pushed out by Bagman's beer belly;

Madame Maxime and Hagrid danced a waltz, drawing a very wide track on the dance floor, which had a clearing effect, because when two people with a height of 4 meters rushed towards you in circles with the sound of howling wind, , it’s hard for you to control yourself from avoiding it.

The energy of the little wizards was always so high. Just a few minutes after they sat down, Harry and his friends slipped away to play somewhere with their dance partners.

Zhang Xiao and Ms. Gloves were still sitting near the corner, enjoying the rare festive atmosphere leisurely.

At the next table sat Fleur and her dance partner, Roger Davis, Ravenclaw's prefect. No one knew why Fleur chose him, but Ron's hot French girlfriend quietly revealed that Fleur In fact, no one wants to choose, but she needs a dance partner.

He used the method of divination to randomly select one among the many requesters.

Fleur was criticizing the Christmas decorations at Hogwarts to Roger Davis: "It's nothing—" She glanced at the starlit walls surrounding the Great Hall and said contemptuously: "At Beauxbatons Castle, our The auditorium is filled with ice sculptures at Christmas time.

Of course, they won't melt...like giant diamond statues, sparkling in the auditorium.

food--"

She picked up some food with her fork and sneered:

“British food!

Our food is also top notch, not this rough food at all!

We also have a choir of forest nymphs, who serenade us while we eat. "

She pointed at the armors on the wall that were creaking and shaking with the music and continued to complain: "We don't have these ugly armors on the wall at all. If any ghost who specializes in mischief breaks into Beauxbatons, he will definitely be kicked out. "

Roger Davis watched her talk with an entranced look on his face, holding his fork crooked several times and failing to bring the food to his mouth.

Lady Gloves was very dissatisfied with the Beauxbatons warriors belittling Hogwarts. She whispered to Zhang Xiao:

"What's so good about Beauxbatons? If Nicolas Flamel hadn't kept donating to them, they wouldn't be able to afford all the things they are proud of. This kind of personal prosperity is like a castle in the air.

Not to mention, Beauxbatons will only be better off under the leadership of a female principal. Once their principal is a man, it won't be long before there will be chaos. "

ah? Has this French tradition spread to the wizarding world?

"Actually, you just get used to it. Every school is saying that its own school is better. Look at Castrobushe, it doesn't even snow."

Zhang Xiao pointed at Martins who was talking non-stop to the Parvati sisters not far away. He had long been dismissive of it. After all, he came from Jiangsu in his previous life, a place where no one was convinced by the other.

A man pulled out an empty chair next to him and sat down. Zhang Xiao tilted his head, but was a little surprised because the person who came was none other than Percy, who had not been seen for a long time.

Zhang Xiao has not seen him since the last World Cup, but according to Fred and George, he had a big quarrel with his family, and also had a quarrel with his father at the Ministry of Magic, which caused Everyone knows it.

It is said that Mrs. Weasley was very sad about this for a long time.

Now Percy sat down, half leaning on the chair, placing one hand on the table, tapping his fingers gently, and looking at himself with bright eyes.

Zhang Xiao took a look and saw that Percy was now wearing a brand new navy blue ceremonial robe, with a smug and smug look on his face, and a pair of tortoiseshell glasses.

"I got promoted -" Percy said proactively - his tone sounded like he had just been elected as the supreme ruler of the universe: "I am now the trainee assistant to the Minister of Magic."

Percy smiled reservedly: "You know, I'm here today on behalf of the Ministry of Magic."

Zhang Xiao:.

No, you came here specifically to tell me this?

"Congratulations!" Zhang Xiao said dryly. Even he was confused by Percy and didn't know how to reply.

"Nothing!" Percy waved his hand, glanced at Ms. Gloves, and asked pretending not to care:

"Who is this--"

"Ms. Mona, one of Dumbledore's good friends." Zhang Xiao said without thinking. He had recited it several times and could only say that he was quite familiar with it.

After hearing this, Percy was quite surprised and nodded towards the Glove Lady as a greeting, but that was all.

It made Zhang Xiao a little confused and didn't know why he came here.

Then Percy's voice was heard:

"Well, Ms. Mona, I have something I want to talk to Zhang privately. I don't know."

Zhang Xiao shook his hands and almost poured a whole glass of juice on himself. Before he could say anything, Ms. Gloves stood up easily:

"Then you guys talk first, I just want to go somewhere else -"

Percy raised his chin at the lady in approval, as if he was very satisfied with his performance. Zhang Xiao was almost numb, but Lady Gloves really didn't seem to care, and started wandering around the auditorium with her hands behind her back with interest. stand up.

Zhang Xiao simply put down what he was holding. He also wanted to hear what Percy had to say to him.

"You know, I'm currently working as a trainee assistant to the Minister at the Ministry of Magic." Percy's tone was still the same, as if he was not an assistant, but the Minister himself.

"Um"

"So I get to hear a lot of - well a lot of classified stuff, yeah, absolutely classified."

Zhang Xiao suddenly became a little interested. He thought of Percy drinking too much and showing his true feelings during Christmas at his home. Could it be that Percy was about to have a sexual disorder now?

No more pretending? What top-secret news are you here to deliver?

"Oh? So you want to tell me now?"

"Of course!" Percy said mysteriously, with an expression of 'it's your honor' on his face, he came closer to Zhang Xiao and whispered:

"do you know?"

Zhang Xiao's ears perked up, and then he heard Percy say sourly:

"Mr. Crouch has expressed to me many times that he thinks highly of you and appreciates you!"

"Hmm, what next?"

"Then? No more!"

ah? Zhang Xiao turned his head and looked at Percy who was also confused with a confused expression.

"this one?"

Percy became anxious, and his face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye:

"Of course that's it, what else do you want? Do you know how precious Mr. Crouch's personal praise is?"

You must know that it is absolutely confidential that the Minister of Magic praises a person many times in private, because many people will try to please him and flatter him! "

"Oh, then I really want to thank Mr. Crouch for the compliment." Zhang Xiao sighed and picked up the wine glass again. If the person in front of him was a Chinese, he would have already understood that this meant serving tea to see off guests.

It's a pity that Percy is not. On the contrary, he is still talking about some random things, such as Mr. Crouch said that Zhang has a bright future and is a rising star in the wizarding world.

Zhang Xiao was so bored that he just wanted to yawn and go back to sleep. He listened patiently to Percy's non-stop chatter until he heard one sentence from Percy's seemingly pile of nonsense:

"Mr. Crouch also specifically asked me to have a good relationship with you. If this isn't the best appreciation for you, what is it?"

Wait a minute, Crouch wants Percy and me to be on good terms? Why? Zhang Xiao's eyes narrowed.

Percy was still talking, but Zhang Xiao couldn't care anymore. He began to think about the only useful information in this sentence.

Recently, there have been countless people who want to make friends with me, and I still receive a lot of owl letters every day. They are all people who want to get to know me after watching the first game.

Some expressed love and admiration, and a very few expressed jealousy and abuse. They were all ardent fans of other schools.

Perhaps it was because he realized his own value that Crouch asked Percy to do this?

Or is it because he has a good relationship with the Weasley family that Crouch thinks this is a good starting point?

And most importantly, what will be gained by doing so?

Well, everyone knows that I have a close relationship with Dumbledore, so I can influence Dumbledore?

Dongfang is powerful and powerful. This is something that everyone has only known recently, so can they make good friends with Dongfang?

The mild pureblood is bound to his own high interests, can he also exert influence on the pureblood?

Zhang Xiao smacked his lips. He didn't expect that his role was quite big. If I were Crouch, I would also want to be friends with him.

Percy regretfully left in the end, because Zhang Xiao never expressed his intention to become a good friend with him, so he could only mutter something and leave angrily.

Ms. Glove still hasn't come back. She is very curious about the castle, and she may not know where to go.

So Zhang Xiao sat on the chair with peace of mind, eating desserts to replenish the energy he had just consumed by dancing in the open world, and watching the lively scene on the dance floor.

To be honest, there are no bars yet

In her previous life, Zhang Xiao was not very fond of bars. After going there a few times, she really couldn't stand it anymore, let alone the slow-moving bar scene now.

He looked at Karkaroff on the dance floor, leaning comfortably on the armchair at the teacher's desk, and suddenly felt confused.

It seems that in the original plot, this guy was frightened to death by the dark magic mark on his arm. Voldemort had not yet been resurrected at that time, and he finally abandoned the school and ran away, and was caught by Voldemort's people in a cave.

Why is it that now that Voldemort is resurrected, he doesn't look afraid at all?

Could it be that Voldemort's disappearance gave him confidence?

Finally, with the last long trill of the Weird Sisters at the end, they bowed to warm applause.

Dumbledore stood on the stage and raised his hands with a smile to the audience, which was already missing a lot of people:

"Okay, okay, music, dance, wine and food are always so intoxicating."

The little wizards nodded desperately, as if this would allow this event to continue for a long time.

“But it is precisely the fact that they are held so infrequently that gives these events their charm, and believe me, once these treats are enjoyed every day, they will soon lose their charm.”

The students laughed sheepishly after seeing through their little thoughts.

Dumbledore waited quietly for them to finish laughing before continuing:

"In short, I believe that everyone must have had a happy Christmas, which means that the new year is coming, and the second event of the Triwizard Tournament will be gradually announced to everyone.

Let me first remind all warriors that the second event will be held at the end of January. Compared with the first event, the second event also examines each warrior from various dimensions. "

The little wizards began to applaud vigorously, and similarly, the audience in front of the magic projection couldn't help but cheer.

In just a few days, this event has become a top event that attracts the attention of the entire wizarding world. It is said that the British Ministry of Magic has received many advertising requests.

The price is several times that of the Quidditch World Cup.

The Ministry of Magic is gearing up to make huge profits from this event.

“Before that, I still need to tell you something. Because the competition in the second event is also huge, the players will be taken to one place collectively.

In other words, it is almost impossible to watch the game on site, but the school will organize students to watch the game collectively————”

Dumbledore's words were interrupted by the excited little wizards below, who expressed their dissatisfaction in various voices.

As the host, Hogwarts students can enjoy the best viewing position without buying tickets. Now that this privilege is suddenly gone, how can they be satisfied.

Among the crowd, only the faces of the warriors became serious. The scale of the first round of projects was already astonishing, especially the Sky Island, which simply exceeded their three views.

But now Dumbledore actually said that the second round was so big that Hogwarts couldn't accommodate it!

Large scale also means great difficulty. A sense of urgency suddenly emerged in their hearts. Many people wanted to go back and start preparations now.

The same goes for the little wizards at Hogwarts.

The warriors from each school raised their heads, looked for their opponents in the crowd, glared at each other fiercely, and then quietly clenched their fists.

This round, we must win!
