When Krum saw Fleur coming forward, he stayed where he was, and did nothing. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"I am the representative of Hogwarts. Holly said coldly.
"You?"
"Don't you believe me?" Holly seemed a little upset, and once again released his reined magic.
"Oh, well, that's what it looks like. Fleur felt the change in the magic around her and nodded, "So I'll believe it." β
"But what...... I think we'll have a lot to see later. Holly glanced at Krum on the side, and when he just released his magic, Krum's reaction seemed to be a little bigger.
Turning his gaze back to the hall, the cheers in the hall continued for a long time as Holly walked through the door. Although there are still doubts in a small area about whether Holly is eligible for selection, because Holly and Erinka have been seen in various classes, most of the senior students did not object, and even the junior students from various colleges did not make any big noise.
In this case, Dumbledore's voice was muffled for quite some time.
"Yay. Finally, Dumbledore's voice was silenced after a certain uproar, "Now, we've chosen three players. I am confident that all of you, including the remaining students of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, will do your best to support the representatives of your school. Cheer them on, and your cheering cries will ......"
The flames that erupted again from the Goblet of Fire and the notes that fell in the air interrupted Dumbledore's speech, and again, attracted everyone's attention.
Erinka seemed to think of something at this moment, and immediately took out her wand and gestured to several people around her.
Dumbledore involuntarily grabbed the parchment, stared at the name on it, and after a long pause, finally pronounced a nameβ"Harry Potter." β
The moment Dumbledore pronounced his name, the hall fell silent. Even when everyone came back to their senses, there was still no applause or cheers like before, there was just the buzz from everyone bowing their heads and discussing and some students standing up in shock.
Erinka understood what Holly had just said at this time, the same cold eyes, before every Ravenclaw student who tried to stand up and take a rhythm or fish in troubled waters was ready to act, there would always be a cold gaze on that person, unlike the other two colleges, Ravenclaw did not produce any excesses under the pressure of a strong bullet, but everyone was a little unhappy in their hearts, and they were ready to return to the dormitory later to listen to the explanation.
After bounced through the Ravenclaw crowd, Erinka looked at Harry Potter in a daze at the Gryffindor table with some sympathy, but after a few seconds, she immediately cut this sympathy out of her head and replaced it with a deep sense of schadenfreude.
The faculty chairs were also shocked. Professor McGonagall stood up from her chair, past Luther Bagmund and Karkaroff, and hurriedly exchanged something with Dumbledore, who listened over and over again, frowning at the same time.
After some exchange, Dumbledore repeated the shouting, "Harry Potter, Harry, please come out over there." β
At the Gryffindor table, Harry Potter was pushed to his feet, and on the way to the teaching chair, he almost tripped himself several times, but fortunately, he still walked in front of Dumbledore, passed in front of all the teachers in the teaching chair, and walked through the door.
In the room, Holly had pulled out a couch for herself and half-lay down near the fire, while on the other side, Krum and Fleur sat on either side of a two-seater sofa, waiting quietly.
Hearing the sound of someone coming in, Holly looked up. A dazed Harry Potter walked in from outside.
"What's the matter? do they want us back to the halls?" said Fleur as she shook her hair when she saw Harry's arrival.
And Harry Potter hadn't fully recovered at this time.
"It doesn't look like ...... I don't think we'd be able to find such a famous student if we were to go back. Holly said as she leaned back on the couch, turning her wand in her hand. On the other side, Krum looked up, glanced at Harry Potter, and then lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
Not far away, there was another chaotic sound of footsteps. Luther Bagmund appeared from the back hallway, took Harry's hand at the end of the hallway, and said as he walked. "It's weird, it's weird. β
"Ladies and gentlemen. "Allow me to introduce, a little incredible, the fourth Wizarding Tournament player. Krum stood up and looked Harry Potter up and down, while Fleur smiled and shook her head, "That's ridiculous, Mr. Bagmun, are you Englishmen joking like that?"
Holly was still half-leaning back on the couch, looking at Bagmund and Harry Potter playfully, but the wand in his hand was spinning more quickly.
"Joke?" Bagmund repeated, "No, no, it's not a joke, the Goblet of Fire just gave Mr. Potter's name. β
Fleur frowned, "It must be wrong," she said to Bagmun, "He's too small and too weak to qualify." "Fleur didn't leave Holly out of the game.
"Hmm...... It's weird. Bagmun said, touching his chin. "But I think ...... Under such conditions, it is impossible to quit. It's the rule. β
Another jumble of footsteps rang out, this time with a larger crowd - Dumbledore, Karkaroff, Lady Maxime, including McGonagall and Snape, all walked in, along with the buzzing of the students outside.
"Madame Maxime," Fleur turned to her headmaster, "this little boy is going to compete too." At the same time, Krum also looked at Karkaroff and nodded imperceptibly.
"What does that mean?" Lady Maxim asked Dumbledore with some arrogance, "Why did Hogwarts stuff two ineligible people?"
"I want to know too. Karkaroff asked the same. "I don't remember anyone saying that the host country could have two players, and that it was one of those little wizards who looked so obviously inadequate. With that, there was a shrill laugh.
Fleur and Krum tried to dissuade their headmaster when they heard what their headmaster said, but they found that it seemed to be too late.
