Chapter 558: The Threat of Bluffing
readx;?“ This was my negligence, and I should have thought of a better measure. Pen %Fun%Cabinet www.biquge.info," Dumbledore said.
"You admit it?!, so it seems that the boy did help him throw his name slip into the Goblet of Fire through the senior students. Karkaroff said in a vicious voice, "This is a serious rule violation, Hogwarts is cheating!"
"I didn't!" Ron muttered, his face pale with no blood at all, "I didn't cheat!"
"Mr. Weasley didn't do that!" Professor McGonagall said angrily, glaring at Professor Snape very angrily, "we should believe him, he didn't persuade the seniors to help him with this, it can be found. ”
"Ron has been with us all day, at Hagrid's!" Hermione said hurriedly.
"We can prove that he didn't cast his name into the Goblet of Fire. Harry shouted.
"That's right, and I don't think the Goblet of Fire would make the mistake of picking two Warriors in the same school. "It's a conspiracy!"
"What do you mean?!" everyone looked at him, as if they didn't quite understand.
"As you all know, the Goblet of Fire is a very powerful magical item. "To fool it into forgetting that there are only three schools in the tournament, it needs a particularly powerful Confusion Charm or some other dark magic." If I think someone must have put Ron's name on the list as a student at the fourth school, to make sure he was the only candidate for that school......"
Hearing Aven's words, everyone pondered, thinking about the possibility of such a thing.
"Ridiculous!" said Karkaroff, "the idea is so whimsical that the boy threw his name into the Goblet of Fire, and then the damn goblet made a mistake and spit out his name." ”
"No way, there's nothing wrong with the Goblet of Fire, Karkaroff!" Ludo Bagman said uneasily, "We've checked before, haven't we, Barty?!"
"I'm in charge of the inspection!" Crouch said in a dull voice.
He stood outside the circle of light of the fire, half of his face hidden in shadow, his wrinkled skin as white as paper.
"Are you suspicious of me, Karkaroff?!" he asked.
"Of course not, I'm not doubting you!" Karkaroff took a step back, looking scared of Crouch, and said again in a slick voice, "but you must also think that this is extremely inappropriate, don't you?"
Bagman did not reply, wiped his round baby face with his handkerchief, and turned to look at Mr. Crouch.
"There is nothing reasonable or unreasonable, we must abide by the charter, which clearly states that anyone whose name comes out of the Goblet of Fire must compete in the Triwizard Tournament. Crouch didn't look at everyone, he stared at the burning fire, not knowing what he was thinking.
For a few seconds, Evan thought he was going to walk into the flames.
Barty memorized the charter by heart. Bagman said, a smile on his face.
He looked back at Karkaroff and Madame Maxim, as if the matter had been satisfactorily settled.
"No, I'm insisting that my other students re-enroll!" Karkaroff had an ugly look on his face, and instead of looking at Crouch by the flames, he turned to Dumbledore and asked, "You have to put the Goblet of Fire back up, and we're going to keep adding names to it until each school produces two champions." That's fair, Dumbledore!"
"I'm afraid it won't work, Karkaroff!" Bagman said, frowning, twitching his fingers vigorously with his handkerchief, "You know, the Goblet of Fire has just been extinguished, and it won't be ......rekindled until the next tournament."
"Durmstrang will never participate in the next tournament!" Karkaroff was furious, "We had so many meetings, after so many negotiations and consultations, I didn't expect such a thing to happen, I just want to leave now!"
Evan pushed Moody in the back, it was time for him to step in, if it went on like this, the matter would fall apart.
Of all the people, except for Moody, there was really no one who could cure Karkaroff.
"Threat of bluffing, Karkaroff!" Moody immediately shouted loudly, louder than Karkaroff, startling everyone, "You can't let your warrior go now, he has to compete." They all have to participate in a tournament, which is bound by a magical contract. It's good for you, isn't it?"
He limped to the center, holding Ron behind him, glaring at Karkaroff viciously.
Under his gaze, the expression on Karkarov's face became extremely ugly.
"Favorable?!" he said angrily, "I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean, Moody." ”
He could see that he was trying to make his tone appear contemptuous, as if he didn't give a damn about Moody's words.
However, his hands exposed his heart, and they involuntarily clenched into fists.
"Really?!" Moody whispered, "It's easy, Karkaroff!As Evan said, someone put Weasley's name in the Goblet of Fire, and he knew that if the name was spewed out, the kid would have to play." ”
"Obviously, that man wants to give Hogwarts two chances!" said Madame Maxim.
"I agree with you, Madame Maxime!" Karkaroff said, bowing to her, "I am going to file a complaint with the Ministry of Magic and the International Federation of Wizards......
"Enough, if anyone has reason to complain, it's Weasley!" Moody said gruffly, "but I didn't hear a word say a word!"
"Why is he complaining?" Fleur couldn't help but ask, stomping her foot angrily, "He's got a chance to compete, hasn't he? For weeks, we've been wishing we were chosen!
"Maybe someone wants Weasley to die for this. Moody said, with a hint of growl in his tone.
After his words, there was a tense silence.
Ludo Bagman looked very anxious, his body bouncing up and down uneasily.
"Moody, you old fellow, how can you say such a thing!"
"We all know that Professor Moody would have wasted the morning if he hadn't found out six men trying to murder him before lunch. "Apparently, he is now teaching his students to be suspicious and think that someone is trying to kill him." As a Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, this quality is really rare, Dumbledore. But there is no doubt that you have your own considerations. (To be continued.) )
