Chapter 298, Peach Blossom Luck
Ron smirked smugly, "Thank you for the compliment, but ...... Bruce, our topic seems to be off the rails. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoAren't we talking about Snape? ā
"yes!" Hermione suddenly realized, "Bruce's news is so powerful that it ignores our topic in the first place. ā
Harry said; "Yes! Bruce, why don't you doubt Snape? ā
Bruce said, "It's a coincidence, Aberforth told me that there were Voldemort's spies at Hogwarts. It's just that they don't know who this mole is? At that time, I wondered where they got this information, even the extremely secret news of the mole, so I asked him this question. ā
Hermione suddenly thought of something and immediately said, "I think Mr. Aberforth must have replied that Dumbledore must have arranged a mole around Voldemort as well, right?" ā
Bruce looked at Hermione in shock and nodded, and said appreciatively: "Honey, if you go to be a detective, it will definitely be the female version of Sherlock Holmes." ā
"It can't be Snape, right?" Harry asked, surprised.
Bruce said; "He's certainly not going to tell me anything like that, but I guess it's Snape."
"No, it won't!" Ron said he didn't believe Snape would be a stoic hero.
Hermione said, "I think it's quite possible that you wanted Snape to be a Death Eater, but betrayed the Dark Lord before he was defeated. This was a common occurrence at the time, as there were a lot of wallgrass among the Death Eaters. However, Snape was personally vouched for by Dumbledore, and not only that, but he also became a professor at Hogwarts. These can tell us the answer. ā
"But why is he still targeting us everywhere...... No, why Harry at every turn. Harry was the hero who defeated Voldemort! Ron asked, puzzled.
In fact, Ron wasn't alone, Bruce and Hermione were curious. Snape's hatred for Harry was visceral, not fake. In third year, Professor McGonagall once gave Bruce an answer because of a conflict with Harry's father.
Although the problem is not a problem at all for their current situation, out of the gossip spirit, Bruce really wants to know the exact reason. It's a pity that Professor McGonagall didn't say anything at the time.
"Don't talk about him." Harry said, "Bruce should tell me what you can do, although I am not averse to taking risks, but I would not object to it if it was safer." ā
Bruce smiled mysteriously and took out an envelope from his pocket and said, "It's this secret magic weapon." I begged my grandfather to tell my grandmother to get it. ā
"What is it?" Harry said impatiently, reaching for the envelope.
Bruce immediately put the envelope in his arms and said, "The secret magic weapon can only be used at the most critical time. Don't forget, there is another mole around us, and no one can say anything about it. Ron, you have to be tight! ā
Ron immediately said, "Don't worry. Even if it's Lavender and George, I won't say it! ā
Bruce nodded and said, "Also, Harry, I have to warn you. Although the two of us were in a daze to participate in the Final Three, it was not our intention. But at the moment we are riding a tiger, and if we want to live safely until the end of the semester, we have to win the championship in the next race, and in terms of safety, it has to be the two of us together. ā
What Bruce fears most now is Voldemort's "individual defeats", he didn't tell Harry that Voldemort's real target was him, and Aberforth also told Bruce that the two should stay together as much as possible during the game.
Harry said, "Don't worry, I know what to do. ā
"Alright! That's all for today, let's go back to sleep. Bruce said, standing up.
Harry laughed, "May Merlin keep us safe for the summer." ā
"Huh!"
In fact, Bruce still hid something from the three of them, and it can't be said to be hidden, after all, these are his own speculations now, and this guess makes him feel a little unreal. That's Snape's tip!
The next few days became hectic for Bruce and the four of them. Aside from going to class, sleeping, and eating, Bruce and Harry spend most of their free time training, and the Room of Requirement was ruined by the two. Ron put his Quidditch skills behind and joined the two in training.
Although he doesn't have to face danger directly, Ron still wants to improve his strength, in case it is useful!
As for Hermione, she was the busiest of the four. In addition to helping the three of them gather as much information as possible, she also has to keep studying. Hermione spent her life on the run, and she had to turn on the time turner again.
Although the time turner was specially granted to her by Professor McGonagall, it is theoretically only available for one semester, and although the Ministry of Magic will not recycle it, if it needs to be used after a year, it must be applied to the guarantor, that is, Professor McGonagall.
With Professor McGonagall's iron-faced and selfless personality, Hermione knew she would never agree, so she risked violating the rules to use it. Fortunately, this time, Bruce Harry and Ron were hiding it for her, so no one found out.
Soon the time is June, and the third and final match of the Triwizard Tournament is on June 24, and the time for the final is getting closer and closer. Everyone is preparing intensely, with Fleur, Cedric, and Krum all wanting to win the title, while Bruce and Harry have more reasons to go for it.
Compared to the five people who participated in the competition, the other students were very relaxed. It is worth mentioning that the Weasley brothers' gamble has become increasingly popular, and many professors even participate in it privately. The results of the first and second games were really eye-catching.
The students who bought Bruce and Harry made a lot of money, and of course George and Weasley made even more.
It was time for the eve of the game, and Bruce did not train on this day. He needs to relax, especially since tomorrow is the "decisive moment". His strength can no longer be improved, what he needs is to be prepared to face all difficulties. But Harry, Hermione, and Ron didn't stop, and they were still preparing hard.
So Bruce had to take Jack to the lake by himself.
"Wow!"
Jack was running happily around the lake, very excited. Bruce felt guilty when he saw Jack happy. Jack is his own pet, but he only walks with him a handful of times.
"Come here, man!" Bruce shouted.
Jack immediately came to the master's side, and Bruce squatted down and stroked Jack and said; "I'm sorry, man! This time has neglected you. ā
Jack licked Bruce's hand as if to say that he didn't mind, Jack was very smart and had a special bloodline, although he didn't have human intelligence, he could also feel that his master was preparing for a big thing.
Looking at Jack's appearance, Bruce smiled, "I'll take it to London during the holidays, you must have never seen the Muggle world like it." ā
"It seems that you must rarely spend time with your pets." A sweet voice came from behind, and Fleur stood in a sky-blue robe looking at him with a smile.
"It's you!" Bruce stood up and smiled, "It's been a long time, how are you doing?" ā
Fleur said helplessly: "It's okay! I'm tired, I haven't breathed fresh air for a few months to prepare for the last race, and tomorrow is the third game, I want to relax, work and rest! ā
Bruce laughed, "Then we're pretty much the same, we really should relax." ā
Fleur smiled, "Didn't you say before that you weren't interested in the game?" How? Fun changed? ā
Bruce said: "It's all here, of course we have to fight." Let's go, let's go together! ā
"Hmm!"
The two walked slowly along the lake, and Jack was still cheerful, running to the lake to look at the water, then to the nearby tree and screaming, and then to his master.
"Is it really the bloodline of a dragon foal? I look more like a normal dog! Fleur said.
Bruce nodded and said, "I love that." I don't care about Jack's bloodline, he's just my friend. ā
Fleur said, "That's right, I want to have a pet when you say that." Is it okay to stay with me during the summer vacation? ā
Bruce smiled: "Of course, it is obligatory to accompany beautiful women shopping, but don't you need to go back to France?" ā
"No, I'll be in London for a few months, my grandmother lives in the UK, and we've seen her for a long time," Fleur said. So I'm going to stay in the UK for a while to spend with her. ā
Bruce said, "You should accompany the old man, alright! Then let's make an appointment with you to pick out a pet during the summer vacation. ā
Fleur smiled, "Really? Thank you! I'm not familiar with London, so it's great to have you. ā
Bruce quipped, "Thank you for something practical, like putting some water in the game." ā
Fleur smiled wryly; "I should say that, I didn't finish the second game, and now I'm at the bottom of the points."
"The last game is the key, so let's all work hard," Bruce said. ā
"Well, that's right! By the way, I haven't thanked you yet, thank you for saving Gabrielle. ā
Bruce said, "No, Gabrielle won't be in danger, and she'll be sent ashore without me." ā
Fleur said, "But you didn't know it at the time. Gabrielle is my sister, and you've saved me twice, Bruce! I really don't know how to repay you. ā
Bruce laughed, "I really don't need to, I'm not a loss, I'm still ...... when I'm in the lake Forehead! ā
Bruce is usually used to teasing, and subconsciously said this sentence. Fortunately, she didn't say the point earlier, but Fleur also knew what it meant, and her pretty face was flushed.
"Ahem!" Feeling the embarrassment between the two, Bruce coughed lightly and said, "It's not early, let's go back." ā
With that, Bruce turned to leave, and at that moment......
"Bruce!"
Bruce turned around, and before his eyes could "function", the warm lips kissed on his mouth. Bruce's eyes were unexpectedly "big", and he looked at Fleur in surprise, and even saw his eyes trembling because of shyness.
Bruce knew he should push her away, but he didn't want to do it. After a long time, Fleur took a step back, too shy to look directly at Bruce, and said, "Thank you, don't forget our agreement." I'm leaving! ā
Looking at Fleur's back, Bruce smiled bitterly and said, "Is this Peach Blossom Luck?" I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse, but ...... Seems to be quite comfortable! ā
