Chapter 247, Hermione, who is not allowed to enter the living

The long-awaited day has finally arrived, and today is the opening ceremony of the Quidditch World Cup. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info In order to be able to get to the arena in the fastest time, everyone came to Ron's house a day early, Harry originally thought that his way out of privet was no less than a difficult adventure, but something happened during the summer vacation that made him ecstatic.

From Uncle Vernon, Harry learned that Sirius had written a letter to the Dursleys, and it was unknown what Harry was, but he could think of it, because the Dursleys had not restricted his travel throughout the summer. Sirius definitely left an unforgettable "memory" for the Dursleys in the letter, and Harry was very pleased with it.

Ron's girlfriend Lavender naturally came. Although Ron said that Lavender was his classmate when he introduced him to his parents, based on the mouths of George and Fred, it was superfluous for Ron to say that. Mrs. Weasley had known about her youngest son's girlfriend for a long time, but she was very fond of Mrs. Lavender Weasley. It was also a relief for Ron.

Anyway, it's definitely a joy for everyone to get together to watch the World Cup. Of course, Hermione was an exception, and since she arrived at the Burrow, her little face has been tense except for the necessary greetings, and she has an expression that no one wants to enter. Harry and Ron naturally knew what the reason was, so they didn't break it in case they got into trouble!

Before dawn the next day, Harry, Hermione, and Ron went to the Leaky Cauldron and left their tickets and address at the counter when they learned that Bruce hadn't returned. Hermione's face was even more frightening!

By the time they returned to the Burrow, everyone had already packed up, and Mr. Weasley, carrying a large backpack, urged, "Where have you three been?" ”

"Do you want to go now? We haven't had breakfast yet, have we? Ron said in surprise.

Mr. Weasley said: "It's okay to eat in the arena, but I'm betting with Amos that the Irish team will win!" ”

At this time, Mrs. Weasley grimaced and said, "Arthur, you are actually gambling!" ”

"Oh! No, no, dear! Mr. Weasley hastened to explain: "I just bet with Amos on two boxes of Cuban cigars, and you know that he often travels to Brazil to get their hands on these gadgets." Oh, kids! It's time for us to go. ”

"Great!" Ron shouted with cheer.

"Huh!" Mrs. Weasley asked curiously, "Why didn't Bruce come?" ”

"Huh!"

As soon as Mrs. Weasley said this, Harry and Ron hurried away from Hermione, and Harry hurriedly said, "What's that...... He...... He'll do it later, yes! So...... Hermione, you have to trust Bruce, he definitely doesn't want to miss the opening ceremony of the World Cup! ”

A phrase squeezed out between Hermione's teeth: "He'd better die outside, huh!" ”

Hermione picked up her backpack and walked outside angrily, and Mrs. Weasley asked in surprise, "What's wrong with her?" Did Bruce her off? ”

Ron smiled wryly, "Mom, it's hard to explain this. Let's go! ”

"Well, then watch out on the road. Remember to follow your dad when you get to the arena, don't get lost! Ron, you're going to take care of Lavender. Mrs. Weasley instructed impatiently.

"Mom! You've said it five times. Please, hurry up! George and Fred shouted outside.

So a group of eight people set out, but to everyone's surprise, they did not use the flying road net, nor drove the flying car, but the oldest way - walking.

"Where are we going?" On the way, Harry asked curiously.

Ron waved his hand and said, "I'm wondering too." ”

Lavender took Ron's arm around and asked, "Don't you know Quidditch very well?" ”

"But it's my first time going to the World Cup," Ron said. ”

The two are now more and more "open", and they dare to be intimate in front of their families. At this time, Harry hurriedly intervened beside the two of them and whispered, "Please, you two don't be so affectionate, there is a bomb next to us!" ”

"Harry!" Hermione's grim voice came.

"Huh! Hehe! Feeling Hermione's cold eyes, Harry smiled awkwardly, "What's that...... Oh! Why didn't you see Charlie and Bill! ”

Ron's two older brothers, Bill and Charlie, also rushed out to watch the World Cup.

At this time, Mr. Weasley, who was walking in front, said, "The two of them have already graduated, and they can change their shadows, so there is no need to be so early." The two of them usually work hard, let them sleep more! ”

"Then why don't you change shapes?" Harry asked.

Mr. Weasley laughed, "I want that too, Harry!" But I can't help it, I'm going to lead you there, and I want a friend waiting for us! Keep up! ”

Mr. Weasley led the group into a wooded field, and in about ten minutes they saw a middle-aged man with a backpack smiling and waving to them under a large tree.

"Hey! Arthur, you're too slow! The man laughed.

Mr. Weasley waved his hand and smiled, "Good morning, old man! ”

"Oh! It's not too early. You're still 'on time' as always, man! The man quipped.

Mr. Weasley laughed, "I'm sorry, Amos! Overslept. ”

Then he introduced the crowd: "Boys, this is Amos Diggory! My colleague from the Ministry of Magic. ”

"Diggory!" Harry and Hermione said in surprise.

"What's wrong?" Ron asked.

Hermione said, "Diggory, is he ......?"

Before they finished speaking, a figure suddenly fell from the "sky", and a handsome boy jumped down from a tree and looked at them with a smile.

Mr. Weasley laughed, "So this young man who fell from the sky must be Cedric?" ”

That's right, Mr. Weasley's colleague, Mr. Amos Diggory, was Cedric's father.

"Hello! Mr. Weasley. My dad talks a lot about you. Cedric said with a smile. Then he looked at the people behind him and smiled, "You really made me wait, President Granger, Harry!" ”

"Oh! Do you know? Mr. Weasley said in surprise.

Amos laughed, "I'm afraid you don't know yet, Arthur! Our children are much better than us, and they have established the Elf Fujin Association at school, and Cedric is the vice president! ”

"Oh! Merlin's beard, I didn't even know. Mr. Weasley said in surprise.

Amos smiled: "Wait until you get to the arena and sigh." ”

"Of course, you know what? I can't wait to taste the Cuban cigars! Mr. Weasley laughed.

"Hey! Bulgaria will definitely win. Wait and see! Amos said.

"Then let's wait and see! But it's time for us to go. Mr. Weasley said.

After leaving, Mr. Weasley and Amos continued to discuss their respective teams, while Cedric naturally chatted with Hermione.

"I didn't expect you to come, Cedric." Hermione said.

Cedric laughed, "Oh! Hermione, you don't seem to want to see me. By the way, why didn't you see Bruce? ”

As soon as she said this, Hermione's face, which had a hint of a smile, immediately turned cold.

"Huh! What's wrong? Did I say something wrong? Cedric asked, sensing the change in Hermione.

Harry hurriedly said, "Huh! Nothing, right! Cedric: What did you do during the summer? ”

Although Cedric didn't know why Bruce didn't show up, he also guessed that this might be the reason why Hermione was angry, so he took advantage of Harry's "steps" and said, "Oh, of course it's to increase the strength. I'm already planning to participate in the Triwizard Tournament this semester! ”

"Wow! Is it? Harry was surprised, "But I heard that game was dangerous. ”

Cedric said confidently: "Sure, but I am confident that I can win the championship for our school!" ”

Harry immediately said, "Then I will definitely cheer you on." ”

"Thank you! Actually, I was going to have Bruce join me, and even though he's only in the fourth grade, I think he's definitely capable of participating! Cedric said.

Ron immediately answered, "Impossible, Hermione won't let him participate!" ”

"Huh!" Hermione sneered and said, "It's okay to let him participate, the province looks like a cow all day long!" ”

"Huh!" Feeling Hermione's tone, Cedric immediately came to Harry's side and asked quietly, "What did Bruce do to make Hermione so angry?" ”

Harry smiled helplessly, "That's it...... How can I tell you. Bruce went to China for the summer and didn't tell us, that's why Hermione was angry. ”

"To China?!" Cedric was surprised and said, "What is he doing in China?" ”

Harry said, "Who knows, I went without saying hello, and borrowed my fire bolts!" ”

"Ahh Cedric was surprised and said, "He's not going to go to China on a broomstick, is he?" ”

"I don't know!" Harry said.

Cedric laughed: "I heard at school that Bruce was obsessed with Chinese culture, but I really didn't expect him to go to China himself!" ”

"Not only did you not expect it, but we also did not expect it!" Ron said helplessly: "This kid is good, go to China to play in the mountains and rivers, we are angry with Hermione here!" ”

Harry hurriedly said, "Be quiet, you're messing with her." ”

Lavender chuckled softly: "I think Bruce will be less lucky after he comes back this time." ”

In order not to irritate Hermione again, the group quickly turned to Quidditch and talked about the teams they supported. Although it was walking, everyone was not bored while walking. But then Harry realized that something was wrong, and they were still walking, and the point was that it was past noon.

"Oh my God! Where are we going? Tired of me? Harry said breathlessly.

Hermione, too, was tired and asked, "Who...... Can anyone tell me exactly where we're going? ”

Cedric said, "We're just a walk away, we're going to find the harbor key." ”

"Harbor key? What is that? Harry asked.

Cedric explained, "Huh? It's a fast track. After all, the World Cup should be held in a place where Muggles are rare. But these places are very remote, so there are port keys set up in various places, through which we can go directly to the stadium. ”

"In that case, why not set it up closer." Hermione said dissatisfied.

Cedric laughed, "There are too many people, and the Ministry of Magic can't take care of everyone." After holding on for a while, I think I'll be there soon. ”

"This is the third time you've said that." (To be continued.) )
