Chapter Forty-Eight: Hello, My Name Is Cedric Diggory

Early the next morning, Karl gathered the crowd again and gave each of them a badge.

The coat of arms depicts an eye with three pointed feet underneath.

Violet Eyes.

"This is the hallmark of the studio. Karl said to the crowd.

"I cast a spell on it, and when I need to gather everyone, the eyes on the badge will blink, and at the same time, the badge will get hot, so that I can feel it even when I put it on my body. ”

Carl turned his back at the crowd again, "The back of the badge will show the location and time of the meeting, and I have cast a change spell on each badge, and as long as my badge changes, all the badges will change." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Hermione, who had learned this trick from her.

"Change Charm?" said Diana Spring, the only seventh-grader among the few, subconsciously, "that's N.E.w.Ts!"

The girl had long dark blonde hair, casually tied into a ponytail, and a heroic look on her face, which she knew was a Gryffindor.

At the same time, according to her, her father was a healer who worked at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries.

"Didn't Professor Flitwick say that, if he was the examiner, he would have given Carl an O!" said Jim Green with honor, "Carl must have reached that level a long time ago!"

"But you're only in second grade!" Diana patted her forehead angrily.

With her movements, she naturally straightened her chest.

Including Jim, the eyes of several boys present immediately straightened a little, except for Carl.

After Jim praised him just now, he suddenly felt a little emotional.

You say that a person can obviously eat with his face, but he has to rely on his talent.

What kind of spirit is this?

"Teach me if you have time, Carl, I don't always use this spell well. Diana casually brushed her hair behind her ears and said.

This action once again caused several other boys present to swallow their saliva.

Hermione and the Ravenclaw girl looked at each other unconsciously, and then they both lowered their heads at the same time, as if looking at their toes.

"There's a chance. ”

Karl replied casually.

He was still immersed in emotion.

To be honest, he admired himself a little.

Somehow, when he raised his head, he suddenly felt that Diana looked at him a little strangely.

......

That night, they reappeared in the abandoned classroom on the third floor to continue their unfinished work.

As everyone became more proficient, the development of the new version progressed rapidly.

So, at half past eight on Thursday evening, Karl officially announced the successful completion of the development of a new version of Hearthstone.

With freshly baked samples in hand, George and Fred even ignored the curfew and ran straight out of the school gate.

The next day, Friday.

In the afternoon, the abandoned classroom, which had been empty, was filled with people again.

Because George and Fred released the news in advance, there were more people this time than Carl had seen last time.

At 1:10 a.m., it was still 20 minutes before the game officially began, but when he reached the door of the classroom, he found that there were so many people that there was almost no place to stay.

Across the crowd, in the innermost part of the classroom, to the left of the podium, Carl even saw a reporter from the Daily Prophet.

It's not Rita Skeeter, it's a small man, flanked by a tall, middle-aged man with an old-fashioned camera, who is constantly taking pictures of the crowd below.

Soon, someone saw him.

"It's Carl! he's coming!"

Everyone looked at the door and quickly made way for him.

Carl had no choice but to follow the path out of the way.

To be honest, after gradually getting used to it, this feeling of being in the spotlight is quite refreshing.

This was true until he was so shaken by the old-fashioned flashing lights that he could barely open his eyes.

As soon as he reached the front of the classroom, the tall, middle-aged man with an old-fashioned camera began to shoot at him.

In the back, he simply closed his eyes to protect them from the bright light

When it came to 1:30 sharp, George and Fred walked to the front of the stage.

After the first two times, the twins have become familiar with the road.

"Welcome to the third Hogwarts Hearthstone tournament this school year, and we have important news to announce before the tournament begins. ”

As soon as the words fell, the people below began to talk to each other.

"What could it be, Harry?" Ron looked nervously at the stage.

Harry shook his head.

In fact, there are many people who have the same doubts as Ron, although George and Fred released the news early in the morning, but only said that a big announcement would be made at today's game, but did not say what it was at all.

Ron questioned the two of them for a long time, but he didn't get a word out of his two brothers.

George and Fred seemed to be deliberately selling off the guanzi until everyone was getting tired of waiting, and then continued: "I guess you already know something-"

"Now, we're excited to announce that the development of a new version of Hearthstone has been completed under the leadership of Carl and through the tireless efforts of our Kenrito studio overnight!"

Rumble!

The crowd exploded straight into the pot.

Not only are they amazed at the birth of the new version, but at the same time, they are focusing on a second one.

In the crowd, Ron stared at the stage in amazement.

Karl ...... Carl set up a studio to do this?!"

Beside him, Harry suddenly felt a little parched, he had never imagined that he was so close to the opportunity to make Hearthstone with his own hands.

Of all the first-year students, he was the best performer.

Damn it!

If only he could do a little better!

Malfoy's expression was similar to Ron's, his face full of disbelief.

Such a big news, as the child of the shareholder's family, he didn't even know at all?!

If Harry felt sorry for the fact that he had only been on the edge of the opportunity, the dozen or so people who had successfully passed the primaries before, but were eventually brushed off because they had lost two Hearthstones, suddenly felt a little difficult to breathe.

Cedric Diggory looked bitterly at Sylvanas Windranger in his hand, he was happy to draw this card, but now, he didn't know how to describe his feelings.

Suddenly, in the midst of cheers, he heard someone sniffling behind him, his voice clearly crying, and he turned around to see an Asian girl.

Her best friend was comforting her.

He whispered a spell, conjured a tissue with his wand, and turned and handed it to the girl.

The girl subconsciously took the tissue and looked at him suspiciously.

Cedric smiled softly.

"Hello, my name is Cedric Diggory. ”
