As a newspaper reporter, Rita Skeeter is absolutely obnoxious. She does not hesitate to distort the facts, tarnish the pure white, and scandalize the beautiful, and then add all kinds of gimmicks to it, and use false topics to attract the people who are ignorant of the truth.

But as a voyeur of first-hand hidden information, she is very capable.

Rita Skeeter, is an unregistered Animagus. Her Animagus form is a very small beetle, even better than Maca's hummingbird form in terms of concealment.

So, even Maca was looking forward to it, and he wanted to hear what news this woman had gotten from somewhere else. Because he knew that since this woman could have the confidence of a lion to open her mouth, she must have some very important secrets in her hands.

“…… Speak up and listen! ”

With a wave of her hand, Maca cast a silent spell on the perimeter of the rest area, then gestured at Skeeter. Seeing this, the latter was still not at ease, and looked left and right for a while before lowering his voice and speaking.

"Mr. McLean, here's the thing...... "Skeeter said mysteriously, "You see, there's also news from the Indian wizarding community that a delegation is going to be sent to participate in the competition, right?" But they haven't shown up yet, don't you think ......?"

"You mean to say about the Indian delegation's stay in Iran?" Maca waved her hand and said, "I already know about this matter, so I don't need you to provide it specifically." ”

"Oh?" Skeeter was stunned, but her expression became more mysterious, and there was a hint of smugness in it, "So, Mr. McLean...... Do you know of any other countries where shamans are also in Iran? ”

"And 'which ones'?"

When Maca heard this, she couldn't help frowning slightly.

If one or two families meet together, it is not a big deal, after all, this game is already full of disputes over power and profit. But if there are too many of them, it's easy to get out of control.

He did get the news that the Indian delegation had settled in Iran, and even knew that the two sides were coming together for some unknown representations. But if there are wizards from other countries, then he doesn't know.

"Yes," since this was a trade of intelligence and profit, Skeeter had no intention of selling off her appetite too much, and soon continued, "mainly the countries around Iran, and the wizards on the Egyptian side seem to have ...... However, with the exception of the Indian delegation, the wizards should have avoided the actions of the Ministry of Magic in their own countries. ”

"That is, is it mainly the individual actions of certain forces?" Maca said thoughtfully, "Well, what about the joint delegation from Mesopotamia?" Since all the sorcerers of Egypt have a part to ......"

"No, as far as I can see...... As far as I can tell, there are no wizards in Mesopotamia. Skeeter had always refused to admit her Animagus abilities, even though she knew that Maca was the one in the know.

"Really?"

Since the old wizard Bossa had left a good impression on Maca, he didn't want the other party to get involved. After all, the fact that wizards from many countries are involved in something is unlikely to be a good thing no matter how you think about it - the more friends the better, even Maca thinks so.

"Do you know what they're discussing?" "Besides, who is the dominant party?" he asked. ”

Although this alchemy competition is attracted by the magic community of many countries, there are also many countries that are not very interested in fighting from the beginning. Maca is now worried that some people, although they are indifferent on the surface, want to secretly play tricks and toss some things that are difficult to clean up.

"It's heavily guarded, and I don't ...... any specific information," Skeeter shook his head, but said cautiously, "but I got some snippets of their plan to get into the game...... As for their ultimate goal, it is, of course, the legacy of Mr. Nicol Lemay. ”

The woman said she had gotten "some snippets", but she didn't say it right away, apparently planning to wait here for Maca's promise.

Seeing that she put on a posture of not seeing a rabbit and not scattering an eagle, Maca didn't bother to talk to her, and immediately nodded.

"Exclusivity, day one—I agreed." He said, "Provided, of course, that these so-called 'snippets' of yours are true!" Let's start with that, I'll take a closer look at it here, understand? ”

"Oh, of course! And I'll make sure it's reliable, because it's what I've heard directly from the wizards—" Skeeter said happily at once, "then, the first point is 'inside and outside'......"

There's no need for Maca to lie to her, Rita Skeeter knows it all too well. If Maca was willing, she could even use violence to coerce her to tell the truth, not to mention that Maca still seemed to have a handle on her.

So, after receiving Maca's promise, she immediately began to tell the latest information she had obtained. Although it was only a small part of the other party's plan, it was undoubtedly very useful information, and Maca listened carefully.

It wasn't until Skeeter had said everything she could say that Maca had her eyes half-closed, and she fell into a moment of deep thought. After a moment of reflection, the Skeeter woman offered to go back to the side hall of the Great Hall.

"I see," Maka said, "your information is indeed very useful, and I will have someone inform you on the day the inheritance is opened." ”

He watched Rita Skeeter, whom he had known this time, leave the small room, and then walked over to the table.

Whatever the Iranian wizarding community is trying to do, at least the game itself needs to be well prepared. The contestants are one thing, and the judges are the other, and they all need to be treated with caution.

"Mr. Hohenheim, folks," Marca said with a smile as she returned to her seat, "to keep you waiting. ”

……

If Maca's side is the deceit of the adult world, then the contradiction between Alexander and Ens can only be regarded as a simple play between children.

Due to the fact that in order to test Neville's medicine before, Alexander suddenly broke into the small circle of senior students, and he and Harry have also had a lot of intersections recently.

Right now, they are enjoying a lunch that is more or less sumptuous than usual in the auditorium, which is just a wall away from the side hall where the participating delegations are located. If it is said that it is borrowed from the light of the event, it is not impossible.

It's a pity that the abundance is the abundance, but today's dishes always make people feel that something is not quite right.

"Ahem, I said, can someone try this dish first? Once you've tasted it, tell me if you can eat it......"

At the Gryffindor long table, Ron was holding up the fork in his hand, his face full of hesitation. He was pointing to a plate of black-looking unknown dishes.

"You'd better take a look at this one than that......" Harry said dryly, covering his mouth, "what kind of bug is this?" It's still moving...... This...... Is this really edible? ”

"These are the specialties of the African magical world......"

Hermione's face was visibly blue, and she hadn't even picked up her knife and fork, still resting on either side of her plate. But she is still trying to show her extensive knowledge, introducing these suspicious dishes to her friends.

"Harry, you're talking about bamboo worms, the book says they're highly nutritious......" she cleared Harry's doubts, and then said to Ron on the other side, "The plate in front of you is...... Not...... I'll go to the bathroom first. ”

Hermione couldn't say any more, as she suddenly felt a churn in her stomach and covered her mouth. Under Harry and Ron's concerned eyes, she suddenly stood up and dragged her limp feet straight to the side porch.

"Hey," Ron thought for a moment, and suddenly looked diagonally across from him with a smile, "Alexander, or ...... Can you help me try it? ”

“…… I...... I didn't offend you, did I? ”

On the other side of the long table, Alexander, who was munching on bread with his head down, did not even raise his head. Because today's lunch was so impactful, he didn't have the courage to look at the table anyway.

"Ron, don't bully Alexander—" Harry said as he looked at the plate of bugs again, grabbing a piece of bread and nibbling on it, "I don't have much appetite anyway, but I have to fill my stomach, right?" By the way, Alexander, I heard that you plan to teach yourself the ancient magic script? ”

"Huh?"

Alexander, who had a mouthful of bread, nodded vaguely when he heard this. He swallowed the juice before continuing.

“…… Oh, yes! But that's hard...... There's a lot to memorize. ”

"When Hermione comes back, you can talk to her, and she should be able to teach you how to learn." Harry asked, but wondered, "But why would you want to learn Demonic?" At first, there were a lot of people who went to the class for Maca, but there were few who really planned to learn it! ”

"Hmmm......"

Alexander took another sip of the juice, apparently hesitating. He was hesitating whether he should talk about Ens in front of these seniors.

Although his relationship with Ens has deteriorated a lot in recent days, there is no friendship between the two, at least there is a "common secret" of lucky chocolate. The matter of Navi's drug test must not be said, and in order to keep this secret, the best thing to do is not to spread anything between the two of them.

"Ancient magic scripts are indeed very complicated and boring......" Alexander thought about it again, and finally said slowly, "But since Professor McLean is so powerful, it must not be wrong to learn from him, right?" ”
