Seeing Zhang Xu squirting out a sip of tea, Ron knew that he had made the wrong person.

Hermione tugged at Ron's sleeve and then stuck her head next to Ron's red hair and muttered something in a low voice.

Then Ron didn't dare to speak, for fear that he would guess wrong again.

"It's Professor Scarlett, right?" Harry asked in a whisper.

The gossip between himself and Scarlett Zhang Xu heard Zhang Qiu say. Ginny knew about it, too, and she had mentioned it to Harry. And Hermione didn't care about this, she just heard other girls gossip, and she wouldn't take the initiative to talk to Ron.

Zhang Xu also breathed a sigh of relief, if Harry was talking about Professor Sprout, he might have drawn his wand and hit someone.

"That's right, when Professor Scarlett moved his family east, their family received help from other families." Zhang Xu nodded and said.

The next thing was easy, Ron was still a good talker, and of course he chose to forgive in the end.

After tonight's business was over, and seeing that there were less than two hours left in the morning curfew, everyone returned to Hogwarts Castle through the tunnels.

The night was uneventful, and early the next morning, the students in the cafeteria were bustling with people, and everyone was discussing the final game that was coming at noon.

Furong was a little nervous today, and she had no appetite for eating, so Zhang Xu finally persuaded her to eat some.

After breakfast, the warriors who participated in the game went together to meet their relatives who had been invited to watch the game.

Zhang Xu also followed Fleur over and met with the Delacul couple.

Most of the conference rooms where everyone met were Zhang Xu's acquaintances.

When shaking hands with Mr. Dracul, Zhang Xu's paws were suddenly pinched by Mr. Dracule.

Seeing the eyes of Madame Delacour looking at him again, Zhang Xu estimated that Gabrielle had reported to the family.

After that, Zhang Xu said hello to Cedric's parents and chatted a few more words.

Ron's side is another neat family, in addition to the Weasleys, Bill and Percy, Charlie has also taken a leave of absence.

On Furong's side, there are some questions that are difficult to answer here if the Delacours ask, so after Zhang Xu greeted everyone, he left the rest of the time to them and stopped joining in the fun.

When Zhang Xu left the room, he ran into Harry, who had come with Ginny.

Harry saw that Ginny was coquettish with her parents, so he walked out of the castle with Zhang Xu, and he wanted to ask Zhang Xu about something.

As the two reached the foyer, they met Dumbledore with a box containing the Goblet of Fire, followed by Lady Maxime, Karkaroff, Ludo Bagman, and Barty Crouch.

After greeting a large group of people, Ludo Bagman, who had always been enthusiastic about Harry, said to Harry, "Harry, we are going to the maze and put the Goblet of Fire away, will you come with Zhang?" ”

Ludo Bagman, who was in charge of the Quidditch World Cup, lost badly, and he only got a respite in the first two games of the Triwizard Tournament, and it was only during the Quidditch match that he relied on Harry's excellent performance in the last game to give Hogwarts a big lead to end the game and finally reach the top, allowing him to fill the hole.

"It's not in order, Ludo." Barty Crouch said, with a straight face on the side.

Ludo Bagman took out his pocket watch and looked at it, then said, "It's okay, the game starts in a few hours, and Harry doesn't touch the other warriors before the game starts." ”

Barty Crouch didn't insist anymore and turned to the other three principals.

Zhang Xu thought that Dumbledore would stop it, but he nodded as well.

The hosts all agreed, and Madame Maxim and Karkarov, naturally, said no more.

After Harry excitedly agreed, Zhang Xu saw that he was idle, so he also followed the army towards the labyrinth.

The labyrinth, originally planned to be set inside the Quidditch pitch, was built next to the Quidditch pitch after a group of professors were stimulated to expand its size. During the game, spectators sit in the Quidditch pitch and watch the warriors in action through a water screen movie.

The labyrinth's hedges now grew to be twenty feet tall and six feet wide. The entire labyrinth covers an area about the size of two Quidditch pitches.

Walking to the maze, you can see that there is a thin layer of mist inside the maze.

This is the effect of the ** array designed by Zhang Xu, of course, he doesn't have such a strong magic to activate the ** array that covers such a large area, which he is responsible for designing and then building by Dumbledore himself.

"Are we going through the labyrinth?" Harry asked Dumbledore.

"Do you want to try this maze and then put the Goblet of Fire at the end of the maze?" Dumbledore said to Harry with a smile.

Harry's eyes lit up, and there was still such an .jpg to operate.

Ron was elected to the Warriors, and after two games were played, Harry was happy and envious of him.

Harry's restless heart also longs to be coquettish on the field.

But his enthusiasm was extinguished in the next moment.

"It's a pity that there is not enough time, otherwise I can let you try." Ludo Bagman said to Harry regretfully.

"But you can put the Goblet of Fire on the shelf at the finish line." Karkaroff said.

Others were noncommittal to Karkaroff's suggestion, and no one would object to such an innocuous thing without emotional intelligence.

What is it like to follow a group of GMs to brush the maze?

Harry wondered what Dumbledore would do when he entered the labyrinth and encountered obstacles. Is it to skillfully lead everyone to avoid obstacles, or to use his advanced magic to temporarily break down obstacles?

Upon entering the labyrinth, Harry's mouth twitched, which was not what he had expected.

With a wave of his wand, Dumbledore saw a staircase grow on the hedge that served as the partition wall of the labyrinth, and everyone climbed the stairs to the top of the hedge, and walked from the top of the hedge to the depths of the labyrinth.

The enchanted hedge could bear the weight of everyone, except that Madame Maxim felt a little narrow when walking, and everyone walked as if they were walking on a green path.

Harry looked at the obstacles under the hedge with curiosity and a little disappointment, wondering if he would be able to get through them.

"You'll have a chance." Zhang Xu patted Harry on the shoulder and said, "This maze will stay after the Triwizard Tournament, you can try it when the time comes." ”

Listening to Zhang Xu's words, Harry became excited again.

Originally, this maze would be dismantled after the game, but one day the professors drank tea and rested and chatted together after completing the layout of the maze that day.

When the other professors heard this, they felt that Zhang's words were very reasonable, so after some discussion, they reported to Dumbledore and kept the maze after the game.

It didn't take long for Dumbledore to sign his way.

Harry, who had followed a group of GMs into the middle of the labyrinth, soon found himself in the middle of the labyrinth.

It was a circular meadow with several intersections in the surrounding hedges, and in the center of the meadow was a marble pillar almost a man high, which was the shelf for the Goblet of Fire.

Dumbledore put down the chest containing the Goblet of Fire in front of the pillar, opened the box and said to Harry, "Harry, please put the Goblet of Fire on the shelf." ”

At this time, Zhang Xu, who was standing next to Dumbledore, heard Dumbledore say to him softly: "According to Barty Jr.'s confession after drinking the elixir, Voldemort's plan is for him to throw Harry's name into the Goblet of Fire as a student of the fourth school, so that Harry will become the fourth warrior." Then he would secretly help Harry achieve the final victory. He would then replace the Goblet of Fire with a portkey, and when Harry touched the Goblet of Fire, he would be taken to Voldemort's side. ”

Zhang Xu, who had long known about Little Barty's plan, nodded, and then asked Dumbledore, "So has the Goblet of Fire been checked?" Could it have been replaced with a portkey in the first place? ”

"It was checked when Barty Jr. was caught, and the Goblet of Fire was not tampered with." Dumbledore replied, "The chest where the Goblet of Fire was placed was newly enchanted, and only our three Headmasters could open it. ”

After listening to Dumbledore's answer, Zhang Xu frowned, and suddenly realized that something seemed to be wrong.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that Zhang Xu's expression was wrong, Dumbledore asked.

By this time, Harry had already walked to the front of the box, and was bending down to reach into the box to take out the Goblet of Fire.

At this moment, Zhang Xu's heart moved, and he put his hand on Harry's shoulder.

Immediately afterwards, with the sound of "biu", the person was gone.
