The second game ended without a hitch.

Ron had a great performance today, the Weasley twins taught Ron how to make dolphin cookies, and the dolphin cookies that Ron ate today were all made by himself, so there was no problem in terms of rules. He got the highest score in the game because he was the first to find Ginny and the first to take people out of the water.

Fleur and Cedric also performed well, but Cedric was faster than Fleur, and in the end he scored a little more than Fleur.

Krum brute-cracks the puzzle, leaving him with only a slightly lower score than Fleur.

After two games, Ron had a slim lead in points, with Cedric and Fleur tied for second and Krum at the bottom.

After the competition, the students and spectators once again had an open-air BBQ banquet.

Zhang Xu walked around the venue and found that there were no acquaintances today, so he returned to his stove and began to enjoy tonight's banquet.

Unlike other people's barbecue ovens, today Scarlett has a mandarin duck pot on the stove, and next to the plate is a plate full of fat beef rolls and beef shutters and other hot dishes.

When Zhang Xu came back from a walk, the soup base in the pot was just boiling.

Scarlet cast an expulsion spell on their table to keep no one else from disturbing the three of them.

Fleur and Gabrielle went to celebrate with Beauxbatons' classmates, and now in addition to Zhang Xu and Scarlett at this table, there was Tonya who couldn't stand the "I understand" expressions on her classmates' faces.

Unlike the other elated crowds, the atmosphere at Zhang Xu's table was a little gloomy.

The low pressure came from Tonya, and she felt that her face was too big today.

Not only was it regarded as a treasure for Krum, but it was also carried out of the water with a chair in the end, and Tonya would not have agreed to the principals' request if he hadn't been relieved that Gabrielle would go underwater alone.

"It's like this, don't be sad, fortunately, there is no endless road." Scarlett comforted Tonya after scooping up a few meatballs.

"You just have to resolutely refuse him, and you must not be indecisive and make him think that he still has a chance." Scarlet continued, "Just let him cut off all thoughts, and then stop calling him for a while, and that's it. The result was a good opportunity to reject him. ”

Zhang Xu was eating from the bowl and scooping the pot on the side, not interjecting in the conversation between the two of them.

Zhang Xu thought while eating, and found that Krum was quite unlucky this time, the results of the competition were at the bottom twice, and the final trophy was estimated to be out of play, and he wanted to chase a girl, but the girl was not interested in him.

If Krum had been younger, he could have shouted "Don't bully the poor boys" and then found a cliff to jump off.

In the end, it was Zhang Xu who carried the drunk Tonya to Scarlet's dormitory.

When Zhang Xu put Tonya on Scarlet's sofa, Scarlet said to him, "Do you want me to leave for a while, so that you have a chance to ......"

Zhang Xu didn't agree with her words, reached out and rubbed her head, and said: "I'm retreating, don't disturb your hundred-year relationship, in fact, it's not bad for you to marry a wife and live the rest of your life." ”

Two seconds later, Zhang Xu flew out of the dormitory door and "snapped" in the corridor opposite the door.

When Zhang Xu rubbed his nose and walked down the stairs, he met Snape, whose face was a little colder than before.

"Good evening, Professor Snape." Zhang Xu greeted.

Snape didn't reply, just stared at Zhang Xu with the eyes of a police officer looking at a thief.

"Since the beginning of the school year last year, the African tree snake skin in my office has been stolen 26 times, do you have any clue?" Snape asked.

I had a clue, but I couldn't tell Snapming.

Zhang Xu shook his head and said, "No, if I need it, I will ask you directly." I haven't heard of anyone using it lately to secretly concoct potions. The Weasley brothers: The materials they needed were all mail-ordered from Diagon Alley. ”

Snape stared at Zhang Xu for a long time before nodding, he knew that if Zhang Xu needed materials to refine potions, he would ask him directly.

Snape nodded, and just as he was about to leave, Zhang Xu stopped him.

"Professor Snape, I have a way to find the thief." Zhang Xu said.

"What's the solution?" Snape asked.

Zhang Xu reached out and took out the treasure bag, then took out a small bottle of white powder, and handed it to Snape.

"This potion is colorless, odorless, and easily soluble in water, and it doesn't react with other potions, nor does it change the properties of other potions." Zhang Xu introduced, "As long as you sprinkle some on the African tree snake skin as bait, when the thief steals it and makes it into a potion to take, the thief who eats it will be exposed." ”

"How will it react if you eat it?" Snape asked, taking the vial, staring at the bottle.

"Why don't you try it yourself?" Zhang Xu said with a smile, "Anyway, if you take a small amount, you can't die, and after it works, it will only make people lie down for a day or two at most." ”

"Thank you." Snape had no intention of trying it, put the medicine in his pocket, thanked him, and left.

After Zhang Xu returned to the dormitory, he came to the balcony and sat on the rattan chair, took out the map of the living point and studied it.

Barty Crouch Jr. must have run into Snape's office and stole the African tree snakeskin during today's open-air dinner.

At this moment, the map shows that he is staying motionless in his office, probably refining the compound potion.

Putting down the map of the live spot, Zhang Xu decided to start closing the net.

He pit Barty Crouch Jr. once before, and didn't let Harry Potter become a warrior, and Zhang Xu has been preparing since then, wanting to see what he has behind.

As a result, after four months of waiting, Barty Crouch Jr. has not made any special moves.

In addition to often going to Snape's office to steal things, he acted like a normal professor, teaching students every day and then correcting homework.

Every Saturday night, like Lupin, he goes to the Room to instruct the students.

Although he didn't know what preparations he had made, or if he hadn't done anything, Zhang Xu decided to solve this hidden danger first, and then he would just wait with the truth elixir.

After solving the impact of Barty Crouch Jr., it is natural that the two-hole socket man who lives in his house is exposed.

It would be good if Voldemort was exposed, and let Dumbledore clean him up in advance, maybe it would have a miraculous effect, and maybe Voldemort would not be able to fully resurrect by then.

When the time comes, Barty Crouch will be saved, and he will not be afraid of Minister of Magic Fudge covering the lid.

Fudge dared to kill Barty Crouch Jr., but he definitely didn't dare to attack the old one, and the impact would be too bad.

In this way, Fudge will have to admit that Voldemort has returned, and he will not have the heart to send someone to Hogwarts to seize power, right?

For the sake of a better school life in the next school year, Zhang Xu didn't want Umbridge to come to Hogwarts to make trouble.

Although the wheel of history fell into the ditch twice in three days, its inertia is still very large, so Zhang Xu must be prepared several times to avoid being caught off guard.

If Umbridge really came next school year, there would only be two places for her, either the vacant Defence Against the Dark Arts class or the Muggle Studies class that Zhang Xu substituted for.

For Zhang Xu, this position of acting professor is still very useful, and he doesn't want to lose this position before graduation.
