In the past few days, nothing has happened, but many people's mood cannot be calmed down.

Ever since he was spoiled by Albert last time, Hagrid has been thinking about the dragon egg, can he really get the dragon egg that Albert said?

Although Hagrid didn't know exactly how expensive dragon eggs were, he liked dragons and knew that it would cost a lot of money to get one.

It had always been Hagrid's wish to raise a dragon, and the thought that his wish was likely to come true made him feel inexplicably anxious, and he often wandered back and forth in his cabin, smirking.

Unbeknownst to Hagrid, however, he himself had become a source of trouble for others.

Not long ago, Quirrell, who managed to get the dragon egg, was also upset, because Hagrid showed no sign of leaving Hogwarts.

This wasn't good news for Quirrell, who was getting worse and worse.

His body was really running out.

Except for the first time he was possessed by Voldemort, Quirrell had never smelled death like he did now, and the joy of obtaining the dragon egg was gone.

He's really dying!

However, Quirrell wasn't completely insane because of his near-death, perhaps because he knew he had a way out, a way out that Voldemort had left him.

Hunting unicorns and sucking their blood to keep them alive would be Quirrell's last resort.

At the moment, the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor was still secretly spying on Hagrid, waiting for the other party to leave Hogwarts and wait for the opportunity to come.

Compared with the previous two, Hermione, who was shown off by Albert's commotion, did not explode because of this, but felt more and more that Albert's body was surrounded by a mysterious aura.

Perhaps, he was posturing.

Perhaps, he is like a treasure waiting to be discovered.

Hermione never told Harry or Ron about this, and she followed the agreement between the two to keep Albert a secret.

I don't know if Hermione was absent-minded in the knockout round, or if she was really unlucky, she met Truman, the strongest opponent so far, and was directly crushed by 2:0, and reluctantly stopped in the quarterfinals.

Ron had been lamenting that Hermione had been eliminated, and he had thought that Hermione would be able to fight his way through the odds to win the final wizarding card tournament and get ten Galleons, but the result was ......

I always felt that Ron regretted losing the game more than Hermione.

Harry didn't care about the wizarding card tournament at all, it didn't matter to him whether he won the championship or not, and as for the reward of ten Galleons, it didn't matter at all, he wasn't short of money.

Lately, Harry's mood has been similarly irritable.

Because Professor Quirrell's face was getting paler and his body was getting thinner. Harry feared that the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor would be pressured to compromise with Snape and tell him how to pass the mechanism that guarded the Philosopher's Stone.

"Harry. Hermione hesitated for a moment after listening to Harry's words and said, "I think your worries are unwarranted. ”

Fifth wheel?

Harry's face was shocked and puzzled.

"Do you know something?" Ron whispered after looking around to make sure no one was eavesdropping.

"Are we really the only ones who know that someone is trying to steal the Philosopher's Stone?" Hermione asked in a low voice, "I mean, did the professors involved in protecting the Philosopher's Stone, and even Headmaster Dumbledore, really know that someone was trying to steal the Philosopher's Stone?"

Harry and Ron looked at each other, neither spoke, and listened quietly as Hermione continued.

"No way, right!" Hermione said with a deep breath, "After all, it was almost stolen from Gringotts. And, I think there must have been a reason why that stone was put here, and I never thought Headmaster Dumbledore was confused. ”

"How old is Headmaster Dumbledore?" asked Ron nonchalantly.

"Probably...... It's over a hundred years old!" Hermione replied uncertainly.

"Even you have to admit that the headmaster is indeed old. Harry made this clear.

"Perhaps, Headmaster Dumbledore is a little older, but he doesn't get confused, and ......," Hermione shook her head, "Albert also thinks that the Headmaster put the Philosopher's Stone in the school for other purposes. ”

"He told you?" Harry couldn't help but look at the Gryffindor table, where Albert was presiding over the final round.

"Well, he thinks there's a reason why that stone was put in the school. Hermione hesitated, but whispered, "Besides, I think he probably knows how to subdue Lowe." ”

"You think Albert might know how to subdue Lowe?" Harry looked at Hermione with a shocked look on his face and said eagerly, "But...... Hagrid probably wouldn't tell anyone but Dumbledore. ”

Albert had a good relationship with Hagrid, and he seemed to be well aware of Hagrid's keeping Louwe. Hermione, noticing the shock and confusion on Harry and Ron's faces, reminded in a whisper, "It is said that Albert also knew how to prophesy, and if he really knew how to divination through a crystal ball, it would not be strange that he knew how to subdue Lowe. ”

"If, I mean, if Anderson wants to steal the Philosopher's Stone!" a very ridiculous thought suddenly crossed Harry's head.

"He wouldn't do that?" Hermione shook her head, denying Harry's words.

"I'm just saying if. Harry didn't dwell on it, he knew that Hermione had a little admiration for Albert.

Ron also looked sideways at the place where the final was taking place, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he didn't know what to say.

The Wizard Card Contest is coming to an end.

Among the students competing for the championship in the final round, it was not Shanna, but Ravenclaw's genius Isobel and Hufflepuff's prefect Truman.

The hapless Shanna met Isobel in the semifinals and was eliminated 2:1.

Although it is said that the final championship final is a best-of-five game, the two only played three games, and Truman lost three games in a row and ended in a miserable defeat, and he was a little suspicious of life in the end.

"I knew it was going to be like this. Katrina said expressionlessly, it was false to say that she was not envious, but after all, it was her sister who won the victory, and she was still happy for the other party.

Isobel's victory was entirely expected by Katrina, and it has always been that way.

As long as Isobel wants to, he will always be a winner, no matter what he does.

"Is it true that some people say you can count the number of times you've played a wizard card with both hands?" asked Lee Jordan with a microphone as Albert handed over the championship prize to Isobel.

"No, I occasionally play the Wizard card, and Albert can testify to it. Isobel gave Albert a charming smile, "He taught me how to play wizard cards, and I remember him saying that wizard cards will definitely be popular all over the wizarding world, how can you not know how to play wizard cards as a student." I was able to win more because I learned from Albert an understanding of the Witcher card game while playing cards with him. ”

Of course, they are completely unaware that these words of Isobel are pure nonsense, just to avoid being too shocking.

"It seems that you have not lost unjustly. Diggory reached out and patted Truman on the shoulder and comforted.

Truman looked at the runner-up prize in his hand, stuffed the bag of candy he had bought from Duke Bee into his pocket, and went to help Fred and George distribute butterbeer to everyone.

Albert recruited several seniors who knew how to use the Renewal Charm and asked them to take turns casting spells on the oak barrels and serving them endless butterbeers.

The Wizard Card Contest ended with laughter and clinking glasses.

Outside the hall, Professor Quirrell looked at the students in the hall drinking to celebrate the successful conclusion of the wizard card game, and he always felt an inexplicable irritability in his heart.

"Quirinus, maybe we should talk. Snape appeared beside Quirrell without warning, staring blankly at the scene in the hall and speaking quietly.

"Okay, okay!"

The back of Quirrell and Snape leaving happened to be seen by Harry, and the savior secretly wanted to follow and eavesdrop, but naturally Snape discovered it without accident.
