The tool used for broadcasting was broken by Rove, but Rita was not alarmed, her specialty was the pen, but her mouth was weak, and she could not use her ability to turn the clouds and rain.

Rita sat on the edge of the pool, shaking her stocking-wrapped legs a little provocatively, and said with a smile:

"Mr. Scamander, you don't like radio, so let's just write a text-only report, I'm good at writing stories.

Hmm, you don't need a wand to release lightning...... Powerful wandless spellcaster? ”

As soon as Rita Skeeter finished speaking, the green quill began to write, the tip of the pen deftly gliding across the parchment.

"No, Ms. Skeeter, you're mistaken, it's not you interviewing me today." Rove smiled slightly and said softly, "It's me interviewing you." ”

Rita was really stunned this time, and the quill stopped in mid-air.

Rove didn't pay attention to Rita's head-scratching gesture, but looked her in the eye and asked in a cold voice:

"Not long ago, someone bought information from you...... Want to know the location of Nicol Lemay estate, right? ”

Hearing the young man's words, Rita's pupils shrank at first, and then quickly regained her composure, and said with a smile:

"I don't even know where Nicol Lemay's estate is, so how can I sell information?"

"If you don't know...... So how did you get that group photo the summer before last? The corners of Rove's mouth hooked, and he sneered:

"Your rumors have caused me trouble for a long time, and I haven't pursued you, but don't blame me for being unkind when I send it to the door today.

Truth be told, I don't want to be rude to you, but Ms. Skeeter, you'd better be honest, or I don't mind using some unconventional means against you. ”

"Unconventional means?" Rita was radiant, stared at Rove's handsome face, licked her lips, and sighed:

"I like to go off the beaten path...... Don't have pity, kid, show me how rude the famous Scamander can be...... oh come on baby！ ”

Before Rita's words fell, Rove reached out his right hand like lightning and twisted the wrist that held her wand, and then he pressed his five fingers!

Rita's wrist felt like it was pinched by iron tongs, and her wand fell to the ground with a thud.

Rov lifted her right knee up and hit Rita in the abdomen, and she immediately crouched on the ground with a pale face, her body curled up and cramped, her eyes were already full of tears, and she almost thought she was going to die.

Rove, who didn't pity the jade at all, twisted the faucet and rinsed his hands that were not very clean after going to the toilet.

He shook off the water droplets, and remembered that he didn't have a tissue, so he squatted down, used Rita's expensive robe as a rag, and carefully wiped the water on his hands, and then said softly:

"Are you satisfied with my service, ma'am? Do you want me to step up? ”

Rita, who was squatting on the ground with her hands on her belly, raised her head and gritted her teeth: "You dare to beat me?!" ”

"Isn't it normal for a guy like you to spread rumors, stir up confrontation, and do everything for the sake of newspaper sales?"

Rove looked at Rita, who could no longer maintain her composure, and said calmly:

"You can shout at people, it doesn't matter if you scream at your throat...... But you sneaked in for an interview without permission, and you said the Aurors you shouted were arresting you, or me? ”

There was a hint of unwilling annoyance in Rita's eyes, and she used her sharp nails to scratch Rove's face, but the boy easily dodged it.

Rove grabbed Rita's big wavy curl, lifted it up, and then slashed at the woman's neck with a knife that nearly fainted with Venus in pain.

I said...... I said......"

Rove let go of Rita's curls, smiled, and said earnestly, "It would have been nice to have done this earlier, why suffer so many crimes." ”

Rita covered her neck, her face full of pain, and said with a sad face:

"The summer before last, I followed the wizards attending the funeral and determined the approximate location of Nicol Lemay's estate, but I was unable to enter it due to the Loyalty Charm.

I also sell intelligence...... I didn't see the man either, they all traded by letters......"

"It's you." Rove narrowed his eyes, but he didn't expect Hermione to guess correctly.

"If that person contacts you again and wants to buy any information, you can tell me."

It was Peter and Voldemort who bought the information, and although Peter was dead, Voldemort was still alive, so maybe he would find Rita again someday.

Rita rubbed her neck and asked cautiously, "Who is that person?" ”

"You won't want to know who he is." Rove stood up and announced, "Alright, my interview is over. ”

Rita Skeeter...... You can mess with me in the newspapers, but be prepared to suffer the consequences, my anger is not something you can bear. ”

After Rove finished speaking, he walked away and never looked back.

Rita sat on the wet ground with both legs limp, her purple stockings and pants wet with water stains, and she didn't care, just gasped.

After a while, Rita stood up with the pool, she took out the makeup mirror from her bag, retouched her makeup, regained her composure, and said excitedly:

"A boy who has a hard time getting it...... I like it though. ”

Rove walked briskly out of the bathroom and toward the conference room.

Many people are afraid of Rita, who thinks that being targeted by her is like a plaster, and that she will find out secrets and write choreographed articles, and her reputation will be ruined.

But Rove is really not afraid, he knows that this woman is an illegal Animagus, and he relies on turning into a beetle to eavesdrop on information.

As long as there is this handle, it is enough for Rove to hold Rita and make him obedient.

Don't look at Rita's bounce now, she will feel better in the future.

Rove walked down the hallway and returned to the conference room, by which time most of the delegates had already left, leaving only Dumbledore and Karkaroff.

In addition to this, there was one more person in the room.

Rove looked at the familiar figure and said in amazement: "Madame Maxim, why are you here?" ”

Maxim, who was wearing a purple satin robe, turned around and saw Rove, and smiled:

"Rove, you're still at the German Ministry of Magic, I thought you'd be gone...... I was invited by Dumbledore to come to the meeting. ”

Rove snorted and was about to say goodbye and leave, when Dumbledore beckoned:

"Rove, I'll introduce you...... This is Professor Karkaroff, the principal of Durmstrang. ”

"Hello, Professor Karkaroff." Rove walked over and smiled, "We've just met, and we've had a great conversation. ”

"Oh, what did you all talk about?" Maxim asked.

"The school ranking thing." "Karkaroff said Durmstrang was ranked tenth, far worse than Hogwarts, which was ranked sixth," Rove said. ”

"Well, you can't say that." Dumbledore waved his hand modestly, but he couldn't hide his smile and said, "Hogwarts still has work to do, not to the extent that it is far beyond its sister schools. ”

Karkaroff's face froze, he did say these things, but it was obviously used to reject Scamander's transfer of words, this kid didn't mention it at all.

He was about to retort, but Rove spoke first, pointing to a large wooden box inlaid with jewels on the table, and asked:

"What is this?"

"Goblet of Fire."

Maxim smiled and opened the box, took out a roughly cut wooden goblet, handed it to Rove, and said:

"It's used to select the brave to compete in the Triwizard Tournament."
