Standing at the door of the shell-shaped building, Sirius stared coldly at Malfoy's group, Lupin with his wand in hand, vigilantly guarding the other side, ready to respond to a possible attack at any time.

This is the bottom of the Black Lagoon, and surrounded by a group of mermaids, of course Malfoy will not attack, he is just killing time and does not want to go in.

Malfoy's original plan was to get into the water, find a place to cat, and resolutely not come to Mermaid Village, let alone enter the building in front of him.

But who would have thought that Sirius would not talk about witchcraft, and directly skip the foreplay and bring them here, it is too despicable.

Malfoy greeted all the women of the Black family, except his wife, Narcissa.

Sirius, seeing that they were reluctant to go in, finally showed an impatient expression and said:

"What's the use of wasting your time in there until this time tomorrow?"

Malfoy glared at Sirius and swam into the room, followed by Goyle, Crabbe, Edda Avery Jr., and Alecto Caro.

The door was shut, and the group entered a room carved with murals of various magical creatures.

Through the magic curtain, Malfoy had long known that the murals would "come to life."

In the next second, the mural really rippled and rippled gently, and the mermaid on the painting walked out of the mural.

According to the previous rules, a mermaid would appear for every person who came in, and there were five of them in total, which meant that there would be five mermaids.

But to Malfoy's amazement, when the number of mermaids reached five, it did not stop, and there were still mermaids "resurrected".

When the entire room was filled with merfolk, they finally stopped appearing.

Malfoy looked at the fifty merfolk surrounding them, swallowed his spit, and scolded:

Sirius Black...... Falk Squid!! ”

……

The Triwizard Tournament "Death Eaters" is still ongoing, and the students have the opportunity to go to Hogsmeade after the "Student Division" competition.

Rove didn't plan to go, he planned to take Shirley and Hermione to the Ravenclaw Chamber of Secrets to carefully check if there was any documentation about the mermaid statue.

Although Messira says that Gryffindor stole the statue of Mermaid Village, it is limited to the statue of Palselope, and where did the statues of Siren and Skulla come from?

Gryffindor also said that he would put what he had taken from the mermaid village in a place marked by mermaids, and why did it appear in Ravenclaw's tomb?

While Rove was busy, he suddenly received a letter from Margaery, asking him to meet him at Hogsmeade.

Margaery had been keeping an eye on Rita Skeeter since the end of the Ball, and had not been heard from for months.

This will receive a letter from her, and Rove did not hesitate, taking Shirley and Hermione with him, and riding to Hogsmeade in the Thestrals.

At this time, walking on the noisy streets of Hogsmeade Village, Ron, who looked gloomy, whispered:

"Harry, I'll definitely pay you back the five Galleons I borrowed from you, but I'm afraid I'll be in arrears for a while."

"Forget about it." Harry waved his hand, "It's like I bought you a Christmas present." ”

"But at last year's Quidditch World Cup, the panoramic telescope you gave me was already overdrawn for my Christmas gift for the next ten years!" Ron blushed.

Harry was dumbfounded for a moment, he had long forgotten about it, he thought about it, and had to say:

"Then I owe it first, and I'll pay it back when you graduate and work, and let's go to the Three Broomsticks Bar for a drink, shall we? I'm in for a treat. ”

Harry knew that Ron had always liked Mrs. Rosmerta, the proprietress of Three Broomsticks, and that going there for a drink would make him a little happier.

Ron was in a good mood and said, "Go ahead." ”

The two of them arrived at the Three Broomsticks Bar, and when they pushed the door open and entered the house, Ron couldn't wait to find Mrs. Rosmerta.

However, instead of seeing Rosmerta, he is attracted to a young witch in the corner.

The witch leaned against the window, revealing her pink arms like white lotus, her thick blond hair falling naturally down her shoulders, and she was dressed in a beautifully ornamented white robe, almost elaborate.

She still had a bloody lollipop in her mouth, but it didn't look childish, but it complemented the scarlet lips, exuding a huge aura of charm.

The presence of the witch drew the eyes of the entire bar, and made Mrs. Rosmerta look eclipsed.

Harry and Ron immediately recognized that it was Rove's sister, Margaery.

At Margaery's side sat Rita Skeeter, and when Harry saw Rita, he was stunned at first, and then he strode over, and exclaimed:

"Hey, look at what you've done!"

Rita Skeeter turned around and saw who was coming, and her eyes widened behind her jeweled eyes.

"Harry!" She suddenly smiled, "Long time no see!" Are you going to come over and have a drink with me? ”

"I'd rather be close to the fire dragon than to you!" Harry said angrily, "Why are you slandering Hagrid like that in the article?

You made him lose his job, and now he doesn't dare to come back to class. ”

Rita raised her eyebrows and smiled:

"Slander? I'm not slandering him, I'm just reporting the truth and telling my readers the truth, and that's my job......"

"Seek truth from facts?"

"yes, isn't Hagrid a half-blood giant?" Rita shrugged, "Where did I say something wrong?" ”

"Who cares if Hagrid is a half-blood giant?" Harry shouted, "We all like him, we don't hate him at all, and you're describing him as abnormal!" ”

The whole bar fell silent at once, and Mrs. Rosmerta looked out from behind the bar—she was pouring mead into the jug, which was overflowing, and she didn't notice it.

Rita Skeeter's smile flickered slightly, she quickly opened her crocodile leather handbag, pulled out her shorthand pen, and asked:

"Would you like to tell me what you know about Hagrid, Harry? Your puzzling and deformed friendship, and the reason behind it.

Did you see Hagrid as a father because of a lack of fatherly love in your childhood? We all know that giants mean brutality, has Hagrid ever beaten you, or threatened you with words?

Don't be afraid, speak up, and I'll help you get justice! ”

Trembling with rage, Harry pulled out his wand to teach Rita a lesson, but Ron grabbed Harry's arm tightly and dragged him out of the bar.

Rita wanted to chase it out, but she glanced at Margaery, who was calmly licking the lollipop next to her, and didn't dare to move.

This woman is a complete demon!

The door was quickly pushed open again, and Rove walked into the bar with Shirley and Hermione.

Margaery, who was holding her cheek with one hand, waved to Rove: "Here! ”

The three of them walked towards Margaery, then sat down in their chairs.

Rove glanced at Rita, then looked at Margaery in confusion and asked, "Why is she here?" ”

"I asked her to come." Margaery said, taking out a few pieces of parchment from her pocket, handing them to Rove, and winking:

"You guys take a look at this first."

Rove took the parchment, and just glanced at the contents, his pupils dilated instantly, and he raised his head and looked at Rita with a cold look in his eyes.
