Chapter 235: Triwizard Tournament

Hermione looked at the two men around her who were still eating wildly, sighed heavily, and then, as if she had found a savior, hunched over and cautiously came to Brie's table.

"Brie, this food is made by Hogwarts slave house elves!" Hermione covered her mouth and squeezed out her voice in anger, her excited eyes fixed on Brie's face, expecting to see the same sympathy and reluctance in Brie as she did.

"Oh, that's outrageous." Draco looked at Hermione like a monster, but Brie patted her on the head, causing Draco to swallow the next words that mocked Hermione.

"Sit down, Hermione, you're so pale, you're hungry at first sight."

Brie handed Hermione her green apple pie, but Hermione just clenched her knife and fork and looked very disappointed.

"Hermione, I found out about wizarding slaves raising elves in my first year, and I don't like such an unfriendly state, but we are wizards who enjoy convenience, and we are not in a position to say anything high-sounding."

"Do you know Grindelwald, his original slogan was slave Muggles, rule the world with the power of wizards?"

"Huh?" Hermione was stunned, of course she had read the account.

Seeing Hermione like this, Brie took the knife and fork from Hermione's hand, elegantly cut off the green apple pie in front of Hermione, and handed it to Hermione's mouth.

"We humans can't solve our own problems, what qualifications do we have to save other species... Of course, Grindelwald proved his failure, and you can prove yourself right, but you should first figure out what house-elves need, what they can get, you can't bring them in with your own mind, it's unfair to them, you can't decide your life for them. ”

Just as Dumbledore decided Harry Potter's life, even though Brie did not choose to be friends with Harry, he still felt sad for Harry.

Hermione ate the food handed by Brie in a daze, and after choking and swallowing, she said silently, "Just like Buckbeak, as a member of the wizard, I know its situation, so I am not qualified and cannot save it... But I guess maybe the house-elves are different, and I want to try it. ”

Taking the knife and fork from Brie's hand, Hermione devoured it, she was really hungry.

"If the house-elves are guilty of sorcerers and not worth saving, then I will give up." Hermione blushed, and saw Brie handing over new food, she whispered: "Thank you, Brie, I always feel that I can't learn what you said at Hogwarts, there are still ideological courses in the Muggle world, Hogwarts can only rely on itself, this is too unfriendly to the growth of young wizards, no wonder there are so many dark wizards, and we Muggle-born wizards don't know what the real wizarding world is like, if we can live in the wizarding world after graduation?" ”

Hermione silently complained about the shortcomings of Hogwarts, and continued to eat food, but her spirit improved a lot.

"Winter!"

Just as Brie was able to eat, the doors of Hogwarts were suddenly pushed open.

"Boom!" Thunder and lightning pierced the night sky, and a blinding light hit the man who stepped into the halls of Hogwarts Hall.

】

Dumbledore immediately stood up and calmed the frightened little wizards, who had made this man's appearance too rough, or terrifying.

"This is the new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor." Dumbledore introduced.

"I think many wizards know him, he used to be a brilliant Auror."

"Oh, it's Moody!" Slytherin, who had always been known for his cold and quiet, exclaimed, and he hurriedly covered his mouth, looking away in horror at the sight of Moody's fake eyes and hideous knife marks on his face, not daring to look at Moody.

Moody snorted, visibly unfriendly to the Slytherin table, and strode down the hall to quickly take his seat in the Hogwarts professorship, without introducing himself.

"I'm sorry, Albus, I'm late." Moody twitched his tongue, but his face was unapologetic.

"Something went wrong with Mr. Crouch, and a little ghost came into his house, and I happened to pass by to deal with it."

Dumbledore smiled and said, "It's not too late, I've been pleasantly surprised that you're here." ”

Moody nodded, and when he saw the cold-faced Snape sitting next to him, he snorted heavily, as if he had a bigger opinion of Snape.

Seeing this, Dumbledore immediately said, "We should announce something important." ”

After Moody's arrival, almost all eyes were on him, and at this point Dumbledore stood up again, and this gaze came to Dumbledore.

"Looks like everyone has eaten..."

Dumbledore said in a loud voice, and with his words, the food on the table disappeared one after another, whether it was Moody, who was just about to use the knife and fork, or Brie, who was not full because of Hermione's interruption, frowned.

"I'm sorry to announce that this year Hogwarts will no longer be holding Quidditch and Mirage tournaments... Of course, we don't stop private club activities. ”

"Oh no!"

The faces of the little wizards below changed drastically, especially Draco and Ron, who were lovers of fantasy games, even Hermione's face changed drastically, but before the little wizards could protest, Dumbledore squinted his eyes and said loudly: "We will hold a tournament that has been sealed for decades!" ”

"This match will be played by the warriors of Hogwarts House, Durmstrang House, Beauxbatons House at Hogwarts Athletic......"

Draco looked surprised, he quickly thought of what kind of game this was, he leaned into Brie's ear and began to introduce it, at the same time, the little wizards below you also exchanged ears, it seems that there are not a few people who know about it.

"That's right, it's the Triwizard Tournament!"

With Dumbledore's decision, the little wizards cheered, the Triwizard Tournament was definitely a highlight in the history of the school, and it was one of the biggest honors that a young wizard could win during his time at school, which was much more meaningful than any House Cup.

Seeing the little wizards' reaction so excited, Dumbledore had to dampen the enthusiasm of the young wizards.

"Kids, kids, Triwizard Tournament is dangerous, and we have to make sure that the little wizards participating in it are capable enough to compete, so... Only young wizards over the age of seventeen will be able to participate in the competition, and the rules will not be revealed until October, when Durmstrang and Beauxbatons students arrive. ”

"Oh!" The little wizards wailed.

"It's a disappointment!" Draco clenched his fists and said indignantly, "Brie, if you go, you don't have to compete at all, just take the trophy away!" ”

"Dumbledore must not want you to play."

"Alright, Draco, I'm more concerned about when it's going to end now." He'd have to go to Dumbledore's office in a moment, which will delay him from going to the kitchen for supper.

Dumbledore looked at the little wizards who had calmed down a little and was about to leave, but Hagrid, who was at the end of the teacher's chair on the side, gave him a wet look and was very sentimental.

Dumbledore sighed slightly, and he suppressed the voices of the young wizards, "There is unfortunate news here, our Mr. Hagrid is no longer able to continue as the professor of magical biology at Hogwarts due to some events last year, but I think he can still serve as a teaching assistant for a while until the right professor is in place." ”

"Oh, Dumbledoreβ€”" Hagrid looked at Dumbledore with emotion, clenching a huge handkerchief in his hand, feeling like he was going to cry at any moment. He thought he was leaving Hogwarts after today.

"Mr. Hagrid will continue to serve as a guard of the Forbidden Forest after that."

When Dumbledore said this, Hagrid sniffed widely.

"Then let the prefect take the little wizards to sleep in peace."

Soon, the feast was over, and Brie headed upstairs.

"Brie, aren't you going for supper, I know you're not full." Draco asked, and Cedric was waiting for Brie.

Brie shook her head, left a word, and went upstairs.

"I'll have to go find Dumbledore first."

Watching Brie leave, Draco and Cedric looked at each other.

Draco said angrily, "Look at what Dumbledore did, Brie must be angry, this is a triwizard tournament, who knows when the next one will be!" ”

"I don't feel like Brie cares much about this game." Cedric scratched his head.

"No, you know what, you're seventeen years old, don't you want to participate?"

"Perhaps, but I don't think anyone will have a chance if Brie participates." Cedric chuckled, waved at Draco, who was still staring at the stairs, and walked in the direction of his dorm room, he was the president of the student council, and he wanted to take a leave of absence to go to supper with Brie, but it seemed that he still had to do something.

Here, Brie, who had just arrived on the eighth floor, saw Moody coming out of Dumbledore's office, with Snape leading the way in front of him, as if he wanted to show Moody about Hogwarts.

"Your room is on the other side...".

Snape looked at Moody behind him and snorted coldly.

"Dumbledore has something to do with me."

"It's the professor... You should learn to be polite, even if you don't like him. Snape glanced at Moody again, irritation and a hint of alienation in his eyes.

"Go back and rest as soon as possible, disobedient fellow." Snape quickly stepped down the stairs, not waiting for Moody at all.

Brie smiled, only to feel that Snape was really awkward, and he meant something......

Brie, who has read some reports, knows very well that Snape was accused of being a Death Eater by Karkaroff back then, but Dumbledore kept him and gave him a position as a Potions professor, while Moody was the most radical Auror at the time, and Crouch was a famous pair, and there were many dark wizards who died at their hands, and nearly half of the criminals in Azkaban were captured by them.

Of course, there are scars under the glorious deeds, one of Moody's eyes was blown out in a battle, and he replaced it with a magic eye, I heard that there is extraordinary magic, can see through small tricks, and his leg was amputated, but the wizarding world will not care about these small injuries, prosthetics can also make Moody live like a normal person.

"Brie Ode?" Moody stopped Brie, as if trying to put on a show and put on a professor's shelf to scare Brie, which of course Brie could see.

"I'm sorry... B (Barti Crouch II – Barty Crouch II)... Moody... Professor, I don't think I've anything to do with you, I'm going to find Dumbledore now. ”

Barty Jr.'s disguise is very good, but who asked Brie to make a positioning magic on him, Brie knew the true identity of this "Moody" when he appeared, but Brie didn't plan to expose it, nor did he plan to tell Dumbledore, some information was in his own hands, anyway, this was Dumbledore's opponent, and Brie was not obliged to help Dumbledore work.

"Cards!" Before Moody could say anything, Brie pushed the door open and walked in.

"Bang!"

"Heh..."
