Chapter 61: The Goblet of Fire opens
Just a small eyebrow raise.
Zhang Xiao fully understood what Malfoy meant, and his gaze swept over Castrobusche, who came from the other direction, ready to deliver the note.
There are also students of the magic institute who are at a distance and salute respectfully to themselves, and "Akina Nakamori" is also among them.
Obviously, the identity of his little heavenly master was still leaked, and others may not know about it, but the magic institute must know about it.
After all, when the Daomen directly crossed the sea and broke the mountain and cut down the temple, killing the onmyoji and Shintoism and killing the little chicken, they hid aside and held the little quilt and shivered.
The deterrence is directly full!
Under the suspicious gazes of the others, Zhang Xiao came to the Goblet of Fire, took out the parchment with his name written on it and threw it in.
This scene surprised the young wizards, who had always thought that Zhang was definitely here with his friends.
Because it was Halloween, the decoration of the auditorium had changed again.
A swarm of live bats flew around the enchanted ceiling, while hundreds of tiny pumpkin figures squinted at every corner.
The deliberately funny goblins flew around the sky, trying to fly down and scare people, but no one cared about them.
Because all the attention of the young wizards is on the upcoming Goblet of Fire selection.
They were talking about who might make the Champions, or about the students at other schools.
Seeing Zhang and Harry and a group of them coming in, someone immediately shouted loudly:
"Zhang! Neville! Harry! You put the list in, didn't you? ”
After receiving an affirmative answer, it won a round of applause.
Seamus Finigan is also unexpectedly the favorite at Hogwarts.
He formed a team with a few other friends who were often prone to accidents.
It's called "The Art of Explosion", but Zhang Xiao insists that this phrase should be translated as "Art is Explosion".
Beauxbatons' students were lining up from the foyer, and among them was the girl who looked like a girl, and she was the first.
They took their seats under the command of Madame Maxim.
"Look at that girl, it's the one that looks like Mei Wa, I heard that it's called Furong, and someone has already talked to her."
With obsession on his face, Ron muttered, "She's so pretty—"
Suddenly, he turned his head and looked at his friends seriously: "You say, if I get the Goblet of Fire, will she date me?" ”
Harry Malfoy Cedric Neville looked at each other, and then seemed to react suddenly:
"No problem!"
"She doesn't date you, that's her problem!"
"Absolutely!"
"Lorron, she's going to date you!"
Zhang Xiao glanced at Hermione cautiously, but found that the little witch just rolled her eyes and sighed helplessly, without a little jealousy.
I suddenly felt that the whole world was very confused.
In the original book, Malfoy's wife is now Harry's little girlfriend, Hermione doesn't eat Ron's vinegar at all, and Harry and Cho Chang often get along in the club, but there is no spark.
Zhang Xiao sighed and ate breakfast with a little sorrow, maybe it was all her own pot
Hermione, who was beside her, suddenly pulled his sleeve and whispered:
"Zhang, look out of the door!"
Raised his head in some confusion, but saw Hagrid hiding outside the foyer, revealing half of his big furry face, greeting him frantically, and found that Zhang Xiao finally looked up.
Hagrid made a walking gesture, pointed in the direction of his hut, and lip-synched, "Come on."
Zhang Xiao, who didn't know why, could only pat Ron, who had already begun to imagine what his and Fleur's children were called, and Harry, who was helping Ron name him.
"Hagrid told us to go to his cabin, will you go?"
Harry thought for a moment and immediately stood up, "It's been a long time since I've been visiting Hagrid, so let's go together!" ”
By the time they had finished their breakfast and crossed the fields to Hagrid's hut, a quarter of an hour had passed.
Beauxbatons' huge powder-blue carriage was parked not far from the hut, and the giant horses that had led them over were grazing leisurely.
Again, as long as it's not human, you can leave it to Hagrid with confidence.
Harry knocked on Hagrid's door, and a muffled bark was heard in the room.
"It's finally here!" Hagrid opened the door and said eagerly, "I've been waiting for you for a long time!" ”
"We're so busy, Sea—" Hermione was halfway through her sentence when she suddenly paused, looking up at Hagrid, obviously speechless in surprise.
Hagrid wears a furry brown suit with a yellow and orange-red plaid tie.
He used a lot of machine lubricant or something like that on his head, and it looked like he had straightened his hair.
It didn't work out well, though, and he looked like a greasy-headed monster
He moved out of the way and let the young wizards in, Hagrid's hut had always been crowded and full of life.
A huge bed sits in a corner, covered with a quilt made of rags.
In front of the fire, an equally large wooden table and chairs were placed, and a large pile of cured ham and dead birds hung from the ceiling above the fire.
Noble squatted beside the stove and roasted the fire comfortably, and when he saw Zhang Xiao coming in, he moved his round body with great effort, moved a position for his titular little master, and opened his mouth to spew out a series of sparks to say hello.
Hagrid tugged at his clothes a little nervously, wiped the lube that had slipped down his hair, and said sadly, "I was going to tie a ponytail like Bill's, but it turned out that there was too much hair. ”
"Hagrid, why are you dressed like this?"
Harry asked, a little sluggish.
Zhang Xiao slapped her face suddenly, remembering that Hagrid liked Lady Maxim, and later it seemed that they really became a couple, and they went to find the giant together and fulfill Dumbledore's request.
"Madame Maxim?" Hermione asked suddenly, and cut to the point.
When they noticed Hagrid's face immediately turned red, like charcoal on a boiler.
"You really want to go on a date with Madame Maxim?"
Ron's eyes widened, he and Fleur's good life was still in his dreams, and Hagrid was already going to act directly?
"Hmm—it's very difficult." Malfoy looked serious, folded his hands behind his back, and circled Hagrid a few times. (Hagrid is uncomfortable with his eyes)
Malfoy's face was serious, and he said seriously:
"Madame Maxime was a delicate French lady with great taste, and the perfumes she used were the specialties of the shop, and they were expensive.
The clothes on my body are extraordinary and custom-made - by the way, I also have a lot of extraordinary custom clothes.
So, want to get her attention and get favored. IMHO, you need a makeover from start to finish! ”
Although Malfoy didn't like what he said, it was the first time that Hagrid thought the Slytherin boy so cute.
"Teach me!"
By the time they returned from Hagrid's cabin, it was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and Malfoy had spent a great deal of time designing a complete renovation plan for Hagrid.
Including several sets of clothes, dresses, and perfumes, he also wrote to ask the store he frequented to ask if he could customize a watch.
It's about the size of an alarm clock.
It has to be said that Malfoy, who has received a full elite education, is indeed Hagrid's best staff officer in this matter.
The rest, neither Harry, Hermione, nor Ron, could come up with any good advice.
Even Zhang Xiao is definitely inferior to Malfoy in this aspect, after all, dressing is a science.
The big man was so moved that he kept wiping his tears with a handkerchief that could be used as a tablecloth.
Just as they were about to go out, a light rain began to fall, and the group returned to Hagrid's hut.
Soon happy with their decision.
Because it was so comfortable—sitting by the warm fire, listening to the rain gently pounding on the glass window, watching Hagrid knit his socks and discuss the tournament.
They poured lots and lots of tea, and they ate whole plates of biscuits.
At half-past five, it was getting dark, and Ron, Harry, and Hermione all felt it was time to return to the castle for the Halloween feast and, more importantly, for the announcement of the school warriors.
"I'll go with you." Hagrid said, putting aside what he had knitted, "Wait for me a moment." ”
He did what Malfoy taught, ditching the bells and whistles to make himself look cleaner and neater.
The rest of the premium version needs to be ordered, which will undoubtedly take a long time.
When they walked into the candlelit auditorium, it was almost full.
The Goblet of Fire in the foyer has been relocated.
It was standing in front of the podium, in front of Dumbledore's empty chair, in a high-profile position.
Zhang Xiao noticed that several young wizards still had short beards on their chins, which obviously did not match their age, but he didn't care about their appearance.
On the contrary, they looked at the Goblet of Fire with great excitement.
"I want the 'Art of Exploding' team to be warriors!" As Harry, Ron, and Hermione sat down, they heard Seamus holding his wand, eager to do something, as if he was going to do something as soon as he announced that his team was Warriors.
Hermione held her breath, clutched her pounding chest and said, "Ah, we'll find out soon!" ”
The Halloween dinner seems to be going on for a lot longer than usual.
Perhaps because of the two days of feasting, the young wizards didn't seem to like the sumptuous dishes that were well prepared as much as they usually did.
The people in the auditorium kept looking around, and every face showed an anxious expression.
Everyone fidgeted, and from time to time they stood up to see if Dumbledore had finished eating.
Everyone was eager to finish the food on their plates and find out who had been chosen as the Warriors.
Finally, the golden plate returned to its original spotless state, and the voice in the auditorium suddenly rose a lot.
Immediately, Dumbledore stood up, and the Great Hall fell silent again.
Warriors, coming soon!
