In just one day,. L made many people understand that after the terrible fifth year of Hogwarts.

The lights in the common rooms of the four colleges were not extinguished overnight until the next day.

At the same time, this day is also the day when the last competition starts.

The breakfast table was bustling with activity, and the owl delivering the letter almost covered the ceiling.

Some people were celebrating the upcoming holiday season in advance, looking forward to the games that would start in the evening, but the fifth-graders were still as nervous as they were yesterday.

Just as Kyle was wondering whether to stay in the common room or go to the library today, Professor McGonagall happened to walk up to the Hufflepuff table.

"The warriors are going to meet in the classroom next to the auditorium after breakfast." She said.

"Are you going to start?" Susan Bones on the side hurriedly said, "But Professor, don't I remember that the game didn't start at night?" We have exams in the morning. ”

"I know, Miss Bones." Professor McGonagall glanced at her, "It's a private matter for the Warriors, and it's not about the game. ”

"Well, I'm sorry professor......" Susan nodded.

Professor McGonagall didn't say anything more, and turned to leave.

After a while, after everyone had breakfast, Connor and Cedric went to the greenhouse to take the herbal medicine class exam.

Kyle gets up and goes to the room where the wand was tested, and Fleur follows him.

By the time they pushed the door open and entered, Krum had already arrived early, and he was quickly speaking Bulgarian with two dark-haired men, who seemed to be his parents.

The man, like Krum, had a distinctly hooked nose.

Fleur's mother also came, she took Gabrielle by the hand and walked quickly towards this side, and Fleur hurriedly greeted her.

In front of the fireplace, Diana was standing quietly, looking at Kyle with a smile.

"Your dad is a referee, so it's not appropriate to come here." She explained quietly.

"I understand." Kyle nodded.

While Chris gave him a score that was perfectly fine, it would be a bit of a hassle to let the other Warriors or their parents know about it.

After all, no one can guarantee that they won't think much about it.

"Is it okay for you to come to school?" Kyle whispered, "I mean, there's quite a lot of people here. ”

"Absolutely." Diana laughs and says, "It's not my job to be completely out of contact with other people, it's just that when we have a task that requires strict confidentiality, we try not to contact anyone else as much as possible." ”

"Then you don't have a mission now?"

"Yes, it's just not that important...... And it's the last event of the Triwizard Tournament after all, and I always have to check it out. ”

Diana said with a smile.

The two talked for a while in front of the fireplace, and Kyle, seeing that Diana was always looking at the portraits on the walls, consciously or unconsciously, and that there was a look of nostalgia in his eyes, offered to take her to the castle.

Diana agreed.

Then they walked out of the classroom and towards the door that led to the auditorium.

"I haven't been back for more than a decade." Diana looked at the portraits and stone statues on the walls around her and said, "It's still the same here as when I was in school, it hasn't changed at all. ”

"Didn't you come once when I was awarded the Order of Merlin of the Second Class?" Kyle asked, remembering seeing Diana coming.

"It was a different time, and I didn't have time to walk around the castle as leisurely as I do now."

Kyle then takes her to the Hufflepuff common room.

Because it's exam time, there's no one here.

Diana looked at the barrel-like room and the sun-drenched lounge and nodded in satisfaction.

"That's good." "When I was in Slytherin, I could only see the Black Lagoon from my window, and I was completely different from here," she said.

"We're also close to the kitchen." Kyle laughs and says, "It's right next to it, right out the door." ”

"......I know," said Diana with a smile, "your father always brought me cookies and snacks, and I ran out of dresses when I graduated." ”

Kyle's eyes lit up, he wanted to hear more details, but Diana was reluctant to say.

Then they went for a walk on the warm grounds.

Kyle shows her the carriage at Beauxbatons and Durmstrang's ship, but Diana is not interested in it.

Instead, it was the beating willow that stopped her, and according to Diana, when she was in school, the beating willow was much smaller than it is now.

"Hey, Kyle."

Hagrid's voice came from not far away, "Now for the exam, why are you outside...... Oh, Merlin, are you Diana? ”

"Hello, Hagrid......" Diana greeted him familiarly.

This surprised Kyle. "You know?"

"Much earlier than I knew you." Hagrid strode over and said with a smile, "Back then, only Chris and Diana would come to see me in the Forbidden Forest, and I remember that Chris was quite fond of eating the rock crust cakes I made. ”

"With all due respect, Hagrid." Diana laughed, "He just thinks it will save time studying those magical beasts, after all, a piece of rock skin cake will keep him from having to eat for the whole day." ”

"I thought he liked the smell." Hagrid looked a little lost, but only for a moment.

That was more than a decade ago, and it's just a memory to say it now, and whatever the reason, Chris did "like" the rock crust cake, which is good.

At noon, Kyle proposes to go back to the castle for lunch, which he expected Diana to refuse, but she agrees.

By the time the two of them arrived at the castle auditorium, it was already full of students.

Everyone looked at Diana curiously, but there was no surprise, because they had already met Fleur and Krum's parents before they cared about it.

"She's pretty, isn't she?" Susan and Hannah muttered, "No wonder Kyle is so good-looking......"

"yes." Hannah nodded approvingly.

By the time it was time for lunch, Connor looked more nervous than he had been yesterday.

She didn't read any more books, but sat there solemnly, taking small bites of food on her plate, but several times she poked her fork out of it.

Fortunately, this situation did not last long.

After about five minutes, Diana was on her feet.

"I'm going to go to your dad and talk about when I'm going to pick up Molly and them."

"Do you want to go now?" Kyle stood up as well, "Then I'll send you." ”

"No, you don't." Diana shook her head and said, "You eat slowly, leave me alone." ”

Then, with an inexplicable smile, she left the auditorium.

It was only then that Connor let out a long sigh of relief, as she glanced at the steak that was about to be poked into minced meat, picked up the pumpkin juice on the table, and drank it down.

Kyle poured her another glass.

"Why didn't you tell me sooner that your mother would be coming." Connor looked at him and said hesitantly, "I mean...... We'll greet her ......."

"Actually, I only found out in the morning." Kyle shrugged, "You were still on the exams. ”

He could understand Connor's feelings.

Truth be told, if Snape had sat across from him to eat, he probably wouldn't have been able to eat a bite.
