For some time after that, Harry seemed to be a very dangerous figure, and he could get a lot of complicated eyes wherever he went.

Even Hermione and Ron took advantage of the light and became a part of everyone who hid.

Gradually, those gazes turned into ridicule.

In the last few days before the holidays, some seemed to be taking taunting Harry as a new pleasure.

After all, Dumbledore only said that he would not let them ask questions, and he did not say that he would not be allowed to do anything else.

For example, Malfoy and his two henchmen. He always went to Harry's neighborhood and discussed the contents of the newspaper in a loud voice.

Harry would argue at first, but after several days of doing so, he decided not to do this useless thing anymore, and instead chose to throw a book in Malfoy's face.

Harry has been depressed these days.

First being taken away by the Death Eaters without warning, then witnessing and participating in Voldemort's resurrection, and the orchestration in the newspapers, so many things piled up, Harry had long wanted to find a chance to vent his frustration.

Malfoy's recent style has given him a good opportunity.

As if it had been discussed, Ron and Hermione did not hesitate and joined the battlefield directly, targeting Crabbe and Goyle.

Caught off guard, the three Malfoys were directly stunned.

But this was just the beginning, as more and more people passed by, the news was quickly spread, and then there was a big scuffle between the two academies.

In the narrow corridor, everyone tacitly agreed not to use magic, but chose a more direct fist,

The school hospital was packed with people that day, and Madam Pomfrey's wand was almost smoking, so she could barely conjure up enough beds and boil up three cauldrons of healing medicine overnight.

Because there were too many people, in order to make room for him, Filch, who originally needed to be treated for a few more days, had to be discharged from the hospital early.

As a result, both Gryffindor and Slytherin were deducted 500 points, the most in recent decades.

But no one cares about this.

Although 500 points sounds exaggerated, they also have to have so many points, and with the efforts of Snape and Sirius, their scores in both schools have long been at the bottom.

Not to mention five hundred, one hundred is enough.

But that didn't affect Kyle.

Presumably, he didn't participate in the confrontation with Fudge that day, and his name was not mentioned in the Daily Prophet.

In addition, Dumbledore didn't say anything, so except for a few friends around him, no one else knew where he had gone during the time he disappeared in the labyrinth.

"I told you what you think."

In the Hufflepuff common room, Kyle looks at Fred and George, who are sitting there and grinning, and casually tosses them a bottle of white essence.

"Does that need to be said? Of course, it's to fight against the forces of the mysterious man. ”

Fred took the white fresh essence, lifted his sleeve and wiped it on his arm.

"I dare say that among the mysterious people's Death Eaters, there must be Slytherins." George also smeared a little white essence on his face, "At least Malfoy must be indispensable." ”

"I'm not talking about that." Kyle said, "I mean, why didn't you go to the school hospital when you got injured, but came to me instead, I had only treated Fantastic Beasts before." ”

"There are too many people in the school hospital." Fred said with a nonchalant expression.

"And we're also a minor injury, so there's no need to go there......"

"You didn't see Madam Pomfrey, it's scary." George said with a sigh of relief.

"It's strange how good her face can be when so many people are hurt......" Kyle muttered.

He glanced at the two of them, and their injuries were indeed not very serious, and they were basically bruises caused by bumps.

For this kind of injury, Bai Xian Essence actually doesn't work very well, but the problem is that he doesn't have a completely suitable healing potion here, so let's make do with it first.

"Malfoy, Crabbe, Goyle......" George continued, "these three names were on the trial list more than a dozen years ago. ”

"I must have seen it that day." Fred asked.

"Presumably, but the Death Eaters were wearing masks at the time, and I didn't see them."

Kyle shrugged, "I went a little late and missed a lot, Harry should be aware." ”

"Ah, that's right." George shook his head, "But Headmaster Dumbledore won't let us ask him." ”

"And Dad wrote to us and said let's stop pestering Harry."

"You said we'd ask him how he was tomorrow when we're on the train." Fred suddenly thought of something, and said excitedly: "When the school is out for holidays, it must be no problem." ”

Cedric next to him looked at them a little speechlessly...... You can't ask when you're in school, so it's okay to wait until the holidays?

But there does seem to be some truth to that.

On the last night before leaving school, Kyle and the others go to the auditorium for a banquet.

At the door, he also bumped into Harry, who had a bandage on his arm.

As the protagonist of the fight, Harry was only allowed to leave the school hospital until just now.

However, looking at his appearance, he didn't feel sad at all, but rather happy, probably because Malfoy not far away was also dressed in the same way.

……

This year's banquet, as usual, was filled with flags representing Hufflepuff.

Kyle won the Triwizard Tournament, and in addition to the prize money of 1,000 Galleons, Dumbledore also gave him 200 points.

It also made Hufflepuff a deserved No. 1 finish, and a fifth House Cup winner, equalling the previous Slytherin record.

Sirius and Professor Moody, who had been missing for many days, were sitting in the classroom seats, talking to Dumbledore, and Snape was sitting next to Professor McGonagall with a gloomy face.

And Lady Maxim, who had also returned, and sat there quietly discussing something with Hagrid.

It must have been the giant's business, after all, the Ministry of Magic would definitely not send an emissary to contact them, but Dumbledore had to.

As for the candidates, only the two half-blood giants, Hagrid and Ms. Maxim, are the most suitable, and they should act during this holiday.

As Kyle was thinking, Dumbledore suddenly stood up from the teacher's seat, and the Great Hall fell silent.

"Another year." Dumbledore looked at them and said, "Tonight, I have something very important to tell you all.

"The Ministry of Magic has repeatedly asked me to keep this matter a secret, but I think I should tell you the truth."

All eyes were on him.

"Haven't you always wondered why our janitor, Mr. Filch, is in the school hospital?

"That's because he was attacked by a crazed Death Eater."

"Death Eaters?"

Everyone talked about it.

"How is this possible......"

"Why do they dare to show up in school?"

“……”

Dumbledore held out his hand and motioned for everyone to be quiet.

"And what's in the Daily Prophet, I can tell you, it's all true, not Harry's imagination.

"That Death Eater disguised himself as Filch and took Harry Potter out of school and with his master, who is Lord Voldemort!"

At this point, the Great Hall was completely fried, and everyone stared at Dumbledore in horror and disbelief, thinking that they had misheard.

He was just a Death Eater just now, why is it suddenly on Voldemort now?

Dumbledore had to raise his voice with magic to barely drown out the constant hum below.

"And I'll tell you, Voldemort, has returned." He exclaimed:

"I know a lot of you don't want to believe it, or are shocked by my claims, but here's what I've seen with my own eyes.

"I can't convince myself to hide this truth from you, because avoiding it won't solve anything, you can be suspicious, you can scoff at my words, but remember, be ready at all times."

Everyone in the Great Hall looked at Dumbledore, and every face was filled with shock and horror.

They couldn't believe it was true.

At the Hufflepuff table, Cedric and Connor, who had known about it for a long time, were silent, but more people had mixed expressions.

There were those who believed in Dumbledore, and there were those who did not.

For example, Mikel is completely inclined to Dumbledore, as a Muggle-born wizard, he has only heard about Voldemort, and he is not too afraid, so he still prefers to believe the headmaster.

But Ryan was struggling, he had heard about Voldemort's deeds, and he knew how terrible the war was more than ten years ago, and he subconsciously resisted the news of Voldemort's resurrection.

But he also trusts the principal, and in this situation, Ryan struggles for a moment and doesn't know what to do.

He didn't say a word until the end of the banquet.
