Poisoned Eggs at Hogwarts

Chapter 221: Selection of Warriors

Today is a big day for Hogwarts, for no other reason. Tonight, the Goblet of Fire is about to select the four warriors of the house.

The Halloween dinner seemed to be much longer than in previous years. The students did not focus on the carefully prepared dishes. The students in the auditorium kept looking up, and every face was full of anxiety and anxiety. expect.

Finally, the golden plate returned to its spotless state again, and the voice in the auditorium suddenly rose a lot.

Immediately, the tall figure of Dumbledore stood up in the middle of the teacher's bench, and the auditorium suddenly became silent.

To be reasonable, Iger still very much hopes that this Goblet of Fire can be successfully held until the end, because in this way, other schools will also hold the Goblet of Fire five years later, and I can open it again...

It doesn't matter if you open a cross-border business or something, the big deal is to open a branch in France and Germany, and the profit from the opening is enough to cover the cost.

Beside Dumbledore, a group of teachers and representatives of other colleges were also watching with anticipation. Ludo Bagman was all smiles, winking at the students below from time to time. It is very likely that he will avoid himself and gamble with the students.

How can this be?

Thinking of this, Iger looked unhappy.

Do him!

"Okay, the goblet is about to make a decision." Dumbledore said cheerfully: "I guess it will take about a minute. Listen, after the names of the warriors are announced, I hope they go The top of the auditorium, then walk along the staff desk, into the next room—”

Dumbledore pointed to a door not far behind him: "They will receive initial guidance there."

As he said that, he took out his wand and turned it back in a big way. Except for those candles in the pumpkin lantern, all the other candles were extinguished, and the auditorium suddenly fell into a state of darkness.

Behind Iger, a slender black tail slowly penetrated into Hermione's robe through the dim environment.

Hermione blushed, and then gave Iger a hard look, but didn't do anything else. She simply leaned against Iger and discussed with Iger in a low voice who would be selected.

Suddenly, the Goblet of Fire burst into dazzling light, brighter than anything in the entire auditorium, and the blue-white flames bursting out of activity were very dazzling,

The students below were reluctant to look away and waited quietly.

"Soon..." Ron muttered, looking at his watch.

The flame in the goblet suddenly turned red, crackling sparks shot out, and then, a tongue of flame shot up into the air, and a piece of charred parchment flew out from it—everyone in the auditorium held their breath took a breath.

Dumbledore caught the parchment and held it far away so that he could see the words on it by the light of the flames, at which point the flames in the cup returned to blue and white again.

"The champion of Durmstrang..." Dumbledore's voice was clear and powerful: "It is... Viktor Krum."

Sparse applause rang out, except for the Slytherin students who clapped their hands meaningly, the other students were completely indifferent, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward for a while.

Even Ron, Krum's fanatic fan, simply clapped his hands at this time. It seems that Krum's inexplicable offense to Egger caused the students of Hogwarts to resist him.

"He's going to die..." the twins muttered and whispered, and there was a burst of suppressed laughter from time to time. The two were discussing how Iger would cheat him.

"Great, Viktor!" Karkaroff roared loudly, but he looked a little embarrassed, and the indifference in the auditorium exceeded his expectations.

After two or three seconds, the polite and embarrassing applause in the auditorium disappeared, and people's attention was once again focused on the goblet.

A few seconds later, red flames gushed out again, and another piece of parchment jumped out of the cup under the impetus of the flames.

"The warrior of Beauxbatons..." Dumbledore looked at the note and said loudly: "It's Fleur Delacour!"

"It's her, Ron." Harry yelled, but Ron didn't hear his words clearly. At this time, there was warm applause everywhere in the auditorium, and Harry's yelling did not attract the attention of others.

"Look, they're all disappointed." Hermione leaned on Iger's shoulder with a ruddy face, and said softly.

"No, it can be said that I am very sad." Iger nodded, in his eyes, a girl from Beauxbatons was crying with snot and tears, but the other party was beautiful, and Iger was hesitating whether to show some warmth Take care of each other.

When necessary, it is not impossible to sacrifice oneself for others, dedicate one's life or something...

After all, I have learned so much Lei* spirit in my previous life, it would be a pity if I have nowhere to use it...

When Fu Rong walked into the small door, the auditorium became quiet again, and then, another red flame spewed out.

Dumbledore reached out and grabbed the note: "The warrior of Kunlun Hall... is Jiang Xuanzhong..."

Surname Jiang? Iger was stunned. Could it be Mr. Jiang's great-great-great-great-great-grandson or something?

The applause sounded again in the auditorium, and Hermione looked at You Mengyu with some disappointment: "Didn't you sign up?"

"No..." You Mengyu shook her head, then looked at Hermione and laughed: "Before the start of school, I asked Teacher Yao to help me with the transfer procedures, and Professor Dumbledore expressed his willingness to accept it, so when I wait until next year, I will be considered a student." Official transfer student."

"It's incredible..." Hermione was a little surprised: "Hogwarts has never had a transfer student."

"That's because Hogwarts only accepts students with British nationality." Iger muttered softly: "But as long as you have money, these can be solved."

You Mengyu nodded, and the two agreed: "That's right!"

Of course you're right, it's not your money that was spent...

Iger couldn't stop complaining in his heart.

In the distance, the boy named Jiang Xuanzhong stood up, bowed slightly to the applauding people around him, then turned and walked into the small private room next door.

Iger noticed that the boy was very tall and not handsome, but he was very good-looking, with sharp eyes and a very high-spirited feeling.

Iger thinks this boy gives him a pretty good feeling. In fact, Chinese people who go abroad in this era have a kind of indomitable spirit. Similarly, this era is also a generation that shoulders the rise of China, and it is precisely because of the hard work of people in this era After laying the foundation, China will develop rapidly in the next two decades.

After Jiang Xuanzhong also walked into the next room, the auditorium became quiet again. This time the silence was filled with an almost palpable excitement, because next, it was the turn of the Hogwarts warriors.

The Goblet of Fire turned red again, sparks shot out, and tongues of flame shot high into the sky. Dumbledore pulled out the fourth parchment from the tip of the tongue of fire.

"Heroes of Hogwarts..." Dumbledore's eyelids twitched slightly...

"Hermione Granger!"

There was a strange silence in the auditorium, and as the twins came back to their senses, the next second, a burst of excited shouts erupted from the long Gryffindor table.

For a while, the entire auditorium was extremely lively.

Iger also looked at Hermione, who was still blushing beside him, in a daze, and the other party was also in a dazed state.

Withdrew his tail calmly, Iger gently grabbed Hermione's little hand and walked forward.

There were cheers and whistles everywhere.

Karkaroff's complexion was ugly, and Madam Maxim's complexion was not very good either.

"You voted for him?" Dumbledore looked at Iger suspiciously.

"No..." Iger smiled wryly and shook his head, there really isn't one.

So, being selected means that Hermione really has the ability and strength to participate in the Goblet of Fire...

It even overwhelmed many senior students who signed up for the competition!
