The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

A trace of astonishment appeared on Fleur's face. She never expected that Tom could dodge her sneak attack at such a close distance.

This is a confusion spell that is suddenly released when striking up a conversation at close range. Not to mention hiding, most people will not notice it at all. But Tom actually defended himself. How fast was his reaction? And judging from the state of the spell, he was still using the Iron Armor Charm - Fleur didn't see him reciting the spell or using a wand at all!

This was beyond Fleur's comprehension. Casting spells silently and without a wand should be something that only a wizard of Dumbledore's level could do, but it was a bit appalling to see it happen to Tom Yoder. Using Fleur is more willing to believe that this is the effect of some magic item on Tom.

"Despicable." Tom looked at Fleur's delicate and pretty face, a look of contempt flashed in his eyes.

This method depends on how you use it. Beauxbatons was really embarrassed. How could Goblet of Fire choose such a person to be its warrior? Is this something the Warriors can do?

Tom's look made Fleur a little embarrassed.

She also knew that what she did was quite bad. Tom was at least two years younger than her in terms of age. What she did could be called "an old cow eating young grass", and this young grass still had its owner!

But so what? Tom's excellence made her willing to take a chance. If it works, she can dance with the best boys in the three schools. You know, Tom is not only highly skilled in magic, but his face becomes even more handsome as he gradually grows, attracting the pursuit of many girls. He has received no fewer than ten invitations to dance parties these days. The girl dancing with him will definitely become the focus of the audience.

This was exactly what Fleur wanted. Being a proud person, she only pursues the best. She believed that she was the most beautiful witch, so she naturally had to be matched with the most handsome and talented wizard.

In her imagination, as long as Tom agreed in public, there would be no chance of going back. Unfortunately, all these plans were wiped out by an iron armor curse.

All this happened in just a moment. At this time, Hermione was kept in the dark because she was cut off from her vision by several girls. By the time she returned to Tom, everything seemed to be over.

When Furong saw the return of the rightful owner, her expression was stern. When she was about to leave, a tall figure appeared in front of her. She looked up and recognized her fellow warrior Cedric Diggory.

At this time, Cedric's eyes were confused. He stopped Fleur and invited her to the ball.

"Hiss!" Tom gasped. He was having great fun now. He knew that Cedric seemed to have invited Qiu Zhang before. If he danced with Fleur again...

This is to be called a scumbag!

Tom also understood that Cedric must have been accidentally hit by the spell that bounced off him, which was really an unreasonable disaster.

Fleur was startled, but when she came back to her senses, it seemed that Cedric was also a good choice? He is also one of the best wizards in Hogwarts, and dancing with him is not much worse than Tom.

"Of course." She nodded slightly and agreed to Cedric's invitation, "It's a deal!"

After she Shi Shiran left, Cedric looked as if he had just woken up from a dream. Only then did he realize that he seemed to have done a huge mistake!

"Merlin!" Cedric lamented and covered his face with his hands: "Why is this like this?"

As soon as he turned his head, his face turned pale because he saw Qiu Zhang looking at him with a half-smile.

"Listen to me and explain-" He wanted to say something, but Qiu Zhang simply turned and walked away.

"I hope you have fun with Miss Delacour!" She left such a sentence and walked away without looking back.

Cedric suddenly became depressed. He looked at Tom beside him and said bitterly: "I don't know how I could do such a thing! I'm really dizzy. I just couldn't control it at all." Own--"

Hermione frowned. She ate this food from beginning to end. She originally thought it was a story about a scumbag who has two different things, but when Cedric said this, it seemed that there was something else hidden.

From the symptoms Cedric described, it sounded like he was under a Confusion Curse or the Imperius Curse?

Seeing Cedric's lost expression, Hermione instinctively felt that something was wrong.

Was Fleur Delacour just talking to Tom? She suddenly realized something, and her face looked even worse now. She vaguely felt that Fleur was here for her Tom.

She glanced at Tom, who smiled at her.

"Fleur just tried to use a confusion spell on me, but it was bounced away by my armor spell. Cedric happened to be passing by at that time and was hit." He analyzed it and restored what happened.

Cedric was startled, and a trace of sullenness flashed across Hermione's face.

"Shameless!" She gave Furong the lowest possible comment, "You actually use these despicable methods! No, I have to——"

Tom grabbed her.

"The top priority is to help Cedric and Qiu Zhang make it clear so that they don't have any misunderstandings." Tom said to Hermione.

After hearing what Tom said, Cedric nodded repeatedly and held Tom's shoulders: "Yordel, please, I really need you to testify for me..."

Tom nodded, obligingly.

Seeing Tom's cooperation, Cedric and Hermione both looked pleased. Of these two people, one wants to recover his lost female companion, and the other wants to cause some trouble for Furong.

The two hit it off immediately and took Tom to chase Qiu Zhang.

Qiu Zhang walked in a hurry, and the three of them finally caught up with her in front of Ravenclaw Tower. This was not because the three of them ran fast enough, but because Qiu Zhang was stopped by Ravenclaw's knocker.

"Why is a hut so small but has enough space?" Ravenclaw's eagle ring asked a new question with familiar emphasis.

Tom rolled his eyes: he really should educate this knocker and let it learn to ask math questions.

Now Qiu Zhang's heart was like a mess, and he couldn't answer at all, so naturally he couldn't enter the common room.

"Even the smallest hut has enough space for a pair of lovers." Cedric followed breathlessly - Hufflepuff's lounge is on the underground floor, so Cedric had to climb the stairs. The level is slightly lower than the three Ravenclaws who often exercise climbing stairs.

But he reacted very quickly and blurted out the answer.

Qiu Zhang turned to look at Cedric, her eyes filled with tears.

"If there are three people, it's still not enough!" She said aggrievedly: "I was obviously the one who invited the dance first, how could you-"

"Listen to my explanation, she cast a spell on me!" Cedric explained hurriedly, and Tom and Hermione also testified for him, which made Qiu Zhang believe it.

"This is too much." Qiu Zhang looked unhappy, obviously irritated by Furong's actions.

"At least it means Cedric is good enough." Tom said a good word for Cedric.

"How shameless." Hermione rolled her eyes.

The misunderstanding was finally resolved. Qiu Zhang and Cedric, Tom and Hermione, the four of them returned to the auditorium talking and laughing.

It was already lunch time, and almost all the students from the three schools crowded in. Tom and Hermione found a place to sit down and waited for dinner to start. Not long after they sat down, a smell of fragrance came, and Fleur sat next to Tom.

Hermione's expression suddenly turned evil. She didn't understand where this woman's face came from, and she actually dared to appear in front of her?

This is why Hermione doesn't understand Fleur. In Furong's eyes, she just failed to strike up a conversation once. What does this mean? After a brief panic, she quickly adjusted her mentality. Anyway, you two haven't announced the results in public yet, so let me ask what's wrong? Even if you have announced it in public, it is my ability to win love with a knife! Although a little trick was used, this was his blessing!

This is what the proud Fleur really thinks.

"There are too many people, so I'll sit here first. Do you mind?" Fleur asked with a smile.

"Mind." Tom answered simply.

Furong:......

Her smile froze on her face.

what happened? It's annoying for you to say that! Fleur pretended not to hear and sat in her seat, causing Hermione to roll her eyes frequently.

At this moment, Cedric stood up and shouted at the long table of Ravenclaw House: "Cho Zhang, will you attend the Yule Ball with me?"

This voice was heard by almost all the students in the auditorium. Everyone was stunned for a moment, and when everyone came to their senses, everyone started to boo.

Fleur's face suddenly turned livid, and she felt sincerely angry: Cedric had agreed to attend the Yule Ball with her before - even though he was under the confusion spell, he had agreed in front of everyone, and now he actually Dare to break the contract?

Fleur was angry. But just when she was about to stand up and say something, Tom said to her with a smile on his face: "Fleur, you don't want other people to know that you used the confusion spell to force others to go to the Yule Ball with you, right? ? It is really disgraceful for the Beauxbatons warriors to do such a thing. Madam Maxime must not know yet, right? Do you need me to convey this to you? Just tell her that the Beauxbatons warriors actually did this. Something like this happened.”

Furong:......

Only then did she realize that speaking out about her behavior was always inappropriate and would damage Beauxbatons' image.

Fleur, whose weakness was taken advantage of, was forced to give in. She chose to keep her mouth shut and quietly watched Cedric invite Qiu Zhang to the Yule Ball.

Being questioned in public, Qiu Zhang blushed all of a sudden. She lowered her head and did not dare to look directly into Cedric's eyes. It was not until her best friends around her pushed her several times that she stood up coyly. , the little chicken nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and then immediately sat back in his seat.

"Wow!" The little wizards present all showed ambiguous smiles and started cheering even more energetically. The professors at the faculty bench all showed kind smiles and ate their food quietly.

Not everyone is happy, such as Harry, who now feels like a stray dog ​​wandering the streets and was kicked for no reason!

He really couldn't understand why Cedric would openly invite Qiu Zhang in public? Can't you invite me privately?

Harry didn't know what had just happened, nor did he know that he had missed an opportunity to invite Cho Chang.

Seeing Cedric and Qiu Zhang looking happy, Fleur felt very uncomfortable. She said angrily: "I really don't understand why some people would rather eat street food than enjoy a French meal?"

Tom glanced at her: "I think most people would choose to go to a restaurant for a big meal instead of fast food on the street, and Cedric is no exception."

Fleur didn't understand the meaning behind the words, she nodded blankly, "Yes, yes."

"So in Cedric's eyes, you are the fast food on the street!" Hermione sneered.

This sentence was so devastating that Fleur shut up in anger and never said a word to Tom and Hermione during dinner.

After dinner, the little wizards discussed the story between Cedric and Cho Chang enthusiastically. Tom glanced at Hermione beside him, and he found that although the girl didn't say anything, there was a trace of yearning in her eyes.

"Hmm..." Tom thought thoughtfully.

"By the way, I have something else to do-"

"You don't want to go on any adventures behind my back again, do you?" Hermione became alert.

"Of course not, it's about the Triwizard Tournament. You go back to the lounge first." Tom made an excuse and tricked Hermione back.

Of course he wasn't going to be busy with the Triwizard Tournament, he planned to give Hermione a little surprise.

"Okay, I'll wait for you in the common room. If you dare... you know the consequences!" Hermione raised her fist and threatened without any intimidation.

Then Tom gave up.

Hermione waited for Tom in the common room until almost midnight without seeing him return.

"Damn it!!!" Hermione stamped her feet angrily. She felt that Tom must have gone behind her back to do something dangerous again, and maybe he was fighting Voldemort now!

Thinking of this, tears of anger welled up in Hermione's eyes.

At this moment, a white light floated on the window of the lounge, attracting Hermione's attention. She walked to the window, opened it, and found that the source of the light outside was actually Tom's patron saint.

"What's going on?" After Hermione opened the window, the Patronus floated in and circled around her. She looked out the window in confusion, confused.

At this time, a ray of red light burst into the night sky, and finally bloomed in the sky. With a pop, a gorgeous firework exploded.

Immediately afterwards, points of light flew into the night sky one after another, and fireworks bloomed in the sky one after another, dyeing the night sky gorgeously.

The little wizards in the castle were woken up. They rubbed their sleepy eyes and came to the window. They saw an unforgettable sight: hundreds of light points rising into the night sky with long tails, exploding together to form a In a word -

Hermione, will you go to the Yule Ball with me?
