Chapter 249 Is This The Sadness Of Licking A Dog?
After giving everyone some time to digest, Crouch continued to introduce the next project.
"And the first official project will be held on November 24th. This project will test your courage. Now I will not tell you the specific content of the competition. All the students and the jury will see your performance. .
"The warriors are not allowed to ask or accept any help from other teachers in completing the competition, and your only weapon is the wand in your hand. Due to the high intensity and long duration of the competition, you will be exempted from the final exam. 99
"That's all I suppose, Dumbledore?"
"Yes," said Dumbledore, looking at Crouch with concern, "you really don't want to stay at Hogwarts tonight, Barty?"
"Sorry, Albus, Ludo and I have to go back to the Ministry," Crouch declined Dumbledore's invitation, "It is a very busy and difficult time, and I will send my assistant Percy to stay here. , we'll leave first."
Dumbledore nodded when he heard the words. When Crouch and Bagman left, they inadvertently looked at Alvin for two seconds. Although 13 did not convey any information, Alvin understood that the other party was telling him that he had not been captured. Soul curse control.
"Okay!" Dumbledore clapped his hands, "It's very late today, and thank you very much for your cooperation. I think all the warriors need to rest, don't they?"
The principals didn't want to stay here either, they left the room with their warriors, Fleur gave Alvin a good night kiss, gave him a wink and followed Maxim.
Cassandra originally wanted to say hello to Alvin, but when she saw Fleur like this, she clenched her teeth and left without saying anything.
For a while, only a few people from Hogwarts were left in the room.
"Harry, we are rivals again." Cedric reached out and shook Harry's hand.
The original Cedric was also a little unhappy, after all, the only glory was destroyed by Harry.
But after listening to Sirius's analysis, he also knew that Harry couldn't help himself, and this kind of competition was also a very dangerous thing for Harry.
"Okay, Potter, Diggory, you go back to rest first, we still have some things to deal with. 99
Snape's voice was so cold that Harry couldn't help but glance at him.
When he became a warrior himself, Snape should be very angry. Thinking of this, he was also a little heavy and his heart became a lot better.
Alvin wanted to leave too, but was kept by Dumbledore.
"Dumbledore, I don't agree with Potter's participation."
Snape took the lead in expressing his point of view, and Sirius couldn't sit still, "Do you think there is no face for Slytherin students to participate in the competition? Otherwise, there are four warriors in each school, so you will always have a chance. of."
Ignoring Sirius' ridicule, Snape still stared at Dumbledore, "I think it's not just him who will be embarrassed if he plays at Potter's level."
"Severus.
McGonagall looked at Snape displeased. Although she didn't think it was a good thing for Harry to participate, Snape's words were still too hurtful.
Old Deng ignored their quarrel, but looked at the goblet of fire that had been brought in.
"Gaunt, do you see anything?"
Hearing this, Alvin took out his wand and reached in front of the Goblet of Fire. He tapped the body of the goblet lightly, and a wisp of black smoke was pulled away from the Goblet of Fire.
"It smells of Confusion Curse, if I'm not mistaken, it seems to be the Imperius Curse?"
Alvin said with some uncertainty, he didn't know whether his judgment was correct.
Dumbledore also stepped forward and pushed his crescent-shaped eyes, his wise eyes trying to find more clues from the black smoke.
Unfortunately, his conclusions are consistent with Alvin's.
"Headmaster, can the Imperius Curse actually be cast on magic items?"
Alvin had really learned a lot, he had never thought about using the Imperius Curse in this way.
Dumbledore also explained, "The Goblet of Fire is a very powerful magical item, and he has a part of his own mind, which is very similar to your alchemy tool. And it is because of this power that it will be affected by Imperius interference."
Nodding clearly, Alvin also understood what he meant.
At the moment, Dumbledore also has a headache, why can't Hogwarts be calmer every year?
Now he has no clue, Dumbledore has no idea who is secretly calculating Harry, but he can be sure that this person has bad intentions, and let Harry participate in the Triwizard Tournament to achieve some ulterior motives.
Seeing Sirius and Snape still arguing, with Dumbledore's temperament, he couldn't help but be upset.
"Severus, stop here.
First stopped Snape who was about to speak, and Dumbledore said to Sirius: "Sirius, Harry is far from a qualified warrior, Harry will ask you for this time.
Sirius nodded confidently, "Don't worry, I will train Harry to be a qualified warrior.
After saying this, Dumbledore waved more than 197 and let everyone leave.
"Alvin!"
Snape stopped Alvin who wanted to leave, and the two entered an abandoned office.
After a long silence, Snape finally said, "Who do you think put Harry's name in the Goblet of Fire?"
Alvin shook his head, and now he is only guessing, and he still needs to wait for her to tell him what the truth is.
Snape also knew that Alvin couldn't possibly know, and he just asked casually without any hope at all.
There was another silence before Snape finally spoke again.
"Harry's safety is up to you, Dumbledore has too many things to do, he can't do everything.
Hearing Snape's plea, Alvin looked at him pityingly.
Is this the sadness of licking a dog? Even if he hates Harry so much, the person who cares most about Harry's safety is still him.
The fierce opposition in the waiting room just now was also for Harry's safety.
Suddenly Alvin's heart moved, Snape was so worried about Harry, did he already know something?
Thinking of this, his eyes involuntarily looked at Snape's arm, where his Dark Mark was located.
Looking a little unnatural by Alvin's gaze, Snape subconsciously covered his arm.
