I Was Spotted By Grindelwald and Went To Hogwarts

,!

"Daisy, do you need an anti-burp potion?"

Hermione asked slightly worriedly while patting the little white flower on the back.

"No, no need... burp... I think this will make me feel better... burp, better... it can relieve the tension - burp!" Daisy hiccupped several times.

Because she was unexpectedly selected to participate in the Final Four, the fourth-grade Miss Warrior was very nervous - she had been hiccupping for two hours straight.

Of course, Sean felt that this had something to do with her eating too much in the morning.

"How about a smaller lunch?" Sean asked tentatively.

"That won't work. Lunches are very rich these days." Daisy immediately and resolutely refused without even burping.

Sean: "..."

Hermione: "..."

Although he is very thin, his food intake has always been astonishing. Sean felt that Daisy and Hugo would have a lot in common.

Sean looked at the time and saw that there was still a while before lunch, so he stood up and said, "I'm going to look for Charlotte and Colton. After all, they have participated in the previous Goblet of Fire, so they can learn from it."

Daisy was about to stand up when she heard this, but she was stunned for a moment, then put her butt back down again and put her face on the table.

While hiccupping, he said lazily: "Forget it, Hiccup, you better go ahead, Hiccup... I'm worried that I'll sound more nervous. Remember when I get back... Hiccup, tell me..."

Sean secretly gave Daisy a thumbs up, and then nodded: "Okay, you two wait for dinner, remember to save a lamb chop for me."

After that, he left.

Hermione silently turned the pages of the book in her hand. The content written on that page was the topic she had been studying recently. However, even though she had been reading it for a long time, this page had not been turned.

As proud as she is, she had mixed feelings last night. First, she was surprised when Sean was not selected. She was shocked and worried when Sean was selected. Then Stephanie was also selected, and her mood was even more like sitting in a chair. It's like a roller coaster going back and forth.

At the end, when the ignorant and confused Daisy was also selected, Hermione's mood was extremely complicated.

This unexpected situation made her very worried for her two friends, but this new three-person team...

Even though she didn't want to admit it, Hermione was aware of the feeling of being left out.

She even felt that she couldn't keep up with Sean and Daisy.

Obviously the grades are very good, the relationship is obviously good, and they are still young...

But she didn't know why, she just felt like she was being excluded from the circle step by step.

What makes Hermione even more uncomfortable is that she knows clearly that this is not Sean and Daisy's fault, and her friends may also be involved in a conspiracy.

but……

Hermione didn't know how to describe the emotions in her heart right now. All she could do was to look the same as usual and not let her personal emotions affect her friend's important pre-game preparations.

With her face pressed against the cold table, Daisy quietly turned her eyes and took a peek at Hermione, who was flipping through the books in her hands and could not see the expression on her face.

After thinking about it again and again, Xiao Baihua decided not to say anything more.

After all, Hermione had been in a bad mood since the selection last night.

Although she tried her best to avoid showing herself in a bad state, her daze and frown from time to time still exposed her thoughts. Daisy and Sean had a good understanding and tried to bring up the topic of the Final Four as little as possible.

Especially about Stephanie, which Sean wisely never said once.

Including just now, he was going to talk to Stephanie about preparations before the game, but considering Hermione's mood, he chose to tell a little lie.

After walking through the corridor and coming to a deserted corner, Sean called directly to the wooden door of the Room of Requirement.

Before arriving at Stephanie's small room, Stephanie opened the door and stood in front of him before he could knock.

"Coming? Please come in."

"Well, good day, Stephanie." Sean walked in.

"Good day, Sean."

Stephanie led Sean inside. Perhaps some embarrassing things had happened between the two of them here, and the girl's face always had some blush unconsciously.

However, she hid her expression very well.

"I checked all the Goblet of Fire competition information that I could find, and the differences in the challenges don't seem to be big." Stephanie handed over a piece of parchment with the information she had already compiled on it.

After taking it, Sean read it and said thoughtfully: "The first project is usually related to powerful magical animals, while the second challenge is related to the harsh environment. The third project is quite different. , but the common point is that the remaining contestants have to compete at the same time, and generally face a duel situation."

Stephanie nodded: "It's roughly the same. However, after the re-organisation, the proportion of duels in the final event has been enlarged - for example, in the last session, the teams of Hogwarts and Nurmengard were almost equal in the end. Duel on the spot."

"Yes, we should try to collect as much information as possible about the contestants from other schools. However, the most important thing to pay attention to right now is the first challenge." Sean said.

Stephanie agreed: "Yes, the competition is a scoring system, not an elimination system. Every level is crucial. If our guess is not wrong, the first challenge is still related to magical animals, then..."

Seeing Stephanie's gaze, Sean smiled: "I am indeed quite good at dealing with magical animals, but I have to take into account the specific types of creatures."

If we follow the original story, the first level of Goblet of Fire is to obtain a golden egg from the claws of a fire dragon - that golden egg is also a clue to the second game.

Under normal circumstances, an adult fire dragon is a very big threat. Even Sean cannot guarantee that he can quickly establish contact with the fire dragon. However, the only difference is whether he can tame it on the spot.

Moreover, as the number of participants increases, the difficulty of a fire dragon will not be so high, and the organizers will definitely increase the difficulty.

This involves a very important point - pre-match questions.

In the original book, Hagrid quietly revealed the first fire dragon to challenge Harry, and also told Ms. Maxim at the same time.

Krum was also informed of the challenge, and Cedric was told the news by Harry.

In other words, the Goblet of Fire not only tests the strength of the contestants, but also tests the foundations of major magic schools, such as invisible strengths such as connections and knowledge.

Sean felt that the organizers and principals of each school basically acquiesced to the existence of this kind of cheating, just like the school rules of Hogwarts.

If you get caught, you broke the rules and accept the punishment. If you don't get caught, then everything is fine and it's not a violation.

When the first challenge project was highly related to magical beasts, Sean immediately thought of two people: Newt and Hagrid.

As members of Hogwarts, these two people will definitely not be directly involved in the project, but they know many people...

Do you have to find time to find out some information...

After discussing things about the Final Four with Stephanie, the two walked out of the Room of Requirement together.

As soon as they walked around the corner, they saw Hermione sitting alone at the railing of the corridor, playing with the yellow bird in her hand.

It's over, the lie I just told was caught...

Hermione also saw Sean and Stephanie coming out of the corner, and her expression became uncontrollably stiff.

Sean sneered and was about to speak when Hermione spoke first.

"Daisy went to the bathroom. I'll wait for her here. Sean, how is your message?"

"Well, it's okay. I heard a lot of news." Sean was a little embarrassed.

Hermione nodded: "Then you go to the auditorium first. If you don't mind, Stephanie, can we have dinner together?"

Stephanie nodded silently.

"Just in time for you to discuss preparations before the game." Hermione smiled.

Sean didn't know what to say for a moment.

Instead, it was Stephanie. She looked at it silently, and then said: "Well, if it is necessary, I will trouble you to give me some more advice when the time comes. Hermione, you are so smart."

There was a rare sincerity in the silver-haired girl's voice.

Hermione was startled, then nodded: "Okay - you go first, I'll wait for Daisy."

Sean was about to say something more, but Stephanie secretly tugged on his sleeve.

He was stunned for a moment, but chose to follow.

After they were far away, Stephanie said: "Hermione is not in a good mood."

Sean scratched his head in distress: "Obviously, she is, and she keeps showing off and pretending to be nice."

The silver-haired girl glanced at him: "You lied to Hermione before you came to me, right?"

"Forehead……"

"I understand what you are thinking. Neither you nor Daisy want to arouse Hermione's emotions - however, I think it would be better for Hermione to get more involved. Based on my understanding of her..."

Listening to Stephanie's calm and serious words, Sean fell into deep thought.

Indeed, both he and Daisy seemed to have ignored it, focusing only on preventing Hermione from being in a bad mood, while ignoring her true inner thoughts.

He could probably guess the reason for Hermione's bad mood, it was probably a feeling of rejection.

Although both Sean and Hermione knew that this was not a rejection, people's minds were sensitive and their inner feelings could not be determined rationally.

From this point of view, indeed, Stephanie's approach is more correct.

He turned to Stephanie and said, "That's true. Thank you for reminding me."

"No, it should be." Stephanie shook her head calmly.

"Many things start with misunderstandings, and both parties ignore the other's true inner needs..." She said softly, with a reassuring feeling in her voice.

"A good relationship requires management, right?" She suddenly stopped and tilted her head towards Sean, with a faint smile on her delicate face.

Sean was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

"That's right, Miss Ollivander."

"Thank you for your recognition, Mr. Wallop."

…

"Mr. Wallop, you must be extremely proud to be selected as one of the warriors of Hogwarts, right?" Snape said to Sean with a smile on his face in the Potions class.

"No sir," Sean shouted.

"Then can you tell me, what is this pot of stuff you cooked?"

"Sir, this is a powerful fire retardant potion that is still being brewed."

"Powerful fireproof potion -" Snape sneered, "If you apply a dozen pots on your body, you may be able to achieve the physical effect of the potion."

"But I'm not done yet..." Sean couldn't help but quibble, although his potion was indeed not that good.

Snape's face darkened: "There's still one hour left, I don't think you can..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a junior student outside the door.

"Professor Snape...well, let me ask Mr. Wallop to go upstairs, because of his status as a warrior..." the child said timidly.

Snape's eyes dropped from his hooked nose, and it was obvious that he wanted to say something more.

However, in the end, he still looked at Sean with disgust: "Take those things of yours and disappear before my eyes, now."

"Okay, Professor!"

Sean quickly slipped out, and the classroom echoed with Snape's scolding Harry.

"Help, man," Sean said with a smile.

The junior student was also taught by Sean. He jogged excitedly: "Sir, I saw the people from the Daily Prophet. They must be interviewing you."

"Well, it sounds troublesome - but much better than Professor Snape."

When Sean arrived at the location, he opened the door and walked in. Others had already arrived. Daisy was standing nervously in the corner. Her eyes lit up when she saw Sean.

"You're not late, are you?" Sean greeted with a smile.

"No, no -" Ludo Bagman jumped up, "Come in, come in, we have a small procedure, including interviews and wand testing..."

"Detection wand?" Sean asked.

"We must check whether your wands are fully functional and in good condition, because in future competitions, wands will be your most important equipment." Bagman said, "The experts are upstairs, with Dumbledore. Then a few pictures. This is Rita Skeeter," he said, pointing to the witch in the magenta robe. "She's writing an article about the Tournament for the Daily Prophet. Small article..."

Rita Skeeter was asking Reinhard Knott something in a uniquely annoying way, and the latter looked like he was about to explode.

Her hair was styled into delicate, stiff, weird curls, which looked particularly awkward when paired with her big-jawed face. She wore a pair of bejeweled glasses and clutched an alligator handbag with her fat fingers. Her nails were two inches long and painted bright red.

Sean smiled slightly, isn't this an "old acquaintance" whom he hasn't seen for a long time...

Rita Skeeter heard the sound, and she turned her head to look at the newly arrived warrior. The floating quill turned around with its owner, shaking like a big moth.

After seeing Sean's thick face, Rita's originally annoying and arrogant expression suddenly disappeared and became extremely stiff.

"Hello, ma'am." Sean greeted with a smile.

"Uh, oh, oh, hello, hello." Beetle smiled very stiffly, as if someone had pinched him and stuffed him into a bottle.
