I Was Spotted By Grindelwald and Went To Hogwarts

Chapter 491 The second project begins!

,!

"Hermione, this is the prefects' bathroom..."

A luxurious chandelier with candles casts a warm, soft light into the room, and everything is made of snow-white marble, including the bathtub in the middle that sinks into the ground like a rectangular swimming pool. There are about a hundred golden faucets beside the bath, and the handle of each faucet is inlaid with a gem of a different color. There is also a diving board. Snow-white linen curtains hung on the windows; a pile of fluffy white towels were placed in a corner, and there was only one picture hanging on the wall, set in a gilded frame. The painting shows a blond mermaid, sleeping soundly on the rock, her long hair blowing on her face, trembling slightly with every breath she takes.

Daisy was sitting on her knees by the bathtub. She looked curiously and said to Hermione.

Hermione, who was wrapped in a bath towel, turned on several faucets nearby. Daisy was surprised to find that what was sprayed out were various bubble bath liquids mixed with hot water, but they were different from the bubbles she had come into contact with before. The baths were completely different—one faucet sprayed pink and blue bubbles as big as footballs; the other sprayed crystal clear, dense, thick foam—which Daisy thought would be a great addition if she cared to try it. It will definitely hold her on the water, unable to sink; the third faucet sprays out a fragrant purple mist that fills the surface of the water.

"It's so beautiful." She exclaimed sincerely.

Hermione stretched out her white calves and dangled on the edge of the half-filled bathtub: "This is probably the most valuable thing about being a prefect."

Daisy blinked: "You didn't teach me a lesson when you brought me to the prefects' bathroom - you have changed, Hermione!"

Hermione rolled her eyes angrily: "Does it matter if I bring you here or not? Even if I point at your nose and say that as the best friend of two prefects, you shouldn't violate school rules frequently, you won't Will you ask Harry to borrow the Invisibility Cloak and sneak out? Besides, this is about the second project of the Four Wizard Tournament——"

"Sure enough, you are the best to me -" Daisy hugged Hermione's arm with a smile, "But how did Sean find out? I haven't seen him do any research..."

Hermione frowned: "I don't know about him. He is so mysterious. Even though we can tell him directly, he still has to let you guys try it yourself..."

"Damn sense of ritual." Daisy said firmly.

While the two were talking, the sound of footsteps came.

Stephanie walked in, wrapped in a bath towel and holding a golden egg. Her long silver-white hair was tied up high, and the bun sticking out was almost as big as her head.

Hermione glanced at Stephanie and didn't show much enthusiasm. Instead, Daisy greeted her particularly happily.

Little Baihua actually didn't know what was going on. On the day of the Yule Ball, she originally thought that Hermione and Stephanie suddenly became comrades on the same front - but when the Yule Ball ended, the two returned to their usual selves. A lukewarm attitude.

Sean and Daisy have always wanted to know what kind of conversation the two had, but they didn't have the guts to ask, whether it was Hermione or Stephanie.

Moreover, as Sean's partner at the Yule Ball, Daisy always feels guilty.

After a brief greeting, the bathtub was filled with hot water and bubbles. The steam was swirling, and three bath towels were thrown beside the bathtub.

"Huh--" Daisy soaked in the hot water and let out a sigh of relief.

Looking at the rise and fall of the little white flowers, Hermione and Stephanie glanced at them involuntarily, then at their own chests.

The two of them invariably moved a little further away from Xiao Baihua.

The two of them even had this idea pop up in their minds - Sean...does he like big ones?

Daisy looked both ways, a little confused as to why the two people were so far away from her...

The combination of the three is actually quite interesting - Stephanie is the oldest of the three girls, but except for the men's clothing she wore at the Christmas ball that day, she is only 1.5 meters tall at other times, which is her normal height - Stephanie never told Sean that after the two met, she "jumped" three centimeters.

Hermione is the second tallest person and is of normal height. She is currently 1.63 meters tall. She estimates that she can grow another two to three centimeters - maybe?

But Daisy, who is the youngest and has suffered a lot since childhood, is actually the tallest among the three girls - she compared with Hermione. At this time last year, she was two centimeters shorter than Hermione, but now she is one centimeter taller. .

There's another reason that keeps Stephanie and Hermione away from the little white flowers in the bath - size.

Stephanie is not a steel plate, but not much different; Hermione is very satisfied with her height, but is only dissatisfied with her size - especially when compared with Daisy.

Perhaps it has something to do with her appetite, but the size of Xiao Baihua's villa completely suppressed the two of them. To be precise, most of her peers would also be suppressed by her.

However, what makes Hermione envious is that the little white flower eats a lot, but it is fat where it should be and thin where it should be.

The water mist filled the bathtub, and suddenly the only sound left in the bath was the sound of water being discharged from the faucet.

Taking a bath is not scary, no matter who is younger, it will be embarrassing - it is suitable for both men and women.

Of course, if Sean were here, he would definitely say: I don't value this, and it doesn't matter whether it's big or small, each has its own benefits and various troubles.

The confused little white flower didn't understand why Stephanie and Hermione were suddenly silent. She blinked in confusion and wiped the sweat from her head.

Stephanie lowered her body into the pool, then held the golden egg over and said softly: "Sean said, just soak it in the water?"

As soon as he returned to the topic, the other two girls also gathered around.

Hermione stared at the golden egg suspiciously: "Terry Butt opened it again in the lounge last time - everyone in the portrait protested."

Daisy trusted Sean wholeheartedly: "Since Sean said so, he must have tried it."

The three girls looked at each other, and then Stephanie sank the golden egg into the water and pressed it.

This time there was no ear-piercing howl. A misty golden light emitted from the golden eggs in the water, and a gurgling song floated out, but it was unclear what the lyrics were.

"Are you going to listen underwater?" Hermione asked.

The three of them sank their heads into the water together.

The singing flowed along the water and reached their ears in a clever way.

Look for us where our voices sound,

We cannot sing on the ground.

As you search, consider:

We took away your most precious treasure.

You only have an hour,

To find and regain what we took,

After an hour all hope is gone,

It is completely gone and will never be seen again.

The three girls floated up, each shaking their heads to shake their long hair away from their eyes.

Hermione frowned and said, "This is the second challenge..."

Stephanie looked calm: "You can't sing on the ground, and this kind of singing - in the second level, what we have to face is... the mermaid..."

A blonde mermaid shows off her fins in a gilded picture frame on the wall.

Daisy said "Oh" and said rather unhappily: "But I have seen pictures of mermaids, and they are not as beautiful as the pictures."

"Now is not the time to worry about the appearance of the second challenge," Hermione frowned and said, "The only place with mermaids within Hogwarts is the Black Lake, which means you will need to go down to the Black Lake... Prepare ways to move freely underwater..."

"The method is not a problem -" Stephanie said, "I am more concerned about the content of the competition. According to the literal meaning of the song, the contestants' beloved things will be taken away, and if they cannot be retrieved within an hour, they will disappear - —Speed, method, and completion, these should be the criteria for scoring.”

Xiao Baihua followed the example of the two of them and started thinking: "My beloved thing...the professors won't take away all the desserts in my room, right?!"

Hermione was speechless for a while. She patted her forehead and said angrily: "How can it be so simple! And if the professor takes away your dessert, I will definitely support him with both hands."

"Hermione-" Daisy pouted aggrievedly.

Stephanie lay half-body on the edge of the bath, exposing her snow-white back. She murmured to herself: "And there are three people in each team. It is impossible to have the same beloved things. Of course, this may be just a way of describing it, but We failed to understand the true meaning..."

"It's possible," Hermione nodded. "Perhaps the biggest role of this clue is to tell the contestants that the second level will be conducted underwater - the combat effectiveness of wizards will drop sharply after entering the water. If you don't find the clue and are not prepared, take part in the competition." Those who do so will face a huge disadvantage.”

"I think the key may still be the cooperation of the contestants."

"Yes, this Triwizard Tournament hundreds of years ago is different. As the number of people increases, cooperation should also become a difficult test..."

"Also, pay attention to the time. This time may mean something..."

Listening to the discussion between the two highly intelligent players, Xiao Baihua blinked.

Sure enough, it’s best to let others think...

"Underwater activities are not a problem." Sean said in the Room of Requirement.

They are discussing how to deal with the second challenge.

"Underwater breathing potions should be banned, but we can use other methods, such as head soaking spells, transformation spells, or gill grass. Of course, if you stay with me all the time, I can use other methods to make you You are free to move around underwater.”

Hermione had been thinking. After hearing what Sean said, she added: "Sean's underwater combat effectiveness should be much ahead of others. Is that something that can be considered..."

Sean turned around in surprise, then snapped his fingers: "You're a bad student, but you and I thought we'd work together - I can hinder the warriors from other schools."

Hermione rolled her eyes at him: "Don't forget, there are other creatures in the Black Lake."

"I have a basilisk and a Selma monster..."

"...They can't be released!"

Stephanie, who had been silent, said: "But Sean can indeed deal with other people. Daisy and I will complete the competition, but just in case, Daisy and I have to prepare countermeasures for underwater activities alone."

The few people continued to discuss the details for a while, and Sean decided to give everyone a piece of gillweed - there was no need to steal it from Snape's storage room, he had already prepared a lot of it from the black market. , of course, as long as Daisy asks, Snape will definitely give it.

Snape was happy for several days after receiving Daisy's gift at Christmas - of course, you couldn't tell it just by looking at Snape's expression, but you could tell by looking at the pile of potions he gave Daisy. Already...

After carefully making all the preparations, Sean let out a sigh of relief: "It's not a big problem. When the time comes, we will choose one of the prepared plans based on the specific challenge project."

The others nodded.

However, the only thing that puzzles Sean is what the beloved thing is, and whether the three of them have to rescue Hermione, just like in the original book.

But isn’t that a little too simplistic?

However, Sean's doubts were quickly answered.

A few days later, under the gaze of countless spectators, the warriors stood by the Black Lake.

Sean was accompanied by Reinhard Nott, Fleur, Hugo and Cedric.

Daisy and Stephanie were not at the lake.

At this time, Ludo Bagman was loudly announcing the rules.

"As you can see, your teammates have arrived at the other two sides of the Black Lake. You will all act alone. Do you see what you have in your hands?"

Sean raised his hand. He was holding a lens.

"The clues of the competition have been placed in the golden eggs. As for the specific projects..." Mr. Bagman put his wand against his throat and sounded like a bell, "We need our warriors to think positively!"

"Your teammates are each holding the same thing, so you don't need to remind me what you should do first?!"

Sean was standing by the lake. He didn't even change into swimming trunks. He was wearing winter sportswear, which was a bit out of place with the warriors in swimsuits around him.

"It's a bit difficult for the three of them to separate... But Daisy and Stephanie don't have to worry..." Sean muttered to himself while stretching his muscles.

Obviously, the contestants must first rendezvous with their teammates, and in an environment like the Black Lake, it is not an easy task to rendezvous smoothly. If you rashly send a signal with a wand, you will be killed by many people in the Black Lake. If you discover too many magical animals, you will be in trouble.

The key after that should lie in the items in the hands of the three of them. After the three-in-one, there should be a clue to the "beloved thing".

But Sean never figured out what his beloved thing was. His friends were waving happily in the stands at the moment. Hermione, wearing a thick cotton coat, was shouting something to Sean.

It seemed that she wanted to inform Sean about the location of Stephanie and Daisy - Snape in the professor's stand next to her had no intention of stopping her. In the past, Big Bat would definitely give a direct warning to the prefect who blatantly violated the rules. Twenty points deducted.

Unfortunately, the referees had already thought about it, and the sound from the audience could not be heard by the lake.

Mr. Bagman patted Sean on the shoulder, and then his voice was like thunder, passing over the dark black lake and reaching the stands.

"Listen, everyone, our warriors are already in place. As soon as I blow the whistle, the second project begins. They have a full hour to take back what was taken from them. I count to three. One...two ……three!"

"Game start!"
