A day at Hogwarts

Chapter 424 Someone wants to kidnap him

Although Harry and others had been setting up stalls next to the arena for a long time, this was the first time they walked into the tent area.

"Did Charles take you camping that summer?" Hermione said to Harry in surprise. "Charles originally invited me to go, but I was... changing my teeth at that time."

"What a shame," said Harry.

"Compared to that campground, this is so much fun."

The tents of wizards from all over the world are all kinds of weird. Some tents have a chimney sticking out, and some look like a small castle. Next to them, several African wizards are opening a series of thatched houses like an umbrella. In front of There is also a pyramid a few steps away.

There was another tent like a palace, with gorgeous colorful silks outside. Draco Malfoy was talking to a Slytherin girl in front of the tent.

Ron frowned and said, "Why is he still so rich?"

After the Malfoys and Majia Village disappeared, many people thought that the Malfoy family was about to decline.

But that doesn't seem to be the case now. Malfoy stood in front of the tent, greeting the Ministry of Magic staff and Hogwarts students passing by, and raised his eyebrows at Ron provocatively, as if to announce that the Malfoy family was still the same. Malfoy family.

Harry ignored Malfoy and said to Ron, "He may have dug up the treasure left by his ancestors."

"In the past, Charles once kept a large sum of money in his pocket wallet and buried it in the garden, saying that he could dig it out and use it if there was an accident in the future."

After he finished speaking, he noticed that the girl who had just been talking to Malfoy was walking over, and was almost hit by two little girls riding toy broomsticks on the way.

"Good morning, Potter, Granger, and Weasley." Daphne Greengrass greeted the three of them warmly, which was something she had never done before.

Before that, Daphne had spoken to Harry twice at the beginning of school, and had said "give in" to Hermione several times in the library.

As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling person, Harry and the others responded politely.

Daphne saw the three of them holding kettles and pots and asked, "Are you going to fetch water?"

Harry replied: "Yeah, let's go to the tap."

Daphne said: "I happened to pass by my tent, let's go together."

The Harry trio sensed something was wrong, but couldn't put their finger on what was wrong.

Along the way, Daphne chatted a bit about when Harry and the others came, where the tent was, and so on. She casually asked, "Is Smith with you?"

Harry replied: "He spent the whole summer abroad and only came back once. He probably didn't come to watch the game."

Daphne said a little disappointedly: "So that's it."

At this time, they walked to the Greengrass family's big tent. Daphne asked Harry and the three of them to wait, then went into the tent and brought out three boxes of cream cakes for them.

The Harry trio looked at each other in confusion as they looked at the cakes in their hands.

Harry asked: "Is there any conspiracy behind this?"

Hermione thought for a moment and said, "There's no need for her to harm us."

The two discussed it for a while but came to no conclusion.

Ron suddenly said: "Could her target be Charles?"

Harry and Hermione looked at each other, their hearts suddenly enlightened.

"Harry! Ron! Hermione!"

Not far in front of them, Seamus was waving excitedly, holding the same cake box in his other hand.

Seamus' mother, Lady Finnigan, was there, as well as Neville and Dean Thomas.

Harry knew Mrs. Finnigan and had worked in her shop after running away from home last year, so he went over to say hello to them.

Seamus' family got three tickets, but his father couldn't come because he had work, so he invited Dean.

Neville had his own ticket. His parents were Aurors and were working overtime. Grandma didn't like places that were too busy, so he came to Seamus to play with her.

After everyone chatted for a while, Seamus saw Harry and the others holding cakes and asked, "Have you met Daphne Greengrass too?"

Harry nodded.

"She looks a little odd," Hermione said.

Ron asked Seamus: "Did she ask you about Charles?"

Seamus immediately nodded and said, "Yes, is she going to be detrimental to Charles?"

Dean asked nervously: "You mean she wants to kidnap Charles?"

Neville also became nervous: "Do you want to report it to the Auror office?"

In their eyes, Charles is now a wealthy man who owns a restaurant and a company, and is valuable for kidnapping.

At this time Ron said: "Is it possible that Greengrass just fell in love with Charles?"

Dean was startled and said, "It's not impossible."

Neville nodded.

However, Seamus shook his head and said: "Probably not. She has never spoken to Charles before, and Charles has never mentioned her to me at all."

This time it was Ron's turn not to stick to his point of view. After all, Seamus and Charles were in the same dormitory, and if anything happened, he would definitely know first.

Charles and Daphne had almost no interaction before. No one would believe Daphne when she suddenly said that she was interested in Charles.

Harry said seriously: "Just now I saw a man who looked very much like Charles. I will go to the tent of Dancing Grass Restaurant to find him later and remind him to be careful."

Seamus said: "I went there just now and Charles wasn't there."

Hermione said, "Then let's look around the camp."

Several people quickly assigned tasks and later went to different camps to find Charles.

They all felt that although Charles didn't usually watch Quidditch games, he would definitely not miss such a lively place.

Harry's trio continued to fetch water, ignoring the interesting tents of the wizards along the way, and whispered about Daphne's conspiracy.

They met other classmates they knew on the way.

"Smith?" Qiu Zhang thought for a moment, "I didn't see him."

Harry whispered to her, "If you see him, tell him to be careful, someone may harm him."

Qiu Zhang realized the seriousness of the situation and agreed seriously.

Not long after, Qiu Zhang met other students from Ravenclaw and asked them to pay attention to whether they saw Smith, and if they did, remind him to be safe.

"Someone wants to kidnap Smith?" Cedric looked at Hannah Abbott in surprise, "Who told you that?"

Hannah said, "Marietta Edgemore from Ravenclaw and Katie Bell from Gryffindor, everyone is looking for Smith."

Cedric's father Amos Diggory heard their conversation and said to his son after Hannah left, "Maybe someone is jealous of the Dancing Grass Restaurant making a lot of money. You look for Smith in the camp and I will report to the Minister."

Amos and Charles are both from the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures. Now that Charles is in danger, he naturally wants to help.
