DNF Meets Harry Potter

"You won, tell me your conditions!" Fu Rong walked back very bachelor, the golden egg was tormenting her almost crazy these days.

And she had already found out what Carl had done at Hogwarts these years, knowing that he was a scammer and never did anything that was not beneficial.

"Miss Delacour is really joking. I don't have any conditions... I just think cheating is really bad. The Triwizard Tournament is a very sacred game, and every warrior should take it seriously..."

Karl cut her off, and Fu Rong wanted to give him two punches with her cheap and obedient appearance, since she was an old boxer.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Fu Rong clenched her fists, feeling that she was about to lose her composure.

"It's okay, it's okay to be so anxious, you kind of leek...cough cough..." Carl curled his lips, moved closer and said in a low voice: "Do you know why I didn't cooperate with you just now?

Because, the moment I got the golden egg I knew how to unlock it..."

"What, how is this possible?!" Fu Rong's face changed instantly. When she opened the golden egg for the first time, she was almost not deafened by the sound. How did he know it so quickly.

"In my hands, nothing is impossible..." Carl straightened his expression and said with a smile: "So, Miss Delacour, do you want to know the content of the second match in advance?"

"So... what's the price?" Fleur looked closely at Carl, as if trying to see something in his eyes, "How can I be sure what you said is true?"

"I'll tell you the method, and you can verify it yourself, can't you?" Carl tilted his head, looking a little dissatisfied, "Really, anyway, the final result is determined, and I can't coax you...

As for the price...hehe..."

If one ignores Furong's resentful expression of wanting to eat him when she left, their negotiation is still perfect.

"Would you like to find a wave of Krum?" Carl was lost in thought while holding the heavy bag in his hand.

He thought about it for a while and felt that something was wrong. That old Karkaroff guy was now in conflict with Hogwarts. If he caught him, it would be embarrassing to Crouch.

"Let you go first..." After making up his mind, Carl and Niyari left the auditorium together.

The Christmas holiday lasted for two full weeks, which was enough time for them to relax for a while.

...

In the Gryffindor common room, Hermione was flipping through a thick magic book while frowning.

The Christmas holiday is coming to an end, and the day when the second game starts is getting closer. But Harry still had no idea about the golden egg, he opened it once and never wanted to open it again.

"Don't look in that book, Hermione!" Ron lay lazily on the chair in a large font, and glanced at the "Encyclopedia of Fantastic Creatures" in front of Hermione.

"If you want me to say that the clues have been given clearly, that kind of sound cannot be made by humans. The second test is either a banshee or an evil spirit. You should narrow the scope a bit!"

As he spoke, Ron pointed to the few books about ghosts and banshees that he had just taken off the shelf just now, and his meaning was already obvious.

"Evil spirits are not something they can deal with, the Ministry of Magic will not take this risk..." Hermione retorted directly without raising her head,

"As for all kinds of banshees, it's not very likely... The harpy's cry is sharp and sharp like the cry of an eagle, and it is very aggressive; the sea banshee siren has a very beautiful voice, and she often lures passing ships with her singing. ; while the voice of Medusa the Gorgon is no different from that of ordinary people,

There is also the banshee of death, the banshee of water, Undine... the voice inside the golden egg does not match these..."

The corners of Ron's mouth twitched. Hermione is indeed a know-it-all lady. These strange knowledge came directly from his mouth, and he was almost dumbfounded.

"Then what do you think Harry and the others will face in the second level?" Ron straightened up, wanting to hear her opinion.

"Some kind of magical creature, there is no doubt about it!" Hermione flipped the pages of the book, her eyes quickly scanned the various illustrated books, "Believe me, it is definitely in this book! All we have to do is find it out! "

"But this book is too thick. When will I really have to look for it like this!" Harry held the golden egg in his arms, looking at the huge magic book and couldn't help but said helplessly.

"Then it depends on luck~"

Hermione sighed, it was really difficult to distinguish some kind of magical creature by just one cry, after all, most of their calls were not pleasant. If she doesn't have any special characteristics, she can't make random guesses. If she guesses wrong, it will be over when the game starts.

"Harry, open the golden egg!" Hermione suddenly stopped what she was doing, and looked up at Harry seriously.

"Oh~ Merlin's beard!" Before Harry could speak, Ron stood up from his chair with a bang, "Haven't you heard enough of that voice?"

"This is the only clue!" Hermione's competitive spirit was also aroused, and she still didn't believe that she couldn't find it!

"Sometimes you're really crazy~..." Ron looked at her with something wrong, he shrugged two steps and left the common room.

Not long after he left, the shrill howl instantly spread to every corner of the room.

"Silence!"

Holding the wand, Hermione chanted a spell through her teeth with difficulty, suppressed the volume to a tolerable range, and then patiently gritted her teeth and played it in a loop over and over again.

"The banshee would never make such a sound, but it looks a bit like..." Hermione closed the golden egg, and gradually recalled the past.

That was what happened in the first grade. At that time, she had just entered school, and when she crossed the Black Lake in a small boat, she faintly heard singing~...

"Wait, I got it! This voice...is the mermaid in the Black Lake!"

The past and the present were connected in series, the fog in his mind was swept away, and Hermione grasped the crux of the problem in an instant.

She laughed confidently, and immediately bent down to flip through the contents of the encyclopedia that recorded thousands of magical creatures, and found her target at a glance.

"Mermaid? Are you sure, Hermione!" Harry's eyes widened. The happiness came too suddenly. Just now they were still having a headache about the competition, but now they will reveal the answer?

"It's definitely a mermaid!" Hermione said decisively, she looked extremely confident, "I just said that I seem to have heard this voice somewhere!

Mermaids can't sing on the ground, that's why the howling sound comes from inside the golden egg. We need to put it in the water to turn it on! "

Just do it, Hermione picked up the golden egg and pulled Harry to the Black Lake.

...

While Harry and Hermione were exhausted and scratching their heads trying to untangle the golden eggs, on the other side, Carl was happily counting Galleons in the dormitory.

Furong was very proud, and after confirming that Carl's information was complete and correct, she directly paid him a thousand galleons, which was already equivalent to the entire prize money of the Triwizard Tournament.

"Sure enough, women and students earn the most money, and Furong has both. The ancients don't deceive me!"

Carl said to himself very emotionally, when he messed up with Snape, Voldemort and Lockhart before, which time he didn't even get his tongue out before he got it right.

It's not as silly as Furong, but it can be done in a few words.

"There are still more than 50,000 Galleons left. If you save some money, you should be able to support it until graduation without accidents..."

Carl put away these shining golden cuties with his backhand, dreaming happily about the future.

After planning where the money will be spent in his mind, Carl left the dormitory very satisfied, took the small cake that he bought from the system and was carefully baked by Celia, and was going to find Naiya Li had a cup of afternoon tea.

When he found Niari, she was sitting in a small booth leisurely making black tea, and Harry and Hermione were sitting opposite her as if they were discussing something.

"Hermione, Harry, are you here too? Do you want to have a cup of afternoon tea together?" Carl raised his eyebrows and said in surprise. Shouldn't they still be investigating the golden egg at this moment?

"Karl, you're finally here. We've been looking for you for a long time! Ahem... If we hadn't happened to meet her and heard that you were coming soon, we would all have wanted to go to Ravenclaw Tower to find you!"

Harry's eyes lit up, he swallowed the black tea that Niyali had poured for him before, and said anxiously.

Maybe it was because I was too excited, and I was choked.

"Don't worry, talk about things slowly." Carl smiled gently, moved his fingers slightly, and the wand he had just placed on the table immediately turned into a tablecloth with various patterns.

He wiped the table again, and a pile of small cakes, donuts and other desserts were neatly placed on it.

"Try it, it tastes pretty good!" Carl picked up a sandwich biscuit made by Celia himself and took a bite, not forgetting to comment.

"Let's put this aside for now! The golden egg has been cracked by us!" Harry, who was filled with joy, had no appetite at all, his face flushed slightly and he was extremely excited.

"Do you remember the voice inside the egg? That's not the cry of a banshee at all, it's a mermaid, a mermaid!"

"Clam? Mermaid, are you sure? How do you know?"

Carl directly asked three consecutive questions. He really didn't expect Harry and the others to crack the secret of the golden egg so quickly.

Originally, he thought about finding an opportunity to tell them, but now it seems that there is no need for that.

"It's all thanks to Hermione!" Harry's mouth was a little dry after talking so much in one breath, and he continued after taking a sip of water from his teacup.

"At first Ron thought the sound was the howling of some kind of banshee, which really misled me and cost me a lot of effort!"

Hermione was a little angry when she thought of this incident. In the past two days, she had read at least a dozen books about magical creatures in order to check the information, and her hands were almost broken.

"Since it's related to the mermaid, it's easy!" Carl smiled and nodded at her, flipped his wrist, and the golden egg that belonged to him floated in mid-air and began to spin.

"Clear water is like a spring!"

Karl chanted a spell casually, and the water in the nearby black lake was pulled over by him, and a huge water ball gradually formed in midair, wrapping the golden egg tightly in it.

He waved his hand again, and the golden egg in the water polo opened by itself. It's just that, this time, it's not the shrill roar like a wronged soul, but the ethereal singing like singing:

Come to us by the sound,

On the shore we cannot sing,

We'll steal what you miss the most,

You'll find out in an hour, and then you'll have to exchange it with us.

After an hour, everything disappeared.

If it is too late, nothing will exist.

"So it is!" Hermione suddenly realized, she put down the cake in her hand, and expressed her understanding, "If I guessed correctly, the second game should let you go down to the bottom of the black lake to find a mermaid what they stole.

And judging from the information given by the golden egg, you only have one hour to find it. Once the time is exceeded, the mermaids will bury the thing at the bottom of the lake, which also indicates failure.

And I think the scoring criteria this time has a lot to do with the time spent. During the competition, you must find that thing quickly! "

"I think so too!" Carl nodded in agreement, Hermione took almost all the factors into consideration, and the specific process of the game was almost the same.

It’s just that that thing is actually just a person, after all, it’s the ‘thing I miss the most’...

"The thing I miss the most..." Harry grasped this key word very keenly, and he lowered his head slightly to take off the necklace he was wearing around his neck.

The necklace was made of red and blue, reflecting the light that made Karl intoxicated in the sunlight. The original huge gem was artificially hollowed out into a heart shape. The purpose of this was just to store a small photo.

This is the Christmas gift Lily gave him this year, and she told him to wear it all the time in the letter

Karl glanced at it, feeling that it looked familiar, and curiously threw an identification spell over it. When the system presented the panel of this thing in front of his eyes, he almost stared out his eyes.
