Just a Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor
Chapter 270 The 4th Warrior
There was no applause. After Dumbledore read Harry's name, a sound like bees quarreling appeared in the auditorium.
Harry sat blankly in his seat, staring blankly at the eyes of those who kept leaving his seat and looking in his direction.
"You know," he muttered to Ron and Hermione, "I didn't! I didn't sign up at all."
Hermione and Ron also looked confused, and they didn't know why this happened.
The noise in the auditorium was very loud and chaotic, and it was difficult to hear what the students sitting here were saying.
Sherlock, who was sitting on the high platform, looked thoughtfully in the direction of Harry. The scene where Dumbledore read Harry's name just now reminded him of something.
In his vague memory, Harry did participate in the original Triwizard Tournament, and won the Triwizard Cup in the end.
So, why does his name appear in the Goblet of Fire?
Just when this question arose in Sherlock's mind, Professor McGonagall stood up from her seat with an eager look on her face and hurriedly walked to Dumbledore's side.
Sherlock could vaguely hear her saying to Dumbledore: "...let Harry go to the back first."
Dumbledore nodded, and then silenced the auditorium again.
"Harry, please come up and go behind the door."
Everyone in the entire auditorium was looking at Harry. At this time, he didn't feel any sense of honor. He just felt like a monkey being watched. He wanted to dig a crack in the ground directly. Go in.
When he walked to the high platform, he looked at Dumbledore. There was no smile on Dumbledore's face, and his expression was even more gloomy.
Almost all the teachers on the long table were looking at him. Harry looked at their gazes at a loss. Among them, only Sherlock blinked at him, which slightly relieved the tension in his heart.
Harry was taken behind the door that only the selected warriors could enter. Then Dumbledore asked Flitwick to help take care of the order of the auditorium, and called McGonagall, Snape and Summer, who had previously been determined to guide the warriors. Locke and Moody walked into the cubicle together.
Karkaroff and Mrs. Maxim also walked in together. Both of their faces were ugly. In the entire auditorium, they were the two who were the most unhappy about this accident.
The remaining two referees, Balmain and Crouch, looked as usual. One expressed surprise at such a turn of events, while the other still had a paralyzed face, looking worried.
They arrived at a booth at the back of the auditorium.
Harry was standing there restlessly, becoming the focus of the eyes of the other three warriors who were eligible to register.
Balmain explained to Fleur, Cedric and the others that Harry had become the fourth champion to be chosen.
Others present had a dispute about this matter, and Karkaroff and Mrs. Maxim naturally expressed strong dissatisfaction.
Hogwarts has one more contestant, even if it's just a fourth-year student, which will increase its chances of winning a lot.
Snape was on the sidelines and questioned the means Harry used to successfully register. Professor McGonagall said angrily that she believed Harry would never violate the rules and ask senior students to register for him.
While they were arguing, Sherlock and Moody were sitting in an inconspicuous corner, talking quietly.
"Look at Harry's behavior." Moody's magic eye was fixed on Harry, and it kept turning. "I have a lot of experience in interrogating prisoners. His current demeanor is definitely not disguised, nor is it fake." That is to say, Harry has no idea that he can be selected as a warrior."
Sherlock touched his slightly prickly chin and said in deep thought.
"The possibility of Harry cheating on the registration can be determined to be 0. If he didn't do it himself, then someone secretly helped him throw the parchment with his name on it into the Goblet of Fire without his knowledge. "
Moody's voice was hoarse and deep.
"The person who did this knows very well that the age limit for the Triwizard Tournament was only added this year. The Goblet of Fire will not only consider students over the age of seventeen, as long as their names are thrown into the cup Anyone selected will become its candidate.”
"But this person cannot guarantee that the Goblet of Fire will definitely select Harry as the Champion of Hogwarts. Even if he is famous, he is only a fourth-year student and has learned very limited magic knowledge. In this castle, There are many senior students who are stronger than him.”
"So this person used a very clever confusion spell to make that stupid wooden goblet think that there would be four schools participating in this competition, and Harry Potter was the only candidate for the fourth school, so This will ensure that he will be chosen!”
"We all know that the process of selecting a warrior in the Goblet of Fire is actually making a magical promise that cannot be broken. As long as you are selected, no matter who you are, you must participate in the subsequent games!"
At this point, Moody came to a conclusion.
"Someone wants Harry to participate in the Triwizard Tournament! The ultimate goal is most likely to kill him in the subsequent competition!"
Sherlock shook his head and had other different opinions.
"I don't think it's that simple. Someone wants Harry to participate in this Triwizard Tournament. It makes no sense. But if this person really wants Harry to die, then his better chance is to win over everyone. When everyone was attracted by the Triwizard Tournament, he attacked Harry again. But now, what he did would only make more people's eyes stay on Harry. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com On the contrary, it makes it even more inconvenient for me to do it.”
Moody suddenly frowned after listening to Sherlock's reasoning.
"Then what is his purpose?"
Sherlock narrowed his eyes.
"We have no choice but to do this, but do you think the person who threw Harry's name into the Goblet of Fire could be in this room?"
Moody's hand hidden in his sleeve suddenly tightened, but then he slowly relaxed it.
Moody said in a calm voice as he looked at the five judges in this room who had ended their disputes and chose to accept reality. They pinched their noses and recognized Harry, the extra fourth warrior, and the judges who asked him to compete.
"Of course Dumbledore has absolutely no possibility of this, and the other four people cannot be ruled out as suspects."
After it was confirmed that two warriors from Hogwarts would participate in the Triwizard Tournament, Karkaroff and Madame Maxime's expressions were even more ugly.
