Just a Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor
Chapter 274 Rita Skeeter
Sherlock's words were very heartbreaking, and Harry had a resentful look on his face and sat across from the desk.
"Do the other professors know about this?" Harry asked expectantly.
Sherlock shrugged and poured himself and Harry a cup of black tea respectively.
"Of course it's not possible for everyone to believe it, but you can also see from last night's performance that Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall definitely believe in you. Anyone with a little bit of discernment can see that, if you want Blinding the Goblet of Fire is not an easy task. This alchemy tool has been used as a referee for the Triwizard Tournament for centuries. As I just said, if you can really use it in the fourth grade Curse, after you graduate, Dumbledore will also attack you."
As Harry listened to Sherlock's words, he pulled the dessert plate filled with cookies towards him.
Because he did not dare to appear in the auditorium, he had not eaten anything from morning to almost noon. This time when he came to see Sherlock, he was not suspected of eating and drinking.
With his mouth full of cookies, Harry didn't forget to ask.
"Professor, do you have any clues now? Who would throw my name into the Goblet of Fire? Let me participate in this competition?"
Of course, Sherlock didn't gobble it up like Harry, but took a sip of black tea and said calmly.
"Of course there are clues, but it's not appropriate to tell you. In short, you shouldn't have too much psychological pressure. You should still participate in normal competitions. For other things, I and others will take care of it for you."
His words undoubtedly gave Harry a shot of comfort.
Afterwards, he told Sherlock about the Gryffindor students' enthusiasm for him being chosen as a warrior. There was also the fact that even her best friend Ron didn't want to believe what he said, and Hermione was reading some strange books recently.
Sherlock had no opinion on the first two things, but he was very interested in the last one, the books Hermione read.
"What did you say you saw her looking at this morning?"
Harry repeated the titles of the few books he could still remember to Sherlock, and Sherlock murmured with a thoughtful expression on his face.
"It's a good thing that she's thinking in this direction."
After eating and drinking at his place, Harry finally left with satisfaction.
In the next few days, Hogwarts was calm, and the focus of discussion in the castle was of course still on the four newly selected warriors.
Harry, who was not eligible but was finally selected to the list, naturally attracted much attention.
He was rarely supported by other houses, and Hufflepuff students believed that he had stolen the honor of Cedric, the champion of their own house. Slytherin has always been at odds with Gryffindor, and under the leadership of Malfoy, it is natural that they will not look kindly on Harry either.
They even had a magic badge pinned to their chests, with the words "Cedric is the True Warrior" written on the front and "Potter Stinks" on the reverse.
Because of this badge, Harry almost had a conflict with Malfoy and his group in the castle. Fortunately, Moody arrived in time. After learning that Malfoy and the others were the first to taunt him, in front of Malfoy who arrived later, With an ugly look on his face, Nep ruthlessly deducted 20 points from Slytherin.
These days, Sherlock wants to go out with Silk for a walk. But she was never found in the school.
Professor McGonagall said that the day after the Halloween dinner, she took three days off to go out for something else. During these days, Trelawney took over her arithmetic and divination classes.
Sherlock was puzzled as to what she was doing out there, but he didn't write to ask more.
Silk has his own privacy, and there is no need for him to be so lenient on certain matters. In the past few days, Furong had been looking for him more frequently, chatting about a lot of things.
On the day Silk came back, Harry and the others also started preparations for the first competition event and were called together for a wand test.
At the same time, before testing the wand, Harry was invited alone for an interview by a female reporter from the Daily Prophet named Rita Skeeter.
Harry had already sensed something was wrong with being treated so specially. Later, when he saw that what he said during the interview was completely opposite to what Skeeter's shorthand quill recorded on the parchment, His mood immediately worsened.
After tossing Harry a lot, this not-so-simple female reporter had no intention of ending her trip to Hogwarts. Instead, she found Dumbledore again.
"Oh, I wonder if the famous Professor Forrest is in the castle now? I have always wanted to do an exclusive interview with him, but I have never had the chance. This time is just right."
Dumbledore said with a smile.
"You can go to the innermost office on the third floor of the castle and take a look. I believe that if Sherlock is here, he would be happy to accept your interview."
After getting Sherlock's specific location, Skeeter left with satisfaction. She took her interview equipment and knocked on the door of Sherlock's office.
At this time, Sherlock happened to get the news that Silk had returned from school. He picked up his coat and put it on and was about to go out. Then he waited for this Daily Prophet reporter with a smile on his face and wearing a green robe.
"Professor Forrest is planning to go out?"
Sherlock looked up and down at the witch whose smile felt fake, and nodded slightly.
"Who are you?"
The driver stretched out his hand and shook it with Sherlock.
"I am Rita Skeeter, a special reporter from the Daily Prophet. Now because of the Triwizard Tournament, I have come to Hogwarts to conduct some exclusive interviews. I wonder if you have time. I want to know something from you. matter."
Sherlock originally didn't want to get involved with her, and he didn't care about the interview at all, but after hearing her name, he became somewhat interested.
Rita Skeeter.
He is also a very famous reporter in the Daily Prophet, the most authoritative newspaper in the British wizarding world.
She would always use some means that others didn't know about to dig out the things behind famous people. Many people hated her. They knew clearly that the way she obtained the news was not clean, but they couldn't find any evidence to accuse her. Report to the Wizengamot.
Similarly, it is also because she can always dig out the dark secrets and tidbits behind these popular figures, which makes her well known to most wizards in the magical world. All the news she reports will inevitably appear on the front page of the Daily Prophet Version.
