New Professor at Hogwarts

Xia Ran and his group of teachers, unlike the students in the stands around them, understood the content of the second competition event.

Last night, the school's professors took away three of the warriors' cherished people and placed them in the depths of the lake on the edge of the grounds outside Hogwarts Castle. They also knew the content of the competition, but they had no chance to tell the warriors. - Guarded by the fishmen in the lake, today the warriors are told the truth and asked to bring back the person who was robbed within an hour, otherwise they will never see that person again.

Of course this is a threat. Those three people: Hermione Granger, Qiu Zhang, and Gabri Delacour. The three of them are Viktor Krum, Cedric Diggory, Fleur Delacour's beloved one.

And neither Dumbledore, nor Ms. Maxim, nor Ludo Bagman, nor Jerome Barton would allow students to lose their lives, but Karkaroff didn't care at all, even if Gram In his opinion, Lum was only valued because of his fame.

Because it was a prepared competition event, and the people outside could not see the situation in the depths of the lake. Xia Ran looked at it for a while. He could see almost nothing except the calm lake water, so he seemed a little interested. Missing.

"If I had known earlier, I would have placed some cameras at the bottom of the lake so that everyone could see it." Xia Ran said boredly.

"Camera?" Professor Flitwick said enthusiastically, "Is it a Muggle thing? I heard people in my village mention it, but it's just a small town and there are no cameras installed yet."

This is the end of the 20th century. Big cities may be fine, but small towns and villages do not have so many high-tech products. However, wizards' residences are mostly located in remote villages. After all, the "International Wizarding Secrecy Act" jointly signed by the ministries of magic of many countries prohibits Wizards openly use magic in front of Muggles.

The original copy of the "International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy" has always been something Xia Ran longed to touch once, and it definitely contains a lot of Force points!

Xia Ran narrowed her eyes slightly and decided to rest her mind and take a nap. It would take about an hour to see the results anyway.

Sure enough, almost an hour later, bursts of cheers erupted from the stands.

"Someone came out?!" Hagrid, who was also drowsy at the side, woke up, looked up, and pushed several professors on both sides, "It's Cedric, and sure enough, he was the first to succeed! "

Xia Ran and the others came to their senses. Looking down from the bleachers, they saw Cedric and Qiu Zhang being pulled ashore by the school doctor, Mrs. Pomfrey, and the two deans, Professor McGonagall and Professor Sprout. , Cedric was panting and seemed exhausted.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the first warrior has returned successfully, he is Cedric Diggory!" Bagman shouted.

Students in several houses of Hogwarts burst into cheers and applause.

Even Harry couldn't help but cheer because Qiu Zhang was successfully rescued.

"That's great, Cedric." Hagrid clapped his hands heavily.

Xia Ran suddenly narrowed his eyes and was keenly aware of something strange deep in the lake.

After a while, the others' excitement subsided and they slowly discovered something was wrong.

I saw the lake surface churning, and a very huge whirlpool appeared, followed by a figure with long silver hair thrown out. It was Fleur Delacour. She was the only one. She...failed? !

The cheers stopped abruptly.

"No! Gabri... Gabri..." Fleur Delacour broke away from Ms. Maxim's arms and ran to the lake with the intention of diving into the lake again and bringing back her biological sister, but Max Ms. Mu chased after her and held her tightly.

The crowd looked at each other, all a little scared. Could it be that... someone was going to die like this? !

Fleur wailed sadly.

"Poor little girl," Professor Trelawney said pityingly.

Xia Ran took a look and said, "Krum is out."

Sure enough, Krum appeared on the lake with Hermione. The shark head struggled to transform back into a human form, and Hermione slowly woke up.

The crowd didn't cheer much as Fleur's cries were still ringing in their ears.

But Harry and Ron couldn't help but waved their fists. After all, Hermione was rescued.

Hermione saw the crying Fleur and seemed to want to comfort her, but Ludo Bagman shook his head and told her not to tell her the truth until the game was over.

She had to be pulled ashore by Madam Pomfrey and underwent a comprehensive examination by the school doctor.

After knowing that an hour had completely passed, Fleur was heartbroken, and then Bagman announced: "The warrior Cedric of Hogwarts, and the warrior Krum of Durmstrang, they successfully completed this time." Mission, congratulations to them, but unfortunately, Miss Delacour failed..."

"No, Gabrielle..." Fleur covered her face and cried.

People also showed signs of sympathy.

"But..." Bagman changed the subject, "Although Miss Delacour has failed, Miss Gabrielle Delacour is innocent. Let us ask our mermaid friends to send Gabrielle Delacour back. Miss LaCour.”

Fleur was stunned, then overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Bagman, is it true? I mean...Gabriel...she..."

"Yes." Bagman said with a smile, "Will we care whether the students live or die? Miss Delacour, you must believe in the Ministry of Magic, Hogwarts, Durmstrang and Beauxbatons."

"Fleur, don't cry, Gabrielle will be back soon." Ms. Maxim comforted her.

But Furong cried with joy.

The audience in the stands also cheered loudly, happy for the turn of events and Furong's luck!

A group of mermaids emerged from the water, bringing with them a little girl with flowing silver hair, who was none other than Fleur's biological sister, Gabrielle Delacour.

As soon as the little girl opened her eyes, she saw her sister and couldn't help but laugh.

Fleur cried even more sadly, and kept saying: "I'm sorry, Gabrielle, it's all my sister's fault... My sister is so bad..."

She hugged Gabrielle tightly, and finally Madam Pomfrey had to use Madam Maxime's power to take Gabrielle out of Fleur's arms, give her a full body check, and feed her a refreshing drink Potion.

Dumbledore walked to the lake and started a conversation with a mermaid, making a mermaid's high-pitched voice. Apparently, Dumbledore was able to tell the mermaid's prophecy.

Finally, he turned to the other referees and said, "Let's have a meeting first and then make a score."

So the five referees gathered together and discussed something in low voices.

"I wonder how they will score?" Professor Graplan asked expectantly.

Xia Ran shook her head and said regretfully: "Fu Rong is the last one in the second round."

"Alas." Hagrid sighed and said, "Is she sad?" His eyes focused on Ms. Maxim.

All the professors were already used to it.
