Study Days at Hogwarts

Fred and George walked out of Professor McGonagall's office with gloomy faces. In fact, they could not understand Professor McGonagall's decision, and they did not want anything to happen to Albert, but they were a little annoyed by Professor McGonagall's rigidity. , Albert is definitely not willing to miss the Triwizard Tournament because of some people's machinations.

"What now?" Fred asked.

"I can only hope that Lee Jordan can ask Angelina to vote for Albert." George didn't have any good ideas.

"I'm afraid not." Professor Moody's voice came from behind the two of them.

The two looked back in confusion at Professor Moody, who had just walked out of Professor McGonagall's office.

"It's useless, there's no point in asking others to help vote, otherwise I would have thrown his name in for him." Professor Moody said on crutches.

"What do you mean?" George asked with a frown.

"Dumbledore mentioned it last night. Whoever puts his name into the Goblet of Fire is actually forming a magical contract with the Goblet of Fire. Asking others to help vote may very well become meaningless, because the vote is The wizard does not match the name of the contract. Only Dumbledore probably knows the specific situation, and only he can easily hide the Goblet of Fire and help Albert become a Hogwarts warrior." Professor Moody's tone sounded a little annoyed. , "But he obviously doesn't intend to do that. Are you sure that Albert is really missing? Have you searched elsewhere."

"I've searched everywhere, but still can't find anyone." George said first.

"This is trouble." Professor Moody muttered and walked away. "I have to think of other ways."

"Do you think Professor Moody is just pretending?" After Professor Moody left, Fred asked his companions with a frown.

"I don't know, but since Albert thinks he is a fake, we'd better be more cautious." George reminded, "Albert's guess is very accurate."

"So, you were just pretending." Fred raised an eyebrow and looked at his brother.

"I just wanted to see how Professor Moody would react." George lowered his voice and said, "Actually, I think this is weird."

"It's weird. Are you talking about Albert's disappearance?" Fred indeed felt that this matter was weird.

"Yeah." George nodded and said, "With Albert's ability and his training some time ago, the probability of being attacked unconsciously and hiding is not high."

"You think he's hiding himself?" Fred asked.

"It's hard to say now. We can only trust Albert." George couldn't think of a good way, "However, we should still let Angelina sign up for Albert, even if we don't know if it will be useful, but Gotta give it a try.”

"It can only be the."

Albert, who was missed by the Weasley twins, was currently sitting on the sofa in the Room of Requirement, drinking tea and eating snacks while teaching Katrina how to learn Occlumency.

"Don't worry, I don't expect you to be able to master Occlumency in one day. That's very unrealistic." Albert said gently, "It also took me a lot of time to fully master it."

"Is Isobel very good at Legilimency? Many times I feel that she can easily see through other people's minds." Katrina asked with a frown while enjoying the pastries on the plate.

"Don't worry, Isobel won't peek into other people's thoughts easily." Albert comforted, "Besides, she actually cares about you."

Katrina didn't answer, but asked, "How long do you plan to stay here?"

"After the Halloween party." Albert took a sip of milk tea and said calmly, "So, we have to dine here tonight."

"Don't you plan to participate in the Triwizard Tournament?" Katrina couldn't understand Albert's thoughts. "Or, do you actually know the results of the warrior selection and secretly signed up?"

Albert smiled and said nothing.

"Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask." Katrina supported her chin with her hands and looked at the falling rain outside the window. She suddenly turned to look at Albert and said, "Let's continue practicing. I hope to master the Occlumency Spell as soon as possible. "

Katrina hated the feeling of being seen through.

"Don't worry, you need to be prepared. That way you can get twice the result with half the effort."

It was raining outside the window, and the two people inside the window were talking. Katrina doesn't hate the feeling now. To a certain extent, the love potion has taken effect, allowing them to spend a long time here that only belongs to the two of them.

Due to the rain outside, the sky got darker faster than before. Durmstrang's delegation and Beauxbatons' delegation arrived at the castle before it completely darkened.

After watching the Goblet of Fire being removed, the three people's faces were not very good. Albert did not show up in the end. This incident undoubtedly alarmed the Gryffindor students. Many people thought that someone did not want Albert to participate in the third round. The Triwizard Tournament, that's why he disappeared during the selection of warriors. As for being afraid of participating in the Triwizard Tournament?

This is obviously impossible. Guys who dare to make sarcastic remarks in a weird tone have to ask the girls if they agree.

Because even Professor Moody recognized Albert's ability and believed that he could win the Triwizard Cup for Hogwarts. How could such a person be afraid of the Triwizard Tournament?

Soon conspiracy theories became popular. Some people said that Slytherin students attacked Albert, because a large part of Slytherin students did not like Albert. Some people said that Durmstrang did it, because once Albert Specially participating in the Triwizard Tournament, their players will never lose the chance to win the championship.

The Halloween dinner began with such discussions.

I don't know if it was related to the Halloween dinner. Today's dishes were more sumptuous than yesterday, but Fred, George and Lee Jordan were not in the mood to eat because Amber still didn't show up.

"Don't worry, Angelina has already registered for Albert." George comforted himself, but he still glanced at the auditorium door from time to time, expecting that the door would suddenly be pushed open and that Albert would appear in front of them. , location, they also chose a location close to the entrance of the auditorium to make room for Albert.

Compared with a few of them, other students in the auditorium were also very anxious. Some of them were even restless, wishing that the dinner would end soon.

After the food on the golden plate disappeared, the voice in the auditorium suddenly became louder. Everyone could not wait to know who would be selected as the warrior.

In the eager eyes of the students, Dumbledore finally stood up.

"Later, after the names of the warriors have been announced, I would like them to go into the next room, where they will receive initial instruction." Dumbledore pointed to the door behind the staff desk.

He waved his wand, causing the candles suspended above everyone's heads to be extinguished. The auditorium suddenly darkened, and the blue-white flame of the Goblet of Fire emitted a dazzling light in front of everyone.

Everyone stared at the Goblet of Fire and waited patiently.

Before everyone could wait too long, the blue-white flame in the Goblet of Fire suddenly turned into a dazzling red. The flames shot up high and sparks flew everywhere.

Everyone in the auditorium held their breath.

A piece of burnt parchment flew out of the flames and was held by a hand.

"The first warrior of Durmstrang," Dumbledore held up the parchment from a distance and used the firelight next to him to see the writing on the parchment clearly, "is Viktor Krum."

In an instant, applause and cheers swept the entire auditorium, and people were cheering for Viktor Krum to become Durmstrang's warrior.

Viktor Krum himself didn't seem too surprised. He stood up from his seat listlessly, walked along the staff table, and entered the next room to rest.

After the applause and conversation gradually subsided, people once again turned their attention to the Goblet of Fire. This time they didn't have to wait too long. The Goblet of Fire once again spit out a second piece of parchment.

"The Champion of Beauxbatons," Dumbledore announced again, "is Fleur Delacour!"

Next, only the Gryffindor warriors were left.

"It's finally over." Professor Moody stared at the Goblet of Fire in front of him, with a slight smile on his lips.

As long as Dumbledore declares the Hogwarts Champion, the troublesome guy will be completely eliminated, and then all he has to do is help Harry win the championship.

"The Champion of Hogwarts," Dumbledore shouted, already grabbing the third piece of parchment, "is Albert Anderson."

Deafening cheers erupted in the auditorium, and a large number of students cheered for Albert to be elected as a warrior.

The moment Dumbledore announced the Hogwarts Warriors, Moody seemed to be dumbfounded. He couldn't believe his ears.

What's going on, how did Albert Anderson become a Hogwarts Champion.

At this moment, Moody even wanted to rush up and grab the parchment from Dumbledore's hand to see if he had pronounced the name wrong.

"Mr. Albert Anderson!" Dumbledore frowned, looked around, and shouted again, "Albert, please come here!"

However, no one responded, as if the warrior named Albert Anderson was not in the auditorium.

In fact, he was not in the auditorium either.

Professor McGonagall glared at Moody fiercely. She suspected that the old Auror next to her had secretly signed up for Albert.

But now is not the time to think about these things. Professor McGonagall stood up from the guest of honor seat, walked to Professor Dumbledore and whispered eagerly in his ear. Dumbledore listened and frowned slightly.

Is he missing?

Dumbledore actually knew about this, and Moody even approached him about it, but now we are not discussing who put his name into the Goblet of Fire, but how to deal with this matter now.

The buzzing chatter became louder and louder, and the auditorium was completely in a state of panic, because the students of Hogwarts had discovered that their warrior was missing.
