The Bard at Hogwarts

In the original story, the badgers did not make trouble because Cedric was among the warriors.

But now the situation is reversed. Slytherin chose to sit on the sidelines because of Ino, and the burden of conquering Harry naturally fell on Hufflepuff.

Even though a month and a half had passed, the badgers were still upset.

However, Hufflepuff is Hufflepuff after all.

Although the badgers were very dissatisfied, they did not do anything out of the ordinary, let alone direct conflict and personal attacks.

But there is one thing, as the college with the largest number of people in the castle, even if everyone only said one sentence, the number of people gathered together is enough to make people's scalp numb.

At the moment, Harry felt this way.

He had enough of the daily sarcasm, which was not enough in the corridor in the past, and now he couldn't even have a meal in peace.

But just when Harry was about to explode, another voice sounded in his ears.

"If you are not satisfied with the decision of the Goblet of Fire, go to Professor Dumbledore! Go to the two directors of the Ministry of Magic! Insinuating here will not show your courage!"

Ginny stood up! Although she was only a third-year wizard, she did not retreat at all. She stood in front of Harry alone, facing several Hufflepuff students next to her.

The figure looked a little weak, but Ginny was not inferior to the boys in momentum. Especially at this moment, her expression and tone were like a lioness protecting her cubs.

After seeing Ginny come forward, Hermione did not hesitate and chose to stand up.

She didn't have many friends in the castle, or even pitifully few, but among the few friends, Ginny must be one.

A chain reaction seemed to have occurred. After Ginny and Hermione made their positions clear, Ron, Neville, Seamus, George, Fred... More and more Gryffindors began to express their positions with actions.

As the person involved, Harry felt an unprecedented warmth in his heart. The coldness and ridicule over the past month and a half seemed to become so insignificant.

Even the rage that had just arisen disappeared in an instant.

Because he always had friends by his side.

Looking at the familiar figures standing in front of him, Harry's eyes were a little wet.

At this moment, he had a magical feeling, as if as long as there were friends, there would be no difficulties that could not be overcome.

A power called self-confidence also quietly rose at this moment.

As if she felt something, Ginny in the front subconsciously looked back.

When their eyes met, in this tense atmosphere, different feelings also arose.

…

At the same time.

On the other side of the hall, Draco had been watching after seeing the dispute between Gryffindor.

He neither went up to join in the fun nor chose to leave.

"Draco, aren't we going over? Maybe we can fight!" Crabbe came over and said.

With a tall body and a simple expression on his face, it seemed that it was the case.

"Why are we going over there?" Draco raised his head and glanced at Crabbe beside him.

"If you want to go, go by yourself. Ino won't let me get close to Harry!"

Even in the face of the excitement in front of him, Draco chose to refuse after a brief wait and see.

He picked up the dinner on the table and walked out of the hall without looking back.

As Draco gradually disappeared outside the hall, Crabbe changed his previous honest expression and stood there looking at Gryffindor thoughtfully.

After a while, a silly smile appeared on his face again.

…

In the Slytherin dormitory.

"You mean, Harry almost got into a fight with someone, and then many Gryffindors took the initiative to stand in front of him?"

Ino was eating dinner while listening to the news broadcast on the Malfoy recorder.

"That's right, I didn't leave but I didn't get close, but I saw everything."

Draco said what he saw and heard in the hall with a serious face.

"But I didn't expect that the first person to stand up would be George and Fred's sister. Oh, by the way! And your Granger, she stood up second..."

"What do you mean by my Granger? Speak properly!" Ino interrupted the news broadcast instantly.

It was just a preview of the hot spots, but it suddenly braked and switched to the entertainment and emotional channel.

"I'm speaking properly!" Draco changed to another mysterious expression.

"Although you have been hiding in the dormitory during this period, no one except me knows that you chat every day with a two-way mirror, but you also know that you can guarantee yourself but you can't guarantee the other side..."

Draco talked about all kinds of things he had seen and heard. During this time away from Harry, he found a new hobby.

Find out all kinds of secret and interesting things, and then come back to share them with Ino.

"So! The story between you two has been spread by Gryffindor girls, and basically everyone in the castle knows about it. Now many girls don't believe in love anymore, because only in this way will you break up..."

"Stop!" Ino interrupted this irrelevant topic again, looked at Draco who was excited, and said speechlessly:

"To be honest, it is really a mistake for the Malfoy family not to get involved in newspaper media. If you publish a magazine, maybe it will really become popular!"

But sometimes an unintentional joke can also have unexpected effects.

After hearing about the magazine, Draco was stunned for a moment, and then his mind was visibly spinning at high speed.

……

Ino didn't care about Draco's transformation. Since he stopped nagging, he was happy to be free.

But today's 'news' gave him another idea, an unprecedented idea.

Perhaps he thought Dumbledore was too complicated; or perhaps, there was not much planning at all...

But no matter what the facts are, today's scene, a little review, it is easy to think of Harry's change.

After nearly two months of conquest and discussion, a person was at his most helpless, and suddenly a group of friends stood up and blocked all attacks for him.

Although there is no family affection, there is friendship and even love.

For Harry, lacking the experience of the first two years of the original story, he must be a little fragile, but under great sorrow and joy, it is the easiest for a person to grow.

"Still so wise..." Ino couldn't help but sigh softly.

If it is true as he guessed, Dumbledore has undoubtedly calculated human nature.

The principal should have known long ago that it is not the lack of wealth but the inequality that will inevitably attract criticism.

But in the same way, in this matter, Dumbledore also believed in the light of human nature, and was sure that when Harry was most vulnerable and needed help the most, someone would stand up to share his burden.

Perhaps, this was not a perfect plan, but just a control of human nature.

No matter from which angle you look at it, Ino thinks it is very clever.

Maybe Harry will be wronged, but there is no protagonist in any story who is not wronged.
