The Occult Warlock of Hogwarts

After another full day of classes, Hermione and DeWitt agreed to find a place to practice dancing when there were fewer people. But when Hermione changed her clothes and came down from the second floor of the dormitory, she found that DeWitt

Te just opened a letter. Next to it was a black owl, which had just finished eating the food DeWitt had given it and was about to flutter its wings and leave.

"Come, Hermione," DeWitt didn't have a smile on his face. He waved to Hermione, folded the letter paper along the middle mark and handed it over, and said: "Look, it's a letter from my mother."<

/p>

After experiencing the situation last time when Hermione called Ms. Fierre by her first name but did not recognize her, DeWitt later chatted with Hermione several times and simply changed the name of Ms. Fierre in front of others.

Now, it is natural for DeWitt to call Ms. Feier his mother.

At this time, the twins who had been watching for a long time suddenly rushed over, with the same long-suffering expression flashing on their faces, as if their full desire to talk had been accumulated for ten or twenty years without being vented, and as soon as they found a gap, they

He kept saying: "Haha, DeWitt... you definitely don't know what happened after you left yesterday. This matter has something to do with you."

DeWitt was in a bad mood now, so he half-closed his eyelids for a few seconds to adjust his mood. When he could face his friends with a normal attitude, he opened his eyes and asked cooperatively: "What's wrong?"

"Yesterday at noon..." George just started, but Fred interrupted him: "Do you remember that Beauxbatons warrior?"

"Remember." DeWitt nodded slightly.

"Didn't she invite you to be her dance partner yesterday?"

"I remember this too," DeWitt said: "What happened?"

"You rejected her invitation and humiliated her severely," the twins relished the matter. They seemed to have put themselves in DeWitt's shoes: "How enjoyable! You know what happened to her after you and Hermione left."

How ugly is your expression? That look of holding on... Well, it seems like you are not interested in this matter."

DeWitt indeed put on a cold face.

"The key point is after that," the twins continued: "You know? Our younger brother - Ron - saw that the Beauxbatons warrior was very sad, so he mustered up the courage to step forward to comfort him..."

"The Beauxbatons warrior is obviously very well-educated. She politely responded to Ron's concern. Perhaps these responses caused Ron to misunderstand..."

"Maybe Ron thinks he can take advantage of it, anyway..."

"He sent an invitation to the ball to the Beauxbatons warriors."

DeWitt knew what was going to happen next. One night was enough for him to figure out that Fleur Delacour invited him not because she felt good about herself, but because she wanted to use girls' methods to indirectly hurt Hermione. Maybe Fleur had already

His favorite dance partner, so Ron Weiss was destined to be as devastated as a heir, but this could be attributed to his understandable immaturity, so he didn't care about these things and just continued to cooperate: "Well, let me guess -

—The half-blood witch rejected him?"

"Then it's just a rejection. It's no big deal! It's just that Ron is really disappointing!" Fred scolded angrily: "Ron didn't even wait for the witch to say the word of rejection! He was glanced at - maybe

He looked at it for a few more seconds - and then ran away. Until now, Ginny is still comforting him, and this has been comforting him for almost a day!"

"Although Ron is useless and timid, he has many thoughts in his mind, and he always likes to put pressure and burden on himself...but he is still our brother, but he can't be regarded as Beauxbatons's in any way.

It's the Warriors' fault. So actually we didn't come to you just to let you have fun," George explained: "We don't think Ron can continue like this, and we have to find a way to make him... stand up."

DeWitt really laughed this time - a smile without any meaning, and he said: "What do you want to do?"

"It's just that we have no idea, so we came to ask you," the twins said: "After all, we have had successful cooperation experience and deep friendship. You and Hermione are reliable enough."

"I don't know," DeWitt said frankly: "If you asked me to find a way to beat the warriors of other schools, I can immediately think of at least five different curses, but you want me to do this kind of thing?

I think - you still have to rely on yourself to grow..."

At this time, Hermione came over angrily, pressed the letter to DeWitt's chest, and said angrily: "Is it over yet? That sow! I really want to poke her writing pen on her butt and kill her.

She turned into a thrush that could no longer scream... Oh, it's Fred and George, what's wrong?"

Fred and George had never seen Hermione look like this before, and they seemed to be shocked and didn't speak for a while.

"It's Ron's problem," DeWitt said simply: "I can't help."

"I can't help it," Hermione didn't have time to think about anything else. She said to DeWitt: "What's even more strange about me is that there wasn't anyone around when Krum invited me. Then

How on earth did Rita Skeeter know about this?"

"Maybe it was Klum who said it?" DeWitt guessed.

"What are you talking about?" The twins were confused: "Why are you suddenly related to Klum?"

DeWitt and Hermione looked at each other and decided to give the twins their trust, so they briefly told what had happened before and related to Krum.

The twins looked at each other and said hesitantly: "We have heard a little bit, but we think it is a rumor..." Soon they realized the ambiguity in this sentence and quickly changed their words: "So you rejected it?"

"Rejected," Hermione said.

"Oh, compared to what happened yesterday, it doesn't seem too surprising," the twins sighed: "Well, of your pair, one rejected Krum, and the other rejected the hybrid Veela... From now on

From a certain perspective, you two really match each other."

"Then Rita Skeeter plans to report on related things - related to Krum, related to the Triwizard Tournament, and related to love and hatred..." DeWitt said: "

As for the accuracy of the report? Using some tricks of wording and sentence formation can make ambiguous news seem possible."

"Dad told us about Rita Skeeter," Fred said, "Dad said Rita Skeeter knew how to take advantage of the heat."

"And she has selective professional ethics -" George added: "For example, in terms of inquiring, she always has a way to get first-hand information, and in terms of seeking truth from facts... actually... it is a bit difficult to evaluate. If you look carefully

A careful study of her word choice reveals that she either expresses opinions based on objective facts that are subjective and personal, or she prefers strange descriptions to tease the audience's emotions - and this is actually not worthy of criticism.

”

"So what method did she use? I really don't want to let her go. At least I can't make it easy for her. There must be some joint here that I haven't figured out..." Hermione thought hard, frowning and said: "I

I feel that the answer to this question is easy to break through, even with things I have come into contact with...but I really can't think of it now..."

"It's all because you know too much, Hermione," the twins smiled kindly: "But don't worry, it is said that after one night, the answers to some questions will pop out by themselves..."

"But how on earth did you keep that woman Rita Skeeter from making any move?" The twins grasped the point, and they asked in confusion: "Rita Skeeter understands the timeliness of reports very well.

How important, but how many days has it been?"

"My... mother," DeWitt said, "had some contact with the person in charge of the Daily Prophet, and I was mentioned in the report, so Rita Skeeter's report was temporarily withheld under the name

When Rita Skeeter has written enough, I will send it out together in a big one."

"She won't be suspicious after a long time?" Hermione asked.

"What's the use of doubting?" DeWitt said: "It doesn't matter abroad. Other newspapers don't have the authority of the Daily Prophet. Rita Skeeter thinks very highly of herself and looks down on other newspapers. For people like her,

She said that having her article published in "The Quibbler" would be more uncomfortable than killing her. She would never have the courage to sink her ship until the last moment."

"Look, you're talking nonsense again," Hermione urged: "I want to know even more - what should I do next?"

DeWitt said nothing, he looked at the twins.

"What's wrong?" the twins asked confusedly: "You want us to help you make up your mind?"

"No," DeWitt said, "I mean, Hermione and I are going to dance practice. Don't you have anything else to do?"
