Unseal at Hogwarts

Goyle didn't seem to react, and Malfoy rolled his eyes gracefully.

Tom was about to open the door by himself when Crabbe on the side gave Goyle a hard push, and then Goyle hurriedly pushed open the classroom door.

Tom smiled at Goyle and Crabbe to express his gratitude, and then walked into the classroom with Kerubelos.

Behind him, Malfoy, who was still smiling, suddenly darkened his face for some unknown reason, let out an angry "hum", shook his head and left.

Goyle and Crabbe, who were confused, touched their heads and quickly followed.

There are already people in the classroom.

Ludo Bagman was sitting on a chair in front of the blackboard in the classroom, talking to a witch.

Viktor Krum stood in a corner with a gloomy face, not talking to anyone. Cedric Diggory was talking to Fleur Delacour, and they looked very happy.

A potbellied man stood near them holding a black camera, looking at Fleur Delacour out of the corner of his eye from time to time.

As soon as Tom walked in, Ludo Bagman immediately saw him.

He quickly glanced behind Tom and stood up: "The fourth warrior is here!"

The classroom instantly became quiet.

Tom touched Kerubelos uneasily.

"Don't worry, Tom," Ludo Bagman smiled, "it's just a wand testing ritual. The other referees will be here soon."

Tom nodded.

"In future competitions, the wand is your most important equipment." Ludo Bagman explained, "We must check whether your wand is fully functional and in good condition. The experts and Dumbledore are upstairs.

After that, I just took a few photos——"

The witch who was talking to Ludo Bagman also came over.

"This is Rita Skeeter," Ludo Bagman pointed to the witch. "She is writing an article about the Triwizard Tournament for the Daily Prophet."

Rita Skeeter was wearing a magenta robe, her hair was styled into rather delicate yet weird curls, and her long nails were painted bright red.

Tom looked away slightly uncomfortably.

"Before we begin, can I have a word with our littlest warrior?" Rita Skeeter asked.

"Of course!" Bagman said loudly, "Tom, you don't mind?"

But Rubelos leaned closer to Tom.

"Maybe?" said Tom.

Rita Skeeter was a little reluctant, but when she saw the grinning Kerubelos next to Tom, she could only close her mouth.

What followed was an awkward silence for Tom.

Fortunately, it didn't take long before other referees, Dumbledore and an old wizard came in.

Tom's eyes widened in surprise. He had just met the old wizard before school started.

"Please allow me to introduce Mr. Ollivander." Dumbledore sat down on the referee's bench in front of the blackboard. "He will be checking your wands to make sure they are in good condition before the game."

If it were before, Tom would have been somewhat panicked, fearing that his situation would be discovered. But since conquering the "elimination" card, Tom felt that Dumbledore must have some understanding of his situation, so now he is not panicked at all.

Tom sat down on the chair by the door with several warriors, but Rubelos squatted down beside him obediently.

"Miss Delacour, you come first, okay?" Mr. Ollivander walked to the open space in the center of the room.

Fleur Delacour walked forward with light steps and handed him her wand.

The wand spun deftly in Mr. Ollivander's hand, spraying out many golden-pink sparks. Then he brought the wand close to his eyes and looked at it carefully.

The wand detection speed is very fast, and Tom's is the last one.

When Tom handed his wand to Mr. Ollivander, Mr. Ollivander's light eyes shone with excitement.

"Eleven and one-half inches, silver-haired basswood, unicorn hair..." Mr. Ollivander fiddled with Tom's wand, "It just seemed like it was not that long ago, didn't it?"

Tom glanced at Dumbledore and saw that he was looking at him with a smile, so he also smiled and replied: "Yes sir, I still remember the scene when you sold the wand to me!"

Mr. Ollivander curled his lips slightly.

"In good condition..." He checked Tom's wand, the light in his eyes getting brighter and brighter.

Mr. Ollivander spent much longer examining Tom's wand than the others.

When he finally returned the wand to Tom, he announced that Tom's wand was in excellent condition.

Tom touched his wand lovingly and felt very good.

Afterwards, Tom and several warriors took a few photos with the referees.

After finally taking photos, Tom took Kerubelos and followed a few warriors to lead the auditorium - it was already dinner time.

Harry was sitting at the Slytherin table, eating and giggling.

Tom couldn't help but shook his head and sat down next to him.

"Is there any new development here?" Tom asked Harry as he filled a plate of mashed potatoes.

"Hey, Tom." Harry couldn't hide the smile on his face, "She smiled at me!"

"Not a bad start, right?" Tom said.

Harry chuckled.

"You know you're smiling like a fool right now?"

"Forgive me, I just can't help it."

In the next two weeks, Tom and Harry finally learned all the spells provided by Sirius.

At the same time, Rita Skeeter's article about the Triwizard Tournament was published.

What makes Tom feel embarrassed is that this article is not so much a report on the Triwizard Tournament as it is an exaggerated description of the relationship between Tom and Harry.

Perhaps out of revenge for Tom's previous attitude, this article spent three full pages distorting the friendship between Tom and Harry, portraying their pure friendship as a sneaky love, and even paired it with a

A huge photo of them learning spells in an empty classroom.

The photo seemed to have been taken outside the classroom. Due to the angle, Tom in the photo seemed to be hugging Harry from behind, while Harry was smiling sideways at Tom.

Regardless of the identity of the person involved, Tom thought this photo captured the two of them very nicely.

After this article was published, people in Hogwarts looked at Tom and Harry differently.

As long as Tom and Harry appear together, no matter which house the girls are in, even Slytherin and Gryffindor, they all seem to put aside their years of conflicts, gather together, and look at Tom and Harry with startlingly bright eyes.

Harry chuckled.

The boys, on the other hand, tried their best to make fun of the two of them. Weasley and Thomas, who had been teased by the "mirror" card before, even took the lead in making fun of them mercilessly.
