Chapter 121
On a sunny Wednesday afternoon, Harry and Hermione were walking by the Black Lake.

The winter's cold gradually melted away, and the beech trees by the lake quietly sprouted new buds, and the Durmstrang ship was bobbing up and down in the thawed lake water again.

An hour ago, Ron was called by Parvati to find Professor Trelawney to answer his questions. Parvati was particularly interested in the star chart divination mentioned in the morning prophecy class.In front of Hermione, the two walked out of the common room sticky. For some reason, Hermione's reaction to this incident became very cold. She looked at Ron like a sea cucumber.

Hermione didn't say anything to Harry about Ron, they talked about the ballad in the golden egg again, so Harry told her about being caught by Professor Snape while wandering around the castle at the weekend.

"...So, not only did Professor Snape not deduct points for you, but he also agreed to help solve the mystery of the golden egg?" Hermione asked in surprise.

"Yeah, I just gave it a try," Harry said happily, "and then he took me to the office, and I told him the ballad in the golden egg, and he gave me a bottle of underwater breathing right after listening to it." Potion, helped me solve the biggest trouble."

"It's not right, why is he so nice to you?" Hermione's face was full of doubt and anxiety, "He's the Head of Slytherin House..."

"If I told Professor McGonagall, maybe she would help me too." Harry scratched his head, reaching out to flatten his messy black hair.

"Don't fool yourself, Harry!" Hermione shrieked. "Professor McGonagall is very strict, she can't help a student cheat - even if you are a Gryffindor. We all know that, Professor Snape Only tougher than her, and you're not even a student of his academy!"

"Even if it's not from Gryffindor, Professor Snape is also a teacher at Hogwarts. He must very much hope that the Hogwarts warriors will win."

"Then why doesn't he help Cedric?" Hermione asked seriously.

Harry was a little impatient with Hermione's excessive nervousness, "How do you know that he didn't help——Digory? Digory probably knew about the dragon thing last time from him."

Hermione tried hard to think about the words to retort, "...but, but he is so unnaturally warm to you, we should tell Professor Peddiell about these things—or even, Professor Dumbledore—"

"Professor Dumbledore and Professor Peddie Road are both busy. Dumbledore is busy mediating with the Ministry of Magic and hasn't shown up for several days. Professor Peddie Road is also busy dealing with the basilisk. Should I Go and tell them - Hey professors, listen to me, Snape was so nice to me, so I think he must be Voldemort's man, by the way, he bit himself on the poisonous snake he put in the hallway ..."

Hermione opened her mouth to argue, but Harry continued, "Maybe Dumbledore told Snape to do it, I'd be stupid if I went and told Dumbledore."

"Harry, he didn't know you before, and I think he's having some...fest with Professor Peddie and Sirius," whispered Hermione.

Harry recalled that night in confinement, Snape said something unpleasant happened between him and his father, and that incident seemed to be related to his scar, Harry also felt a little uncertain, he took out a small bottle from his pocket A clarifying potion.

"He said it was an underwater breathing potion. I might as well drink some now to try the effect of the potion. It's just right for me to find hidden things in the Black Lake."

Hermione nodded in agreement, Harry uncorked the bottle, the potion smelled like alcohol, he took a sip cautiously, Hermione stared at his face, ready to rush to the infirmary to ask Pomfrey for help lady.

"Does it feel weird?" Hermione asked.

Harry shook his head. He took off most of his clothes and glasses, and jumped into the cold black lake.

"Don't think of toilet sewage... don't think of toilet sewage..." He closed his eyes and warned himself, slowly put his head into the lake water, sniffed his nose tentatively, and cold water poured into his nasal cavity, but it was different from usual, haha Leigh didn't feel stinging or suffocating. The water flowed into his lungs and out of his mouth, and the whole process was easy and natural.

He surfaced excitedly and waved at Hermione, but his lungs were filled with water and he couldn't speak for a moment.

He dived into the water and tried to keep his eyes open, but the lake was muddy and his eyesight was so poor that it was impossible to find anything. Well, it will be troublesome.

He swam to the deep bottom of the lake with the agility of a real fish. James often took Harry out to swim and exercised his water skills very well. "Darwin" or something--did a match, and he got his cousin all over the place.

At last he saw the white sand at the bottom of the lake, with several rocks embedded in it, and Harry walked around it carefully so as not to scratch his feet.

He looked around and found nothing novel, let alone a mermaid. The Department of Sports and Sports of the Ministry of Magic should secretly arrange events under the Black Lake on the eve of the competition.

He searched aimlessly for 10 minutes. Except for the giant squid swimming over his head, there was nothing special in the lake. Harry looked up at its distant figure, lost in reverie.

The giant squid has lived in Hogwarts for a very long time. It is generally believed that it has survived for 1000 years, as long as the basilisk left by Slytherin in the chamber of secrets. Some unreliable sources say that the giant squid is Gran Fendor's Animagus form.

When Harry's parents were in school, the giant squid slithered in the lake like this. According to James, Lily's famous saying in her school days was: "If Potter is the only man left in the world, then I'd rather go out with the giant squid. "James said this as a joke during the summer vacation of Harry's third grade. Lily, who was studying the potion, immediately turned her face when she heard it, and gave James a hard time.

While swimming on the lake, Harry imagined the love story of his parents. It turned out that they also had a rough relationship. Then, would Qiu Zhang... Yes, sooner or later, she would find out that Cedric was just a silly little boy, except Besides being handsome, what's so good about him?
Harry poked his head out of the lake, coughed out the water in his lungs, and embraced the air again, but Hermione was no longer on the shore.

He looked into the distance, near the big ship Durmstrang, Professor Peddie and Professor Andonova stood together happily, their hands were very close, they were talking with Hermione and Krum As she said something, Hermione looked at Professor Peddie with admiration and nodded frequently.

Harry crawled up the lake bank wetly, dried himself with a spell, and hurriedly dressed... Well, the two couples, young and old, were chatting happily, and no one noticed him at all...

He couldn't help asking a soul question in his heart: Why did everyone become a pair?
