Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor Peter

Chapter 187 Pre-match preparation
Peter awoke the next morning with a headache, still feeling the effects of the strong drink he had drank the night before, but feeling a lot lighter.

The castle was still full of joy as Ernie MacMillan and Justin Fenryry engaged in another tense duel of stone knights in the Great Hall, Fred and George sold homemade lottery tickets to the crowd, and even the usual Some unsmiling Durmstrang students were happy to participate.

After all the laughter and laughter, Peter remembered that he had promised to reward the outstanding students of the Defense Against the Dark Arts Club and the outstanding colleges, but in the end he canceled it because the work of researching green spells was too urgent, but it didn’t matter, compared to those really important ones Things, this matter can wait.

Mr. Ludo Bagman came to the school one day earlier. He was wearing the uniform of the Wimbourne Hornets. He still looked so happy. He tirelessly signed his name for all the fans and students who asked for autographs.

However, the Ministry of Magic did not send Mr. Bagman here to distribute autographs. This afternoon, he politely invited Peter, McGonagall and Flitwick to see the venue of the labyrinth session.

"Professor Dumbledore hopes that everyone will be the security officer of this game together," Ludo said, pointing to the large maze, "When the game tomorrow, the Ministry of Magic will temporarily cancel the anti-apparition spell in this area. Dangerous, they will emit a red signal, when the time comes, please apparate directly to the place where the signal was emitted."

After speaking, Ludo ran into the maze by himself and sent a red signal into the sky. Peter, McGonagall, and Flitwick turned around and Apparated almost at the same time, landing precisely and lightly beside Ludo.

"It's perfect!" Ludo sighed, "As expected of the professors of Hogwarts. On the day of the competition, please patrol the place closest to the maze. The Ministry of Magic will also let Aurors and security guards protect other places."

After the brief rehearsal was over, the three of them turned around and went back to the castle together. Professor McGonagall seemed to have something to ask Peter, but fortunately Ludo Bagman said loudly, "Professor Peddie, please stay."

Peter took the opportunity to slip away from Professor McGonagall. It turned out that Ludo hoped that Peter could help set up some creatures in the maze, so Peter conjured up a miniature fire dragon, a three-headed dog and a scary-looking non-toxic A boa constrictor, Ludo was surprised to see.

On the day of the game, the castle was very lively.

Owls flew over the Gryffindor table, spilling Ron's milk.Harry wasn't in the mood for breakfast, but Hedwig had brought him a package.

Harry opened the package, and it turned out to be a note from Sirius and Hagrid.Sirius had to stand guard with the other security guards, and Hagrid had gone to the maze early to help arrange the magical creatures used in the game, so neither of them could personally encourage Harry before the game.

Along with the random note were two lucky cards, Hagrid's lucky card had a small flower stuck to it, the kind on the head of a swamp monster, and Sirius' card was signed with a giant dog's paw print, Harry Smile knowingly.

At the teachers' table, Dumbledore looked worried and not as cheerful as usual.Professor Pedilu and Professor Andonova talked in a low voice, and the two of them no longer talked and laughed like they used to.

The breakfast was coming to an end, and the teachers left the auditorium one after another to help the Ministry of Magic set up the venue. The students still gathered in the auditorium and chatted happily, looking forward to the evening banquet and the final of the Triwizard Cup.

"Dear children!" Dolores Umbridge's sweet voice sounded, "Hogwarts is under the threat of dangerous elements, please abide by the regulations of the Ministry of Magic and leave the auditorium in an orderly manner, Do not leave the common rooms of the colleges without permission."

"Woo--" The auditorium was full of applause.

"The Ministry of Magic did not allow us to leave the common room because of the basilisk incident, and now the basilisk has been tamed by Professor Peddie!" The students argued in a hurry.

Hearing Peter's name, Umbridge immediately tore off her amiable mask, and her toad-mouth grinned wider, "These students are so rude! Mr. Filch, evacuate all these students, someone dares to If you don't obey my order, I will talk directly to their dean—”

"Dolores," Professor McGonagall appeared condescendingly behind her shoulders, "Thank you for helping us maintain order. Please go to the venue and have a look. There was a little trouble when the Magic Education Committee cleaned up the weeds."

Umbridge pouted angrily, but said nothing. Professor McGonagall ignored her and turned to the students, "Please don't act alone. There may be some unsafe factors today. But you can move freely in the castle." She glanced in Harry's direction, "Four warriors, please follow me."

Harry jumped up from his chair in fright, "Professor, isn't the game at night..."

"I know, Potter," said Professor McGonagall, "the relatives of the Warriors are invited to the school to watch the game, and you can meet."

Harry bid farewell to Ron and Hermione in a hurry, and walked into the meeting room with the others. He didn't look forward to this session at all. He had just written a letter to his parents, and he received a bunch of instructions in the reply. Wait until they I really met him, but I still don't know how to nag him.

As soon as the warriors entered, James was the first to rush up, "Harry!" He took Harry into his arms, "You are so proud of us, you are a true Hogwarts warrior!"

When Mr. Diggory heard this, his expression darkened. He looked Harry up and down, and said to Cedric, "Syd, so this is the classmate Potter you defeated in the Quidditch match last year." , I don’t see anything special about it.”

Cedric's face was a little red, he took a peek at Harry, and said in a low voice, "No, don't say that, I don't really beat Harry, it's just that it was raining that day, and there was something wrong with Harry's glasses. "

"So what?" said Mr. Diggory haughtily. "You have won the honor, and good eyesight is a great advantage in itself."

James pushed his glasses and said louder, "Harry, I heard you got a perfect score in the second game—"

"Syd, I heard that you don't hesitate to give up the game to help Harry out of danger—"

"You're the only contestant to solve the key puzzle—"

"Okay, James." Lily put her hand on James' shoulder calmly, pinched him hard, and James angrily fell silent.

Cedric also frowned, "Dad, stop talking, Harry was plotted against, he was originally the fastest."

The fight between Mr. Potter and Mr. Diggory finally came to an end. In order to avoid further embarrassment, Harry greeted Cedric, dragged his parents out of the meeting room, and went to the castle. Visit everywhere.

Harry walked out of the auditorium gate with his parents and walked towards the sunny field. Harry took them to see Hagrid's cabin and the Dragon Arena. James pointed to the deer head on the top of the Dragon Arena and laughed. .

But when James and Lily walked under the Whomping Willow, their expressions became visibly serious.

"Harry, Sev--Professor Snape all right?" Lily asked.
