"I noticed that another very important referee was not present today." Rita frowned, seeming a little confused, "Is it because Mr. Crouch was not present today that there was an unforgivable loophole in the rules of the game? ? Please tell me how you can correct it so that you don’t make the same mistake today again?”

"This kind of thing seems to have nothing to do with you, Ms. Skeeter." Durmstrang's new principal, Mr. Gustav, said coldly, "This is the Four-wizard Tournament, not a place for you to make up gossip and scandals. "

Hearing this, Rita smiled coquettishly, "So, does Mr. Gustav mean that except for students and professors from the four colleges, no one else has the right to know?"

Mr. Gustav looked at her and rolled his eyes, "Then please give the readers the right to know! You lie-mouthed liar!"

The smile on Rita's face froze. She thought it might be because she was tricked by that Muggle. Botox and hyaluronic acid can't make people younger at all, they can only make muscles stiff!

She has felt resistance from her facial muscles many times today!

Can this kind of thing really make people younger?

I really don’t have muscles that are so stiff that I need to have them removed, right? !

Terrified, she left everything to the salesman who insisted on taking her to get so-called cosmetic injections. Rita Skeeter cleared her throat and said in a sweet voice, "Principal Gustav , I don’t understand what you are talking about at all..."

As she spoke, she leaned forward slightly, and finally squeezed out her proud figure to get closer to Gustav, "You must have lost your composure just now because you were too worried about the students, let's do it again..."

At this moment, the cheers of the audience covered up what she wanted to say next, and Rita felt that her muscles seemed to twitch again.

damn it!

You bastards!

Can't you understand the hardships of a journalist?

"Seriously, Harry, you show your head first." Robert grabbed the eager Cedric and said to Harry.

This is not that he is flattering Mr. Savior. In fact, if possible, he also wants to let Cedric show his head first. In that case, his score will be very high and he will be several blocks ahead of the others.

but.

Don't be afraid of anything in this world, just be afraid of nothing.

The mermaid leader stared directly at them, opening and closing his mouth several times, wanting to speak and then stopping, over and over again. It seemed that he had a lot to say, but he was too shy to speak.

Only the excited Harry, Hermione and Cedric didn't notice the hesitation.

Cedric looked at his friend in confusion, wondering why he would have such a suggestion. Didn't he hope that he would win the championship?

The friend did not speak, but pointed to the mermaid leader on the side.

He looked at the female leader in confusion, her somewhat ferocious face filled with helplessness and pleading.

Cedric seemed to understand something. He looked at Harry, the excitement in his eyes quickly faded, and he was a little envious and a little jealous.

Harry was completely unable to interpret the many emotions in Cedric's eyes. He just said a little shyly, "I didn't do anything this time. I shouldn't have gone ashore first. Whether it was swimming or discovering the secret of the snail shrimp, it was Cedric You can do it, so you go up first, Hermione and I will go up in a moment."

After hearing Harry's words, the complicated emotions in Cedric's eyes eased slightly. He calmed down and smiled, "It's okay. Your score in the first game seemed to be much lower than mine, right? I'll give you more this time." Score some points, Hogwarts takes the top two spots, what do you think of this stunt?"

Harry wanted to say something more, but Cedric forcefully pushed him and Hermione to the shore with the excuse of "If you continue to refuse, people from other schools might get to the shore before us."

As the two men slowly emerged from the water, the audience immediately erupted in unimaginable cheers, celebrating the return of the first warrior to emerge from the water.

Cedric glanced at the female leader who seemed to be relieved, and said seriously, "I am not humble because he is Harry Potter, but because this is Principal Dumbledore's expectation."

The female leader seemed to understand what he said, nodded, hesitated, took off a small bag from her waist, and handed it to Cedric.

Seid was a little confused, and then his expression changed, "I can't ask for this, otherwise it would be match-fixing!"

The female leader had an innocent expression, as if she didn't quite understand why Cedric was angry.

Cedric ignored her and swam to the shore angrily, and he also received enthusiastic cheers from the students of Hogwarts.

Robert had to follow him to prove that he was the "rescued" hostage and not that this guy ran ashore without even finding anyone.

That would definitely mess up the game.

The female leader felt helpless and wanted to hand the small bag to Robert, but was rejected again.

"I'm sorry, madam." Robert said apologetically in mermaid language, "In our human society, if you lose the game and accept other people's things, it is a very unethical behavior, but you can express it in another way. Kindness, for example, how about formally inviting us to the Mermaid Village next time?”

The female leader finally understood and nodded, no longer insisting on giving her a small thank you gift.

Cedric floated on the water with some dissatisfaction, he was sulking.

He was very dissatisfied with the actions of the mermaid female leader. Was he the kind of person who would fake matches just for a little profit?

He actually humiliated him with a small bag of who-knows-what!

unacceptable!

Just when he was furious, Robert emerged from the bottom of the water. He first touched the water on his face, and then patted Cedric on the shoulder, "You wrongly blamed her, she just wanted to express something." With good intentions, I invite you to visit Mermaid Village next time."

Cedric was stunned, and then he thought that he was a human and the other person was a mermaid. Maybe, maybe, probably, maybe, there was really a little difference in this aspect?

"Um..." He scratched his head and said with some embarrassment, "Well, please apologize to me and her. I was too impulsive..."

Robert gestured to him to indicate that he had done it.

Next, it’s time to reap victory.

As the first warrior to emerge from the water, Harry's score was the highest, which made his ranking rise a little among the eight contestants, becoming second place. The first place is still Cedric, there is no doubt about this .

"I'm glad you were able to successfully complete the second game." Principal Dumbledore said with a smile, "Please continue to work hard for the next third game."
