Hogwarts card wizard

Saturday, late at night.

In order to make an agreement with Sirius, Kevin, Harry, Ron and Hermione did not go back to sleep, but sat in the common room and waited for the time to come.

"Ah!" Harry yawned long, and asked "weakly", "What time is it?"

Kevin glanced at his watch and said, "45:[-], it's almost here, hold on for a while."

That is to say, but Kevin himself is also very sleepy, and his biological clock keeps urging his body to sleep and rest.

At this moment, Ron was also yawning again and again, and said, "If we had known, we would have gone back to sleep first, and it's really unbearable to wait like this."

Kevin drank a cup of strong tea and said, "Shut up! This is your proposal, and you are not qualified to say it."

Compared to the three of them, Hermione said energetically, "I suggest you do something you like so that you can divert your attention. For example: wizard chess."

Ron immediately vetoed the proposal and said, "No way! You need to use your brain to play chess, and if you use your brain, I will get sleepy."

Hermione glanced at him speechlessly and shook her head, then continued to read her book.

Harry smiled and said, "I really admire you, Hermione! After reading the book for so long, I don't feel sleepy. Books are a hypnotic tool for me."

Hermione said, "That's why your grades are so bad."

"..."

The time finally came to one o'clock in the morning.All four of them looked around, but there was no one else in the room except them, not even a ghost.

Ron said dissatisfiedly: "Sirius is not playing us."

Kevin said: "Although he has a little humor, he is not joking about this kind of thing."

I was talking suddenly...

There was a strange noise from the fireplace, which was very ear-piercing in the quiet room. The four of them found that the dying fire in the fireplace began to emit sparks, but the flame did not ignite, but the charcoal turned red.

At this moment, a heavy panting sound came from the fire, as if he breathed fresh air suddenly after being held in the water for a long time.

Then a human face appeared in the fire.

The scene in this ghost movie frightened the four of them, Harry glanced at the face and asked cautiously: "Sirius?"

Only then did they notice that the face in the fireplace was familiar, it was Sirius.

Kevin said: "Please, let's make an announcement in advance next time! You can easily scare people out of trouble like this."

Sirius said in the fire, "Sorry! Children, but I won't talk nonsense because it's urgent. I received Harry's letter. Kevin, did you put your name into the Goblet of Fire?"

Kevin said immediately: "Of course not, I never planned to participate in this competition from the beginning."

Sirius said: "Then you have to be careful, Kevin! This matter is definitely not as simple as imagined."

Hermione asked, "Is this related to the Death Eater attack at the World Cup?"

"I think so!" said Sirius, "but...if that's the case, their target should be Harry."

Harry said: "I thought so before, but now the name that appears in the Goblet of Fire is Kevin. Is this really a coincidence?"

Sirius said: "Of course not. Kevin didn't put his name into the Goblet of Fire, but he became one of the three warriors. This in itself shows that it is not a coincidence. Harry, tell me about your dream! I think There should be a connection between them, you mentioned in your letter that there were other people besides Wormtail and Voldemort, who is that person?"

Harry said, "How would I know? I don't know that guy at all, oh! By the way, he looks a lot like the guy who fired the Dark Mark that night at the World Cup."

"Huh?" Everyone in the room was shocked, and Kevin asked hastily, "Why didn't you say this before?"

Harry smiled wryly; "Please, my dream was before the World Cup, and how could I see my scar clearly that night when it hurt like that."

Sirius asked, "What about you? Did you see clearly?"

Kevin said: "I can see the man's appearance clearly, but the key is that I am not dreaming!"

Sirius said: "In any case, there are signs that what happened in the World Cup has such a great relationship with Kevin being selected as the top three warriors."

At this time, Hermione also raised a question that both Kevin and Harry had doubts about. She said, "But why Kevin? I mean, if the mastermind behind the scenes is really Voldemort or the Death Eaters, their target should be Harry." , not Kevin."

Harry nodded and said, "Kevin and I also talked about it."

Sirius replied: "This is the bad part. We don't know what the other party is thinking. This shows that Hogwarts is no longer safe. You must pay attention to safety."

Harry asked suspiciously, "What do you mean?"

Kevin said: "You mean that Voldemort has already planted his eyeliner in Hogwarts?"

Sirius said: "That's right! Igor Karkaroff, he was a Death Eater before, and no Death Eater can ever turn his back on it. And Barty Crouch."

"Barty Crouch?" Kevin said in surprise, "Isn't he from the Ministry of Magic?"

Sirius said: "Yes, but he has a heart of stone and sent his son to Azkaban with his own hands. Little Barty is a Death Eater."

Hermione said: "If it's really them, it makes sense. These two people can indeed put Kevin's name into the Goblet of Fire."

Ron smiled wryly, and said, "This is fun, a headmaster, a high-ranking official from the Ministry of Magic, neither of them is a fuel-efficient lamp."

"No matter who it is, it must be malicious!" Sirius said: "Kevin, you must pay attention! People have been killed in the three-finals. Although we don't know what their purpose is, maybe it is to let you Died in the game."

Kevin sneered and said, "If they really think so, they must be disappointed."

"It's best! In short, you must pay attention to the actions of the people around you during this time. Perhaps the mastermind behind the scenes is one of the two people mentioned just now, or someone else."

……

Although Sirius did not bring the truth of the incident, he at least pointed out two suspects to Kevin and the others.

But for now, finding the truth is not the most important thing for Kevin.Compared to these, what he has to do now is to keep himself alive in the Triwizard Tournament.

After Sirius "leaved", the four of them endured exhaustion and drowsiness and held a "combat meeting" to determine the next plan.

According to previous guesses, no matter who "helped" sign up for him, this person must be at Hogwarts, and his fox tail will be exposed sooner or later as the competition progresses.

Based on this guess and the intelligence brought by Sirius, they decided to focus on Kevin's participation in the competition to ensure that he could survive safely.Secondly, secretly observe Igor Karkarov and Barty Crouch, and at the same time collect as much information as possible about them.
