HP: The New God from Hogwarts

Chapter 238 You want me to play a fake game?

After dragging Newt to the Hog's Head Inn to watch Aberforth and Grindelwald's intense exercise all night, she was still full of energy until she participated in the first stage of the three-stage competition the next day.

Because a sky battle would probably be held, the stadium was built on top of a high cliff. The circular audience seats were packed with people, including students and professors from the three schools, as well as celebrities from the Ministry of Magic and the magical world.

From a distance, Tao Wu saw the Weasley twins, with a large box hanging on their chests, running around in the crowd. When she got closer, she could hear their shouts.

"Come and place your bets, come and gamble!"

"Don't miss it if you pass by!"

"A bloody battle is about to begin. Spend a little money to gamble here. You might win big!"

A Durmstrang student wearing a fur-collared cotton coat grabbed two gold galleons and put them into the box on George's chest, and placed the bet without hesitation: "I bet on Krum to win."

Fred wrote down the boy's name and bet in his notebook and sighed, "It's Krum again. It seems like almost everyone bet on him."

As soon as he finished speaking, a beautiful Beauxbatons girl walked up to the brothers, holding a gold Galleon in her hand, hesitated for a few minutes, then put it into the box on Fred's chest and whispered:

"I'm betting on Mr. Krum."

George raised his chin slightly, turned his eyes to the left, and glanced in Fred's direction: "Sure enough, not only those venomous snakes in Slytherin, but even the students of Beauxbatons have bet on Krum. Right now, the most people are betting on Krum and Luna, and no one is betting on Miss Delacour at all."

Fred nodded. He caught sight of Tao Wu out of the corner of his eye and his eyes lit up immediately. He nudged George next to him with his elbow and whispered something in his ear.

After hearing what he said, George also showed a malicious smile on his face. The two of them immediately ran towards her with the small box in their arms, sandwiching her on the left and right.

"Listen to me, Luna." Fred couldn't wait to speak, he leaned close to Tao Wu's ear and whispered something.

Tao Wu frowned after hearing this and asked him in a low voice, "You mean you want me to fake the match and lose to Furong on purpose?"

"Look, all the money here is for you and Krum to win." George shook the wooden box in his hand, and the crisp sound of gold galleons colliding came from it. "If we bet on Miss Delacour, if she wins, we--"

As he spoke, his eyebrows flew up, and he and Fred beside him smiled at each other. It must be said that they have a talent for making money, but they overlooked one point -

"But George, I alone am not enough. You two have to bribe Krum. I don't think he needs the money. He probably just wants the honor."

Tao Wu pursed her lips regretfully at them. In the distance, Professor McGonagall was already calling her to come over and prepare for the competition.

She winked at them both before she left. "Good luck to you, George, and Fred."

"Merlin, how could I forget about Krum?" Fred slapped his head. "I'd better bet on Luna. George, what about you?"

George stared blankly at Tao Wu's leaving back, muttering, "She can still recognize me as George at a glance. I'm betting on Luna."

As he said this, he took out a gold Galleon from his pocket and put it in his box.

Tao Wu, led by Professor McGonagall, came to a large tent where the contestants were preparing. Krum and Furong were already waiting there.

In addition to these two, she saw another old acquaintance, Rita Skeeter, a reporter who was best at talking nonsense.

"I heard you like a punk girl." Skeeter was now chattering around Krum. "From what I know, she doesn't seem to be interested in you. She always hangs out with the savior, Harry Potter. Do you want to make a splash in this competition and prove to her that you are better than the savior?"

Her feather pen was suspended in the air, writing on the notebook. Tao Wu walked over curiously and took a look. It said -

The famous Quidditch star Krum actually falls in love with a Muggle-born girl, but the girl seems to like the savior who lives with her day and night. Krum participates in the Triwizard Tournament for love, trying to prove himself. How can a Muggle-born girl get along with two world-famous people...

Tao Wu's scalp tingled. Skeeter was simply telling lies with his eyes open. He made up a bloody story that was even more vicious than Vivian. Hermione's real boyfriend Ron Weasley didn't even have a chance to appear.

It's obviously a movie about three people, but I still can't name them.

Krum, who was being harassed by Skeeter, had veins popping out on his forehead. If the other person wasn't a woman, he would have punched her face until it was dented.

He likes Hermione, but that doesn't mean he allows others to make fun of Hermione.

"You shouldn't make up other people's private affairs at will." Fleur frowned and looked at Skeeter, strongly condemning her infringement.

"Then let's talk about you, Miss Delacour, who has the blood of a charming girl. You must have been involved with many men." Skeeter turned around with a smile on his face, full of rumors, and was ready to look at Fleur triumphantly.

What greeted her was not Furong's angry face, but Taowu's sinister smile.

"Why would you want to hang out with men if you're pretty? Are men a rare species?" Tao Wu blinked at her, "Could it be that our Miss Beetle is actually a spiritual man in a female appearance?"

Skeeter had been so focused on writing an anecdote for Krum that he hadn't noticed she had walked in.

Skeeter dared to offend Krum and Fleur, because she knew that these two would not do anything to her except blushing and getting angry, but she did not dare to offend Taowu, because this person would really hit hard.

The last time she created Ms. Rosier's Yellow Ballad, this person threw her in her Animagus form into a bird's nest, and she was almost swallowed by those stupid birds. As a result, she still has a phobia of sharp beaks.

Skeeter immediately gave Tao Wu, who was standing in front of Furong, a fake flattering smile. She waved her hands quickly and said, "I was just joking with you guys to liven up the heavy atmosphere before the game."

Tao Wu crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow at her.

Skeeter took a step back guiltily, and when he approached the tent door, he immediately took back the notebook and quill, transformed into an Animagus and turned into a beetle and flew away quickly.

"She escaped!" Furong said angrily.

Krum frowned, "I failed to snatch her notebook away. She's talking nonsense in the Daily Prophet, which will cause trouble for Hermione's life."

He was still wondering if Hermione would cause trouble.

If Ron wasn't a good friend, Tao Wu would definitely fight Krum for a second.

She shook her sleeves. "It doesn't matter. Beetle won't say anything, because -

She’s afraid of dying.”
