Reborn Evil Wizard

Chapter 121 The Arrival of the Triumvirate Tournament

In the end, Potter and Lin Xi didn't make it to the end either. It wasn't because Young Master Lin was so resistant, and it wasn't because Potter's methods were not tough enough, but because the butler, Old Boley, who had left, started knocking on the door of the room again.

Being interrupted one after another completely exhausted Master Lin's interest.

People from the Ministry of Magic came to his estate for a routine inspection.

Since the chaotic night of the previous Quidditch World Cup, the wizarding world, especially the British wizarding world, has been in turmoil. Countless newspapers and gossip are rumoring the return of the Dark Lord Voldemort. With Ben's escape and most of the dementors' rebellion, the Ministry of Magic had to tense their nerves. They began to search nervously, especially for those families who were pro-Dark Lord and suspected Death Eaters. It is important to emphasize that although they can't do anything to these powerful and influential wizard nobles who have a dark history, they are always keeping an eye on these wizards under the desperation of the Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge and the secret fuel of Dumbledore. It is not impossible to change the family and conduct a random search.

As for Lin Xi, the last descendant of Slytherin rumored to the outside world, his manor is of course also a key object of care.

Lin Xi secretly slandered, he bet, it would be really strange if Dumbledore's old bee was not instigated.

To be honest, Dumbledore's feelings for Lin Xi are really quite complicated.On the one hand, as the only orphan of his favorite disciple, he should take care of him, but because of the existence of Harry Potter, Lin Xi herself is not so special; on the other hand, because of Lin Xi's original personality and attitude As a result, Dumbledore has not identified with him any more strongly than the possibility that he was an accidental Horcrux of Voldemort's.

It has to be said that Porter is able to go so smoothly now, how much scapegoat his well-known big brother has borne for him!

Moreover, in Dumbledore's eyes, a character with special characteristics like Lin Xi is obviously a very useful pawn, of course, it must be under his control.Regarding Lin Xi, perhaps Dumbledore was both cautious and vigilant, and also had the emotion of being reluctant to take a step into the dark.So he grasped what he thought was the weakness that Lin Xi intentionally left for him——Harry Potter!

Perhaps in his psychology, the only one who can make Young Master Lin feel wary and obedient is the twin brothers who are the closest blood relatives.

When sending away the group of wizard officials who finished their work after a random turn around in their manor—this shows that Lin Xi's external power and money offensives are still very effective at this time, at least as long as the Ministry of Magic is not too old-fashioned. High-minded wizards or wizards with abnormal minds—for example, Arthur Weasley, who is a die-hard member of the Order of the Phoenix aside, the others are not so pretentious as to intentionally provoke a pure-blood noble who is not easy to mess with— Especially when this noble is still a Slytherin.

He signaled old Bray to see off the guest, and when he returned to his room, Potter was no longer here.Lin Xi is very clear that so far no one is willing to let the outside world know the relationship between the two of them. No matter what kind of relationship this relationship is, in short, it is necessary to avoid the sight of the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore. Before they fully surfaced, they all needed to hide.

After casually looking around, Gardney had already left, which he didn't really care about, anyway, Potter didn't really intend to kill his proud subordinates and have a falling out with him.

It's just that in a short period of time, his bedroom has been restored to its original state, and it looks like the house elf is surprisingly diligent.The originally dark and ambiguous environment was swept away, the heavy floor-to-ceiling curtains were opened, the windows were bright, and the whole room was bathed in bright and bright sunlight, which made his idea of ​​going back to sleep completely defeated, so he had to Wobbly, he paced back to the study room again... Counting it, and including the time he spent watching the Quidditch World Cup, he had spent many days, so he didn't concentrate on processing the documents.

Well, anyway, the series of events that were planned and happened before are already in the past tense, and life must go on, right?Thinking of this, Young Master Lin yawned lazily, asked the house elf to bring him a cup of black coffee, and plunged into the sea of ​​documents...

……

September [-]st, the day Hogwarts started school, was a cloudy day.

Lin Xi was sitting in his usual aristocratic box in the train, looking sideways at the hazy sky outside the window, his thoughts were slightly scattered and immersed in his own thoughts, and he didn't pay much attention to De, who was chatting and playing wizard chess at the same time. Laco and Dill Mochi.

"...It's raining." Noticing the ripples made by the raindrops through the glass window of the outside world, Lin Xi realized that there was already a heavy rain in the sky.At this time, the express train to Hogwarts was moving slowly, and there was only the soft sound of two people playing chess in the carriage. Lin Xi gathered up the somewhat thin wizard robes, and folded them on his legs. The magic book that he didn't read even though it was thick, finally turned his distracted gaze back into the carriage.

"What...?" Draco made a move, and his brows frowned. Obviously, the situation on the chessboard was not satisfactory. He seemed to have heard Lin Xi's emotion just now, but he couldn't hear clearly, so he turned his head and asked casually. One sentence.

"No, it's nothing." Lin Xi leaned back, closed his eyes lightly, as if planning to take a nap, "By the way, Lucius should have told you about the events that Hogwarts will hold this year. What's there?" Any ideas?"

"You mean the Triwizard Tournament that the Ministry of Magic is going to hold again?" Dilmoch killed one of Draco's knights again. Regarding the matter of the fourth year, it seems that those people in the Ministry of Magic decided to find an excuse to distract from the fact that the Dark Lord is back, and they can do whatever they want."

Draco watched his knight die tragically, his brows twitched slightly, and he said solemnly, "It's strange, it's almost a world that hasn't been held before, it's really just to start such a dangerous game rashly. Is it to deceive people? The deep meaning in it is a bit intriguing."

"In fact, it can be said that it has not been successfully held for centuries." Dilmoch also said, and he pointed out in a casual tone, "Because of the large number of deaths and accidents, the group of wizards in the Ministry of Magic There is no ability to control the dangers of the game at all, which leads to the accident rate of the Triwizard Tournament being the highest among all school competitions. As for why the sudden thought of resuming it now... Well, it must not be too harsh on Dumbledore Are you confident, thinking that with the escort of the greatest white wizard in this world, they can sit back and relax? I have to say that if this is really the reason, then European wizard officials are really too naive."

"Hehe, as you have guessed, the water in it is very deep. However, don't pay too much attention to this competition. My dear Xiaolong, as Dicky said, this year is estimated to We have nothing to do." Lin Xi closed her eyes and said indifferently, "No matter what, the Triwizard Tournament was restarted with the approval of the Department of International Exchange and Sports of the Ministry of Magic, as well as Dumbledore. Whoever is behind the scenes is definitely not targeting us."

"Not at us?" Draco asked suspiciously.

"That's right, it's not us." Lin Xi said, with a peaceful expression on his face, like an old monk in meditation, "You have to remember, this time, the protagonist of the play is someone else..."

"As for Slytherin... it's better to put away your hands and feet and be a bystander honestly."

……

Although the news that the Triwizard Tournament will be held at Hogwarts has long been known to some upper-level pure-blood noble families, more people still don't know why, but obviously, Potter is not among them.

When Dumbledore's deep voice came from the bright, spacious and brightly lit Hogwarts Great Hall, everyone, no matter which college they were in, couldn't help but let out bursts of low cries and whispers.

Just after the annual sorting ceremony ended, Mr. Dumbledore stood up with a smile on his face, and announced the exciting good news with open arms, although he was caught by the crazy eyes who came in immediately Hammoody's indifferent and terrifying aura of no one else was restrained—the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the hideous face covered with scars and the round and round animal fake eyeballs.But it didn't take long before the uncontrollable chatter and discussions gradually became lively again.

This startling news definitely deserves to be the talk of the year, and it completely overshadows the oddity and horror of Hogwarts' newly hired Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

However, there are still people who are sober. Facing this strong man who has persecuted countless dark wizards and captured countless wizards into Azkaban, the best and craziest Auror of the British Ministry of Magic, there is no One, this lunatic who had been retired for many years actually came to teach at Hogwarts, and it was still at such a crucial point.So regarding this fact, in the eyes of those people, what can be seen is thinking and solemnity.

Only two people showed meaningful smiles at the same time.

At the same time Lin Xi saw Potter, Potter also saw Lin Xi with a smile. The two of them raised their glasses at a distance of several colleges, and drank the wine in the glass together.

With the arrival of the Triwizard Tournament, who will have the last laugh in this round?

Lin Xi and Porter smiled, and their eyes showed that they must win.

They, wait and see.
