Fire Alchemist

Through some Slytherin students whose parents worked in the Ministry of Magic, they roughly learned that four brooding female dragons were imported from Romania this time.They are the Swedish short-nosed dragon, the Chinese fireball, the Welsh green dragon, and the most ferocious Hungarian hornet.

"These people are crazy." Cho just squeezed Cedric's hand. "Oh, Seid, what if you get the Horntail?"

"Qiu, that's not necessarily true." Cedric kept comforting his girlfriend, and under such sweet comfort, he felt that he regretted it a little.He is already in the seventh grade, and he only needs to wait two more years for his girlfriend to get married after graduation. Why does he have to participate in some Triwizard Tournament at this time.However, this is just a passing thought, to win glory for Hufflepuff, this is the idea of ​​every wizard born in Hufflepuff.

At first, Anna brought Theodora to serve as Cedric's staff.Anyway, she often does homework with Theodore and the others, which is obvious to all.

Anna brought Draco over the next day.Since it is related to dragons, there is no reason to let such a person who knows dragons so well.

"Oh, Mr. Malfoy." Cedric seemed a little too cautious when facing Draco.However, everyone also understood that Cedric's father worked in the magical creature management department of the Ministry of Magic. Although he was also a pure-blooded family, he still felt a little inferior to Malfoy, a generation of pure-blood nobles.

"Speaking of dragons, he can be regarded as an expert among the students." Anna smiled and pulled Draco to sit down, "Anyway, you Slytherins are not willing to help Potter, why don't you do it for Cedric?" Reference."

Facts have proved that in Slytherin, he made suggestions and even worked as a sparring partner, with Ravenclaw supplementing on the sidelines, and then this good Hufflepuff showed his strength. From the process to the result, it was very satisfying.Cedric even excitedly gave Draco the model of the short-snouted dragon he had drawn.

"Actually, those Slytherins are cute too, aren't they?" Cho sat next to Anna. Cedric got a very good score in the first level and didn't suffer any injuries. Of course, some scratches were unavoidable. , however, is much better than Potter.

"That's because they helped your Hufflepuff prince, right?" Veronica said with a smile, while winking ambiguously at Qiu, "By the way, you are Digory at the Yule Ball." Is your partner in attendance?"

"Yes, after that game, he invited me." Qiu blushed and nodded, "What about you?"

"Poor me, no one cares about me..." Veronica wailed, and several people around laughed.

Everyone laughed, and finally felt that it was getting late, so they dispersed. Anna was at the end of the girls' team, and was stopped when she stepped up the stairs that day.

"Annabel!"

"What's the matter, Inigo?"

"I think, I think..." The other party seemed to be gathering courage, blushing, "Christmas ball, do you have a partner?"

Anna nodded, "Well, Theodore invited me a few days ago, and I have already agreed."

"Uh, that's it, okay then." Inigo seemed a little disappointed, "Good night, Annabelle!"

"Good night, Inigo." Anna didn't consider the other party's emotions. For herself, there was basically no comparison between friends who grew up together and classmates who had only been friends for a few years.

On the day of the Christmas ball, Anna chose a light champagne-colored sleeveless dress without too many decorations, while Theodore prepared it very simply. After all, they are not warriors, so there is no need to dress up in fancy dress.

"Oh, Merlin, Granger is next to Krum?" Draco rubbed his eyes involuntarily, "Am I not mistaken?"

"I didn't expect Wanshitong to look pretty after smoothing his hair!" It seemed to be complimenting others, but it didn't sound like the same thing.

"Hermione is very beautiful." Anna glared at Parkinson who was holding Draco's arm, then turned and pulled Theodore away.

"Don't mind too much." Theodore took a glass of butterbeer for Anna, "Parkinson is not in our alliance, you know, although her father escaped the punishment of the Ministry of Magic, but theoretically, he wants Closer to the Dark Lord."

"I'm just angry. They are obviously not as good as Hermione. They can't pass her every exam, and their practical skills are not as good as Hermione. Apart from a better background, what should she be proud of?"

"Okay, dear, it's no good to be angry for those irrelevant people." Theodore patted Anna on the head, and retracted after receiving a blank stare.

Anna didn't stay at the Christmas ball for long. For her, it would be much better to spend her time on research and travel than this kind of ball.Declining Theodore's offer to send her back, Anna insisted on returning to Ravenclaw's lounge alone.

Maybe I should ask Theodore to come back with me.Looking at the two people who were entangled in front of her, Anna felt very unlucky.

At this moment, Anna was hiding in a corner on the second floor. There were two people standing together more than ten meters away from her. From the voices that could be lowered by the other party, it was obvious that the two of them were not doing anything. good thing.It sounds like one of them is threatening the other.

Just as Anna was struggling, a hand was stretched out from behind her to cover her mouth, and the owner of the hand quickly pulled her away from the scene.

"Ray!" Seeing the familiar face in front of her, Anna couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "Why are you here?"

"How dare you ask, if it wasn't for me, you would have been wiped out by those two black wizards." The boy in front of Anna rolled his eyes angrily, "Why didn't you bring your little boyfriend back with you?"

"Theodore is not my boyfriend."

"Okay, no, answer my question just now." The boy waved his hand indifferently.

"He's a Slytherin. This kind of occasion will open up his social circle more, won't it?"

"Also say they're not lovers."

"Hey, you haven't told me yet, why are you here?"

"I came with Durmstrang, but I don't usually disembark. Karkaroff is a Death Eater. However, he is a coward. He was just caught in the trial more than ten years ago. , just recruited everything in one go, and even brought out Barty Crouch's son, by the way, he also brought out your potions professor."

"Uncle Cleo asked you to watch him?"

"Almost. As you know, this guy has also joined the Saints, and there are quite a few people in the organization who don't like him. If the king hadn't been imprisoned in Nurmengard back then, Karkaroff might not have been able to become a saint. The headmaster of Durmstrang." Ray's eyes showed deep sarcasm, "I don't think your Dark Defense professor is a good guy. He has a very strong Polyjuice Potion on him, and the two people just now should be them both."

"You mean, Karkaroff and Professor Moody?"

Lei nodded, "Be careful, if you get caught by that fake Moody, that person must be a Death Eater."

"I see." Anna nodded.It seems that adults cast a very wide net.

"You said, Professor Moody gave Harry some advice?" Anna asked Hermione in a low voice. The two sisters don't have much time to meet recently. Hermione is really too busy. The think tank around Harry mainly relies on Hermione.

"Yes. I think it's strange too. However, I heard from Ron that he is an old Auror who has a lot of friendship with Harry's father..."

"But...is this professor you're following strange?"

"Well, I don't think he should directly teach the three forbidden spells in class, and it's too much to cast spells on students directly as a punishment, but I have to say, he taught us a lot." Hermione Pursing his lips, he continued, "Maybe he has a bit of prejudice against Slytherin, but Professor Snape is also very harsh on Gryffindor."

"No, Min, what we're talking about is completely different." Anna sighed, "We have always suspected that this professor is not the real Alastor Moody, don't you guys find that he has compound soup on him? Does it smell like medicine?"

"Is it fake?" Hermione's eyes widened.

"Yes. Besides, it's strange that Harry was selected as a warrior out of nowhere, isn't it? Those in Slytherin thought it was a conspiracy at first." Anna lowered her head and thought for a while, "I think, you'd better It’s good to remind Harry to be careful, didn’t you say that someone released the Dark Mark at the World Cup?”

"You mean, these two things are related?"

"We... I mean my friends from Ravenclaw and Slytherin. We discussed it and think that it is very likely that it has something to do with the mysterious man himself, and that Professor Moody may also be a Death Eater. Just pretending." Anna held tightly on Hermione, who was about to explode, "Hermione, I think you just need to remind me a little bit, and you can't explain too clearly, especially to Weasley, he always can't Keep it a secret."

"Okay, I have a measure."

After the second game ended peacefully, Anna's heart became even more entangled, and the only chance came in the third game.When Anna heard from Hermione that Mr. Crouch was missing and Krum was knocked out, she became more certain of her thoughts.

"Hermione, in any case, remind Harry to be careful in the third game. I don't think the mysterious man will inexplicably sign up for Harry and do nothing. There is no abnormality in the first two levels, so obviously , he left the opportunity in the third game."

Hermione frowned, "To be honest, Harry is already nervous enough, I don't really want to add to his burden. You know..."

"Hermione, this is not to add to the burden, we must consider all the circumstances. Or you can tell Sirius and Mr. Lupine our guess."

Hermione thought for a long time, and finally nodded.

Before the last game, Qiu asked Anna again for some self-defense accessories, and repeatedly told Cedric, "If you find something is wrong, quit immediately, Ced, I don't need your great achievements, you can You are already a hero of Hogwarts. Seid, I hope you will spend the summer with me safely!"

"I will, don't worry, Qiu, come to my house to play during the summer vacation, my mother likes you very much. Maybe, you should take me to meet your parents during the summer vacation..." The Hufflepuff prince finally said on his girlfriend's forehead After a light kiss, he entered the arena.

After Ludo Bagman officially announced the rules, with a sound signal, the four players gradually entered the maze.One cannot see through the thick tree walls.No one knows what happened inside.

"I don't know how Seid is doing now." Qiu was always muttering to himself.She held Anna's hand tightly, hoping to gain strength.

Anna was also waiting nervously. She didn't know what she was waiting for, whether it was the death of the mysterious man or the resurrection of the mysterious man.

The first one to get out of the maze was Fleur. Not long after Fleur was eliminated, Krum was also carried out of the maze.After Pomfrey diagnosed the two, he concluded that both had suffered from the Imperius Curse, and Fleur had even been hit by a Cruciatus Curse.

However, after the two were out, no one was seen coming out for a long time.

"Oh, even if Seid is eliminated now..." Qiu grabbed Anna's hand tightly again.Anna could feel the pain coming from her hand, but at this critical moment, she didn't remind her friend.

After waiting for a while, two figures suddenly appeared on the field outside the maze.Everyone's spirits were lifted.

"It's Seid. Let's meet him!" Qiu excitedly jumped up from the chair, pulled Anna and ran towards the place where the two men were.

Anna stared at the figures of two people, one was kneeling, while the other was lying on the ground, an ominous premonition floated in her heart.

The two quickly ran to the lawn outside the maze, pushed aside the crowd, and approached.

What greeted them was not the victorious Hufflepuff prince, but Cedric's corpse!
