The next day was Saturday. Generally speaking, on weekends, students would get up very late to have breakfast.Camelia, too, had a rare sleep in, and as she went downstairs to breakfast, she met Fred, George, and Lee Jordan on the stairs, all three looking extremely excited.

"It's done," Fred whispered to her in a triumphant tone. "We just finished it."

"Aging agent?" Camelia asked.

"Smart enough! A drop each," said George, rubbing his hands happily. "We've only got a few more months to grow."

"If one of us wins, the thousand Galleons will be divided equally between three of us." Li had a very happy smile on his face.

"I don't think it will be successful," Camelia kindly reminded, "Dumbledore will definitely take this into consideration."

Fred and George firmly believed that such a trick could fool the age line outside the Goblet of Fire, and they ran down the stairs with Camelia, and Lee followed them until they reached the hall. just stopped.

There are already more than 20 people gathered there, some of them are still eating bread, they are all carefully looking at the Goblet of Fire, Harry and others are also gathered there.

"Ready?" said Fred, trembling with excitement, to the other three. "Come on, then! I'll go in first."

I saw Fred took out a parchment note from his pocket, with the words "Fred Weasley - Hogwarts" written on it.Then Fred went straight to the edge of the age line and stood there, swaying on his tiptoes, as if in a standing long jump takeoff position.Then, with every eye in the hall watching, he took a deep breath and stepped across the line.

For a split second, everyone thought that Fred had succeeded, and George must have thought so too. He shouted triumphantly, and then jumped forward following Fred.Soon, however, an unusual noise was heard, and the twins were thrown out of the coil, as if an invisible wrestler inside had thrown them both out.

When everyone came to their senses, they had already fallen painfully on the stone ground several meters away, and the same long white beards appeared on their chins.

The hall roared with laughter, and even Fred and George couldn't help laughing when they got up and saw each other's white beards.

"I warned you," said a low, amused voice, and everyone turned to see Professor Dumbledore coming out of the Great Hall.He looked at Fred and George with a twinkle in his eye: "I suggest you both go to Madam Pomfrey. She is already nursing Miss Fawcett in Ravenclaw and Sarah in Hufflepuff." Mr. Mers, and they both decided to age themselves a little. But I must compliment them, they have far less handsome beards than you."

Seeing what Dumbledore said, Fred and George immediately left for the hospital, accompanied by Lee Jordan, but he was still laughing, and everyone giggled and went into the auditorium for breakfast.

Not long after Camelia sat down, loud applause came from the hall outside.Everyone turned around in their seats to see Roger Davis enter the auditorium.

"It's done! I just put my name in." He sat next to his team members and said happily with a grin.

"Great. You know? The Hufflepuffs are talking about Digory." One of the team members said contemptuously, "But in my opinion, he probably won't want to take his handsome face. adventure."

His words drew angrily glaring glances at him from several Hufflepuffs passing their table.

"Don't say that." Davis scolded him, "No matter who is selected, it is to bring honor to our Hogwarts. Now is not the time for the divisions to compete for the House Cup and the Quidditch Cup. Everyone is one." overall."

"Boss, this is not like what you usually say." The team member said disapprovingly.

"Isn't it just to make that person happy?" The other person had already noticed that Camelia was sitting not far from their seat.

The team member who was warned by Davis turned around and said loudly to Camelia: "Hey! I said that if Roger is selected, Shafiq, you can agree to be his girlfriend. It's not a matter. Honor to Hogwarts."

Camelia just smiled slightly at this, "Come and talk to me after he is selected."

This made Davis a little angry, he punched the team member on the back hard, then looked at Camelia nervously and guiltyly, and when he found that she did not show any displeasure, she was still calm Eating her French omelette leisurely, she breathed a sigh of relief.

This also caused many girls to be dissatisfied with Camelia. They were probably thinking about the rumors that she had multiple boyfriends at the same time.

Leon seemed to have never been happy after arriving at Hogwarts. When he walked into the auditorium, he sat down next to Camelia with a displeased face, "What's going on with you and that guy?"

"It's just a friend, it's nothing." Camelia beckoned him to help pour the milk. The milk jug was a little far away from her, and she couldn't reach it when she was sitting, but she wanted to be lazy and didn't want to get up to get it.

So Leon filled the glass with milk for her casually, and then pushed it over, "Just a friend? But I heard they want you to be his girlfriend, what's going on?"

"It's more accurate to say that he is one of my rumored boyfriends, but I don't know what's going on outside now. I haven't listened to what they are saying about me for several days." Camelia said, She and Leon had been talking in French, so she wasn't worried that her nosy classmates would overhear, and there wasn't much to listen to at all.

"I think they probably think of you as the boyfriend I dated in France by now, what a bunch of idiots." Camelia glanced disapprovingly at those who pretended that they hadn't peeped at their cousins, "although I don't want to admit it, but we actually look alike, but they insist on thinking about that."

"It's rare to hear you swearing like that. I don't understand how our little moon is willing to come back here since she has had such an unhappy time at Hogwarts." Leon stared at them disdainfully. "No one in Beauxbatons would dare to talk like that, especially if they know you are my sister."

"I hate my friends here, and I have been used to it for so many years. Some things can't be tolerated." Camelia raised her eyebrows and said, "But your tone is not small, so you are the boss of yours. ?"

"Almost." Leon casually looked at his classmates who came one after another, the arrogance disappeared from his face, replaced by a friendly smile.

Beauxbaton's students' attitudes towards Leon and Fleur Delacour are simply two extremes. They seem to like the former very much, and they can be said to hate the latter. Since yesterday, Camelia has discovered that No one wanted to talk to Fleur at all, but she knew why.

Furong has the common problem of beautiful girls, she has a high spirit, often says some uncomfortable words, and deliberately shows off her sense of superiority from time to time, even though she has Veela blood, she can control some people to be fascinated by her at will, but It is true that many people, including some boys, can't stand her, but in fact, apart from this problem, she is still a good person.

"Leon, the principal asked me to tell you that we all signed up after dinner. I bet you are the warrior of our school." A boy from Beauxbatons came over and said.

"I'd rather be you than Delacour, that mean guy." A girl from Beauxbatons pouted, and when she saw Camelia next to Leon, her whole face gradually stretched out. Showing a friendly smile, "This is your cousin in England. It was too late yesterday and I didn't look carefully. She looks so beautiful. Hello."

A boy smiled and said, "Du Bois, can I invite your sister to the prom?"

"Well, I can't answer for her, you can ask her yourself." Leon said with a smile, and Camelia, who knew his temperament, sat aside, but felt that he clearly finished the sentence through gritted teeth.

Beauxbaton's classmates may not know that their favorite Leon Dubois is actually the same kind of person as Fleur Delacour, even worse than Fleur several times.

Du Bois and Delacour have been neighbors for many years, so Fleur and Leon can be said to be childhood sweethearts. In order to hide all those sharp edges, he knows how to be likable in life. This seems to be an innate skill of the Du Bois family. Like most of the family, he intends to People like him, because it can save a lot of trouble in normal times, except for the closest people, he will never easily reveal his true colors to the outside world.

Furong is more real than Leon, and never hides her thoughts. When she says she looks down, she really looks down on her from the bottom of her heart, and when she says she likes her, she really likes her. She never duplicity, which is much cuter than many people.

Everyone was seated, but they didn't see Furong for a long time. Leon said that she should still be dressing herself, and she wasted a lot of time on it every day.

When he said this, Leon had already shown his usual appearance at home. At this time, he turned his back to his Beauxbatons classmates and faced Camelia. In addition, everyone was eating quietly. Well, the students of Beauxbatons must abide by more rules than the students of Hogwarts in the school. At this time, no one looked around, let alone to see Leon.

This made Camelia couldn't help whispering to him: "Don't they all know what you are like when you are at home?"

"If you don't tell them, of course they don't know." Leon said.

"Hypocrisy." Camelia glared at him, then lowered her head and drank the milk.

"People are hypocritical animals, I don't think I have anything to be ashamed of." Leon said disapprovingly, and then he felt that Camelia was drinking slowly, so he directly put his hand on the cup to her as if he was at home She poured milk into Camelia's mouth almost in a forced gesture, and said, "Little dwarf, drink more milk to grow taller. Do you understand?"

"No personal attacks! Cough~" Camelia was choked by the milk and could only stare at Leon. It can be said that her obsession with height comes from the tall cousin in front of her. , had a hard time being suppressed by his height since he was a child.

After breakfast, Madame Maxime ordered Beauxbaton's students to line up, and they crossed the age line one by one in order, throwing their parchment slips into the blue and white flames.As each name was thrown into the fire, the flames quickly turned red and sparkled.

"I played a trick. I changed the original note while queuing, so the one I voted in was blank." Leon quickly stood beside Camelia and whispered.

"It's not like your style. I thought you were so pushy because you decided that you wanted to be a warrior, otherwise you wouldn't have come." Camelia said.

"You're right, I'm literally the only warrior out of everyone here. But I'd say only an idiot would want to go to that contest, and then run up to everyone and say, 'Look at me, I've been chosen to be a warrior , I am amazing, you all worship me!' What is this!" Leon said proudly, "I don't need it, because I have that self-confidence, and I don't need to prove my ability through competitions. I knew I was famous warrior."

"Don't put it so nicely about greed for life and fear of death." Camelia mocked.

"You don't think I'm here for the competition, do you? I didn't lie to you. I said a long time ago that I'm not interested in this competition and I don't want to participate. The purpose of my coming is to come to you with my aunt. Leon put away his hippie smile, "Jamie, you have to go back with us, to France. I've heard that your life here is not easy, and I can see that your classmates don't treat you very well." Friendly and I've only been here less than a day."

"There are quite a few people who treat me well, but I just haven't introduced you to them yet." Camelia was already frowning.

"Jamie, you haven't been good at lying since you were a child. Shall we transfer to Beauxbatons? Don't stay here anymore. People here treat you badly."

"I said I won't go back. It's useless. Don't try to persuade me. I'm really not as bad as you think." Camelia said stubbornly.

"You don't want to leave, not because you don't want to part with those friends, but because of that guy named Digory you saw last night, right? What's so good about him? Tell me about it. I really can't believe it A boy who has made you sad for so long will be sincere to you, and if he treats you well, he won't make you feel so bad."

Seeing that Camelia didn't answer, Leon had no choice but to continue talking, but this time his tone slowed down a lot, "Cami, I just think that my only sister is being bullied like this in England, and I can't swallow this breath. "

"You often bully me too." Camelia finally spoke.

"That's different. Of course my sister can only be bullied by me." Leon patted Camelia's head.

After all Beauxbaton's students had signed up, Ms. Maxim led them back to the carriage.

Camelia originally planned to go to the library to stay all day. She wanted to prepare for the OWLs exam, because in the previous time and space, she had missed a lot of things in that year, such as exams, triwizard competition Sai and parting, this time she hoped not to miss anything except parting.

When she was about to walk to the entrance of the library, Camelia suddenly remembered what Dumbledore said, and realized that she hadn't seen April all morning, so she hurried towards the school hospital.

When I arrived at the school hospital, I saw many acquaintances. The two Weasley brothers were playing cards with their friend Lee Jordan. At this time, the beards of the two brothers had not disappeared, but they were much shorter than in the morning.

There are still several students who have used aging agents lying in the school hospital. They all came after Fred and George, probably because they are not well-informed. If they knew what happened to Fred and George, they would not take risks. Give it a try.

Recently, the weather has turned cold, and the flu has become prevalent in the school again. Many people have a cold and fever, so Ms. Pomfrey has been dizzy again these days.

Camelia also saw Cormac McLaggen, who had harassed her in the arithmetic and divination class, writhing in pain on the hospital bed with his hands on his stomach. Ms. Pomfrey ordered several boys to hold his limbs so that he could Don't move so hard that you can pour the medicine into his mouth.

"He bet with someone and got a whole lot of vixen, and he will suffer this." Camelia didn't know when Cedric was standing behind her, but fortunately she was not caught by his sudden Show up to scare.

"Did you find someone to do it?" Camelia asked uncertainly.

"Who made him stop eyeing you? Of course I can't let him go so easily. The few punches Davis gave me were too light." Cedric said close to Camelia's ear, " I just want to let them know what will happen if they touch you."

"It's only now that I know that you are also full of bad water." Camelia said.

"Why use it? Who is the other person you're talking about? Why don't I know anything?" Cedric said vigilantly.

Camelia felt bad, and the big jealousy was overturned again, so she struggled out of his arms, blinked, "No one, let's go in and see April."

There are big curtains hanging around April's hospital bed, and the beard on her face has not completely disappeared. Iris and Ian are also there. Ian is trying to make April happy, and then Iris tells Ka Miria, it was April who told them to hang up the bed curtains, and she also kept her boyfriend out of the curtain because she felt ashamed to face him in the way she was now.

No matter what Stebbins said, April refused to see him, so he had no choice but to leave some instructions, and then left with the president of the female student union who came to see April.

At dinner, the Great Hall was filled to the brim with candlelight, and the Goblet of Fire had been moved, where it now stood in front of Dumbledore's empty chair on the staff table.April's chin is bald again, and she seems to have accepted her failure to sign up.

"I think anyone is fine, as long as they're not from Slytherin." April said nervously, "Or do you think Ced is more likely? If he..."

"It won't be him! He didn't sign up." Camelia held her breath, "We will know who will be the warrior soon!"

"Didn't he sign up? But I clearly saw..." Seeing Camelia put her hands together on her chest, April didn't know what she thought of, so she didn't say any more.

"What do you see?" Camelia asked curiously.

"Nothing, nothing. We'll see."

I don't know why April looked a little unnatural, but Camelia didn't think too much about it. She just thought that she might want to know who would be the warrior too much, because she was in the same mood at the moment.

She thought that the other two school warriors were Fleur Delacour and Viktor Krum, as she knew before.But if Cedric didn't sign up, besides Harry, Hogwarts would definitely produce a warrior, but she didn't know which unlucky guy would replace Cedric now.

Camelia thought it was her fault that, to pull Cedric out of death, she had pushed someone else in, but she couldn't convince herself that it would be less selfish.

These days, because of this incident, Camelia is suffering a lot, because she doesn't want anyone to sacrifice like Cedric in the previous time and space, and now it is caused by her arrival, which makes her feel even more sorry, so she Decided that no matter who the Goblet of Fire finally chose as a warrior from Hogwarts, she would provide him with all help in private, and the most important thing was to find a way to keep the warrior alive.

The Halloween dinner party seems to be taking a lot longer than usual.Perhaps because there were two consecutive days of banquets, everyone seemed to be less fond of the well-prepared and sumptuous dishes than usual.People kept looking up, with anxious expressions on every face. Many people fidgeted and stood up from time to time to see if Dumbledore had finished eating. They really wanted to know who was chosen as a warrior.

Finally, when the golden plate was restored to its original spotless state, there were many voices of discussion in the auditorium.Immediately, Dumbledore stood up, and the auditorium suddenly became silent.

Professor Karkaroff and Ms. Maxim on both sides of Dumbledore looked as nervous and expectant as everyone else.

Ludo Bagman was smiling and winking at all the students, while Mr. Crouch looked uninterested, almost bored. Camelia's mother and Mr. Crouch Looks pretty much the same, don't expect that at all.

"Okay, the Goblet of Fire is about to make a decision," said Dumbledore. "I think it will take another minute. Now listen, when our champions are announced, I want them to come to the front of the auditorium." , and then walk along the teaching staff desk, enter the next room and wait." He pointed to the door behind the teaching staff desk, "They will get our preliminary instructions there."

He took out his wand and swung it broadly.Immediately, except for the half of the candles in the jack-o-lanterns that were extinguished, the auditorium suddenly fell into a state of semi-darkness, and the light from the Goblet of Fire was a bit dazzling.

Everyone stared at the Goblet of Fire, waiting expectantly, and some people looked down at their watches from time to time.

"It's coming soon." Camelia heard April sitting next to her whisper.

The flame in the cup turned red, and a lot of sparks burst out.Then, a tongue of flame shot into the air, and a piece of charred parchment flew out from it. At this time, all the people in the auditorium held their breath.

Dumbledore caught the parchment, at which point the flames returned to blue and white.

"The champion of Durmstrang," he said clearly and emphatically, "is Viktor Krum."

Applause and cheers swept through the auditorium, and Viktor Krum stood up from the Slytherin table and walked towards Dumbledore listlessly, and then he entered the hall that Dumbledore had said earlier. Room.

Karkaroff was yelling Long live, and despite the loud applause in the auditorium, everyone could hear his voice, "I know you are destined to be a warrior!"

The applause and conversation gradually subsided.Everyone's attention was now on the goblet again, and after a few seconds the flames turned red again.The second parchment leaped out of the cup, propelled by the flames.

"The champion of Beauxbatons," said Dumbledore, "is Leon DuBois!"

Camelia couldn't believe her ears, and cast an unbelievable look at Leon, who was several places away from her, but he didn't know whether it was on purpose or because he was too excited, and didn't look at Camelia, in fact He didn't bother to look at her, either, because Beauxbaton's men kept applauding him, as if they were happier than they were champions themselves.

In such a scene, Leon did not get carried away, and still remembered to maintain his usual image, walking between the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff tables with a humble smile on his face.But Furong burst into tears, buried her head in her arms, and wept sadly. None of Beauxbaton's students went to comfort her, but turned her face to the side and snickered.

Camelia didn't bother to comfort Furong now, she had already noticed something was wrong, why did Leon replace Furong in the competition?This is different from before, but Durmstrang's warriors are still the same as before. What happened in the middle of this process caused the replacement at Beauxbatons. Is it really because she made some changes in it? Did all of this change so much?But how big will this change be?

She began to rack her brains to recall the years she had participated in. She remembered that Leon in the previous time and space had never been to Hogwarts at all, but now he just...

Ah, she remembered, she dropped out of Hogwarts soon after she had an accident at school, terrified her family, and then she went to France to relieve her illness, just because the psychiatrist It is better to change the environment.And cousin Leon missed the Triwizard Tournament in order to guard her with other family members. Originally, he didn't really want to go, so he declined Ms. Maxim who most wanted him to participate on this ground.

Now Camelia has not dropped out of Hogwarts, and Leon doesn't need to stay in France to take care of her at all, but he wants her to stay in France in the future, so he came all the way here...

In this way, among the group of warriors selected by Beauxbatons, Leon is the most capable among them, followed by Furong, and the Goblet of Fire will definitely pick out the warriors who best meet the requirements of the warriors. If Leon does not come, this Isn't the quota reserved for Hibiscus?

But Camelia still couldn't figure it out. Logically speaking, Leon couldn't lie to himself. He said that if he cast a blank parchment, it would be a blank parchment. He didn't need to lie to his cousin. She has nothing to hide.

Could it be that Dumbledore, in addition to considering that someone would use the aging agent to cheat, also considered that someone would throw a blank parchment in to pretend to be majestic?So the Goblet of Fire will automatically write the names of these people?But that doesn't make sense either.

Or is it true that Leon did not lie to her in the morning, but changed his mind and signed up without her knowing, after all, she hadn't seen her cousin for a whole afternoon, and when she saw him at night, His behavior was indeed a little abnormal, as if he was deliberately avoiding her.

Thinking of this, Camelia couldn't help but shook her head, trying to clear her head. She felt that she couldn't let herself think about it anymore. Anyway, as long as Leon was prevented from participating in the third round, he would be fine, Fu Rong Didn't there be any accidents back then?Besides, it was impossible for the Hogwarts warrior to be Cedric, so she should rest assured.

But I don't know why Camelia still couldn't completely persuade herself to calm down. April, who was sitting by the side, saw that she was acting abnormal and asked her if she was uncomfortable.

She was really uncomfortable, her chest was tight and aching, and she knew very well that it was a precursor to the onset of illness, which made Camelia have no doubt that if there was another "big surprise" next, she would be afraid. She would have had a heart attack on the spot, but she hoped it was just her thinking too much.

When Leon also entered the next room, the auditorium fell silent again, and this time there was a strong excitement that could be tasted in the silence, because it was the turn of the Hogwarts warriors next.

At this moment, the Goblet of Fire turned red again, and the tongue of flame shot high into the air, from which Dumbledore drew a third parchment.

"Hero of Hogwarts," he cried, "is Cedric Diggory!"

The cheers from the nearby table were deafening, every Hufflepuff was jumping up and down, every single one of them was screaming, stomping and clapping, and Cedric stole a peek at the Ravenclaw table before getting up , and then walked towards the room behind the faculty desk with a heavy expression.The applause for Cedric lasted a long time before Dumbledore silenced everyone and listened to him.

But Camelia couldn't hear anything, both of her ears were buzzing, and her thoughts were still stuck in the moment when Dumbledore announced that Cedric had become a Hogwarts warrior.

Camelia just felt that she had made a mistake. She must be dreaming. She confirmed with Cedric again at noon. He would not sign up. He swore to her that he would never He will deceive her, he has always kept his word when he promised her, but why...he still wants to deceive her...

She would rather Cedric fell in love with another girl and betrayed her, than he lied to herself that he didn't sign up for the Triwizard Tournament. She couldn't figure out what the charm of that competition was for Cedric to violate the relationship between them. It is agreed to go to participate, is he trying to show off?Did he want to get the reward of one thousand Galleons?Or is he just as stupid as Leon and thinks that being pretentious is destined to be the warrior?

Camelia couldn't figure it out. She wanted to rush to that room and grab Cedric to ask him about it. She wanted to grab his collar and tell this fool what would happen if he went to participate.

But she knew that she couldn't be so impulsive, if she did, Dumbledore's plan would be exposed, and she had already made up her mind not to let that fool know anything she had done for him. It was his guilt towards her that was greater than his love for her. She would rather die than want a love based on the other party's pity.

In just a few minutes, Camelia had thought through all the worst outcomes. In the end, she found that the most unacceptable thing was Cedric's deceit. She was immersed in her emotions and didn't notice The parchment with Harry Potter's name jumped out of the Goblet of Fire.The Great Hall had long been thrown into chaos by the addition of another Hogwarts warrior, but she was still thinking about Cedric, about his deceit.

"Liar," Camelia murmured, staring at the door behind the staff desk.

"Are you talking about Harry?" April looked at her in surprise.

"Harry is that kid just now? You Hogwarts are cheating!" Fleur suddenly broke into their conversation, and her English with a French accent was particularly harsh and sharp at this moment.

Afterwards, they argued about this matter. Camelia had already stopped thinking, but a voice kept echoing in her mind, like the whisper of a devil. That voice kept repeating a sentence to her, Cedric had lied to her, lied to her...

"No, Cedric Diggory is the big liar! He lied to me! He lied to me!" Camelia burst into tears and covered her face. She couldn't stand it anymore, regardless of the occasion and the situation. , so frightened that April and Fleur stopped arguing immediately.

"Camelia, are you alright?"

The voices of April and Fleur seemed to come from far away. Camelia was so heartbroken that she couldn't say anything. Her heart had been beating violently since just now, and she was about to feel suffocated. Not long after a sharp pain hit her chest, her eyes went dark, and then she lost all consciousness.
