[hp] Rescue Mr Diggory
Chapter 86 Bedtime Stories
The wizard has an evil plan. He says he's fed up with being in hiding. He wants all wizards out of hiding. A new, more powerful world led by wizards and wizards, where Muggles are like domesticated animals. A servant like an elf.
"My dear child, I need your help now, and it would be great if you could help me convince those little friends in the forest."
The wizard gave Cedric a strange smile.
Cedric shrank back and said softly, "But I don't understand..."
"Don't understand what?" The wizard's voice was full of displeasure.
"Since I was a child, you have always taught me not to be a dragon like my parents. You want me to be kind to others. You want me not to hold grudges. You said that the reason why Muggles reject us is because they don't know magic and can't understand magic. A kind of instinctive fear of the unknown. If they knew us, communicated with us, and knew that we are not all monsters who can hurt them, they would accept us...but you are doing it now, sorry I don't understand .”
"That's because I was so stupid in the past. Now I know that those Muggles will never change. People's prejudices are as stubborn as rocks. You can't convince them with reason or influence them with actions. You can only change them." Crush them one by one, make them submit to you."
"No, I still don't want to, and I'm sure you don't either."
"I thought after today's incident, you would understand." The wizard shook his head and looked very disappointed in Cedric, "Don't you understand the behavior of those Muggles when they saw your wings and dragon horns?" Are you angry?"
As soon as Cedric heard it, he immediately thought that the king he had seen was actually a wizard pretending to be a wizard. He was shocked and said, "What have you done to the real king?"
"Oh, my child, I don't think you should be so concerned about your father-killing enemy. If your father knows about it, I don't know how you should feel."
"But you said that my parents are evil dragons. They ate his daughter and retaliated with retaliation, so I don't hold grudges against him."
The wizard said slyly: "But you think about yourself. You haven't done anything bad, but the Muggles still yell at you. Admit it, they just don't change their minds."
"Not all Muggles are like this, and some people are not scared away by me. They still treat me well after they know I'm a dragon."
Cedric lowered his head, and at this moment he thought of Camelia, and the prince.
"Are you thinking about that Muggle girl you like? You like her very much, don't you?" The wizard squinted his eyes and said, "Oh, my poor little girl, don't think about it, she has already agreed to the prince's marriage proposal, In a few days it will be their wedding day."
Cedric looked at the wizard in disbelief, "It's absolutely impossible, Jamie loves me, we swore to the moon, she won't abandon me, not to mention the prince is our friend, he doesn't May betray me."
"That's a girl who loves the new and dislikes the old. Maybe she did love you before, but who knows, but after she had a prince, she began to think about how to get rid of you, so she coaxed the prince to come and play this play with her .If I were you, I'd eat them both and crunch their bones."
For a moment, the wizard's words were like the murmur of a devil, gradually breaking down Cedric's psychological defenses, trying to make him break down slowly, but in fact the wizard did. After hearing these words, Cedric groaned in pain. He closed his ears and shouted: "Impossible, you are lying to me! I don't believe that Jiami would never treat me like this..."
Facing Cedric, who was gradually losing control of his emotions, the wizard showed the patience of putting a child to sleep to comfort him.
"As your adoptive father, I really feel sorry for you, I think I should have taught you how to beware of these Muggle girls who are good at demagogy, especially the beautiful ones like this are more liars ...then he took out a small vial of potion from his robe pocket, as blue as if he had scooped up a vial of sky blue while riding on a cloud.
"Drink this potion, sleep well, and everything will be fine. My little dragon will be back soon."
Seeing that Cedric was unwilling to drink, the wizard wanted to force him to drink the potion, but no matter what he said, Cedric just refused to open his mouth.Afterwards, Cedric fought hard and knocked the wizard to the ground with his hard head with dragon horns. The glass medicine bottle shattered on the ground, making a crisp sound, followed by the wizard's cry of pain. .
When the wizard had no time to take care of him, Cedric unequivocally transformed into a dragon shape, and with a little effort, he broke free from the rope on his body. He stumbled towards the door of the basement, and he went on a rampage without direction or destination. , The whole palace was filled with screams, he flew out of the palace and came outside in a flurry of flying, but he spent too much energy on the way.
When he flew over the most lively market in the kingdom, Cedric fell straight from a high altitude due to lack of energy, and fell into a spice stall. It was smashed into pieces, and the colorful spices became a barrier that surrounded him, making him sneeze again and again.
Probably no one would have thought that a dragon would fall from the sky. The people in the market ran away with their heads in their hands in fear, shouting that the dragon is coming, everyone, run for your life. They were yelling at Cedric with every weapon they could use, and they were yelling that the dragon should come at them if it could.
Cedric turned into a human form with the little energy left, because when he was in the form of a dragon, he could not speak human language. He wanted to tell people that he was not a bad dragon, that he would not ask people for gold, silver and jewels. Won't take the princess, he won't hurt anyone, and he doesn't eat human flesh.
But no matter how hoarse he yelled, no one believed him. He made a desperate fight and turned into a human form to face everyone because he thought that by becoming them, maybe he could shorten the distance between them and make them disappear. Fearing him, but not wanting people to feel that he does not seem to be aggressive now, which also inspired their courage. At this time, they thought that maybe the dragon is not something that only dragon slayer warriors can defeat , They are the people of Dragon Slaying Kingdom, they can defeat the evil dragon by themselves.
For a while, stones, fruits and vegetables, and all kinds of things that could be found in the market were thrown at Cedric. His words of defense were quickly buried by these things, and the torches thrown He ignited the inflammables around him again, there was a crackling sound, and thick smoke began to fill the air, but what really made Cedric feel desperate was the eyes cast on him, those eyes that turned into sharp swords had long been invisible During the process, he was cut into pieces several times, and he was already dead and no longer alive.
It turned out that no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't break people's prejudices. In their eyes, dragons are born evil, not because of their instinct to fear the unknown, but because they are born to discriminate against all creatures that are different from them. And it will never change.
Cedric thought that maybe the wizard was right. He had always taught him to be kind to people in the past, making him believe that Muggles would accept them, and now he showed him the bloody reality in front of him, in order to make him more unforgettable Remember this truth and don't be stupid again in the future, because Muggles won't change.
The ruthless flames were already burning Cedric's skin, but he still looked at the people outside the flames without moving. They all raised their arms and shouted: "Kill the dragon! Kill the dragon!"
Is it the dragon that deserves to die?Cedric thought, closing his eyes in pain.
At this time, the wizard's words began to echo in his ears. The wizard said, Cedric, you have to drink that bottle of medicine. After drinking it, you will regain your strength and fly out, and then kill all those who bullied him.
It was like the devil was talking, but the muggles outside who wanted to burn him to death were not disguised devils.
Thinking of this, Cedric suddenly opened his eyes, and saw the bottle of sky blue potion he had seen in the basement floating in front of him, within reach.
The wizard's voice grew louder.
"Drink it and kill them."
But Cedric was still hesitating. If the Muggles who wanted to kill him were demons, did he have to turn himself into another demon and kill them instead?Then he would rather be burned alive. He did complain why Muggles had such a deep prejudice against their dragons, but wouldn't killing them mean becoming like them?Does he still have to despise himself who has finally become the most hated self?
The wizard is still eagerly urging, and the enthusiasm of the crowd outside to slay the dragon is also rising with the flames, but Cedric has already made a decision.He gave up struggling and stood calmly in the fire, quietly waiting for the arrival of death, he thought that it would not be too bad to die like this, at least he would no longer have to be troubled by whether he would become a dragon, He also lived out his dream, died a good dragon, never hurt anyone, they just didn't believe it, but he was content, especially when Cedric thought he was a Muggle girl Falling in love, and he believed that she hadn't betrayed him, that was enough, but he regretted that he hadn't said goodbye to her and those companions in the forest.
Seeing that the flames were about to swallow him, everything miraculously disappeared, leaving only the wizard's distorted face in anger.
"What a fool!" he swore.
At this time, Cedric was surprised to find that he had never escaped from this dark basement. It turned out that everything he saw just now was an illusion created by a wizard in order to coax him to drink the bottle of potion. Cedric had guessed in his heart that the potion might not be a good thing. Maybe it was this potion that made him lose control at the dinner table. The wizard must have secretly added some to his meal while pretending to be a king, so at that time Only then would he be unable to control himself, not only showing his true colors in public, but also losing all his sanity.
Cedric fully understood that the wizard wanted to control him!Want him to be a ruthless Muggle slaughterer.
Suddenly enlightened, Cedric glared at the wizard with red eyes. He couldn't accept that the wizard who raised him was a big devil. What made him even more uncomfortable was that the wizard had regarded him as a pawn for so many years, and everything he did was in vain. For his evil plans.
Cedric was very disappointed with the wizard. He began to doubt which of the things the wizard told him were true, which were false, or all lies. Cedric even began to doubt that his parents were really as the wizard said because He ate the princess and was beheaded by the sword of justice of the warrior. Maybe his parents are good guys, and the person who killed them was a wizard. Otherwise, how can he explain why he just happened to find that cave, and when he picked it up, it was just a dragon egg. His.
But the wizard didn't have the time to respond to Cedric's doubts. He took out his wand with a faint green light, and with just a wave, the dark basement suddenly brightened. You can see the whole picture here.
This basement is not too small. There is a very long table on one side of the table. There are many bottles and jars piled up on the table. It was a big cabinet, standing upright. The door of the cabinet was not solid wood, but a piece of glass was inlaid in the middle. Through the glass, it could be seen that there were all kinds of strange materials for making potions inside.
On the other side, there is a half-person tall rusty cage, in which a dying old man is locked up. He is curled up and lying on the bottom of the cage, screaming in pain from time to time. His hairstyle looks extremely funny. One half is long and the other is short. The long side hangs down to cover half of his face, and the short side can barely cover his scalp. At the same time, he is so dirty that people can't see the original clothes and hair on his body. s color.
"Go there and stay with that old thing." The wizard showed a ferocious smile, "It doesn't matter if you are disobedient, I won't need you soon."
As soon as the words fell, Cedric felt an invisible and powerful hand grabbed his back collar, and then threw him into the stinking iron cage.
The wizard had already left, but the old man was still lying there screaming. Cedric found out that the strong smell of blood in the basement was emanating from the old man. The old man had many wounds on his body, and there were many new wounds The wound was piled on the old wound, and blood was bleeding out. In such a poor hygienic environment, mosquitoes were breeding, and now they are flying around the old man. From all signs, it seems that the old man's condition is worrying, but right now they are all Being locked in a cage, where can I find good medicine.
After the wizard left, Cedric tried to use magic to see if he could escape from the cage, but found that the cage had already been cursed by the wizard, and the exposed skin would only need to accidentally touch the iron cage. The pole will be scalded.
Just when Cedric was at a loss, he suddenly remembered that he had read in a magic book that dragon blood had miraculous effects on healing wounds.At that moment, without any hesitation, he turned his fingers into sharp dragon claws, quickly rolled up his sleeves, cut his arm, and evenly smeared the bright red blood on the old man's wound. The wound healed miraculously, and the old man finally stopped screaming for pain, but he still looked weak, so Cedric carefully fed the old man a few mouthfuls of his blood, and after a while, the old man's pale face Become radiant.
After thanking him repeatedly, the old man told Cedric that he was the king of the Dragon Slaying Kingdom. Since the dragon that ate the princess was slaughtered, he had been imprisoned here more than ten years ago.
The king complained to Cedric that his life was not as good as that of a captive livestock these years. The wizard used him as an experimental product to try new potions and new spells on him, and shaved his hair every once in a while. , which made him maintain a yin and yang head all year round. It is common to go hungry and eat bad food and bad food. There was even a time when the wizard was in a bad mood and just for fun, he forced the king to hold both hands in front of the wizard. He knelt down to imitate the appearance of a dog, and even asked him to eat his own excrement...
It was these inhuman tortures that made the king's life worse than death every day these years, and even gave birth to the idea that it would be great if the wizard could secure the throne as soon as possible, because he would be banned for losing his use value. Kill, the king really wanted a relief, he didn't want to continue living in such a humiliating way.
"I've always wondered why he didn't kill me."
The king's voice was hoarse, and he sounded much older than his actual age. At the same time, his pronunciation was extremely unclear. He needed to listen carefully to understand what he was talking about. Maybe it was because he had been imprisoned here for too long. Without contact with outsiders, it is inevitable to lose part of the language ability.
"Because he needs your hair to make Polyjuice Potion, which is a potion of transfiguration, just add something from the person you want to change, like hair or nails, but mainly hair, and drink it Go on, and you can look like that person in an hour." Cedric said, "He has to drink a lot of Polyjuice Potion every day to maintain your appearance, so as not to show his feet, so he reached At present, it is absolutely impossible to kill you."
The old king was a little surprised when he heard this, and then he seemed to notice the two horns on top of Cedric's head when he recovered.
"So you're a dragon?"
"Yes." Cedric replied truthfully.
"Then you are such a good dragon." The king sighed, "If my poor child met a kind-hearted dragon like you back then, she would still be alive and well, and I would choose one for her." Ruyi Langjun, and held a grand wedding for them, if she hadn't encountered that misfortune back then, her child would probably be as old as you."
Cedric didn't make a sound, he was thinking about the fact that the wizard didn't lie to him, that his parents really ate the princess back then.Although he still had a little bit of luck after learning the true face of the wizard, maybe the wizard has been deceiving people all the time, but compared to his parents who are evil dragons, what Cedric can't accept is the adoptive father who raised him for many years is a badass.
"I shouldn't have trusted him in the first place." The king said regretfully, "I don't know what has happened to my queen and my children these years, and I don't know if the devil has made things difficult for them. My only son When he got up, he was a baby who couldn't even talk."
"Don't worry, they're all very well," said Cedric. "I just heard you talk about trust, so he worked for you?"
"Yes, he is the Dragon Slayer Warrior."
"You mean—it's impossible! That warrior was...yes, disappeared many years ago...he wanted to pretend to be you, so there must be a complete disappearance between you and him, there can be no The king, so the warrior became a legend.
Cedric was taken aback by the sudden thought of himself, because then the wizard was his father's enemy, and he had been brought up by his father's enemy.
"Are you all right?" the king noticed the unnatural look on Cedric's face and asked him with concern.
Cedric shook his head. He told the king that he was fine and there was no need to worry too much about him. It was just that he wanted to be alone now. He thought it would take some time for him to digest the information that had overturned his cognition for more than ten years. .
Just imagine how creepy it is to spend so long with the man who killed his father and his enemy day and night under the same roof.
After an unknown amount of time, the door to the basement opened again, but it wasn't a wizard who came in, but Camelia and an elf.
"Jamie, why are you here?" Cedric was overjoyed at first, then frowned, "You shouldn't be here, it's too dangerous, go away, and leave me alone."
"Sed, what stupid things are you talking about? It is absolutely impossible for me to leave you alone. Even if I die, I will die with you. You forgot, you promised me that you will allow me to haunt you forever of."
While the two were talking, the elf had already unlocked the iron cage. As soon as Cedric came out of the cage, Camelia stepped forward and hugged him tightly, but they didn't forget that the crisis was not over yet, so they just Hold for a while.
The king looked at them with a bewildered expression, "Great, but what should we do next? Shall we just break out like this?"
"From now on, we just need to hold hands and get out of here."
Camelia said such a thing that the king was puzzled, but he obediently did as she said, he held Cedric's hand, and Cedric went to take Camelia's hand , and Camelia's other hand was on the elf, and then the elf snapped his fingers, and in a blink of an eye they were in another place.
It was a place Cedric knew no more--the cabin in the forest.
I saw that all the little friends in the forest were in the wooden house, but they all had serious expressions, even the centaur brothers who loved to play and fight the most on weekdays. At the same time, there were many people Cedric didn't know standing in the house. There were men and women, old and young, but they were all wearing wizard robes. It was obvious that this was a group of wizards, but Cedric had never seen so many wizards appearing in the same place together.
Before Cedric could say anything, a black figure rushed up to him and hugged him tightly.
"My child, are you all right?"
It's a wizard!
Cedric was startled, and after pushing him away with all his strength, he quickly pulled Camelia behind him, and then signaled everyone around him to stay away from the wizard, but everyone didn't know what he was doing. At a loss, you look at me, and I look at you.
"My dear child, what's wrong with you? I am your adoptive father, who has taken care of you and taught you for so many years! How could you forget me." said the wizard.
"No, you're a demon! You killed my parents, and you want to rule all Muggles! I won't be fooled by you again, and I will never let your scheme succeed!" Cedric said through gritted teeth, At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind that he couldn't let the wizard hurt the person he cared about any more.
Camelia said, "Sed, what are you talking about? How could your adoptive father be..."
"I heard and saw with my own eyes that day. He said that he would make Muggles submit to his feet, and he would rule the world. Don't act, I know your plan. Be careful, everyone, he is a demon !” Cedric lost his mind a little and was quite emotional.
"Child, calm down first, and listen to me that the one you saw is not me." The wizard was extremely calm, "Everyone here can prove to me that I have been staying here these days without going anywhere. Let's find a way to save you together. Since I received the letter and heard that you had an accident, I rushed back immediately."
Cedric looked around to get confirmation, and found that everyone was nodding, which meant that the wizard was not lying.
"But..." Cedric was already confused. Could it be that he was dreaming of what he experienced these days?
"Ah, I think I understand what's going on." The wizard faced the crowd, "Can you spare some time for everyone, let me tell you a story."
The author has something to say:
There is one more chapter finale!
"My dear child, I need your help now, and it would be great if you could help me convince those little friends in the forest."
The wizard gave Cedric a strange smile.
Cedric shrank back and said softly, "But I don't understand..."
"Don't understand what?" The wizard's voice was full of displeasure.
"Since I was a child, you have always taught me not to be a dragon like my parents. You want me to be kind to others. You want me not to hold grudges. You said that the reason why Muggles reject us is because they don't know magic and can't understand magic. A kind of instinctive fear of the unknown. If they knew us, communicated with us, and knew that we are not all monsters who can hurt them, they would accept us...but you are doing it now, sorry I don't understand .”
"That's because I was so stupid in the past. Now I know that those Muggles will never change. People's prejudices are as stubborn as rocks. You can't convince them with reason or influence them with actions. You can only change them." Crush them one by one, make them submit to you."
"No, I still don't want to, and I'm sure you don't either."

The wizard had already left, but the old man was still lying there screaming. Cedric found out that the strong smell of blood in the basement was emanating from the old man. The old man had many wounds on his body, and there were many new wounds The wound was piled on the old wound, and blood was bleeding out. In such a poor hygienic environment, mosquitoes were breeding, and now they are flying around the old man. From all signs, it seems that the old man's condition is worrying, but right now they are all Being locked in a cage, where can I find good medicine.
After the wizard left, Cedric tried to use magic to see if he could escape from the cage, but found that the cage had already been cursed by the wizard, and the exposed skin would only need to accidentally touch the iron cage. The pole will be scalded.
Just when Cedric was at a loss, he suddenly remembered that he had read in a magic book that dragon blood had miraculous effects on healing wounds.At that moment, without any hesitation, he turned his fingers into sharp dragon claws, quickly rolled up his sleeves, cut his arm, and evenly smeared the bright red blood on the old man's wound. The wound healed miraculously, and the old man finally stopped screaming for pain, but he still looked weak, so Cedric carefully fed the old man a few mouthfuls of his blood, and after a while, the old man's pale face Become radiant.
After thanking him repeatedly, the old man told Cedric that he was the king of the Dragon Slaying Kingdom. Since the dragon that ate the princess was slaughtered, he had been imprisoned here more than ten years ago.
The king complained to Cedric that his life was not as good as that of a captive livestock these years. The wizard used him as an experimental product to try new potions and new spells on him, and shaved his hair every once in a while. , which made him maintain a yin and yang head all year round. It is common to go hungry and eat bad food and bad food. There was even a time when the wizard was in a bad mood and just for fun, he forced the king to hold both hands in front of the wizard. He knelt down to imitate the appearance of a dog, and even asked him to eat his own excrement...
It was these inhuman tortures that made the king's life worse than death every day these years, and even gave birth to the idea that it would be great if the wizard could secure the throne as soon as possible, because he would be banned for losing his use value. Kill, the king really wanted a relief, he didn't want to continue living in such a humiliating way.
"I've always wondered why he didn't kill me."
The king's voice was hoarse, and he sounded much older than his actual age. At the same time, his pronunciation was extremely unclear. He needed to listen carefully to understand what he was talking about. Maybe it was because he had been imprisoned here for too long. Without contact with outsiders, it is inevitable to lose part of the language ability.
"Because he needs your hair to make Polyjuice Potion, which is a potion of transfiguration, just add something from the person you want to change, like hair or nails, but mainly hair, and drink it Go on, and you can look like that person in an hour." Cedric said, "He has to drink a lot of Polyjuice Potion every day to maintain your appearance, so as not to show his feet, so he reached At present, it is absolutely impossible to kill you."
The old king was a little surprised when he heard this, and then he seemed to notice the two horns on top of Cedric's head when he recovered.
"So you're a dragon?"
"Yes." Cedric replied truthfully.
"Then you are such a good dragon." The king sighed, "If my poor child met a kind-hearted dragon like you back then, she would still be alive and well, and I would choose one for her." Ruyi Langjun, and held a grand wedding for them, if she hadn't encountered that misfortune back then, her child would probably be as old as you."
Cedric didn't make a sound, he was thinking about the fact that the wizard didn't lie to him, that his parents really ate the princess back then.Although he still had a little bit of luck after learning the true face of the wizard, maybe the wizard has been deceiving people all the time, but compared to his parents who are evil dragons, what Cedric can't accept is the adoptive father who raised him for many years is a badass.
"I shouldn't have trusted him in the first place." The king said regretfully, "I don't know what has happened to my queen and my children these years, and I don't know if the devil has made things difficult for them. My only son When he got up, he was a baby who couldn't even talk."
"Don't worry, they're all very well," said Cedric. "I just heard you talk about trust, so he worked for you?"
"Yes, he is the Dragon Slayer Warrior."
"You mean—it's impossible! That warrior was...yes, disappeared many years ago...he wanted to pretend to be you, so there must be a complete disappearance between you and him, there can be no The king, so the warrior became a legend.
Cedric was taken aback by the sudden thought of himself, because then the wizard was his father's enemy, and he had been brought up by his father's enemy.
"Are you all right?" the king noticed the unnatural look on Cedric's face and asked him with concern.
Cedric shook his head. He told the king that he was fine and there was no need to worry too much about him. It was just that he wanted to be alone now. He thought it would take some time for him to digest the information that had overturned his cognition for more than ten years. .
Just imagine how creepy it is to spend so long with the man who killed his father and his enemy day and night under the same roof.
After an unknown amount of time, the door to the basement opened again, but it wasn't a wizard who came in, but Camelia and an elf.
"Jamie, why are you here?" Cedric was overjoyed at first, then frowned, "You shouldn't be here, it's too dangerous, go away, and leave me alone."
"Sed, what stupid things are you talking about? It is absolutely impossible for me to leave you alone. Even if I die, I will die with you. You forgot, you promised me that you will allow me to haunt you forever of."
While the two were talking, the elf had already unlocked the iron cage. As soon as Cedric came out of the cage, Camelia stepped forward and hugged him tightly, but they didn't forget that the crisis was not over yet, so they just Hold for a while.
The king looked at them with a bewildered expression, "Great, but what should we do next? Shall we just break out like this?"
"From now on, we just need to hold hands and get out of here."
Camelia said such a thing that the king was puzzled, but he obediently did as she said, he held Cedric's hand, and Cedric went to take Camelia's hand , and Camelia's other hand was on the elf, and then the elf snapped his fingers, and in a blink of an eye they were in another place.
It was a place Cedric knew no more--the cabin in the forest.
I saw that all the little friends in the forest were in the wooden house, but they all had serious expressions, even the centaur brothers who loved to play and fight the most on weekdays. At the same time, there were many people Cedric didn't know standing in the house. There were men and women, old and young, but they were all wearing wizard robes. It was obvious that this was a group of wizards, but Cedric had never seen so many wizards appearing in the same place together.
Before Cedric could say anything, a black figure rushed up to him and hugged him tightly.
"My child, are you all right?"
It's a wizard!
Cedric was startled, and after pushing him away with all his strength, he quickly pulled Camelia behind him, and then signaled everyone around him to stay away from the wizard, but everyone didn't know what he was doing. At a loss, you look at me, and I look at you.
"My dear child, what's wrong with you? I am your adoptive father, who has taken care of you and taught you for so many years! How could you forget me." said the wizard.
"No, you're a demon! You killed my parents, and you want to rule all Muggles! I won't be fooled by you again, and I will never let your scheme succeed!" Cedric said through gritted teeth, At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind that he couldn't let the wizard hurt the person he cared about any more.
Camelia said, "Sed, what are you talking about? How could your adoptive father be..."
"I heard and saw with my own eyes that day. He said that he would make Muggles submit to his feet, and he would rule the world. Don't act, I know your plan. Be careful, everyone, he is a demon !” Cedric lost his mind a little and was quite emotional.
"Child, calm down first, and listen to me that the one you saw is not me." The wizard was extremely calm, "Everyone here can prove to me that I have been staying here these days without going anywhere. Let's find a way to save you together. Since I received the letter and heard that you had an accident, I rushed back immediately."
Cedric looked around to get confirmation, and found that everyone was nodding, which meant that the wizard was not lying.
"But..." Cedric was already confused. Could it be that he was dreaming of what he experienced these days?
"Ah, I think I understand what's going on." The wizard faced the crowd, "Can you spare some time for everyone, let me tell you a story."
