With his arms crossed, Snape took advantage of his height and the three children were making chairs, looking down at Harry and the three of them from a high position, calming down the children who were still excited about winning the game, feeling that they were being blackmailed. The three people shrouded in clouds unconsciously swallowed their saliva secretly.

There was a moment of silence, during which four people from Durmstrang walked in. Except for that Professor Paddy, the three warriors all had some scorched spots on their bodies, and Madam Pontrey immediately caught their attention when they arrived. As a key care object, Mrs. Pontrey immediately rushed to an empty chair to sit down for examination and treatment.

Viktor, who didn't understand the situation in the tent, took a peek at the three new friends who had recently met and thought they were pretty good sitting on the chair. He didn't understand why they seemed to be being lectured by the professor now when the first team had completed the task, no? Should be happy?

Harry and the others also took a peek at Viktor who came in, and then immediately lowered their heads, trying to appreciate the toes of their shoes, fascinated as if they were looking at a work of art, and dared not raise their heads again.

"It seems that even sufficient special training can't make your heads full of achnatherum splendens learn what danger is." Looking at the three children in front of him who only admired the toes of their shoes, Snape felt powerless like never before. The other teams are here and can't say anything.

This group of ignorant little bastards had no idea how frightened he felt when he saw them dismantling the iron cage just now, if Professor Flitwick hadn't used that profound elvish spell in time, In front of him should be a pile of charcoal.

"Hey, Snape is right this time." The Sirius who rushed over heard Snape's words. He was about to jump out of his heart at that time, and the arm of the moon face sitting next to him was pinched by him. bruising.Thinking of this, he felt a little embarrassed, and took a peek at Lupine who followed him.

Seeing the arrival of the official person in charge, and confirming that the three children are complete, Snape let go, "The dog godfather took your pup, and you also take your little peacock whose brain is full of beauty potions. Walk."

Snape asked Mrs. Pontrey's children in a low voice, Rogers, who was confirmed to be uninjured, ignored the reactions of Lucius and Sirius who were innocently trained, and did not look at the three children again. He left without looking back.Even though Snape wasn't wearing his robes with fluttering flaps today, all the curious students who looked over here could see black waves billowing, which were black waves formed by the materialization of anger.

Snape didn't stay to listen to the scoring results, he and Rutgers turned a corner, left the competition site, and walked back to the castle.In the castle, everyone was at the game site, and the castle was quiet, except for the occasional ghosts passing through the walls making small noises.

"Severus, wait, walk slowly." Rogers looked at Snape who was still walking briskly after entering the castle, and reluctantly followed his speed to the cellar.With his familiarity with his lover, this shouldn't make Severus so angry. Did something happen during the match that he didn't notice?

Snape, who was walking quickly, approached Rogers, and instead of holding Rogers' hand as usual, he grabbed his arm and whispered in his ear: "Go back to the cellar."

This made Rogers feel that something was wrong, he cooperated with Snape to go downstairs at a very fast speed, through the winding corridors, and returned to the Snake King's territory, at this time Snape slowed down slightly, He took Rogers' hand and walked slowly back to the office.

Back in the office, Rutgers habitually lit the fire in the fireplace, Biscuit knew that the professors came back and quietly served warm tea.When Rogers lit the fireplace and turned back, Snape was sitting in his exclusive seat, holding a cup of tea, frowning in deep thought.Rogers naturally sat next to Snape, and took a sip of the hot tea that was smoking.

"Did something happen at the match, Severus?" Rutgers asked.

Snape who was called turned his head to look at Rogers, his expression was serious and a little angry, "Someone tampered with the iron cage, the iron chain shouldn't be undone so easily." This time they all expected There is no danger, I don't know if it is aimed at Harry and the others, or at all the players.

"How?" Rutgers was puzzled, how did Snape find out about the situation, he watched Harry and the others all the way, and at the same time guarded against everyone behind him to avoid emergencies, but everything was normal the whole time.

Snape recalled the whole process of the game just now, and thought of Durmstrang's team that entered the tent later, and said: "It should have been done in advance, this is my guess, and the final result is that Lucius sent someone to take it tonight. The three iron cages on the field can only be found out. The injuries on Durmstrang's body may also have something to do with the iron cages. That Paddy may also be able to see the situation, but he concealed it very well. "

Rutgers and Snape stayed in the dormitory until late at night after dinner. They came to the principal's office through the fireplace, and as expected saw Lucius, Sirius, Lupine and even Professor McGonagall, Flitwick The three professors, Professor and Professor Sprout, also gathered here, but the owner was missing.Nodding to greet everyone in the room, the two chose a bench and sat together, drinking the fragrant hot tea served by the house elf.

With a snap, Dumbledore and his phoenix Fawkes appeared in front of everyone in the room. Fawkes spread his wings and flew back to its sycamore tree, folded his wings and closed his eyes for a rest.Dumbledore took off his rare jet-black robes and hung them on a hanger, and sat in his place as they waited for him to begin to get into the real purpose of being together tonight.

"The iron chains of the three iron cages have been tampered with. The one on Harry's side is the most serious. Otherwise, the two children would not have taken down the iron cage so easily." Sighing, Dumbledore Lido reported the results of his own inspection.

An opening statement has already made everyone present fall into silence, unable to answer.

After a long time, Snape's low and hoarse voice sounded, "They are drawing lots. Harry and the others have the same chance of drawing the Norwegian Ridgeback as the other two teams."

"The intention of the manipulator is to warn, but it also means to destroy one of the teams." Lucius followed Snape's words, "It's not like what that person would do, whether it was before or now. status."

"Maybe he's even crazier? I should have taken Harry away in the first place." Sirius patted the armrest of the chair excitedly. After watching the whole game today, Sirius regretted not taking Harry out of the UK before the semester started.He was lying in St. Gormont at that time, and when he received the news from Dumbledore that the Triwizard Tournament would be held, Sirius had the idea of ​​escaping from St. Gormont and taking Harry away from England.

Lucius was very dissatisfied with Sirius' complaint. His godson was in danger, but his own son was also in danger. "You are in charge of the surveillance work. Have you found any traces of their contact with people in the magic world? Why can someone Targeting children at Hogwarts over and over again." Lucius' white hand holding the cane showed blue veins, if his wand was not hidden very hard inside the cane, he should have taken it at this time The stick broke.

"They're very cunning, they've been hiding in the house." Sirius put his head in his hands and kept torturing his half-length curly hair, "Damn it! Damn it!"

"Calm down, Sirius." Lupine patted Sirius on the shoulder to calm his emotions. After spending ten years in Azkaban, some psychological changes cannot be improved and adjusted so quickly.Lupine thought about it carefully, and said: "Is it possible that some of these things were not done by the mysterious man's current subordinates, but by his former subordinates. The Triwizard Tournament has been a major event in the magic world for decades. It is a grand event, and someone has other ideas to get benefits from it..."

"It is true that there are still some who believe that the Dark Lord will return, perhaps wanting to prove to them that their master who hides somewhere knows their loyalty. If that is the case, we are dealing with two lunatics in the dark." Snape looked up looked at Lupine, with a rare sign of agreement.

"Oh, no! I will never allow those who come to Hogwarts to hurt the students! Let me play in the next game, no matter which side it is, come here!" Professor Sprout waved his hands excitedly, After uttering the declaration, he covered his chest to calm down.She also found something wrong in this game. She came to the principal's office together with Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick tonight. It happened that the three of them met Lupine and Sirius who also came to look for Dumbledore. People said a lot of things, about the Dark Lord's hiding, the Dark Lord's intrusion into Azkaban, and the subsequent arrival of Lucius, which also made them understand more about the cooperation between the Order of the Phoenix and the M organization.

"This happened in the first game. It's hard to guess whether they will continue to attack in the next game. Sirius, you will continue to monitor the actions there. Minerva has worked hard on you in the school, and pay attention to Hogwarts." Everyone in the game, hope to find out who is doing it before the second game. As for the second game, it is suitable for Pomona or Severus to play. I just received the news that the venue is the bottom of the black lake Next, the content hint is in that golden egg, and this one needs to be guessed with the children." Dumbledore did not expect things to turn out like this, he has been busy with Horcruxes recently, and the venue for the competition The arrangement was all handled by the Ministry of Magic and Minerva, but it was unexpected that people could take advantage of it.

"I will check more carefully, and this will never happen again." Professor McGonagall's tone contained an uncontrollable anger. I believe that this incident touched Professor McGonagall's scales.

Dumbledore was very relieved about Professor McGonagall's work, and he continued to say the next thing: "Well, besides these things, there is one more thing we need to pay more attention to."

Sirius spat out hesitantly: "Is there a Christmas ball?" He didn't understand what could happen to such a ball, the Sirius ball of noble origin was just a common thing.

The author has something to say: I was called out for dinner by my friends early this morning, and I just came home now, tired and dizzy...
