Chapter 4 Your Wand, My Chopsticks (3)

The gold plate on the dining table was finally cleaned and restored to a spotless spot.Dumbledore stood up, and the noisy voice suddenly stopped, and everyone shut their mouths and stretched their necks to wait for the final result.

"It's about time." Dumbledore said, "Students whose names have been called will come to the front of the hall. The first task is waiting for you in the next room."

He took out his wand, and all the candles in the hall were extinguished, only the blue-white flame glowing in the Goblet of Fire.

The flames in the Goblet of Fire suddenly turned red again, and a piece of charred parchment flew out of the Goblet of Fire. Dumbledore grabbed the parchment and stretched out his hand to unfold it.

Everyone waited with bated breath for the result.

"The contestant representing Beauxbatons," announced Dumbledore, "is Fleur Delacour."

Fleur Delacour, who was of Veela blood, swaggered away from Ravenclaw's table with her satin-like long golden hair.

"Oh, they seem very disappointed." Hermione said, looking at the other girls in Beauxbatons.Several girls were already crying softly.

As the Goblet of Fire turned red again, the flames pushed out a second parchment.Everyone's attention turned to who the next contestant was.

"The contestant representing German Shepherd Strong is," Dumbledore's voice was clear and powerful, "Albert Lu Black."

"Blake, I knew you could." Professor Karkaroff applauded happily.

"No, why not Cruise." Ron yelled as if he hadn't chosen.Many people at Hogwarts think so too.After all, Victor is more famous.

Lu Boyan didn't care about these remarks, he stood up and hugged Viktor, rubbed Draco's hair, and quickly left from the hall to the next door.

After being noisy for a while, the hall became silent again.Because the next ones will be Hogwarts students.

The flames of the Goblet of Fire turned red again, and the flames rolled high.Dumbledore took the third parchment that flew out of the Goblet of Fire.

"Representing Hogwarts," he said aloud, "is Cedric Diggory."

"No!" wailed from across the Gryffindor table, but no one cared except them, and the shouts from the Hufflepuffs next door were even louder.

The Hufflepuffs jumped up one by one, screaming and banging tables to celebrate the Hufflepuff champions.Cedric smiled and passed between them, making his way to the next room.The applause for Cedric lasted for a long time.

It was a while before everyone heard Dumbledore's voice.

"Now, we have selected three players." Dumbledore smiled, "I believe that all the players will go all out for this competition, and the remaining students will cheer for them wholeheartedly. Finally, I hope... "

Dumbledore's voice stopped, and everyone saw the reason at a glance.

The Goblet of Fire turned red again, and a piece of parchment flew out of the cup. Dumbledore reached out to catch it with an unclear expression.

He stared deeply at the parchment, cleared his throat and said the name on the parchment, "Harry Potter."

Harry just sat there, dreaming.Everyone in the hall turned to look at him.There was no applause, no cheering, only the noise of doubts in the hall.

At the top table, Professor McGonagall stood up, walked across the staff table, and said something to Dumbledore hurriedly, Dumbledore frowned.

"I didn't put it in, you know." Harry turned to look at Hermione and Ron, "I've been with Ron at Madam Pomfrey's today."

The two of them also looked at him blankly.

"Harry Potter," Dumbledore called, standing up, "Harry, please come here."

"Go, Professor Dumbledore is calling you." Hermione looked at him worriedly, "It will be fine."

Harry stood up and walked sleepwalking through the buzzing crowd to the top table.

"Go, Harry." Dumbledore said seriously, "Go to the next room."

Harry could only nod indiscriminately, and staggered to the next room.

There was a fireplace in the room, and he saw the three contestants talking together. The black-haired Black sitting in the middle seemed to have made some joke, and both Sedikeri and Furong laughed out loud.

"What's wrong?" Lu Boyan heard the door knock and saw Harry standing outside the door.

"Is the professor looking for us?" Fleur stood up and asked suspiciously, she thought Harry was sent to deliver a message.

"No...no." Harry was so embarrassed, was it rare for him to say that he was also a contestant?He could only stand there helplessly speechless.

"Sit down." Lu Boyan led Harry to the sofa by the fireplace, "Speak slowly if you have something to do."

At this time, there was a rush of footsteps outside the house, and the five judges and the deans of the four Hogwarts houses all walked in.

"Gentlemen and ladies," Mr. Ludo Badman entered, "this is very unusual. Allow me to introduce—this year we will have four contestants."

Lu Boyan didn't think there was anything wrong, but the other contestants didn't think so.

Fu Rong said loudly, "Is this a joke? He is so small, how could it be possible?" Sedi Keli was also full of doubts.

"It's not a joke," Mr. Badman explained, "his name just popped out of the Goblet of Fire. But it's a rule...you know—"

"Ms. Olim!" Fleur looked at her beloved principal in disbelief, "They can't let a little boy participate in this competition."

"I think I need an explanation." Ms. Orim frowned and looked around at several judges.

"Indeed." Professor Karkaroff mocked, "I didn't know there was a rule that the host can have two contestants."

"It's not fair, Dumbledore." Ms. Olim said with a stern expression.

"This is obviously related to Potter. Maybe he used a superb magic trick to trick the Goblet of Fire." Snape looked unclear, and his voice was full of malice, "Don't blame Dumbledore."

"Okay, Severus." Dumbledore interrupted Snape, who turned his head to look Harry in the eyes and asked, "Harry, tell me if you put your name in the Goblet of Fire. "

"No." Harry said firmly, as if warmed by a fireplace.

But everyone obviously didn't believe it.

"It's impossible for him to cross the age line of Dumbledore." Professor McGonagall explained for him, "I'm sure we all know—"

"Then what if Dumbledore is mistaken?" Ms. Olim shrugged.

"Of course, it's also possible." Dumbledore said politely.

"Dumbledore can't be mistaken," cried Professor McGonagall sharply.

"Mr. Crouch, Mr. Badman, what do you think?" Karkaroff looked at the two silent judges by the fireplace with flickering eyes, "You are fair, I believe you will give us a satisfactory answer .”

Mr. Badman wiped the sweat off his face with a handkerchief, and Mr. Badman looked aside without making a sound.The latter's face was gloomy, and he was about to speak after seeing the dispute.

"Excuse me, gentlemen and ladies." Lu Boyan suddenly said.After listening to the conversation of several people for a while, Lu Boyan probably understood what happened, and he felt it was time to speak.

[Gouzi, do you really want to be skinned? ] The system is helpless.

[The protagonist has to appear at this time to receive the younger brother. ] Lu Boyan has already regarded Harry as his younger brother's back-up member.

Lu Boyan stood in the middle and bowed politely, "I am honored to be selected as one of the contestants in this Triwizard Tournament. I think I should have a certain right to speak about the four contestants this time."

"Blake, what are you doing?" Professor Karkaroff stopped his student.

"It's okay, let him talk." Dumbledore said gently, "You are one of the parties involved, of course you have the right to speak, child."

Everyone in the room looked at Lu Boyan, wondering what he was going to say.

"I think Mr. Harry Potter can be the No.4 player. There is only one champion in the competition, and everyone else is a competitor except myself." Lu Boyan said in a strong voice, "I think I am very good, and frankly , I don't think Mr. Harry Potter can compare to me."

Hearing this, Harry didn't know whether to thank Lu Boyan for speaking up for him, or to be ashamed that he said that he was not as good as him.

"I have this confidence, and I believe the other two contestants will also have this confidence." Lu Boyan smiled at Cedric and Fu Rong, "What's more, we are three years older than Mr. Harry Potter, and I still feel that I Bullying him."

"Finally, Principal Karkaroff." Lu Boyan said with firm eyes, "I believe that the Tri-Power Cup will definitely belong to Demu Strong in the end."

"Well, since you are so confident." Although Professor Karkaroff's face was flat, the pride in his eyes could not be hidden, "Then listen to you."

"I really don't know what to say." Dumbledore clapped his hands. "You are excellent, boy."

Cedric stepped forward as if infected, "I also agree with Harry to be the No.4 contestant."

Although Furong was a little unwilling, she nodded in agreement.

Mr. Crouch spoke, "Then we abide by the rules. Anyone whose name comes out of the Goblet of Fire must participate in the competition. Then, there will be four contestants in this Triwizard Tournament."

Others have no objection.

"So let's start?" Mr. Badman rubbed his hands, looked at everyone with a smile, "Is it time to give instructions to the players? Batty, are you interested in helping?"

"The first task is courage," Mr. Crouch said flatly, "We won't tell you what it is. In the face of the unknown, warriors must have the courage to accept it."

"The first task will be carried out on November 24th. You cannot accept any help from the teacher during the competition. The contestants will complete the first task with the help of a magic wand, and you will be notified of the second task after the end. Since your energy is exhausted In the competition, you can be exempted from the test at the end of the term."

Mr. Crouch turned to look at Dumbledore, "That's all, Albus."

"I think so, Barty." Dumbledore nodded. "Then children, it's time for you to go back. I believe you will go back to celebrate with your classmates."

The four contestants walked out first, and the remaining teachers were discussing the follow-up schedule.

"Thank you for speaking for me just now." Harry said helplessly.

"It's nothing." Lu Boyan shook his head.

"You are more generous than us." Cedric nodded to Lu Boyan, "You are so outstanding."

Furong snorted unwillingly, but didn't speak.

"Okay, then I accept." Lu Boyan smiled and bowed to them, "Then, good night, gentlemen and ladies."

He turned and walked towards the lake.

[The pretending just now was very successful, my dog. ] The system joked.

[Hi, good talk good talk. ] Lu Boyan said with a smile, [You see, they all think that I am excellent. ]

[It's not that you are outstanding, it's that you are very beautiful. ] The system said with a poisonous tongue, [You are the only one out there. ]

[Thank you for the compliment. ] Lu Boyan accepted it without hesitation.

The system suddenly felt a little tired.

The author has something to say:

Harry: Lu is such a good man, he speaks for me!

Draco was very wronged, I don't put on hair gel for you, can't I compare to Harry?Why don't you speak for me.

Lu Boyan: I am not, I have no Harry nonsense.
