The arrival of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang set off a small climax for Hogwarts.Almost everyone was talking about Krum, and Fleur, the Beauxbaton girl with Veela blood.

Lida was not interested in these lively topics. She sat lazily on the window sill in the corridor, with a book called "Structure of the Magic Circle in the Deformed Area" on one leg, and the other leg drooped naturally, shaking gently by the window sill .She was waiting for her friends, who were going to catch the tail of summer and go for a good swim in the Black Lake.

The Goldstein family is famous for being rich in beauties, maybe Lida doesn't know it, but her aunt Queenie and her mother Beverly are both famous beauties, and Lida's appearance lives up to the surname.She has perfectly inherited the good genes of her parents since she was a child. When she was a child, she was as cute as a doll.

Now 16-year-old Lida is gradually growing. She has a pair of flowing almond eyes, a delicate and fair face, full and sexy lips, and even her slender and straight nose seems to be full of aura.

At this time, she was sitting on the window sill and concentrating on reading a book. The sun shone on her face, making her skin more crystal clear and her side face more delicate and beautiful.She didn't realize that the number of teenagers passing by her gradually increased, and several of them passed by several times.

Several girls were whispering among each other not far away, and a girl with brown curly hair said: "For the first time, I don't think Lida Goldstein is so annoying! I think she is much prettier than Fleur Delacour!" Another The girl with freckles said: "That's right, whoever said that girls from Beauxbatons are better-looking than girls from Hogwarts, I don't think so!" When passing by Lida, he even gave her a friendly smile, although Lida didn't see it.

Hermione walked out into the corridor angrily holding her book. She just came out of the library, and she didn't know where to go now.Seeing Lida sitting by the corridor, she simply walked over to her, propped herself up on the window sill, and said angrily, "Boys are so annoying!" Seeing that it was her, Lida removed the silent spell beside her, and asked: " What did you say?" Hermione said angrily, "I mean Ron and Harry, they look at Beauxbaton girls like idiots!"

"Oh!" Lida smiled knowingly, "The children have grown up!" She reached out and patted Hermione on the shoulder, and said, "Don't be angry with them, just find a boyfriend!" Hermione blushed, she was a little embarrassed, but she insisted on an expression of indifference, and said, "I don't want to find a boyfriend! They are so stupid!"

Lida opened her mouth, and just about to say something, she saw her friends approaching from a distance.She pulled Hermione off the window sill and said, "Don't think about it, go play with the big sisters!" After finishing speaking, she pulled her to walk in the direction of her friends.

Angelina and Katie knew Hermione and said hello to her.Lida pointed to the other two girls, and introduced to Hermione: "This is Rose Quick from Ravenclaw, and Kara Adams, we are also very good friends." She whispered in Hermione's ear Said: "They helped me borrow a lot of books from Ravenclaw's private library."

Hermione smiled shyly, and greeted them: "Hey, I'm Hermione Granger." Cara nodded reservedly, and Rose smiled at her friendly, and said, "We know you. It's number one in your grade." Hermione looked even more embarrassed.

Lida wrapped her arms around her neck and called everyone to go to Stone Mountain.Hermione asked them curiously: "What are you going to do?" Rose said: "Swim at the secret base." Hermione asked: "Secret base? Swim?" Angelina smiled and said: "It is in the dark For swimming in the lake, we found a cliff behind the castle, which is suitable for diving, and it is very convenient to climb to the shore."

Hermione was shocked by their boldness, and said: "What? Are you crazy? What if you are attacked by mermaids and giant octopuses?" Kara said: "Don't worry, mermaids will not kill students. A broken arm and a broken leg." Katie said, "As for the giant octopus... it shouldn't hurt the students, we've never gone swimming when it's awake." Hermione looked even more shocked and paler. up.

Lida quickly added: "It's okay, don't be afraid! Look at Dennis Creevey, the little boy who just entered school this year, accidentally fell into it while crossing the lake, and it was the giant octopus that rescued him. We have Reason to believe the giant octopus is a good boy!"

Rose looked at them teasing Hermione with a smile, and comforted her and said, "Don't be afraid, the mermaid and the giant octopus have never attacked any student at Hogwarts! Besides, the water we went to is in the The edge, not the territory of the mermaids; now Durmstrang's students live on the lake, and Dumbledore has put a restraining spell on the octopus."

Lida shook her head regretfully, and said, "It's a pity, although it's a bit ugly, it's actually quite obedient!"

Hermione: "..."

While speaking, several people had already climbed over the stone mountain.After arriving at the destination, the girls began to take off their robes, revealing their beautiful swimsuits, and jumped into the water one after another. In the blink of an eye, only Hermione and Lida were still standing on the shore.

Lida urged her: "Take off your robe, I'll make you into a beautiful swimsuit." Hermione refused at first, but their hearty laughter was too attractive.She couldn't resist taking off her robe, leaving only a set of linings.

Lida touched her chin and looked at her: "I can't tell, you have a really good figure!" Hermione hugged herself with both hands vigilantly.Lida smiled and pulled her hands away, and pointed at her with her magic wand. The white lining on Hermione's body turned into a pink polka dot one-piece swimsuit, and the hem was still in the shape of a cute tutu skirt. .Lida put her face in her hands and said, "It's so cute! Do you like it?" Hermione nodded and touched the swimsuit fondly.Lida winked at her, "As long as you like it! Go down!" After finishing speaking, she turned around and jumped into the black lake like a fish.

Hermione played wildly with them all afternoon, from being reserved to having fun.The few people finally got tired of playing and climbed ashore to bask in the sun, lying on the rocks and chatting.Hermione said of the house elf rights promotion association she was running recently, "I can't believe it! The living environment of house elves is so bad, how can no one pay attention to this problem!"

A few people were relatively silent, they all knew about Hermione's spew, but obviously everyone thought it was a bad idea.Only Kara, who is also of Muggle origin, understood her: "I understand how you feel Hermione. If you put it in the Muggle world, this is a very serious issue of racial discrimination!" Hermione nodded enthusiastically. Hogwarts found someone who understood her.Kara added: "In fact, there are many discrimination problems in the wizarding world, including so-called pure-blood wizards against half-blood wizards, Muggles and Squibs, and wizards against magical creatures. Like centaurs, they are smart and knowledgeable, but few There would be a wizard to respect a centaur."

Hermione said: "That's it! There is so much discrimination in the wizarding world!"

However, Kara did not agree with Hermione's method of seeking rights and interests for the house elves. She said: "This idea is good, but I don't think this way will work, at least it is a difficult way!" Convinced, Carla continued: "Think about it, even with the support of so many people, Martin Luther King Jr.'s civil rights path was very difficult, not to mention that the house elves don't understand your thoughts at all." She said Hermione was a little speechless, but she still insisted: "But someone has to try to make them feel better!"

Finally, Robbie couldn't help interjecting, and asked, "Excuse me, I want to ask what are you guys talking about? Who is Martin Luther King?" Lida and the others looked at them in bewilderment.So, Kara told these girls who grew up in the wizarding world about the great deeds of Martin Luther King.

Lida suddenly realized, she said, "I think I know what you mean," she looked at Hermione, and said with admiration, "I understand how you want to liberate the house elves! You are a great person, Hermione." Min." Hermione was a little embarrassed, but Lida continued: "But I also think Kara is right, your road won't work!" She said sharply: "The civil rights movement you talk about is based on oppression. People realized that they wanted freedom, they wanted equality, they wanted to liberate nature! So they started the civil rights movement and fought for it.

But house-elves, their nature is work, not freedom. Hermione was about to argue with her, but was interrupted by Lida: "Listen to me, your idea is right, but your approach is wrong!"Your approach is too blunt, what you want to fight for is not the rewards and freedom of the house-elves, but the ideas of wizards! "She reached out and tapped her temple.

Hermione looked at her half-understood, and Lida simply sat up and said to her: "The reason why the living conditions of house-elves are so bad is because wizards don't respect their ideas, and all wizards think they are superior, because We have lived in such an environment since we were young. Our parents and grandparents all lived in such an environment. No one has ever stood up and told us what is the correct attitude towards non-wizard intelligent creatures.

When wizards have enough respect for house elves, their living environment will really improve!But this is a way too hard, and the wizards' thinking is deeply ingrained. "

The atmosphere was a little silent, Hermione took out her spew badge and wondered what she was thinking.Rose said to her: "I think if you want to change something, you can talk to Dumbledore. He is the only wizard I have ever seen who truly treats all intelligent creatures equally." Then, she With another gentle smile, he said, "If you really want to do something, and that path works, I'll support you!"

Carla also said: "Me too!" Lida also said: "A world where everyone can get enough respect is great! We should all be obliged to this purpose." Angelina and Katie also nodded in agreement, they said, Although I don't quite understand what you are talking about, but we are friends, of course we will support you!

Hermione finally raised her smiling face, regained that confident look, and thanked everyone one by one.

Since chatting with Lida and the others that day, Hermione has never pestered others to join the spew. She seems to be doing something new, and she is too busy to see anyone every day.

In the auditorium at night, Dumbledore announced the start of registration for the Triwizard Contest and told everyone the conditions for the competition.Lida saw that Fred's eyes were shining, and he said with certainty: "Age boundary! It's easy to do, a bottle of aging agent can fool you!" Lida nodded with her lips pursed, trying not to let herself smile Too obvious.

The next day, Fred and George ran excitedly to the hall with the aging agent, Lida followed behind them, planning to watch a good show.Hermione stood up and reminded them: "I don't think this will work!" She looked at Lida who was slowly following, and said, "You don't think this stupid method is useful, do you?" Lida showed her a mischievous look. Fred smiled and said, "I think you can try it, it's fun!" Fred smiled and kissed her face, and said, "Good luck to your boyfriend! If you win the prize, what do you want?" What can I buy for you!" Lida pretended to look at him seriously and said, "Really? I've wanted stonefish oil for a long time, but unfortunately it's too expensive! If you win the Goblet of Fire, those Galleons are just enough to buy One bottle!"

Fred: "..." He winked and made a frightened expression, which made Lida laugh out loud.

Frey and George drank the aging potion and jumped into the age line smoothly. Everyone held their breath and almost thought they had succeeded, but when they threw their names into the Goblet of Fire, they were thrown out of the circle by magic. He also grew a white beard, and everyone couldn't help laughing.

When Lida accompanied Fred and George brothers came back from the school hospital, Angelina ran over triumphantly to show them that she had successfully put her name in it, which made the twins feel resentful. Can materialize.

However, they also quickly accepted the fact that their plan had failed, and opened a bet in Gryffindor, betting on who in Hogwarts would be elected as a warrior.Lida took out a Galleon, put it in front of them, and said, "I bet on Cedric Diggory of Hufflepuff!"

Fred asked sourly: "Why?" Lida said: "He is excellent! A Hufflepuff prefect, he is handsome, good at studies, excellent in sports, and I heard he has a good temperament." Listen to her Complimenting another boy like this made Fred even more sour. He put Lida's Galleon back into the pocket of her robe and said, "You are not allowed to bet on him!" Lida laughed even more happily, and she I like seeing Fred jealous of her the most, it's so cute!

As Lida expected, the hero of Hogwarts was indeed Cedric. Before Lida and Fred could show off their good fortune, Dumbledore announced that Harry Potter became the fourth a warrior.

Lida was so frightened that she almost knocked on the long table. Her dear little brother Harry Potter was chosen to participate in such a dangerous competition? !

At the long table in Gryffindor, everyone was discussing how Harry put his name in it, and only Lida seemed particularly anxious.Fred came to her side to comfort her and said: "Don't be nervous! Dumbledore will figure out a way!" George also said: "Yeah, Dumbledore is here! But it would be cool if Harry also participated Hearing their conversation, Hermione also interjected, "This is no fun! Harry is still so young, he might die on the field!" Lida shuddered when she heard that, Fred De quickly hugged her.She said, "No! Harry can't compete!"

They were waiting for Harry in the Gryffindor common room, and indeed everyone was waiting for him.They waited for Harry to come back to celebrate him, wondering how the hell he had put his name in there.

After Harry came back, he was pulled into the crowd by the lion cubs, cheering and blessing.Lida sat calmly outside the crowd, watching them scream and ask again and again, and also saw Harry's reluctant expression.She went over and pulled Harry out of the crowd, while Fred and George shielded them from the enthusiastic cubs.

Lida asked seriously: "What did Dumbledore say? Can you skip the competition?"

Harry only felt touched in his heart. Finally, one person realized that he didn't want to participate in the competition. He said dejectedly: "Dumbledore only told us that the first competition is about guts."

"What?" Lida screamed. "Does he mean you're going to compete?" Harry nodded, looking even more upset.

Lida forced a deep breath, hugged Harry, and patted his back to comfort him.Harry felt a little embarrassed, but relieved, and hugged her too.They were separated by Fred after a short hug. He said seriously to Lida: "The child will grow up, and he will be embarrassed if you are so close to him!" Harry: No, no, don't talk nonsense !

Then, Fred turned to Harry again, raised his hands, and said, "Come on, big brother gives you a hug!" Harry said disgustedly, I'd better go to sleep.

Early the next morning, Lida went to Dumbledore. She asked to take back Harry's status as a warrior, but Dumbledore told her that it was absolutely impossible. As a result, Harry had to participate, Lida sighed deeply.Dumbledore blinked his blue eyes and said to her, "But I think you can keep Harry safe, Leda, I remember you have studied magic circles for a long time."

Lida came out of the principal's office with a solemn expression, then quickly walked to the auditorium, and pulled out Fred and George who were having breakfast at the long table.Fred was holding a pumpkin pie in his hand, while George was biting a small round bun. They had never seen such a serious expression on Lida's face.

Fred asked, "Did you go to Dumbledore?" Lida nodded and told them what Dumbledore said.Then she said, "Fred, George! I want you guys to figure out the first game for me!" George exclaimed, "You think so highly of us!"

Lida said: "I believe you, with those strange ways in your mind, you will do it!" She looked at Fred with a begging look in her eyes, and Fred couldn't stand her eyes at all, "We will help you!" She breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward and hugged Fred's waist, "Thank you!" Fred kissed her on the forehead, "Don't tell me thank you, I am Your boyfriend!" George on the side gave them a blank look, can't Xiu Enai go further?

After explaining the twins, Lida plunged into the eighth-floor Room of Requirement, where she had to build something that would protect Harry before the first game.

It took her a few days to paint complex magic on an essence stone the size of a fingernail. That essence stone was found by Aunt Queenie's brother-in-law from Dragon Island, and it is said to have very powerful magic power.Lida thought, if these magic powers were injected into the magic circle, the protection effect would be better.

Meanwhile, Fred and George bring her the news she wants, and the first game is a dragon!Lida became even more nervous. The hand she drew the magic circle was shaking all the time, and Fred had to hold it firmly.

She took a deep breath, put a final touch on the Essence Stone, rubbed her tired eyes, and said to Fred and George, "Try it now, and cast all the hurting spells you can think of on it. ’ She hung the essence stone necklace from a glass bottle.

Fred and George threw every spell they knew on it, perfectly blocked by the necklace.But Lida still felt dissatisfied. She suddenly remembered the time when Harry fell off the broom in the second grade.She grabbed the necklace, turned to Fred and George and said, "I'm going to fall from a height!"

Fred firmly rejected her: "No!" He snatched Lida's necklace, and George looked at her in surprise and said, "Are you crazy?"

Lida went forward, trying to get the necklace back, but Fred held it high and refused to give it to her no matter what she said, Lida was so angry that she shed tears.Fred was a little flustered at this point, he quickly coaxed her, but he still refused to give her the necklace.George watched from the sidelines and shook his head. He always felt that Fred would become silly when he met Lida, but now Lida has become childish and crying. Run out.

George grabbed the necklace from Fred's hand and said to them: "Why do you have to do the experiment yourself? Can't you let Dumbledore see it?" Fred and Lida stared at him blankly, Then Lida buried her face in Fred's hands in shame, she didn't expect it, and she cried, it was so stupid.

Dumbledore carefully checked the necklace for them, and said to Lida approvingly: "Your research on the magic circle is so profound, this is really rare! I'm sure this is a very powerful protective magic necklace, it looks like It's also pretty, and Harry should like it." Lida finally felt relieved, she thought, she would be able to sleep well tonight!
