Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 886 Braggart

  The two turned their heads and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a group of men and women dressed differently from others walking towards this side.

Yanila's eyes could not help falling on the hands held by Albert and Isobel, and she raised her head up and down to look at the red-haired girl in front of her who was suspected to be Albert's girlfriend. Although the other party was not as beautiful as herself, she was equally Also a beautiful woman.

"Your friend?"

  Isobel was not annoyed when he noticed that the other party was looking at him. Instead, he turned his head gently and asked the boyfriend next to him. His tone sounded as if he was asking Albert if he knew the little girl next door.

   "A friend I met when I went to Spain during the summer vacation." Albert always felt that the atmosphere around him was not good.

   "Welcome to Hogwarts, I hope this place can leave you with good memories." Isobel stared into Yanila's eyes and said with a smile.

  Yanila frowned suddenly. Although the person in front of her was smiling, it always gave her a bad feeling. What's with the feeling of being seen through?

   "Okay, let's not crowd here and talk, it will disturb other people's business. The weather is a bit cold, do you want to go in for a drink?" Albert greeted them into the tavern.

  Yanila followed the two into the bar directly. Her family owns a bar, and she was also curious about what a bar in England looks like.

   "Let's go in too."

  Furong was very dissatisfied with Yanila's unauthorized actions, but she wanted to see Yanila's distressed appearance, so she called others into the bar.

  After entering the Three Broomsticks, Albert saw quite a few acquaintances, Fred, George, and Lee Jordan were whispering together.

   After seeing Albert, Cedric raised his glass and greeted him.

The originally noisy bar gradually quieted down. After seeing Albert, the girls who spoke in low voices also gradually quieted down. They turned their heads and looked over, and their eyes fell on Isobel who was beside Albert. Soon there was a sense of unconcealable disappointment.

Everyone was soon attracted by the Beauxbaton students who appeared at the door, especially Furong, which caused a lot of commotion, and caused the boys in the tavern to behave very strangely. These guys actually began to subconsciously They tidied up their appearance carefully, and some even accidentally knocked over their drinks, but they still smirked at Fu Rong.

Yanila sat down beside Albert, and Fleur took her younger sister Gabriel to sit at Albert's table. The other Beauxbaton students could only stare blankly at the other table far away. A table to sit at.

   "What would you like to drink?"

   Albert felt that the atmosphere in the bar had become very strange, as if all the customers were looking at this side.

   "Same as you." Yanila said with a smile.

   "What about you?" Albert asked Sister Delacour.

  Gabriel, who was looking at the tavern with great interest, heard what Albert said, and said in a sweet voice: "It's good that my sister and I are like big brother."

   "Then butter beer."

   Albert got up and walked to the bar, inadvertently caught a glimpse of Fred, George and Lee Jordan smiling at him.

   "Those people are VIPs, right?" Ms. Rosmerta also looked at the group of faces with great interest.

   "They are all students of Beauxbaton School of Magic." Albert briefly introduced.

  Looking at the two charming girls, Rosmerta winked at Albert and said, "You have a lot of friends."

   "Five glasses of butterbeer." Albert didn't answer the other party's words.

  Suddenly there was the sound of something falling to the ground in the bar. It was obvious that someone accidentally knocked down the wine glass on the table.

  Ms. Rosmerta put five cups of warm butterbeer in front of Albert, glanced at the glasses that fell on the ground, and said in a reproachful tone: "Your charming friend has increased my workload."

   "I'm sorry, ma'am." Albert said helplessly. He paid the money, took out his wand and waved it lightly, causing five butterbeer glasses to float with him.

   "This is a toffee-flavored sweet beer, you should like it." Albert put a glass of butter beer in front of Gabrielle. Then share the remaining butterbeer with others.

   Gabriel held the cup in both hands, took a sip, and said with a smile, "It's delicious, thank you, big brother."

   "The taste is not bad, but I prefer fruit wine." Yanila took a sip of the butter beer and commented briefly: "However, this thing is indeed more suitable for drinking in winter."

  Furong didn't touch the butter beer in front of her, but looked around the Three Broomsticks bar, and said in a critical tone: "I don't like this kind of small bar, it's too small and crowded, and the drinks are very average."

"It's not that you don't like small bars, it's that you don't like bars. No matter which country you're in, bars are basically the same as here, except that they're bigger. I dare say that Barnabus Bar can definitely rank first in the whole of Europe. However, you still can’t see where.” Yanila said unceremoniously and sarcasticly, “As far as I know, there are no luxurious bars on Wizard Street in France.”

  Furong snorted dissatisfiedly. She really didn't like bars, and she didn't like other people's lustful eyes.

The photo of "click" suddenly sounded not far away, and everyone turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound, and saw the photographer next to Rita Skeeter holding a **** camera that was slightly smoking Take a picture here.

   After looking around the bar, Rita Skeeter also cast an interested look in this direction, as if she wanted to make a big fuss about Albert.

Before the portly photographer took another photo, he seemed to have tripped under his feet and fell to the ground with an "ouch". Even the expensive-looking camera also fell to the ground. I don't know if it broke or not.

   There were sporadic low laughter suddenly, Rita Skeeter and his photographer Fu Zuo were obviously not welcome here, and the girls made no secret of their gloating.

"Reporters are always annoying. They often fabricate specious things without integrity." Yanila made no secret of her dislike of reporters, and whispered: "I have read her report, almost all of which are about That savior boy named Harry Potter didn't even mention Albert's name and misspelled Fleur's name."

  Furong snorted softly, expressing her dissatisfaction.

  There was a commotion at the door, and Rita Skeeter, who was planning to leave, met the person she was looking for at the door of the bar.

Rita Skeeter stretched out her hand to pull Harry, hoping to give Harry another interview, but in the end, Harry dodged it deftly, and without knowing what happened, Rita Skeeter was in a panic. fell to the ground.

   Suddenly there was a dead silence in the bar, and then a burst of laughter erupted. The girls who hated Rita Skeeter laughed at the woman they hated wantonly.

   "Be careful when you go in, the ground here seems to be slippery." Harry muttered, pretending that he didn't see Rita Skeeter who fell, and walked into the bar.

  Women like Rita Skeeter better leave him alone.

  Hermione secretly glanced at Harry out of the corner of her eye, her eyebrows slightly raised, and there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth. She also didn't like Rita Skeeter, who had caused her a lot of trouble with her nonsense in the newspapers.

  The other party obviously had no good intentions when looking for Harry.

   Hermione just didn't want Harry to use this method to solve the problem.

  Albert was also surprised by Harry's actions. He could naturally see that Rita Skeeter's fall was not accidental, but someone secretly cast a spell on her, causing her to fall.

  Albert never thought about what he said earlier, which made Harry Potter completely let go of himself.

   "Albert, are you ready?" Yanila's voice brought Albert's attention back, "I remember that you will start your first project on the 24th."

   "I'm actually looking forward to the content of the first project." Albert said with a smile, "I don't know what surprises the Ministry of Magic will prepare for us."

   "Surprise?" Fu Rong's voice was a little higher, "The Triwizard Tournament in the past has not lost many people."

   "Normal, isn't it?"

   "Normal?"

   "No, I don't think you're normal." Fleur looked at Albert with weird eyes.

"The Triwizard Tournament tests the warriors from many different aspects, and tests the warriors' magical talents, strengths, courage, theory, reasoning ability, and ability to overcome danger." Albert's tone suddenly paused, and he said, "These are just verbal good words. This game is notorious in history. It is said that every event is very difficult. If no safety measures are taken, it is very normal for the warriors to lose their lives in the game. Take 1792 For the project of the Triwizard Tournament in 2018, the warriors wanted to catch a chicken-snake monster, do you think you can really subdue and catch a chicken-snake monster without any preparation?"

   "If it's really dangerous." Isobel took Albert's hand and said, "I hope you can put protecting your own safety as the first priority, and other things are not that important."

"I think your worries are unfounded. With Albert's ability, he can easily pass the first event." Yanila glanced at Fu Rong and continued: "Now everyone says that Albert will win the championship, so just Even Maxim thinks so."

   "Isobel refers to the risks behind this game." Albert explained for Isobel. "The risk behind it?" Fu Rong's tone was a little strange, "Is there something else in this game that we don't know?"

"He's obviously referring to four warriors." Yanila's brains are good, "I think there is a problem with that 'Harry Potter' being called the savior, a title I think you all know what it means .”

  Fleur looked up at Harry's seat, her eyes met Ron's, causing Ron to panic and knock over the butterbeer on the table.

   "Potter is a very miraculous person. Every year he causes a little trouble, and it is not a trivial matter. This year's incident, I think you should not be difficult to guess. He became the fourth warrior out of nowhere.

   "Didn't Hogwarts do this?" Fu Rong sneered, "In order to give myself a chance to win?"

   "You actually believe such words." Yanila looked at Furong with the eyes of a fool.

"Cheating is actually very common in competitions between schools, and cheating is a part of the tradition of the Triwizard Tournament." Isobel took a sip of butter beer and said in a low voice, "So, you don't really need to pay too much attention to this matter. I think the principal of Beauxbatons will definitely find a way to help you cheat, and the principal of Durmstrang will definitely help their warriors cheat."

  Fleur didn't expect to hear such words from other people's mouths, and she herself didn't want to believe it, because Madam Maxim hadn't planned to help her cheat so far.

"Don't be surprised. I encountered this situation when I participated in the Magic School Potions Championship with Isobel before. All the players were cheating, and the whole game was like a joke." Albert made no secret of it His contempt and disdain, "So, you don't really need to care about the Triwizard Tournament. The so-called honor is just a joke. It is more important to protect your own safety, especially in this unusual Triwizard Tournament with Potter's participation." , I'm sure something will definitely happen in the Triwizard Tournament."

   "So, are you trying to say that no one else can take away the Triwizard Championship from you?" Fu Rong didn't like this feeling.

   "I never said that." Albert shrugged.

   "Can big brother catch the fire dragon?" Gabriel asked curiously.

"I haven't tried it." Albert thought for a moment and said, "However, if you seize the opportunity, it should be fine. The only troublesome thing is that the fire dragon can fly. Once it flies, basically you can only shoot it down. gone."

   "Can it really be done?" Gabriel asked adoringly.

"Don't be silly, Gabriel, that guy is just bragging." Fleur naturally knew how difficult the fire dragon is, "As far as I know, the thick skin of the fire dragon is infiltrated with ancient magic, and only the most powerful spells can penetrate it." hurt them."

   "Magic may be more troublesome, but physical methods can be used." Albert said, "Also, they always have their own weaknesses. As long as they target the weaknesses, it is actually easy to seriously injure them."

   "What is the weakness of the fire dragon?" Gabriel asked curiously.

   "The eyelids of the fire dragon are very fragile." Albert said.

"Exaggeration." Fu Rong said disdainfully. She admitted that Albert was very powerful, but she didn't think he could fight a fire dragon alone, let alone subdue them. Even a dragon trainer needs seven or eight wizards to fight together. Subdue a dragon.

   "I believe you are not bragging, I believe you have the ability to subdue the fire dragon." Yanila said softly.

   "You are always so popular with girls." Isobel said with a smile, "It seems that I am really lucky."

   "Ahem, you are not, I am the lucky Albert." Albert forcibly ended the topic, and said to the other girls at the table: "We have something to do, so let's go first, see you later."

   "I hate that hypocritical woman." After Albert and Isobel left, Yanila muttered softly.

   "It seems that you are not hypocritical." Fu Rong sneered, "Give up, their relationship has always been very good, you have no hope."
