"I'll wait for you inside."

Furong whispered in Link's ear, then let go of her hand and walked quickly into the small room next door.

During this whole process, the few applause in the auditorium disappeared.

Everyone was looking at Furong and Link in incomparably shocked, some of the resentment eyes that had originally been directed at Furong were transferred to Link.

Even Dumbledore and Ms. Maxim in the faculty seats have complex expressions of thought.

Link didn't dare to see Emily's reaction at this time, he silently threw the small half of pumpkin pie left in his hand into his mouth, chewing hard.

"When did you fall in love with her?"

John came out at the right time and asked in a low voice, with a mean expression on his face.

Not only him, but Cedric and Rove and many others are curious and waiting for his answer.

But Link still didn't speak, just compared to them an international contempt gesture.

puff! ~

The flame in the goblet turned from blue to red again, and a note was spit out.

This sound successfully drew everyone's attention back.

Dumbledore looked at the contents of the note, and a bright smile appeared on his face.

He took a deep look in the direction where Link was, and then held the note high up and said:

"Warrior of Hogwarts! Link Foley!"

In an instant, all the complicated eyes around Link disappeared, replaced by deafening cheers.

Every Hufflepuff student was screaming and stomping. Hagrid on the faculty seat was desperately pulling a thin old man beside him and screaming, as if to introduce his relationship with Link. , Even Snape's mouth had an imperceptible smile.

Link didn't have time to join this celebration. He dexterously avoided the open arms of John and the others, and walked through the crowd towards the small room as if fleeing.

The small room next to the auditorium seems to be a place similar to a trophy showroom. The walls on both sides here are covered with various magical portraits, and the innermost is a burning fireplace.

When Link entered the auditorium, all the faces in the portrait turned to look at him.

When they saw that Link was wearing a Hogwarts school uniform, these magical portraits cheered like the people outside.

Furong and Krum were all around the fire, the distance between them was a little farther apart, and both remained silent, seeming to be guarding each other.

Hearing the sound of Link coming in, both of them turned their heads. Among them, Furong was happier than those portraits, and the one who was jumping about to rush on Link again.

Link won't let her succeed this time. With a move of his finger, two obstacles and heavy curses blocked Furong in front of him.

"What are you doing?"

Link angrily said, "Do you know what people outside are thinking of me now? I have a fiancee!"

Furong was stunned for a moment, and the hazy mist once again covered her pair of bright silver eyes.

"I, I'm just so happy," she said aggrievedly, lowering her head and twisting her hands together. "Yes, I'm sorry."

This scene reminded Link of the previously lost scene of Furong alone in the auditorium who wanted to celebrate but couldn't find a partner. His expression softened slightly, and he sighed:

"Okay, okay! I'll forgive you this time! But you must go to Emily to explain it to Emily when you turn around!"

As soon as the words came out, the mist on Furong's eyes disappeared, and a smiling face was changed in an instant. He jumped forward and grabbed Link's arm with both hands and smiled:

"Don't worry, nothing will happen. I told her that this is the custom of our French, the passion of the French, you know."

At this time, Link naturally knew that the other party's loss was probably pretending to be pitiful and showing him deliberately. He gritted his teeth, shook off Furong's hand and went to the fireplace to start cooking.

The scene in the auditorium just now scared him into a cold sweat.

Krum, who was leaning on the mantelpiece next to him, opened his mouth slightly, as if he was hesitant to talk, as if he wanted to join him in a hot conversation with Fleur.

But after a while, he said to Link with some difficulty:

"Hello."

The accent is very strange, this is another host who doesn't understand English.

Link made a judgment in his heart and simply nodded to Krum, he did not forget John's hatred.

Furong leaned forward with a smile on her face again.

This time she learned to be smart and didn't have any physical contact with Link rashly, but she was also very close, just chatting on the side.

It can be seen that she is still very excited in her heart, so she wants to vent it this way.

Link helplessly perfunct her, after a while, there was a noise from the door.

Harry walked in through the door probing his head, his pale face turned paler in the light of the fire.

Link's expression immediately became gloomy.

"What? Do they want us to go back to the auditorium?"

Fleur said to Harry with a smile, and she regarded Harry as a message.

This embarrassed Harry.

His gaze drifted involuntarily towards Link, who he knew best in the room, but it happened to meet Link's face, which looked particularly gloomy in the shadows.

This made Harry froze suddenly.

There was another panic of footsteps outside, and Bagman grabbed Harry's arm and pulled it from where he was blocking the door to the center of the room.

"This is amazing! Two gentlemen, and this lady," he looked very excited, rubbing Harry's arm and said to the three Linkers, "Although this seems incredible, let me introduce you. , This is the fourth warrior in the Triwizard Tournament!"

He repeated it again in Bulgarian, which made Krum's expression, which he finally understood, instantly became even uglier than Link.

The lotus on the side shook her long hair (Link only felt a scent coming. That hair almost hit him in the face.), she smiled and said:

"Oh! This joke is really funny, Mr. Bagman."

"Joke?" Bagman's expression was a little puzzled, he shook his head and said, "No! No! Absolutely not, Harry's name just came out of the goblet of fire."

"This is obviously a mistake! He can't play, he is too young!"

Furong was still reluctant, but as soon as her voice fell, the door to the room was pushed open again.

Dumbledore and other principals and professors all walked into the room.

"Ms. Maxim! They said this little boy would also participate in the competition!"

Furong said loudly as if seeing a savior.

And Maxim also walked two steps quickly and came to Furong. She looked very angry, and the huge chest O in black satin clothes was undulating violently.

"What the **** does this mean? Dumbledore."

Maxim said with suppressed anger.

Her burly and unusual body dragged a huge shadow under the light of the fireplace, and enveloped Dumbledore and others on the opposite side, looking extremely horrible.

"I want to know this too, Dumbledore." Karkaroff also said in a strange way, "Can there be two warriors at Hogwarts? Don't I remember someone telling me this? Could it be that I see the regulations? Isn't it careful enough?"

"This is impossible,"

Ms. Maxim’s big hands with many gorgeous opal rings naturally rested on Link’s shoulders. “There can’t be two warriors at Hogwarts. This is not just an injustice to Boothbarton and Durmstrang. , It is also unfair to Link. This honor should belong to him alone!"

Ms. Maxim appeared to be very close to Link, but the intention of her behavior was a bit of an attempt to provoke separation.

Therefore, Link frowned and shook off the big hand very simply.

At this moment Snape stood out from the shadows, locked Harry tightly with his viper-like eyes, and said coldly:

"I agree with this point. Harry must never participate in the Triwizard Tournament. This is unfair to everyone."

"Thank you, Severus."

Dumbledore said categorically, which made Snape shut his mouth again, "Harry, did you ask an older classmate to help you cast your name into the Goblet of Fire?"

"No!"

Harry answered without a hint of hesitation, but Snape sneered after him.

"Who would believe you? A habitual offender who likes to lie!"

Afterwards, Karkaroff and Snape seemed to be talking about double reeds, and began to ridicule Harry, during which Ms. Maxim would also add a sentence or two from time to time.

The main idea is still that Harry cannot participate in the Triwizard Tournament.

But this is definitely not possible.

Because everyone in the room knows that the way for Goblet of Fire to select the warriors is to sign a magic contract. Once this magic contract is signed, the selected warriors must participate in the competition, and there is no step back.

So the reason why Karkaroff and Maxim performed so violently was actually just trying to find Dumbledore to compensate by applying pressure.

This compensation can be to allow the two of them to have one more warrior to compete, or their warriors can enjoy some preferential treatment in the competition.

Unfortunately, judging from the current situation, Dumbledore is not going to give anything.

After all, Link, Krum and Fleur have also signed the Goblet of Fire contract and must participate.

Now that the Triwizard Tournament is destined to be held, there is no need to meet the requirements of Karkaroff and Maxim.

Knowing this, Link cast his gaze on Harry and Old Barty Crouch who had been silent.

Harry was so excited at this time that his whole body was trembling, his eyes were still shining with rage, his main eyes were Snape and Karkaroff.

Of course, Link reckons that Harry now has a slight hatred for everyone in this room, including himself.

With a sigh, Link stood up and said:

"The Goblet of Fire was indeed touched by someone, which led to Harry becoming a warrior. But I believe that this person will definitely not be Harry!"

As soon as this remark came out, the quarrel in the room suddenly stopped.

Everyone was looking at Link with an unclear look.

After a long time, Dumbledore said:

"What do you know?"

"The Confusion Curse, the user used a very advanced Confusion Curse on the Goblet of Fire. This directly caused the Goblet of Fire to mistakenly believe that there are four schools participating in the Triwizard Tournament. And the extra bag school has only Harry Potter is a student, so you can ensure that Harry Potter becomes a warrior."

Link walked to the crowd and said solemnly, "But it is absolutely impossible for Harry to do it! Because he can't release such a high-level Confusion Curse."

Hearing that Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall both nodded their heads. Although the expressions of Karkaroff and Maxim and others did not change, they had to admit that Link's words were reasonable.

As for Harry, he was almost crying at this time, and the look in Link's eyes changed from complaining at the beginning to gratitude.

Thank goodness! This is the only person who believes in him tonight!

"Since Harry didn't do it, who would it be?"

Ludo Bagman rubbed his chin and said to himself.

This caused everyone's eyes to return to Link again.

"It's easy to speculate, isn't it?" Link chuckled. "Although you claim that the Triwizard Tournament has been reformed, the danger has been greatly reduced. But if one or two warriors die in it, no one will be surprised. Right?

I thought, the guy who didn't care wanted to take advantage of the Triwizard Tournament to get rid of Harry, right? "

After speaking, Dumbledore and others changed their faces.

Link's gaze slowly swept across the faces of everyone present.

He didn't tell the story of Arkham staying in the Goblet of Fire last night.

This means that the Goblet of Fire can only be used before it is transported to Hogwarts.

During this period of time, the only three principals who have been in contact with the Goblet of Fire, Ludo Bagman and Barty Crouch from the Ministry of Magic.

The man behind the scenes is among these few people!

"Well, I will report this matter to the Ministry of Magic and continue to investigate." Dumbledore said to everyone, "But as far as the Triwizard Tournament itself is concerned, we now accept the result that there will be four warriors participating this time. and so……"

"Ah, but Dumbledore..."

"My dear Ms. Maxim~lightnovelpub.net~ If you have another solution, I am willing to listen."

Dumbledore waited, but Maxim did not speak for a long time, just staring angrily there.

There are many people who are dissatisfied with this result.

Snape was even more angry, but Link didn’t mean it. Snape, the tofu-hearted guy, saw through the essence of the matter from the beginning. The previous words also wanted to prevent Harry from participating. Into the trap.

It's a pity that he failed, and he got into a show.

The only thing that surprised Link was that even though Karkaroff's complexion was not pretty, he was very calm.

This is not in line with his arrogant appearance at the beginning.

"Okay, shall we continue?" Ludo Bagman looked very excited. He rubbed his hands and said, "I'm going to guide our warriors, isn't it? Batty, are you talking about it?"

Old Barty Crouch, who had been hiding in the shadows, raised his head as if he had just awakened from contemplation.

Link now looked closer and realized that although it was only a few months later, the old Batty was obviously weakened and old, and his whole person was languishing.

He said to Link and others like a zombie:

"The first project is to test your courage, dare to face the unknown is an important quality of wizards, so we are not going to tell you what it is."

"The first project will be carried out on November 24. During the project, the warriors are not allowed to request or accept any help from their teachers. The only weapon in your hand is your own magic wand. Wait for the end of the first project. Later, we will tell you about the second project. In addition, due to the high requirements of the competition and the long duration, the Warriors will not take the school year exam."

"Then, I wish you a happy game."
