Chapter 1 Double School Starts Again!
The new semester started again, and Zhang Hao finally boarded the Hogwarts train again.
He was actually very reluctant to take the train, but it was only once a year (except for the beginning of school in one year, almost always diverted to Apparate in the Forbidden Forest), and Renren passed.
The train is moving forward rapidly, the sky is also gloomy, and heavy rain may fall from the sky at any time.
Compared with this weather, the atmosphere in the box is much better.
"Have you heard?" Draco said mysteriously, "This year's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor has changed to a very special person."
"Who?" Pansy asked curiously, "A certain wizard we know? Is he famous?"
Zhang Hao and Daphne were indifferent to this, one of them quietly looked out the window, and the other held a book to study at ease, they were really indifferent.
Draco glanced at them with dissatisfaction, and said uninterestedly, "It's Mad-Eye Moody, that lunatic who likes to catch dark wizards. I heard that he is really going crazy, and even looks like a dark wizard to everyone."
"So it was him?" Pansy said anxiously, "This is going to be troublesome, he hates dark wizards so much, maybe he will target us Slytherins then."
"You're right, I think so too." Draco said suddenly yin and yang, "But some of us don't have to worry at all, and some people have even called him the next White Devil. I guess, Mad-Eye Moody No matter how crazy you are, you won’t trouble someone, right?”
Zhang Hao finally made a move. He turned his head to Draco and said, "Why are you talking so eccentrically? I haven't provoked you for a long time. Are you looking for trouble again?"
"You have to talk about evidence. I'm just talking about someone, but I didn't say that person is you." Draco said slyly and sincerely, "I know you are unreasonable, please believe me, I really didn't pick things up the meaning of."
Pan Xi curled her lips in disdain, cowardice is cowardice, is whitewashing useful?
"Since you said that, then I'll let you go this time." Zhang Hao shrugged and said, "Actually, I don't want to play too naive a game today, or you can't avoid this disaster by saying anything."
Draco rolled his eyes, he knew in his heart that what Zhang Hao said was serious, but in fact it would not hurt him at all.
But what is there to be afraid of losing face?
In the past three years,
Has he already lost all his face?
"There is one more thing you don't know," he changed the subject, and said nervously, "The Triwizard Tournament, which has been suspended for many years, may be restarted this year!"
"Triwizard Tournament?"
Pansy said in surprise, "Is that the Triwizard Tournament where many people died?"
Daphne also put away her books. Everyone chatted so happily that she could no longer read quietly.
"Yeah! Besides that, is there any Triwizard Tournament?" Draco nodded, and then said to Zhang Hao, "Why aren't you surprised at all? Did you also receive the news in advance?"
Zhang Hao spread his hands, and said boringly, "You know and ask? How could this kind of thing be hidden from me?"
"Will you two participate?" Pansy looked at Zhang Hao, then at Draco, and asked expectantly, "The Triwizard Tournament is one of the highest honors, will you fight for it?"
Draco nodded, then shook his head again, "I'm afraid we won't be able to participate. I heard from my father that this year's Triwizard Tournament has an age limit. They have taken many protective measures. Wizards under the age of seventeen are not allowed to participate at all. "
"This is indeed much safer, but it's a pity!" Pan Xi said regretfully, "The Triwizard Tournament is only held once every five years. If you miss this time, you will have no chance to participate."
Zhang Hao also felt a little regretful. Although the Triwizard Tournament was the same as pediatrics for him, wouldn't the abuse of food be just as exciting?
All right! If you don't allow participation, you don't allow participation. Isn't it just an adventure game? It's not that I haven't played before!
Draco was also a little unhappy, let alone whether it is possible to win the championship, at least the qualification to participate should not be deprived, right?
How uncomfortable it is to be unable to participate in a rare event that lies before us!
"Forget it, let's not talk about this." Draco shook his head, and suddenly said gloatingly, "You all know what happened in the Quidditch World Cup, right? That idiot Potter got his wand stolen, and the one who stole it The man with the magic wand also used his wand to cast the bone reappearance. You must not know that he was almost taken away as a murderer!"
Zhang Hao was startled, and asked in surprise, "How do you know about this?"
"Don't even look at who my father is?" Draco said proudly, "Potter, that idiot, was caught with the elf of the Crouch family. The elf named Winky held Potter in his hand." But that wand did carry out the reappearance of bones - the Ministry of Magic officials cast a flashback curse on the wand on the spot. It's complicated, isn't it? Mouth can't get away."
Zhang Hao nodded, Draco was indeed right.
With Harry's heart and intelligence, it is indeed possible to be blinded when encountering such a thing.
"You have said so much, but you still don't know who put the Dark Mark." Pansy frowned and said, "Who put the Dark Mark? Doesn't the Ministry of Magic have any clues?"
Draco shook his head, spread his hands and said, "They really didn't find any clues, and in the end they could only blame this on some Death Eater who has never been brought to justice."
Zhang Hao secretly laughed in his heart, "The Death Eaters who have never been brought to justice? Isn't your father one of them?"
At this point, he already understood the whole story of the Quidditch World Cup Dark Mark incident.
Undoubtedly, as far as the issue of the Dark Mark is concerned, it may be purely accidental.
Barty Crouch Jr. premeditated to escape, he took advantage of Harry's unsuspecting, stole Harry's wand, and then released the Dark Mark while Winky was not paying attention.
oh! Maybe he also cast a spell on Winky, which would explain why he wasn't exposed.
"There's one more thing I'm sorry about," Draco said like a Bai Xiaosheng, "Yesterday... just yesterday, someone sneaked into Mad-Eye Moody's yard. The infiltrator touched a The cursed trash can, I heard that when the Muggle police went there, the trash can was still spitting garbage out."
"Who would sneak into his yard?" Pansy said incomprehensibly. "He put a spell on the Muggle trash can? Wouldn't that break some law? Didn't the Ministry punish him?"
"Of course, how could there be no punishment?" Draco said regretfully, "If it weren't for the red-haired idiot's father, Mad-Eye Moody might not be able to teach at Hogwarts."
The red-haired fool was one of Ron's nicknames, and Draco often called him that behind his back.
Zhang Hao frowned and thought for a moment, it seems... things are developing in the direction of the original book again?
Someone sneaked into Mad-Eye Moody's house, which is a bit unusual!
It is undeniable that Mad-Eye Moody has indeed accumulated a lot of enemies because of arresting dark wizards all the year round.
But those enemies didn't have the guts to seek revenge-if they were so rampant, I'm afraid no one in the wizarding world would dare to do Auror.
Since it wasn't the work of those ordinary dark wizards, who would have the guts to attack Moody?
Zhang Hao immediately thought of Barty Crouch Jr., probably only this guy is so crazy.
After all, in the original book, he pretended to be Moody and was a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts for nearly a year.
"Hey! It's fun again later. If I show Barty Crouch Jr. at the banquet, what will he look like?"
As for maintaining the original plot?
It is impossible to maintain the original plot, and it is impossible to maintain the original plot in this life.
This world is already many times more complicated than the original plot, and it may not make much sense to maintain the original plot.
If you blindly believe in the original plot, maybe you will be misled in the end.
Zhang Hao thought about it and decided what to do later.
...
In the evening, the Hogwarts train finally arrived at the end.
It was raining heavily outside, and many little wizards were drenched.
The most pitiful thing is the first-year freshmen. In this weather, they have to ferry across the black lake.
When Zhang Hao and his party arrived at the castle in the Thestral carriage, Draco was drenched all over.
"What's the matter with you?" He shivered from the cold, looked at the three of Zhang Hao in amazement, and said puzzledly, "Why didn't you get wet by the rain?"
Pansy and Daphne hadn't noticed this yet, and they both looked blank.
"Should we get wet from the rain?" Zhang Hao said innocently, "We are all wizards. If such a little rain can get us wet, isn't magic learned for nothing?"
Draco opened his mouth and said incredulously, "You mean, I learned fake magic?"
Zhang Hao spread his hands and didn't answer, so he wouldn't tell Draco the truth of the matter, and Draco would definitely collapse!
Daphne and Pansy looked at each other, as if thinking of something.
They vaguely remembered that when the heavy rain fell around them, they seemed to avoid it automatically, but they didn't pay attention to it-everyone was busy drilling into a warmer place!
They stood in the foyer, waiting in line to enter the hall.
Suddenly a big red balloon filled with water fell from the sky, it exploded above Ron's head, and the water splashed everywhere.
Daphne was also affected, and even Zhang Hao was almost splashed by ice water.
He calmly looked at the ghost in the red hat, it was Peeves!
People panicked, angry, and wanted to tear Peeves apart - but that couldn't be done!
Everyone knows that not even basilisks can kill ghosts!
Peeves laughed unscrupulously. He also took out another balloon filled with water and aimed at other targets.
Zhang Hao stared at Peeves, let out a breath, and then took a deep breath.
The people around didn't feel anything, only Peeves, his frightened struggle was useless.
As Zhang Hao inhaled, Peeves slowly floated towards Zhang Hao as if being swept by a hurricane.
"Ah! Let me go...you devil, let me go!" Peeves said in panic, "What are you doing? Let me go! It's scary there!"
People don't know why, no one knows where Peeves is talking about.
Professor McGonagall was about to scold Peeves, but he was shocked when he saw this scene.
She slipped and nearly fell to the ground.
At the critical moment, fortunately, she grabbed Hermione's neck.
"Oops! I'm sorry, Miss Granger!"
"It's okay, Professor!" Hermione gasped, rubbing her neck.
Professor McGonagall didn't care about Hermione anymore, because Peeves had already been sucked into Zhang Hao's mouth, and it seemed that he would be swallowed up in the next moment!
Peeves was skinless now, he was like a helpless child.
"Mr. Zhang Hao, let him go!" Although Professor McGonagall didn't know what would happen to Peeves if he continued, she was sure that it would not be a good result.
Zhang Hao turned from inhaling to exhaling, like a high-power fan, blowing Peeves to the ceiling in one go!
He warned, "There will be another time, and I will never be reborn!"
Peeves wanted to say something else, but when he heard this, he quickly fled through the ceiling without a trace.
People were astonished, only the bloody Barrow had been able to subdue Peeves, and now there was another one—and it seemed that Peeves would have to make a detour when he saw Zhang Hao in the future.
Professor McGonagall stared at Zhang Hao for a while, but didn't see through what magic he used.
"Go in quickly! There are quite a lot of things to do today... Come in quickly!" She waved her hands and directed the students into the auditorium.
After everyone was seated, she went to pick up the freshmen again.
Zhang Hao was surprised to find that there was an unexpected person on the professor's chair.
Before he could think too much, the first-year freshman entered the arena.
oh! One unlucky man fell into the lake, but he was lucky enough to wear Hagrid's coat.
Next, of course, was the sorting ceremony that people were looking forward to.
The freshmen were as uneasy as ever, for fear that they would be assigned to a college they didn't like.
But it's not up to them, not everyone's thoughts can affect the sorting hat.
During the sorting ceremony, many people didn't care about who was assigned to which college, they only cared about when they could have a hot meal.
At the end of the sorting, Dumbledore routinely conjures food.
He said succinctly, "There are only two words I want to say to you!"
So, everyone started eating and drinking.
After a long time, the last desserts on the table were swept away, the crumbs of seniority disappeared, and everything returned to normal.
Although some people want more, they are destined to be unsatisfied.
Dumbledore stood up again, and the buzzing voices in the hall stopped suddenly, only the whistling wind and the splashing of heavy rain could be heard.
"Okay!" Dumbledore said with a smile, "Now that we are all full, I must announce a few announcements to everyone."
"Mr. Filch, the Administrator, would like me to tell you that a few more items have been added to the prohibited items in the castle this year. They are the Screaming Ball, the Mace, and the Combo Boomerang . . . the entire list consists of about four hundred and three Seventeen, available in Mr. Filch's office, for those interested to check."
Speaking of this, the corners of Old Deng's mouth twitched visibly.
Zhang Hao suspects that the old man actually likes those weird gadgets, so it's a pity that those gadgets are banned?
Dumbledore reiterated the old rules of the past, and then solemnly announced, "I also regret to tell you that there will be no College Cup Quidditch tournament this year."
As soon as this remark came out, there were all kinds of discussions in the audience.
The insiders seemed very calm, such as Zhang Hao and Draco.
Dumbledore gasped, "This is because a big event will start in October and last for the entire school year, taking up a lot of time and energy of the teachers - but I believe that you will all have a lot of fun out of it. I I am very happy to announce to you that this year's Hogwarts—"
At this moment, a deafening thunder sounded outside...
The door of the auditorium was also knocked open!
