Chapter 433 Bad Premonition

Stay still and wait and see what happens. Dumbledore said so and did so, and he took no action against Moody in the school, as if he had discovered nothing.

Ada also stayed honest and did not do anything out of the ordinary. She is a person who knows the importance of things. It's just that Ada's mentality has changed to some extent. She now looks at Moody in school as if she has seen a wonderful performance.

Watching Moody in school continue to teach students, watching him take out the small flask he carried with him, and pretend to drink the polyjuice potion as if nothing had happened...

All of this was seen by Ada, as if she were enjoying a circus animal performance.

Ada finally experienced the joy of her first-grade professors. It turned out to be such an interesting thing to pretend not to know and watch the exposed undercover agent continue his performance.

Having fun alone is not as good as having fun together, and Ada also shared this happiness with Fred and George.

Only then did the three of them remember that they still had a semi-finished map in their hands, a map that could see through Moody's disguise in the school.

Due to some technical problems and development difficulties, the map never met the expectations of the three of them. The three of them did not want to work exhaustingly on a map anymore, so the development of the new Marauder's Point map was abandoned by the three of them. It was put on hold indefinitely and became an unfinished project.

The last test runs for the half-finished map date back to last school year.

As time passed, the unfinished map was forgotten by the three of them, and was thrown to the country of Java, although they did not know where the country of Java was.

When Ada was rummaging through the boxes in her dormitory, trying to find the map again, Fred and George were also rummaging through their dormitories. Then, the twins found this half-finished map at the foot of the table. The two brothers didn't even remember how long they had been using it to cushion the table's legs.

Almost a year later, the three people spread out the map again. As expected, they did not find Alastor Moody's name on the map. Moody was supposed to appear in Defense Against the Dark Arts class, but was replaced by Barty Crouch's name.

The shortcoming of the map appears again. Barty Crouch and his son have the same name. Just looking at the map, it is impossible to confirm whether this Barty Crouch is the missing old Barty or the minibus who has been dead for a long time. Di.

This is why Ada and the twins don't pay much attention to the map. The map still has too many shortcomings and is not perfect enough.

Time jumped to late May, and the third event of the Triwizard Tournament was approaching. Finally, in the last week of May, the Warriors finally want to know the content of the third project.

At half past eight that evening, Ada and Harry left the common room together, walked out of the castle, and melted into the cloudy night.

The warriors have received new instructions and they need to go to the Quidditch pitch at nine tonight.

The two men walked along the dark lawn towards the Quidditch pitch, and then entered the pitch through a gap between the stands.

Harry instantly became unhappy because the Quidditch pitch was no longer smooth and smooth, and had lost its original appearance. The stadium seems to be built with countless low walls, which are intertwined with each other to form an intricate pattern.

At this time, Fleur and Krum also entered the stadium and saw these low walls.

"What is this?" Fleur asked softly, confused by these low walls.

There are four warriors in the Triwizard Tournament. Although there is no such thing as four people and five groups, the four of them are not in harmony.

Among the four, Furong can be said to be the most popular.

Because she decisively refused to lick the dog Hector, Fleur won some of Ada's favor; because Harry helped Gabri with the second project, the relationship between Fleur and Harry became much closer; Krum didn't talk much, he There is no conflict with Furong, and the relationship cannot be said to be good or bad.

Some people are popular, and naturally some are not popular, and Krum is the less popular among the four.

Because of Hermione, Krum mistakenly regarded Harry as his love rival, and the relationship was naturally not good. After the Yule Ball, for some unknown reason, Krum's attitude towards Ada also changed, and he was vaguely hostile.

Ada herself is not aware of Krum's transformation, and even if she knew, she wouldn't care. There are many people who are hostile to Ada. Mr. Krum please queue up consciously, don't crowd, and don't jump in line.

"It's the wall." Harry responded to Fleur's question. He lowered his head and carefully observed the short wall closest to him. After thinking for a while, Harry continued: "Maybe these walls will turn into a maze."

Looking at it, the pattern formed by these low walls does look like a maze, but these walls are too short and cannot function as a maze at all.

"Hello!" shouted a cheerful voice, "I'm so glad to see you again!"

It was Ludo Backman, still wearing his old Quidditch uniform and with a smile on his face, but his smile didn't seem as bright as before.

Seeing Ludo Backman, Ada thought of the news that Sergei had sent her, news that left her speechless.

Ludo Buckman, a former famous Quidditch player in England, was once prosecuted by the Ministry of Magic for helping the Death Eaters deliver messages.

But this famous athlete did not go to jail, not because he bribed the Ministry of Magic or betrayed other Death Eaters, but because he was truly innocent.

He always thought that he was helping Rookwood of the Ministry of Magic. It was not until he was prosecuted that he knew that Rookwood was a Death Eater and he was deceived.

What is ironic is that Ludo Backman helped deliver the news only because Rookwood promised him to arrange a position in the Ministry of Magic for him after he retired.

"What do you think?" Ludo Bagman asked happily, like a happy big boy, "It's going well, isn't it? In another month, Hagrid will turn them into twenty feet High. Don’t worry, your Quidditch pitch will be back to its original shape as soon as the competition is over!”

Hearing this, knowing that his beloved Quidditch pitch would not be damaged, Harry's face finally turned cloudy.

"Okay, I think you already know the purpose of these low walls." Ludo Bagman continued to smile, "Yes, it is the maze. The third project is very simple and clear. The Triwizard Cup is placed in the center of the maze. , whichever warrior touches it first will get full points."

"We just need to go through the maze?" Fleur asked uncertainly. It was hard for her to believe that the third project was so simple.

"There will be lots of obstacles," said Bagman cheerfully, hopping up and down like a hopscotch, "and Hagrid has provided a whole bunch of animals...and some spells that have to be broken...and that sort of thing. thing."

Although the animals raised by Hagrid are generally dangerous, in Ada's opinion, the difficulty of the third project is not that high. Especially compared with the first two projects, this maze is somewhat anticlimactic.

After talking about the game items and the order in which the warriors would appear, Ludo Bagman asked: "Are there any questions? If not, let's go back to the castle!"

After speaking, everyone left the stadium together and walked towards the castle.

As soon as the group of people walked out of the stadium, Krum stopped Harry. He wanted to have a few words with Harry alone.

This scene made Ada feel familiar, like a tall and strong class bully grabbing a thin boy.

However, Klum was not forced to do so, and Harry did so voluntarily. The two of them moved away from the team and gradually disappeared into the night.

Watching the two people walking away, Ada was a little hesitant. She always had some bad premonitions in her heart.

It was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and the night was dark. It would not be a good thing to let Harry wander alone outside the castle. It wasn't that he was worried that Krum would actually beat Harry, but that someone would take advantage of this opportunity and take risks.

As they walked, Ada also left the team and looked in the direction where Krum and Harry disappeared just now.
