Chapter 285 Ino's Promise

The game is still in progress.

In less than half an hour, the Irish team scored an overwhelming 70 points, while the Bulgarian team still scored 0 points without scoring a single goal.

To those who don't understand Quidditch, this situation looks like a one-sided massacre.

However, many experienced fans saw the clue, and the Bulgarian team used a five-guarantee-one strategy at the beginning.

To put it bluntly, there are five players on the field. In addition to the goalkeeper, three chasers and two batters, their responsibility is to assist Krum.

Grab the Quaffle if you can, and give up if you can't. Klum takes the lead in everything, catching the Golden Snitch before the score differs by 150 points, and blitzing to end the game.

This strategy may be successful, but only if the opponent is strong. Facing the Irish team, which is also a top team and is even better, the five-guarantee-one strategy is somewhat stretched.

Obviously, the Irish team chose to take advantage of the situation after the start. Since the seeker couldn't beat Krum, they used points to smooth it out.

It is also a blitz, trying to open the score to more than 150 before the golden snitch is caught.

Both parties had their own wishful thinking, but this was at the expense of the 100,000 spectators present.

When two lightning bolts collide, the sparks created are more than just a spark, not to mention the catalyst before the game.

…

Fierce confrontation and tense atmosphere enveloped the entire stadium.

But there was only one place that was not affected at all.

"Professor! Do you have any plans after school starts?" Ino asked casually in the box.

Although the story has been changed beyond recognition, the Goblet of Fire will most likely remain unchanged, which makes him a little curious about Dumbledore's subsequent arrangements.

"After school starts?" Dumbledore raised his eyebrows in surprise, but then seemed to remember something and said with a smile:

"Everything in the future is not fixed, it depends on the choice of the soothsayer."

"However, I am happy to share my plan with you. The Goblet of Fire is a grand event, and it also represents the honor of the three magic schools in Europe..."

Dumbledore spoke softly, and Eno remained silent and listened the whole time.

The other protagonist in the room, Newt, was already writing at his desk, seemingly recording something.

The master of magical beasts is completely immersed in his own world and pays no attention to other people's affairs.

It was hot outside, but the private room was quiet and comfortable.

a long time.

After Dumbledore stopped talking, Eno did not express his thoughts immediately.

It was obvious that the old headmaster did not intend to give up on Harry, or in other words, he did not want to give up on anyone. I still want to give Harry a chance, a chance to be one-on-one with Voldemort.

In the face of this great love, Ino can't stop it, and he won't stop it either.

This is like one of the world's top ten ideological and philosophical paradoxes proposed by the famous English theorist Philip Parford in 1971: the trolley problem.

A speeding tram has five people in front of the original track. If it changes track, these five people can be saved. However, after the track change, there was someone on the other track, but only one person.

Either save one or five.

This question has been bothering many people.

At this moment, Dumbledore gave the answer. Although he knew clearly that Tom would cause massacre after his resurrection, he still chose to save Harry.

Just like the trolley problem, as the driver, Dumbledore did not change the track to sacrifice the innocent person, but he also did not give up the five people in front.

In this case, Dumbledore chose to jump out of the car and use his own power to stop the speeding tram.

Perhaps this seems impossible to Muggles, but the purpose of magic seems to be to make the impossible possible.

After thinking about all this, Ino was very emotional.

"Professor! I may not be able to promise anything else, but as long as I am at Hogwarts, I will do my best to ensure the safety of the castle."

"I've known this for a long time!" Dumbledore blinked, seemingly not surprised at all by this promise.

Hearing this, Ino smiled nonchalantly.

It was obvious that Dumbledore still had something to hide from him, but it didn't matter, everyone had their own secrets.

…

On the other hand, as time goes by.

The competition outside has become more and more intense, and the confrontation has become more cruel.

The Bulgarian team seemed to be born with tenacity. After the score reached 120:0, they found that their previous strategy had failed.

But even so, they did not have any negative emotions, and immediately changed their strategy and began to join the battle for the Quaffle.

Their efforts were not in vain. After a fierce battle, the points finally reached 130:10.

It seemed that they had broken through 0 points, but in the eyes of many people, Ireland had already sealed the victory.

"The young men from Bulgaria are very brave and tenacious!" Fudge praised with a beaming face.

Due to some historical issues, Ireland has always been a territory under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Magic in England.

Unlike Fudge, who was happy, the Bulgarian Minister of Magic looked ugly. He couldn't figure out why he was so hesitant.

If the Bulgarian team changes when the opponent leads by 70 points, it will still have a fighting chance.

But now, since they are all 130 points ahead, it is better to break the boat, give up meaningless interference and defense, and help Krum capture the Golden Snitch.

The current change seems to be resistance, but it is better to say that it is to survive and play a little longer.

At this time, Ludo's voice resounded through the stadium again.

"Look! Lynch found the Golden Snitch! Ireland should have known about the Golden Snitch long ago."

In fact, without Ludo's explanation, the Bulgarian players present knew that they were fooled.

...

Perhaps many things were destined long ago.

Unlike the original story, although this game was exciting, it still did not allow the Bulgarian team to win.

Two hours after the game.

Krum-Wronski faked and passed the Irish seeker Lynch, and caught the Golden Snitch amid cheers.

The whistle sounded, and the score was fixed at 170:160.

The Irish team won the 422nd Quidditch World Cup with a slight difference of 10 points.

The ten-point gap made many fans who supported the Bulgarian team dissatisfied.

Although anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is the best outcome, after all, the gap between the two sides is so big, and the gap will only get bigger and bigger if the game continues.

Instead of widening the score gap, it is better to lose decently like now.

But smart people are always in the minority.

There seemed to be more and more dissatisfied fans, and a kind of restlessness was also gradually spreading.

The situation seemed a little out of control.

The Bulgarian Minister of Magic turned his head in surprise. He didn't understand what Fudge was selling.

If no measures were taken at the moment, it would be a disaster if a riot broke out.

However, Fudge responded with a smile, a smile of confidence.

When the Bulgarian Minister of Magic was puzzled, the door of the box was pushed open from the outside.
