Chapter 524 Triwizard Tournament

When Li Zhuoguang happily stuffed the Kirin into the box and took it away, Dumbledore looked at Newt. Newt spread his hands and said, "You don't blame me for that. Although their last name is Li, no one in the East directly calls them the Li family. I couldn't think of it for a while."

"By the way, how is their family's reputation in the local area?"

Newt shook his head: "I don't know, it's too mysterious, and they basically don't communicate with the outside world. Some people say that their ancestors were Zou Yan's apprentices, and some people say that members of the Li family once changed their names to Kong Bo and cultivated Chinese Fireball.

But everyone recognized that their family was powerful, and there were even rumors that they had developed a secret method that could transform wizards with the blood of magical animals, and also give magical animals the ability to cast spells.

After the incident in 1930, the Magic Alliance asked the Li family to help take care of the unicorns before the election. Firstly, because the origin of unicorns was in the east, and secondly because of their power. "

Having said this, Newt shook his head with an ugly face: "That's true, but the previous heads of the Li family were all adult wizards. The heads of this generation are only twelve or thirteen years old. I'm afraid this year will not go well. , I can only trouble you, Professor."

Dumbledore just smiled: "Not necessarily, I might not need to do it."

Newt didn't know why, but thought it was because Hogwarts' security procedures were well done. Not long after, a big bird landed in front of the window sill of the principal's office. Dumbledore looked at the bird with some confusion.

Although wizards all like to use owls to deliver messages, some wizards still prefer to use other means. For example, the macaw parked in front of his window sill is the messenger that wizards in South America like to use.

Dumbledore opened the window, took the letter from the macaw, opened it and scanned it quickly, his face calmed down. Turning to look at Newt: "It seems like things are in some trouble."

Then, he handed the letter to Newt. Newt took the letter and exclaimed: "This?! What did they think?"

"It seems that everyone knows about Mr. Li's studies at Hogwarts."

Li Zhuoguang returned to the hall with his suitcase. It happened that Malfoy was still dining and had not left. Li Zhuoguang said directly to him: "Write a letter home and ask the Daily Prophet to publish the news that I have a unicorn in my hand."

"What?"

"The new election for the chairman of the Magic Alliance is about to begin. The way of the election is to let the unicorn make a choice. Now that unicorn is in my hand, and I will protect it until the election begins. You let the "Daily Prophet" "Publish this news."

Malfoy was overjoyed when he heard this. Li Zhuoguang was involved in a major international event. As the other party's little... right-hand man, Malfoy also felt honored.

But soon, the joy in his heart disappeared. Although Malfoy can be stupid occasionally, he is not really stupid. He cautiously said to Li Zhuoguang: "Shouldn't this kind of thing be hidden? I heard that someone had done something to Qilin decades ago, and it was the first generation Dark Lord Glinde who did it. fertile."

Li Zhuoguang looked at Malfoy: "Why do you even know about this?"

Malfoy said matter-of-factly: "That incident was too big. The whole world knows about it, and all pure-blood families have records about that incident."

"Then tell me."

Under Malfoy's nagging talk, Li Zhuoguang roughly understood what had happened before: "So, that accident was solved by Dumbledore and Newt Scamander?"

Malfoy nodded: "Yes. It was precisely because of that incident that Grindelwald's reputation plummeted."

Li Zhuoguang shook his head after hearing this, and became more and more suspicious that the world of his mission was different from the original work. If there was such an important thing, why was it not mentioned in the original work? At first glance, it looks like a crappy design.

But he didn't bother to care. He didn't care whether the person who could become the chairman of the Magic Alliance was a human or a dog. He just wanted many wizards with evil intentions to come to Qilin and use it as a good medicine to cure his illness.

Today is Friday. After dinner, Li Zhuoguang went to the Requirement Room to hold a cram school as usual. But today, everyone was stopped by the principal, saying that there was something important to notify.

Li Zhuoguang was a little confused. The most satisfying thing about Hogwarts was that there were no classes. There were basically only two classes every school year. The first time is the beginning of school, and the second time is the end of term. Today Dumbledore came out to announce something. This was never done in the original novel.

Dumbledore stood up from the staff seat: "There is a short notice. The Quidditch match for this school year has been cancelled."

Immediately, the students of the four houses howled. The Quidditch match between the four houses was almost their main form of entertainment in the school.

Dumbledore pressed his palms to signal everyone to be quiet. After everyone calmed down, Dumbledore then announced: "The Triwizard Tournament will be held this year, and the venue will be in our school."

The hall suddenly fell silent, but then there was the sound of discussions one after another. For a young wizard who comes from a wizarding family, the news of the resumption of the Triwizard Tournament is much more exciting than the cancellation of the Quidditch competition.

Li Zhuoguang, who was sitting in his seat, was numb. What is this? Isn't this a fourth grade plot? Why is it so early?

After announcing this, Dumbledore did not let the students disperse. Instead, he asked everyone to wait for a while. As for what they were waiting for, he did not say clearly. In order to take care of everyone's emotions, he also ordered the kitchen to prepare desserts and put them on the long table.

In fact, the little wizards did not feel bored waiting. After all, the news was so exciting that they were still in an excited state and kept talking about everything about the Triwizard Tournament.

After a while, the door of the hall was pushed open, and Snape and several people walked into the hall. Snape, who was walking in front, had an extremely ugly face and walked very fast, as if someone behind him was mopping shit and chasing him.

Walking behind Snape were two officials from the Ministry of Magic.

After the two officials from the Ministry of Magic came to the hall, they first greeted Dumbledore, and then introduced themselves. These two people are Barty Crouch and Ludo Bagman, just like in the original book.

I think it should be the two of them. After all, one is the Director of the International Magical Exchange and Cooperation Department, and the other is the Director of the Sports and Physical Education Department of the Ministry of Magic. It is appropriate for them to represent the Ministry of Magic.

And Li Zhuoguang also knew why Snape looked so bad.

Igor Karkaroff was a Death Eater who was captured and sent to Azkaban by Mad-Eye Moody after six months of pursuit.

When Karkaroff was tried, it was already after the fall of Voldemort, and he faced life imprisonment in Azkaban, but he reached an agreement with Crouch, the then Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, to give out the names of other Death Eaters at the Magical Law Council as a condition for his release.

He naturally betrayed his accomplices and gave out other Death Eaters, including Snape. In exchange for the reward of exemption from punishment, but he could not stay in the British Isles, so he had to go to other countries and finally became the principal of Durmstrang School of Magic.

But Crouch Jr. was not much better. He hunted down Death Eaters and eventually found out that his son was also a Death Eater. Because of this incident, he lost the election for Minister of Magic to Fudge, a good-for-nothing.

He was also transferred from the powerful Department of Magical Law Enforcement to the Department of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation.
