One person above Qing Huang Ting

Chapter 257 Durmstrang Magic Ship
blah blah, blah, blah

There was a burst of iron plates rubbing against the ground from the shadows. Professor Moody walked out of the shadows on crutches. His eyes under the light were cold and solemn, the opposite of the enthusiasm just now.

Hermione was startled when she saw Hu Xiuwu looking behind her and calling out Professor Moody's name again, but now she didn't dare to hide from Hu Xiuwu, so she could only retreat to the side in a panic.

"Professor Moody!"

Moody, leaning on crutches, was not surprised by their arrival: "You are too slow."

Hu Xiuwu said, "I always have to find an excuse. If you notify me in advance, it won't be so troublesome."

At the dance party, Moody's magic eye, which can see through invisibility and see-through, always swept towards Hu Xiuwu indistinctly.

But after the previous fight, Moody had discovered that the reason why his sneak attack failed was because Hu Xiuwu had keen senses and could detect the gaze of the magic eye.

But he did it anyway, and made it clear that he was seducing him, so between dancing with Hermione, Hu Xiuwu swept to the source of the magic eye's gaze, only to find that Moody quietly left the side door of the auditorium.

Before leaving, he gave Hu Xiuwu a meaningful look.

So, Hu Xiuwu took the opportunity to pull Hermione over with him.

"I didn't intend to invite you."

Moody's tone was flat and his speech was endless, but Hu Xiuwu understood it in seconds and glanced sideways, beside Hermione, who was ignorant and at a loss.

Sure enough, was it because of Hermione?
"Let's go, time is running out, there's not much time left for the dance, let's talk on the way."

Moody turned his head and left, leaving only Hu Xiuwu and Hermione.

Hu Xiuwu smiled and said, "How about it, are you interested in joining an adventure?"

It turned out to be an adventure, not the kind of adventure she thought, Hermione, Hermione, what were you thinking about.

The villain in Hermione's heart slapped her cheeks with shame, making Hermione's face outside blushed:
"Okay, okay."

Although she was still a little shy, Hermione still carried the horns of her skirt and followed behind Hu Xiuwu and Moody.

As a student of Gryffindor, how could he refuse the invitation to take risks.

Hu Xiuwu patted Hermione on the shoulder. From Hermione's shoulder, the dress on her body changed into jeans, a small vest, and even the small dress shoes under her feet became leather boots.

The fairy that Cinderella met at midnight became a fairy, so she changed from a gorgeous princess to a heroic and energetic girl explorer.

"thanks,"

Hermione turned around in circles. As a Western girl, although she was only 14 years old, her figure was still bumpy. Even Hu Xiuwu admitted that Chen Duo's appearance was comparable to Hermione's when she was 14 years old, but her figure was far away. It's not as good as Hermione's. Westerners are indeed unique in this respect.

"But isn't this a bit too formal, where are we going?"

It feels like this suit is worn for jungle adventures. Are you going to the forbidden forest?
Hermione tugged at the close-fitting vest and guessed curiously,

"Cough, I don't know, let Professor Moody explain."

Hu Xiuwu coughed, embarrassed to say that it was just because of his own bad taste, imitating a certain countess who was suspected of being in a storm and gave Hermione a set, who made him think that everything except Chen Duo's clothes was acceptable. Uniform, and only this suit is suitable for sports.

Not to mention, the stubborn and brave Hermione, wearing this dress, does have the feeling of Earl Crawford.

Walking in the silent corridor, Moody spoke his plan.

He'd been secretly investigating the truth since Harry's name was spat out by the Goblet of Fire, with little success, and the Christmas Ball was the perfect opportunity.

Anyone from either side will be present, and take this opportunity to search for the suspect he most suspects.

After listening to Moody's explanation, Hu Xiuwu said, "You suspect that the principal of Durmstrang cast Harry's name in."

"Igor Karkaroff, the headmaster of Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, was a former Death Eater, and I was the one who got him into Azkaban,"

"He has a criminal record, plus the circumstances of the day he entered the auditorium."

"Auditorium?" Hu Xiuwu recalled the situation that day, "Is it the time when there was a sudden lightning and thunder on the starry sky dome of the auditorium that day?"

"Acridine!" Hermione suddenly screamed, thinking of the records in the book, "I remembered, "Hogwarts, a school history" records that the starry sky at Hogwarts can judge who enters the auditorium. Are people hostile to Hogwarts, so if hostile people enter the Great Hall, the dome will flash and thunder?"

Moody sighed: "That's right, but it's a pity if this is a class, or I'll give you extra points, Miss Granger."

"Yes, as long as someone who is hostile to Hogwarts enters the auditorium, the auditorium will flash and thunder in the stars to remind the staff."

"Karkaroff was hostile to Hogwarts, and then someone threw Harry Potter's name into the Goblet of Fire. There is such a coincidence in the world."

Although Harry and Ron's previous attitude towards her made Hermione very upset, the two of them are still her most important friends, Hermione said anxiously:

"Then why don't we get Harry over here?"

Moody explained: "Since Harry is the target of the conspiracy, he is also the focus of the people hiding in the shadows, and he is also the hero of the ball. conspirators discovered."

"No matter how careful I am, there is a risk of exposure afterwards. If I get too close to Harry, if I arouse their suspicion, worrying that Harry knows the truth, and then takes the risk, Harry will be in danger."

"But Harry needs to know the truth, so I need you to tell Harry."

Moody intends to search Karkaroff today. Regardless of whether Karkaroff is the real murderer or not, he will put on a look like he is investigating to the end, and invite people behind the scenes to silence him.

If he can fight back, then everyone will be happy, if he fails, then there needs to be someone to help Harry rule out certain suspects.

As the messenger in the middle, the first person Moody saw was actually Ron,

Ron's roots are red, his parents are Moody's old acquaintances, and all his brothers are good, so Moody believes in his character, and Ron and Harry are in the same bedroom again, which is convenient for communicating.

But Ron was immersed in the dance, trying to talk to Fleur again, always looking at the radiant Hermione with a nonchalant look, and was so busy that he didn't notice him at all.

Moody still had some headaches, how to take him away quietly, but with Ron's line of sight, he noticed Hermione and Hu Xiuwu.

Ron can't do it, so can Hermione.

She is also Harry's friend and can help spread the word, and with Hu Xiuwu by her side, he doesn't have to worry about how to lead them out, and the Oriental is the least suspect, even if Hu Xiuwu knows his For this purpose, he could also lure Hu Xiuwu into keeping him secret with a reward that he could not refuse.

After changing the goal, things became simpler. Moody only needed to stare at Hu Xiuwu desperately, and Hu Xiuwu could naturally accept his hints.

This is the easiest, most direct, and most covert way, but it is to examine Hu Xiuwu's comprehension to see if he can comprehend Moody's hints.

Fortunately, in the end, Hu Xiuwu realized his hint, and took Hermione away in an ambiguous way without causing suspicion from others.

Just now, Moody went out early, and he didn't just wait for Hu Xiuwu and Hermione. He also took time to go to the Gryffindor common room and used the Flying Spell to store Hermione's wand in the girls' dormitory. Summoned out.

How could a wizard adventure without a wand, Hermione excitedly took her own wand.

Not only that, Moody also prepared two brooms to hide in the grass. Although there was one more Hu Xiuwu on this trip, fortunately Hu Xiuwu didn't have to worry about them.

Hermione and Moody skillfully stepped on their brooms, kicked their feet, and rose from the ground. A thin line flew out beside Hu Xiuwu, and the thin line gradually expanded into a big brocade snake, and the moonflower was sprinkled on it, like an ancient cloud of brocade. As bright as the morning glow, the brocade pattern is gorgeous.

When he was flying with Hu Xiuwu on his back, Hu Xiuwu was like an immortal traveling with Caixia on his back.

Hu Xiuwu sighed with emotion: Yujingzi's flight is becoming more and more fashionable, but Yujingzi's strength is not enough.

Time was tense, and the three of them flew to the shore of Black Lake. The three-masted sailboat of Durmstrang School of Magic stayed on the pier by Black Lake.

The whole ship is like a fat crescent moon after fifteen years. The bridge at the stern does not look like a ship at all, but rather like a miniature castle that is forcibly connected to the ship, which does not match the style of a sailboat at all.

If there is no magical power, such a mechanically unbalanced ship will be overturned by a strong wind at sea. Oh, by the way, this ship is a diving ship.

The hull is not quite in line with engineering mechanics, but it does not deny that this ship is indeed beautiful, just like Peter Pan's small spaceship in a fairy tale.

However, under the surface of the fairy tale fantasy, but cruel reality.

"Be careful, Durmstrang is teaching black magic to students, and there will definitely be traps and protections in there."

After Moody's explanation just now, Hermione felt that she had a great responsibility. After hearing Moody's advice, she nodded solemnly. She was not Harry and Ron. .

Moody waved his wand and made the side of the ship lower the gangway, and then walked up first. Hu Xiuwu ordered Hermione to walk in front, and he cut himself behind. Hermione's task was to act as an eye, and she did not need her to fight.
