The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 391 Harry Potter
This day was Halloween, and a large group of live bats were flying around the enchanted ceiling, but the auditorium was not as lively as the hall. What if, nothing else, who put the Goblet of Fire in the hall instead of the hall?

Throughout the day, the foyer was full of onlookers, and every time a brave man cast his name to the Goblet of Fire, the students in the foyer would burst into applause.

When Viktor Krum signed up, there was a uniform "Krum" in the hall, as if Krum was a student at Hogwarts.

You must know that when Cedric signed up, the welcome was not so enthusiastic.

It was getting dark, and the students in the hall became a little anxious.

They asked each other, and finally they determined the information they wanted to know. Esmeralda Drizzt only made a quick appearance at breakfast, but she didn't sign up, she just brought the Weasley twins gone.

Doubts gradually arose in many people's hearts, why hasn't Drizzt signed up yet?Some people had other thoughts, thinking that Drizzt was afraid to sign up for fear of scratching her pretty face.

At about five o'clock in the evening, more candles were lit in the hall and in the foyer, when at last Ada reappeared in the hall.Ada was flanked by Fred and George, two bare-jawed brothers who were no longer older versions.

Ada did not walk towards the Goblet of Fire, but stood two or three steps away from the age line. She took out a note from her pocket, on which her name and school were written in elegant handwriting.

After rolling the note into a ball, Ada first looked back at the twins with disgust in his eyes, then turned around and threw it away.The ball of paper let go, drew a graceful arc in the air, and just fell into the blue-white flame of the Goblet of Fire.

Loud applause and cheers erupted in the foyer, and Beauxbaton students who passed by were a little puzzled. Wasn't it just a girl who signed up for the competition? Why are they so excited?redneck...

At around 05:30, the banquet began, and as the Halloween dinner began, the Goblet of Fire was moved from the foyer to an empty table at the front of the auditorium.

The dishes for the dinner were still carefully prepared by the house elf, and there was no slack in the slightest because of the two consecutive dinners, but the elf's painstaking efforts were let down by the students, even Ron, the king of cooking, was a little tasteless, let alone other people .

The students kept looking up, fidgeting, and every face showed anxious expressions. They were all waiting for the start of the selection, and wanted to know who was selected as the warrior.

Finally, amid the eager anticipation of the students, the golden plate was removed, and Dumbledore stood up.Seeing his headmaster standing up, the auditorium that was still buzzing just now became completely silent, and a pin drop could be heard.

The Goblet of Fire was about to make a decision, and the chosen ones would become the warriors of the Triwizard Tournament, and they would receive initial guidance in the small room behind the auditorium.

The candles in the auditorium were half extinguished by Dumbledore, and the auditorium suddenly fell into a semi-dark state, which added a bit of mystery and made the students have more expectations for the selection of warriors.

The Goblet of Fire burst out with dazzling light, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. The blue-white flame bursting out sparks was the only focus of the audience.

Everyone is watching the Goblet of Fire, and everyone knows that the time is coming and the champion will be born.

The flame in the goblet suddenly turned red again, and crackling sparks burst out.Then, a tongue of flame shot into the air, and from it flew a piece of charred parchment.

When Dumbledore caught the parchment that flew out, the flames of the wooden goblet returned to blue and white, and all the people in the auditorium held their breath, waiting for the exciting moment and the announcement of the warrior.

"The Champion of Durmstrang," said Dumbledore, clearly and emphatically, "is Viktor Krum."

Applause and cheers swept the auditorium. No one thought it was strange that Krum was the warrior of Durmstrang. Everyone took it for granted.

Viktor Krum left the Slytherin table and walked listlessly into the room behind the teachers' bench.

The applause and cheers gradually subsided, and the Goblet of Fire spit out a piece of parchment again, and Dumbledore reached out to take it.

"The champion of Beauxbatons," said Dumbledore, "is Fleur Delacour!"

Fleur Delacour rose gracefully and walked lightly between the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff tables.It's just that Beauxbaton students didn't seem to have a particularly positive reaction to Furong's election.

Twelve or thirteen students of Beauxbatons applauded in a perfunctory way, and two girls who failed the selection even cried sadly.Of these people, only Hector was actually applauding, probably happier than himself being elected.

When Fleur Delacour also entered the adjoining room, the auditorium fell silent again, and this time the silence was filled with intense excitement.Now it's the turn of the Hogwarts warriors...

At the long table in Gryffindor, Fred, who had given up his fantasy, asked in a low voice, "Ada, if the candidate for the warrior is not you, who do you want?"

Hearing the question, Angelina, Alia, and Lee Jordan also came over. They thought they would hear the name of Cedric Diggory from Ada's mouth, but Ada just said confidently: " Who but me!"

At this moment, the Goblet of Fire turned red again, sparks splattered, and the tongue of fire soared high into the air, and Dumbledore drew a third parchment from the tip of the tongue.

"The Champion of Hogwarts," said Dumbledore loudly, "is Esmeralda Drizzt!"

There was an abnormal silence in the auditorium at first, everyone thought in their hearts, "It really is her", and then everyone remembered to applaud and shout, the sound was deafening.

The Gryffindors jumped up and down excitedly, screaming, stomping, and making noise in every way they could think of.

The students of Durmstrang and Beauxbatons were full of disbelief. They couldn't understand why these Hogwarts students were so excited, and why most of them had "you are dead" written on their faces. what happened?

It can't be blamed for the ignorance of the students of these two schools. After all, Ida is far behind Viktor Krum's name.Ada's name has only appeared in the British "Daily Prophet". Unless you pay special attention to her, you don't know who she is at all.

Beauxbaton's students are better, at least some of them know that Ada belongs to the Rozier family, but that's all.Durmstrang's students don't know at all, and they don't know that their school has other connections with Ada.

Amidst the deafening noise, Ada stood up and casually lowered her hands to signal everyone to calm down.The students in the auditorium also showed face to the female student council chairperson, and immediately stopped their noise-making behavior.

Under the surprised eyes of Durmstrang and Beauxbaton students, Ada seemed to be low-key, but actually walked into the next room very high-key.The Headmaster gave Ada a mischievous wink as he passed Dumbledore.

Dumbledore happily announced that all the warriors had been selected, and also announced the official start of the Triwizard Tournament.However, after Dumbledore said a few words, he suddenly stopped talking, and everyone followed his gaze——

The flame of the goblet turned red again, and sparks burst out. This is a phenomenon that only occurs when the warriors are elected, but aren't all the warriors selected? Why does this phenomenon still appear in the Goblet of Fire?
Everyone in the auditorium was stunned, the three principals, two senior officials of the Ministry of Magic, and everyone was stunned by the flame of the Goblet of Fire changing color again.

Dumbledore stretched out his slender hand subconsciously, and another note flew out of the Goblet of Fire, just in time to land in his hand.

As we all know, wizards in the wizarding world are not very good at mathematics. Hogwarts said that there are four colleges, but there are actually five.Then it is normal for the Triwizard Tournament to have four warriors participating, and there is nothing to be surprised about.

The note in Dumbledore's hand is obviously the fourth warrior, who may be the representative of Azkaban, or the player who was unwilling to be lonely in the Goblet of Fire.

All in all, all in all, this year's Triwizard Tournament, the number of warriors is no longer three, but four.

Dumbledore looked at the parchment in his hand, staring at the names on the parchment, while the rest of the hall kept staring at Dumbledore.There was a long silence, what seemed like a century, and then Dumbledore read aloud—

"Harry Potter."

Everyone in the Great Hall turned to look at Harry Potter, in disbelief at the name they heard.

Under everyone's gaze, Harry sat down silently, trying to reduce his sense of existence.Harry felt that he must be dreaming, just now he was still cheering and shouting for Ada to become a warrior, how could he become a warrior now?

No applause.A hum began to fill the auditorium, as if countless angry bees were chirping, and the dissatisfaction of the students was brewing.

"He cheated!"

"He's only 14 years old!"
