Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs

Dumbledore looked at Lu Ke thoughtfully.

He looked at Lu Ke, countless doubts flashed through his heart.

Of course Lu Ke would not do this, so the question is, among those who can do this, which one did it and what was his purpose.

While Dumbledore was distracted, he heard the sound of flames rising from the Goblet of Fire again.

Dumbledore reached out and took another note that erupted from the flames.

"Harry Potter..."

Dumbledore and Luke exchanged meaningful looks.

Then he sighed and looked up at the Gryffindor table.

"Harry Potter, come here."

Harry was in a state of shock and anger when he explained to the students around him that he had never thrown his name into the Goblet of Fire, but no one believed him except Ron and Hermione.

Harry came to Dumbledore reluctantly and still couldn't help explaining.

But Dumbledore stopped him and took Luke and Harry into a small side room.

Here, the warriors from the three previously selected schools have been waiting for a long time.

In addition, the other four referees also walked in.

They huddled together, the three warriors looked confused, all the referees looked gloomy, Harry looked panicked, and only Lu Ke looked calm.

He glanced at the four referees besides Dumbledore, who were the most likely to do anything.

Since Moody has not been replaced, the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor who is most likely to have problems at Hogwarts will be fine, and the only ones who can cause problems are these four outsiders.

Of course they could handle this easily, and they were even responsible for the production of the Goblet of Fire itself.

The only question is who.

"what happened?"

Fleur spoke first, the atmosphere in the room was too weird.

Ludo Bagman was the first to speak: "Let me introduce to you the fourth warrior of the Triwizard Tournament..."

When he pointed at Lu Ke, Lu Ke suddenly interrupted him: "I abstain."

Everyone was stunned for a moment.

Lu Ke smiled: "In the competition between three schools, each school has a warrior. This is fair. If Hogwarts has two or even three warriors, it would be too much. I will abstain."

Harry glanced at Lu Ke blankly.

He knew what Lu Ke was talking about. In this case, he would also have to abstain.

But Harry didn't want to give up.

But before he said anything, no one was looking at him.

The Hogwarts professors entered the small room, which was now even more crowded.

"We absolutely cannot allow Harry and Lu Ke to participate in the competition. This is the result of someone's deliberate arrangement. That person has evil intentions."

Snape glanced at Harry with a sullen expression, then faced Dumbledore.

Harry remembered with some displeasure that Snape had not visited him all summer.

Before Dumbledore could say anything, Madame Maxime and Karkaroff spoke in support.

Just like what Lu Ke said, there can only be three warriors in the Triwizard Tournament, representing the three participating magic schools. This is to ensure fairness. When there are more than one warrior in Hogwarts, the so-called fairness is No longer exists.

They even threatened to leave now, ending the game before it even started.

But of course they don't want to leave just yet.

In order for the competition to be held, they fought countless arguments over a long period of time, convinced countless people who could not be convinced, and paid a long time and heavy price.

The games must be held, the only question is that they must have a fair chance of winning.

Instead of Hogwarts having three champions like now, they only have one.

That's just ridiculous.

Ludo Bagman and Barty Crouch's opinions became particularly important, but Ludo Bagman didn't say a single word that had a clear meaning.

Barty Crouch, to everyone's surprise, insisted that the Goblet of Fire's choice should be upheld.

He never joined the quarrel, and kept sitting in the shadow of the backlight, his face blurred.

Lu Ke glanced at him thoughtfully.

Then he said: "Then if I abstain, it should be within the normal rules, right?"

This drew a roar of approval. Madame Maxime and Karkaroff were obviously happy that Hogwarts had one less warrior, and the professors at Hogwarts were happy that Lu Ke knew how dangerous this game was, and It would have been unfair for Hogwarts to have more warriors.

But this time it was Barty Crouch who spoke up.

"Since you voluntarily put your name into the Goblet of Fire, you must continue to participate in the competition until the end. This is a magical contract that cannot be violated."

Lu Ke smiled: "But everyone knows that I did not voluntarily put my name into the Goblet of Fire."

Barty Crouch responded with silence, as if he felt that all that needed to be said had been said.

Lu Ke turned around and looked at Dumbledore: "There are five referees here. They are meant to make decisions when disagreements arise. Let's vote now."

Madame Maxime and Karkaroff immediately spoke out in support.

But it was still Barty Crouch who made the final decision: "This matter cannot be changed. The flame in the Goblet of Fire has been extinguished. Unless the game is officially over, no warrior can not participate in the game."

Lu Ke gave up completely.

He did know very little about the Goblet of Fire, but just looking at the expressions of the three principals, Lu Ke knew that this must be the truth.

So after a long period of boring quarrels and mutual accusations, everyone accepted the fact that Lu Ke and Harry were warriors.

Lu Ke has been looking at Barty Crouch, but he can never see his expression, and even if he did something, no one would find it strange.

The only question is why Harry Potter is involved.

Finally, all disagreements were over, and Ludo Bagman told them what their first test would be.

That means you can't tell them.

"This is to test your ability to face the unknown."

Lu Ke was absent-minded. He was still observing everyone here. Theoretically, the person who dragged Harry Potter into this matter was in this small room.

But Lu Ke didn't see anyone showing any signs of being suspicious at all.

Finally, Ludo Bagman announced that the first test would be in two weeks, and then Madame Maxime and Karkaroff left with their warriors looking gloomy.

Barty Crouch wants to return to the Ministry of Magic to continue working, but Ludo Bagman stays. He likes to stay at Hogwarts. As for work, in his opinion, he can take a break.
