a certain scientific harry potter

Like those elves in the nursing home, they are very grateful to Harry now.

Harry had talked about wanting them to work with Dobby, but they didn't, which was definitely a surprise for the elves.

Driven by this gratitude, they also quickly accepted the new system of 'punching to work'.

This is actually an important principle for solving the problem of house elves, that is, they must not be provoked to rebellion.

The status quo of elves is determined by the two groups of wizards and elves, and changing this status quo will undoubtedly damage the vested interests of most wizards.

Therefore, at least in the initial stage of the change, the wizards will definitely form an organized opposition. If the elves cannot even get the support at this time, then the final result will only be failure!

"Think differently... and then put it into action? That's right, Harry, you are so right! If you want to solve the problems of the house elves, this is indeed the way to go!" Savoring Harry's words carefully, hey Min suddenly became extremely excited.

If no one else was around at this time, she would definitely hug Harry and kiss him hard.

She has always wanted to do something for the house-elves, especially after learning about Dobby's encounter with Kreacher, and Harry's evaluation of her thoughts has always been 'watch more'.

However, after several years of continuous observation, Hermione discovered to her dismay that it was really extremely difficult to fundamentally change the situation of the house elves.

Not only wizards would object, even the house-elves themselves would not agree... What Kreacher said to Hermione that day is still like a knife to this day, and it makes her ache when she thinks about it.

However, Harry now gave her hope and helped her come up with a really effective solution!

"It can only be you," Hermione looked at Harry excitedly, with both joy and pride in her eyes, "If it were someone else, I would definitely not be able to come up with such a good solution!"

"It's actually a good way to think about it, but most people will get stuck on the first step of 'empathy'." Harry shook his head and sighed softly, "After all... people don't care about someone who has nothing to do with them. group."

"Harry, why don't you..." Hearing the same words from Harry's mouth, which were exactly the same as Luna's before, Hermione couldn't help being a little surprised for a moment.

"He'll help the house-elves just because you want to help them." Luna told the truth straight to the point, "Besides..."

"Other than that, the only one I'm willing to offer to help... is Dobby." Harry said indifferently, making no secret of his discrimination.

The entire British wizarding world, counting all the individuals who can be called 'people', is just a small society with a total number of less than [-].

In such a small society, Harry has the time and energy to judge the relationship between the two parties only for individuals, and there is no need to divide them into specific groups.

Just like the house elves, those who are willing to accept help, Harry can naturally lend a helping hand; those who are not willing to accept, he can also bring along according to Hermione's wishes... As for those who would rather die than make changes, haha If you eat too many brain fragments, you will take care of them~

Bringing a group of guys who have their own ideas and don't want to rebel to rebel, how can this end be better?

"Is that so..." Hermione lowered her head in frustration, her fingers were tangled together.

She will feel sweet because of Harry's "House and Bird", but she will also feel sad for the group of house elves.

They are indeed worthy of sympathy, but for those elves who refuse to accept change... Are they really worthy of Harry's help?

The heavy rain outside the castle was pounding heavily on the windows, and amidst Hermione's troubled meditation, the school-opening dinner finally came to an end.

"Okay!" Dumbledore stood up again after an attention-grabbing call, and looked at everyone with a smile, "Now that we are all fed and drunk, I must appeal to everyone's attention again to announce a few announcements. "

"Mr. Filch, the janitor, wants me to tell you that the number of prohibited items in the castle has increased a lot this year, including screaming Bludgers, combo boomerangs, and a total of 430 seven items. Those who are interested can hold the master house Check the product list."

When he said this, Dumbledore deliberately glanced in Harry's direction, and most of the other professors on the teaching bench also cast bitter glances at Harry...including Filch himself~

And Harry is extremely speechless now, if you announce the contraband, just announce it properly, what's the matter with checking the list of goods in my store?

Besides, those joke products were made by the Weasley brothers themselves, so why should I blame them in the end?

"In addition, as before, the Forbidden Forest on the other side of the venue is strictly forbidden for any students to enter. But for Hogsmeade Village, we lowered the patronage limit to the second grade this year, and added an extra-curricular practical activity. "

After the students whispered to each other for a while, Dumbledore continued: "Hogsmeade Village will open a new nursing home this year, and there will be many senior wizards who are highly respected and respected. Seniors volunteering. I hope you enjoy it and learn something that school can’t teach you.”

Dumbledore's words caused a lot of noise at the scene. Many people knew about the new nursing home in Hogsmeade, but they didn't expect that it would have something to do with the school.

Going there to work as a volunteer for the old wizards is indifferent to some students, but for some pampered people who claim to be noble, it is definitely a humiliation of humiliation.

"Please be quiet!" Dumbledore stopped the discussions at the scene with a loud curse, "I know you may have many doubts this time, but I will continue to announce the next thing."

"I regret to inform you that there will be no House Cup Quidditch competition this year!"

hum~

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an even greater commotion at the scene than before.

Chapter 580 The Triwizard Contest for Hegemony, Moody Appears

"Quiet, please be quiet!"

Feeling that there seemed to be a little excitement at the scene, Dumbledore hurriedly stopped it again.

"Listen, gentlemen, we are no longer holding Quidditch tournaments because a big event will start in October and continue throughout the school year," said Dumbledore loudly. "It will take up a lot of teachers' time and Energy, but I'm sure you'll all have a lot of fun doing it!"

Seeing that his speech had successfully captured the interest of the students, Dumbledore continued to announce with a smile: "I am very happy to tell you that Hogwarts will hold the Triwizard Tournament this year!"

"You're kidding!" Fred exploded when he heard Dumbledore say that.

Not only him, many students at the scene at the moment thought this way, and many of them laughed out of excitement.

Young wizards with family backgrounds know more or less about the Triwizard Tournament, and they naturally have extremely eager expectations for this traditional event that has been suspended for centuries.

"The Triwizard Tournament was founded about 700 years ago. It is a friendly competition between the three largest magic schools in Europe, but it has been interrupted for a long time."

Dumbledore briefly introduced the general situation and history of the competition, and finally announced excitedly: "Now, our Department of International Magical Cooperation and Department of Magical Sports in the Ministry of Magic thinks that the time is ripe to try again! This summer we did A lot of work to make sure that every single warrior's life is not in danger."

"In October, the Headmasters of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, will lead their handpicked contenders, and the selection of the warriors will take place on Halloween. An impartial referee will decide which students are best qualified to participate Competition, to win honors for your school, and at the same time, you have a bonus of [-] galleons for yourself!"

At this point, the atmosphere on the scene completely exploded. There are many people like Fred who fantasize about becoming a warrior. At this moment, countless pairs of eyes are staring at Dumbledore enthusiastically.

But Mr. Principal's next words poured cold water on most of the people in the auditorium.

"I know you are all eager to win a trophy for your school, however, participating schools and the Ministry of Magic have agreed that there is an age cutoff for this year's competitors - 17 years old, and only students over 17 years old are allowed to enter! So I think ..."

Speaking of this, Dumbledore raised his voice, because many people were protesting angrily: "This measure is very necessary, because the project of the Tournament is still very difficult and dangerous, no matter how many precautions we take. It is impossible for students under the sixth and seventh grades to cope with that level of danger!"

"What are you kidding!" George protested, shaking his fists. "You can't do this. I'm 17 years old in four months. Why don't you let me try?!"

George's words undoubtedly represent the aspirations of many people, but in today's auditorium, the students of Eagle Academy are the most dissatisfied... because they have a big killer that can definitely win the championship!

Therefore, Terry Boot took the lead in sharply expressing his opposition: "If only wizards over the age of 17 are allowed to participate, wouldn't even Harry have a chance? I think this kind of regulation is not to ensure safety at all, but to the other two. The school is worried they can't compete with Harry!"

"That's right, Harry even passed the hell-difficult OWLs exam, and he once saved the entire school, do you think he can't handle the danger of the competition?!"

Immediately after he spoke was Michael Kona, who was also in the fourth grade. He was one of the few students from the outer courtyard who would receive a high evaluation from Snape. Shocked to heaven.

"Some students, I appreciate your unity. In fact, I personally felt that if certain restrictions were lifted, the trophy of the Triwizard Tournament would definitely be left in Hogwarts in the end." Dumbledore said When the Hogwarts warriors were finally selected, everyone would be able to participate in the competition. Support him or her wholeheartedly."

"Finally, I want to reiterate... I will personally ensure that no underage student fools our impartial judges. So if you are under 17, I beg you not to waste your time applying!"

Along with the last paragraph, Dumbledore's eyes swept over many people, such as Harry, and the Weasley brothers, and his blue eyes kept flashing with meaningful glances.

Click!

At the same time, a thunderbolt suddenly flashed outside the auditorium, lighting up the dark night sky in an instant!

"Thunder finally? Great!!"

The old professor Tofudi jumped up from his seat the moment he saw the flashing light. He started to run out of the auditorium. The voice of one person even overwhelmed all the students present, and made everyone panic. Forget about the argument just now.

Harry said before that as long as there is lightning in the sky, his kite experiment will be considered to have started, so for the light just now, the old professor Tofudi has brought many people from the Wizarding Examinations Administration to lie down at Hogwarts for several times. God.

And Hogwarts students naturally also have a lot of curiosity about it.

"Is this the only lightning bolt? It would be great if I could see the whole process with my own eyes."

Rushing all the way to the door of the auditorium, Professor Tofudi prayed in anticipation to the dark night sky. Beside him, Professor Bubaji, who arrived later, also had the same expression.

Even though Harry had told them that he had made preparations in advance, even if they hadn't witnessed the whole process with their own eyes, they could still 'catch' the lightning in the cloud.

But for these two professors who have been waiting for a long time, only by seeing the whole process of attracting lightning with their own eyes, can this experiment be completely without regrets.

Fortunately, Harry specially prepared a backhand for this experiment, which could fully satisfy their wishes.

"Don't worry, you two, as long as the lightning strikes the first strike, there will definitely be a second strike."

Just when Harry smiled and comforted the two professors, the originally dark rainy night suddenly shone brightly again, and a long arc of electricity instantly fell from the sky, and at the same time it 'cut' the sky into pieces, it quickly split into pieces. To the kite that has been flying in the sky for a long time...

Bang!

However, at the same time when the lightning hit the kite, a sudden spell was shot into the sky instantly, and it exploded in the sky like fireworks, attracting everyone's attention, and at the same time, the thunder in the sky above the auditorium The clouds cleared away...

It also blew up Harry's kite by the way!

"This is... the weather spell? And it also has an explosion spell..."

Harry suddenly looked down the path near the auditorium, only to find a limping figure, holding a wand high at the moment!

"Mad-Eye?"

Harry's complexion gradually sank, he didn't expect Moody to arrive at this time, and even messed up his experiment!

You know, wizards really believe in 'seeing is believing', now that Harry's kite was blown up on the spot, everyone at the scene would think his experiment failed!

But looking back at Moody, he still has an attitude that has nothing to do with him.

"It's very dangerous to fly a kite in a thunderstorm like this, especially with so many people standing here~"

As if completely unaware of what he had done, Moody walked over the crowd on his own and went directly to Dumbledore.

"Albus, I'm not too late, am I?"

Chapter 590 After the experiment, frictional electrification

"It's not too late at all, you came just in time, Alastor."

Dumbledore greeted Moody with open arms, but instead of hugging him as he wished, the other party simply shook hands.

"You are still the same, Alastor."

Dumbledore smiled heartily, obviously not seeing any problem with this.

My old friend has become a little nervous after getting old, and he is unusually sensitive to many things, and physical contact is no exception.

"I hope I didn't come too late." Moody's magic eyes rolled around, as if he was really vigilant about the surrounding environment, "Albus, what are you doing?"

"It's a relatively novel experiment, but unfortunately, you just dispelled the lightning needed for the experiment." Dumbledore complained half-jokingly, but there was no sense of blame in his words.

Similarly, because of Moody's reputation, although they felt regretful, Tofudi, Professor Bubaji and others had no choice but to accept the "fact" that the experiment failed.

"Students, please allow me to introduce the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Professor Moody!"

It should be said that Lao Deng is worthy of being the principal, and his ability to control the field is nothing to say, and he shifted everyone's attention from the experiment just now to Moody with a few words.

And Moody did catch everyone's attention as expected. Even after Dumbledore finished his introduction, only the headmaster and Hagrid slapped symbolically a few times, and everyone else was dumbfounded.

They were all intimidated by Moody.

Whether it's the horrible scars and magic eyes on his face, or his rough prosthetic legs, they all seem to indicate the death struggle between the owner of this body and the black wizard, just seeing it will make people shudder .

The most prestigious and legendary Auror in the British wizarding world, Alastor Moody, filled half of the terrifying Mad-Eye in Azkaban by himself!

It is no exaggeration to say that his name can really be used to stop the crying of children from wizarding families.

"You may be afraid of me, but I don't care, because I'll only teach you for a year, as a favor to Albus, and then I'll go back to my peaceful retirement."

Moody didn't seem to care about the fearful eyes of the students. After turning around, his magic eyes finally locked on Harry standing behind the crowd.

"Granger, we haven't seen each other since our last trip to Albania." Moody limped forward and greeted Harry familiarly, "Albus said You were conducting an experiment just now? Then I really want to say sorry to you. I have no idea that that dangerous behavior is actually an experiment. Or, if you are really dissatisfied, I can give you some compensation .”

Hmph... Did you really not expect that?

Regarding Moody's remarks, Harry directly responded with an undisguised sneer.

Not to mention that he is a household name, most of the British wizarding world must already know about his kite experiment.

Moreover, between himself and the Order of the Phoenix, he has been inquiring about each other's news recently, how could Moody not know his own movements?

His appearance was so coincidental, and he disrupted the progress of the experiment as soon as he appeared on the stage. Do you dare to say that this was not intentional? !

But...Even so, Harry must do today's experiment!

Because it was necessary for him to make everyone, including Old Deng, understand a fact...No one can stop what he, Harry Granger, wants to accomplish! !

"Harry, I hope you won't be too angry. Alastor only took action to disperse the thunderclouds out of safety considerations." Old Deng also came up to smooth things over at this time, "It's getting late now, and It is also impossible to thunder again, maybe you can consider another time for your experiment..."

"Sorry, Mr. Principal, I don't think so." Harry shook his head expressionlessly, and at the same time raised his wand to the sky, "All professors and classmates who are not interested can go back and rest, but I will wait for this day It's been a long time, so I must continue the experiment! What's more... who said that there will be no more thunder after a while? The cloud curse is withdrawn!!"

Harry released a streamer of light into the air, which instantly made the already clear night sky cloudy again.

The withdrawal of the cloud curse is an exclusive counter-curse of the weather spell, which can erase Moody's previous twist on the weather, so the sky over Hogwarts soon returned to the appearance of a rainstorm.
