Harry Potter and the Burnt Badger

Maybe it was the fear in her heart that gave Louisa too much motivation, or maybe it was because Louisa was inherently gifted.In short, since seeing the fat monk and confirming that the dream she foresaw was really the exaggerated scene now, Louisa has been running around in the corridors and stairwells, running very fast, and finally successfully became a member of the participating team The first player to break out of the castle.

When they saw Luisa, everyone, whether it was the spectators or her own teammates, were shocked - the girl was running forward while running wildly, While raising the short stick in her hand high, and already like this, she didn't even forget to run and howl.

If the game wasn't still going on, her teammates couldn't help but want to stop and ask Luisa what happened.But No. 2 can be seen in the distance from behind, and in the distance Violet and other girls have also walked towards this side. Luisa's teammates hurriedly comforted Luisa for two steps, and then took the stick. He took a big step out.

After all, just looking at Louisa, she is already like this, and it is completely conceivable that she has not forgotten to run as hard as No. 1.Rather than stopping to comfort Louisa, at this moment, Louisa probably hoped that her hard-earned advantage would not go to waste.

After seeing her teammates run out with her own eyes, Louisa's steps faltered and she almost fell to the ground.Fortunately, she also realized that there were other contestants behind her, and hurriedly walked to the side tremblingly. It was not until Violet and others supported her that she finally relaxed her body and howled loudly: "Wooooo! Wei!" Erlit!! I’m so scared!! I actually predicted it!!”

There were only a few sentences, no more than a few words in total, and Louisa was stunned to confuse everyone who heard her.

Of course, this also included Moon, who had been paying attention to the game. Unfortunately, when he looked at Violet, Violet also had a blank look on her face.

It seems that we can only find out what happened after the game is over.

Moon nodded slightly towards Violet and pointed to the rest area nearby. After receiving Violet's reply, his eyes followed the figure of the little wizard No. 2 who rushed out of the castle. Turned towards the second leg of the race.

The main area of ​​the second stage of the race is on the lawn. At present, large obstacles have appeared one after another on the previously flat lawn - there are round boulders rolling around, and there are also thick and long giant trees stacked up one after another. Professor Flitwick gave them a large group of crystal balls that would wander among the obstacles, and Professor McGonagall successfully created "minefields" with rugged areas. Once the contestants stepped on the "mines", the ground would A large cloud of smoke exploded, blocking the players' sight.

Louisa's team's second shot got off to a bad start. Just as they avoided a boulder, they were tripped by a crystal ball and almost fell to the ground.After he climbed up the giant trees stacked into a high platform and descended from the other side, he took no more than two steps when he was surrounded by another cloud of smoke, making him dizzy.

At the same time, a figure who had been following behind had already rushed towards the point with his head buried in the "thunder".

It was a figure that everyone was familiar with - Malfoy's follower, Gregory Goyle.

"The previous No. 2 overtook us!" On the makeshift commentator's desk, Lee Jordan grabbed the microphone and shouted loudly: "It's Slytherin's Gregory Goyle! Merlin! This guy looks like He was not blocked by the smoke at all and kept running forward crazily - if you tell me, he looks like an ugly wild boar!"

"Li!" Moon shouted dissatisfied from the audience.

"OK, OK." Li bared his teeth and smiled, stopped his behavior of bringing in private goods, and continued to explain: "Anyway, Gregory Gower seems destined to get the first place in this game—— No! Things have changed!"

Just when Gower was about to cross the line, and everyone felt that he was the winner of the second leg, the bumpy minefield finally had some effect - the smoke could not cause trouble to Gower who was running with his head buried in his head. , but the potholes on the ground do exist.

"Bam—"

Dust was everywhere, and several punished "landmines" erupted into smoke at the same time, causing Gore to completely disappear from the sight of the onlookers.

Taking this opportunity, several contestants behind him who had been pulled far away by him instantly narrowed the gap between the two sides to a very short distance, until No. 2 was about to catch up with him seven or eight steps away. At this time, Gore coughed loudly, waved his arms and climbed up from the smoke, roared, and continued to rush forward.

Facts have proved that at this level, a physique like Gower does have a huge advantage.In the eyes of the little wizards on his team who were both surprised and delighted, Gower once again opened the distance between the two sides by a small amount and won the second level with an advantage of about twelve or thirteen meters.

Since then, there have been no more surprises in the third and fourth levels, and among the teams that entered the finals, no one chose to swim by themselves in the Black Lake section of the third level. , which made the audience feel very sorry.

In this way, Gower's team relied on Gower's meager advantage to rush in and maintain the gap until the fourth level. Then their team's capable player, Ravenclaw's Michael Kors Na stumbled and won the standard number of balls in the fourth level and became the champion of this year's Hogwarts Four-Tournament Tournament.

"Wow! It's really shocking." Li shrugged on the commentary table, looking at the team that looked like it might fall apart at any time before, but now it seems to be much more united, and can even smile at each other. , said in a weird tone: "I think, before today's game started, no one would think that the 'Hogwarts Holy Sword Team' could win the championship——"

Seeing that this guy was going to become more and more outrageous, Moon curled his lips and glanced up. Li bared his teeth and smiled again, and quickly put the conversation back.

This guy is really passionate when he explains, but he always has a strong sense of bias and will mix his own preferences into the explanation process - there is no way, this can be regarded as complementing each other, high-pitched and full of emotions The effect of his explanation was excellent, but also because of this emotion, he just couldn't hold himself back and remain impartial.

"But, no matter what, the 'Hogwarts Swordsman' did win the championship! Let us congratulate them! By the way, their name is really good, right?"

The audience cheered loudly and sent blessings to the championship team. At this moment, not many people cared that there was Malfoy's follower on the podium.

Of course, not everyone can cheer.In the rest area nearby, Louisa listened to Li's shouts and the audience's praises, and the tears that had just stopped for a while suddenly burst out again.

"Wow——! Violet! I'm so miserable!!"

Violet sighed silently, letting Louisa hug her tightly, and gently patted Louisa on the back.

Now, she knew exactly why Louisa ran away from the castle crying - from this point of view, Louisa was indeed miserable enough.

She had been troubled by an inexplicable precognitive dream for nearly a semester, and then, when the semester was about to come to an end, she discovered that what she had foreseen was actually the finals of this year's semifinals.Excitement, surprise, panic... These are all normal reactions for the little wizard who discovered his gift of prophecy through a dream for the first time, and also saw the prophecy come true with his own eyes.

Although Violet herself does not have any prophecy talent and cannot predict, she has heard Moon talk about these prophecies.

Then, in this mood, Louisa successfully ran No. 1.

The results of it?Not only did their team fail to take first place, they even failed to secure second place in the third stage, unfortunately falling to No. 3.

It simply couldn't be any more miserable.

Just as Violet was seriously thinking about how she could comfort Louisa so that the little girl could regain her composure, outside, Moon had already distributed the championship prizes to Michael, Gower and others.

"Come on, come on, I hope you can continue to reach the finals next year." Moon encouraged several young wizards while walking past them one by one.

When he walked in front of Gower, Gower lowered his head as he should and stretched out his hand, as if he expected that Munn would not say anything to him.As a result, Moon not only put his badge and bonus in his hand, but even gave him a thumbs up. "It's impressive, isn't it? Well done."

Gower's strong body trembled, and he raised his head blankly to look at Munn, only to find that Munn had already walked towards the No. 2 team with the remaining prizes.

For a while, Gower almost thought that he might have been hallucinating. It was not until he found that his teammates were also looking at him in surprise and had left Munn that Gower finally confirmed——

He didn't have any auditory hallucinations. Moon Fox had indeed praised him just now.

Gao Er couldn't understand this kind of thing. Although under the strong school spirit and the reason of "weak power", they had not really bullied a few classmates.But who in Hogwarts most likes to fight against the new school spirit created by Moon Fox, it must be them.

He raised his stubby fingers and scratched his hair a few times, then shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

After all, thinking about this kind of thing is obviously far from his strong point.

1 hook hook

The fact that Munn praised Gower was not only difficult for Gower himself to understand, but also many people did not understand why Munn would praise an "enemy".

When he heard Milton's words, Moon almost spit all the coke in his mouth onto the letter.

"Are you serious? A second-year wizard, the enemy? Well, he has a Death Eater father, and he works with Malfoy and the others every day to find ways to do little things, and he does bully others - but to be honest, the enemy That’s a bit of an exaggeration.”

Moon folded the piece of letter paper in his hand and put it to his hand, then opened another letter and read the similar words on it.

"In addition, if you look at things one by one, if he bullies others, he will be punished; if he makes small moves that cause undue impact, he will be detained. In the game, he impressed people, so he was really impressive. People are impressed. He has not done any unforgivable evil. If he does, there will naturally be other punishments waiting for him. By then, let alone praise, whether he will have a chance to compete is a matter of course."

Gal, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, widened his eyes, "Don't you hate the behavior of Malfoy and his little group?"

"...I hate it, but hate is hate. Since I went up to present the award, I can't favor one over the other." Moon said helplessly: "Like I said, if they really do something that actually hurts others, then they There won't even be a chance to compete. But as far as I know, the last time he and Crabbe tried to beat up a Gryffindor student under Malfoy's instructions, they were sent directly to Professor McGonagall by Gabriel. , received two weeks of confinement - and that was already last semester."

"Of course, in case you don't remember...that Gryffindor second-year student was imprisoned for a month by Professor McGonagall for almost ripping off Draco Malfoy's waistband in public."

Yes, today's Hogwarts has lost a lot of colorful campus life (bullying). Harry and Malfoy have only dueled once so far, and they can only fight when they meet.After all, Malfoy is not stupid. He knows very well the consequences of tampering with people in Hogwarts.

However, in Moon's heart, such a peaceful, harmonious and friendly Hogwarts is obviously better.

As for what other people think...that's none of his business.In short, if you like campus bullying, just find a corner to hide in.

It's a pity to say that now the people in Hogwarts who are locked up and punished for "bullying other students" have become Fred and George - because they prefer to find the small group of people who want to have sex. Trouble with people who make small moves.

Of course, that was last year, at least since this year's Christmas holiday, the two of them have stopped for a long time.

After Munn explained clearly, all the little badgers naturally gave up pestering him. After all, everyone could see that Munn was busy with business at the moment.

Moon, who was finally clean, put aside the penultimate letter, and then unfolded Mr. Lovegood's letter.

Then, after reading the first two lines, Moon's face turned dark.

When he finished reading half a page of the letter, Moon's head began to buzz.

In order to resist the urge to throw the letter into the wastebasket and to show the greatest respect to the writer, Moon swore that he had exhausted his entire life's patience.

At the end of last month, after all the turmoil had subsided, Moon wrote a letter to every newspaper that had fabricated the news - although he was happy to see the consequences of those newspapers fabricating their enemies, but... To be honest, he doesn't like to fight public opinion wars in this way.

It’s not like we can’t win the public opinion war in an open and honest manner. We have to find some way to do something crooked.

What's more important is that, both emotionally and logically, he is a part of those reports that use gratuitous dirty laundry to describe his enemies.And such behavior will destroy one's credibility.

This time the newspapers still wanted to take him out of these bad things, but what about next time?What about next time?

If he had to choose between throwing dirty water on his enemies and maintaining his own credibility, reputation, and reputation, Moon would definitely choose the latter.

That's why he wrote this letter and gave a solemn statement to those newspapers - if similar behavior happens again, they will no longer obtain the right to cooperate with the "Hogwarts School Newspaper" in reporting, and they will also You will never get another piece of newsworthy information from him.

If it were any other person, such a statement would have no effect.But as far as Moon's many current identities are concerned, most of them alone are enough for these tabloids to treat them seriously.

Therefore, there is no doubt that every newspaper company has given its own guarantee that it will not only correct the mistakes in its last eye-catching report, but also apologize to the public.At the same time, he is also willing to abide by the agreement. Any report written based on the information obtained from Moon will ensure that he will never add fuel to the fire and will never do it again. Even if he writes speculation, it will be clearly marked.

"Never do it again" is obviously just words. When Moon ends up on the stage and becomes a person worth mentioning, no one will abide by this anymore.

But at least for now, they have given this guarantee.

And what about Mr. Lovegood?

It's hard for Moon to say whether he should be shocked?Or is it shocking?Or is it shock?

From the words in Lovegood's letter, he could clearly see that unlike most other small newspapers and magazines, Mr. Lovegood was not relying on this kind of news to gain attention, nor was he Earn traffic for yourself by using headlines.

He really really believed that Voldemort's father was a potions master...

Moon knocked on his skull - he actually wanted to knock on Mr. Lovegood's skull to see what was inside.

But isn’t it impossible to knock it off?

It's... outrageous that Mr. Lovegood actually sent the evidence he asked Luna to tell Moon.

It was an ordinary piece of feces, with nothing weird or suspicious about it: no blood, no damage, not even a dent.

But Mr. Lovegood just felt that this was the identity certificate left by Voldemort's father.

Whose biological father would leave a piece of feces for his illegitimate child?

Moon sighed the longest sigh in his life, then folded the letter in his hand and stuffed it back into the envelope.

There was nothing to say, and there was no way he could give the Quibbler any more information.It was hard for him to imagine what outrageous arguments Mr. Lovegood would come up with if he came into contact with the Crow Party, Bloodsworn and the like.

Moon Fox is actually the mastermind behind the Crow Party?Albus Dumbledore has been secretly funding the Bloodsworn?The Ministry of Magic secretly controls all dark wizarding societies?

"What's wrong? Moon?" Violet gently tapped the back of Moon's hand with her little finger. "Looking at your sad face, are you not communicating well with those newspapers?"

"It went smoothly, very smoothly - except for "The Quibbler"... They are really good at playing devil's advocate..."

"Pfft..." Violet couldn't help laughing. She shook her head and handed her drawing board to Munn.

"Huh?" Munn took the drawing board and took a look, only to find that it was another drawing that was very similar to the previous cards like Crucible Cake Prince, but this time, the person painted on it became Wei. Violet herself - she held a book in her hand and pulled out a bunch of mistletoe. On the branches and leaves hanging down on both sides of the mistletoe, on one side was the super Q version of Violet who stretched out her hands and tried to grab the leaves, and on the other side was The super Q version of Munn held onto the vines and stretched out his hand towards Violet next to him.

Moreover, there is a line of small words written below [When you use this card, you can obtain a 'book', and use this 'book' to exchange for two gold coins and any 'Mun' at any time. Card. 】

When he saw this, Moon sat up straight and his eyes lit up. "Wow, Violet, is this...the kind of card game I mentioned?"

"This is just the first one. Even for your previous drawings, I haven't thought about the effect yet~" Violet held the drawing board back. "Since the last time you said something about 'Blue Eyes White Dragon' , 'Dark Magician' and other cards, I was just thinking, I have so many paintings about you, and everyone usually has a lot of interesting things to draw. Maybe I can draw some cards myself and make them into what you said. The kind of game we played before.”

"Anyway, I have income from the school newspaper, and Professor Sprout also asked me to accept a portion of the share of the Herbal Journey album, and I am somewhat famous now." Violet raised the toes of her right foot and lightly He swayed lightly and said with a smile: "So...well, there is this anyway. As for whether we can really make the kind of card game you mentioned in the future, I don't know. Maybe I will draw it." I have no inspiration when I draw~"

"It's not a big problem." Moon patted his chest. "If you can't figure it out, don't you still have me? Don't worry, I have a lot of inspiration in this area, which is definitely enough."

"Okay~ I'll leave it to you from now on. You have to help me finish the painting~" Violet pursed her lips and smiled like a flower. She imitated the way Moon taught her and stretched out her hand. of the little finger.

Moon understood, and stretched out his little finger, hooked it with Violet's, and then raised his thumb to touch Violet's slender thumb.

"Pull the hook, adjust it upward, and no change is allowed for 100 years." [Note 1]

Both of them spoke Chinese, but one was more proficient, while the other was a lot more jerky and clumsy, but every sound was exactly the same.Obviously, Violet had specially practiced this sentence, and more than once.

Of course, as for what exactly it is for...

That remains unknown for now.

Chapter 1 "Cowboy"

On Tuesday morning, the little wizards once again arrived at the woodland where the Care of Magical Creatures class was taught. When they got there, just like the previous classes, Professor Kettleburn was already waiting beside them, and the sniffers in the enclosure were also already there. He looked eagerly in the direction where his classmates were coming.

Of course, most Xiu Xiu's waiting is not because of missing, but because the arrival of these little wizards often means that they have brand new gold coins to get.

Only one Niffler is special - yes, it's the "bully" Niffler who is very interested in Moon's hands and Moon.

In fact, Moon later learned that this batch of Nifflers were all raised by Professor Kettleburn after he came to Hogwarts to teach.On weekdays, these Nifflers live in the Forbidden Forest, and there is a territory specially prepared for them.

As for the "bully" Xiu Xiu, he is the oldest among the group of Xiu Xiu who are almost the same age, and he also takes good care of the other younger brothers and sisters.Although it occasionally kicks left and slaps right to maintain its status as the big brother of the group, but if something happens on a daily basis (such as when a Sniffer sneaks away and makes Professor Kettleburn angry), it will also It was always this Sniff who shared the firepower and comforted his younger brother in training.

"Okay, everyone, let me tell you something in advance." Seeing that the little wizards had spontaneously gathered around the fence, Professor Kettleburn snapped his fingers, "After today's class, you will have to follow Sniff. We say goodbye."

Hearing this, almost all the little wizards showed their reluctance.

Although the sniffers seem to be much closer to the little leprechaun gold coins than to them, it has to be said that after getting along for a period of time, these little guys have fully won over the world with their naughty and lively personalities. Everyone's favorite.Now that they are about to be separated, the little wizards will naturally not accept it so easily.

But this is a decision that no one can stop after all - they still have to deal with the upcoming final exams.

Sure enough, immediately afterwards, Professor Kettleburn said: "Next, in the next few classes before the Easter holiday, we will continue to review the biology we have learned before, and this year's final exam will also be better than The difficulty level has been increased a bit in previous years, so we won’t just test the unicorns and sniffers we learned this year.”

"The reason is very simple. You are already in fourth grade, and you will usher in your OWLs next year. I will help you take the difficult exams in advance this year, so that you will not have insufficient scores to pass the OWLs next year."

When mentioning OWLs, many students showed slight depression and panic on their faces.Moon had nothing to panic about. He didn't think he would have trouble passing any class - but, in Professor Kettleburn's eyes, he could see a bit of reluctance and nostalgia that was quite rare.

Immediately, he suddenly realized.

Yes, when school starts again in September, Harry and the others will be in third grade.In other words, it is estimated that after this semester, Professor Kettleburn will leave Hogwarts and start his retirement life.
