Chapter 260 "The Love and Hate of the Warriors"(1/2)
Harry was really panicked.
Because everyone in Hogwarts knows that John values Michelle very seriously, and John has never been very rational when it comes to matters involving Michelle.
In the first grade, John had an argument with Michelle over a certain Slytherin with platinum blond hair, and gave him a severe lesson.
Poor Marcus Flint was so beaten that he lay in the school hospital for several days.
It was precisely because he secretly said bad things about Michelle.
And now, the article titled "The Love and Hate of Warriors" in the "Daily Prophet" describes the relationship between them in a very vague way.
【Our warriors have obviously met their true love.】
[Michelle Shafiq, she is a very special girl, with beautiful appearance and active personality. 】
[Michelle and John share the same surname, but are not related by blood. But there is no doubt that the two of them are very close. Almost every student interviewed in Hogwarts believes that they are a perfect match.
.They themselves obviously think so.】
[I have reason to believe that John cheated and signed up for the Triwizard Tournament because he was unwilling to miss out. By the way, he also used his connections and power to put his lover's name into the competition. 】
[Harry Potter, our savior also has unusual feelings for Michelle. This can be seen from the fact that he desperately wants to sign up for the competition like John and Michelle. 】
[Harry and John are love rivals. They fought a lot secretly for Michelle. This fight was going on even when the two were being interviewed. For example, John was always trying to steal Harry's words.
】
[Harry would follow Michelle every day, pestering the girl, constantly saying love words to her, trying to get her to change her mind.]
[Harry also said to Michelle...]
…
John had only read a few pages, and his blood pressure had already risen a bit.
Rita Skeeter is really good at spreading rumors.
The complicated love between boys and girls during adolescence is what many readers want to read.
The identities of John and others as warriors will give this story greater gossip and dissemination potential.
John can already predict that the sales of this issue of "The Daily Prophet" will be very hot.
And this is what makes John angry.
Seeing John's obviously gloomy expression, Harry became even more panicked and kept explaining incoherently.
John took a deep breath, waved his hand gently to Harry and said:
"Don't be nervous, Harry, you are a victim too."
Harry breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
He was really afraid that this incident would affect his relationship with John and Michelle.
He didn't want to lose these two friends.
Hermione also echoed indignantly:
"Rita Skeeter is always spreading rumors! In her article about the International Confederation of Wizards Conference in the summer, she also described Dumbledore as a rigid old madman!"
"That's right! She is totally lying!" Ron waved his fist and said, "Harry doesn't like Michelle, he likes Qiu Zhang from Ravenclaw House!"
As soon as he said this, everyone including John cast a surprised look at Ron.
Harry's face quickly turned red, and he roared in embarrassment:
"Ron!"
"I'm helping you get rid of suspicion!" Ron said angrily, "Besides, do you think this is still a secret? Every time you see Qiu Zhang, you will blush like you are now, and you will also use a look of color.
Staring at Qiu Zhang with squinted eyes. To be honest, I'm really sorry that Cedric didn't come to trouble you..."
Harry interrupted almost growling:
"I'm not—sexy—"
The corners of John's mouth turned up involuntarily.
Harry's angry look right now is really interesting.
As for Michelle, she was already laughing.
While she was laughing, she was still patting Harry's back hard.
Judging from the grimace on Harry's face, he used a lot of force.
Everyone continued to fight for a while before Michelle finally stopped.
She looked at the newspaper in her hand and said with a little pride:
"Look, John, the newspaper said that I'm very beautiful, and they even used the words 'skin like cream, skin like ice and snow' to describe me!"
John shook his head, turned the newspaper to the end, pointed to the end of the article and said:
"Then you should read this section more."
[Obviously, the struggle between John and Harry has now entered a heated stage. And all of this was caused by Michelle. It was she who turned two outstanding teenagers who should have been companions into enemies. ]
[We very much doubt that Michelle did it on purpose.]
[Michelle is the culprit. She just likes to see two outstanding teenagers fighting for her and enjoys this sense of vanity. 】
[Poor John and Harry were fooled around by her!]
[I, Rita Skeeter, will do further follow-up reporting.]
[Please pay attention to the next article...]
Michelle glanced at the words, and her eye circles instantly turned red.
She said aggrievedly:
"I don't……"
"Of course! Of course you didn't!" John quickly comforted, "This is all Rita Skeeter's fault!"
Michelle nodded vigorously and said:
"It's all Rita Skeeter's fault! How could there be someone as annoying as her in this world?"
Hermione and others quickly agreed, comforting Michelle while saying bad things about Rita Skeeter.
Cousin John, on the other hand, looked gloomily at another article on the last page of the newspaper.
That was also written by Rita Skeeter.
But this time, she did not mention the warriors again, but used fairies as the protagonist of the article.
In her article, she clearly described the great contribution of goblins to modern wizarding society, and mentioned the goblins' high sponsorship of this Quidditch World Cup and the Triwizard Tournament.
She almost praised the fairies to the sky.
This is really a bit weird.
The class time was coming, John closed the newspaper and left the Slytherin dungeon with Michelle and others.
And just as he had expected, Rita Skeeter's article indeed caused a huge sensation in Hogwarts.
Throughout the day, no matter where John, Michelle and Harry went, the students around them would look at them eagerly, and then they would gather together and whisper excitedly.
Draco even brought a large group of Slytherins directly to find John.
They said that as long as John nodded, they would be willing to help John storm Gryffindor Tower again and find Harry Potter and give him a good beating.
Anyway, Slytherin’s college points have already been deducted this year.
There were also many people in Gryffindor who were unhappy with Harry.
Michelle is Gryffindor's house pet!
In their opinion, Harry was just a toad trying to eat swan meat.
John even saw Snape and Professor McGonagall entering the principal's office arguing.
After making some inquiries, he found out that it was Snape who was trying to transfer Michelle to Slytherin.
The reason is that he doesn't want Michelle to be harassed endlessly by Harry anymore.
Of course, it was impossible for Dumbledore to apply for this kind of transfer.
After John finished his course for the day, he contacted Michael through the double-sided mirror in the evening as usual.
"Have you read today's Daily Prophet?"
As soon as Michael's face appeared on the mirror, John got straight to the point.
"Of course," Michael said with a worried expression as he shook the newspaper in his hand, "Rita Skeeter went too far."
John shook his head and said:
"The point is not the rumor she wrote about me, Harry and Michelle, but the article that praises fairies behind it."
Michael raised his eyebrows and said:
To be continued...
