The Christmas dance just passed, and most of the students were still immersed in the joy of last night. It has to be said that Hogwarts' management is relatively strict. At least there were no large number of children saying goodbye to virgins after yesterday's Christmas dance.

In the afternoon, Hermione went to class, and Lin Xiao continued to live in Hogwarts as Jax. He usually studied the magic of mind and spent three hours in the evening to guide Hermione. Occasionally, he would relax and wander around in Hogwarts, or watch those unlucky students being scolded by Snape.

Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, there was only the last day left in January. As February was about to come, the time for the second competition was getting closer and closer.

Fortunately, Hermione had found the secret of Golden Egg some time ago. This secret was not told by Harry. In fact, she discovered it one day earlier than Harry, and she accidentally discovered it while taking a shower.

However, although Golden Egg's secret was found, Hermione didn't know much about the specific content of the second mission. The only thing she guessed was that she had to stay under the water for a long time, which was not difficult for her at all.

Look for us, where our voices sound, we cannot sing on the ground. When you search, please think carefully: We have snatched your beloved baby. You only have an hour to find and regain the objects we have taken. After an hour, there is no hope, and it has completely disappeared and will never appear.

This is the content of the sound of the golden egg being placed under the water. According to the literal meaning, Hermione needs to stay under the water for at least an hour, and she will have a beloved baby being placed somewhere under the water, and then she needs to search for it. Maybe if she can't find it, she may lose such a baby forever.

But what kind of baby would that be?

No matter how smart Hermione is, she would never have thought that because she had fixed the "baby" to an item from the beginning, and did not expect that the "baby" might refer to someone, a friend who was very close to her.

...

February 24th, this is a special day.

For all the students who have stayed in Hogwarts, this is another rare show!

Black Lake.

Lin Xiao didn't know why this lake was called Black Lake. Its water was not black at all, and it was another strange name.

Bagman stood among the referee and took a step forward. He pressed his wand against his throat and cast a magic "high-sounding" magic, allowing his voice to be heard by everyone.

"Listen to everyone, our Warriors are already in their place. As soon as I whistle, the second project will begin. They have an entire hour to regain what they have been stolen from their hands. I count to three. One…two…three!

A sharp whistle echoed in the cold and still air, and a burst of cheers and applause broke out in the stands.

Hermione cast a bubble spell, and the huge bubble wrapped her entire head.

The next moment she jumped into the lake with a "thump". She disappeared in the blink of an eye.

A large number of aquatic plants grow under the water of the Black Lake. These aquatic plants have thick and tough roots. If you are accidentally entangled, you may be in a lot of trouble.

Hermione swam through the water forest, and suddenly... she turned around and looked behind her. She seemed to feel something swims through behind her before.

"I heard that there are fishmen living under the Black Lake. I wonder if it's true?" Hermione thought to herself. Her hands kept paddling with water and swam forward.

On the shore, Lin Xiao talked casually with Dumbledore next to him, and he was not worried about Hermione. The second game in three games can be said to be the easiest one. He is comparing who finds the shortest time first, unless he saves his mission target like Harry, and wants to save another one, he will be attacked by those fishmen.

As for Furong, I can only say that she was in trouble. It was purely because the curse was not exquisite enough. She was so scared by a slight fear. She was just like this. She didn't have much trouble.

Sure enough, just over a dozen minutes passed, Hermione came to the surface, and she grabbed another person with one hand besides her.

He was a female student from Gryffindor and a roommate in the same room as Hermione. The two usually had a good relationship, so the reason they chose her was because Dumbledore and the others really didn't know who else to choose.

Ron has to leave it to Harry, and Hermione's partner at the last Christmas dance party was Lin Xiao. They couldn't let Lin Xiao be the one who was rescued, right? So they had to settle for the second best and chose Hermione's roommate.

Hermione was the first to get ashore, and after she got ashore for a while, the second place came up, and then the third place.

Of course, there was actually a person who went ashore even earlier than Hermione, but she did not succeed in rescuing her target, so she must be ranked last.

Seeing that the other four people had already arrived, the time was getting closer and closer to the hour limit, but Harry still did not appear on the lake.

"Teacher, there won't be something wrong with Harry, right?" Hermione looked at the lake with a worried look.

"Don't worry, he will come up soon." Lin Xiao said with a smile, "and you may even snatch your first place."

Hermione looked at Lin Xiao in confusion, not understanding the meaning of the teacher's words.

Harry is obviously the last one, how could he steal his first place?

However, Hermione didn't care whether Harry would steal his first place. Anyway, he was his good friend, as long as he was not snatched away by the other three.

"Oh, I'm out!" Lin Xiao suddenly looked at the lake and said.

"Where?" Hermione quickly turned her head and looked. At this time, she heard an explosion. Water splashed on the lake, and then several black shadows rushed up from under the water.

Hermione looked carefully and saw that the three black shadows that rushed out of the water turned out to be Harry, Ron and the little girl of Busbaton.

"Oh my God~! He saved two people!" Hermione ran over in anger.

At this time, others also walked over, and Dumbledore and several referees arrived here first.

Furong, who had already arrived ashore in the morning, was excited to express her gratitude like Harry, and the shameless Ron also took the opportunity to get a free kiss, looking at the boys beside him enviously.

After discussions by Dumbledore and other referees, he finally decided to award the second place to Harry, who bravely rescued the two men. The reason why he didn't give him first was because Hermione was too fast and reached the place where the hostages were tied at the bottom of the lake earlier than Harry, so after discussion, he was given a second place.

In this way, the first, second and two names in the second game actually fell on Hogwarts, and both of them were from Gryffindor College, which made all the Gryffindor students who heard this news put their heads high when they walked for a long time, as if they had won the honors themselves.

After the relatively simple second game ended, Bagman announced the start time of the third game, which was set on the evening of June 24. That time was very close to the end of this school year. I am afraid that after the last game ended, the three-way championships will end, and the school year will be over.

However, there are still four months left before that day. During these four months, the five Warriors can try their best to prepare as much as possible to deal with the challenges in four months.

Hermione's score is far ahead and ranked first, followed by Harry and Cedric, then Crum and Fleur.

Neither Kakarov nor Maxim were very happy. The two had been blunt after the second game. Obviously, five Warriors and three Hogwarts ranked in the top three, while the Warriors from the two schools that they came here from thousands of miles away were only ranked fourth and fifth, which made them feel very embarrassed.

But no matter how embarrassed they are, they can only accept it. Fortunately, there is still the last competition, which is the real highlight. As long as they perform well in the end, it cannot be said that they are missing the championship.

Once people get busy, they will feel that time passes quickly, and four months really pass in the blink of an eye.

Today is June 24th, and in about ten hours, the last game of the Three Thousands Championship begins. After four months of preparation, it can be said that they are absolutely fully prepared to face this game.

As the game approached, Harry and the others were sitting at the long table eating breakfast and discussing the evening game.

They don’t know the specific content yet, but when they think that this competition was held at night, they know that it will definitely not be that simple, and it is the third competition. This cannot be simple at all.

Hermione is holding today's new issue of "Prophet Daily" in her hand, which is the largest newspaper in the British wizarding world.

She opened the newspaper, glanced at the front page, and immediately sprayed a mouthful of pumpkin juice on the newspaper.

"What's wrong?" Harry and Ron asked together staring at her.

"Nothing." Hermione hurriedly wanted to hide the newspaper, but Ron snatched it away. He stared at the title and said, "It's impossible. It's today, this old cow."

"What?" Harry asked, "It's Rita Skit again?"

"No." Ron also wanted to hide the newspaper like Hermione.

"Is it written to me?" Harry asked.

"No." Ron said in a completely unbelievable tone. But before Harry asked to read the newspaper, Draco Malfoy on the Slytherin table on the other end of the auditorium shouted.

"Hey, Potter! Potter! How's your head? Are you okay? You won't go crazy at us, right?" Malfoy also held a copy of the Prophet Daily in his hand. Slytherin's students were snickering and turned to look at Harry's reaction.

"Show me," Harry said to Ron, "Give me."

Ron handed over the newspaper reluctantly. As soon as Harry opened it, he saw his photo, and the title on it was clearly in the picture:

Harry Potter—

Disturbing, emotionally dangerous

Special reporter Rita Skitter reported: The boy who defeated the mysterious man was emotionally unstable and could be quite dangerous. Recently, there was amazing evidence to disclose Harry Potter's strange behavior, which made people wonder whether he was suitable for a difficult competition like the Triple Championship, or even for school at Hogwarts.

The Prophet Daily exclusively disclosed that Porter often had illnesses at school and told people that the scar on his forehead was painful (the scar was the mark left by the spell that the mysterious man recited when he tried to kill him). In a divination class last Monday, a reporter from the Prophet Daily witnessed Porter rushing out of the classroom and saying that the scar was so painful that he could not continue to attend classes.

Senior experts at St. Mungo Magic Injury Hospital said that Potter's brain may have been affected by the mysterious man's magic, and he insisted that the scar still hurts, indicating that his mental disorder is quite confusing.

“He might be pretending,” said one expert, “maybe he wants to get attention.

"But The Daily Prophet also discovered some disturbing situations of Harry Potter. Hogwarts's principal Albus Dumbledore has been careful to cover it up.

"Potter would say snake-good," Hogwarts fourth-year student Draco Malfoy revealed. "Two years ago, many students were attacked, and most people think that Potter was behind the scenes because everyone saw him pissing off a snake in the duel club. But all of this was covered up. He also made friends with werewolf and giants. We think he could do anything for power."

The Snake Arctic (i.e. the ability to talk to snakes) has always been regarded as black magic. In fact, the most famous Snake Arctic in the contemporary era is the mysterious person himself. A member of the Black Magic Defense League who did not want to be named said that he believed that any wizard who could say Snake Arctic "is worth investigating. I personally doubt those who can talk to snakes, because snakes are often used in the most vicious black magic and are historically associated with bad people." Similarly, "people who are with evil things such as werewolfs and giants are usually violent."

Albus Dumbledore should consider whether it is appropriate to allow such a boy to participate in the Triumph Championship. Some people are worried that Potter will use the black magic because he is eager to win. The third event will be held tonight.

"I don't like me so much, right?" Harry said easily.

On the side of Slytherin, Malfoy, Crabb and Gole were all laughing at him. They knocked their fingers on their foreheads, made the strange appearance of a madman, and stuck out their tongues like snakes.

"How did she know that your scar hurts in divination class?" Ron said. "It's impossible for her to be present, and it's impossible for her to hear-"

"The window is open," said Harry, "I opened the window and wanted to get some breath."

"You are on the top floor of the North Building!" said Hermione. "Your voice cannot be heard on the ground below!"

"Hey, you should be the one who studies eavesdropping magic!" said Harry, "Tell me how she knows!"

"I'm thinking!" said Hermione, "But...but..." A strange expression of dreams suddenly appeared on Hermione's face. She slowly raised one hand and stroked her hair.

"Are you okay?" Ron asked with a frown at her.

"It's okay," Hermione said holding her breath, and she stroked her hair again, then raised her hand to her mouth, as if she was holding an intercom.

Harry and Ron looked at each other.

"I have an idea," Hermione said with her eyes empty. "I think I know... because no one can see that... even Moody can't see... She can climb to the windowsill... but this is not allowed... This is absolutely not allowed... I think we will catch her! Give me two seconds - go to the library to verify!" Before she finished speaking, Hermione grabbed her schoolbag and ran out of the auditorium.

"She is still so rash." Ron said, looking at Hermione's back, "I don't think she can change this forever."

"Maybe she really knows something," Harry said. "I mean, she's been learning from Mr. Jax. Mr. Jax should have told her something similar."

"Maybe." Ron said casually, "Harry, I really envy you two. You don't need to take the exam!"

As Warriors in the Triumph Championship, neither Harry nor Hermione had to take this year's exam. All they need to consider is to work hard to prepare for the game and prepare to meet tonight's game.
