Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

In the evening of the next day, when the setting sun was still hanging on the top of the mountain, the last afterglow of the day was exuding, the auditorium of Hogwarts Castle was full of voices.

To be honest, although Voldemort's attack was disturbing, Dumbledore used his strength to calm the fears and worries in the hearts of the teachers and students of the three schools.

Coupled with the smooth end of the Triwizard Tournament, everything seems to be restored to its previous stability, at least on the surface.

Under the discussion between Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic, the disappearance of Mad-Eye Moody, the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts class this school year, has not been made public. With Voldemort's return, these methods of maintaining stability are still necessary .

A few days ago, Minister of Magic Fudge visited the school once, in addition to sending the prize money from the top three, the more important thing was to talk about Voldemort's comeback.

To be honest, Maca said he was timid and fearful, and that was true.

In order to keep his seat secure, he still insisted on covering up the news of Voldemort's return from the public.The last time Maca threatened him with Voldemort, but this time, Voldemort really appeared, which was really terrifying for him.

It's just that he's not afraid of losing his life, but afraid of losing the post of Minister of Magic.

However, perhaps it was because Maca had given him a vaccination earlier, or because Dumbledore had scared Voldemort off directly, at least this time he was fairly calm.

But this time the problem was actually with Dumbledore.

For some reason, Dumbledore did not formulate any countermeasures against Voldemort's return, and even Fudge's ostrich policy did not oppose.

It is important to maintain stability, but if Voldemort's incident is not completely resolved, the appearance of a stable society will be fragile after all, and it is very likely that it will be smashed to pieces in Voldemort's next attack.

But anyway, at least for the moment, the atmosphere in the Hogwarts Auditorium is joyous and pleasant.

When Maca also walked into the auditorium, he noticed at a glance that the usual decorations were gone.

Usually at school leaving banquets, the auditorium is decorated with the colors of the winning college.Tonight, however, the flags of Hogwarts, Boothbatten, and Durmstrang were hung on the wall behind the staff desk.

Obviously, this is to celebrate the successful conclusion of the Triwizard Tournament, and to show that the friendship between the three schools will never fade.

On the faculty seat, most of the professors were smiling.Although this school year is indeed a twists and turns, in general, it is a joy to be able to get through.

Only on the long table of the faculty seat, there was one person missing Alastomoudi.

Although it was announced to the students that Professor Moody's resignation early, in the hearts of the insiders, it was still slightly heavy.

As the representative of Durmstrang, Professor Orson didn't seem to be in a beautiful mood. He drank alcohol alone and shook his head from time to time, as if he was quite distressed by the outcome of the three-finals.

Mrs. Maxim was still there, sitting next to Hagrid.

On the same day, the two of them hurriedly left the auditorium, ran to the arena and rescued Furong.No one knows if anything happened during this period, but the relationship between them seems to be a lot closer. Hagrid always stood at the door of the cottage and giggled recently, and more than one student had seen it.

At this moment, they were talking about something quietly, and they seemed to have a good chat.

At the table, next to Professor McGonagall was Snape.The expression on his face was elusive, and it looked as gloomy as before, but occasionally glanced at Dumbledore, seemingly caring.

Of course, Maca was not late on purpose, but he had to organize a lot of things, so he had to postpone the dinner party a little bit.

When he appeared at the door of the auditorium, many people looked at him.

"Uh……"

Maca noticed that Professor Orson's eyes looked at him... it seemed a bit resentful!

"Maca! Sit here!"

He really didn't expect,

In front of the gate, Macarton subconsciously glanced at Ravenclaw's long table, then hesitated again. He didn't know if he should go.

But Hermione waved to him firmly again, motioning him to hurry.

Maca shrugged and walked towards the Gryffindor table.

"I said why do you have to keep this space..." Ron couldn't help muttering.

The seat Hermione had left was right next to her, and the implications were self-evident. When Maca sat down beside her, almost everyone's eyes were fixed on him and Hermione.

But fortunately, although Hermione was acting tough, she could understand from her puff face that her heart was not as nonchalant as it appeared.

"Um... good evening, everyone."

Maca glanced around, wherever his eyes were moved, the students would look away.When he almost twisted his head around, the atmosphere around him returned to the state he had before coming.

At least he can eat well, but as for other things, he actually doesn't care.

"Oh, that's right!" He just picked up the knife and fork, but looked up at Harry again, "Harry, congratulations to you for winning the Tri-finals. You did a great job!"

"Ah thank you!" Harry nodded, but somehow he found that he couldn't be happy at all.

It was as if... Maca didn't win the championship, and even he couldn't be relieved.

The banquet is still going on. Everyone is fighting with knives and forks and delicious food. From time to time, they will chat softly and enjoy the last time of dining with the students of the other two schools.

When the little wizards had almost eaten, Professor Dumbledore suddenly stood up from the staff table and looked at all the little wizards.

At this moment, the originally lively auditorium suddenly became quiet, and a pair of bright eyes looked at Dumbledore.

"It's another year," Dumbledore said, looking at everyone, "it's over."

He stopped talking, and his eyes fell on the long Gryffindor table.

Before Dumbledore stood up, the mood on this table was always very high, because the champion of the Triwizard Tournament was born from this table.

"Tonight, I have a lot to say to you all," Dumbledore said, "but I must first be happy to announce that the champions of this Triwizard Tournament are Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and Gryffindor. "A college student," he pointed to the Gryffindor table, "Harry Potter."

Everyone applauded, and the auditorium was suddenly hot, especially the many Gryffindor cubs, their faces flushed with excitement at this moment.

But when someone is happy, someone is always sad, such as Professor Orson sitting on the faculty seat with an unhappy face.

Harry felt very embarrassed, but he stood up and bowed slightly to thank everyone.

"Harry fully embodies the unique qualities of Gryffindor Academy," Dumbledore continued, "He proved himself with his bravery and courage, and also proved the glory of the Triwizard Championship! I can say this: He deserves us to applaud him again and extend our heartfelt congratulations to him!"

The applause in the auditorium echoed again, and Maca smiled and clapped his hands next to him.

"Then, of course..." When the applause calmed down, Dumbledore continued, "As a reward for the champion of the Triwizard Tournament, a thousand gold gallons, and as a magic prop Ravenclaw of the Triwizard Cup. The golden crown is here!"

Having said that, Dumbledore drew out his wand and waved it lightly, and a big bag of golden Jialong and a golden crown floated from behind him, floating straight towards Harry in the enviable eyes of the little wizards. .

"Of course, the real Ravenclaw gold crown has long been lost. This is an imitation I made myself." Dumbledore said suddenly, very disruptively, "It has a similar function to the real gold crown in wearing it. At the same time, it can make the wearer's mind clear and peaceful, which is more conducive to learning and research."

"...Actually, it has the same effect as taking the brain-enhancing agent and Buffy's brain-invigorating agent, except that the golden crown is an alchemy work and the effect is permanent.

Seeing that Hermione was curious, Maca explained quietly.

"The champion is worthy of admiration," Dumbledore continued, "but we still have to express enough admiration for the other three warriors who have worked hard, been strong, fought, and regretted in this competition. Their performance is equally outstanding, and their strength is worthy of our respect! Let us applaud for them, and thank their wonderful performance for opening our eyes!"

This time the applause seemed particularly enthusiastic, because almost everyone in the auditorium slapped their hands, and the atmosphere reached the peak of the dinner for a while.

"Finally, on behalf of Hogwarts, I would like to thank Boothbarton and Durmstrang again for coming. I sincerely hope that you will have a truly happy and rewarding period in Hogwarts. Great time!"

...

The three Harry’s boxes have been packed, and the owl has returned to its cage above the box.Together with other fourth-grade classmates, they waited in the crowded hall for the carriage to take them to Hogsmeade Station.

Furong and her sister Gabriel hurried up the stone steps and entered the castle.At the end of the field behind her, Hagrid can be seen helping Mrs. Maxim to harness the two horses.

Busbarton’s carriage is about to set off.

"We live in Giverny on the western outskirts of Paris. You can find Gabriel and I along the Seine and will be waiting for you there!"

Maca and Luna nodded with a smile, but just behind them, Hermione, standing next to Harry, looked very unhappy.
