Ravenclaw's Blue Gem

"Is it because of the person who broke your heart?" Krum asked. "Did the girl just come to intercede for that guy?" He remembered that Hermione had said that there was another girl among them that night. Guess whether it was Potter's dancing partner."Where is that girl?" He looked around, there was no one.

"...Zoe is back." Hermione said dryly, looking out the window in a dream."Is she interceding?" Krum asked again. Hermione shook her head and nodded again, but she stopped talking.

"Then shall we go back and continue dancing?" Krum took Hermione's hand and pointed to the brightly lit auditorium behind him. This time the Weird Sisters played a lively song.

"...I'm sorry, Victor. I'm not in the mood right now..." Hermione grinned reluctantly, and refused the invitation."My mind is messed up right now, and I want to believe what she said, because I don't feel any deception, but I'm a little...can't turn the corner. All this is too sudden, I think I need a little time. "

And formally respond to this mood.Hermione knew that her answer had actually been decided, but she hadn't had time to say anything, her voice seemed to be blocked by something, Zoe let go of her, gave her a firm look, and Hermione looked When her face and ears became red, she squeezed a subtle smile at Hermione, looking almost fainted.

Finally she found a reason and ran away."Is your face hot, Hermion?" Krum took off the coat of his tuxedo. "Be careful of colds." Hermione wanted to refuse."Well, if you don't want to go back to the prom, how about we go for a walk? It's cold outside, you can feel better wearing this one."

"What about you, I can go back to the lounge to get a coat." Hermione said."No, I'm very strong, and I've told you about Durmstrand before, we've long been used to the cold. Let's wear it." Seeing Hermione hesitate, he just tucked her jacket over her Hands.

"Let's go." Krum wasn't very happy, Zoe's appearance brought a big change, and he didn't know Hermione's true thoughts anymore.But he still really wanted to let Hermione go out to relax, so that he could better understand some of Hermione's thoughts.

*****

When Zoe returned to Ravenclaw’s lounge, there were only a few junior students in the huge lounge. They couldn’t look away after seeing Zoe’s dressing, and they thought they couldn’t hear others. When the volume reached the discussion, Zoe walked straight to Luna who was lying on the sofa blowing out colorful bubbles.

"Huh? Zoe!" Luna's colorful bubbles hit Zoe's dress, but they didn't break. The bubbles blown out by this gadget bought in Hogsmeade are tough, not easy to burst, and can be pulled. A variety of shapes.It is said that more expensive varieties can make a biological cry after being shaped.

"You came back so early. Fleur and the others haven't come back yet." Luna sat up and moved Zoe a position. Zoe also sat down as if she didn't care about crumpling the new dress, and sighed. Took a big breath.

"What happened?" Luna stuffed the long slender straw into the jar and leaned over. "Didn't you say you want to go to Hermione to make it clear, how is the situation now? The misunderstanding between you is resolved? Is it?"

"One by one, I'm still sorting out my mood..." Zoe said uncomfortably, "I, I made it clear...maybe it made it clear." She intertwined her fingers on her lap, not sure. typical.

"Why? Didn't you make it clear?" Luna asked in surprise, "How did Hermione answer you?"

"I don't know." Zoe said.

"I don't know?" Luna was stunned. Based on what she knew about Zoe, she thought of a terrible possibility, "You don't know what you want to say, just run away..."

Zoe froze for a moment: "Um... I didn't listen to Hermione's answer... I just told her that I would let her know that I really like her..." Luna cleared her throat, and in front of Zoe. Yi rolled his eyes."I think you are really hopeless."

"Do you want to continue to dump her to Krum and be alone with him?" Luna finished speaking and found that Zoe's face suddenly became gloomy. She immediately stood up and wanted to go outside, Luna desperately pulled Live her.After a lot of words, Zoe gave up the idea of ​​rushing back to the auditorium.

"Since you took the first step, Hermione didn't say no to you. Didn't it mean you have a great chance?" Luna sighed and looked at Zoe, who was hiding her face and shrank herself on the sofa. "Don't think too much. Many, since you are declaring that you are going to provoke a war, you must be prepared for a protracted war."

What Luna didn't say was that she didn't think that Victor Krum would have many opportunities.Because Hermione didn't seem to be indifferent to Zoe's feelings at all, otherwise she wouldn't be so shaken by what Zoe said.Maybe tomorrow these two people will be sticky and sticky together. At least Luna is not optimistic about the player who came out halfway through.

*****

Sleepless all night.Zoe got up early the next day. Luna and she slept very early, unlike Furong and other students who left after the prom after midnight (the students like them naturally also did the next day. Can't get up), both of them slept very early.Zoe originally thought that she would toss and turn around because of the prom, but she did not expect that she slept too fast, and she didn't even have time to care about Max or have a dream. When she closed her eyes and opened her eyes, it was early morning looking at the wall clock.

They left the lounge together, and they didn't meet a few people along the way, most of them were junior students.The air in the early morning was very fresh, and even inside the castle, there was a bitter chill.But Zoe has never recognized the warmth of the cloak more than this morning, especially after she had experienced the baptism of the dress last night.

The auditorium has been restored to its previous appearance, and there is no trace of it after the carnival last night. The dedication of the elves is the basis for the students to sit here and enjoy breakfast the next day.It’s still early days. Most of the students sitting at the table are in the third grade and below, and there are a few students in grades six and seven who are not interested in the prom itself (even though more people have been to the prom, they are very Curious about the tradition of the Triwizard Tournament).

Zoe also saw Daisy on the other side of the Ravenclaw table. She was talking and laughing with her friends, with a lovely, relaxed smile that fits her age group.When she noticed Zoe’s sight, she was stunned. She was also one of the students who stayed in the lounge last night. It was just different from the students who were obviously curious. Except for the first time she was stunned. Don't even look at it.

Just when Zoe thought Daisy would ignore her in this way, Daisy nodded slightly to her.But there was no more movement, and she lowered her head again to talk to her friends.

The owls will not forget their duties because of this grand dinner, but the number of owls flying to the tables this morning is more than half less than before.Draw a beautiful arc in the air, and a barn owl fluttered its wings and stopped beside Zoe. There was a small bag hanging on its body and a small wooden tube tied under its feet. This was a delivery owl.

Zoe took a copy of the "Daily Prophet" from it, and when it left with its wings, opened the newspaper.A familiar photo was posted on a certain report. There were four characters on the stage, but only two appeared as the protagonist. One of the protagonists is familiar. Zoe can see that in the mirror every day. face.

"The twists and turns of Harry Potter's love history-new and old love fight?"——The author is Rita Skeeter.

The moment he saw the title and the author, Zoe put down the newspaper."Aren't you watching?" Luna asked suspiciously."Eat first, I'm not angry... It should be said that even if I want to be angry, I have to wait until I finish eating." Zoe bit a large bite of bread fiercely.

Chapter 86 Random Fabrication (Part 2)

Our special correspondent Rita Skeeter reported that since Harry Potter became the warrior of Hogwarts and achieved good results in the first project more than a month ago, he has not only been with him. Miss Hermione Granger, who has an ambiguous relationship and is always by his side, has also won the Highmountain Flower at Ravenclaw House, favored by Zoe Siegel, who is also in Hogg this year. Before Woz's Christmas ball, he actively invited Harry, hoping that Harry could become her dancing partner (the first picture is the scene of the dialogue between Zoe and Harry outside the Gryffindor lounge).

We have no way of knowing that Harry did not choose to dance with Miss Granger at the time, but agreed to Miss Siegel’s invitation based on what kind of considerations, but when a beautiful girl appeared in front of you, he sent to you sincerely When inviting, we should also believe in our own soul's choice.However, Granger, who was obviously left behind, did not stand still and did nothing. She used her skillful means to quickly capture Durmstrang’s warrior Victor Krum, who was in this session. In the Quidditch World Cup final, he served as the chaser for the Bulgarian team, and in the end he caught the Snitch faster than the Lynch of the Irish team and ended the game.

The star player couldn't resist Miss Granger's amazing charm. He soon fell under the tenderness of Miss Granger.We also don't know whether she chose this strategy after learning that she was abandoned, or whether she had made two-handed preparations long before then.When this reporter interviewed many students with "intuitive feelings about this incident," Miss P from the Slytherin House (the client wished to remain anonymous) said frankly: "I knew that woman was not a good thing. It must have been decided long ago to step on two boats. I dare say that the reason why Krum fell so fast, she must have secretly moved her hands and feet, such as ecstasy... She is a little clever, making these Things are not difficult for her." Many students also agreed with this feeling.

Although the facts are still hidden in the fog, the reporter was fortunate enough to inquire about some details that helped each of us restore the original appearance of the incident.The reporter learned about the connection between Miss Granger and Miss Siegel through various inquiries. Miss Granger has a bright mind and has achieved exceptional and dazzling results in the past few years of enrollment, but the problem It was the student who had been pressed by her to the second grade, who happened to be Zoe Siegel, and that happened every year.When you can't surpass the person above you anyway, it's no surprise that you want to do something off the court.

The reporter needs to affirm that even a person such as Zoe Siegel who is classified as a hidden danger by the Ministry of Magic still has the right to choose the person he likes, no matter if he "just happens" is Huo The warrior of Gvorz, the boy who survived catastrophe."Will she not choose to use some illegal means to confuse those she wants?", "Will this be a trace of hatred extended from the previous generation? Would she want to get revenge on Harry? Acting?” The reporter has heard such voices many times during the interview. Based on the neutral position, the reporter will not judge, but continue to display facts, and it is up to the reader to decide.

On the day when the dance party started, the dance by the warriors has always been one of the traditional events of the Triwizard Tournament, but there were some riots at the dance party that day. Fortunately, it did not expand, but was limited to a small circle. Many people didn't know what happened in that short time until the end.(Next is the photo of Zoe holding Hermione's hand while they were at the dance party, which made Zoe inexplicable)

The riot started halfway through the first dance. When Granger was interacting closely with Krum, Siegel suddenly broke free from Harry. We don’t know what reason she did this for— —She rushed to Granger and disrupted her communication with Krum. After Granger reacted quickly, she began to pull with Segal.

"I was stunned at that time! They suddenly started fighting. I was afraid that they would splash drinks on each other's faces! Potter and Krum looked helpless, maybe they didn't know how to deal with this. Come on, poor boys, they will never understand why the girls who were still smiling just now will start fighting together like blood feuds!" Later, when interviewing students who were very close to them, one A girl who was unwilling to disclose private information told reporters in shock.

According to the restoration of the plot and the patchwork of details, the two girls scrambled all the way, but they did not choose to expose their grievances in the public. Instead, they unanimously decided to have a good time where there was no one. Some people noticed that the two of them were quick Leaving the auditorium.At this time, another amazing thing happened. Krum was obviously concerned and confused (or sensed that he was being deceived?), he punched Harry in the face, taking advantage of the gap between Harry's retreat Rushed out the door.

"He thinks Granger will suffer in front of Siegel. He is too gentle and considerate, although Granger is not a good thing at all! If I can, I really want to turn her into a pus-catching toad. !" A girl who claimed to be a member of Krum’s support club was a little bit fierce. When the reporter calmed her down, she cried and told reporters, "None of this should have happened! How could he choose an ugly guy as his dance partner? !"

We don’t know the outcome of this "match", but what we can know is the exact information that was witnessed: Granger and Krum did not have any friction or contradiction. They were still in Hogwarts. Walking and chatting in the rose garden, Krum was obviously comforted, and he didn't doubt his partner at all.The reporter also interviewed the students who stayed in the Ravenclaw lounge that night, and asked him what Siegel saw at the time.

"She came back very early and came back alone. I know she must have gone to the prom because she was still wearing a gown... But when she came back I thought she was a bit...uneasy? Or at a loss, her face It looked a little hot, and the circles under her eyes were red. I don’t know if she came back after crying. But she and her friend went back to the dormitory soon."

This is just a small episode, but Potter obviously should pay attention to this matter, the choice is not easy to do, but only he really decides who is the one he likes, not between two people. Only then can we put an end to these entanglements about new and old love that may happen next, and focus on winning honor for ourselves and the school.The reporter will continue to pay attention to this matter.

******

"Laugh if you want to laugh. I think the face you have been holding on to your breath is also quite hot." Zoe twitched the corners of her mouth and threw the Daily Prophet on the table. The glass with things knocked over, and the drink spilled half of the table.

"If this woman spends her literary talent in vulgar third-rate novels, she will definitely earn a lot of popularity." Zoe was very annoyed, although she did it when she saw the title, picture, and reporter's name. It's a bad feeling, but after reading this pile of distorted facts, she still feels insulted.

Luna held her breath for a long time, her face turned red, and finally she turned her face and laughed intermittently."Look at what is written in this'report', are you going to start stealing a man from Hermione? It's still Potter." She eased her breath to avoid oxygen deficiency in her laughter. "But she wrote really well. It's provocative, isn't it? And it looks very realistic."

"Isn't Rita what I want? Potter is a frivolous and vacillating playboy, Hermione is a very scheming girl in the city, Krum is a hapless idiot, I am not qualitative, I can see she is Maybe I should be portrayed as a pretender trying to use Potter to fight Hermione, or a bitter lover who has a deep love affair with Potter, or she intends to turn me into a madness for revenge. Mole?" Zoe crumpled the newspaper containing the report into a ball of paper, and said viciously.

"I only know that if that woman appears in front of me now, I will turn her into a pus-catching toad, and then throw her into the wilderness." She burned the ball of paper and looked at it. The flames gradually extinguishing on the plate could not let her vent her anger, "Look at the end, Luna.'The reporter will continue to pay attention to this matter', which means she hasn't planned to let this topic go, she probably still wants Arrange more details and turn me and Hermione into the jokes of the entire magic world!"

"It's not just you, Zoe." Luna took the newspaper and flipped through it casually, surprised. "She has already started. Read it for yourself." She shoved the newspaper to Zoe again, and Zoe said resist.

"It's not about you, look at this one." Luna pointed to the headline of the news, "Dumbledore's Major Mistake," and Zoe immediately came to his attention, and read it carefully with full guard.

"What are these things?" The report is not long, and it is not very interesting compared to the serious gossip news before, but it reveals an amazing secret, "Ruper Hager has giant blood. She glanced at Luna blankly. "But what does this have to do with Dumbledore? Why does this woman always pour dirty water on Dumbledore before talking about business? Even if it was indeed he who gave Hagrid his fate. Protect the professor in the class of magical biology. No matter how I look at it, the only elements that the pedigree shows in that stupid man are his thick hair and sturdy body."

Chapter 87 Confession (Part 1)

"I care a little." Zoe read Hagrid's report from the beginning to the end. "If our professor of Protecting Magical Creatures is not really an idiot who talks about this secret casually, then Where did Rita get the news? Have you seen her haunt the school?"

Luna thought about it carefully: "She appeared in the first event. She was probably invited to watch the game. But she has never been seen before." Zoe frowned."It is impossible for her to come in casually. You must know that Hogwarts is not a star show. This is a school with many imprisonments and restrictions. If you want to permanently connect to the Floo network or temporarily connect a new line, you must Report to the principal first."

"And the rubbish about the dance party--" Zoe just wanted to turn to that page, remembering that he had burned that page of newspaper just to vent his anger, "You should also have an impression of those pictures. How did she capture it? She was not there at the prom at the time! And the effect of those photos was almost stuck on our faces."

"Invisibility cloak? Or phantom spell?" Zoe thought for a while, and denied this speculation. "It's not realistic unless she can penetrate other people like a ghost. There are really many people at the party, and they are still dancing. , I can't think of how she can squat in the crowd without being noticed..."

"It's not that there are people everywhere." Luna said without hesitation, and then when Zoe looked over suspiciously, she raised her hand and waved her head, "She can fly in the sky on a broomstick, wearing invisibility. Or hang yourself from the dome with a rope and fall down like a spider...what's wrong? Did I make a mistake?" She found Zoe looking at her with extremely complicated eyes and scratching in confusion Scratched his hair.
