Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple

Chapter 224 Sirius’s letter

"It's news about the Triwizard Tournament!" Ron shouted excitedly to his two companions behind him, "They are coming! Beauxbatons and Durmstrang."

There is a notice written on the notice board: At six o'clock in the evening on October 30, teams from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, the two top wizarding schools in Europe, will come to Hogwarts. Class ends in an hour.

"October 30th? Isn't that only one week?" Harry and Hermione finally squeezed into the front row. His face was also flashing with excitement, but Hermione seemed a little unhappy.

"Hey, who do you think can participate in the Triwizard Tournament this time?" Ron scratched his head. He didn't know many senior students.

"Cedric Diggory."

Behind Louis, a clear female voice sounded, black hair flowed behind her, and a faint fragrance spread to the noses of several people.

"Qiu Zhang? Why are you here?"

Standing behind Louis was Qiu Zhang, a fifth-year Ravenclaw student, who was recognized as the most beautiful goddess in Hogwarts.

"Who is she?" Ron Weasley had never met Qiu, and he was a little strange about the girl who suddenly appeared behind them.

"Qiu Zhang, a fifth-year Ravenclaw student..."

"I recognize you." Before Louis could finish explaining, Harry suddenly interrupted, "Ravenclaw Seeker, you are very powerful."

"Thank you, are you Harry Potter?" Qiu Zhang turned to look at him with a smile. Harry was startled, and that smile almost melted his heart.

"He is now the captain." Louis noticed the shining captain's emblem on Qiu Zhang's chest. He is the House-level Quidditch captain of Hogwarts and can enjoy the same benefits as the prefects.

"You are observing very carefully." Qiu Zhang responded, "But unfortunately, this year's Quidditch competition has been cancelled."

She sounded a little lonely, and Louis could hear her love for Quidditch, which was very similar to Ginny Weasley.

"By the way, you just said Cedric..."

"He just turned 17 this year, probably a few days ago." Qiu Zhang raised his head lightly, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him, "Anyway, he will definitely sign up. This is a rare opportunity. Opportunity."

Cho Chang was not stingy with Cedric's praises. Although it was Cedric who pursued her in the beginning, since the two got together, Cho Chang, who was actually a cold goddess, also became a love brain.

Facts have proven that falling in love does lower a woman’s IQ.

But Qiu Zhang's praise did not apply to Ron, so that after the two of them separated, his resentment and jealousy towards Cedric became even greater.

"That idiot? Will he be the Champion of Hogwarts?"

On the way to the common room, Ron kept complaining. Perhaps due to the influence of Fred and George, he always had a bad impression of Cedric.

"He is not an idiot Ron, Qiu Zhang is right." Hermione said, "And he is a prefect of Hufflepuff and his grades are very good."

"You can't judge a person's character based on their grades alone Hermione."

"I didn't, you are too one-sided!"

The two started to quarrel again, and Louis could only pull Harry quickly past the Fat Lady's portrait, leaving behind the sound of the two arguing in the corridor.

In the next week, there was only one topic left in the entire Hogwarts, the Triwizard Tournament.

Rumors spread very quickly, and many different versions of the phenomenon appeared among the students' topics, such as how the competition was held, who were the warriors representing Hogwarts, Beauxbatons and Durmstrang and Hogwarts. What's the difference? Just on the way to the Charms class, Louis had already heard three different explanations.

The entire castle was undergoing a general cleaning, and the old oil paintings were taken down. The characters in the paintings who were still awakened from their sleep kept cursing the person who took the paintings. The stone statues and armors were polished and looked brand new.

These tasks were all carried out by Hogwarts teachers and administrator Filch. As the time approached, Mr. Filch began to become nervous. He even sat at the door of the castle to check whether the students' soles were on their feet when entering the castle. With mud.

"What a pervert." Ginny complained after following Louis through the door, "Why didn't he check if his shoes were dirty?"

On Halloween, Louis suddenly discovered that all the decorations in the auditorium had been changed. Banners in four colors were hung on the walls. The red lion represented Gryffindor, the blue with the eagle represented Ravenclaw, and the green The embroidered python represents Slytherin and the yellow with black badger represents Hufflepuff.

Behind the faculty and staff table facing the door and walking to the end, there are four animals with the logo of the four colleges, surrounding a large "H" logo.

As soon as he arrived at the Gryffindor table, he heard Hermione complaining about the house elves again. Fortunately, at this time, the owl delivered a message and interrupted Hermione's talk.

"Thank you for your hard work, Hedwig." Harry touched his tired white snowy owl, "Oh, hi, it's a letter from Sirius."

"Are you still in contact with Sirius?" Louis leaned over curiously. Since Sirius went to Germany, he has never received any information about him.

"Sometimes, because Germany is too far away from here." Harry explained, and then he spread out the parchment and read it. It roughly wrote about his life in Germany and complained about the old diehards of the Thor Society. , and had some conflicts with the Saints, but fortunately there were no casualties.

"Werewolf tribe? Are there werewolves over there in Germany?" Louis noticed the brushed-off part of Sirius' letter.

"Northern Europe is the birthplace of werewolves, so werewolves will have a relatively large presence in Northern Europe." Hermione explained, "Actually, the werewolf tribe is under the jurisdiction of the German Ministry of Magic. There is no need to worry about them going out to hurt people or How about it, the wizard made a special place for the werewolves to survive. "

"Reminds me of Professor Lupin. I wonder how he is doing now..." Ron sighed. Luping's situation was indeed a pity.

"He is there, Sirius has seen him, look!" Harry pointed to them at the end of the letter. Lupine was now living in a werewolf tribe in Germany, but reading between the lines, it seemed that he was on a mission.

Everyone could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard the news that Lupine was safe. Harry patted Hedwig's feathers, and the bird cooed twice before flying back to the shed to sleep.

During the whole day of classes, almost no one was listening carefully. All the students were looking forward to the arrival of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang. Even the divination class taught by the Goddess was considered by Louis to be the most fantastic class.

The bell rang half an hour in advance. Louis followed Ginny and Colin to put their schoolbags back into the common room, and went to the foyer to queue up with the three people waiting at the door.

Professor McGonagall was already ready to go, and she called the students to line up.

"Everyone, get your appearance in order and show off the mental outlook of our Hogwarts students."

Professor McGonagall corrected the students' appearance and then straightened their messy hairstyles.

"Now, follow me." She directed everyone to move forward.

They filed down the steps and met the Slytherin students led by Snape at the gate. They turned a few corners and arrived in front of the castle.

The cold wind stung everyone's nerves. The students from the four colleges stood there uniformly. Louis and the others stood in the third row, followed by Harry, Ron and Hermione. They were all looking expectantly. With the grand debut of the other two participating schools.
