Spotted By Grindelwald And Went To Hogwarts Chapter 497: Do you want to set a fire?
,!
"Sir, we are just mermaids..."
In the middle of the night, by the reef beside the Black Lake, two mermaids were standing obediently on the sand, their tails flapping the ground anxiously and fearfully.
"Hiss—" A long letter stretched out from the side. The red letter was almost as big as the red carpet, and it could completely wrap the mermaid in it.
"Sir! Sir!" the two mermaids screamed.
Of course, if this sounds to other people's ears, it will be the ear-piercing singing of a mermaid.
But for Sean who has the skill [Beast Whisperer], it is very convenient for mermaids, a magical animal with high IQ, to communicate - he didn't realize it before, until he "invited" the mermaid today to find that the Beast Whisperer also works for mermaid singing.
Sitting on the head of the basilisk, Sean played with the wand in his hand and asked casually: "I am not going to do anything to you?"
What are you going to do to us? !
The two mermaids didn't even dare to lift their heads, but they really wanted to question the boy in front of them, what are you not going to do, do you mean that two huge monsters drove us out from the bottom of the lake?
But these words can only be held in his heart, Merkus, the leader of the mermaid, dare not make any rebuttals - it is obvious that this young man gives all the mermaids a good first impression, and he has a feeling that he wants the fish to get close.
However, he was completely different from that kind-hearted Dumbledore.
"Sir..." She made a weak sound.
Sean lowered his head and glanced at it, but he didn't feel any pity—the mermaid looks similar to the man mermaid, or it might be more accurate to call it Yasha.
"Your Excellency, I just need you to tell me the information you know."
"If you know everything, please ask." Mercus said quickly, she was really scared now.
"I heard Mr. Bagman say that you will tell Professor Dumbledore about the situation at the bottom of the lake—that is to say, your eyeliner is all over the Black Lake?" Sean asked.
Mercus nodded hastily: "Yes, our Black Lake community should be the largest mermaid community in England. Mr. Dumbledore can speak Mermaid language, and we have reached a deal with him. As for the eyeliner, we have domesticated most of the Grindylos in the Black Lake, and we can communicate with some large fishes."
Sean snapped his fingers: "It's easy to handle—on that day, you should keep an eye on all the warriors who entered the Black Lake, right? Tell me the whereabouts of all of them, and don't leave any behind."
Merkus recalled it for a while, and then recounted the scene that his people saw that day, and checked with his guards from time to time.
After a while, Sean frowned.
According to Mercus' recollection, the surveillance of the mermaids could not cover the whole process, but most of the warriors' movements could be detected by them.
As Xiao En expected, the three people in Nurmengard were all under surveillance, but Hugo was attacked while passing through the aquatic grass area. The mermaids didn't find the attacker, so they reported Hugo's coma to the people on the shore.
When Hugo was attacked, a total of five people were missing. The three of Durmstrang temporarily disappeared from the sight of the mermaids, and Beauxbaton's two female contestants other than Fleur were also not noticed for the time being.
When their team was attacked, Durmstrang's Reinhardt Knott and Krum had just joined up, and the remaining man's whereabouts were temporarily unknown, while Beauxbaton's men were still on the way to meet up, but according to the description of the large fish, the traces of the three Beauxbatons had all appeared in other places.
The other teams have basically converged at this time.
In other words, there was only one unidentified person who appeared in both attacks, and that was Leon Schneider of Durmstrang, a seventh grader with dark hair and a gloomy face.
Looking at the frowning and silent Sean, Mercus thought that he was not satisfied with his memories, and stammered a bit to explain: "Sir, we are just mermaids... We can't fully control the situation at the bottom of the Black Lake, we just have better information than other creatures... The person who attacked you that day, we couldn't detect the specific identity of the other party..."
Sean raised his head, he snapped his fingers, and a huge wooden box appeared in front of Mercus.
The familiar and delightful smell immediately got into the nostrils of the mermaids, Mercus wiped his uncontrollable saliva, it was malt whiskey! And it's made from pure wheat!
A favorite human creation of the merfolk.
The huge letter of the basilisk reached out and pushed the wooden box in front of Mercus.
"I won't let people... Mermaids are the same, I won't let mermaids work for nothing..." Sean smiled.
It seems that this gentleman is very satisfied! Mercus's eyes lit up, she greedily built the wooden box with fish tail, rubbed her hands and said with a flattering smile: "You are really a passionate gentleman! You are a hundred times more merciful than the greatest man!"
Having no time to correct the other party's wording mistakes, Sean continued: "This is my return gift... I understand the situation. I hope you will communicate with all your clansmen again when you go back to see if there is anything missing."
"Of course, of course!" Mercus nodded quickly.
After speaking, Sean patted the basilisk's head, and its huge body shook, ready to leave the lake.
"Go slowly, sir! I wish you a good mood on this beautiful night!" Mercus said hastily.
But the terrifying figure just swam out a few meters and stopped again, Mercus panicked, this gentleman won't change his mind, right?
"By the way, there is one thing I forgot to say, about the bone mountain at the bottom of the lake, also help me investigate." Sean turned his head and asked.
That's it... Mercus heaved a sigh of relief.
"Okay, sir, no problem, sir."
"See you next time, if things are done well, there are still things."
Leaving a sentence, Sean's figure gradually disappeared into the night.
After confirming that the other party had left, Mercus, the leader of the mermaid, breathed a sigh of relief. Without him, the oppressive power of the two giant beasts is too strong, and this is not a fire dragon in the sky, the mermaids can escape the crisis by hiding in the bottom of the water. Those two giant beasts, especially the Selma Lake Monster, were simply the natural enemies of their mermaids. Mercus had no doubt that as long as the other party was willing, the mermaid population at the bottom of the black lake would be wiped out overnight.
"The leader?" the guard beside her asked in a low voice.
"What are you looking at!" Mercus resumed his former majesty, "Move this box of pure whiskey to my palace!"
"Yes!" The mermaid guard lifted the wooden box vigorously, and then asked hesitantly, "Mr. Dumbledore said that if there is any situation at the bottom of the lake, it is best to inform him. Do you want to send someone from your tribe to inform?"
Merkus thought for a while, and finally shook his head: "Forget it..."
The mermaid guard nodded: "Yes, that person is much more dangerous than Mr. Dumbledore..."
Mercus also sighed: "Mr. Dumbledore is a kind man, he will not do anything to us, but that person is completely different from Mr. Dumbledore... Speaking of it, he is very similar to the old man sitting next to Mr. Dumbledore."
"What about tonight?"
"It's rotten in the stomach...and we didn't break the agreement with Professor Dumbledore," Mercus patted the sand with his fish tail, "This happened on the shore, not at the bottom of the Black Lake."
The guard was overjoyed: "Leader, you deserve it!"
"Of course," Mercus flicked his tail triumphantly, "move things, go back!"
"Yes!"
…
In Durmstrang's big ship, the warm fireplace was crackling and burning. Karkaroff was sitting on a velvet chair, and in front of him stood the three warriors of the Goblet of Fire.
"Victor, Reinhardt," Karkaroff showed his yellow teeth, "I'm ready for the third match, and in one month at most, the exact project will come to us."
"Schneider—" When he looked at the other person, his tone was not so friendly, and he still called the other person's last name, "At that time, you have to cooperate with the two of them. Our goal is only one, and that is the final victory!"
In the shadows, Leon Schneider did not speak, but nodded silently.
Reinhart Knott moved his neck impatiently, making a crackling sound like burning firewood. He said dissatisfiedly: "I just want to know, can this last event be a direct confrontation with the opponent's wizard."
Karkaroff was very conniving at Reinhardt's rude behavior, and he said almost dotingly: "Don't worry, my child, you will get this opportunity."
"That's good, that Wallep, leave it to me." Reinhardt said with a smirk.
Krum frowned: "We are here for the Goblet of Fire, not for fighting, Reinhardt, you are too malicious to Wallep."
Reinhardt didn't give in at all: "So what? I've seen that kid upset for a long time. Hmph, during the summer recruiting, he targeted us Durmstrang everywhere. This time in the Goblet of Fire, I must teach him a deep lesson."
"This is a team competition, not an individual competition!"
"Are you afraid, Krum?" Reinhardt made a mocking voice.
Krum was obviously used to this man's rude behavior, he just frowned in disgust: "Pay attention to your words."
"Did you forget your brains on your Quidditch pitch? We are Durmstrang, not the little sheep at Hogwarts."
"Okay, okay, don't be noisy." Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was getting tense, Karkaroff stood up and smoothed things over.
After some mediation, the two snorted coldly, but they finally stopped arguing.
"By the way, sir," Reinhardt seemed to think of something, "Can that thing be used in the competition?"
Karkaroff pondered for a while, and finally frowned and said: "The problem shouldn't be big... In the last match, even Dumbledore couldn't see the situation in the arena... You should pay attention when the time comes, when necessary..."
There was a dangerous gleam in his eyes, and he wiped the front of his neck with his fingers.
Reinhardt showed a smile: "Don't worry, sir..."
Krum frowned and said nothing, while Leon Schneider in the shadow slowly raised his head.
When they walked out of Karkaroff's office, Leon Schneider returned to his room alone.
Locking the door, a string of misty black particles hovered in his palm.
"I can't see the situation..." He showed a sinister smile.
…
"Is there a magic spell blocking it?" Sean asked.
The bird snake Najia nodded.
"It's normal, Durmstrang is one of the old famous schools, come back first."
Retracting the bird and snake into his robe, Sean looked at the big ship docked at the pier in the distance.
He just let the smaller bird snake try to sneak into Durmstrang's big ship to see the situation, but there are many defensive spells on the big ship, if Najia enters forcefully, it will cause the magic spell to alarm.
After talking with the mermaid, Sean still focused his suspicions on Durmstrang. The school already had an unclear connection with the returnees, and Leon Schneider was also the biggest suspect.
At first I wanted Najia to sneak in to see the situation, but since she was blocked by the spell, she had to find other ways.
If possible, it would be best to directly trouble Durmstrang during the last event, but Sean doesn't like this situation where he is being watched and attacked by others but can only wait.
Besides, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. Sean Wallop believes in revenge.
As long as he finds out whether the guy who attacked his group that day is actually that Leon Schneider, no matter what contestant you are, if you dare to stop him, I will praise you along with Karkaroff.
This is no longer a question of contestants in the competition. The other party knows what Daisy is really afraid of, and the other party has a connection with the returnees—this means that they are already Sean's enemies.
By the night, Sean looked at Durmstrang's big ship with ill intentions—or should he just set it on fire?
However, now is not a good time after all, and the magic ship is not ready at all. After thinking twice, Sean still walked towards the castle.
He has to plan.
…
Hugo woke up on the third day after being admitted to the hospital ~IndoMTL.com~ After hearing the news, Sean rushed to the infirmary immediately.
"How do you feel?"
Hugo in the hospital bed was still a little unconscious, he rubbed his head: "Sean?"
"Broken, stupid!" Patricia exclaimed.
"Madame Pomfrey said that Hugo is fine now, but I think he may still be short of a good meal." Yin Taiqi analyzed it as if something happened.
Shawn shook his head. Hugo's state seemed to be under some kind of hypnotic spell, even somewhat similar to being under the Imperius Curse, but neither he nor the other professors noticed the breath of black magic.
However, as long as this kind of curse wakes up, it will take a while to regain consciousness.
Sure enough, after a while, Hugo finally regained his spirits.
"There's something wrong with the guy who sneaked up on me." Hugo said while swallowing the hamburger on the hospital bed.
"How?"
