Everyday Players at Hogwarts.

Chapter 558 Durmstrang

"Why is there no introduction?" Lisa Dupin was puzzled.

She was curious about the tall witch.

“She’s Olime Maxime.

Descendant of the founder of Beauxbatons.

It's been a summer vacation, how come you don't know anything, Lisa?" Padma looked at Lisa suspiciously.

"Of course I know, the point is there's no introduction." Lisa rolled her eyes.

"I know!" It was Dean again.

He turned around again and said, “Professors from the other two schools came to Hogwarts this summer.

Only Beauxbatons had its headmaster, Ms. Maxime, come.

And there are two other schools that haven't arrived yet.

Look—" The people around looked at the picture in the air again.

The scene now comes to Black Lake.

That calm, dark surface of the water—but suddenly the water was no longer calm.

There was a commotion under the water in the middle of the lake, huge splashes on the surface, waves breaking against the wet shore - then, right in the middle of the lake, a huge whirlpool appeared, as if a huge plug had been suddenly pulled out of the bottom of the lake... A long black pole-like object slowly rose from the whirlpool... Then the sail rigging...

"This must be Durmstrang!" Ron sneered, pulled out his wand, and began to wipe it slowly with the corner of his robe.

"How do you know?" Simo asked curiously.

"Need I say more? Castelbrosa is in the rain forest, how can they sail a boat!
Krum! Krum!" Ron acted almost crazy, licking the corner of his mouth from time to time.

People around me feel uncomfortable.

I could only look up into the air again.

At this time, the ghost ship, which was flickering a dim and misty light, had completely emerged with a loud splashing sound.

In the cold rain and choppy waves, we headed towards the lake shore.

Then there was another splash, and an anchor was thrown into the shallow water, and then there was another snap, and a plank of wood was placed on the shore.

Finally, the picture suddenly focused on a man who walked to the deck first.

This was the second man who Harry felt looked very wizardly.

He has flowing golden hair and his luxurious black leather coat is inlaid with many decorations made of unknown metals.

The tips of his long fingers rested on a dark and shadowy cane.

Face the coming cold rain calmly.

This is undoubtedly Getter Grindelwald.

Harry subconsciously looked at Dumbledore.

He noticed that the professors around him were looking at Dumbledore with mischievous eyes.

And Dumbledore seemed to have noticed the gazes around him.

The screen in mid-air suddenly went black. When it reappeared, the perspective was focused on the back of the old man.

The people behind him were all wearing thick black fur cloaks.

This made them look very large, about the same size as Crabbe and Goyle.

However, the fur of the wizard leading the group was the same color (silver-white) and texture as his hair.

It was as if his hair was very long and wrapped around his body.

Moreover, the texture of the fur was very good. Even in the cold rain, it did not get tangled like those of the students behind it.

But it is soft and smooth.

But his expression was not as high-profile as his attire.

On the contrary, he was humble.

He almost bent over and walked towards the castle.

Just as Harry was concentrating on the picture, a burst of heat suddenly came from his ears.

It was Ginny, "This must be Karkaroff.

Dad, the former Death Eater they told us to be careful of.

He is still the principal. But I feel he is more like a servant.”

Ginny was confused by this.

She and Harry had both been shown a photograph of Karkaroff by a worried Mrs. Weasley, taken some years earlier when he had been on a business trip to the Italian Ministry of Magic as Headmaster of Durmstrang.

In the photo, Karkaroff looked very slick and arrogant, giving people a feeling of being pampered.

It's completely different from now.

"you forgot?

With Grindelwald, his new master, around, how can Karkaroff put on airs?" Harry also whispered in Ginny's ear.

However, this made Ron think they were making out.

He growled in dissatisfaction: “I’m still in a bad mood!

Can you wait until I teach Krum a lesson before you do this? "

After saying this, he turned and looked towards the door of the auditorium.

By this time Grindelwald and Karkaroff had reached the center of the hall.

And the students just stepped through the gate.

One of them was Krum.

But Krum was not as difficult to distinguish from the crowd as the French witch.

He walked at the end of the crowd.

Despite being an international star, he didn't seem to be popular at all in school.

The classmates around him regarded him as a plague and stayed away from him.

This made some Hogwarts students who wanted to shout his name subconsciously shut up.

But he seemed to have adapted to it a long time ago.

As soon as he entered the Great Hall, he looked towards the Ravenclaw table and waved to Ron and the others cordially.

Harry and Neville wanted to respond, but looked at Ron and just smiled slightly.

Krum looked back towards the Gryffindor table and blew a kiss to Lavender.

Then he hurried over to the table next to the Slytherins and sat down.

Ron's face turned even worse.

After Krum sat down, he felt shy but also a little relieved.

Ron, who seemed to like him, greeted them this time, and Ron didn't cause any embarrassing trouble.

As for Grindelwald and Karkaroff.

At Grindelwald's signal, Karkaroff did not go to the staff table.

Instead, he went to the table belonging to Durmstrang in dejection.

Grindelwald sat directly next to Dumbledore.

He leaned on the table as if no one was around, and looked straight at Dumbledore's unconsciously stiff face.

"Ron, could this be a misunderstanding?

No matter how much of a beast Krum is, he wouldn't say hello to us and then blow a kiss to your girlfriend.

Know that 'we' includes you.

Maybe Krum doesn't know about your relationship with Lavender." Harry said to Ron after thinking for a moment.

"impossible!

Absolutely impossible!
Although I didn't tell him who my girlfriend is!
But he and Lavender had been pen pals for such a long time.

He even mentioned knowing us.

How is it possible that the letter didn't mention anything about Lavender and my relationship?" Ron replied angrily.

Padma on the side seemed a little embarrassed, "But, my sister told me.

It was she who introduced Krum and Lavender.

She said Lavender was single."

"Lavender said that.

Parvati told her.

But she still called Krum a bastard." Ron waved his hand to show that he didn't want to hear it.

There is only one possibility, Krum pursued Lavender knowing that he was Lavender's boyfriend!
Harry and Neville looked at each other, and both thought that this matter must be discussed clearly with Lavender.
