Harry: “Yes.”

Furong said gratefully, "Thank you!"

Cedric and Krum also returned.

Harry said to them, "I'm sorry."

Cedric shook his head at him. "The mermaids said I returned after you rescued the hostages, but I still exceeded my time limit, so don't worry about it."

Krum had a gloomy face and didn't say anything. He moved closer to Hermione and talked to her.

The referee finally announced the score and let everyone go.

The third and final event will take place in the evening of June 6th.

Barty Crouch Jr. was captured, but Yin Li didn't think Voldemort would give up this excellent opportunity of the Triwizard Tournament.

This is a rare time when the staff at Hogwarts is loose and the flow of people in and out is complicated.

This was also when Voldemort was at his weakest.

Yin Li wanted to get rid of him at this time.

Chapter 113 Harry Potter 34

After breakfast, it was time for the owls to fly around again.

Augustus flew in from the skylight in the hall and grabbed the Malfoy family's owl with his claws. Perhaps they had some personal grudge.

With Malfoy yelling, "You damn bird!"

Then he flew to the Ravenclaw table, folded his huge wings, and stood gracefully in front of Yin Li, stretching out his foot.

Yin Li opened the envelope and found a copy of "Wizard Daily".

Augustus grabbed a piece of steak from the table and swallowed it, then flew to the Gryffindor table and repeated the same action.

It flew away only after Harry untied the letter.

Harry finished reading the newspaper and handed it to Hermione and Ron.

Hermione also took it and started reading, "Oh, Rita Skeeter is actually an illegal Animagus, no wonder she can come and go from Hogwarts freely."

Hermione disliked people like Rita Skeeter who spread rumors, such as that Hermione was Harry's girlfriend, and she also made up stories about Harry's school life. She even reported that Hagrid was a half-giant, which made it impossible for Hagrid to attend classes normally.

If Yin Li hadn't caught her, she would have spread rumors that Hermione was a socialite and played with Harry and Krum's feelings.

Many people believed Rita's report and sent threatening and intimidating letters to Hermione, which were full of vicious words.

There was also an envelope filled with pus from the Babo tuber, which splashed onto Hermione's hands when she opened it, leaving her fingers covered in thick, painful scars.

"Look at the Wizard Daily, criticizing her for being unprofessional and spreading fabricated news." Hermione handed it to Ron.

As Ron read, Hermione continued, "I think the Wizard Daily is absolutely right. The five principles of journalism should be truth and accuracy, independence, fairness, humanity, and accountability. I really hope the Daily Prophet can live up to that!"

Ron was obviously impatient with Hermione's rambling, "You've already said it all, why should I read it?"

The two started arguing again, and Harry had no choice but to try to stop them.

The newspaper also mentioned the rights of half-blood giants.

There are still some vulnerable groups who are discriminated against in the wizarding world, and we should pay attention to this.

The Wizard Daily interviewed werewolves, half-giants, and even a Muggle-born wizard.

They made a video of the interview and printed it in the newspaper.

They also interviewed Dumbledore.

"I believe that everyone should be treated kindly. It doesn't matter where a person comes from; what matters is who he becomes!" This is what Dumbledore said.

They cannot choose where they are born, but they should be allowed to freely choose how to live.

Harry looked at the Wizard Daily thoughtfully.

The back pages also have some serialized novels, short plays, reviews, and simple divination tests...

This certainly doesn't seem like a wizarding newspaper.

Look at the love story of Merlin and the Lady of the Lake. You love me, I don’t love you, I love you, and you don’t love me anymore. We love each other, but we can’t be together. How can such a story arouse such heated discussion?

Harry always heard the girls talking about this in the corridors.

Harry didn't understand.

Harry thought it was a bit like an 8 o'clock soap opera, and the Wizard Daily might be the property of the Cavendish family again.

……

"Hagrid showed us the Nifflers in class. He buried gold coins in the ground and then asked each of us to take a Niffler to see whose Niffler could dig up the most gold coins." Harry said with his hands dancing.

"That's so interesting. I kind of regret not taking the Care of Magical Creatures class." Yin Li said flatteringly, "I want to get a Niffler, too."

Think of those little black, furry creatures with long noses and flat, shovel-like front paws. They must be adorable.

When Yin Li watched "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", she really liked Newt's one.

Harry said, "Caroline would approve."

Caroline rarely disagreed when Yin Li made a request.

Without Quidditch training, Harry didn't need to prepare for exams. His days were much freer and he had plenty of time to spend with Yin Li.

They can be seen everywhere, including the Black Lake, the library, and the tower.

Professor Snape scolded the two of them as soon as he saw them, and even refused to let them enter the study in front of Salazar's portrait.

Finally, the last project is coming.

Game day.

While eating breakfast, Harry was reminded by Professor McGonagall that he should gather in the conference room next to the Great Hall after breakfast so that he could meet his relatives.

"Oh, it must be Sirius coming to see you," said Ron.

Hermione also hurriedly packed up her things, "We have to go to the exam, you should go now."

Even though he had been communicating with Sirius, Harry did miss him a little.

Harry finished his breakfast in a few bites and went to the meeting room next to the auditorium.

To his surprise, besides Sirius, Caroline was also there.

"Hey, Harry." Sirius greeted him happily and gave him a hug. "Well done. You have the highest score among the Warriors now, right?"

Harry saw that Mr. Diggory's expression was not very good, and the expressions of the families of several other warriors were not very good either.

Harry pulled him, "Sirius, stop talking like that."

He turned to Caroline and asked, "Caroline, why are you here?"

"I came to see you, isn't that okay?" Caroline replied calmly, "I won't bother you anymore. I have something to talk to Dumbledore about."

Sirius's attitude towards Caroline was not very good. "Harry, I think you should stay away from her."

"Sirius, Ms. Caroline was taking care of me until you came out," Harry said.

Sirius hesitated, "Oh, of course I know, but she's a Slytherin."

"A Slytherin who married a Muggle," Harry added. "And your brother is a Slytherin too."

"But that woman is very ambitious. I can see that she has the same aura as Voldemort." Sirius still said worriedly.

Harry looked at him seriously and said, "The Sorting Hat considered putting me in Slytherin before. It said I would be a good fit there. So, Sirius, Slytherin doesn't mean bad people."

"Oh alright, alright, Harry." Sirius decided not to continue, but he was still determined to keep an eye on Caroline. "Come on, Harry, take me around Hogwarts. I haven't been back in years."

As they passed Amos Diggory he turned.

"Cedric's score has caught up. Are you less cocky now?"

Seeing his attitude towards Harry, Sirius immediately retorted, "Oh, if you have the ability, why don't you let your son defeat Harry in the Triwizard Tournament? Isn't his score still behind Harry's?"

"That's because he used unfair means."

Cedric quickly grabbed his father, and Harry grabbed Sirius.

"Sorry, he was just saying that in anger, don't take it seriously," said Harry.

"Ignore him, he has a misunderstanding about you after reading Rita Skeeter's report." Cedric frowned behind his father.

"I wouldn't mind." Harry quickly pulled Sirius away. "Let's go, Sirius."

Harry pulled Sirius towards Gryffindor Tower.

Sirius sneered. "That guy loves to show off his son. I think he's just mad that his son isn't as capable as you. He deliberately believes the slanderous words against you, and then makes excuses to convince himself that his son is still the most capable."

"Who cares what he thinks? I don't care." Harry said indifferently.

Sirius laughed, "That's the attitude I need. You're going to beat Diggory hard in the final task."

Harry was a little helpless. "Cedric and I have no grudges. Whoever wins will be a victory for Hogwarts."

"That's certainly different, Harry, I want to see you win!"

Harry smiled, "I'll do my best."

Afterwards, the two of them wandered around Hogwarts.

Dinner was more sumptuous than usual, and after Yin Li finished dinner.

Dumbledore stood up and everyone fell silent, waiting for him to speak.

"In five minutes we will be heading to the Quidditch pitch for the final event of the Triwizard Tournament. Now, champions, please follow Mr. Bagman to the playing field."

Harry stood up and Sirius and the Gryffindors applauded him.

Yin Li smiled at him and Harry nodded at him.

Harry then walked out of the Great Hall with Cedric, Fleur, and Viktor, and followed Bagman to the pitch.

They walked towards the Quidditch pitch, which had been completely transformed, with a 20-inch high hedge surrounding the entire pitch.

They faced the entrance to the maze.

Harry looked at the entrance thoughtfully. He had a feeling that something was going to happen tonight.
