"I hope so." Ivy smiled and said, "Professor, if there's nothing else, let's go back first. It's been too long, and I don't know what kind of trouble Peter will do."
"Wait a minute - Black asked us to meet under Honeydukes tonight" Lupine suddenly stopped him
"Really!" Harry was overjoyed
"No" Ivey refused.
"Why?" Harry wondered
"There are Dementors outside, and you can't get out. If you take the secret passage, Peter will definitely find it. And the Ministry of Magic will definitely increase its efforts to search the surrounding area recently. If we meet rashly, we may be exposed."
"What should we do?"
"We need to have a proper reason to go. For example, next weekend, the third grade students will go together."
"Yes, that's safe," Hermione agreed.
"Professor Lupine, I would like to trouble you to go and inform Sirius. Teachers can go to Hogsmeade at any time without restrictions. Moreover, Hogsmeade is not under the surveillance of the Marauder's Map, so they can go to Hogsmeade at will.
action."
"No problem" Lu Ping responded readily.
"Then we will wait until the next meeting to discuss it in detail."
"good"
...
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the game between Gryffindor and Ravenclaw officially started.
"The game has begun. The biggest highlight of this game is Gryffindor Seeker Harry Potter's new broomstick - the Firebolt." As soon as the game started, commentator Lee Jordan was extremely excited. ""Broomstick"
"The Encyclopedia" says that the Firebolt is the broom of choice in this year's World Cup. Look! This beautiful curve - she is simply the girl of my dreams!"
"Jordan! Can you tell us about the game?" Professor McGonagall reminded
"No problem, professor - we just talked about the curve of the Firebolt. It is streamlined because it has a built-in automatic braking device. It -"
"plum!"
"Okay, okay, let's go back to the field. Now Gryffindor's Katie Bell is holding the ball and preparing to score-"
.....
"As expected. Harry completely suppressed Cho Chang," Hermione said happily.
"Victory is close at hand!" Ron also said excitedly
It’s no wonder they are so arrogant. After all, the game has only started not long ago, and Gryffindor is already eighty points ahead. If this continues, even if Qiu Zhang performs a miracle later and catches the snitch first, Gryffindor will win.
"Avi!" At this moment, a shout suddenly came from behind
Several people turned around and saw that it was Lu Ping. They saw Lu Ping standing by the stairs to the stage, waving to Ivy.
"You guys continue to watch the game, I'll come over for a moment." After saying this, Ivey walked over.
"What is it? Professor"
"Follow me" Lupine did not answer, but led him down the stairs.
After coming down, Ivey saw a ferocious-looking black dog squatting in the aisle between the two stands.
"You're not going to tell me that this dog is him, right?" Aiwei's eyes were blank, as if you were teasing me.
"I'd love to say no" Lupine shrugged.
"Professor Lupine, I don't think you are a careless person. But -"
"Don't worry. There are many people in the stadium today, and the names on the map are overlapping. It's impossible to find him."
"There are insiders among the students, have you forgotten?" Ivey said calmly.
"I know. But he heard that Harry had a competition today and insisted on coming over." Lupine smiled bitterly. "I think it would be safer to take him with me instead of letting him run around alone."
"..." Ivey looked at the black dog speechlessly.
"Woof——" the black dog still looked impatient.
"How did you get here? You won't be discovered."
"On the other side of the river is Hogsmeade Village. You swam here. When the show is over, you can swim back during the chaos. You won't be discovered."
"As long as you know what's going on," Ivey didn't say much. "Find a secluded place and don't expose it to public view."
"I know"
.....
Back to the stands
"What's going on?" Hermione asked curiously
"Sirius wanted to watch Harry play, and Lupine brought him." Ivy glanced around and whispered.
"What-" Hermione lost her voice for a moment.
However, Ivey had already expected it and immediately covered her mouth and said, "Shh-"
"How could Professor Lupin make such a mistake?" Hermione was still very excited when Ivy let go.
"It has nothing to do with Lupine, it was forced by Sirius. There is nothing wrong with what Lupine did."
"But what should I do if I'm discovered?"
"According to Lupine, it should be fine. After all, he is one of the inventors of the Marauder's Map."
"Okay" Hermione still trusts Ivy Ren.
"Since there's nothing wrong, let's watch the game. Harry will catch the snitch right away."
Betty's words caused them to turn their attention back to the field. Sure enough, Harry was only an arm's length away from the snitch. He was reaching out his hand to catch him.
"It's over!" Ron shouted in victory.
But sudden changes occurred
I saw three dementors descending from the sky
"Dementors!" "It's Dementors!"
The audience erupted in exclamations
"How dare the dementors come!" Hermione's voice was trembling.
"No. It's not a dementor," Betty frowned.
"Well, there's no suffocating feeling. And there won't be only three of them," Ivey said.
As if in response to his words, Harry quickly took out his wand and "Call the Guardians!"
A vague silver-white animal flew out from the tip of the staff and rushed straight towards the three dementors. Before he could see the result, Harry leaned forward, stretched out two fingers, and caught the snitch between his fingers.
At the same time, Ms. Huo Qi's whistle sounded.
"Yeah——!" the audience burst into cheers
"Win! Yeah!" Ron and Hermione also hugged each other excitedly.
When Harry and the others returned to the ground, the Gryffindor students jumped off the stands and surrounded him like mad dogs.
"It turns out to be Malfoy and the others."
Ivy and Betty didn't move. They looked at the field. Marcus, the captain of Slytherin, and the Malfoy trio were struggling to break free from the black cloth. Ms. Hooch stood beside them, apparently breathing fragrance.
.
When they left the stadium, Ron was still discussing the matter.
"Only Malfoy, a fool like him, could come up with this kind of attention." Everyone else laughed and bent over.
"Come on Harry, everyone is in the lounge getting ready to celebrate." Hermione was so interested in a party for the first time.
"The Patronus looks a lot like that." Professor Lu Ping happened to be walking towards him.
"I thought I was fine. The dementors didn't affect me. I didn't expect this." Harry smiled helplessly.
"He also asked me to bring you a message - very exciting," Lupine said with a smile.
"He watched it too!" Harry said in surprise.
"Um"
"This is the best congratulation I have ever received!"
.....
"So the Fat Lady is back?"
Ivy and the others are on their way to Hagrid's cabin
"Finally, I no longer have to endure Sir Cadogan's torture." Ron was relieved.
"Dumbledore already knows that Sirius is not a threat, so it is reasonable to replace the Fat Lady." Betty analyzed.
"By the way, why is Hagrid looking for us? Isn't Buckbeak okay?" Ivy asked.
"To thank us for our help, he wants to treat us to dinner." Harry replied.
"Hagrid invites us to dinner? I should have eaten something to cushion my stomach." Betty touched her belly and said regretfully.
"I'm a little confident. Hagrid said in the letter that his cooking skills have improved a lot. Today he wants us to try his latest delicacies." Harry said a few good words for Hagrid.
"..." Betty was silent. "I'm even more worried about this," she thought to herself
Soon, several people arrived at Hagrid's hut
"You're here!" Hagrid greeted everyone directly at the door. "Hurry! The food has just come out of the oven! While it's hot."
Hagrid dragged several people into the room. After Ivey and the others sat down, he took out a tray from the back. It was covered with a cover, so you couldn't see what was inside. But there was still a sense of anxiety in the room.
Pasty taste.
"Do you think this tastes edible?" Betty asked in a low voice.
“Don’t worry if it’s a bit mushy, as long as it’s for human consumption.” Ivey doesn’t have high requirements for Hagrid.
"Relax." Seeing everyone's nervous faces, Hagrid comforted him and said, "I've tried it myself. It tastes great."
"Really! Then I'll be relieved." Harry breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you sure you can rest assured?" Ron whispered, "The rock biscuits Hagrid gave you were also tried by him."
"..."
"Alright, everyone, open your eyes wide." Hagrid suddenly said, "Special - mink steak arthropod burger!"
"..." Everyone looked at the five big black steamed buns on the table with pain.
Of course, calling it pitch black is a bit exaggerated. There are some lettuce, tomatoes and other vegetables inside the steamed bun. But Hagrid seems to have grilled it, making it look a little wilted. What’s even more exaggerated is that the two sides of the steamed bun are still different from each other.
Four spider legs protrude from the inside. Vegetable juice and oil are dripping down the spider legs.
"How's it going? Not bad, right?" Hagrid looked at everyone with a smile.
"Uh... not bad" Harry said without conscience.
"Hehe - I got the inspiration from Muggle burgers. It took me a lot of effort. I had to first choose the strongest waist strips from ferrets and pair them with my secret ferret-flavored cheese slices and exclusive fluorescent liquid.
Herbal sauce. But unfortunately, I couldn't find a suitable substitute."
"Next - is my inspiration, which can be said to be the finishing touch. In order to increase the taste, I added fried eight-eyed spider legs to it. The raw material is the newly born little spider legs.
Big and small, crispy, tender and juicy, with a great taste. It can be said to be a perfect match.”
After showing off proudly, Hagrid urged, "Eat it while it's hot. It's a bit big. I wanted to cut it for you, but it didn't cut. Just eat it like this."
"..."
"What's wrong? Don't you like it?" Seeing several people looking around, Hagrid felt a little disappointed.
Hearing this, Betty poked Ivy's waist and looked at him to tell him to eat quickly.
"Why should I eat it!" Ivey lowered his voice.
"You have the best health. If you don't eat, who will?" Betty replied confidently.
Harry and the other three also looked at him
"I -" Ivy choked out. He turned around and said, "Eat it! Harry"
Harry felt dizzy and pretended to be dead.
He turned to look at the two ladies again. They didn't speak, just looked at him quietly. The meaning was obvious - if you don't go to hell, who will?
"..." He turned his head towards Ron and said, "Go! Ron"
"..." Ron wanted to reply that it doesn't matter to me.
"If you still want to eat delicious food in the future, come here."
One sentence choked Ron's lifeline.
"... Damn it, I'll fight for it!" Ron gritted his teeth and picked up a burger.
Upon seeing this, Ivey also picked up the burger. The two looked at each other.
