389 Game 3
Obviously, Kakarov's run away was beyond everyone's expectations, especially those of Demstrong students. According to what everyone discovered, he might have run away after dinner last year.
Moreover, in order to hide his whereabouts, he set up a magic in his room that could be activated by knocking on the door before running away, so the students who greeted him in the morning naturally did not find that Kakarov behind the door had disappeared.
Because of Kakarov's extreme attitude in school before, he heard from the door in the morning saying he was uncomfortable, and no one dared to disturb him all day long.
Until now when we needed to assemble, we found that only the words from the door were heard, and the students of the Demstrong who discovered that the situation had changed. After plucking up the courage to enter the room, they found that the principal ran away.
Of course, as the principal of one of the three schools in the Triumph Championship and one of the referee team members, Kakarov's runaway brought a series of problems.
This is why several principals and Ministry of Magic officials need to hold closed-door talks.
For them, Principal Demstrong's run away is not only a problem with the school Demstrong, but also involves all aspects of the Triple Championship, so they must negotiate a charter.
A few minutes later, the two principals and the Ministry of Magic staff all walked out of the office with ugly faces, especially Fudge's face was the most ugly.
No matter what, it is a scandal that the principal of a school disappeared before the competition. Even if he does not hold any conspiracy theories, it is a very bad thing for everyone.
More importantly, for Fudge, who entered the Ministry of Magic as soon as he graduated, knew a lot of things, so he could naturally vaguely guess why Kakarov ran away.
So for Fudge, Kakarov's runaway was equivalent to revealing a secret he had been hiding before, and this was exactly what he tried hard to avoid.
Especially when the discussion was just now, Mrs. Maxim insisted on canceling the competition. Because she felt that the two things that first one of her students died and then the disappearance of Principal Demstrong made him lose confidence in the competition.
But for Fudge, the Trio Championship was the last fig leaf for him and the British Ministry of Magic after this series of problems. Naturally, he could not stop now.
As a result, a few people fell into a debate, and it was not until the two sides reached a compromise: the game will be as planned for a while, but Fudge needs to mobilize Aurors to solve possible safety issues.
It has to be said that the wizards were really mobilized quickly. While everyone was having dinner, Fudge transferred more than half of the Auror, who was on duty, from London as quickly as possible, appeared in Hogwarts.
Then, with the cooperation of these professional Aurors, the strikers who had previously stationed here conducted a comprehensive inspection of the entire competition site and eliminated some possible hidden dangers.
In addition, these strikers and Aurors also divided into small groups, and then patrolled around the maze on brooms or walking.
Of course, everyone in the auditorium had turned their attention back to dinner at this time. Although the late arrival of the Dermstrong team members and the discussions of the principals made everyone a little nervous, everyone became calm after seeing the professor's calm face.
But then again, today's dinner tasted good, and everyone ate a lot. When the magical ceiling turned from blue to dark purple twilight, Dumbledore stood up at the teacher's desk and everyone calmed down.
"Ladies and gentlemen, in five minutes, I will invite you to Quidditch Stadium to watch the last event of the Triumph. Now ask the Warriors and Mr. Bagman to the stadium."
Venetto and Harry stood up, and the Hogwarts students applauded them together and wished them all the best in the competition. After waved to everyone, they walked out of the auditorium with two contestants from two other schools in applause.
In the middle, Bagman tried to say a few words to Harry. It seemed that he should have put the bet on Harry, but now it seems that his gambling game is not very likely to make money.
Shortly after the contestants went to Quidditch Stadium, Hugo and the audience also entered the stands around the competition venue under the guidance of the professors.
It was already completely unrecognizable here. A twenty-foot-high hedge surrounded the edge of the site. There was a gap in front of them, and that was the entrance to the large maze. The passage inside was black and scary.
Under the guidance of all the senior leaders, student union presidents and professors, hundreds of students sat in the seats, and the air was filled with the sound of excited words and mixed footsteps. The sky was now clear and dark blue, and stars began to appear.
Because the seat was relatively forward, Hugo and the others could clearly see several professors coming to the contestants in full arms and then instructed them.
"We will patrol outside the maze," Professor McGonagall told the Warriors. "If you encounter difficulties and want to get rescue, you can fire a red spark into the sky. We will have someone to help you. Do you understand?"
The warriors nodded together.
"Okay, you guys go!" Bagman said happily to the four participating players.
So the four people walked away in different directions and scattered around the maze. At this time, Bagman pointed his wand at his throat and chanted "The sound was loud", so his magic-amplified sound echoed in the stands.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the last game of the Triumph is about to begin! Let me talk about the order of appearances, based on their previous points. The order of entry to the venue is Veneto Vittorio, Harry Potter, Fleur de la Cour, and Wickerdo Crum."
"Now...Veneto, listen to my whistle!" said Bagman, "Three-Two-Two-Two-
As the whistle sounded, Venetto was the first to rush into the entrance in front of him, and soon disappeared into the dark bushes. Then, five minutes later, Harry rushed into the maze with another whistle.
The tall hedge casts black shadows on the path. Whether it is because the hedge is tall and dense, or because of magic, Harry entered the maze, and the audience's voices were gone.
The darkness in the maze made people feel a little uneasy, but soon Harry discovered a hole appeared in the hedge in front of him, and the branches and leaves were spread all over the ground.
Harry smiled and then got into the cave. Obviously, only Veneto could use physical means to open a big hole in such a magic-imposed hedge.
Sure enough, when he carefully crawled into the shrinking hole, he saw a shadow that looked not small appeared opposite the cave.
At first, Harry was startled by the stretched arthropods, but later he discovered that the eight-eyed giant spider, who looked as big as a calf, was dead.
