On the south side of Diagon Alley, in the "Guide to Defense" office, editor-in-chief Remus Lupin is frowning and staring at the parchment in his hand, carefully checking the manuscript of the next month's magazine.

"Sirius, are we really going to do this?"

Lu Ping put down the column about the Triwizard Tournament, raised his head and looked at Sirius who was reading the "Daily Prophet" with his feet on the opposite side.

"Why not?" Sirius asked back. "We are telling the truth."

"Dumbledore will definitely be upset, you know, that will make this Triwizard Tournament a stain that cannot be erased." Lupin knew very well that once the news that Karkaroff was a Death Eater leaked out, he would What kind of disturbances are set off in the UK.

"Stain? This game is already full of taints." Sirius sneered: "Since the fourth warrior appeared in the Triwizard Tournament, since Karkaroff was removed from the referee's seat by the audience, the entire Triwizard Tournament Still need to worry about being said by others?"

Lupin was silent, because it was a fact, and facts are sometimes more cruel than lies.

"Dumbledore invited Mad-Eye to teach at school. I suspect it was just to guard against Karkaroff." Sirius made no secret of his dislike of Karkaroff. It should be said that he hates all Death Eaters. "We all Knowing that Karkaroff is particularly good at acting, he successfully persuaded the Ministry of Magic to release him, and later became the headmaster of Durmstrang somehow. Don't you think that guy is suspicious?"

"So, you intend to use this to focus everyone's attention on Karkaroff and avoid him in private..." Lupin was interrupted by Sirius before he could finish speaking.

"What you said is only one of the reasons." Sirius dropped the "Daily Prophet" and said to his old friend: "This is the opportunity for the "Guide to Defense" to take off."

Lupin froze for a moment, and did not understand what Sirius meant for a while.

"Remus, you have to understand that if the "Guide to Defense" is to be widely recognized in the magic world, we need to find a different way. We need to make everyone understand that the knowledge taught in the "Guide to Defense" is useful, and the news that we tell them is also It is true, no one wants to be deceived. The audience needs the truth, even if the truth is very cruel.” Sirius recalled Albert's words.

One day, you will need the "Guide to Defense" to speak for yourself. Before that, let as many people accept it as possible, agree with it, and believe it.

As for making money, don't worry, when the time comes, you will naturally not be afraid of not making money.

Although Sirius didn't understand what Albert God said, he believed Albert and was willing to trust the guy who could predict the future.

"In fact, many of the contents in the Daily Prophet are fabricated at will. It is very good to have three points of truth." Sirius said, "Everyone needs the truth."

"Oh, okay! Now that you have decided." Lupin's eyes fell on the parchment in his hand and suddenly asked, "Mr. Anderson asked you to do this?"

Before Sirius could answer, Lupin continued, "I always feel that he seems to be planning something."

"To be precise, he should be preparing for the future." Sirius said his judgment. "He probably predicted some terrible future."

"A terrible future?" Lupin asked, raising his eyebrows. "Did he tell you anything?"

"He didn't reveal much news, but I think he probably meant that." Sirius carefully sorted out the news he had received from Albert, and said in a joke, "Maybe Anderson wants to tell us that Voldemort will make a comeback. "

"It's not funny at all," Lupin said suddenly.

"If it was before, I definitely don't believe it." Sirius didn't finish the rest, but the meaning was already obvious.

"Does Dumbledore know?" Lupin asked again.

"I think he must know." Sirius said, "Dumbledore is more acute than us. After learning that Albert can predict, do you think he really will not go to Albert to predict?"

"Right."

Silence fell again in the office of the Defense Guide.

In fact, without waiting for the "Defense Guide" to be released next month, Hogwarts Castle has already been fried, and I don't know who it is. It quietly stirred up the topic of why Karkaroff gave Albert 1 point, Hogwarts. There were all kinds of amazing rumors in Watts Castle one after another, and they all sounded reasonable.

According to the accurate information provided by someone, cheating among schools is actually normal. Karkaroff's unscrupulous way to win is actually very common in inter-school competitions, but he did not expect to do too much, unfortunately, hit the steel plate and overturned directly.

It was also said that Karkaroff, the principal of Durmstrang, looked down upon the Muggle wizard very much and did not want the Muggle wizard to get high scores in the Triwizard Tournament, so he arrogantly gave Albert 1 point.

This argument has a market far more than the previous statements.

Durmstrang does not recruit Muggle wizards, saying that they look down on Muggle wizards and can still be widely recognized.

After all, wouldn't it be normal for a guy who can mix with Slytherin students to think that way?

Some people think that it is the combination of these reasons that led Karkaroff to give Albert 1 point.

Soon, even more exciting news spread from the school: Karkaroff is actually a Death Eater.

This breaking news spread like wildfire. As the minions of mysterious people, it is natural to hate and hate Muggle wizards.

Then it came out that Harry Potter had become a warrior of Hogwarts somehow. It was actually a ghost of Karkaroff. He used a powerful obfuscation curse to deceive the Goblet of Fire and turn Harry Potter into The Warriors intend to use the game to murder Harry Potter's life. "

Before everyone slowed down, someone claimed that he had seen Karkaroff sneak close to the Goblet of Fire during the night during the Warriors registration period, and directly settled the matter of registering him for Harry.

These rumors are like fireworks exploding in the sky, and more and more world-beating news exploded one after another, becoming the topic of chatting among the students after dinner.

For example, the Dark Mark at the Quidditch World Cup last time was actually made by Karkaroff, who was hiding among the evil Death Eaters wearing masks.

These rumors spread quickly, and even the professors of the school heard similar rumors and got together to discuss this matter. After all, they weren't students who didn't know anything. It was clear that Karkaroff was a Death Eater, especially since among them there was a former Auror crazy eye who had caught Karkaroff.

Dumbledore didn’t want this incident to affect the friendship between Hogwarts and Durmstrang, so the professors never revealed to the students that Karkaroff was a Death Eater. Fortunately, since the last time After being kicked out of the referee's seat, Karkaroff did not show up at Hogwarts, and the turmoil should soon be subdued.

However, they never thought that the Karkarov incident was actually caused by someone deliberately in order to divert everyone's attention.

"Do you really need me to spread Krum's news?" Lee Jordan was very excited about the Karkaroff incident recently, and has always wanted to secretly make another big news.

"No, this storm will continue for a long time." Albert vetoed Lee Jordan's show operation. This guy intends to use the flying curse to provoke Krum's underwear in the dead of night, and after he completely destroys it with magic, he will spread the news that Krum's underwear has been stolen.

"Are you sure, everyone doesn't seem to pay attention to this matter anymore." Lee Jordan said regretfully, "They are more concerned about the Christmas ball now."

George imitated Professor McGonagall's tone and said, "The Christmas ball will undoubtedly give us a chance to relax."

"Now everyone is saying that Dumbledore bought eight hundred barrels of flavour mead from Mrs. Rosmerta of Three Broomsticks?" Fred couldn't help but vomit, "Damn it, where is Mrs. Rosmerta going to collect it from? Eight hundred barrels of flavored mead?"

"I think it might be true that he booked Weird Sisters." Lee Jordan speculated. "It's not the first time this kind of thing."

To be honest, Albert is not interested in the songs of the Strange Sisters, and he thinks it is more reliable to let Bosbatten’s Yanila come on stage to sing.

"I asked Professor McGonagall for you. She said you can invite Isabelle to the ball, but she thinks this is a great opportunity for us to interact with foreign guests."

The three are well aware of Albert's style and style, and 80% will not invite anyone other than his girlfriend to be his dance partner.

"Actually, you can invite the Warriors of Boothbarton, I don't think she will refuse you 80% of the time." Fred said without hesitation.

"If you let other girls hear you, they will probably beat you into a pig." George reminded.

"Right, there is one more thing." Lee Jordan said suddenly, "The Wizards Card Club finals will be held early next month."

"Who do you think is most likely to win this Wizarding Card Championship?" Albert asked.

"Digory, Granger, Lovegood and Shanna are running for the championship." Lee Jordan said without hesitation, "Granger and Lovegood are the second complements, but I think Granger is against the Wizards. Her enthusiasm is not high, 80% will not put too much thought into the wizard card, she can definitely become a prefect, and she also has a "vomiting" club."

"As for Lovegood, her enthusiasm for the wizard card is enough, but I am a little worried about her organizational ability." Lee Jordan continued, "I heard that she was called a mad girl, and she didn’t get along well with others. ."

"Anyone else?" Albert asked again.

"Although our club has a large number of people, it is not easy to pick a suitable one."

"Let’s wait for the wizard card game to end." Albert thought for a while and said, "If Luna wins, you might have to invite her to the ball."

Fred and George turned their heads to look at Lee Jordan.

"Anyway, you haven't found a partner yet. If she wins, just tell her that she should not refuse." Albert stretched out his hand and patted Lee Jordan on the shoulder, begging you with an expression.

"Fred and George haven't found a partner yet, and maybe she doesn't want to dance with Albert?" Lee Jordan did his last dying struggle. "Well, if she really wins, who will Whoever does not find a partner will invite her."

"No problem, we can definitely find a partner before you." Fred and George were very confident in themselves.

As soon as the four of them entered the common room, they heard the girls talking about the Christmas ball.

After looking at each other, Fred and George walked towards the girls together. After a while, they returned.

"It's done, now you have no partners." Fred patted Lee Jordan on the shoulder and said.

"Who did you invite, Angelina?"

"Yes." Fred said without hesitation. "She agreed."

"What about you?" Albert asked George, "Alia?"

"After all, having been a Quidditch teammate for so many years, there is always some advantage in this regard." George said with a smile.

"Of course, it may also be that we are handsome enough." Fred touched his chin and said narcissistically, "Girls like handsome boys, just like boys like beautiful girls."

The girls over there couldn't help but laugh, obviously amused by Fred's words.

"The movements of these two **** are really fast." Lee Jordan gritted his teeth and said, "No, I really want to hit people now, I really want to do something big."

"No hurry, in two days, when the "Guide to Defense" comes out, there will be a big deal." Albert said meaningfully.historical

"Damn, you didn't take me."

The release of the "Guide to Defense" poured gasoline on the death Eater storm that was about to go out, and the Karkaroff incident, which was about to be forgotten by the students, was completely detonated.

"Defense Guide" mentioned Mr. "1 point" in the Triwizard Tournament column.

Yes, Lupin did not directly specify Karkaroff, but everyone knows who this "1 point" gentleman is, and analyzed the reason why 1 point is given to 1 point. For Durmstrang’s victory, he will do whatever he can to The crime of looking down on the Muggle wizard was detained on his head, and the reason was also stated: Karkaroff was a Death Eater.

Karkaroff was caught by a crazy-eyed man, UU reading www.uukanshu. com was pardoned by the Ministry of Magic for betraying a large number of companions.

This is all right, explode directly on the spot!

The news that Durmstrang’s principal was actually a Death Eater quickly spread in the British magical world, and the sales of "Guide to Defense" also continued to rise. Many wizards suddenly discovered that there were such magazines around them. I am willing to buy a copy of "Guide to Defense" to see what is going on in the Triwizard Tournament?

Because the "Defense Guide" has a detailed and fair analysis of the entire game and the magic used by the Warriors.

Of course, this matter is not over yet. Many people send letters to Karkaroff, send evil curses, and even yelling letters. Recently, many students always say that they can often hear yelling letters around Durmstrang’s ships. sound.

Dumbledore was also unlucky. The parents believed that the presence of a Death Eater at Hogwarts might threaten the lives of the students, and they unanimously demanded that Karkaroff should be taken out of the school.

In fact, after the incident was exposed, Karkaroff could no longer stay in the UK. In Britain, which was deeply persecuted by Voldemort, no one would welcome a Death Eater.
