Penello has had a rough time in recent days.
Because while she became Cowen's dance partner, she also became a class enemy in the eyes of other girls.
Even many of the girls in 'Beauxbaton' showed some malice towards Penelope, not to mention the girls in 'Hogwarts'.
Fortunately, there are not many days of such suffering. After a few days, the Yule Ball will come.
Both Kewen and Penello are not short of money, so their dresses are very exquisite and gorgeous.
Penello chose a bright red wrap-chest dress, which was tight at the top and loose at the bottom, hanging down to the top of the bare-foot dress, which was artistically inlaid with many gemstones.
The long hair was pulled up high, and a shawl matching the long skirt was put on, which completely exuded Penello's charm.
Combined with her good looks, Penello couldn't help but become the most eye-catching beauty in the whole ball, bar none.
Ke Wen was just wearing a normal dress and suit, but the material of the clothes was extraordinary, and there were faintly floating colors.
Coupled with his stature that overwhelms other students, he also stands out from the crowd.
The dance begins.
As a warrior of the 'Triwizard Tournament', Ke Wen has the honor of leading the opening dance.
As the door of the banquet hall opened, Kewen behaved like a gentleman, accompanied by Penello, stepped into the hall stepping on the beat of the music amidst soothing music and applause from the crowd on both sides.
Kewen pursed his lips and smiled all the way, while Penello beside him smiled even more touchingly and heart-wrenchingly amidst the envious sighs of the people around her.
After the four warriors and their dance partners walked into the center of the stage, they spread out and stood up. Professor Flitwick, who was directing the band on the stage, smiled and waved his wand, and began to direct the band to play dance music.
Ke Wen and Penello looked at each other, and as the music sounded, the two smiled in harmony, and then danced.
As their postures rotated, the corners of Penello's dresses stretched out symmetrically and turned gorgeously, making the figures of the two of them look like a group of dancing flame elves on the stage.
The next moment, the dresses on the two of them activated the enchanting effect at the same time, and many gorgeous magical auras suddenly burst out, slowly circling around the two of them, as if they were in a galaxy.
Envious of others.
Everyone stared straight at their eyes, and it took a while to recover, and then they all entered the dance floor with their partners and began to dance together...
This dance is memorable.
Since then, there have been many pairs of mandarin ducks in the castle, and there are often voices with relish in the woods, grass, and even remote corridors.
Because of this, the number of followers around Ke Wen has decreased a lot, which finally gave him a lot of free space.
Two months passed in a flash, and the second game was coming soon.
There were still two days before the competition. On this day, Kewen was going to practice spells in the 'Room of Requirement' at night. He didn't want to just enter the common room, but found Harry lying alone on the sofa.
The sound of Ke Wen's footsteps caught Harry's attention. After seeing it, he immediately sat up and said, "Senior, haven't you rested yet?"
"Oh yes."
It's hard to say that I'm going out for a night trip, Ke Wen made an excuse and said: "My two roommates don't know what they did during the day, and they snored a bit loudly tonight, so I will hide first when I come out."
After being fooled, Ke Wen asked back: "What about you? Why don't you go back to rest so late?"
"I... no, it's nothing." Harry, as always, likes to hide everything from others, so he smiled very perfunctorily and said, "I'm just, just thinking about something."
Seeing this, Ke Wen looked directly into the other person's eyes, smiled and said, "Is there anything I can do for you?"
After hesitating for a moment, Harry shook his head again, squeezed out a smile and refused: "Thank you, it's just some small things, don't bother senior."
At this time, Ke Wen had already read the thoughts in the other party's mind with "Ingesting Divine Sense". It turned out that Harry was very anxious because he had not solved the clues in the golden egg.
Knowing the situation, Ke Wen sat down on the sofa opposite Harry, and then asked pretending to be chatty: "By the way, Harry, have you solved the secret of the golden egg?"
Harry was taken aback for a moment, but immediately forced a forced smile, and nodded in response: "Yes senior, I untied it, and it stumped me for a long time, how about you, senior?"
"I untied it a long time ago, the day after I got the golden egg."
Ke Wen continued to pretend, but actually reminded him: "The voice in the golden egg is the singing of 'mermaid', you probably don't understand, that's why it took so long to unlock the secret, right?"
Harry was taken aback again, and couldn't help being surprised: "That's... I mean, that unbearable noise is the singing of a mermaid?"
With a look of disbelief on his face, Harry continued: "The mermaid singing is not..."
"Huh?"
Cowen interrupted at the right time, lest Harry continue to speak, which would reveal the fact that the other party had not unlocked the golden egg.
Therefore, Kewen pretended to be surprised and said, "Didn't you hear the singing? Then how did you unlock the secret of the golden egg?"
"Singing?" Harry was at a loss, but quickly nodded and lied: "Yes, singing, that's right! I heard singing!"
"It's amazing, isn't it?"
Ke Wen pretended not to see anything wrong with Harry's performance, and then said with a smile: "The mermaid's singing can only be heard in the water, but once out of the water, the singing becomes a shrill noise, that's how magical creatures are. magic."
"Yes, yes! That's right!" Harry's expression became excited, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but grinned upwards, and he nodded repeatedly: "I mean! I only discovered this later! But I didn't know it was The singing sound, I thought it was some kind of magic spell effect!"
After all, he was not stupid, and Harry knew how to lie to himself.
But now that the secret was unlocked from Cowen, Harry couldn't bear to stay here.
So, itching for a few more minutes in the common room, Harry yawned in a very fake way.
"Sorry, Mister Science!" Harry got up from the sofa, scratching his head apologetically and said, "I'm a little sleepy, so I'll excuse you first."
"Oh, of course." Cowen responded: "Go back to sleep, I will continue to stay here for a while."
"Good senior!" Harry nodded quickly, and then gave Ke Wen a smiling face.
The footsteps appeared to be hurried towards the stairs, but Harry stopped after not far.
Turning around and hesitating for a moment, Harry finally asked, "By the way, senior, where did you unlock the secret? I just borrowed a bucket before, so I didn't get to appreciate the mermaid's singing properly."
Hearing this, Ke Wen turned his head and replied: "I'm on the fourth floor, oh no, it's the fifth floor for you, you should know, right? The prefect's bathroom on the fifth floor."
Harry's expression could no longer conceal his excitement at the moment, he nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes! I know! Thank you senior for reminding me! I think I will go there tomorrow to enjoy the mermaid's singing carefully!"
"Okay." Ke Wen nodded with a smile.
Saying goodbye to Cowen again, Harry ran up the stairs with a rush of footsteps.
Not long after, Ke Wen's ears moved slightly, and he heard some cautious footsteps.
Spread out the 'intake of divine thoughts', and immediately, Harry's voice was captured.
Apparently, Harry couldn't wait to unlock the secret of the golden egg, and now he's wearing an 'invisibility cloak' to go out for a night tour.
With his back to Harry's position, Kewen on the sofa pretended that he didn't know anything, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Soon, the sound of the 'Portrait of the Fat Lady' opening from the door of the common room sounded.
After waiting for another ten minutes, guessing that Harry had gone far away, Kewen got up and left the lounge, heading towards the 'Room of Requirement'...
On February 24, overcast.
After breakfast, all the teachers and students of the entire castle began to walk out of the academy, boarded boats at the pier, and gathered towards the center of the Black Lake.
The venue for the second game was the Black Lake Center, where the elevated was prepared early for referees and spectators to watch the game on it.
In the icy damp and cold wind, Ke Wen and three other contestants gathered on a platform.
Both Harry and Krum are dressed in vests and shorts, while Fleur is in a blue one-piece swimsuit, which perfectly outlines the figure.
The three of them seemed to be trembling in the cold wind, until the principal and the professor who followed behind them cast a warming spell on them, and then their blue faces gradually returned to normal.
But Ke Wen was different, he was still dressed in normal clothes, as if he was not prepared to go into the water at all.
At this time, the referee began to announce the rules of the game.
Director Crouch told everyone that last night, every warrior lost a precious thing, and the thing was sleeping at the bottom of the Black Lake. Each warrior only had one hour to go deep into the bottom of the lake to find the precious thing. return.
Hearing this, Kewen immediately looked over to the group of girls in Ravenclaw College, and when he found that Spirit was yelling something to him, Kewen's mind suddenly skipped a beat.
Apparently, the Academy has 'sinked' Penello.
Cowen was a little worried because he ignored the time.
He didn't check the memory data carefully before, and he thought that the time to put the "precious object" at the bottom of the lake was in the morning.
Now, the referee said that the warriors' "treasure" had sunk to the bottom of the lake last night, which made Cowen feel a little bad.
You must know that Penello is not like other admirers. If you go late, you don't know how to be complained by the other party.
Therefore, Ke Wen immediately took a step forward and stood on the edge of the platform.
"Cowen."
Seeing this, Professor McGonagall who was following behind couldn't help asking: "Are you going to go into the water like this? Clothes?"
"It's fine."
Ke Wen turned his head and responded to the professor. After all, he didn't want to take off his clothes to reveal his muscles, otherwise his muscles would be even more dangerous in the future.
At this moment, a salute was fired, which represented the official start of the game...
Thanks to 'Snow of the Setting Sun', 'sMoon Demon Shadows', 'sw6767', all friends for their support!
