Chapter 183 New School Year
"Why are you here?"
The door of the box was opened, and a familiar platinum-colored head appeared. Draco frowned and looked at the two of them suspiciously:
"I've been looking for you for a long time, why don't you go and stay with everyone else?"
Jian Yu quickly evaded the question by saying it was quiet, but Draco forced his way in with Gower Crabbe and filled the box to the brim.
"Did you know?" he began to chatter, "My father told me that there is a Triwizard Tournament this year - Beauxbatons and Durmstrang..."
He could still start his chat with "My Dad" and send 99+ chat messages unilaterally. The small carriage quickly became his personal show:
"My dad considered sending me to Durmstrang instead of Hogwarts. He knew the headmaster there, but my mom didn't want me to go so far away."
"Dad said that Durmstrang's attitude towards the Dark Arts is much more reasonable than Hogwarts. The students at Durmstrang are really learning the Dark Arts, unlike us, who are learning some crappy defense skills..."
After three years, Jian Yu has learned to selectively ignore his overly long conversations.
But Durmstrang and Beauxbatons piqued her interest.
Other magic schools in Europe... the quality of education is good...
She felt that she could definitely transfer schools!
I just wonder if there is such a thing as exchange students in the magical world?
......
The train arrived at the station soon and the students swarmed into the auditorium.
The opening ceremony of the new semester didn't seem to be anything special.
The professors sat in their chairs, the sorting hats sang, the freshmen were sorted... applauded... had their meals...
When the remaining crumbs on the plate disappeared and it became clean and shiny, Dumbledore stood up again.
"All right!" he said loudly, "I ask everyone to pay attention to the following announcements!"
"This year's banned items include: Screaming Yo-Yos, Spike Flying Saucers, and Combo Boomerangs. The entire list includes 437 items..."
Jian Yu had no doubt that the list included most of the products she and the twins had smuggled in.
"Game consoles are allowed to be used this year. You need to submit them to the deans of each college to set a time limit for playing games—"
"I am also very sorry to inform you that there will be no House Quidditch Cup this year."
There was a chorus of boos in the hall, half at the time limit on the game, and half at the lost Quidditch match.
"Because a big event will start in October and last throughout the school year - I'm sure you will have a lot of fun -"
But his words were interrupted as the door to the auditorium slammed open.
A gray-haired man with a long cane and wrapped in a black cloak walked towards the faculty table. It was a horrible, scarred face. One of the eyes was very small, while the other bright blue eye was very large. It moved up and down and left and right in its eye socket, looking at the auditorium and the classmates.
"Please allow me to introduce our new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Professor Moody."
Almost no teacher or student applauded, everyone was stunned by the strange eye.
Jian Yu didn't care much about his appearance.
She had realised that, as Slughorn had said, the Defence Against the Dark Arts professors were all once in a year.
It's just a matter of one year anyway, why pay too much attention to others?
Seeing that no one was applauding, Dumbledore cleared his throat and tactfully returned to the previous topic:
"I am very pleased to inform you that the Triwizard Tournament will be held at Hogwarts this year."
The tense atmosphere was finally broken, and the students exclaimed and laughed, and began to whisper to each other.
"...our Departments of International Magical Cooperation and Sports and Athletics have decided that the time is right for another attempt..."
Dumbledore continued to talk about the Triwizard Tournament, but Jian Yu's brain was working rapidly.
Harry Potter seems to have a protagonist trophy for each grade... For example, the Philosopher's Stone, Basilisk, Dementor and Sirius in previous years...
Then it seems that this year's spoils are simple and clear, it is the trophy of the Triwizard Tournament!
According to the normal plot development, Harry will definitely win the championship trophy and become famous overseas!
She believes that she absolutely needs to give him a hand so that the plot can get on the right track and the protagonist can get adequate training and growth.
There must be no case of her interfering in other people's affairs.
Another thing she should do is to build good relationships with the headmasters of Beauxbatons or Durmstrang and take the opportunity to propose exchange students.
At the same time, Percy, her connection at the Department of International Magical Cooperation, might be able to help with the procedures.
She thought Dumbledore should have no reason to stop her from learning about communication.
Perhaps he will also help facilitate——
She could see his resolve was wavering...because of Trelawney's prophecy...her staying here would bring misfortune.
This approach is good for everyone.
Soon, Dumbledore on the stage announced the last piece of news:
"In the new school year, I discussed with the deans and decided to carry out a curriculum reform!"
“Some of our classes will be the first to conduct a pilot, with students from four colleges forming groups to study!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the students were in an uproar, talking a lot, and the noise almost blew the roof off.
"What should I do?" Daphne grabbed Jian Yu's arm in panic and cried out, "I can't get close to you... I can't be in the same team with you!"
Theodore looked as unhappy as she did.
Draco, who was sitting opposite him, turned pale and prayed:
"Merlin bless you - one cannot, or at least shouldn't, be paired with Potter or Weasley!"
The little Slytherin snakes all looked panicked. They all realized one thing at the same time -
His life depended on the other three team members! It is even tied to Gryffindor!
Apparently the little lions of Gryffindor were also aware of this, and their eyes met those of the little snakes in the air from a distance.
They looked at each other with disgust and showed expressions of disdain to each other.
But Jian Yu was very calm.
Her eyes met Hermione's on the other side of the hall.
Both of them smiled with satisfaction.
I've confirmed through eye contact that he's someone who can carry the team.
In her mind, she had already imagined a scene in which she was lying down and Hermione was bleeding!
Little did she know that Hermione on the other side had the same opinion as her hero.
Although it’s a bit embarrassing to win without doing anything like that...but that’s Yu, a true genius!
Is there any difference between doing group work with her and lying down?
That's a ceiling-level person!
