Chapter 175: trust
problem occurs!
The day after the second game, Kewen learned a message from Professor McGonagall, who seemed worried.
Mr. Barty Crouch, the director of the "International Magic Cooperation Department" as the referee, was found in the Forbidden Forest.
Judging from the intact body of Director Crouch, it is clear that someone has used the'death curse' on him.
This matter did not spread, only a few people knew about it.
Because neither the Ministry of Magic nor the Academy wanted to cause panic among the students.
In the end, I could only lie that Director Crouch was unable to participate in the refereeing of the third game because of other work reasons...
That night, Cowen found Harry in the ‘common room’.
After nodding to the students around Harry, Kewen greeted: "Harry, do you have time?"
"certainly!"
After the game, Harry had learned from others about the time when Cowen was out of the water in the second game. Not stupid, he had already guessed after considering the water situation at the time.
Therefore, after hearing Kewen's greeting, he couldn't help being a little excited, and his eyes revealed a look of gratitude.
Seeing this, Kewen smiled slightly and said, "Can you go out with me?"
"Cowen, what can you do with Harry?" As a member of the inseparable trio, Ron asked curiously next to him: "Or if you need help with anything, I can help."
"Nothing big." Cowen smiled and said perfunctorily: "It's just something about the next game."
"Oh, that's the case." Ron lost interest when he heard the words. After all, he didn't participate in the competition, so there was no common topic.
Seeing this, Harry took the topic, got up and said: "I have time, chief of science and literature, where shall we talk?"
"Go to my bedroom, there is no one there." Corvin responded, then nodded again at Ron and Hermione, turned and walked to the stairs.
Harry quickly followed.
Shortly after entering the bedroom, Cowen greeted Harry to take a seat on the sofa.
Before Kewen could speak, Harry said gratefully: "Senior! In the lake that day, you were helping me all the time!?"
"Oh?" Kewen was taken aback. He didn't expect Harry to mention it, so he smiled and said, "You know?"
"Hmm!" Harry nodded very quickly, took a deep breath and said, "I want to understand everything later!"
"At that time, when facing the mermaid's obstruction, when facing the'Grindillo', and also! When I was about to suffocate and coma!"
Harry counted them one by one, and then said in a grateful tone: "Those times! It was all seniors, you were quietly protecting me, right? Thank you! Otherwise...otherwise I don't know..."
"Okay, I received your thanks." Kewen smiled and interrupted: "But you should also thank the principal, he asked me to take care of you during the game."
"Anyway, anyway, thank you, senior, for protecting me!"
After Harry finished speaking, he seemed to be a little hastily bowed to Cowen.
Cowen accepted the other party's attitude with peace of mind, and when Harry straightened up again, he said, "No need to talk about this. I'm here to ask you something."
"Please tell me." Harry seemed to answer all questions and made a gesture of listening carefully.
Very pleased with the other party's performance at this time, Kewen pursed his lips and smiled, and then asked: "Mr. Crouch, did you discover it?"
"this……"
Harry was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly hesitated, whether he should tell Kewen the matter.
Because he went to Dumbledore afterwards, the other party told him not to tell the story of Director Crouch.
Seeing Harry’s entanglement, Covin simply stopped asking, but changed the subject: “If you’re embarrassed, you don’t have to think about it. This matter doesn’t matter much to me. By the way, the'Live Map' Is it with you?"
When the topic changed, Harry breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly replied: "Yes! I kept it in the bookcase."
"Can you borrow it for me?" Kewen said: "I may need to use it until the end of the semester."
"Of course!" Harry nodded his head: "The map was originally given to me by the senior, and I didn't use it much. If you want to use it, just take it back."
"That's not necessary." Kewen smiled and shook his head slightly: "I will graduate this year and I won't use it in the future, so you should keep it after I use it up."
Harry thought about it for a while, and then he nodded and agreed, then he was about to get up, and said at the same time, "Then I'll go back to the bedroom and get it for you now."
"Wait first." Corvin raised his hand and pressed Harry's arm to make him sit back on the sofa.
Harry took his seat and asked curiously: "Anything else senior?"
"That's it..." Cowen showed some hesitation, paused for a moment, then looked directly at Harry's eyes and said in a serious tone: "Harry, can you please trust me?"
"Why do you say that?" Harry was puzzled, but immediately nodded: "Of course, I mean, of course I believe in you, senior."
"Thank you." Cowen smiled and continued solemnly: "Then Harry, listen carefully!"
Seeing Cowen's seriousness, Harry couldn't help but concentrate.
"A few months later, or to be precise, in the third game." Cowen said in a deep voice: "I might make some moves that make you misunderstood. At that time, I need you. Complete trust in me! Is it okay?"
"This..." Harry was confused by Cowen's words, and couldn't think about it for a while.
Seeing this, Kewen said again: "Do you trust me?"
Harry nodded subconsciously.
Kewen raised his hand and patted the other person's shoulder: "Don't think too much now, you can ask Principal Dumbledore later, just remember this conversation between us for now."
"Good, good senior."
Harry was like a puppet, so he could only nod his head first.
"Okay." Kewen smiled, leaning back on the sofa: "That's all I want to tell you."
Harry was a little confused, then got up again, left the dormitory in a daze, went back to his dormitory and fetched a ‘live spot map’ for Cowen.
Harry sent the map shortly afterwards.
After Harry left, Covin sat on the sofa with a deep face, spreading the "Live Spot Map" on his legs to open it.
After searching for it, he looked at the name on the map and began to think.
...
...
There will be a long interval between the third game and the second game, and it will take four months to officially play.
During these four months, Cowen became simple and simple, and isolated.
He seldom moves in the castle, and he is often not seen by people, and most of the time he stays in the ‘House of Request’.
Sometimes he would take time off to leave the college for a day, and even went to see Sirius Black.
Facing the inquiries from classmates and friends, he just perfunctory and did not give an accurate response.
This state continued until June 24, when the third game began.
As usual, after the breakfast time, the teachers and students of the whole college began to go together in the direction of the competition venue.
After nearly a year of living together in the castle, the students of ‘Darmstrand School of Witchcraft’ and ‘Boothbaton’s School of Witchcraft and Wizardry’ have become less arrogant and alienated.
Today, they have been able to get along with many Hogwarts students.
Talking and laughing to each other along the way.
On the contrary, it was Corvin. Because of the solitary life of nearly four months, he is now only accompanied by Penello and Splitter.
Chatting all the way, arrived at the competition venue.
The third game will be played in a very huge maze. The maze made up of the ‘High Plant Wall’ alone took many wizards nearly three months to arrange.
There are many magic traps in the maze, a large number of offensive magic plants and magical creatures.
The final event will be used to verify the personal strength of the Warriors.
In the open space in front of the four entrances of the maze, Dumbledore, as the organizer, has already begun to take his place, ready to speak.
The four warriors such as Kewen stood side by side, accepting cheering and encouragement from the surrounding audience.
He took out his pocket watch to check the time, and then Dumbledore used the'amplifier curse' to suppress the music of the band and the noise in the audience.
"Welcome!" Dumbledore said loudly with a smile, "Welcome everyone to come and witness the third game of the Triwizard Tournament!"
"Early this morning, Professor Moody sent the competition trophy into the maze. Among the four warriors, whoever hits the trophy first, then who will become the final champion of this'Triwizard Tournament'!"
"But what I want to say is that since Mr. Covin Quinn had the first overall score in the previous games, he will get the privilege of entering the maze first. The other warriors will be based on the total score of the previous two games. Divide into the labyrinth one after another."
Among the many applause ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Dumbledore paused, and when the applause and cheers gradually fell, he explained the safety aspects of the game.
Afterwards, Dumbledore summoned Cowen and others together and whispered some words such as'pay attention to safety'.
After speaking, Dumbledore looked at Cowen.
Nodding slightly, Kewen responded with a ‘rest assured’ look to the other party.
Seeing this, Dumbledore showed a look of relief and trust.
"Well, warriors." Dumbledore greeted: "Go to the entrance of your respective maze and wait for the signal to announce the start of the game."
The four of Kewen followed suit, spread out, and each chose a maze entrance to stand in position.
After standing still, Cowen turned to look at Harry.
At this moment, Professor Moody was leaning close to Harry, whispering something.
Kewen stared at the opponent's back and squinted slightly, and subconsciously touched his right hand on his pocket...
