HP: I’m working on redemption at Hogwarts

Chapter 121 Cedric’s “Treasure”



In the dim light of the morning, Cedric was wearing loose swimming trunks by the black lake, with his naked upper body looking a little thin in the slightly cold air. It's as if you can see the coolness emanating from his skin, which makes people feel pity for no reason...

Well, more of them should be fans of Aimu and Shasha...

"Digory, give me a towel!"

"Digory, drink some water!"

Qiu Chang was almost suffocated by Cedric's fangirl, but fortunately Cedric found him in time and pulled him out of the crowd.

"Are you okay?" Cedric looked at Qiu Zhang with some concern and asked.

"It's okay..." Qiu Zhang shook his still dizzy head and waved his hands casually.

Sure enough, after the incident where he was surrounded by fans and girls during the Krum Black Lake training, he should have guessed how much trouble Cedric's unbeatable handsome face and muscular figure would cause... …

but……

Before Qiu Zhang sighed and struggled with how to persuade the crowded fans to leave, he saw that everyone was preparing thoroughly in an orderly manner, and some of them looked at Qiu Zhang and Cedric with teasing and envious eyes.

"Qiu Zhang is here, let's go quickly!"

"Oh my god! Senior Qiu and Senior Diggory are so close to each other!"

Several little girls shyly waved hello to Qiu Zhang and left slowly. Soon, the group of girls gathered by the black lake dispersed and went to do their own things.

"They are quite cute..."

"Maybe? I just know I'm going to be embarrassed!"

Cedric was inexplicably shy, his cheeks flushed with a faint pink color. When he saw the crowd gradually moving away, he lowered his hands on his chest.

"Pfft! Ced, you are too cute!"

Qiu Zhang couldn't help but raise his hand to poke Cedric's red cheek and smiled sweetly at him.

"Autumn!"

Cedric coughed awkwardly, reached out to grab Qiu Zhang's little hand that was making trouble on his face, and snorted dissatisfiedly.

"Okay, okay, don't you want to test the feasibility of the head soaking spell? Come on!"

Qiu Zhang finally stopped joking with Cedric, and then the two of them got down to business.

Since Cedric had only been practicing in the bathtub before, there were many obstacles and interferences that were too unworthy to be mentioned. The two still planned to enter the Black Lake to practice.

Cedric stretched out his wand and cast a head soaking spell on himself, then looked at Cho Chang and jumped into the water.

Out of consideration for his own safety, Cedric naturally would not dive too deep. However, the surface of the Black Lake was already so dark that the bottom of the lake was so dark that Cedric could hardly see anyone as soon as he entered the water.

Qiu Zhang couldn't help but feel a little nervous, but he could only wait on the lawn. She paid attention to the time and paced anxiously back and forth on the lawn by the lake. Until the bell of Hogwarts Castle rang exactly three times, which meant that the time for the Bubble Curse was almost over, there was still no sign of Cedric on the water. Qiu Zhang immediately took a half-step forward anxiously and squatted by the lake with his hand to play. He bounced the water surface and called nervously.

"Ced! Ced!"

"I'm here!"

Cedric emerged from the water. His originally brown and slightly curly hair was wet and clinging to his face. He casually pulled it to the back of his head, revealing his handsome and moist facial features in front of Qiu Zhang. With a soft and patient tone, he slowly swam to the lake and landed.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. It seems I'm adapting to this spell well!"

……

……

In the days that followed, Cho Chang often accompanied Cedric to train his underwater adaptability and swimming skills. From time to time, he would cast some troublesome spells and obstacles on Cedric in the water to test his stimulation of the head soaking spell. After many days of diligent practice, Cedric was very well prepared.

Soon it was the day before the second event competition, but Cedric seemed inexplicably awkward and nervous. After the two had dinner in the auditorium, Qiu Zhang was going to take Cedric for a walk by the lake to relieve his slight nervousness. Nervous stress.

Almost as soon as the two of them walked out of the castle gate together, a familiar call came from behind.

"Autumn!"

There was no need to turn around at all. From the cheerful and exciting tone, Qiu Zhang could picture Fred's laughing face out of thin air in his mind.

"Qiu, wait for me!" Fred ran a few steps faster, catching up with Cedric and Qiu Zhang, patting her on the shoulder and turning her around.

"What's wrong?" Qiu Zhang looked at him panting, as if something was urgent, and slowly raised his hand and patted his back to calm his rapid breathing.

"Professor Dumbledore asked you to go to his office!" Fred patted Cho Chang on the shoulder, put on a meaningful and pretentious expression, and raised his eyebrows playfully at Cho Chang.

"Professor Dumbledore? He is now-"

Before Qiu Zhang finished sighing with doubts in his heart, Fred walked up behind Qiu Zhang and couldn't wait to push her back and drive her back to the castle.

"Hey wait..."

Qiu Zhang couldn't help but look back at Cedric, with a trace of hesitation in his eyes. He only had time to see Cedric's still gentle and tolerant smile, and slowly raised his hand to wave goodbye to Qiu Zhang.

"You go ahead and see you later!"

"Well, bye!" Qiu Zhang and Cedric waved before leaving with Fred with confidence.

I was relatively familiar with the route to the principal's office. I walked through the castle with Fred, and we were almost there soon. However, no matter how Qiu Zhang asked Fred, he never reminded her what Dumbledore was looking for. .

"Fred, what's the matter with you? We are best friends, don't you want to give me a little reminder?"

Qiu Zhang poked Fred's shoulder with dissatisfaction and became more and more nervous as he looked at the location of the principal's office that he was about to arrive at.

Could it be that Professor Dumbledore found out that Cedric got the golden egg because someone reminded him that he was suspected of cheating?

But the other warriors are not very fair and just? …

Well, even if I rack my brain and rack my brain, I really can’t think of anything important that Professor Dumbledore has to do with me at this critical time...

"Qiu, I really don't know, and I will never lie to you!" Perhaps seeing that Qiu Zhang didn't believe him and had an awkward expression on his face, Fred stretched out three fingers to make an oath and seriously assured Qiu Zhang.

"But don't worry. It's certainly not a bad thing for Professor Dumbledore to find you. After all, you're not like me and George making trouble?"

Fred patted Qiu Zhang's shoulder vigorously and nodded heavily, pretending to be serious, with his whole face straining.

"Fuck you!" Qiu Zhang saw the teasing in his expression, pushed him away casually, and then slowly walked forward.

The giant sculpture in the shape of a griffon rotates once, revealing the automatic spiral staircase inside. Qiu Zhang turned his head and stuck out his tongue dissatisfiedly at Fred, then turned around and went upstairs.

As soon as he entered the principal's office, Qiu Zhang saw several familiar figures. Hermione and Ron were standing next to the principal's desk, and Ron would grab the lemon snowballs from the sugar bowl and throw them into his mouth from time to time.

Sitting in the corner was a slightly embarrassed little girl. From her flowing silver-white hair, it was obvious that she was probably Fleur's sister.

"Ahem, everyone can gather together. Don't be too nervous. Just treat it as chatting with this little old man like me."

Professor Dumbledore may have sensed the nervousness of several people. He smiled kindly and waved to Sister Fleur in the corner and Qiu Zhang at the door to come closer.

"Professor Dumbledore, is there something important about the warriors?"

Hermione looked around the office, and she was extremely smart and keenly noticed something from the identities of the four people who came to the office so far.

Cho Chang - Cedric's girlfriend.

Gabrielle - Fleur's sister.

Himself and Ron, it's obvious, isn't it? It must have something to do with Harry. Why didn't anyone related to Krum show up?

Hermione had questions in her mind and couldn't help but ask Professor Dumbledore.

"You are very smart, it can be said to be very smart, Hermione." Professor Dumbledore smiled meaningfully, stretched out his hand to brush his long white beard, and then said, "I called you all here today to meet the warriors. They are related.”

“I wonder if it’s related to the second project?”

The lyrics he heard in the golden egg subconsciously appeared in Qiu Zhang's mind, and he looked at Professor Dumbledore with a polite smile on his face and asked.

"That's right! That's right!" A glint flashed in Professor Dumbledore's eyes, and his bright eyes did not look like an old man over a hundred years old, but rather like a child of their own age.

"I wonder if you would like to become a treasure to the warriors?"

"A warrior's 'treasure'?"

Ron didn't seem to understand the meaning of this word, and his voice was a little excited and sharp, subconsciously exclaiming.

"So...I am Harry's treasure? yue~"

Ron felt ashamed of this greasy and inexplicably dreamy word. He felt inexplicably embarrassed and embarrassed when he thought that he and Harry were like the princess and prince in a fairy tale.

Help! I can already imagine myself being laughed to death by everyone! ! !

Seeing Ron's disgusted face and goosebumps all over his body as he imagined something disgusting, Hermione wordlessly slapped him away.

"Who said you are Harry's... treasure... treasure? Maybe it's me?"

Well, even Hermione had a hard time saying the word.

Qiu Zhang couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw this scene of bickering. But when I think of myself telling Cedric that I am his treasure, I feel a little shy and embarrassed, as if I am confessing my love.

Qiu Zhang's cheeks were slightly red, and he coughed shyly.

"Okay, you two don't need to bicker. Now let me announce your respective warriors!"

Professor Dumbledore snapped his fingers to stop Hermione and Ron from bickering, then smiled softly at the four of them and announced.

"Harry Potter corresponds to Ron Weasley, Fleur Delacour corresponds to Gabrielle Delacour."

The announcement of the first two was undoubtedly beyond doubt, but as the candidates for Harry's treasure were confirmed, it became obvious that there was only one person for Krum's treasure.

Hermione was inexplicably shy, her freckled face glowed a light pink, and her eyes were evasive.

"Krum Viktor to Hermione Granger."

Professor Dumbledore read this, smiled teasingly at Hermione, and winked playfully, making Hermione even more shy.

"And our Cedric Diggory counterpart is Cho Chang."

Qiu opened her mouth with a faint smile, still feeling satisfied and secretly happy about the result she already knew, maybe because the "treasure" symbolized the most important person in the warrior... She was Cedric's most important person in Hogwarts. Important person!

"Okay, come here and let me tell you a story. It'll be over soon!"

Professor Dumbledore waved to everyone to come closer. Qiu Zhang and the other three people immediately approached obediently, although they didn't quite understand what Professor Dumbledore meant by telling stories.

Soon, listening to Professor Dumbledore's murmuring, an ordinary wizard's bedtime story slowly began to be told.

Accompanied by Professor Dumbledore's long and vicissitudes of voice, Qiu Zhang felt a little sleepy inexplicably. He nodded his head from time to time, and soon his vision gradually became blurred, and finally fell into darkness completely.
