An hour passed quickly, except for Veneto who ended the game in five minutes, everyone else had timed out in the game. The shortest timeout was Krum, which only exceeded five minutes.

Harry and Fleur both returned together for more than ten minutes. Although Harry arrived at the Mermaid Village earlier than the other two, he did not leave until he confirmed that the others all met with his hostages.

Unlike the original novel, Furong was indeed attacked in the water and grass. But this time she successfully got rid of the attacks of Grindello, which was just a waste of time.

Obviously, like Harry, she took the mermaid singing seriously. So after she got ashore, she hugged her sister and cried desperately, as if some of her own treasure had been lost.

"Do you think I'm stupid?" After drinking the potion handed over by Mrs. Pomfrey and putting on a blanket on her body, Harry said to Hugo, who had been waiting here for a long time.

"This is obviously just a game. I think both Venetto and Krum should know this. Only I foolishly took this threat seriously and finally came back."

"No, I think it's very admirable for you to make that choice before." Hugo shook his head. "At least this shows that you have sufficient sense of responsibility."

"But from another perspective, your habitual passion is not a good idea." Hermione interrupted at this time.

"If I want to deal with you, just start with someone related to you, or even make you believe that I will easily put you in a trap.

"Because when you encounter this kind of problem, you will often get excited at the first time, and then ignore all the suspicious points and rush into the trap yourself."

"Okay, it seems that I do have some problems with this." Harry shook his head helplessly. In his eyes, he always felt that Hermione was like his sister, so he naturally felt less good after being criticized by people close to him.

Fortunately, the goddess of luck did not abandon him completely. After seeing him a little depressed, Ginny, with wet hair, reached out to grab Harry's head and moved it to him, and then kissed her directly.

At this time, Ron just squeezed into the crowd and wanted to say something to Harry. After seeing his sister kissing Harry, he was stunned as if he was hit by lightning.

However, the other audience members who saw this scene in the stands clapped and even whistled. Even the referees who were preparing to score were attracted by the sudden cheers.

"This can be said to be a fool's blessing." Venetto said to the couple who were kissing. "Obviously, girls like Ginny who are mainly Harry are the best partner for him."

"You're right." Hermione nodded and said, "After all, Harry is sometimes stronger, and he needs a partner who is slightly weaker in front of him, otherwise he will definitely quarrel every day."

At this moment, a trace appeared on the water surface, and then a mermaid surfaced. Dumbledore walked to the water and communicated with her with the sharp and harsh sound made by the mermaid on the water surface.

A few minutes later, the two sides ended the exchange, and Dumbledore returned to the referee table and started chatting quietly with all the referees, as if they were to make some adjustments to the score.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we finally made the decision. Mermaid leader Mercus told us what happened under the lake in its entirety. We decided to give the warriors the following score based on the full score of fifty..."

"Although Fleur Dragul showed excellent use of the bubbly curse, he was attacked by Green Lodi when approaching the target, which led to the last one to reach his destination. So we decided to give him 30 points."

There were waves of applause from the stands, and Furong nodded with satisfaction. Although the score is at the bottom now, considering her performance just now, Furong felt that getting such a score could be said to be Merlin's blessing.

"Wickor Krum used the transfiguration technique, which was incomplete, but still very effective. He was the second one to return with the hostage, but it was beyond the scheduled time of the game, so we decided to give him 40 points."

The applause to Krum is much warmer than to Furong, which is mainly because Krum performed better. Of course, he is an internationally renowned Quidditch star and has also won him a lot of praise.

However, Krum didn't look very good now. After all, he ran to the competition with confidence. However, not only did he not win first place in two consecutive competitions, but he obviously felt a little uncomfortable if he couldn't even get second place.

At least in the speculations of the results of the game by various media before the start of the game, most people felt that Krum should be able to gain an overwhelming advantage, but now it seems that this mainly brings psychological pressure to Krum.

"Harry Potter made the right choice and took gillus, which achieved amazing results, and like Miss Furong, he returned the same last time.

But the female leader of the mermaid told us that Mr. Porter was the first to find the hostages and that he failed to return in time because he wanted to make sure that all hostages could return safely, rather than just caring about his own hostages."

"Most referees..." Bagman said, and glanced at Kakarov with great dissatisfaction: "I think this fully reflects the noble moral character, so... Mr. Porter's score is 42!"

Warm cheers sounded again in the stands, and amid the applause and cheers, Bagman's voice sounded again.

"In the end, Miss Vittorio Veneto showed us her super level of transformation and flexible magic use, and rescued the hostages in just five minutes, so we decided that Miss Veneto's score was - 48 points!"

"I guess it's probably Kakarov gave you a low score." Hugo said to Venetto while applauding. "Only this guy will score blindly with his eyes closed."

Rounds of cheers rang in the stands. After all, Hogwarts was home court in this game, so everyone was naturally excited after seeing their classmates won the first place in their school.

"The third and last project will be held in the evening of June 24," Bagman continued. "The Warriors will learn about the specific content of the project a month in advance. Thank you for your support."

"It seems we will be able to rest for a long time next time." Looking at the quiet Black Lake and the cheering crowd in the stands, Venetto whispered. "After all, we have a lot of busy work next time, so it's good to have free time."

"Indeed, especially during this period we happened to have a big project to be busy with." Hugo nodded. "It's a good thing to be able to take enough time to do your own thing."

Just as everyone returned to the castle together, Hugo saw the Weasley twins' faces with satisfied smiles. Obviously, they sold things well this time while everyone was bored.
