Chapter 559 The Tranquility Before the Final
William really couldn't believe it, because judging by the location on the map... Astoria was in Crouch's tent.
Ah this...
Crouch...you sure have a big problem.
Let's not talk about imprisoning adult wizards, are you starting to attack little loli now?
You are a beast.
But judging from the map, there was no one else in the tent, not even Winky the house-elf.
Since the last fire, although Crouch has changed to a new tent, he is no longer in the camp.
William smelled a peculiar smell of conspiracy.
Ten minutes later, the Aurors surrounded the tent.
On the sofa in the room, William found Astoria who was not injured but had been in a coma for a long time.
Pointing his wand at the girl, he said softly, "Resuscitate quickly."
The little girl woke up quickly, and when she saw William, tears rolled down her cheeks like beads, then she stretched out her hand, trying to grab his collar and refused to let go.
Her face flushed unhealthily, and she coughed a few times.
Daphne quickly hugged Astoria from behind, and comforted: "It's okay, we found you."
William suddenly stretched out his hand, pressed Astoria's heart with his left hand, and pinched her chin with his right hand, making her open her mouth and squint into her mouth.
After a while, he frowned and said:
"Daphne, I've always wanted to ask... is your sister sick?"
Although this may sound like a curse, it is definitely not a curse.
Daphne hesitated for a moment, nodded and said tremblingly: "She has a blood curse."
"No wonder." William looked at Astoria's eyes, and immediately felt pity.
The Blood Curse is a curse carried by blood, which can only appear in pure blood families.
This curse is a recessive inheritance. In the generation of the Greengrass family, only Astoria suffers from this disease.
This disease also made her physically weak, and she suffered from minor illnesses from time to time.
This disease will haunt her for the rest of her life, especially her infertility, otherwise it will cause great harm to her body and cause her to die young.
"William, can you treat my sister?" Daphne asked in a low voice. "If you can cure it, let me do anything."
"This curse is not my field of research." William shook his head, apologetically saying, "I can't do anything about it."
A trace of disappointment flashed in Daphne's eyes.
"But I have a friend who might be able to help." William said uncertainly. "Take her away first."
In fact, Astoria's problem is not too bad.
She's just weak and gets sick easily.As long as you don't have children and take care of yourself with peace of mind, you can still live for decades without premature death.
But if you have to have kids...
The solution is simpler...it doesn't even need to involve magic layers.
It's a big deal to be (sub)pregnant.
After walking out of the tent, Scrimgeour, the director of the Auror office, waved at William.
Mrs. Greengrass, who received the news, rushed over and took Astoria over.
Mr. Greenglass also came, wanting to thank you.
William waved his hand politely, and walked towards Hermione and Fleur in a nonchalant manner.
There are no Death Eaters in the Greengrass family, but they can develop into their own people.
But it's also difficult. This kind of rich old pure-blood family has always had class weakness.Can't take on the heavy responsibility of resisting Voldemort.
"How's Greenglass?" Hermione asked in a low voice.
"There was no injury, but she didn't know who caught her, and she was cast with the Forgetting Curse."
"That's weird."
This thing is really weird.
Crouch himself was not at the camp, so he probably did not do it.
But Astoria was in the Crouch tent...someone set it up on purpose.
Now that he had a grudge against Crouch, the only thing William could think of was the imprisoned wizard.
Crouch was also chasing him.
Because Winky had gone home in name, but in fact had been wandering around the camp.
That's what Dobby said.
It is quite difficult for a house elf to hide from a group of elves and conduct investigations in the camp.
But here's the weird thing.
The method of blaming the escaped man was too crude, and it was impossible to have too much influence on Crouch.
This shows that the man who first captured Astoria did not intend to frame Crouch.
But for some unknown reason, Astoria was released again.
It's also impossible to let it go directly, just blame Crouch at will.
So why did he grab Astoria?
The little girl's friends are very narrow.The other party probably didn't know her, and it was likely that she just saw the little wizard who was alone and caught her casually.
Well, there must be more than one wizard missing from the camp.
Just like cockroaches, when you see one, there are thousands of them in the house.
William wrote Fudge a letter to remind him.
But Fudge didn't care, because no one had reported the crime so far, and he didn't bother to care about such things.
As long as no one reports the crime, then the world will be peaceful.
Besides, in the camp of 10 people, many of them are foreign tourists.Some wizard suddenly disappeared, who knows.
William was also speechless. Since Minister Fudge didn't care, why did he bother to investigate?
In this atmosphere, the semi-finals came to an end.
The results did not surprise everyone:
Ireland crushed Peru and Bulgaria beat Madagascar with difficulty.
Their mascot, the penguin, attacked Miss Veela during the game and was expelled from the venue.
There were more and more people in the camp, there were wizards everywhere, and the number far exceeded one hundred thousand.
The wizards who bought tickets to the finals will not talk about it, and those who didn't buy them are even less willing to leave.
They also want to take the opportunity to sneak into the arena.
The Aurors had found many such wizards.
After the semifinals, many wizards did not leave the stadium, but hid inside.
As long as they hide for half a month, they will come out again in the finals.
Before the final, the Hogwarts OwLs results finally came out.
Unfortunately, the owls sent the grades home, not camp.
So the twins were unlucky, and each of them only got three certificates, which was pitifully small.
It is said that Mrs. Weasley was cooking at home that morning.
She was in an extremely bad mood at the time, because Ron was sitting at the dining table, yelling that he was hungry.
Angrily, she opened the letter and almost passed out from anger.
It was Ron who was beaten first. The twins were not at home, and Mrs. Weasley could only vent her anger on Ron who kept pushing the limits of her temper.
After that, twelve Howler letters a day were sent to the camp by Mrs. Weasley in a line.
The twins were a little scared, the school was so insidious that they sent their grades home.
They wanted to fake their grades before, but fortunately they were persuaded by William.
Otherwise, this wave will die miserably.
Cedric is still as good as ever, he did not choose divination and number divination, and got ten O's.
William also received a letter from the school, which contained the bibliography for the new school year.
After opening the envelope, there was also a sky blue badge with a conspicuous P on it.
However, no one cares, everyone is very calm.It was only natural for William to become a prefect.
It wouldn't be surprising if he wasn't a prefect.
Shu also received the female prefect badge.
Cedric was delighted that now that Cho was a prefect, he could share the prefect's bathroom with him.
He is thinking of peaches!
In addition to the prefect badge, William also got a piece of news: he has been selected as the captain of the Quidditch team.
This incident is even more common, because although William was not the captain before, he has always exercised the power of the captain.
After all, this is his team, not to assist anyone.
What's more, there is no competition this year, only the Triwizard Tournament.
On the eve of the Quidditch World Cup final, the camp was also unusually quiet.
Neither Little Tom, nor the hidden guy... didn't move at all.
But this is just the calm before the storm, William knows... They will definitely make a big news in the final.
