"Shanna, what happened? Why did you suddenly call us back?"

Controlling their Flying Shoes, Phyllis and Lena swam swiftly through the water, leaving two trails in their wake, towards Shanna, who was located in the center of the Mermen Village.

In the previous call, Shanna only said that the plan had changed, the fishmen had run away, and that the two of them should come back quickly.

Looking at the empty Mermen Village, Phyllis and Lena were full of questions, wondering what Shanna had done in those short ten minutes.

"I don't know what happened either. As soon as those mermen saw Fina, they all scattered and ran away!"

Shanna was still completely baffled. She planned to give Fina, that unruly little brat, a good talking-to when she got back.

"Huh? Then, what should we do?"

From the moment she learned that Shanna was going to the bottom of the lake to save Little Gabrielle, Lena had a bad feeling.

And now, that premonition has come true! They will definitely be severely criticized by the professor, and might even be expelled?

The thought of her parents' expressions when they learned she had been expelled from Hogwarts brought tears to Lena's eyes.

"Oh dear! Why are you crying!"

Seeing Lena's pouting lips and teary eyes, Shanna immediately panicked. She couldn't bear to see her friend cry.

"Don't worry, I have a way."

To appease her best friend, Shanna had no choice but to decide to unleash her ultimate move ahead of schedule.

As for that Little Fina over there, still racking her brains and about to explode with thought?

She never expected anything from him!

Shanna reached into her pocket, took out her Personal Terminal, and dialed the magic number at the top of her contacts.

"Gege! Fina's in trouble!"

As soon as the call connected, Shanna dumped a huge pot on Fina's head.

"Ha?"

After a moment of surprise, Bell confirmed that he hadn't misheard and that his sister had indeed said "Fina" and not "Shanna," before asking:

"What did it do?"

"I don't know what it did, but as soon as those merfolk saw Fina, they all ran away. Now, only a few of us are left in the Mermen Village."

Shanna briefly described what had happened.

"So, Gege, what should we do?"

"..."

Bell fell silent.

How could he know!

However, even if he didn't know, he couldn't show it in front of his younger sister. Otherwise, where would he put his face as the Gege?

so...

"It's alright! You guys do your thing, leave it to your Gege!"

Bell, trying to appear confident despite his own limitations, did his best to conceal any abnormality in his voice.

"Okay, thank you, Gege! Don't worry, Gege, I'll definitely give Fina a good beating when we get back!"

As she spoke, Shanna glanced dangerously at Fina, who was rolling around on the ground not far away, having started playing by herself at some point. The little girl immediately froze, looking utterly dejected.

"Uh... well... that's about right..."

However, before Bell could plead for his beloved pet, Shanna hung up the call.

Bell was stunned as he watched his Personal Terminal return to the standby screen.

So what should he do?

"Bell, what's wrong? Did something happen to Shanna?"

Seeing Bell fall silent after hanging up the call, Hermione knew without a doubt that it must be her troublesome sister-in-law causing some trouble again.

"Yeah, there was a little mishap. But don't worry, it's nothing serious. You can continue watching the game here, I'll go take care of it."

With that, Bell stood up, preparing to leave the audience.

In any case, sitting here doing nothing won't solve the problem. So, let's dive into the Black Lake first.

"Are you really alright?"

Hermione looked at Bell with concern.

It's worth noting that while Shanna is quite adept at causing trouble, she's also incredibly skilled at resolving problems.

And now, they actually need to ask Bell for help to solve the problem. No matter how you look at it, this can't be a small matter.

"Don't worry, we'll talk about the details later. Lim ~!"

After calming Hermione down, Bell summoned his little butler.

"What are your orders, Young Master?"

Lim, appearing in Apparition, bowed to Bell and asked.

"Disguise yourself as me and stay here with Hermione."

With that, Bell took out his Wand and cast an Illusion Spell on Lim, making him look like him.

After establishing his alibi, Bell cast Disillusionment Charm on himself and then jumped off the back of the audience seats.

He hurried along the shore of the Black Lake, looking for a place far from Dumbledore to enter Black Lake.

Soon, Bell appeared in a patch of reeds. He revealed himself and waved his Wand, deflecting a sudden Curses.

"I'm sorry, Young Master! I didn't know it was you!"

Suddenly, an adult wizard emerged from the reeds nearby.

This is one of the Menethil Family members William placed in the Ministry of Magic; he was assigned to maintain security for the Triwizard Tournament. It was from here that Shanna infiltrated the Black Lake.

Gero watched Bell nervously. He had attacked without hesitation after spotting someone in his warning zone. He never expected the intruder to be his own Young Master.

"It's alright, you did a great job. I'm going into the Black Lake now, you stay on guard."

Bell waved his hand, indicating that the other party didn't need to worry about it.

"Has something happened to Miss?"

Gero asked nervously.

"There was a minor accident, it's nothing serious, don't worry about it."

After saying that, Bell didn't give the other party any more time to ask questions and strode towards the Black Lake.

Time was of the essence; he had to stop the fishmen before they ran to Dumbledore to complain.

Under Gero's worried gaze, Bell quickly disappeared into the Black Lake.

"Magic Power Detection!"

Ripples of magic emanated from Bell, spreading outwards in concentric circles. Bell acted like a radar, detecting the location of the fish-men in the Black Lake.

At the same time, in order to avoid being discovered by Dumbledore, he had to reduce the intensity of the Magic Power Detection to the minimum and then gradually increase it to ensure that the detection range would not affect the shore.

"Um?"

Dumbledore, sitting in the audience, suddenly frowned. He had just sensed a familiar magical fluctuation passing through him.

Although the fluctuation was very slight, it still did not escape his perception.

"What's wrong, Dumbledore?"

Bagman, sitting next to Dumbledore, clearly noticed the old professor's unusual behavior.

"No, it's nothing."

Dumbledore glanced discreetly at Bell in the audience.

I wonder what this kid is up to now?
