What? You're asking why only the Little Witch's voice is heard?

That wasn't because Harry was incredibly popular with girls, but because...

(The Little Witch: "Heh heh, men!")

Well, that's basically it.

However, there are no rules against attacking each other in the Triwizard Tournament. Rather, it's more accurate to say that sabotaging each other and resorting to any means necessary is the norm in the Triwizard Tournament.

So far this year, none of the Champion have managed to completely demolish anyone's brains, which shows that the Ministry of Magic has indeed put in a lot of effort in this regard.

Seeing the haughty Phoebe on the screen and Harry with blood trickling from his mouth, it was Dumbledore's turn to be unhappy.

Can't we be reasonable for once?!

Fortunately, Phoebe did not launch another attack on Harry.

Watching Harry struggling to swim in the water, clutching his chest with one hand and dragging Ron with the other, Dumbledore beckoned to the side.

"Your Surveillance Mirror has been swallowed by a fish, what do we do?"

Dumbledore asked one of the Menethil Family's technicians.

Since the Surveillance Mirror are not currently for sale, William specifically dispatched several technicians to be responsible for Surveillance Mirror installation and subsequent retrieval.

"Please rest assured, Professor, our Surveillance Mirror are engraved with protective Curses, and we will activate them remotely immediately."

The technician bowed and said.

After saying this, and receiving a signal from Dumbledore, he quickly walked toward the instrument not far away.

What the technician didn't mention was that all the Surveillance Mirror were engraved with exorcism Curses.

Although the effect of the Banishing Charm was deliberately weakened in this competition in order to defeat the Surveillance Mirror, it shouldn't have been swallowed by an ordinary lake fish.

So, despite his confident demeanor before, he was actually completely bewildered and panicked at the moment.

If anything goes wrong, when we get back, the William will skin him alive!

Standing in front of the instrument, before the technician could even activate the protective Curses on Phoebe's Surveillance Mirror, a vibration came from his chest.

He pulled out his Personal Terminal, and a name that was both unfamiliar and familiar appeared in the Personal Terminal of the screen.

As a member of the Menethil Family, every wizard must have two magic numbers stored in their Personal Terminal.

One of them is the head of the family, William Menethil, and the other is the next heir to the Menethil Family headship, Bell Menethil.

Even if these two numbers may never be used, once these two names appear on the screen, they must provide services to them unconditionally.

Taking a deep breath to suppress his nervousness and excitement, the technician connected to Bell's communication system.

"Hello, Young Master, how may I help you?"

Okay... okay... I understand, I promise to complete the mission!

After hanging up the communication, the technician started the instrument in front of him and then began to operate it in a professional manner.

This is why outsiders simply don't understand how to operate these instruments; otherwise, they would be able to figure it out at a glance...

"Are you playing Snake here?"

And it's the lowest difficulty level.

After hanging up the call, Bell looked at the completely black screen in front of him and nodded in satisfaction.

As expected of my younger sister, she's always so reliable in her work.

What? You're asking about what happened before, didn't it?

So isn't that all Little Fina's fault, and it has little to do with Shanna... right?

"Bell, what have you done now?"

Hermione reached out and pinched the soft flesh of Bell's waist, then lowered her voice and questioned him.

While questioning her, she also looked around furtively, as if afraid others wouldn't know she had done something wrong.

There was no way around it; after all, it was a major event like the Triwizard Tournament, which also involved two other magic schools in Europe. If they weren't careful, Bell's infamy might spread beyond Britain and into Europe!

These brother and sister are such a handful!

She had been on tenterhooks for a long time, and now that Bell had finally returned safely, before she could even breathe a sigh of relief, another call was made, and he said a bunch of things she couldn't understand.

"Are you guys ever going to stop?!"

At this moment, Hermione really wanted to give up and go directly to Professor McGonagall to complain and have the professor give Bell a good beating!

... However, in the end, I still couldn't bear to part with it.

"It's nothing. I just asked people not to activate the active defense function on the Surveillance Mirror to prevent the image from suddenly returning."

Seeing Hermione's guilty look, Bell shook his head helplessly.

So Hermione still needs more practice!

That won't do!

Hermione is already so nervous about this small scene that she looks like she's about to have a heart attack. If he really brings the big scenes he plans to the future to life, Hermione will be scared to death.

It seems we'll need to stir things up a bit more in the future to toughen Hermione up.

It has to be said that Bell has gone to great lengths to be a good Gege!

Before Shanna even started causing trouble, he had already come up with a reason for his younger sister.

I wonder if Hermione would regret her momentary soft-heartedness if she knew what Bell was thinking right now.

Following Bell's instructions, the Menethil Family's technicians fully implemented the guiding principle of procrastination; as long as the screen didn't light up on its own, they would never let it light up!

Therefore, although Dumbledore's occasional glances put him under immense pressure, he ultimately managed to stall until Shanna finished her preparations.

Seeing Phoebe reappear on the screen, and Gabrielle in Phoebe's arms, Madame Maxime nodded in satisfaction.

Although Phoebe is now at the bottom, successfully rescuing the hostages and completing the mission is always better than complete failure.

Moreover, judging from the first and second matches, this year's Triwizard Tournament is based on a points system, so as long as the score gap is not too large, Phoebe still has a chance to catch up!

The reality was better than Madame Maxime had anticipated.

Although Phoebe fell behind, Harry's injuries were too severe, and he was quickly overtaken by the Phoebe sisters who had come from behind.

Seeing Harry struggling to swim, Phoebe couldn't bear it. Finally, persuaded by her sister, she went along with it and swam the last part of the journey with Harry.

Although it took a little longer, Phoebe still came in third, giving Harry the last place.

Poor Harry, he was the first Champion to arrive at the Mermen Village, but ended up in last place.

Does this mean that good people really don't get rewarded in this world?

Of course not.

It's just that you need qualifications to be a good person.

If it were Bell instead...

Just kidding, if he doesn't leave, who dares to move an inch?

They all have to wait there for him!
