Chapter 143
Cedric was slightly stunned, "What's important?"
"You helped me twice, Cedric, I remember it." Su Xingchen looked sincere.
I didn't expect the little girl to say such a thing. After all, she was always so "cold" and only targeted him. She tried her best not to have anything to do with him. Cedric was no fool, so how could he not feel it?
However, at this moment, the little girl's deer eyes were shining, and there was a bright smile on her face.
Dazzling and dazzling, it's hard to look away.
Cedric looked at her calmly. "You going to thank me?"
"Yeah!" Su Xingchen nodded with unmistakable pride, "You'll know when the time comes."
Cedric couldn't help but laugh, "Okay."
Su Xingchen left in a happy mood. She was not just talking nonsense. The thing that made her hesitate before was exactly related to Cedric.
She wanted to save him, not just because Cedric always helped her, but because she truly felt that he was a friend worth making friends with and a comrade she could trust. She didn't want this outstanding young man to be sacrificed.
In her free time, she doesn't just bask in the sun and do nothing, but carefully analyzes her experiences of the past few years.
It is impossible to say that her presence has no impact on the plot at all.
With one more person added, there are endless variables.
In daily life, Su Xingchen didn't feel constrained by the plot. But at the end of each year, during the annual mini-finale, many coincidences did occur.
She scratched her chin.
He fainted in the first year, had a stroke in the second year, and was paralyzed in the third year.
This year she should be fine, because she can't enter the maze during the Triwizard Tournament and affect Harry or anyone else.
Su Xingchen realized that whether it was the plot or the world consciousness, as long as the main line remained unchanged, other minor differences would not be corrected.
Isn't this a bug she can exploit?
Saving Cedric would be easy; he would just have to be killed in the graveyard, and Harry would then have to bring his "corpse" back.
Su Xingchen lowered her eyes to look at the bracelet on her wrist. She raised her wrist with a smile and shook it gently. The sound of jade and metal colliding was crisp and pleasant.
When the world consciousness maintained the main line, it also gave her a hint.
Even if things didn't go as smoothly as she expected, at least she had done her best and didn't have to endure the pain of being forced to watch from the sidelines.
Su Xingchen's steps became lighter. She took a deep breath and truly relaxed her body and mind for the first time since the World Cup.
October 30th finally arrived amidst the great anticipation of Hogwarts students, and the air was filled with joy. Almost no one listened attentively in class today, as everyone was thinking about the arrival of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang in the evening.
When the bell rang for the last Potions class, almost all the students hurried back to the common rooms of their respective colleges to put down their textbooks, and then rushed to the entrance hall in two steps.
The deans are organizing their student teams.
"Weasley, put your hat on straight." Professor McGonagall said sternly to Ron, then glanced at him, "Miss Patil, take that ridiculous thing out of your hair."
Parvati frowned unhappily and removed a huge bow from the ends of her hair.
"Everyone follow me," said Professor McGonagall. "First years go first."
It was a fresh and cold evening. Night was slowly falling. A white, translucent crescent moon was hanging over the Forbidden Forest. The students of Hogwarts were standing in line in front of the castle.
Su Xingchen felt that this scene was somewhat familiar. So, were schools all over the world the same? He had thought that all he had to do was sit in the auditorium and wait.
"It's almost six." Ron checked his watch and looked towards the driveway leading to the front door. "How do you think they'll get here? By train?"
"I don't think so," said Hermione.
"Then how did it come? A flying broom?" Harry looked up at the sky which was gradually becoming starry and guessed.
"I don't think so, from so far away..."
"Portkeys?" Ron said again. "Or they could Apparate. Maybe they're even allowed to use them if you're under seventeen?"
"You can't Apparate at Hogwarts. How many times do I have to tell you?" Hermione replied impatiently.
Everyone excitedly swept the venue as it gradually darkened. It was in complete silence, no different from usual.
"Why hasn't he come yet?" Su Xingchen tiptoed, she felt a little cold.
Harry remembered what Mr. Weasley had said before the Quidditch World Cup: when people get together, they can't help but show off.
The foreign students were probably preparing for a dramatic entrance ceremony.
At this moment, Dumbledore, who was standing at the end with the teachers, suddenly shouted: "If I am not mistaken, the representatives of Beauxbatons have arrived."
"Where is it?" Many students looked around anxiously in different directions.
Harry noticed that Su Xingchen subconsciously raised his head and looked at the sky, so he looked over there too.
A huge object appeared over the Forbidden Forest, much larger than a flying broom. It was rapidly flying across the deep blue sky and flying towards Hogwarts, gradually getting bigger and bigger.
"It's a fire dragon!" A first-year student was extremely excited.
"Don't be silly, it's a house that's flying," another first-year retorted.
As the dark behemoth flew over the Forbidden Forest and was illuminated by the lights of the castle, all the students at Hogwarts saw clearly what it was.
A powder blue carriage, pulled by twelve winged horses, flew through the air.
The horses were silver-winged horses, each as big as an elephant.
The carriage flew lower and was landing at an incredibly fast speed. The students standing in the first three rows hurriedly stepped back.
There was a deafening roar, causing Neville to jump back and step on the foot of a fifth grader behind him.
Harry had just time to see the crest on the door before it opened.
A boy in light blue running clothes jumped out of the carriage, bent over and groped for something on the carriage floor, and a golden ladder was opened.
A shiny black high-heeled shoe protruded from the carriage.
Now it was clear why those silver-winged horses and carriages were so huge. The shoe was as big as a child's sled, and the woman who appeared next was of astonishing size.
Harry had only ever met one man who could compare to her, and that was Hagrid.
Somehow she looked much larger than Hagrid. She was wrapped from head to toe in a long black satin gown, and rich opals glittered around her neck and on her thick fingers.
Dumbledore began to applaud, and everyone else followed suit.
The large woman's face relaxed into an elegant smile, and she extended her gleaming hand toward Dumbledore.
"Dear Madam Maxime," said Dumbledore, "welcome to Hogwarts."
