After the potion class, Gabriel and Elwyn went to the library to study by themselves at night.
They met Hermione there, and to Elwyn's surprise, Gabriel and Hermione got along very well.
The two of them often discussed the contents of their homework together, and exchanged information about the Hogwarts and Boothbottom.
Sometimes, they would just toss Elwyn aside and whisper something to each other.
Elwyn couldn't get a word in on this kind of girly talk.
Most of the time, Elwyn felt that they were talking about him, because the two of them were always looking at him with smiles on their faces.
But it was undeniable that their relationship progressed very quickly, even faster than the relationship between Elwyn and Gabriel.
In the end, Hermione took the initiative to bring Gabriel to Gryffindor's common restroom and introduce her to everyone.
Gabriel had a very good personality, and was welcomed by almost everyone. She blended into the atmosphere of Gryffindor Academy.
The guys all wanted to find out about her sister, Hibiscus Chinensis, her hobbies, and so on.
Elwyn suspected that if these guys knew about Hibiscus Chinensis's personality, would they still like her as much as they did now?
When sending Gabriel back to the carriage at night, Elwyn and Hermione had run into Hibiscus Chinensis a few times.
The contents of those conversations were very infuriating, such as listening to Hibiscus Chinensis complain that the Hogwarts were too cold and the food was too greasy, and so on.
All in all, she wasn't used to the life in the Hogwarts, and she didn't like it there.
This made Hermione's impression of her get worse and worse, and she even stopped going near Boothbottom's carriage.
Like Hibiscus Chinensis, Ron was also not used to the life in the Hogwarts.
After becoming a warrior, his life had undergone tremendous changes.
From an unknown person, he suddenly became the focus of everyone's attention. All of his actions were being watched.
Not everyone could adapt to this change, especially not Gryffindor. Ron was not welcomed by the others.
Everyone was now filled with malice towards him. Small matters and mistakes that originally weren't worth mentioning could be magnified into a topic of discussion in the academy at any time. They would use them as reasons to mock Ron, or from time to time compare the ordinary Ron to the outstanding Cedric. This was a truly unpleasant feeling.
Becoming a warrior was an opportunity for Ron, but it was also a challenge.
Judging from the current situation, Ron's performance was terrible. Some people in Gryffindor were beginning to doubt him.
However, Ron himself didn't care. He felt good about himself.
His current situation was also much better than when Harry became a warrior in the original plot. At least Elwyn, Harry, Hermione, and the rest of the Weasley family were supporting him. He also didn't get distracted by dreams of Lord Voldemort, Scar, and Sirius.
Despite this, on Friday morning, Ron and Harry still fought with Malfoy.
The reason was that Malfoy got inspiration from Hermione's S.P.E.W. badge. He changed it into a badge that supported the warrior Cedric and mocked Ron. All the students of Slytherin wore it on their chests.
The fight was very intense. Because of the disadvantage in numbers, Harry and Ron were seriously injured.
In the end, because of Snape's intervention, Gryffindor was deducted a hundred points, and the two were punished to stay in school for a week.
Ron looked like he was furious. He was looking for a chance to take revenge and teach Malfoy a lesson.
However, from Elwyn's point of view, it was better to learn a few more spells than to engage in this kind of meaningless entanglement with Malfoy.
"You two should calm down. Malfoy did that on purpose to make you angry!" Hermione said.
At this time, they were eating lunch.
Hermione was a little late in the morning because she was discussing the Hogwarts Magic Newspaper with Elwyn, so she didn't make it to the fight.
"On purpose to make us angry?!" Harry said indignantly. "That's great. He achieved his goal!"
"I really want to learn that spell from Professor Moody and turn Malfoy into a stoat!" Ron said.
He took out his wand and waved it hard like Moody, creating sparks.
"Put away your wand. Don't forget that you have to test your wand this afternoon." Hermione looked at Ron with dissatisfaction.
Ron mumbled something and put away his wand.
Because wands were the most important equipment for the warriors in the competition, they needed to check if they were functional and in good condition.
Professor Meg just came to inform them that according to the arrangement of the Ministry of Magic and the school, Mr. Ollivander would test the wands of the warriors this afternoon.
At that time, the warriors would also be interviewed by the media.
In fact, Elwyn already knew about this two days ago when he received a letter from Professor Lupin.
In addition to the Daily Prophet, the Ministry of Magic also invited the Hogwarts Magic Newspaper for this special interview.
Currently, many people were criticizing the Ministry of Magic for their inaction because of the attack on the World Cup and the failure to catch the vampires. The Ministry hoped to focus on the promotion of the upcoming competition and divert the public's attention.
Under the management of Professor Lupin, the Hogwarts Ministry of Magic founded by Elwyn was now the newspaper in the British magic circle whose circulation was second only to the Daily Prophet. Its influence couldn't be ignored.
Naturally, the task of this interview fell on Elwyn, Harry, Hermione, and Corin.
Professor Lupin had originally wanted to send some people over to help, but Elwyn rejected it. He felt that the few of them could do it well.
This morning, Elwyn and Hermione discussed this matter. The two of them would be the ones to complete the report.
They already had a general idea, and Harry and Corin would be in charge of the filming.
After lunch, Elwyn and Corin, who didn't have any classes in the afternoon, returned to the lounge for a while. Then, they took their cameras and went to the room on the second floor to wait.
Harry, Ron, Hermione, and the rest still had Defense Against Black Magic class, so they would be here in a while.
When the two of them entered, there were already people inside.
This was a relatively small classroom. Most of the desks had been pushed to the back of the classroom, leaving a large empty space in the middle.
Three desks were placed in front of the blackboard, covered with a long piece of velvet.
Behind the velvet-covered desks were a few chairs. Elwyn saw that Hibiscus Chinensis and Gabri were already sitting there.
The two of them were whispering in French, and their long silver hair shone dazzlingly under the sunlight.
Cedric and Krum hadn't arrived yet. In front of the desk, Ludo Bagman was talking to a witch. The witch was wearing a magenta robe.
"Ah, Elwyn, you're here!" Bagman quickly walked over when he saw Elwyn. "I'm very happy that your newspaper and the Daily Prophet accepted the Ministry of Magic's invitation to interview the hegemony competition. This is Rita Skeeter. Do you know her?"
Elwyn shook his head. So this woman was Rita Skeeter!
Her hair was done up in elaborate, stiff, and grotesque curls, which looked strangely out of place with her large-jawed face.
She wore a pair of jeweled glasses, and her thick and fat fingers held onto an alligator skin handbag.
