Harry did not lie. He did not put his name in the goblet, nor did he ask senior students to do it for him.

Even for becoming a champion, he only had aspirations, but no intention to act.

Everyone still trusted Snape's truth serum. So, the suspicion on Harry was completely cleared.

He was a victim.

That night, Harry followed Professor McGonagall back to the Gryffindor common room.

Sure enough, the Gryffindors were still talking about the Goblet of Fire tonight in the common room.

So, Professor McGonagall conveyed Harry's situation and the news that the champions would be re-selected.

The deans of other colleges did the same thing, explaining what happened tonight in their own colleges.

So, all the students knew that someone wanted to disrupt the semi-finals and wanted to take this opportunity to kill Harry Potter, so they tampered with the Goblet of Fire in advance.

And now, Black will work with his teacher, the legendary alchemist Nicolas Flamel, to repair the tampered Goblet of Fire.

The Ministry of Magic will also send Aurors to Hogwarts to assist several headmasters and find out who is behind this.

The students are excited again, especially those who failed to be selected as champions.

The Goblet of Fire was tampered with before! In other words, the previous results are no longer valid! They still have a chance!

As for the speculation about the mastermind behind the scenes, there are all kinds of speculations...

Some people say that it was done by a crazy ghost, because many players died in the Triwizard Tournament in history, and this ghost must be one of these players!

Therefore, he hated the Triwizard Tournament so much that he wanted to destroy the Quadruple Tournament...

Some people said that it was a conspiracy by Minister of Magic Fudge because he had always been ambitious and had trained a loyal army of house elves in the Ministry of Magic...

It is worth mentioning that the person who said this was from Ravenclaw.

However, although what these people said was very messy, there was one thing they did say correctly, that the Goblet of Fire must have been passively manipulated by the Ministry of Magic.

The Ministry of Magic took this matter very seriously and soon began to conduct a self-examination.

However, in the centuries since the Triwizard Tournament was suspended, the Goblet of Fire had been idle in the warehouse of the Ministry of Magic.

The defense was not tight at all...

It was really too easy for an experienced dark wizard to sneak into the Ministry of Magic and tamper with such a sparsely guarded item without leaving any trace.

So, this was an investigation that was destined to be fruitless.

……

Late at night.

The headmaster's office at Hogwarts.

Dumbledore, Grindelwald and Black were sitting together, looking at each other.

"Black, what do you think about this?" Dumbledore was the first to break the silence.

Black put down the cup of honey lemonade and said"On the one hand, protect Harry, because we don't know if the other party's target is him in the end. On the other hand... repair the Goblet of Fire first and see if the result of the re-selection will be different..."

"Also, although the Goblet of Fire was passively manipulated outside the school, there must be someone lurking in Hogwarts... waiting to execute a certain plan. So... Professor, our monitoring room needs to be activated."

Dumbledore sighed, "I didn't expect that the monitoring room set up to help Severus would be used again so soon."

"Wait, what monitoring room?" Grindelwald asked in confusion.

"It was when we surrounded Voldemort last time..." Black explained to him the kind of monitoring mirror he made, and the monitoring room arranged with the monitoring mirror.

"I see! This is a good thing! When can you give me a set?" Grindelwald was very interested in this kind of monitoring item. There was no way, he had many enemies, so he had to be on guard...

"Of course, if you need it." Black did not refuse.

"So... do we need to monitor everyone in the castle? Or... focus on monitoring outsiders? For example, teachers and students from other schools?" Grindelwald said in a deep voice.

"Although the person who sneaked in may not be a teacher or student from outside, but... I have to say that you are more suspicious." Black pondered for a moment and asked again: "Professor, among the students you brought, are there any students who have recently joined and are very low-key?"

"No." Grindelwald shook his head. "These are students who have studied in our school for at least two years, and they are not recent students."

"Then you should be very familiar with them."

"Of course, each of them was selected by me personally." Grindelwald said. (To read the novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

This is indeed the truth. In order to bring glory to Nurmengard, he must choose the best students. He knows these students very well!

"So... have you noticed any students who have been behaving strangely recently?" Black asked again.

Grindelwald narrowed his eyes, "Are you suspecting someone is impersonating our students who are visiting the school? None of my students have behaved strangely..."

"Of course, it is not ruled out that he is particularly good at acting." Grindelwald began to recall the students he had selected, trying to find out the flaws that might appear in them.

"Not necessarily..." Black said helplessly: "There is another possibility, that is, they have already prepared for today's events, and have already sent people to lurk in your school, and then waited for a few years, and then tried to find a way to start the Triwizard Tournament again... So, their identities may not be a problem."

The three of them were silent again, which was very difficult to deal with. It can be said that there is no clue at all. Could it be that they can only wait until the second selection of warriors?Identify the suspect again?

However, not being selected for the second time is not enough to prove that the warrior who failed this time has problems. He can only be considered a suspect.

The other party flatly denies it. You can't use Legilimency to force a student to read his mind or inject Veritaserum without evidence. The student is just a suspect, not a criminal.

Dumbledore suddenly said: "Since Harry has been added... then, we assume that their target is Harry, then... who else wants Harry's life? We all saw it with our own eyes... Tom is dead..."

The most loyal Death Eaters are either dead or still in Azkaban.

Dumbledore does not believe that those former Death Eaters who are still at large, traitors in Voldemort's eyes, will take such a big risk for their masters who have disappeared for many years.

So, there must be other reasons! For example, the person who took action... is it a third party force other than the Death Eaters!

"Black... do you have anything to say to me? Anything is fine..." Dumbledore looked into Black's eyes seriously and asked slowly.

Black was stunned for a moment, frowned and thought for a moment, then sighed and said: "Professor... I always hope you don't ask... I really hope you can stay out of it before. But... now it seems that I really took it for granted. You are the headmaster of Hogwarts and one of the people who promoted Voldemort's death. You can't stay out of it..."

"So... what's going on?" Dumbledore frowned and asked.

"The Tower... a mysterious and powerful organization... those vampires who stopped us from destroying Voldemort were just the minions of the Tower... they helped Voldemort, and there must be a plan we don't know, but we designed to kill Voldemort... that is to say, their plan failed."

"The Tower... is the organization of the previous necromancer?" Dumbledore thought of the powerful necromancer who rode the bone dragon.

"No... In the matter of the tower, the necromancer is our ally. I can't tell you more." Grindelwald took the initiative to explain for Black.

Dumbledore stopped probing about the necromancer because he always knew... Black was extremely good at necromancy... and had summoned the ghosts of James and Lily.

So, the necromancer must be related to Black. Considering Black's extraordinary intelligence network, the answer is actually very obvious...

"The tower... so..." Dumbledore pondered, "When Azkaban was invaded and the Dementors rioted, it must have been their work."

"Yes. This is to release Bella and Barty Jr. to resurrect Voldemort. Only when Voldemort is resurrected can their plan proceed smoothly." Black explained.

"No wonder you made so many defenses in Hogwarts... It turns out that we have offended each other to death..." DumbledoreLido said helplessly.

Grindelwald said: "The organization of the necromancers has always been fighting against the Tower. So, we thought before that the main hatred of the Tower was the organization of the necromancers... But now it seems that they have a new plan."

However, without any clues, even the three of them could not figure out what the other party's plan was.

"Perhaps, the target is still Harry..." Black suddenly thought of a very absurd possibility...

"Could it be that Voldemort is not really dead?"

Voldemort is indeed completely dead, he can judge it himself, but the other party's behavior is indeed puzzling!

Moreover, considering that the other party has something like the Ring of Power, Black does not rule out the possibility that Voldemort will passively resurrect.

"We all saw it with our own eyes, Black... That is indeed the appearance of the Horcrux owner's complete death." Grindelwald is a senior black wizard. Although he did not make Horcruxes, he is not unfamiliar with these black magics.

"I have a way to verify it." Black said.

"What method?"

"I'm going to go to the Twilight Zone to have a look. The creator of the Horcrux has an incomplete soul and can neither move forward nor backward... They will be trapped in the Twilight Zone forever! So, if he is still there, it's okay, but if he is not there..."
