Chapter 36: Goblet of Fire

The tool used for broadcasting was broken by Rolf, but Rita was not panicked. Her specialty was the pen, but her mouth was her weak point, and she could not display her ability to change the situation.

Rita sat down on the edge of the pool, swaying her stocking-wrapped legs provocatively, and said with a smile on her face:

"Mr. Scamander, you don't like broadcasting, so let's just report in plain text. I'm good at writing stories.

Hmm, the ability to unleash lightning without a wand... powerful wandless spellcasting ability? "

As soon as Rita Skeeter finished speaking, the green quill began to write rapidly, the tip of the pen gliding across the parchment dexterously.

"No, Ms. Skeeter, you made a mistake. You are not interviewing me today." Rove smiled slightly and said softly: "It is me interviewing you."

Rita was really stunned this time, and her quill stopped in mid-air.

Rolf ignored Rita's flirtation, but looked directly into her eyes and asked coldly:

"Not long ago, someone bought information from you...and wanted to know the location of Nico Flamel's estate, right?"

Hearing the young man's words, Rita flinched at first, then quickly regained her composure and said with a sweet smile:

"I don't even know where Nico Flamel's manor is, so why would I sell information?"

"If you don't know... then how did you get that photo last summer?" Luo Fe raised the corner of his mouth and sneered:

"Your rumors have caused me trouble a long time ago, and I have never pursued you, but don't blame me for being rude if you send it to my door today.

To be honest, I don't mean to be rude to you, but Ms. Skeeter, you better behave yourself or I won't mind using some unconventional tactics on you. "

"Unconventional means?" Rita was full of energy. She stared at Luo Fu's handsome face, licked her lips and said:

"Mom, I like to go off the beaten path...My child, you don't have to pity me, let me see how rude the famous Scamander can be...oh e on baby!"

As soon as Rita finished speaking, Rolf stretched out his right hand like lightning, twisted her wrist holding the wand, and then he exerted force with five fingers!

Rita's wrist felt like it was being pinched by an iron vice, and her wand fell to the ground with a clang under the stinging pain.

Rolf raised his right knee sharply and hit Rita's abdomen. She immediately turned pale and squatted on the ground, her body curled up and suffering from abnormal cramps. Her eyes were full of tears, and she almost thought she was going to die.

Luo Fu, who showed no mercy at all, turned on the faucet and rinsed his hands that were not clean after using the toilet.

He shook off the water droplets, then remembered that he didn't bring a tissue, so he squatted down, used Rita's expensive robe as a rag, carefully wiped the water stains on his hands, and then said softly:

"Are you satisfied with my service, ma'am? Do you want me to step up my efforts?"

Rita, who was squatting on the ground with her hands on her belly, raised her head and gritted her teeth: "How dare you hit me?!"

"Isn't it normal for a guy like you who spreads rumors and stirs up conflicts all day long to do whatever it takes to sell newspapers?"

Rolf looked at Rita who could no longer maintain her composure and said calmly:

"You can call people, it doesn't matter if you shout to the point of breaking your throat... But you sneaked in for an interview without permission. Do you think the Auror you called is arresting you or me?"

Rita's eyes showed a trace of unwilling anger. She scratched at Luof's face with her sharp nails, but the boy easily dodged it.

Luofu suddenly grabbed Rita's big wavy hair, lifted it up, and then struck the woman's neck with a hand knife. She was so painful that stars popped out of her legs and she almost fainted.

"I said...I said..."

Luofu let go of Rita's curly hair, smiled, and said sincerely: "It would have been better if it had been like this, why did you suffer so much."

Rita covered her neck, her face full of pain, and said with a frown:

"The summer before last, I followed the wizards who attended the funeral and determined the approximate location of Nico Flamel's manor, but due to the Fidelity Charm, I was unable to enter.

I also sold the information... I didn't see that person either, they all relied on letters..."

"As long as it's you." Rolf narrowed his eyes, but he didn't expect Hermione to guess correctly.

"If that person contacts you again and wants to buy any information, you can tell me."

It was Peter and Voldemort who bought the information. Although Peter was dead, Voldemort was still alive. Maybe he would look for Rita again one day.

Rita rubbed her neck and asked cautiously: "Who is that person?"

"You don't want to know who he is." Rove stood up and announced: "Okay, my interview is over."

"Rita Skeeter...you can make up random stories about me in the newspaper, but you must also be prepared to bear the consequences. My anger is not something you can bear."

After Luo Fu finished speaking, he walked away and never looked back.

Rita's legs were weak and she collapsed on the wet ground. The water stains soaked her purple stockings and pants. She didn't care and just breathed heavily.

After a while, Rita stood up holding on to the sink. She took out her makeup mirror from her bag, reapplied her makeup, and regained her calm look, saying excitedly:

"A tough boy...but I like him."

Luofu quickly walked out of the bathroom and walked towards the conference room.

Many people were afraid of Rita, who felt that being targeted by her was like a fart plaster. She would also pry out secrets and write scripted articles, and her reputation would be ruined.

But Rolf was really not afraid. He knew that this woman was an illegal Animagus, turning into a beetle to eavesdrop on information.

As long as he has this handle, it will be enough for Luof to control Rita and make Guaiguai obedient.

Even though Rita is jumping so hard now, she will have a better time in the future.

Rove walked along the corridor and returned to the conference room. At this time, most of the representatives had left, and only Dumbledore and Karkaroff were still here.

In addition, there is one more person in the room.

Luofu looked at the familiar figure and asked in surprise: "Mrs. Maxim, why are you here?"

Maxim, who was wearing a purple satin robe, turned around and saw Rolf, and smiled:

"Rolf, you are still at the German Ministry of Magic. I thought you had left long ago... I was invited by Dumbledore to come to the meeting."

Rolf hummed and was about to say goodbye when Dumbledore waved and said:

"Rolf, let me introduce you...this is Professor Karkaroff, the principal of Durmstrang."

"Hello, Professor Karkaroff." Roof walked over and said with a smile, "We just met and we had a great time chatting."

"Oh, what did you talk about?" Maxim asked.

"It's a matter of school rankings." Rove said: "Karkaroff said that Durmstrang is ranked tenth, which is far inferior to Hogwarts, which is ranked sixth."

"Hey, you can't say that." Dumbledore waved his hand modestly, but couldn't hide his smile and said: "Hogwarts still needs to work hard, and it is not far beyond its friend schools."

Karkaroff's face froze. He did say these words, but they were clearly used to refuse Scamander's transfer to another school. This kid didn't mention them at all.

Just as he was about to refute, Luofu spoke first, pointing to a large wooden box inlaid with jewelry on the table, and asked:

"What's this?"

"Goblet of Fire."

Maxim smiled and opened the box, took out a roughly carved wooden goblet, handed it to Luo Fe, and said:

"It is used to select heroes to participate in the Triwizard Tournament."
