Seeing Professor Victor being so rude, Professor McGonagall coughed twice: "Victor, sit down."

Professor Victor slowly sat down.

Professor McGonagall went against her usual serious face, showed an encouraging smile, looked at Hermione, and nodded.

Professor Lupine looked at Hermione approvingly and blinked.

Hagrid gave Hermione a thumbs up. Seeing Trelawney looking at him angrily, Hagrid moved his hand towards her and gave her a little thumbs up.

Trelawney was almost driven mad.

What kind of group of colleagues are these? Have I eaten your rice? They all look at me so displeased.

Haha... After all, only a few people understand me. It's not me who is wrong, it's Saionji!

Trelawney closed her eyes, out of sight.

…

After the two sat down facing each other, Trelawney said calmly: "To this day, I still will not change my opinion. On the contrary, I am more firmly convinced of my opinion: Your halo in divination is pitifully dim, even if

Even the firecrackers living in magma are much stronger than you."

Hermione said: "Really? I hope you can stick to this view later."

Trelawney smiled disdainfully.

The divination competition has begun.

The assessment method is open, transparent and very simple.

When the old man Brian Lopez asked who would be willing to be an assistant and provide material for Hermione and Trelawney.

Dozens of students raised their palms in the air and participated enthusiastically.

"Um...Okay, don't worry, everyone has a chance." Brian Lopez said.

Then he randomly selected students and asked Hermione and Trelawney to target the students and perform divination in a certain aspect.

For example, how many people are there in the student's family? How many brothers and sisters are there?

Or in which month a certain student was born?

A certain student's father once suffered a major setback. Please indicate what it was.

A student's younger brother was bitten on the buttocks by a neighbor's goblin when he was seven years old. Is the goblin a male or a female?

Some students even actively asked Hermione and Trelawney that when he was a child, he had a jersey signed by a famous Quidditch player, but it was cut into pieces by one of his two brothers, but after so many years, they all

If you don't admit it, can you tell him who is the culprit?

Wait for this question.

After the two people finished their divination, they wrote the answers on the parchment.

Finally, the students give their answers to verify their divination results.

The questions raised progress from simple to profound, from easy to difficult, and become more and more complex.

Each divination took longer and longer.

Several hours have passed since the game, and the students are still watching the game with great interest.

Hermione and Trelawney used different methods.

Trelawney mainly used methods such as asking students to shake teacups, look at tea leaves, observe students' palm prints, and let students look through tarot cards and crystal balls.

Hermione uses a lot of parchment and quills to make calculations. She will ask her classmates questions, such as birth dates, favorite colors, constellations, etc., and then compare them with the charts and formulas recorded in her mind, and convert them into numbers to perform complex calculations.

permutation algorithm.

Zhang Qiu watched them busy and said in a low voice: "Why do I feel that Trelawney is suddenly so professional? She has never been so... full of wisdom when she was teaching."

Yes. So far, Trelawney's performance is remarkable.

In so many divination times, most of the time, the divination results she obtained were very similar to Hermione's, and they were both correct answers.

"I really can't imagine that she is so powerful. Have we misunderstood her all this time?" Zhang Qiu was obviously unwilling to accept this fact.

"Of course not." Harry smiled.

Use earplugs to listen to the magic so that only Zhang Qiu can hear what he said.

Hearing Harry's words, Zhang Qiu looked surprised.

"Then why don't we tell you right away!"

Harry stopped Zhang Qiu: "Don't worry, don't you see that Hermione is the one who has the upper hand? Win or lose is decided."

…

Hermione added another thick stack of calculation paper, put down her quill, and said to a student in front of her who was waiting for her to give her divination results: "Actually, I think it was a joint crime."

"What?" The student was shocked.

Hermione said: "One first used a black magic potion that did not fade to draw a lot of turtle patterns on it. The other felt that he was still angry, so he took scissors and cut the clothes into pieces."

Hermione said regretfully: "They must hate it so much that you always show off this robe in front of them."

a bolt from the blue!

The boy said in despair: "Why is this, how is this?"

"Nonsense!" Trelawney refuted her with a proud look on her face when she saw Hermione's answer.

"His sister obviously broke it accidentally." Trelawney gave her divination result.

The boy who asked for help came back to his senses, looked at Trelawney suspiciously, and said, "But, I don't have a sister at all."

Trelawney couldn't help but defend herself: "I'm not talking about your biological sister, but other little girls, who are also considered your sisters."

The boy said tangledly: "It's been so long that I can't remember clearly. It seems...my aunt's daughter was a guest at my house that day..."

"Yes, that's right!" Trelawney shouted: "That's her I'm talking about!"

Hermione looked at Brian Lopez for help.

Whenever you are in doubt, Brian Lopez's divination results are authoritative.

Brian Lopez waved his hand and said with a smile: "You have already divined dozens of things. I have already made a judgment in my mind as to which of you has the stronger divine ability."

"Then there is one last challenge, with me as the target. Human thoughts are the most complicated. Please divine what I am thinking about now."

This is a big challenge, because the stronger the magic power of the wizard, the less information that can be divined, let alone thoughts. Also, Brian Lopez is the most powerful person among diviners. Countermeasures

Other fortune tellers have countless methods, which are even more difficult.

Hermione looked confused.

However, she gritted her teeth and started divination. She asked Brian Lopez seventeen questions in a row, which was the most she had ever asked.

After Hermione started making calculations, Brian Lopez walked over to Trelawney's desk and started asking her to read her palm.

Trelawney always lowered her head, not daring to look into Brian Lopez's eyes.

Then he stood in front of the table where the professors were sitting.

When he felt that time was almost up, he said, "Have you got the results yet?"

Trelawny turned the tarot cards over, turned the crystal ball around, and finally pushed the cards onto the table and put the crystal ball back into the square box.

He said unwillingly: "I can't divine it."

Brian Lopez was not surprised by this result at all, but looked at Hermione with a smile.

Trelawney also looked at Hermione, obviously not thinking that Hermione Granger would have any consequences for something she had no clue about.

As expected, Hermione looked very embarrassed.

Hermione read her solution process over and over again, and there were no mistakes.

She looked at Brian Lopez and then at Professor Dumbledore.

Dumbledore was so frightened when Hermione saw him that he couldn't sit still. Could it be that Brian Lopez just thought of some very bad thoughts about me?

Finally, Hermione said very uncertainly: "According to my algorithm, I did come up with an...inappropriate answer."

"Nonsense!" Trelawney glared at Hermione and shouted: "You little liar, it's obvious that you just saw that I had no results and wanted to make up an answer at random, thinking that this would defeat me - it's really despicable.

means."

Brian Lopez glared at Trelawney, who immediately fell silent and lowered her head.

"What did you divine? Child." Brian Lopez looked at Hermione with a smile.

"I..." Hermione hesitated, and finally decided to tell her results: "I 'saw' that... you are calling Professor Dumbledore a stinker because you haven't had time to enjoy the food prepared by your family.

Professor Dumbledore took me over for my Christmas lunch, and now I’m hungry all afternoon again.”

Brian Lopez's hands stiffened and he pulled off a few strands of his white beard.

"Ha! You are really crazy! Do you know how distinguished President Lopez is!" Trelawney shouted sharply.

"Hahahaha..." Brian Lopez laughed suddenly.
