Hogwarts 1991

Chapter 374 Drift and Fire Dragon

All of a sudden, the Snitch stopped abruptly, like a brat who couldn't figure it out, and turned around and flew in the other direction.

But at this moment Harry and Cho Chang couldn't stop, couldn't stop - they were only a meter or two away from the ground.

Jordan's scream came from the magic radio,

"Harry Potter! Cho Chang! They're about to catch the Snitch. Which team will win the game!"

"—Oh, no! The Snitch turned and ran!"

"—God! The two of them are going to collide!"

Hermione lowered her head and covered her face hard, not daring to watch what happened next.

But unexpectedly——

"How is it possible!" McGuffin yelled, and he punched the wooden frame of the stand in front of him.

"Oh, Merlin!" Jordan exclaimed in surprise.

Everyone was almost frightened by the scene in front of them.

At the last second, Harry stopped the broom in an emergency, and violent sparks erupted from the flames at the tail of the magic broom. He pulled a line of fire parallel to the ground and passed by, like a racing car drifting, almost making a sharp turn of ninety degrees.

Harry, like a guitar player, grabbed the broom with one hand to prevent himself from being thrown off the broom by this crazy move. On the other hand, he had great difficulty in the process, leaning his body weirdly to maintain his balance.

The flying broom vibrated back and forth. The most exaggerated thing was that he was thrown and even hung upside down on the broom. His scalp rubbed against the grass and flew for a certain distance before being pulled up by the flying broom.

During this process, he has maintained an extremely exaggerated flying speed, and he doesn't know how to react.

Just like that, as if doing acrobatics, Harry brushed the ground, quickly rushed to the sky above the field on the other side, and reached out to catch the jumping ball.

Harry held it high, the golden ball glistening in his hand.

On the other side, Qiu Zhang landed heavily. Fortunately, Mrs. Huo Qi just rushed over, and she directly shot out a spell, turning the ground into some kind of elastic fluid to catch it.

Afterwards, Madam Pomfrey and Cho Chang's boyfriend, Cedric Diggory, rushed to the arena almost simultaneously. (Although Cedric broke the rules, the professors didn't say much)
Hermione released her hands from her face in two distinct yells (a loud cheer from the Gryffindors and a groan from the Ravenclaw wizards).

She was very surprised and surprised to see that Harry was safe and sound, and asked the MacGuffin next to her loudly.

"What happened!"

At this time, after checking that Qiu Zhang didn't seem to be seriously injured, Mrs. Huo Qi finally blew the whistle.

She declared the game over.

— Gryffindor won!
All the Gryffindor players in their scarlet Quidditch robes rushed towards Harry without slowing down.

Instead of throwing Harry off the broom just now, it knocked him right off the broomstick.

Almost everyone in the audience applauded and cheered for Harry's final performance at the last moment.

Gryffindor supporters jumped from the stands (with shock absorbing charms) and ran onto the pitch in a mess.

Ron took the lead and rushed up.

He yelled, "You did it! - Well done Harry, we've won, we've won!"

Hermione hesitated, but finally watched Ron still not go down.

Percy came to Hermione and Harry with a complicated expression, "Have any of you seen Penello? Damn it, I'm going to tell her that the bet doesn't count!"

McGuffin and Hermione shook their heads.

Apparently Percy won the bet and lost his girlfriend.

"By the way, when you see Harry, tell him about it for me—good job! That last kick was brilliant!" He forced a smile and hurried into the Ravenclaw crowd over there.

"I hope Percy is okay!"

After being happy for a while, Hermione saw Ron cheering loudly there again, and said to McGuffin very disappointed, "Go and see Harry and the others! I won't go."

"No!"

"Let's go back first! Anyway, they will definitely go to the common room to hold a party as usual. Don't worry!"

"And it suddenly occurred to me that I had something to do with Percy, not to mention he'd be dumped if I didn't help!"

Hermione was also amused to laugh at the thought of Percy's half-joyed, half-sorrowed face.

She braced herself and McGuffin found Percy on the edge of the field.

McGuffin made a suggestion to Percy, he came to help McGuffin learn the [Untraceable Stretch Curse], and McGuffin paid him ten Galleons.

"Professor Snape has already taught me a lesson. I must find a professor to supervise the learning of this spell. I remember that Hogwarts School stipulates that the chairman of the male student union is also qualified for this!"

"Of course, it's not free. How about ten Galleons? It just happens to be the bargaining chip for your bet. You can use this to reconcile with Penello! Buy her a gift!"

"This, how embarrassing this is!"

Percy flushed.

"It's all right! Besides, you are right. You did give me some advice on the broomstick at that time, and many dangerous accidents were avoided."

"Let's go back to the dormitory first, let me bring it to you... You'd better think about a way to get both sides, how can you calm her down!"

"Yes!" Percy hurriedly left the stands with McGuffin and Hermione and returned to the castle.

After McGuffin returned to the dormitory to find the money bag and paid the reward in advance, Percy hurriedly left the Gryffindor Tower and went to Ravenclaw.

Then, Ron, George, and Fred brought a large group of supporters back to the Gryffindor common room, where a party began and lasted into the evening.

The twins even went straight to a carton of Three Broomsticks drinks like Butterbeer, Fizzy Pumpkin Juice, and huge bags of Honeydukes candy.

(Don't think about it, these two guys must have gone to Hogsmeade, but no one cares about it, everyone is eagerly talking about the game just now)
The party was lively and noisy, and everyone was full of praise for the skill Harry showed in the last scene, saying that it was almost the most handsome movement skill in the history of Quidditch.

Wood drank a blue bottled cocktail called Edindra Depth Charge. He looked drunk, staggered, and with a flushed face, he held Harry tightly and yelled,

"That technique was invented by us..."

Before he finished speaking, he wobbled and fell directly on Ron beside him.

Ron was taking the toad jumping candy from Fred's hand and sprinkled it into the air. When these weird little candies fell to the ground, they would bounce and disappear, and then they would jump back and forth on the little wizard's clothes after a while.

Although it looked harmless, it evoked screams from the little wizards in the lower grades.

The whole room was buzzing, except for MacGuffin and Hermione who were not at the party.

"Don't worry about my feelings, you go and participate!" Hermione said sadly and melancholy, she pretended that she was reading a big book "Life and Social Habits of a British Muggle Family".

Obviously not long ago, this guy complained that the book was full of mistakes and omissions.

At this time, Harry also walked over from Colin Creevey with two bottles of Butterbeer.

"McGuffin, didn't you go to the game, Hermione?"

He hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Of course I did. I'm glad we won, I think you did a great job, but I have to finish reading this book by Monday." Hermione raised her big head.

McGuffin took the butterbeer handed over by Harry, and with a flick of his finger, the tightly closed lid was opened.

With Hermione shaking her head and saying no to drink, he re-handed the other opened bottle to Harry.

"Congratulations, Harry! Well done to that last drift!"

"Thanks!"

"By the way, how did you come up with the last action? How did you do it? It's not a Muggle racing competition? How could you make such an action?"

McGuffin couldn't figure it out.

"Oh, after the built-in braking device of [Global Light Wheel Company], the new broom can decelerate rapidly in a short period of time. Unfortunately, the flexibility and balance are still lacking."

"However, during a training session, Wood and I unexpectedly discovered that this aspect can be compensated by some kind of technique. In the case of emergency braking deceleration, this broom can slide briefly in mid-air, and then we suddenly accelerate in another direction. Because the broom itself accelerates too fast, and the broom itself is much stronger than before, we can perform this kind of 'car drifting' technique."

"You're right, I got my inspiration from Muggle racing," said Harry.

"Originally Wood wanted me to keep this secret against the Slytherin team, but I didn't expect the Ravenclaw team to be so difficult to deal with. You also saw the last chase... We almost lost."

"By the way, have you seen the expression on the face of Slytherin Quidditch captain Fettling? It seems that you hit them hard this time..."

Harry and McGuffin laughed, touched the yellow beer bottle just for this, and each took a big swig.

"what!"

"Delicious!" continued the MacGuffin, after eating a piece of lemon sorbet.
"However, to be honest, Harry, that action is too dangerous. You should be prepared for protection. It would be better to bring some alchemy items with shock-absorbing spells or protective spells."

"Well, Mrs. Hooch said the same thing, and Mrs. Pomfrey even scolded Wood like hell."

"However, Mrs. Hooch is also excited about this new technology. She thinks it is a powerful development of the new broom, which greatly complements the lack of flexibility of the original new broom."

"She said that this completely marks the dawn of a new era, and that [Universal Nimbus] can't say anything to Hogwarts this time around because of the contract. And she's going to apply for a fund from the Sports Department of the British Ministry of Magic to buy us some protective equipment with alchemy."

At this time, Wood, who was in the crowd, was completely drunk.

He jumped onto the table, took off his robe, bent his legs, and squatted down, imitating the toad on Neville's head, croaking and jumping, and competed with Laife (the toad).

Everyone laughed together, George, and Fred hastily put down the activity of using butterbeer tricks, and directly borrowed the magic camera from Colin Creevey,

——Crack!

They pressed the shutter of the camera, and the purple smoke continued to fly to the ceiling of the lounge, leaving behind a series of 'crime' negatives, recording this unforgettable moment.

The atmosphere of the party was completely pushed to a climax at this moment.

Harry stood up hurriedly, trying to pull Hermione and Ron to reconcile, "Come on, Hermione, come to the banquet and have something to eat together!"

——'Maybe Ron shouldn't blame Hermione now! '

"I can't, Harry, I have 420 pages to read before my next Muggle Studies class!"

"Besides..." She carefully looked at Ron's expression, "He doesn't want me to participate."

Apparently, Ron still hadn't let go of old rat-spotted chap.

This guy seemed to have drunk Wood's depth charge wine, his face was flushed, and his words didn't match his words, "—hiccup! If Scabbers hadn't been eaten, he could still eat these few Fudge flies now... He's so weak and fluffy..."

Hermione cried, picked up the big book directly, covered her face and fled the common room.

But what is Ron crying about?
Ron raised his hands to hold it, as if he was holding Banban, crying loudly, his whole body was swaying.

—totally stupid.

It was almost as good as Wood, who was about to kiss the twins who had snatched Neville's toad Rifle, under the prank of the twins.

The sound of the camera shutter snapping!
Harry had meant to say something about Ron.

But McGuffin grabbed him and said, "Didn't you see that this guy is completely drunk? He will regret it when he wakes up."

"But why are there so many owls outside?"

The two turned their heads to look at the renovated glass wall in the lounge.

——The moon was sparse outside the castle, and groups of owls were flapping their wings, flying around the Gryffindor tower and flying to various places in the castle.

Very strange.

But then, McGuffin, Harry, and other little wizards gathered at the banquet again.

The twins were laughing and playing with the drunk Ron and Wood, making all kinds of weird and funny moves.

When Ron talked about Scabbers, he cried like a snot curse.

And his two brothers took pictures of this ugly picture.

The party continued, and it seemed that everyone was ready to party all night.

Until two o'clock in the morning, a group of people (Ron and Wood) had already hugged the legs of the table, lying on the ground in a strange position and fell asleep.

And at this moment, a deafening and sharp roar suddenly came from outside the castle...

Most of the people were awakened at once. They came to the large glass curtain wall and stood in a row to look out.

——In the moonlight, the scenery near the castle can be seen at a glance, only a few flames are dancing and dancing in the dark sky in the distance.

For a brief moment, McGuffin thought he saw several bonfires, and someone was holding a celebration banquet outside... Many of the drunken senior wizard students thought so too.

But then they immediately understood, and were frightened into a cold sweat-the bonfire couldn't burn in mid-air.

And the sharp and terrifying roars were followed by roars, and the impact shook the entire glass wall.
Two or three huge black shadows approached quickly, and they got closer... Flying towards the castle,

Under the moonlight, they clearly saw the bright scales on the front of the wings glistening.

——Fire Dragon!
