Hogwarts Scholar System

Chapter 38 Quidditch Competition

Doing what comes to mind, Maple originally went to see Mrs. Hooch, but was told that she was not at school.After asking around, I found out that she was not only the school's flying professor, but also the school's Quidditch referee. Mrs. Hooch was often invited to games outside the school, and she was also qualified to serve as a referee in the Quidditch World Cup.I dare say school is my side job!No wonder there are so few flying lessons in school, and they are only taught in the first grade.

She won't be back until the first Quidditch match, so she probably won't be able to make it in time.Then Maple directly asked the elves to give his suggestion to Professor Dumbledore. He was just a suggestion and did not expect to get the principal's approval. However, he did not expect that Dumbledore not only agreed, but also gave it to Maple. Fifty points added.

And he also sent a reply saying that he would convey Maple's proposal to the wizard in charge of the Quidditch World Cup, which made Maple a little flattered.

Soon, Maple learned from the Gryffindor team that Hogwarts' Quidditch was going to adopt new rules for the next first game.

The adoption of new rules will undoubtedly require certain modifications to the Golden Snitch, but Dumbledore happened to know Nicolas Flamel, the best alchemist in Europe.

Maple's request was not difficult or even challenging for Nicoléme, but his fantastic idea amazed Nicoléme.Over the years, no one has put forward some suggestions for changes to Quidditch, but few wizards with Maple's depth have done it.In his long career, Nicolas Flamel probably never thought that an 11-year-old child could give such wonderful advice to Quidditch.

The day before the Quidditch match, Harry and Snape had another unpleasant collision.

Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Maple took advantage of the recess to go outside to the cold yard. Hermione used magic to conjure a handful of bright blue flames for them, which could be carried around in a jam jar. carry.Although Maple knew how to use a heating charm, she still accepted Hermione's gift.They stood with their backs to the fire for warmth.

At this moment, Snape crossed the yard.Harry noticed immediately that Snape was walking with a limp.Harry, Ron and Hermione moved closer, trying to block the flames from others, knowing that this was certainly not allowed.

Maple looked at Snape's injured leg thoughtfully. Lu Wei's bite could be considered a severe magical injury.I didn't expect that this guy who only dozed off could actually have such an ability. So many days had passed since Halloween, and Snape, as the master of potions, still couldn't heal the wound. The poison was almost close to the level of a werewolf. Bar.You know, Madam Pomfrey can cure even the poison of the young dragon.And Snape's injury could not be cured after spending so much time. No wonder Voldemort also wanted to use tricks to find out how to deal with Lu Wei.

It's just that the way to deal with such a powerful creature is so simple, just play music and make it fall asleep. Isn't this strange and incredible?

The guilty expressions on Harry's and the other's faces caught Snape's attention. He limped over, and he really didn't miss any way to take pleasure from Harry.

"What's that in your hand, Potter?"

It was "Quidditch Origins" and Harry showed it to him.

"Library books are not allowed out of the school," said Snape. "Give it to me. Five points from Gryffindor."

"He made up a temporary rule," Harry muttered angrily as he watched Snape limp away. "I wonder what happened to his leg?"

"I don't know, but I hope it hurts a lot," Ron said gleefully.

In the evening, Harry wanted to get "Quidditch Origins" back, but Ron and Hermione persuaded him not to go after hearing about it. "Quidditch Origins" was a book borrowed by Hermione, and she didn't mind it, but Harry still insisted on getting the book back.

By coincidence, Harry saw Snape's embarrassing scene, a bloody injured leg, and the flesh was bloody. It seemed that Quirrell had played a cruel trick on Snape and left him in Luwei. In front of him, he ran away.

The coma spell has no effect on the three-headed Lu Wei, and Lu Wei himself should have strong magic resistance. In addition, Lu Wei is also the mechanism that protects the magic stone. He is one of his own. Snape can't use the powerful black magic weapon. Magic, that's why I got hurt.

"Damn thing," Snape said, "how can you stare at three heads at the same time?"

Unfortunately, after these words fell into Harry's ears, Snape was directly targeted by Harry's original thief who coveted the Philosopher's Stone.

After Snape got angry, Harry hurried back and told Maple and the others what he had discovered.

''Do you know what that means?'' he said at last, holding his breath. ''On Halloween, he was trying to pass that big dog with three heads! That's where he was going when we saw him. —He's looking for that thing the big dog is guarding! I'll bet my broomstick that he let that monster in to distract people!"

Hermione's eyes widened.

"No, he won't," she said. "I know he's not very nice, but he would never steal something from Dumbledore's carefully guarded collection."

"To be honest, Hermione, you always think that all teachers are saints." Ron said rudely, "I agree with Harry. "I think Snape can do anything. "

"I don't think Professor Snape is a thief either. It's impossible to determine the truth with just a few words. Harry, you have to understand that Professor Snape saved my life just like Professor McGonagall and Professor Dumbledore." , so if you can’t produce more concrete evidence, then don’t expect me to agree with your view on Professor Snape.” Maple said seriously.

The next day, Harry's first Quidditch match began.Maple also took a rare break and prepared to relax.

Although he usually trained very well, Harry was still very nervous when he went on the field for the first time and couldn't even eat breakfast.

In the end, after everyone's continuous persuasion, Simo's words worked, and he finally ate something.

By eleven o'clock, it seemed that all the teachers and students of the school were in the stands surrounding the Quidditch pitch.Many students also brought binoculars.The seats were literally raised into the air, but it was still difficult to see the action at times.

Maple was now considered a little wealthy, so he bought a telescope for Ron and Hermione so that they could watch the game easily.

Ron and Hermione made their way to the top row, joining Neville, Seamus and Dean, a West Ham fan.In order to surprise Harry, they used a sheet stained by the little mouse Scabbers to draw a huge banner, which said Potter must win. Dean, who is good at drawing, also drew a big banner underneath. Findor Lion.

Then Maple and Hermione worked together to complete a magic. A lifelike phantom of a mighty lion appeared from the canvas, looking as if it jumped out of the painting. It breathed out a mouthful of fire, and then a charred corpse of a snake appeared in front of it. fall.

Gryffindor immediately let out lively cheers, while the Slytherin snakes glared, but unfortunately, none of them could cast such ingenious magic.You know, in order to create this magic phantom, the two of them spent a lot of time together, and they also bought a lot of magic fireworks for research. They used some magic fireworks materials and magic to finally create this short-lived phantom.

Soon, both teams changed their clothes and started playing, and Mrs. Huo Qi finally came back to referee the game.

At her command, all team members mounted their broomsticks.Then Mrs. Hooch blew the silver whistle, all the broomsticks flew into the sky, and the game began.

"The Quaffle was immediately snatched by Angelina Johnson of Gryffindor - what a great Chaser that girl was, and also very attractive -"

Lee Jordan, a good friend of the Weasley brothers, is also a very interesting person, and Maple thinks that Professor McGonagall might make the game more interesting if she doesn't stop him.But if Li Qiaodan knew that the beautiful girl he was praising now ended up in the hands of his good friend George Weasley, I wonder if he would want to go up to him for a duel.

After Maple changed the rules, it was all Chasers for half an hour. Coupled with the strong smell of gunpowder between Gryffindor and Slytherin some time ago, the game quickly entered the atmosphere. It was even more intense than expected.The Weasley brothers had to step up to protect the Gryffindor girls while hitting the Bludgers.Because of the instigation of Maple, the butterfly, Slytherin began to take advantage of his tall body.

Due to Gryffindor's physical weakness and fear of injuries to female players on his team, Gryffindor adopted a more conservative defensive stance.Fortunately, with Wood, an excellent goalkeeper, Slytherin failed to succeed in several attacks, and Gryffindor finally scored its first goal only 10 minutes into the game.

The cheers of the Gryffindors echoed in the cold sky, mixed with the roars and groans of the Slytherins.

With the collision obviously escalating, Hermione and the others were more worried about Harry's safety, so they stopped watching the game. Their telescopes did not leave Harry's sight most of the time.

Harry was very high in the air, gliding lightly above the arena. Although there was nothing to do for three ten minutes, that didn't mean nothing was done.Only by understanding the snitch's whereabouts in advance can you catch the golden snitch faster in 10 minutes.

After Gryffindor scored, Harry did a few jumps to express his joy, and then went back to look for the Snitch.

Under the new rules, even if the Golden Snitch is discovered within 10 minutes, there is no way to catch it.Therefore, there was no bad incident in which Harry was caught on the broomstick. It was just that after discovering the Golden Snitch, Harry did nothing.He pretended to have spotted the snitch in the other direction, misleading the Slytherin Seeker to fly in that direction.

After killing for a while, Mrs. Huo Qi finally blew the whistle for the second time. Three ten minutes had passed and the Golden Snitch's protection period had expired.

Harry immediately made a sharp turn that was unexpected by Slytherin, and then accelerated directly towards the location of the Golden Snitch in the opposite direction. Only then did Slytherin's Seeker realize that he had been fooled.However, due to Harry's premeditated preparations and the speed advantage of the Nimbus 2000, the best flying broomstick he had obtained, Slytherin simply could not catch up.

But just when Slytherin's seeker was regretting it, an accident happened. No, for him, it was a miracle and a surprise.Harry's broom suddenly lost control. His flying broom suddenly shook horribly, and even tried to drop its owner.

The broomstick turned left and right through the air, shaking violently from time to time. Because Harry had obviously discovered the snitch just now, so the game was likely to end, so everyone was paying attention to Harry.Now I noticed the abnormality of Harry's broom for the first time.

The broom twitched and twisted wildly as it slowly, higher and higher lifted Harry further away from the playing field.Fortunately, in this chaos, the Golden Snitch disappeared. Otherwise, if Slytherin's Seeker caught him at this moment, Gryffindor would have lost.

Everyone in the stands turned their attention to Harry. His broomstick began to roll and roll, and Harry could barely hold on without falling.Suddenly, the broomstick twisted wildly again, and Harry was thrown off.He was now hanging on the broom handle with only one hand.

"Harry!" Hermione screamed. Not only Hermione, many Gryffindor students were worried about Harry. In contrast, Slytherin was gloating.

"When Flint Shin hit him just now, was there something wrong with the broom handle?" Seamus whispered.

"Impossible," Hagrid said, his voice trembling slightly, "Except for powerful black magic, nothing can interfere with a flying broomstick. It is impossible for a child to cast such magic on Nimbus 2000."

Hearing Hagrid's words, Hermione's heart immediately moved, and then she grabbed Hagrid's telescope. She did not raise her head to look at Harry, but turned her sight to the crowd, especially——

"Snape! It's really him!" Hermione gasped.

Ron grabbed the binoculars.Snape stood in the middle of the stands opposite them.His eyes were fixed on Harry and he was mumbling something silently.

"He's up to no good - jinxing the broomstick," said Hermione.

"Isn't it possible?" Using the telescope to see Snape chanting the curse, Maple seemed to have received a huge blow. Her eyes were fixed in Snape's direction, with a look of disbelief and unwillingness to accept the reality.I have to say, his acting skills are pretty good, I applaud him.

Seeing Maple's appearance, Hermione showed an unbearable look on her face, then went out alone, trudged through the crowd, and rushed to Snape's side.True to form, Hermione knocked Professor Quirrell down to the front seat, and then lit a fire for Snape, which was the fire she had used to keep Harry and the others warm.

After Snape let out a scream when he realized he was on fire, Hermione quickly put the blue flame back into the jar in her pocket and hurried back.

Snape never knew what was going on!

Of course, this is just Hermione's own idea. Does Snape really not know?Hehe, Maple could see clearly from a distance.But from such a distance, he couldn't see Snape's expression clearly.Probably relieved, then annoyed.Not only was he angry that Hermione had dared to offend him, but he was also angry that Hermione treated him as a villain.

Harry was suddenly able to climb back on the broom, which undoubtedly made Hermione and Harry more confident in their suspicions.Then let them continue to dig into the mud hole, anyway, it will not affect the final outcome.

Suddenly, Harry dived towards the ground quickly. Maple saw the expression on Harry's face was very interesting. He must have thought that he would catch the Snitch like this.Of course, this was mainly due to Quirrell's black magic, which kept him unable to free his hands, so he just grabbed it with his mouth.

Quirrell was working his dark magic on his broom as usual, and Harry happened to catch the Snitch in his mouth again.

"I caught the Snitch!" Harry shouted after he landed on the ground and pulled the Snitch out of his mouth. Harry swung the pale golden Snitch high above his head, and the game ended in chaos.

"110 points to [-] points, Gryffindor wins!"
