Harry Potter's Cousin Dudley at Hogwarts

"Thank God, Dudley, you're awake at last." Harry, Hermione and Ron happily came to the infirmary to visit him when they heard the news that Dudley had woken up.

As soon as the infirmary door opened and they saw Dudley sitting on the bed, Hermione rushed to hug him.Ron muttered, "Hermione, you should thank Merlin." Being pulled away, Hermione said dissatisfiedly to Ron, "Indeed, I have to thank Merlin for his socks."

Harry's green eyes filled with tears involuntarily. "Dudley, seeing you lying in the hospital bed, you know how worried I was." Dudley hugged Harry tightly, feeling him sobbing on his shoulder, patting his back with his hand.

"Okay, Harry, I'm fine!" Dudley said reassuringly, and continued to hug Harry tightly.Hermione also hugged Harry from behind, she knew Harry's anxiety these days.

Ron scratched his hair and reached out to join them in the embrace.

After a while, everyone calmed down and started chatting.

"Dudley, you are so lucky. Tonight is the year-end banquet at Hogwarts school. You can eat delicious food as soon as you wake up." Ron said happily while chatting.

"Really? That's pretty lucky." Through the chat just now, Dudley already had a rough idea of ​​what happened these days.

That night, Harry, Hermione and the others came to the infirmary to find Dudley to attend the Hogwarts year-end banquet tonight.

However, there were some small twists and turns in the middle. Ms. Pomfrey in the infirmary stopped Dudley and insisted on checking him again.

So, when Dudley and the others rushed to the auditorium, the Hogwarts auditorium was already full of people.

Today the Great Hall is decorated with Slytherin green and silver to celebrate their seventh consecutive House Cup win.

On the wall behind the professors' seats hung a huge banner with a painting of a Slytherin snake.

When Dudley and the others walked into the auditorium, the noisy scene fell silent for an instant, and then everyone suddenly started talking loudly, and Dudley could even feel their eyes were on their side.

Dudley pulled Harry and the others towards the Gryffindor table.When the Gryffindors saw them approaching, they made room for them to sit down.

"Damn it, their eyes make me think we're like a bunch of monkeys now," Ron muttered.

"Don't pay attention to them, mouths grow on their empty heads." After being talked about for a while, Hermione was immune to those gazes. "They can say whatever they want without losing a piece of meat to us. If it goes too far, I don't mind teaching them a lesson. "

"That's right, Ron, ignore them." Harry agreed, and now he wanted the banquet to start, and then hurriedly finished his food and left the auditorium.

"Harry, Hermione, you have changed, especially you, Hermione. I still remember when you hid in the girls' bathroom and cried." Ron said to Hermione.

"Ron, if you dare to mention that again, believe it or not, I'll hang you up immediately." Hermione threatened Ron.

"Ron, don't mess with Hermione," Harry said to Ron. "If you are really hung up then, you will be ashamed."

"Okay, okay, Dumbledore is here." Dudley said.

With the arrival of Dumbledore, the hustle and bustle in the auditorium gradually subsided, and everyone's eyes were on Dumbledore.

"Another year has passed!" said Dumbledore cheerfully, his voice loud and passionate. "Before we indulge in these delicious dishes, I must trouble everyone to listen to an old man repeating the same old tune. What a year it has been! Your little heads must be a little richer than in the past...  The whole summer vacation ahead is waiting for you, so I can let you digest the knowledge you have learned this year before the start of the next semester, so that your brain can make room for the next year's study..."

"Now, as far as I know, we will first hold the Academy Cup awards ceremony. The specific scores of each academy are as follows: No.4, Gryffindor, 312 points; No.3, Hufflepuff, 352 points; No.2, Hufflepuff, 426 points; No. .472, Ravenclaw, [-] points; and the champion is Slytherin, [-] points!"

There was a thunderous cheer and stamping of feet across the Slytherin table at Dumbledore's words.Ron saw Draco Malfoy banging his goblet on the table vigorously, he was so proud of Malfoy, even though Malfoy played with them secretly now, he still felt very sick to see him now .

"Damn Malfoy!" Ron cursed under his breath.

"Okay, Ron." Harry reassured him.

"Yeah, yeah, well done, Slytherin this year," said Dumbledore, and he motioned for silence. “However, several recent events must also be counted.”

After saying this, Dumbledore's eyes became serious, as if he had something important to announce.

After hearing Dumbledore's words, the auditorium suddenly became very quiet, and even the smiles of the Slytherins restrained a little.

"Cough, cough," Dumbledore cleared his throat, "I've got some last points to split. Let me see. By the way..."

"First—Miss Hermione Granger...for her calm logical reasoning in the face of disaster, I'd like to award Gryffindor House fifty points."

Hermione buried her face in her arms; Harry looked at Hermione, wondering if she must be crying secretly.

"Second - Mr. Ron Weasley..."

Hearing his name, Ron's face flushed red, looking like a sun-burned tomato.

"...he won the best game of chess at Hogwarts in many years, for which I award Gryffindor House fifty points."

The cheers of the Gryffindors nearly knocked the enchanted ceiling over.

When everyone finally calmed down, Dumbledore began to speak again.

"Third - Dudley Dursley..." said Dumbledore.The auditorium suddenly became extremely quiet. "...he displayed a fearless spirit of sacrifice and extraordinary courage, for which I would also like to award Gryffindor House sixty points."

The noise was deafening.Those shouted hoarsely.

Some students who counted the scores in their minds knew that Gryffindor was now at 470 two points - exactly the same as Slytherin's score, and they were already close to the House Cup champion.

Dumbledore raised a hand, and the hall gradually fell silent again.

"Finally, there is our Harry Potter, who managed to prevent a catastrophe, for which I would also like to award Gryffindor House sixty points."
