Study Days at Hogwarts

Chapter 299: Illegal assembly?

  Chapter 299 Illegal assembly?

  After the first wizarding card game started, Albert performed his duties as a referee dutifully.

  No way, if no one is watching, the wizard card game will probably become a mess.

  Fred, George, and Lee Jordan were all dragged to do coolies. It seemed a little unreasonable not to be a referee.

  The level of the first knockout match was so low that it was really eye-catching.

  The contestants are from Gryffindor and Hufflepuff respectively. Both of them are not very familiar with the wizard card rules. Because I am not familiar with the wizard card rules, I often make some low-level mistakes.

   Albert looked embarrassed, and had the urge to cover his face.

  The onlookers watched with gusto, murmuring in a low voice that whoever made a mistake again, if all the contestants were of this level, I might be able to win a championship or something like that.

   Some talkative onlookers would point out the mistakes made by the players, and mock them in a low voice, why they signed up for the wizard card competition because they didn't even understand the rules of the game.

  The Hufflepuff boy who made frequent mistakes flushed all over his face. Amidst the whispers of everyone, he finally gave up continuing the game, quickly got into the crowd, and disappeared.

   "What are these things?"

   Albert looked at the sound of the other party leaving, and couldn't help shaking his head. The Hufflepuff student was probably just trying his luck. Normally, he hadn't played wizard cards with other people a few times. Not to mention his poor skills, he didn't understand the rules of wizard cards. I really don't know what kind of mood he had in participating in this wizard card game.

  Another Gryffindor student also looked at the back of his opponent leaving, turned to look at Albert and asked, "I won?"

   "Yes, your opponent forfeit and you win."

   Albert ticked the parchment, then called the next pair of players, and changed the cards in the deck again.

  The knockout round was much faster than Albert expected, and the Hufflepuff boy was definitely not the only contestant who didn't understand the wizard card rules.

  Sometimes, even some ridiculous things will happen.

   "You should have used another spell card, and he would have lost."

   It wasn't just someone who couldn't help but interjected, and one side lost the game as a result.

  Most of the audience present looked towards the owner of the voice.

   "Please keep quiet and don't interfere with other people's games. This is the most basic courtesy of the audience." Albert looked unkindly at the senior student who spoke.

  The man was stunned for an instant, his face blushed, and he didn't refute. Otherwise, it wouldn't be the same as telling everyone that he was a rude person.

   "Please don't interfere with the game." Albert said to the spectators around him, "Also, the round just now started three rounds backwards."

  In the middle of the knockout round, Albert also found that most of the students were not very good at playing wizard cards. A game lasted for a few minutes at most, and the stronger players could always win two games in a row and beat their opponents.

   Most of the players who stand out in the end are acquaintances Albert knows, and only those who often smoke and play cards together can have an advantage in the game.

   If we say that the most exciting wizard card game is the duel between Shannah and Katrina, many people went to watch this evenly matched duel.

   Albert simply dropped his job as a referee and ran over to watch the game.

  In the end, Katrina lost.

   "Wonderful game." Albert began to applaud, and the others were also stunned and began to applaud.

  Katrina was very depressed. She thought it would be easy to win the championship, but she actually lost the game because the deck was drawn first.

   As long as she lasts one more round, she can definitely defeat Shanna.

  Unfortunately, she has already lost and was eliminated in the first round.

   "Albert has an opponent, and I look forward to your defeating him." George smiled and said to Shanna, "At present, you are the most likely seed player to win the championship."

  Albert was speechless immediately. The game has just started. Are you really not afraid of accidents like this?

   "What are you doing here? You're all scattered, don't crowd here."

  An untimely voice sounded outside the crowd of onlookers. Filch pushed aside the crowd and walked towards this side, wanting to see clearly what the **** they were doing.

   "Sir, what's the matter?" Albert asked with a frown.

   "I got a piece of information that someone is holding an illegal assembly here."

  Filch squeezed his way through the crowd of onlookers, his eyes fixed on Fred and George, his slack cheeks trembled with excitement.

   "And you, let's go, don't crowd here." He said to the surrounding crowd.

"what happened?"

  Fred, George, and Lee Jordan also came over, and they all frowned when they saw Filch. It was obvious that this guy appeared here with no good intentions.

   Moreover, if Filch insists that they are an illegal assembly, they really have nothing to do, and this match will become a joke. This is definitely not the ending the three want to see.

"fine."

  Albert comforted the three of them, turned his head to look at Filch, and said calmly, "Illegal assembly? Are you sure your information is correct and you haven't been fooled by anyone?"

   "What do you mean?" Filch said in a bad tone, his eyes fixed on Albert.

"The gathering of the Wizard Card Club has been approved and approved by Headmaster Dumbledore from the very beginning." Albert explained with a smile: "Our gathering is legal, and it has been legal from the beginning. If you don't believe it, I have Principal's signature."

   Albert reached into his pocket and took out a roll of parchment and handed it to the other party.

  Filch took the parchment, glanced at the contents inside, and his face suddenly became gloomy, like a child who heard that Halloween was cancelled.

   "The Wizard Card Club was established with the principal's approval. I think the guy who gave you the information must be looking for faults on purpose."

   Albert stared straight into Filch's eyes, trying to find that person's name from the other party.

   Filch walked away in a huff.

   This dramatic scene made everyone talk about it with gusto. They haven't seen Filch deflated for a long time.

   "When did you prepare the parchment?" Fred asked in a low voice.

"Of course this thing is true, and my words are naturally true." Albert glanced at Fred and said lightly: "The Wizard Card Club has been approved by the principal, and the signature on the parchment is also true. This The activity is conducive to the unity and friendship of the students, so how could the principal not approve it?"

  Actually, the parchment was prepared to prevent a certain professor from coming to make trouble for them. Although the chance was not great, Albert still took precautions.

   After all, some people's integrity is indeed a bit low.

   "Who provided Filch with information." Li Qiaodan was sullen, ready to settle accounts with that person.

  The first Wizarding Card Tournament is of great significance to the four of them, and they will never tolerate someone disrupting it, let alone turning it into a joke.

   "I don't know, let's forget about it." Albert reached out and patted Lee Jordan on the shoulder, "Go back and do your job as a referee. The first round of elimination is not over yet."

   "If you let me know who did a good job, I will definitely teach him an impressive lesson." Fred gritted his teeth.

  If Albert hadn't been prepared, he would have been disgusted.
