Study Days at Hogwarts

Chapter 727: crow's mouth

Chapter 727 Crow’s Mouth

  Rita Skeeter's work efficiency was astonishingly high, and the interview report about Albert appeared on the headlines of the Daily Prophet the next morning.

In newspapers, Albert was described as a genius who could win the championship with his talent and talent even if he encountered unfair competition in the game, leaving a good impression in people's minds.

However, the protagonist of this issue of "The Daily Prophet" is not Albert, but President Bernard, who was accidentally mentioned. This potion master's failure to cheat has become a popular news, and is destined to take over the British magic world in recent times. Joke.

 You can lose even if you cheat, it’s really shameful.

Of course, that report still had some bad effects on Albert’s peaceful campus life.

The girls in the school seemed to remember this young and handsome Hogwarts genius again. Every time Albert walked through the corridor, there would always be girls gathering together to giggle secretly, or even deliberately finding excuses to come and talk to him. , buzzing like a bee, making him tireless.

 In Isobel’s words: “You have never been so lovable as you are now, like a piece of sweet honey that makes flies and bees want to bite you.”

This kind of day did not last long, and everyone's attention was attracted by the Quidditch game, which made Albert couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Speaking of Quidditch matches, it seems that we can see two famous scenes in which Harry Potter falls from the sky and Principal Dumbledore uses the Patronus Charm to drive away the Dementors.

Albert naturally didn’t want to miss it, maybe there would be a chance to trigger a dementor-related mission.

 Experience and rewards are never too much for him.

To the regret of the Weasley twins, the Slytherin team ran away from the upcoming Quidditch match. They used Malfoy's injured arm as an excuse to postpone the match.

At this moment, the two of them were still mumbling something beside Albert, and seemed to regret that they could not use the newly learned skills on them.

 The weather has been very bad recently, and it is difficult for Mrs. Hooch to discover their trick. This is a perfect opportunity.

In fact, everyone can guess why Slytherin doesn't want to play against Gryffindor. The recent weather is really too bad. No one wants to play in such weather, and Quidditch obviously won't be played due to thunderstorms. Canceled for trivial matters.

All right!

Albert viciously guessed that 80% of the unlucky people in history were struck by lightning and turned into coke to remind everyone that flying in thunderstorms is dangerous.

On the day of the game, the wind was blowing hard and it was still storming outside. However, such bad weather still could not stop everyone's enthusiasm for Quidditch. As usual, all the teachers and students of the school came out to the Quidditch pitch to watch the game. .

 “I thought you would give up watching the game.”

Isobel understood Albert's character. He didn't like running outside in bad weather, and he didn't have much enthusiasm for Quidditch.

 If possible, Albert would never want to go to the stadium to watch the game in such bad weather.

"Of course it's because of you. You didn't want to watch the Quidditch match, so I came with you. It's your boyfriend's responsibility."

As he spoke, Albert lowered his umbrella to protect himself from the strong wind.

While walking across the lawn towards the Quidditch pitch, I saw Harry Potter hurriedly running towards the locker room with his head lowered. A burst of ridicule suddenly came from not far away. You could guess who was laughing without looking.

Shortly after entering the stadium, the game started with the whistle.

 “Which side do you think will win?”

"If nothing else happens, Gryffindor will win." Albert raised the rain-covered telescope and looked at the lightning-thundering sky.

 “Will something happen?”

Isobel heard the implication of Albert’s words and also held up the telescope to observe the stadium.

 It was raining heavily, and the rain curtain blocked everyone's sight, making it impossible to see clearly the specific situation of the game.

 Many students could not hold their umbrellas and were blown into the air by a strong wind.

The thick cloaks also failed to protect them from the rain. Most of the students were soaked by the rain and shivering in the cold, but they still cheered enthusiastically. I don’t know where the passion came from.

The sky is getting darker and darker, as if the night has arrived earlier.

The roaring thunder turned into countless lightning bolts in the dark clouds, making people worry about the safety of the players competing.

Flying around under dark clouds on a rainy day, you are likely to be struck by lightning.

Albert's worries were not unreasonable. Not long after the game started, the tail of an unlucky guy's broom was lit on fire, and black smoke mixed with a shrill scream cut through the rain and fell downwards.

 “Can’t you say something nice?”

Isobel put down her binoculars, looked at her potentially crow-mouthed boyfriend beside her speechlessly, and reminded: "You are a Gryffindor student, maybe you have to be a substitute."

"I'm the substitute seeker." Albert corrected, "But let's go over and have a look. I hope she's okay."

 When Albert came to the dressing room, he found that the person who had just fallen was Angelina. The poor girl seemed to be a little frightened.

"are you OK!"

 Albert glanced at the smoking broom on the ground.

“Fortunately, Harry pulled me out in time.” Angelina looked at the broom with its tail fork burned off and said helplessly, “But my broom can’t fly.”

"It doesn't matter, just use my broom!" Albert said nonchalantly.

 “I’m just waiting for your words.” Angelina grinned.

"are you OK?"

Wood flew over in a hurry and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Angelina was fine.

“It’s okay, it’s just that the broom is broken, but Albert lent me the broom and it won’t affect the subsequent games.” Angelina comforted her.

"Thank you, Albert." Wood glanced at the girl next to Albert and raised his eyebrows slightly: "But you shouldn't have brought your girlfriend here."

"Come on, Wood, do you think Ravenclaw needs to get some confidential information from us?" Fred couldn't help but rolled his eyes and joked with a smile: "You shouldn't be jealous. I heard that you and Girlfriend broke up?"

"I'm not jealous, and we didn't break up, we just separated!" Wood said angrily.

“Wow, Fred really hit the mark. Did you really break up?” George had a surprised expression on his face.

"Shut up, don't talk about it at this time." Wood glared at the twins, turned to their ace seeker and said, "Harry, we have to end the game as soon as possible, otherwise the game will drag on for who knows how long."

"I would like to, but the rain will affect my vision, and I can't wear my glasses." Harry was also helpless. It wasn't that he didn't work hard, but that the environment affected his performance. The heavy rain brought a lot of trouble to him. Trouble.

"Is there any good way to help Harry solve this problem?" Wood looked around at his teammates and ensured that Harry's catching the Golden Snitch was his first priority.

 “Generally, you have to ask Albert for this kind of situation.” Fred reminded.

 “Where are the others?” Wood looked around but found no one.

 No one noticed that Albert had quietly left with his girlfriend.

 “You yelled me away,” George said.

 “I didn’t yell at him!”

"Come on Wood, don't be jealous, they are the best couple in school." Aaliya smiled and joked: "There are even rumors that they will get married soon."

"I'm not jealous, don't waste time on these things." Wood was very dissatisfied with the mentality of his team members.

 “You are too nervous, we are still ahead of the Hufflepuff team.” Katie comforted.

 Mrs. Hooch came over and asked Wood if he wanted to continue playing.

When everyone was about to go back to continue the game, Hermione wearing a cloak appeared out of nowhere, smiled and said to Harry: "I have an idea, Harry, give me your glasses."

 After a while, Albert saw Hermione coming out of the dressing room.

"I went to help Harry solve a little trouble." Hermione noticed Albert's gaze and explained with a smile, "Invulnerability Curse!"

"A very practical spell. But..." Albert said softly: "It may not be a good thing for Potter."
