Hogwarts starts with stealing power

"Crookshanks."

Harry bent down, held it in his arms, and gently stroked its furry fur.

"It's really nice to see you so early in the morning. Lin Xia and Hermione may be right about you. You are a very smart cat."

Harry's hand stroking the cat's fur suddenly stopped, "Did you notice that there are a lot of mice or dangerous things here, so you deliberately guard me outside?"

Crookshanks looked at him innocently and rubbed his hand with his face.

Harry came back to his senses, put it back on the ground, and walked with it to the bottom of the spiral staircase.

"Don't guard here, it's a bit dangerous."

Harry came to the common room, and the sound of the blizzard outside became louder.

He knew in his heart that the competition would not be cancelled because of bad weather such as thunderstorms.

Even so, he was still a little worried.

At this time, he suddenly thought of some small wizards with larger bodies.

Seekers are usually light and agile, but in this kind of weather, a larger body weight is an advantage, and they are less likely to be blown around by the wind.

Harry thought, if he could suddenly gain more than ten pounds, that would be great.

It was still early outside, and he sat in front of the fire to kill time, occasionally getting up to stop Crookshanks from sneaking into the boys' dormitory.

He thought Crookshanks was coming for Scabbers, but Scabbers was still useful to them, at least at this time, Crookshanks couldn't catch Scabbers.

But soon, Harry felt that his worries were unnecessary.

After all, Crookshanks and Scabbers had been at odds for so long, and he had never seen Scabbers being bitten by Crookshanks.

At least from this point of view, Scabbers had a set of skills to avoid Crookshanks.

Sitting opposite was a warm fireplace, and his chilly body was warmed by the fireplace.

Harry's tense mind relaxed a little, and suddenly thought of Sirius, Scabbers, and the vague attitudes of the professors.

Harry's heart sank, and he always felt that something was going to happen in this Quidditch match.

After an unknown amount of time, Harry stood up and felt that it was time for breakfast.

So he left the common room and went to the Great Hall.

This time, he was finally not facing Sir Cadogan, and there was no longer a picture frame asking him to duel with him, but a normal Fat Lady.

The Fat Lady had just returned to the common room last night, and today she had adapted well and restored her former elegance and calmness.

It was stormy outside, and the weather was gloomy. A warm fireplace also rose in the Fat Lady's picture frame, and she was still wearing a red coat.

"Good morning, Harry, where are you going so early?"

Harry left the common room and said hello to the Fat Lady. There was no need for a password to leave the common room.

"Hello, Fat Lady. Today is the Quidditch match. I will represent Gryffindor to play against Slytherin."

The Fat Lady raised her eyebrows in surprise. "You are playing against Slytherin today. You must crush their spirits!

Each of the Slytherin frames has bad intentions. They came to laugh at me after learning that I ran away.

If I could get out of the frames, I would tear their frames apart!"

Harry agreed without thinking. He had been annoyed by the arrogant faces of the Slytherin people.

When he arrived at the Great Hall, it was empty. Harry first ate a big bowl of porridge and felt a little more refreshed. Then, while he was eating bread, the other team members finally arrived.

"This is terrible weather! There will definitely be a fierce battle today!" Wood rubbed his face and said.

He hadn't eaten anything yet. His expression was serious and his brows were so tight that they could pinch a fly to death.

"Don't worry, Oliver." Alia comforted him, "We don't care about this drizzle."

George and Fred also came over. They had changed into Quidditch jerseys and put on a pair of glasses.

This is very unusual.

The twins are not nearsighted.

When they got closer, Harry found that George's sleeves seemed to be hiding something, bulging.

Wood couldn't help but say, "Why are you wearing glasses? This is bad weather, even the best glasses may not be able to withstand it."

George said mysteriously, "These are not ordinary glasses. These are glasses blessed with luck. It can allow me to observe some unusual things on the court."

Fred: "Maybe it can bring us luck, so that we can catch the Quaffle more quickly and efficiently."

Alia asked curiously, "Are you sure? Where did your glasses come from?"

The twins said in unison, "Professor Trelawney gave it to us."

Of course, they would not say that they bought it specifically for a gold galleon.

With the income from the magazine "Hogwarts New Style", the twins no longer care about gold galleons when buying things.

Anyway, no matter how much they buy, they can't keep up with the speed of their earnings.

However, they didn't ask the professor for this pair of glasses.

Instead, the professor heard from somewhere that they were Gryffindor players and specially sold them this pair of lucky glasses in a private tutoring class.

The twins bought it half-heartedly.

But it was still the price of one gold galleon, and the twins would only make it more cost-effective for themselves, so they asked the professor to predict a Quidditch match for them.

Trelawney didn't do divination, but gave them their own crystal ball.

Qiao Zhi took out the crystal ball.

The crystal ball looked dirty, and some of the decorative details turned yellow, as if it had been used for decades.

Fred said: "Professor Trelawney is very concerned about the result of our Quidditch match, but she refused to help us with divination.

I suspect that she secretly bet on the result of the game, because there is a personal will, so the divination result will be inaccurate.

She simply gave us the crystal ball she used and let us do the divination ourselves."

Harry said puzzledly: "We also want Gryffindor to win, and we will also exert personal will when divination, so will the divination result be accurate?"

The twins looked at each other, they forgot to think about this problem, and even wanted to bring it over for divination.

George: "It seems that we need to find a little wizard who is not partial to anyone to do divination."

Fred: "Maybe we can find a student from Ravenclaw. This college is not interested in any team and can look at all results fairly."

Wood said impatiently: "Okay, George, Fred, put away your fancy ideas quickly, we have to take the game seriously.

This is not a game, it is about whether we can enter the final. For the honor of Gryffindor, I hope you can take it seriously."

George and Fred were scolded by Wood and had to leave the lucky glasses and crystal ball in the Great Hall.

These things are all crooked ways in Wood's eyes, and wearing them will affect the morale of his own army.

Before leaving, Harry looked back frequently.

"Harry, hurry up, what are you dawdling about?" Alia urged in front.

Harry made a decision and said quickly: "You go to the team lounge first, I left something in the Great Hall, and I will be back soon."

Harry hurried back, first picked up the lucky glasses, put them on and tried them on.

This pair of glasses is no different from the glasses he usually wears. The degree of glasses in the magic world will automatically adjust to perfectly match Harry's degree.

He thought about it and put the glasses in his sleeve.

Then, Harry picked up the crystal ball again.

He didn't know what happened, but as soon as his hand touched the crystal ball, the crystal ball immediately flashed a faint blue light.

Harry was frightened and took a few steps back, carefully checking the changes in the crystal ball.

Suddenly, a series of pictures flashed in his eyes, as if he was in a fierce Quidditch game.

His body had been soaked by the rain, and there were storms, thunder and lightning all around him. The glasses were also blurred by the rain.

Not to mention catching the golden flying ball, even the figures of his teammates could not be seen clearly.

Harry felt that his consciousness was divided into two pieces.

One piece was fighting hard in a harsh environment, and the other piece was a bystander, watching the development around calmly.

Suddenly, a large and blurry black shadow appeared in front of him.

Harry couldn't help but widen his eyes. As he got closer and closer to the crystal ball, the shadow gradually became clearer in front of his eyes.

This is a big black dog!

Suddenly a flash of lightning illuminated the stands, and Harry clearly saw a big black dog with shaggy hair sitting on the top row of empty seats!

Stands!

How could this dog appear in the stands? !

Harry didn't know who the dog was, but his subconscious told him that the dog was related to him and was a very important dog to him.

Harry didn't forget that he had seen this dog several times before, and this dog had also appeared in the death prophecy given to him by Trelawley.

"Will I die in this Quidditch game?"

Harry just had this thought, and as if reflecting his thoughts, the picture in the crystal ball suddenly went black--

Harry saw his figure falling from a high altitude, and then...

Then, there was nothing else.

Harry seemed to wake up from a nightmare, breathing rapidly, and cold sweat on his forehead.

He looked at the crystal ball with a pale face. The crystal ball was just an ordinary crystal ball, as if no picture had ever appeared.

Harry reached out to touch it again, but this time there was no reaction.

He shook the crystal ball a few times, but there was still no reaction.

"So what did I just see? Is it something I will experience in the future?"

Harry muttered to himself.

Knowing that he would be in danger, would he still participate in this Quidditch game?

Harry's mind was confused and he walked out of the Great Hall.

He didn't know what to do. The only thing he knew was that this game could not be cancelled.

Everyone was looking forward to this game, especially Gryffindor and Captain Wood. He was carrying the expectations of many people on his shoulders!

He couldn't withdraw from the game because of something that hadn't happened yet.

Harry hurriedly left the Great Hall. He had something to do with Hermione, Lin Xia Shangliang, and Ron!

Harry didn't know that after he left, a professor also came to the Great Hall.

This professor was Professor Trelawney!

Trelawney's expression at this moment was different from that of the past. She became calmer and more cautious. Her deep eyes seemed full of wisdom and her gaze was somewhat sharp.

Trelawney saw her crystal ball. She gently stroked the crystal ball, and the ball emitted a faint blue light under her hand.

The scenes Harry had seen before reappeared in the crystal ball and came into her eyes.

With a long and unfathomable expression, she slowly spoke to the empty Great Hall:

"The gears of fate have begun to turn. Given the information, what will you choose?

Will you follow the guidance of fate and take the established path, or break out of it and find another way?"

Suddenly, Dumbledore appeared in front of Trelawney, looked at her carefully, and said in a deep voice: "You shouldn't interfere."

Trelawney smiled casually: "I'm just doing an interesting little experiment to test whether the destined person you chose is as firm as you expected."

Dumbledore said seriously: "Trelawney, choosing Harry is the result of our joint discussion.

Now it's the third year, even if it's not Harry, we can't change the candidate."

"Why not?" Trelawney asked back with interest: "I think my two disciples are pretty good."

Dumbledore warned her seriously: "Don't do unnecessary things!"

-

Harry came to the lounge of the Gryffindor stadium, and Wood discussed many tactics on the spot.

The twins were a little sleepy listening to them, complaining here and there.

George: "Since last week, he has been talking about those tactics over and over again, and I can recite them by heart."

Fred: "After all, Wood is very uneasy. If we lose this game, we will lose 100 points. If Slytherin can win the next game against Ravenclaw, we can enter the finals in advance."

George: "But instead of preaching, it is better to let us take a rest and be more positive. Maybe the game will go smoothly."

Fred: "Oh, George, I agree with you very much!"

The twins sang in unison, completely ignoring Captain Wood's increasingly ugly expression.

Wood wanted to say something, but seeing that it was getting late, he finally waved his hand and asked them to do the final arrangement.

It was also at this time that Harry had time to sneak out to find Hermione and the others.

"Hermione, Lin Xia, Ron, Draco!"

This game was between Gryffindor and Slaterby, and the little wizards chose the venue to sit down in the team they were optimistic about.

Lin Xia heard a burst of tiny sounds passing through her ears, which was completely different from the surrounding noise.

She turned her head and found that Harry had appeared at the edge of the platform without knowing when, and hesitated whether to come over.

Lin Xia immediately touched Hermione and others and took the initiative to go out to find Harry.

It was too crowded here, and Harry had better not come over, otherwise once he was discovered to be here, he would be surrounded by enthusiastic little wizards.
