The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

Chapter 460 Percy is in danger! (2-in-1)

Harry saw someone special in the Ravenclaw team opposite. She is special because she is the only girl on the Ravenclaw team, and also because she is really beautiful.

That person is Ravenclaw's Seeker Qiu Zhang. Harry himself couldn't explain why he noticed her. Maybe it was instinct? Just like people are sure to be attracted to flowers among green leaves. Qiuzhang is stunningly beautiful. Standing in the Ravenclaw ranks is like a flower among the green leaves.

She was a head shorter than Harry, with slender eyebrows and a pointed but not sharp face. Her shiny black hair was tied up and tied behind her head, and paired with a dark blue team uniform, she looked even more heroic.

Harry's eyes collided with Qiu Zhang's eyes inadvertently. Qiu Zhang smiled at him. Harry felt his stomach twitching strangely. Unexpectedly, he thought he was overly nervous.

At this time, Tom and Hermione also found a seat in the stands. I watched quietly as the students filled up the court little by little, forming four squares with distinct colors.

Tom noticed that Percy's girlfriend was sitting directly in front of him, holding a sign in her hand with the words "Come on Qiu Zhang" and a line of small words next to it, which seemed to be added after: "Tear Break them into pieces”.

Tom felt that the drama after the game might be even more exciting than the game.

Ms. Huo Qi motioned for the captains of the two teams to shake hands, and then she took out her whistle: "Get on the broom and listen to my whistle...3——2——1——"

Fourteen broomsticks flew into the sky at the same time. Two broomsticks were faster than the others and soared higher. Harry and Qiu Zhang occupied the top floor of the stadium together, hovering in the sky, trying hard to find the Snitch.

At the same time as the game started, the commentary also began, and the commentator was Lee Jordan, a friend of the Weasley twins.

"Mrs. Hooch's whistle blew, and the game began - this game can be said to be highly anticipated, because the seekers on both sides are equipped with the most advanced broomsticks and firebolts in the magic world. "The Encyclopedia of Flying Broomsticks" says that firebolts Crossbow is the broom of choice in this year's World Cup - it can be seen from the speed of the seekers on both sides that the performance of this broom is extraordinary. Their speed is obviously faster than other people's brooms, and their reaction time is It’s also shorter…”

Lee Jordan originally wanted to talk more about the Firebolt, but when he saw Professor McGonagall's gaze, he felt that he should talk about something related to the game, so he cleverly began to introduce the status of the seekers on both sides.

Introducing the seekers on both sides, should we talk about their broomsticks? So Lee Jordan successfully circled back, essentially still talking about Firebolts.

It's not his fault, no one can resist the temptation of Firebolt.

After listening to Jordan say a few words, Professor McGonagall frowned and saw through Jordan's little trick. So she cleared her throat.

"The reason they both turn so nimbly is that there's a built-in automatic braking device inside the Firebolt - Gryffindor has the ball! Chaser Katie Bell prepares to throw - and it's cut off! Alas... eh! Well done! Beautiful! Fred's Bludger interference was very timely——"

Harry passed over Katie, and Cho Chang fell tightly behind him, constantly passing in front of him, interfering with his flight.

Harry accelerated hard, but Qiu Zhang also accelerated, and he couldn't get rid of this candy.

At this time, Richie made a wonderful save and saved Aria's throw. There was a burst of exclamations from the Ravenclaw court. Before they could breathe out the relief, Katie He grabbed the Quaffle that flew out and made a successful follow-up shot.

Gryffindor leads 10-0.

At this time, Harry saw the Snitch lingering near a fence near the ground, so he dived down immediately, followed closely by Qiu Zhang, and their figures almost overlapped.

Harry kept accelerating, bringing his diving speed close to the limit of his body - diving was his best sport, but unexpectedly, Qiu Zhang kept up with his speed and was not inferior to him.

At this time, the Bludger flew in front of Ravenclaw's batter Feroze. Looking at the two people rushing down quickly, a stern look flashed in his eyes: Now the three of them are in a line with one ball. Above, in front of him is the Bludger, below are Cho Chang and Harry, with Cho Chang blocking Harry tightly.

He decided to take a gamble. So he used all his strength to whip the Bludger towards his teammate.

Qiu Zhang heard a strong wind and subconsciously dodged to the side, narrowly dodging the volley from her teammate. She was hit by the ball within half an inch. When the ball passed her ear The wind brought by it echoed in her ears, causing waves of tinnitus.

Harry behind her was in a terrible situation. If Qiu Zhang had half a second to dodge, Harry didn't even have 0.1 second. He had no time to react before he was hit on the shoulder by the Bludger. , if the ball had taken another inch, Harry would have been in the infirmary.

Although it hit the shoulder, the ball still knocked Harry off balance, causing him to roll and fall to the ground. Luckily for him, he was less than ten feet off the ground when he hit the ball, so it didn't cause much damage.

"Timeout!" Wood, who witnessed the whole process from the air, roared at the top of his lungs. There was a cry of exclamation in the Gryffindor stands. The little wizards all stood up and stretched their necks to see what was going on in the field.

However, Mrs. Huo Qi did not blow the timeout whistle immediately. Instead, she first confirmed Qiu Zhang's status. After confirming that Qiu Zhang had lost the snitch's vision, she allowed the game to be suspended.

Madam Pomfrey quickly ran to Harry with a medicine box and gave him a simple diagnosis. She found that Harry was fine, with only some scratches and other minor problems.

"Are you sure you want to continue the game?" She asked Harry in a routine manner after giving Harry a brief treatment.

"Of course!" Harry shook the dirt off his body and tried hard to climb onto his Firebolt. Although Madam Pomfrey applied medicine to him, he still felt extremely sore all over his body.

He looked up and saw a pair of black eyes with a look of concern.

Qiu Zhang is looking at him.

"Are you okay?" After Harry flew up, she took the initiative to greet him.

Harry felt as if his heart had been pinched, but at the same time the stinging pain in his shoulders disappeared.

"Ah, I'm fine... You should focus on finding the Snitch..." Along with the tingling pain, the reason in Harry's mind disappeared. He spoke almost instinctively.

"You won't miss this minute." Qiu Zhang smiled, turned aside the broom and flew upward.

Harry was stunned by this smile, but Wood's roar brought him back to reality.

"Harry, now is not the time to be a nymphomaniac! If you need to wake up, I can give you a basin of cold water!" Wood was not joking, he was really going to give Harry a shot of "clear water like a spring". He is calm and collected.

Harry emptied the messy emotions in his mind and rose twenty feet above the stadium. He noticed that Qiu Zhang had been following him. He seemed to have given up on looking for the snitch and was only bothering Harry. He followed him and waited for him. Find the snitch and pick up the leak again.

Very good, Harry thought in his mind, if Cho Chang chooses to follow him, she will have no chance of winning, because she will lose the first-mover advantage...

Harry's injury and the suspension of the game disrupted Gryffindor's offensive and gave Ravenclaw time to adjust. After the game restarted, Ravenclaw swept away the decline and played back and forth with Gryffindor.

After Harry pushed Cho Chang out of his mind, something else came back unexpectedly: pain. The spot on his shoulder where the Bludger had struck him started to flare again, making Harry wonder if his bones had been shattered.

Wood's voice just now was loud enough that the little wizards in the nearby stands could hear it clearly. Many people burst out laughing. But not everyone could laugh. Percy in the Gryffindor stands felt as if he had a heart attack and was about to get sick in the next second.

Tom looked at this scene and couldn't help but mourn for two seconds for Gryffindor. He felt that victory was gradually moving away from Gryffindor.

The game proceeds in an orderly manner between the two teams' offense and defense. The situation was at a stalemate, and the score between the two teams was very tight - Gryffindor had a slight advantage, but the score difference was always controlled within 20 points.

"Try harder, Ravenclaw will be unable to withstand it!" Wood clapped his hands hard to encourage his teammates.

"Gryffindor is nothing more than that!" Richie threw the Quaffle in his hand and signaled his teammates to attack again.

Wow!

Suddenly, there was a commotion from the sidelines. Tom looked towards the source of the sound and saw three tall, dark, hooded figures standing on the edge of the Slytherin stands.

Tom was stunned for a moment: He remembered that he had removed all the dementors, why were there still dementors here? And the atmosphere doesn't look like there are dementors...

Seeing the decorations of Slytherin House next to the dementors, Tom became convinced that these three dementors were probably impersonated.

He directly pulled out his wand and used a blasting spell in the direction of the "dementors".

"Thunderbolt explosion!"

A puff of smoke rose up from the stands of Slytherin House, and a large gap was opened in the stands under the feet of the "Dementors", and the three "Dementors" fell directly.

Suddenly, there was chaos.

The noise in the stands distracted Harry. He subconsciously turned his head to look, but he only saw a cloud of smoke and busy Slytherin students.

At this time, Qiu Zhang moved. She did not choose to show off, but has been carefully searching for traces of the snitch. And her efforts paid off.

She saw the Snitch gleaming over the Gryffindor side of the pitch.

She swooped down quickly, and Harry noticed Qiu Zhang's strange movement and followed her without thinking, but he was half a beat too late after all. Fortunately, he had a slight positional advantage, so he was not thrown away. Only a little behind Qiu Zhang.

Harry tried to speed up and stretched his arms forward, but to no avail. The foot ahead of Qiu Zhang was like a chasm, lying between the two of them. Harry could feel the excruciating pain in his shoulder...

Finally, he heard Mrs. Hooch's whistle, and there was nothing in his hands. Harry knew it was over.

He landed on the court like a reflex, watching the Ravenclaw players wildly celebrating their victory. Wood fell next to him, crestfallen. He knew in his heart that Gryffindor had no chance of winning the Quidditch trophy.

Harry watched as the Ravenclaw players hugged Cho Chang tightly and were surrounded by Ravenclaw supporters. He could also see Professor McGonagall standing by the Slytherin stands with an angry look on her face. superior. Next to her were Malfoy, Crabbe, Goyle and Marcus, the captain of the Slytherin team. They were the "dementors" who had just appeared on the edge of the stands.

"Despicable coward, shameful trick! Each of you will be punished with solitary confinement, and Slytherin will be deducted fifty points!" Professor McGonagall shouted angrily, as if she wanted to vent all her resentment for losing the game here.

The entire Quidditch pitch was buzzing with activity, and it seemed like everyone had something to do.

In the Gryffindor stands, Percy sat there blankly, his face full of disbelief. He never imagined that the Gryffindor team would actually lose to Ravenclaw, and he and Penello were fighting. It’s a bet!

Percy panicked, and he suddenly realized that he didn't have ten galleons. At this time, when he looked up, he saw Penelo standing opposite him with a smile.

"Ah...Penello, um...congratulations..." Percy panicked.

Penello looked at Percy with a smile, his eyes narrowed.

"Okay, I-" Percy was about to say something, but Penello raised his hand to stop him.

"Come to watch the World Cup with me during the summer vacation, and I will pretend nothing happened." Penello put his hands on the back of the chair and blinked.

"Okay, no problem!" Percy felt like he was walking on the edge of the cliff, and now everything Penello said was right.

He grabbed Penello's hand and followed the crowd out of the stadium and back to the castle.

Tom was no exception and he returned to the common room with his fellow Ravenclaws. The atmosphere here gave the illusion that Ravenclaw had won the Quidditch Cup. Captain Rich even brought out a box of Butterbeer and Honeydukes candies that he bought at some point for everyone to celebrate.

Tom:? ? ?

"A qualified captain must be fully prepared!" Richie couldn't help laughing when he saw Tom's confused look, and thrust a bottle of butterbeer into his hand. "Does anyone know the freezing spell? Help me freeze it. Have a drink!"

Tom shook his head. He didn't expect Captain Rich to dare to set up such a flag before the game. He pushed aside the crowd and ran to the beer box to give everyone cold beer.

It was only after he had turned all the butterbeer ice cold that he noticed that Hermione was not participating in this grand celebration - at this time, she was actually sitting in the corner, immersed in reading a tome.

"Oh my god," Tom ran over, "At least change the place. What's the difference between reading a book like this and reading in a movie theater? Come on, let's go to the library. It's too noisy here-"

He didn't wait for Hermione to answer, picked up Hermione and walked out of the lounge.
