The race was held on Saturday, and what was different from last time was that this time it was a rare sunny day. The most important thing is that no dementors come to cause trouble.
The Shearwater match naturally ended with Slytherin's victory, but obviously Ravenclaw's strength has improved this year, and Slytherin narrowly won in the end.
But it was already a good thing for Slytherin, this time the first place in Quidditch still fell into their hands.
On the playing field, Noah once again met Principal Dumbledore. It must be said that this great wizard still has the grace of his youth even though he is old.
All in all, he looks quite similar to when he was young. The fifth-grade wizards became even more nervous because they had to take the L. exam in half a year, so there were obviously fewer fifth-grade wizards in the school. Not only did they have to study by themselves, but the professors also wanted to let them pass the exam. The large amount of homework left behind was so large that even Noah had to spend most of his time in the library.
The good news is that Professor Snape seemed to know that he needed more study time and took the initiative to reduce his burden, but the potion still made Noah endure.
Noah: "..." In February, there will be a Quidditch match between Gryffindor and Ravenclaw. On the morning of the day of the Shearwater competition, Porter took out a Firebolt broomstick, which caused a sensation in the entire academy. This broomstick was said to be the fastest model of broomstick in the world, but because of its high price, few people got it.
Now at Hogwarts, a third-year wizard has a Firebolt in his hands. This made all the little wizards excited. Even the Gryffindor Quidditch captain showed the broom in the auditorium after asking for Harry's permission, but in a solemn manner no one was allowed to move it. , and the little wizard was not even allowed to move.
Even because of this Firebolt, private gambling became even bigger this year, with more people choosing victory over Gryffindor, as if this broom was a foregone treasure.
"This is unfair." Warrington complained from the side.
"Why is there a Firebolt? That's no different from cheating, right?" Eve chewed her breakfast bag expressionlessly, and then slowly said after a long time: "Let Malfoy buy one next year." Anyway, he has always been known for his money. In the Malfoy family, if the young master is willing, he can still get it by acting coquettishly.
Warrington paused slightly and turned to the other end of the long table. Not surprisingly, the young master had an extremely ugly expression. He looked at the Firebolt as if he wanted to burn it immediately.
Well, you might see Slytherin's Firebolt every year. Although he thought so, in fact, the young master's mobility was stronger than anyone thought. He actually disguised himself as a dementor with his two followers during the game, just to scare him. Leigh cost him the game.
But he obviously failed. Not only was Harry not frightened, but he used the God-calling Guard in full view of the public. Although it was not a complete God-calling Guard, it also shocked the three of them.
The result of the game was still that Gryffindor won. Draco and the others were severely scolded by Professor McGonagall, and Slytherin was deducted fifty points.
Now the other Slytherins looked at Draco with unkind expressions. It's a joke, but it's not okay if the academy deducts points for cheating, especially when fifty points are deducted all at once!
If he doesn't earn back this point twice, even if he is Malfoy, he will be left out in the cold. So after the game, Malfoy became much more at ease, with an ugly expression on his face, probably realizing his situation.
But just because Malfoy was calm, it didn't mean that everything would be safe tonight. The Slytherins learned one thing the next day. Sirius appeared in the Gryffindor lounge last night, or to be precise, at Ron Weasley's bedside. It was said that he was holding a The knife even pierced the bed curtain, intending to kill Ron.
But after a night of searching, Professor McGonagall failed to catch the criminal, and he still escaped in a way they didn't know.
The atmosphere at Shearwater School became tense once again. Administrator Filch began to check every corner of the school, and Professor Flitwick began to teach the school's statue identification with a portrait of Sirius, and the school even hired some troll security guards.
The group of barely intelligent guys wandered around the Gryffindor corridors, shouting incomprehensible sounds from time to time and gesturing at the size of the sticks in their hands.
It is said that these security guards were arranged to protect the Fat Lady. Yes, it was that portrait. The guy who replaced the Fat Lady's portrait was dismissed because he opened the door for Sirius.
It is said that Sirius picked up the note written with the password that Longbottom lost, and the portrait still opened the door to him even though he recognized that the other party's identity was different, which is also amazing.
This incident naturally became a new joke for Slytherin. They knew that Sirius was here for Potter, and obviously the other party's purpose was not just Potter.
Ron was completely famous in the school because he survived Sirius, and many people would ask him about that night. This Gryffindor probably regarded this as a kind of meritorious service, and told him vividly Everyone who asked recounted their experience of that night.
Even Slytherins were forced to listen to a lot of stuff that was of no interest at all. Coupled with Malfoy settling down and starting to earn points, the Potter trio suddenly became a presence that Slytherin could not avoid.
Noah didn't have time to care about this. A lot of homework took up most of his time. Even when he saw Eve, the communication between the two was limited to study. Even Eve's courses were more important than his because she took electives. The Muggle-related lessons occupied too much of her mind.
It's not that Cornelius never tried to help, but he soon realized that the Muggles in the wizard's eyes were different from the Muggles in his eyes. The answers he knew were not necessarily the answers to the exam, so he could only give up for the time being.
At this time, I can only sigh
"The world is big". But there's another reason why Eve is busier than him, and that's Quidditch. After Easter is the Quidditch final, with Slytherin competing against Gryffindor.
The Firebolt put a lot of pressure on Slytherin, especially after a quarrel broke out within the Slytherin team.
To put it simply, Eve and Draco compete for the position of Seeker. Draco urged him to serve as Seeker in order to teach Harry a tough lesson.
But this was dismissed by Eve, who even bluntly said that Draco was a fool and would only do bad things in the game.
But this year there are three people on Eve's side of the team, and the Quidditch captain also gave the position to Eve after careful consideration.
Draco the shearwater was angry about this.
