Chapter 58: Meditations on the Quidditch Pitch
"Ahh The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info finally failed, and the addition of the four managers finally defeated the powerful doomsday wizard completely.
It was time for breakfast, and Xie An, who had woken up from the terrible nightmare of endless battle, was extremely tired, and Xie An wanted to fall to sleep on the ground immediately. However, the boy persevered out of the tower, and found that Hogwarts was still asleep in the morning, and the hallway was still empty.
"It's been a long night, isn't it?" said Ser Dracula, as he noticed Andrew coming out of the tower.
Xie An, who felt like he was falling apart, didn't even have the strength to answer the sir's greeting, and staggered down the stairs with his hands on the wall. Finally, I returned to my dormitory, collapsed on the bed and fell asleep.
When Xie An woke up again, he didn't know how long it had been. The strange thing is that Xie An felt that his body was no longer in pain at this time, and the magic power in his body had a feeling of expansion, only his head was still as uncomfortable as a pinprick.
Feeling dizzy, he got up from the bed strongly, and found that the other three roommates in the dormitory were looking at him worriedly, Xie An's heart couldn't help but tighten.
"Andrew, you finally woke up, when we went to class this morning, we found that you didn't come, you were still sleeping when you got back to the dormitory, we didn't wake you up, we thought you were sick. Michael saw Shay Ann get up from the bed, happily came to his bedside, and said excitedly.
"Oh, how long have I been asleep?" Xie An, who found out that he had only slept for a day, secretly breathed a sigh of relief and asked pretending to be puzzled.
"Madam Pomfrey came to see her all day, and she said you're just too tired, just rest for a while. Michael said to Shay.
"Maybe I've been studying in the library for too long these days, and yesterday I dreamed of reading books for exams. Xie An made things up indiscriminately, trying to concentrate and try to make his head feel better.
"Well, that's good, you must pay attention to your body, since you are awake, we are relieved, Professor Flitwick is still worried about your health, how are you feeling now, do you want to go to the school hospital?" asked Michael with concern.
"No, I'm hungry right now, and I think a cup of hot chocolate is enough to cure all my ailments. The teenager who was exerting violently felt that every cell in his body was constantly shouting that he was so hungry.
"Haha, that's great, it's dinner time, let's go eat together!"
After making sure that there seemed to be nothing wrong with their roommates, the three young Ravenclaw classmates didn't care about greeting Xie Anduo, and hurried out of the dormitory, ready to go to the cafeteria to eat. Xie An, who walked at the end, checked his wand and Mok bag, and after finding that they were all intact, he further confirmed that he had been dreaming all night, and left the dormitory with a wry smile. When he arrived at the common room, Xie An greeted Luna who was sitting on the sofa at the door: "Luna, didn't you go to dinner?"
Finding that the person she had been worried about all day appeared in front of her, Luna went up and hugged the boy in surprise.
"Andrew, what's wrong with you today, I heard you're sick, how are you feeling now?" Luna asked seriously.
"It's okay, I'm just too tired from studying, I took a break in the dormitory, you see, I'm not fine now. Andrew, who calmly accepted the girl's affectionate hug, was slightly moved in his heart.
"It's really worrying to death, Qiu also asked you several times today, don't do this next time, make yourself too tired, it's worrying. Luna said with rare gentleness.
"Well, I know, now I want to go and have some dinner, how about it, do you want to go with us?" Xie An broke free from the girl's embrace and whispered to her.
"Of course, Autumn should also be out of class, let's go to dinner together!"
After a day of rebirth, Xie An still went back and forth between the library and the classroom every day, without the slightest intention of giving up studying and resting for a while. Qiu, who is very dissatisfied with her boyfriend's excessive diligence and has caused her to be sick, stays with her boyfriend whenever she has time, persuading him not to work so hard, his grades are enough to pass any exam and qualify for graduation, and he is only a second-year freshman now.
Xie An, who was reluctant to tell the real reason, had to treat his lovely girlfriend with a wry smile without saying a word. After a period of time, until the weather turned cold, Xie An struggled to digest the gains of that night's battle, while trying to make up for his lack of understanding of the wizarding world.
"Andrew, you must come to this afternoon's Quidditch match, and don't bring those books of yours!
"Well, I'll go. After discovering that the method of turning a blind eye and hearing is no longer working, and his girlfriend has had enough of his crazy efforts, Andrew has no choice but to agree to Qiu's request.
In the afternoon, after entering the Quidditch field that he had been familiar with in his dreams, Xie ran to a seat with the best view at a speed that made the other guests jaw-dropping, and stared wide at the players of the Ravenclaw Quidditch team who were preparing for the match on the middle court.
The girl who warmed up in the air on a broomstick found the long-awaited figure at the highest point of the stands, and waved her hand happily at Xie An, who also hurriedly stood up and tried to wave the small blue flag in her hand, which kept changing the slogan of Ravenclaw's victory.
Shayne was in too high a position, and there was some emptiness around him, and after the game began, Hermione came to Shayan's side from the front row. Looking at Andrew, who was watching the game intently, Hermione asked curiously, "Andrew, when did you like Quidditch, I remember you never liked this sport before." ”
Shea, who was full of simulating how to fight on the field, snake man guards, frogman sacrifices, and convective storms constantly flying around in front of him, was not watching Quidditch as Hermione saw, Xie An shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "I suddenly feel that Quidditch is indeed a very attractive sport, especially the feeling of being able to fly freely, which is really good." ”
Thinking about the frogman sacrifice swimming in the air, and then thinking that even if he transformed into an Animagus form, he could only rely on his speed to walk slightly in the air, Xie An knew very well how valuable it was to be able to fly.
The young man who benefited a lot from this dream has already understood that magical ability is an incomparably precious gift, and if he can master this skill and ability in depth, the power that can burst out in the future is not inferior to his hidden doomsday power. The young man who had made up his mind not to use the power of the end of the world was already considering whether to stop cultivating the power of the end at this time.
looked at Andrew with an intoxicated expression suspiciously, followed the young man's gaze, and found that the young man was staring at his heroic and charming girlfriend, and then remembered the strange conversation of his roommate in the dormitory last night, Hermione suddenly blushed and asked, "You can't be talking about autumn, aren't you..."
Listening to Hermione's strange tone, Xie An, who didn't think about it at all, looked at Hermione and asked strangely, "What, what's wrong with Qiu?"
"No, nothing, I don't think you're going to be like that. Andrew, sometimes I think you're so weird, you know, they all call me a nerd, and I'm studying and reading every day. But what about you, Andrew, you've worked harder than I have been for a while, and you're even tired and sick, but people don't seem to have any strange opinions about you, and I'm really curious. Hermione, who has always been subconsciously alienated by ordinary classmates as "someone else's child", couldn't help but ask the biggest doubt in her heart.
Xie An, who was still paying attention to the Quidditch field, said without looking back: "Because you don't have a boyfriend!"
"But I'm only in the second grade, and I'm in love at this time, don't you think it's too early?" Hermione said angrily.
"Of course, it was too early, so I fell in love with the senior students. Xie An said nonsense.
"Andrew, what nonsense are you talking about, it's not right for you to be so yourself. Hermione, who heard that Andrew didn't take his heavy heart seriously at all, said even more angrily.
Hearing the real anger and sadness in Hermione's trembling voice, Xie An, who understood what the seemingly extremely strong girl had been longing for, turned to Hermione again, looked at Hermione's chestnut eyes and said seriously: "Hermione, just as you actually don't think about my early love in your heart, many people think it's cool to fall in love with a senior sister. So what I want to tell you is: even if you are considered a freak by others, as long as you are happy. You've got me, you've got Luna, you've got Potter, we've all been your best friends, we've never felt like you're a freak, and we understand that you're behind any decision you make. The world is full of uncertainty and beauty, and if you waste all your time respecting and adapting to what others think of you, then you are doomed to achieve nothing. “
Seeing her reflection in the young man's clear eyes, listening to the young man's solemn and serious words, Hermione suddenly felt that she might really be thinking too much.
The two looked at Hermione, who was silent for a while, and tried to hold back the tears in her eyes, and said softly: "Andy, you are really too bad, and I am a little moved to say such a thing at once." “
"Haha, Hermione, one day we will fly together under the blue sky, and it will never be too late to be moved. Xie An laughed nonchalantly.
After trying to calm her warm and touching mood, Hermione remembered the purpose of her coming, and hurriedly said to Andrew, "By the way, Andrew, I have something I want to tell you. ”
Glancing at the girl gently, Xie An asked, "What's the matter?"
"Isn't it strange that Ginny hasn't asked me for anything since I took Ginny's notebook away that day?" asked Hermione earnestly.
Maybe Ginny just didn't know what to do, so she chose to forget about it, as children do, and they are used to treating things that they can't handle as if they don't exist. Xie An, who is not much older than Ginny, said maturely.
"No, it's not that simple, I've been watching Ginny all this time, and I see that she seems to have completely forgotten what happened before, and she doesn't even remember the notebook, and I mentioned it to her about that day, and she herself wondered why she fainted. I asked about the notebook, and Ginny didn't seem to remember ever owning a black notebook. Hermione said.
Xie An frowned, thought for a moment before saying, "Do you suspect that Ginny's memory has been modified?"
Hermione tried to make her look less nervous, and said seriously, "Ginny completely forgot about the notebook, and I suspect someone has tampered with Ginny's memory." There was a terrible plan, but it failed, and Ginny fled with her notebook, eventually fainting in the library. By the time Ginny woke up, she had forgotten who had attacked her, and her memories of the notebook were gone. ”
"Someone tried to snatch Ginny's notebook and make her forget about it, but unfortunately the plan went awry, and the notebook didn't get it, but Ginny's memory has been modified, is that what it means?" Xie An concluded.
"Yes, Andrew, if that notebook is really that person's diary, there must be a lot of people who want to get it!" Hermione said worriedly, and couldn't help but look at the protrusion under Shayne's wizard's robe, at this time, the terrifying demagogic Dark Lord's diary was lying quietly in the Mork bag that Andrew carried with him.
Xie An frowned, after coming out of the candidate space, it was like a different world, so that Xie An couldn't notice the previous things for a while, and at this time, Hermione's reminder reminded the boy that he still had a big trouble to solve.
"Is there a clue? Who do you suspect?" Xie An asked directly.
"It's hard to say, we know so little that we don't even know how Ginny got this book, and if it's all guesswork, we can only tell that the Slytherin people did it. Hermione replied in frustration.
"Although the Slytherin people are very ambitious and have some good abilities, they can't be directly assumed that they did it because they have the greatest suspicion. Maybe you can try it from the origin of the notebook, I remember we had seen this notebook before, and on the day we went to Diagon Alley to buy a book, Ginny seemed to want to return the notebook to the owner of the bookstore, but the owner gave it to Ginny. Xie An said as he recalled.
"Shopkeeper, you mean the bookstorekeeper gave this horrible journal to Ginny?" Hermione asked in surprise.
"No, it's not certain yet, but the bookstore owner is also suspicious, isn't it? By the way, it seems that the twins have been with their sister all the time that day, so why don't you ask the twins directly." ”
"Yes, I'll ask them tonight when I have a chance, after all, Ginny is their sister. Hermione replied as she looked down.
The two discussed several more possibilities, and there was a cheer in the stands, as the Weasley twins had made a nice cover with Bludgers, and Gryffindor's chaser Angelina had poured the Quaffle into Ravenclaw's goal.
