Chapter 5: The Quidditch Final
"Well, without further ado, allow me to introduce - the mascot of the Bulgarian national team!"
To the right of the stands was a neat bright red phalanx, which erupted into loud cheers at the moment.
I saw that a hundred Meiwa had already slid towards the arena, why their skin was as bright as the moon, why their hair was fluttering behind their heads without wind - at this moment, the music started, and Meiwa began to dance, and the people around were obviously almost dizzy, and many of the little wizards' movements looked like they were about to jump.
"It's the same trick every time. Mr. Bobin said lazily.
"But it definitely works, right? Phoenix turned his face to look around him, where Harry was standing with one leg perched against the wall of the box. Next to him, Ron made a gesture that seemed to be about to dive off the springboard, and stayed there motionless—
"Philip, Friedhelm, you two fools. The second half of the sentence drowned in the gymnasium, filled with angry roars. People don't want to leave.
None of the adult wizards in the box were affected in the slightest.
"Fools are always in the majority, aren't they?" Daphne carefully controlled the volume, her words only heard by Phoenix.
"Liking beautiful women is a common problem for men. Daphne rarely spoke to him at school, and Phoenix didn't understand where she standed.
"Is that you, too?" she said with a hint of sarcasm.
"What do you think?" both looked at the Irish mascot, but their minds were not there. The Irish leprechaun sprinkled a large amount of gold coins, like a rain of gold coins, and people cheered and scrambled, or burrowed under their seats to pick up the coins.
Without waiting for her to answer, Phoenix continued, "You must be miserable now, you want to be free, but you are at the mercy of your family and approach me. I know you're not interested in me, but seriously, am I that annoying to you?"
"I'm just- forget it, let's watch the game. Daphne secretly distressed, indeed she had no choice, her family wanted to participate in the next war, they saw the benefits of participating in the war, and the Malfoys had grown in wealth and status after joining the Death Eaters. But did they see the risk of doing so? Maybe it was because they saw it that they had to marry themselves to him anyway.
Daphne glanced at Phoenix wryly. The roots of the Peverell family are far away, and if necessary, Phoenix can get out of the country, and by the way, it is also a good place for his wife to escape.
The world-class Quidditch level is indeed extremely high, and the chasers keep passing the Quaffle to the other players so fast that Bagman only has time to say their names. Ireland scored three goals in the space of ten minutes to make it 30-0, prompting a flood of cheers and cheers from green-clad supporters.
"Dimitrov, Lefsky, Dimitrov, Ivanova - oh my God!" Bagman said in a loud voice.
The 100,000 wizards held their breath as they watched as the two seekers, Krum and Linzi, descended rapidly among the pursuers, as if they had jumped out of the plane without a parachute. Phoenix follows their fall through the panoramic telescope, squinting his eyes for the Golden Snitch -
"Is this the trick you used to play Potter?" exclaimed Daphne, who was next to Phoenix.
"Yes, you know Quidditch too?" he asked, a silly question.
"It's people, and they all love Quidditch. Daphne glared at him.
At the last second, Krum stopped diving, re-ascended, and flew away in circles. And Lin Qi fell heavily to the ground, and the thud could be heard by the entire gymnasium. There was a lamentation from the seats of the Irish audience.
"Muggles don't understand. He retorted.
"That's because they're not individuals. Daphne whispered back contemptuously, and Phoenix looked helpless.
"The game is suspended," Mr. Bagman yelled, "and the trained field doctor rushed to the field to check on Aidan Linzi's injuries. ”
"I heard you used it in the Quidditch final at school?" asked Mr. Bobin with interest, "how about that Potter?"
"yes, he's pretty good at dark magic," Phoenix knew he cared about the latter, and certainly not how well Harry flew. "Last semester, he conjured up a physical patronus - well, probably a few months of studying. ”
"Ah, it seems that his title of savior star has a bit of strength. Mr. Bobin looked at Weasley in surprise, "How are you doing with him?"
"It's ok. ”
"That's good, more friends than more enemies. Mr. Bobin patted him on the shoulder twice in encouragement. Now it seems that he is his son-in-law again.
Finally, Lin Qi stood up. Amid the loud cheers of his green-clad supporters, he mounted his firebolt and slammed his foot into the air. His recovery seems to have given the Irish team new confidence. When Mustafa blew his whistle again, the chasers quickly organized their attack, and their skill and coordination were so brilliant that Phoenix had never seen before. Although he hadn't seen a few Quidditch matches.
The Bulgarian team began to become unscrupulous, especially ****kov and Vokanov, who didn't care whether the stick in their hands hit the ball or the person, and just swung wildly and desperately. Dimitrov lunged straight at Moran, who was holding the Quaffle, knocking her off the broomstick.
The mascots of the two teams began to attack each other, and officials from the ministry rushed into the arena to try to separate Meiwa from the leprechaun, but to little avail. The arena was filled with the screams of the boys, the crackling of the wands of the ministry officials, and the angry roars of the Bulgarians.
Ireland's batsman Quigley used his suffocating strength to smash a flying Bludger at Klum, who couldn't dodge and was hit head-on by the Bludger.
There were deafening complaints from the auditorium. Krum's nose seemed to be broken, and blood was flowing everywhere, but Hassan Mustafa didn't blow the whistle. He lost his attention, and there was no way to blame him, and a baby threw a fire at him, lighting the tail of his broomstick.
"Pause! Hurry up—" shouted the supporters of the Bulgarian team in the box.
Seeing Ireland's Seeker suddenly dive downward, Phoenix was sure that this was not a fake by Lonsky, this time it was true.
Phoenix quickly glanced at the scoreboard, Bulgaria: 10, Ireland: 170.
"Ireland won. ”
"Hey, that's terrible. Mr. Bobin followed Krum closely, and he followed. Blood splashed in the air behind him, but he had already caught up with Lin Qi, parallel to him, and the two of them swooped down to the ground again-
Lin Qi fell heavily to the ground for the second time, and a group of angry Meiwa immediately swarmed around him.
"Where's the Golden Snitch, where is the Golden Snitch?" shouted Philip, who was sitting there.
"He's caught—Krum chose—it's over!" Melinda shouted.
Krum's bright red robe glistened with speckled nosebleeds. He rose lightly into the air, fist raised high, and a golden light appeared between his fingers.
The scoreboard flashed with the scoreline, Bulgaria: 160, Ireland: 170, and the audience didn't seem to realize what was going on. Then, slowly, like a giant jet speeding up, the Irish supporters grew louder and louder, and finally erupted into a myriad of shouts of joy.
