Chapter 1508: A Messy Match
If there was any one of the worst races of the year, Gryffindor would definitely make the cut.
Let's start with the final result, Gryffindor lost to Hufflepuff by a big score, the biggest margin of points in recent years, Harry and McLagan were both admitted to the school hospital, and McLagan was completely kicked out of the team.
On top of that, Elaine is also furious, and McLagan's admission to the hospital is her masterpiece.
It was wrong to use a curse on a classmate, and for this, Professor McGonagall gave her a rare confinement.
This is already a very heavy punishment, you know, she has been very lenient with Elaine before. Elaine's confinement lasted only one day, of course, and Professor McGonagall showed mercy, as she was also choked by McLagan's performance.
Let's talk about the process of the game, the weather is good, there is no wind, white clouds, and sometimes there is a dazzling sun.
Evan and Colin took their seats in the crowd early in the morning, and as previously said, the enthusiasm for the game was high, with Gryffindor and Hufflepuff being the favourites this year, and with just over an hour to go, the crowd was already full.
Many of the students wore Hufflepuff logos to cheer them on, and Gryffindor was a little weaker.
This is a rare scene to see in normal times, generally speaking, in this kind of major confrontation, the Hufflepuff houses follow Gryffindor closely, the two houses have a good relationship, it is a natural alliance, they are not like Slytherin and Gryffindor are always on the opposite side, nor are they neutral like Ravenclaw.
This time, the match between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff naturally put the two houses on opposite sides.
Since Cedric's departure, the Hufflepuff team has never had the opportunity to win a Quidditch Cup like they do now, and the eagerness has led to an astonishing burst of enthusiasm and support for the team.
Needless to say, Slytherin House, which didn't have any good intentions, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and most of them didn't want Gryffindor to be good, so they turned to Hufflepuff House.
There were also a lot of people in Ravenclaw who supported Hufflepuff, presumably thinking that Gryffindor had won too much.
After all, the Quidditch Cup has belonged to Team Gryffindor since the year Wood graduated.
From a rational point of view, this is not a good thing.
Soon, a picture of golden red surrounded by a large area of yellow-black appeared in the audience.
Gryffindor will be under a lot of pressure to defend their title, and this will be the biggest challenge for new captain Harry.
The game began, and to the deafening cheers and boos of the audience, Harry and his team entered the field.
The sun was a little irritating, and he blocked it with his hand, and before he could speak, he heard McLagan say to the team, "What troublesome weather! Listen, you have to fly where the sun doesn't shine in a while, so that the other party can't see your ......."
"I'm the captain, McLagan, don't coach them anymore. Harry said annoyedly, "Go to the goal." ”
"Of course, of course, I'm just kindly reminding me. McLagan muttered.
When he was gone, Harry said to Ginny and Elaine, "Well, remember to fly where the sun doesn't shine." ”
"I don't like that guy, why did you make him a goalkeeper?" asked Ginny in a whisper.
"I hate him too, but we don't have any other choice. Harry replied.
"He's a nuisance, even more annoying than Ron. Elaine commented, grimacing at McLagan, "Seriously, why do you always choose someone like this to be the goalkeeper, why don't you let Evan give it a try?"
"Because Evan said he was afraid of heights, I rarely saw him fly. Harry said, "Actually, Ron is fine. ”
He wanted to say something nice about Ron in front of Elaine, and the relationship between the two of them had been strained since the last time they had an argument.
But to no avail, Elaine left a word that she didn't like Ron's taste, and dragged her broom towards the venue.
Smell?!Was she talking about the smell of smell, or the smell of blood?
Harry didn't have to think too much about it, he had just seen Malfoy sneaking up the castle at the door of the Great Hall, followed by two girls.
This made Harry very concerned, very concerned, if he was going to do something bad again!
With that in mind, he walked over and shook hands with the Hufflepuff captain.
Then, at the whistle of Mrs. Hooch, Harry rose higher than the rest of the team and galloped around the pitch in search of the Snitch. If you catch it sooner, you might have a chance to return to the castle and pick up the map of the living spots to find out what Malfoy was up to......
"Hufflepuff's Smith got the Quaffle!" a dreamy voice echoed over the court, "Of course, he was the one who did the commentary last time. Oh, Ginny Weasley bumped into him, I think maybe it was on purpose, it looked like it. You know, Smith was so bad about Gryffindor last time, and I think he regrets it now......! Look, a Bludger smashed it hard, hit Smith, hit him in the nose, it was Elaine Slytherin who did it, it's so beautiful, she must be taking revenge, Elaine's popularity is also good, it's said that she's still a vampire, I heard ......"
Evan glanced weakly at the commentary table, what person in his right mind would let Luna do the commentary?
A very inexplicable little story, and the long pale blonde hair, and the necklace made of butterbeer stoppers......
Professor McGonagall next to her looked a little uncomfortable, as if she did regret the appointment.
In fact, after Luna began to deviate from the game to tell the legend of vampires, almost everyone glanced at the podium, including the players who were playing, and then they suddenly looked back to where they had been.
"While Ginny and Elaine were concentrating on Smith, the Quaffle was taken by a big man from the Hufflepuffs, well, I don't remember his name, it seems to be Bib, no, it's Baggins......"
"It's Cadwallad!" Professor McGonagall said loudly next to Luna, and the audience burst into laughter.
"yes, Cadwallad, the name is a bit of a twist, but he moves fast and he flies towards the Gryffindor goal. Luna continued, seemingly unaffected by her surroundings, "The ball is in, look, the ball is in, where is the Gryffindor goalkeeper? Didn't he see Cadwallad flying over with the ball?"
Evan sitting down there could explain what McLagan was doing, and he saw the whole thing.
McLagan was busy yelling at Ginny and Elaine for what they did to Smith, but he didn't notice the big red ball flying past his left ear......
