Chapter 41: The Ownership of the Academy Cup (Part I)

When he heard that he was going to attend the College Cup Awards Celebration Dinner at the end of the school year, Lin Xiaoan refused.

Lin Xiaoan knew very well in his heart that Dumbledore, an old man, was going to do something.

However, the minors had no right to decide, and Lin Xiaoan and Harry were directly blasted out by Madam Pomfrey, the queen of the school infirmary (not to mention a hospital, just a few beds, the hospital is a Merlin): "Okay boys, don't stay in the infirmary, you are as strong as two cows!" I don't even know why Dumbledore insisted on keeping you in the infirmary for the past few days! If you want me to say - you must go to the dinner party! ”

……

Lin Xiao'an dragged his feet, one step at a time, and reluctantly, came to the auditorium with Harry.

Because of the long delay on the road, when they arrived at the auditorium, it was already full.

The auditorium was decorated in green and silver representing Slytherin House to celebrate their seventh consecutive year of winning the House Cup.

On the wall behind the guest of honor stood a large banner depicting Slytherin snakes.

As soon as Lin Xiaoan and Harry walked in, the auditorium instantly became silent, and then everyone suddenly began to talk as if nothing had happened.

They walked over to Gryffindor's table and sat between Ron and Hermione, pretending not to notice that people were all standing up and staring at them.

……

"Xiao An—"

"Harry—"

Hermione and Ron spoke at about the same time.

Lin Xiaoan picked up a glass of pumpkin juice, pretended that it was eighty-two years old, and studied it carefully: "Hermione, don't ask me, I don't want to say anything now—ask Harry." ”

Hermione glared at Lin Xiao'an lightly, and then asked Harry, "Harry, I heard-"

Harry carefully guarded the placket of his chest—

On the night of Quirrell's attempt to rob the Philosopher's Stone, Lin and he were taken to the school infirmary by Dumbledore without saying anything ("Children, you've been frightened—yes, Ann, dear child, don't deny it, I'm sure you're frightened—so, you need to recuperate here for a few days. During this time, they are not allowed to be visited or leave by others—

Only Hagrid came in crying (can you imagine?). A big man with a beard covering his face and crying? He first blamed himself for not drinking and making mistakes, and for the sake of a dragon egg, he revealed the secret of how to pass the three-headed dog that guarded the Philosopher's Stone to "that villain!" As a matter of course, after getting the understanding and relief of Lin Xiaoan and Harry, he gave each of them the same gift-

Lin Xiaoan's forehead, eyes, and mouth twitched together, and he took Hagrid's homemade rock skin cake: "Thank you, Hagrid." ”

……

What Harry got was obviously much better than Lin Xiao'an's, although after he saw that Lin Xiao'an's gift was a rock skin cake, he asked worriedly, "It can't be a ferret sandwich, right?" ”

Hagrid finally forced out laughing.

"It's not. Dumbledore gave me a day off yesterday to sort it out. Of course, he should have fired me - okay, here's ......"

It looks like a book with a beautiful leather cover.

Harry opened it curiously, and it was plastered with pictures of wizards. On every page, it was his father and mother who smiled and waved at him.

"I sent owls to deliver letters to your parents' old classmates and ask them for photos...... I know you don't have a picture of them...... Do you like it? ”

Harry couldn't speak, but he understood enough.

Before Harry could put the album back in his bedroom, he went to the Great Hall for dinner, so he had to tuck it in the placket of his coat, and unconsciously clasped his hands in front of his chest—

It made him look like he's been given a cough cough cough...... "Hermione, I'd love to tell you everything, but—Professor Dumbledore, they're here!" ”

Dumbledore walked in with a smile on his face, and the noise in the Great Hall gradually subsided—

"Another school year has passed!"

With this as the opening statement, Dumbledore Barabala said a bit of nonsense, and then ten thousand (hundred?) Much-anticipated -

"Now, we're going to have the House Cup award ceremony – the specific scores for each house are as follows: fourth, Gryffindor, 312 points; third, Hufflepuff, 352 points; Ravenclaw 426 points, Slytherin 472 points. ”

The Slytherin table erupted in thunderous cheers and stomping.

Harry saw Draco Malfoy banging his goblet on the table, and it was disgusting.

Lin Xiao'an looked at the Slytherins in the carnival with pity: "Poor cubs, when will you understand, Dumbledore...... In fact, he is an eccentric eye who likes to do things!

"yes, yes...... Good performance, Slytherin. Dumbledore said, "However, several recent events must also be taken into account. ”

The Great Hall became very quiet, and the Slytherins' smiles narrowed a little.

"Ahem...... Dumbledore cleared his throat, "I have some points to assign here, let me see...... First ......"
