Chapter 402: A Great Victory
"Flint's despicable behavior has completely angered the spectators in the stands!" Lee Jordan shouted into the microphone with an unconcealed excitement in his tone, "Look, it's amazing that someone is throwing a curse at him in the audience, oh I mean it's terrible, it's chaos on the field right now, and Mrs. Hodge has to blow the whistle to stop the game." ”
"Jordan!" Professor McGonagall yelled in a low voice.
"Then again, Flint didn't get hit by the curse, and I dare say he must have stepped on shit when he went out today. The more Lee Jordan spoke, the more excited he became, and when he found that Professor McGonagall was about to take away his microphone, he quickly changed his words: "Okay, well, Slytherin's Quidditch captain did succeed in preventing Gryffindor from winning the game, and almost killed the Gryffindor team's Seeker, and his despicable behavior also aroused the displeasure of the audience, hoping that Flint would not be hit by the curse during the game." ”
Mrs. Hodge yelled at the crowd to stop the people from casting curses on the players, and the game was suspended for ten minutes before the chaos subsided.
However, the chaos just now still can't change the fact that the Gryffindor team has been completely suppressed by the Slytherin team, and the current score is 20:40, and the Slytherin team is temporarily ahead.
This is not the first time that Fred and George have encountered this situation, the two have already begun to hack the Slytherins, and the pursuer Bell was threatened by Fred's stick and had to raise his broom to avoid the stick, for which he directly received a frontal Bludger from George, and his nose was smashed.
Awesome!
The Weasley twins high-fived in the air, greeted by a cheer from Gryffindor House.
However, the crowd didn't rejoice for long, as the ball fell out of Bale's hand, was caught by another Slytherin pursuer, and the Slytherin roared to score the goal.
"Is there something wrong with Potter's broom?"
In the audience, Isobel noticed the change on the field and motioned for Albert to pay attention to Potter's situation, "I don't think a Slytherin student has the ability to interfere with a broomstick. ”
"Have you started?"
Albert muttered and moved the binoculars toward Potter's place. Potter's broomstick was out of control, twitching, writhing, and rising higher and higher, carrying Harry Potter away from the ring.
"What did you just say?" said Isobel, raising an eyebrow slightly.
"Look ......over there," Albert said, gesturing in Snape's direction, "I guess someone was casting a curse on Potter's broom." ”
"Snape?" Isobel looked in the direction of Albert's finger and saw Snape standing not far away, his eyes fixed on the sky, his mouth silently muttering, as if he was about to recite a curse and fall Harry Potter to death.
"It shouldn't be!"
"What?"
"I don't think Snape should be so stupid, even if he could throw Potter out of the air, he wouldn't have just thrown Potter to death. ”
That's right, Isobel's idea is completely reasonable, most of the professors at Hogwarts come to watch this Quidditch match, as long as Harry Potter is thrown off the broomstick, there will definitely be a professor who will give him a shock absorbing charm in time, and the problem of falling from a height can be easily solved. Harry Potter won't be fine, at best he'll be frightened.
Snape didn't know why he liked to trouble Harry Potter. "But as long as his brain hasn't been caught in the door, he probably won't use this kind of bad trick." ”
"Do you already know who's casting a curse on Potter's broom?"
Isobel looked at Albert in surprise, and she also felt that it was unlikely to be Snape, after all, Snape's gloomy guy didn't look like a fool at all.
Albert laughed and didn't answer.
Isobel turned his attention to the other professors, frowning slightly as his gaze swept over Professor Quirrell.
The new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is indeed suspicious.
"Professor Quirrell?"
"Why do you say that?"
"Professor Quirrell is actually suspicious, the big scarf...... Well, I can't read his thoughts. "From my impression of him, Professor Quirrell is obviously not a great wizard, he should be more theoretical, and there are not many wizards who are good at Occlumency. ”
"Although there is no evidence, it is possible that Quirrell is a minion of the mysterious man. Albert said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "In the future, stay away from Quirrell, and don't try to use the Dementor on him." ”
"Then you still ask him questions a lot, and I heard that Professor Quirrell is avoiding you now. Isobel said rather speechlessly. "But what did Quirrell do at Hogwarts, to get rid of Potter, or to steal the object in the hallway of the restricted area on the fourth floor. ”
"It should be the latter. Without hesitation, Albert said, "Getting rid of Potter should just be a matter of course." ”
"I remember that Professor Quirrell came out of Ravenclaw House, so he shouldn't be that stupid!"
"Who knows?" Albert couldn't figure out why Quirrell thought he could kill Potter by throwing him off his broomstick. ”
Perhaps, Voldemort's possession made his IQ drop?
Perhaps, he was actually forced by Voldemort to do this?
Maybe......
All in all, it all looked like a farce to Albert.
That's right, a farce.
At this moment, all the spectators in the stands noticed the abnormality of Harry's broom, and everyone was whispering and discussing what was going on with Harry's broom.
The Slytherin students were staring at Harry Potter, and some even started shouting "Fall", "Fall", and whenever Potter fell off the broomstick, they could take every coin out of Kenneth Toller's pocket, and even rip off his pants before leaving.
Harry's situation was not good, he was almost thrown off the broomstick, and now he only grabbed the broom handle with one hand, hanging in the air, and his condition was precarious.
Albert wasn't too worried about Potter's situation, the binoculars fell under the banner, and Hermione was gone next to Ron. Albert looked back at Snape and saw that the guy had just been startled and was trying to extinguish the flames on his robes.
Albert turned his gaze back to Potter, and sure enough, the broom was back to normal, and Harry had climbed back onto the broomstick, much to the disappointment of most of the Slytherin students. They also experienced the feeling of the students who had just bet Harry would catch the Golden Snitch as if they were on a rollercoaster ride.
If Albert found that Snape was carrying this black cauldron, it was really not unreasonable, if he didn't know the plot and saw the scene just now, he would probably think that Snape was casting a curse on Potter's broom, and at most he would suspect that Snape's IQ might be a little problematic.
With about another twenty minutes played, Slytherin was still slowly extending their advantage and they managed to score two more goals to stretch the score to 20:60.
While the people were furious that the Slytherin players were trying to attack Harry, they found Harry lunging down to dodge the oncoming Bludger and start a Golden Snitch chase with Higgins once more.
This time, Higgins gave up at the last minute as they dived directly towards the Golden Snitch on the ground at high speed.
"Potter has caught the Golden Snitch. Albert smiled and said to Isobel next to him as he saw Harry lift the Snitch that had spit out of his mouth above his head.
"Congratulations, you've won the bet again, remember to treat you next time." ”
The game ended in chaos as Gryffindor won 170-60 over Slytherin.
He didn't catch the snitch, and Potter almost swallowed it. Flint yells angrily, but it doesn't work at all, and Harry catches the Golden Snitch and wins for Gryffindor, and worse, he and his partner lose a lot of Galleons as a result.
After the match, Flint is blocked on the Quidditch pitch by a group of students, and the debt collectors arrive.
