Chapter 299: Illegal Assembly?
As soon as the first Wizard Card Tournament began, Albert dutifully performed his duties as a referee.
No way, if no one is watching, the wizard card game will probably become a mess.
Fred, George and Lee Jordan were all pulled to work as coolies, and it seems a bit unreasonable not to be a referee themselves.
The level of the first knockout game is so low that it's a bit spicy.
The contestants are Gryffindor and Hufflepuff, both of whom are not very familiar with the rules of the wizarding card, so it is best to describe it as rookie pecking at each other. Because I am not familiar with the rules of the Witcher card, there are often some low-level mistakes.
Albert looked embarrassed and had the urge to cover his face.
The crowd of onlookers next to him watched with relish, whispering who was wrong and who was wrong, if the contestants were all of this level, I might be able to win a championship or something.
Some talkative onlookers will also point out the mistakes made by the players, and laugh at them in a low voice for not even understanding the rules of the game, how can they sign up for the wizard card competition.
The Hufflepuff boy, who had made many mistakes, blushed all over his face, and finally gave up on continuing the game amid the whispers of everyone, quickly burrowed into the crowd, and disappeared.
"It's all about it. ”
Albert couldn't help but shake his head as he looked at the sound of the other party leaving. The Hufflepuff student was probably here to try his luck. Usually, he hasn't played wizard cards with other people a few times, not to mention that his skills are very poor, and he doesn't understand the rules of wizard cards, so I really don't know what kind of mood he has to participate in this wizard card competition.
Another Gryffindor student also looked at his opponent's departing back, turned to Albert and asked, "I won?"
"Yes, your opponent abstained, you won. ”
Albert ticked the parchment, then called the next pair and switched the cards in the deck.
The knockout rounds were far quicker than Albert had expected, and the Hufflepuff boy was definitely not the only one who couldn't understand the rules of the wizarding cards.
Sometimes, there are even things that make people laugh and cry.
"You should use another spell card, then he'll lose. ”
It's not just someone who can't help but interject, and as a result, one side loses the game.
Most of the audience looked at the owner of the voice.
"Please be quiet and don't interfere with other people's matches, this is the most basic courtesy of the audience. Albert looked inappropriately at the older student who had spoken.
The man was stunned instantly, his face was flushed, and he didn't refute, otherwise it would be tantamount to telling everyone that he was an impolite person.
"Please don't interfere with the game. Albert said to the crowd, "Also, the game just now restarted three rounds back. ”
Halfway through the knockout round, Albert also found that most of the students were not very good at playing wizard cards, and a game lasted only a few minutes at most, and the better players could always win two games in a row to defeat their opponents.
In the end, most of the players who stood out were acquaintances whom Albert knew, and only these who often smoked and played cards together could have an advantage in the game.
If there was one of the best wizarding card matches, there was none other than the duel between Shanna and Katrina, and many people came to watch this close matchup.
Albert simply threw away his work as a referee and ran over to watch the game.
In the end, Katrina lost.
"Wonderful game. Albert began to applaud, and the others were stunned and began to applaud.
Katrina was very depressed, thinking that it would not be difficult to win the championship, but she actually lost the game because the deck was drawn first.
With just one more round, she can definitely beat Shanna.
Unfortunately, she had already lost and was eliminated in the first round.
"Albert has an opponent and I'm looking forward to you beating him. George smiled at Shanna and said, "At the moment, you're the seeded player with the most potential to win the title. ”
Albert was speechless for a moment, the game has just begun, are you really not afraid of accidents like this?
"What are you doing here? Disperse, don't crowd all here. ”
An inopportune voice rang out from outside the crowd, and Filch pushed aside the crowd and walked over to see what the hell the group was up to.
"Is there anything wrong, sir?" asked Albert, frowning.
"I got an intelligence that someone was holding an illegal assembly here. ”
Filch pushed past the crowd of onlookers and walked over to this side, his eyes immediately fixed on Fred and George, his flabby cheeks shaking with excitement.
"And you, all of you, let's disperse, don't crowd here. He said to the crowd around him.
"What's going on?"
Fred, George and Lee Jordan also came over, and when they saw Filch, they all frowned, this guy was obviously not happy to be here.
Moreover, if Filch insisted that they were an illegal assembly, they really didn't have a good way to do it, and the game would become a joke, which was definitely not the outcome that the trio wanted to see.
"It's fine. ”
Albert soothed the three, turned his head to look at Filch, and said calmly, "Illegal assembly?" Are you sure your information is correct and you haven't been fooled?"
"What do you mean by that?" Filch said in a bad tone, his eyes fixed on Albert.
"The Wizarding Card Club meeting was approved and approved by Headmaster Dumbledore from the very beginning. Albert explained with a smile: "Our assembly is legal, legal from the beginning, and if you don't believe me, I have the signature of the principal here." ”
Albert reached into his pocket and pulled out a roll of parchment and handed it to the other party.
Filch took the parchment, glanced at the contents, and his face suddenly became gloomy, like a child who heard that Halloween had been canceled.
"The Wizard Card Club was established with the approval of the headmaster, and the guy I want to provide you with the information must be deliberately finding fault. ”
Albert's eyes were fixed on Filch's eyes, trying to find the man's name from the other party.
Filch walked away in a rage.
This dramatic scene made everyone talk about it, and they hadn't seen Filch deflated for a long time.
"When did you prepare the parchment?" Fred asked in a whisper.
"Of course this thing is true, and my words are all true. Albert glanced at Fred and said lightly: "The wizard card club is approved by the principal, and the signature on the parchment is also real. This activity is conducive to the unity and friendship of the students, how can the principal not approve it?"
Actually, the parchment was prepared to prevent a professor from coming to them to make trouble, and although the chances were not high, Albert was still on guard.
After all, some people's temperance is indeed a bit low.
"Who gave Filch the information. Li Jordan had a calm face, ready to settle accounts with the man.
The first Wizard Card Tournament meant a lot to the four of them, and they would never tolerate someone destroying it, let alone turning it into a joke.
"I don't know, don't worry about it yet. Albert reached out and patted Lee Jordan on the shoulder, "Go back and do your refereeing job, the first round of eliminations is not over yet." ”
"If I had known who had done the good work, I would have taught him a lesson in the making. Fred gritted his teeth.
If Albert hadn't been prepared, he would have been disgusted.
