Chapter 40: The Quidditch Event

The gossip is always the fastest in the world, and before dinner, the news that Modi Guris is preparing for the Quidditch World Cup and quitting the team spreads, and while many people marvel at Modi's skills, some people are secretly happy.

Wood gathered all the Gryffindor players.

"This is my last year," he said solemnly, "I'll leave at the end of the year, and I'll never get a chance to play again." ”

"We haven't won in seven years, we're the most unlucky, and we've got hurt again, and last year's tournament didn't have to go......" Wood couldn't go on, his memories like a choke in his throat.

Harry's expression was a little dazed, at that time he was absent because of the Philosopher's Stone, Gryffindor was defeated by the Ravenclaw led by Mo Wen with six to seven, but that seemed to be a long time ago, and his relationship with Guris was not bad at that time.

"But we're the best team in the school." He said, thumping his fist into his other hand, his usual mania flashing in his eyes again.

"We have batsmen who can't be beaten," the Weasley brothers just smiled at each other.

"Our chasers' attacks are unmatched," he said, looking at Angelina, Petty, and Alia.

"Also, we have a Seeker who is sure to catch the Golden Snitch," Wood exclaimed, glaring at Harry with a feverish pride, "and me." He thought about it and added.

"We all think you're very nice, Wood." George said.

"The best goalkeeper." Fred said.

"The problem is," continued Wood, pacing, "that the Quidditch Champions should have our name in the year." Ever since Harry joined our team, I thought the Gold Cup was in our bag, but we haven't gotten our hands on it yet, this is our last chance, we'll see our name on it......"

He glanced at Harry and Angelina, "I know there's some friction in the team, but I'm here to implore you to put some of your unhappiness aside and train hard." The latter all lowered their heads with a weak heart, in fact, Angelina and Harry did not have any contradictions, but they were just unhappy to see, and the other party wanted to protect their little lover.

Under Wood's sincere gaze, several of them nodded knowingly, indicating that they understood.

Looking at this qiΔ“, Wood let out a long sigh of loss, "Of course, the good news is not nothing, I just got accurate news, our biggest opponent - Ravenclaw's Guris has withdrawn from the team, and now there is no one who can stop us, our first opponent is the Slytherin team, in order to ensure victory, I decided to train the whole team!" ”

"What?"

"Isn't it!"

"Wood, you devil!"

The Gryffindor players, who had been a little enthusiastic by Wood, lamented one after another.

"You'd better be obedient," Wood looked at the Weasley brothers, who were whispering something they weren't talking about, his eyes shining, "I've heard that Guris turned Hufflepuff's Diggory into a pig, and I suddenly think it's a good idea, don't force me to do it." ”

George and Fred felt a chill in their hearts, the news that Diggory was turned into a pig and thrown on the train had already spread throughout the school, and the thought of being visited like this made their legs tremble.

Angelina and the others suddenly sighed.

"What's wrong?" Wood said, looking at his team with a frown and disgruntled eyes.

"I thought he was tall and good-looking," Arya.

"Strong and silent." Petty continued.

Angelina finally said: "I didn't expect it to be useless in the end, and it would be such a waste material." But after thinking about it, she added, "Of course, it may also be because Guris is too powerful." ”

I don't know what I thought, the three girls suddenly turned red at the same time, and the few people present were puzzled for a while.

Just as Gryffindor was preparing for a match against Slytherin, an accident interrupted their arrangement.

"We're not fighting Slytherin!" Wood sued them, looking angry, "Marcus just came to me, and we're going to deal with Hufflepuff." ”

"Why?" The other team members asked in unison.

"Marcus' excuse was that their Seeker's arm injury wasn't healed." Wood gritted his teeth and said, "It's obvious that they're doing this, they don't want to race in this weather." I don't think there's a good chance of winning......" As Wood spoke, it was raining heavily outside with strong winds and thunder, and they heard thunder in the distance.

"Malfoy's arm isn't okay at all." Harry said angrily. "He's pretending."

He had seen it all with his own eyes, and Malfoy had been scratched on the arm when he deliberately provoked the Hippogriff in order to frame Hagrid, but Harry was sure that the wound would be healed by Madam Pomfrey immediately

"We all know this, but we can't prove it." Wood said bitterly. 'We've been training hard thinking it's going to be Slytherin, and in the end it's going to be Hufflepuff, and they're playing very differently. Their captain Diggoryβ€”"

"It's a pig." Freddie snapped.

All the Gryffindor players laughed, and for a moment a smile appeared on Wood's lips, but immediately said sternly: "Don't take it lightly, Diggory is still very good." ”

As it turned out, Wood was right, and on the day of the game, they were locked in a tough battle.

In the rainstorm, Gryffindor still took the lead, but there were not many points.

Harry felt the icy rain seep into his skin, he could barely see his teammates and didn't know how the game was going, his Halo 2000 swaying in the wind, Wood shouting in the rain, but he couldn't make out what he was shouting.

"Harry!" Finally Wood's voice came, very anxious, "Harry, behind you. ”

Harry looked back just in time to see Diggory lunge at a golden ball again and again in the rainstorm.

Harry felt a sharp panic as he threw himself on his broomstick and flew towards the ball.

"Hurry, hurry!" He shouted to the Halo 2000 as the raindrops whipped in his face, "Faster!" "But something strange happened. There was a sudden eerie silence in the gymnasium, the wind was strong, but it was as if it had forgotten to make a sound, as if someone had suddenly turned it off, and Harry seemed to suddenly become deaf - what had happened?

Then a terrifying cold current of familiarity came over him, and he began to notice something moving on the court below......

More than a hundred Dementors, their faces covered with shame were facing him, and he felt the icy water rise up in his chest, cutting through his body. Then he started hearing people screaming again, screaming in his head......

The audience only saw Diggory grab the Golden Snitch and Harry suddenly slip off the broomstick, but everyone immediately realized what was happening, and a chilling chill came over them, and more than a hundred tall cloaked figures appeared on the court.
