Chapter 15: Twins
The Quidditch pitch is not far from the castle and has been built over the centuries to be majestic and imposing. Surrounded by tall pillar forts, the flags of the four colleges are hung respectively. Long vines fluttered in the sun.
There was a lady standing on the side of the field, Mrs. Hodge, the teacher of the flying lesson. She has short, refined hair that gives her a gritty and muscular look. However, in Nolin's opinion, this is probably the least powerful teacher at Hogwarts......
In front of Mrs. Hooch were two neat rows of broomsticks. Mrs. Hodge clapped her hands and shouted, "Welcome to the flying lessons, children, an amazing flying experience awaits you." Put away your wands, you don't need them for this class - except, of course, in exceptional circumstances. Now, see the broomsticks on the ground, stand next to themβ"
This class is taught by Ravenclaw and Gryffindor together. Norin casually found a broom and stood next to it, but heard a complaint next to him: "It's sweeping the seven stars again...... It's worse than a broom at home. β
Norlin turned his head to see twins next to him. Seeing the freckles on their faces and their red hair, Norlin knew who they were.
Norin tilted his head sideways and said, "Then your family agrees that you will climb the broom so early?" β
The other twin muttered, "That's right, my mother gets furious every time she sees us riding a broomstick, and says that you can only ride when you grow up...... We're not too young anymore, and she thinks we're Ron's cowards......"
Norin smiled, "Speaking of which, you don't look like freshmen, do you?" β
"You can see it!" Their voices rose exaggeratedly, and one of them said, "There is no class in the afternoon, so we will come to Mrs. Huoqi for class." This year's Quidditch player is bound for both of us! β
"Today, what we're going to do is take control of your broomsticks. Open your right hand, place it on top of the broom, communicate with the broom with your heart, and say, 'Get up!' 'Sounds simple, doesn't it?' Let's get started! Mrs. Hodge exclaimed.
The little wizards who said this looked at each other. Smith poked Nolin in the arm and whispered, "Why do I feel unreliable?" β
"Just give it a try and you'll know." Norlin said as he spread his right hand.
When he focused his attention on the broom on the ground, the magic seemed to have an inexplicable connection with the broom, and he blurted out: "Get up! β
The broom "swished" into the air and was held tightly in Nolin's hand.
"Cool!" The twins next to him exclaimed.
"Very good, Mr. Davis, you earned ten points for Ravenclaw." Mrs. Huo Qi naturally saw it in her eyes, in fact, it was difficult for her to see it if someone succeeded so quickly.
"Hey, Davis, my name is George Weasley, and he's Fred Weasley." The red-haired Weasley, who called himself George, leaned in and said, "How did you do that?" The first time we succeeded, it took half an hour! β
"Norin Davis." Norlin raised an eyebrow and said jokingly, "If you want to do it, you can do it." I think you're a lot more handsome than Fred. β
This made another Weasley smile and wink at Norin: "Good eye!" β
Fred looked unconvinced, and said dissatisfiedly: "Where do you see that he is more handsome than me......"
Halfway through speaking, he stopped abruptly and patted his head in frustration.
George asked angrily, "How did you find out?" We've used this trick so many times that no one can see through it! β
Nonsense, I've read the original. Norin complained in his heart, if he hadn't read the original book, he might have been deceived by them, but for a traverser, this can be deceived that is not enough IQ.
"Guess." Norlin blinked, not answering positively.
At this time, the stadium was covered with one after another "get up". Perhaps because of the ease with which Norin evoked the broom, the little wizards subconsciously felt that it was not a difficult task, but the broom on the ground was no different from the wood of the Muggle world, and they could not move no matter how they called.
Smith is naturally one of them. Sweat oozed from his forehead at some point, and he shouted "get up" over and over again, shouting so that Norlin looked a little unbearable, and reminded him loudly: "Focus, use the broom as your wand, and contact it with your heart." β
To be honest, Norlin didn't know if he was right, but Smith obviously didn't have any direction at all, and it was better than him blindly shouting.
Sure enough, after Smith shouted a few more times, the broom on the ground finally wobbly floated into Smith's hand.
Smith already looked at Norlin with a little admiration in his eyes: "Norin...... You're just amazing. β
"Nothing." Norin replied simply, his attention no longer here. The twins were already on their broomsticks and flying into the sky before he could talk to Smith.
"Phew!" George screamed, and flew across the air with Fred, looking triumphantly at the little wizards who were still shouting broomsticks on the ground.
"George Weasley! Fred Weasley! Get it down for me right away! Forget about allowing you to join the class, who let you fly without permission! Madame Hodge shouted angrily and with a little worry, to the sky.
However, as if they hadn't heard, the twin brothers circled and flew higher and higher.
Mrs. Hodge gritted her teeth, grabbed a broomstick, and chased after her.
Norin held his forehead, the twins were really not Ken'an's own people.
The two brothers were naturally no match for former Quidditch player Madame Hodge, who was captured by Madame Hodge within a few minutes.
Lady Hooch held a man's neck in one hand and said angrily, "Because of your recklessness, Gryffindor deducts twenty points!" β
Far from being dissatisfied, the Gryffindor's little wizards looked at both of them with admiration, as if they were watching the hero's triumphant return.
Norlin kind of knew why they were sorted into Gryffindor. Gryffindor, there are enough points.
George and Fred were not a little frustrated at being caught, but said to Norlin with a look of fun: "It's so comfortable, sure enough, there is nothing happier than flying, how can I have the opportunity to fly like this at home." β
After everyone had successfully held the broomstick in their hands, Mrs. Hodge cleared her throat and said loudly, "Next, it's time for the flight that you're most looking forward to." Sitting on a broomstick and holding the top of the broom with both hands is the only way you can control your direction. Then slowly kick your feet out and let the broomstick take you through the wonderful flight. β
Norlin got on his broomstick, took a deep breath, and kicked his feet up. The broom is like an arrow off the string, soaring into the air. Norlin was instantly pushed back by the tremendous inertia, his hand gripping the broom tightly, pressing his body forward inch by inch.
The wind blew on him in bursts, and the wizard's robes were blown to the sound of hunting. When he got used to the feeling, he saw a different world.
The castle still looks classical and majestic in the sky, the lake sparkling when you come to the castle, there is a large lawn in front of the castle, and the wall next to the Quidditch pitch is like a long snake. In the distance, you can see a black oppressive forest, which should be the Forbidden Forest.
Norlin somewhat understood the twins' penchant for flying. In this state, all worries and doubts disappear, and in their place are the joy of soaring in the sky.
"Whoa-hoo-" exhaled a cloudy breath, Norlin couldn't help but let out a long howl, and pulled the broom up with both hands, heading straight into the sky.
