Chapter 85: Invitations and Admonitions

Seeing that Malfoy was about to pat Luke and get his attention, Taylor could only open his mouth again and spit out a syllable while he sighed wordlessly.

Malfoy only felt as if there were thousands of horses in his ears, galloping by. In addition to the pain, he was also a little dizzy, and he had to stop there.

Luke naturally observed this in his spare eyes, but he didn't care, his attention was on the last few ingredients.

First, I picked up the moon flower and threw it in when the potion was light blue.

After the moonflower has melted into the potion, add the opal powder.

The wand was a little above the cauldron, and the swirling potion gradually subsided, only gurgling and boiling.

Luke threw the last of the dry limbs of the Cauldron into the cauldron, and the potion in the cauldron began to rapidly change color, from light blue, to bone white, then to bright yellow, and finally to a light purple.

Luke didn't dare to slack off, and when it turned purple, he immediately sank into his wand and shook it slightly. The potion in the cauldron began to rotate counterclockwise, and the light purple color gradually disappeared while the potion evaporated rapidly, becoming colorless and transparent, as plain as clear water, except that a surging fragrance wafted out of the cauldron.

Luke had a look of surprise on his face, but he quickly relented. As he removed a potion vial from a nearby shelf, he shook his wand, and the few potions left in the cauldron flew up from it, like a small water dragon, and plunged headlong into the potions vial.

Closing the lid, Luke breathed a sigh of relief, wiped a handful of sweat from his forehead, which he didn't know if it was nervous or hot, and then handed the potion bottle in his hand to Taylor again.

Taylor reached out and took it, opened it and sniffed it, and after seeing that there was no major problem, he dropped a drop on his finger, and when he saw that there was nothing wrong, he put a drop on his finger into his mouth and tasted it.

Then he nodded: "No problem." ”

Luke was relieved, then turned to Malfoy, who was still a little dazed, and asked, "Is there something wrong?" Draco? ”

Malfoy shook his head, which was still a little dizzy, the roar had long since calmed down, but the rest of the dizziness was difficult to calm down for a while.

But by the time Luke asked, Malfoy had already come back to his senses.

Luke looked at him and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" You don't look very comfortable. ”

Hearing Luke ask, Malfoy squeezed a smile out of his face: "It's nothing, it's just a little ...... Tinnitus? ”

Luke heard this answer, and said with a strange expression: "Tinnitus? We shouldn't be the age of tinnitus now, right? ”

Luke said this, but the children didn't understand what it meant, and even Taylor was at a loss.

Snape, who had a nimble ear, took the words in his ears and moved his hands. Harry shuddered and almost poured a bottle of opal powder into the cauldron.

Snape first gave Luke a strange look, then looked at Harry, who was on the verge of making a mistake, and began to taunt Luke as a routine in every lesson with a sneer on his lips.

While feeling in his heart that Snape's attitude towards Harry was only strange and complicated, Luke said to Malfoy seriously: "I can't stay up late anymore, I have to ensure my body." ”

Looking at the concern on Luke's face, Malfoy was really moved.

"I will!"

"Okay, by the way, what are you looking for me?"

After saying that, Luke opened his mouth to ask about Malfoy's intentions, and Malfoy remembered what he was doing.

"That's right, Captain Flint asked me to invite you to see the Quidditch practice at our Snake Yard." Malfoy looked at Luke with a proud face, "He's heard that you haven't played Quidditch before, so it's like asking you to come over and have a look, maybe you can get interested." And you have a good flying talent, and you might have a chance to join the varsity team. ”

If the students are at the top of the chain of contempt, for now, they are indeed those of the Quidditch team.

The twins had a reputation throughout the school, not just because the two of them could make a fuss, but also because the two of them were Gryffindor Quidditch players, and they played very well.

Luke thinks that if he really has that talent, he would naturally be willing to join the Quidditch team. Unfortunately, his talent, while not bad, is far from outstanding.

Besides, I really don't have much interest, so this thing is better than nothing.

The flaws he showed in front of everyone were that he was not good at making potions. Any more is more than that.

So after his first flying lesson, he made up his mind not to join the Quidditch team.

It's just that he never expected that Marcus Flint would be so persistent.

It's a bit not normal to be obsessed.

When Luke thought of this, his eyes changed, and it was as deep as a breathtaking deep pool for an instant, but it was only for a moment, and he quickly recovered, and said to Malfoy, "Okay, I want to see it too." What time? ”

Malfoy was overjoyed when he heard this. In fact, he knew Luke quite well, and knew that Luke really had no interest in Quidditch. Every time they talked, Luke could mix up a few words and even say something insightful.

But no one else could see it, how could someone like Malfoy, who had been socializing with his dad since he was a child, not see it.

Luke talked to them about Quidditch in much the same way that his dad talked to the others about things he didn't like.

My Healing Game

Smiling lightly, flat and quiet. I don't say much, but if you really want to ask, you can definitely give a brilliant enough answer.

Seriously, he knew that the circle of people around him, including Harry, Ron, and even the two twins from Wesley's house, would never see what Luke meant.

Because they don't have a lot of such socials at home.

But unfortunately, this kind of entertainment is not lacking in every standard aristocratic family......

So it can be regarded as one of the necessary skills for the children of the nobility when they become adults.

Therefore, when he came, he really didn't expect Luke to agree so easily.

And Luke looked at the change in his face, and the surprise emotion, and his mind was in a flash, and he figured out something, so he smiled and said to Malfoy: "Look at your face, after all, you know me." ”

As soon as these words came out, it really made Malfoy feel proud and happy at the same time as he felt that he had more face.

"Tomorrow afternoon, the right to use the stadium is mainly for the first-year students to have a mock match, so that the first-year students can see our majestic and heroic appearance."

As he spoke, there was pride in his tone that could not be concealed.

"Looks like you're one of them."

Luke picked up with a light smile.

Hearing this, Malfoy's face turned into a smug smile.

"As a candidate for the first grade, I will follow several other seniors to train against me tomorrow."

The smugness on his face was not mentioned, and the pride in his tone also made others look envious.

It's not a big commotion, but Harry and Ron aren't far from them, so they naturally listen to everything. He even felt Malfoy's somewhat defiant gaze. Just looking at Ron, though.

Ron gave Malfoy a disdainful look, disdainful of his pride, and then at Snape, who had already walked away, before saying to Harry, "Look at Malfoy's smug look, it's just a candidate." You're already our Gryffindor Seeker, and you don't show off to anyone else. ”

Harry blushed a little at what he said, it wasn't that he didn't want to show off, but Wood didn't let him show off, after all, he wanted to use him as a secret weapon. What he was saying from the dinner table earlier. Everybody heard that. Although Malfoy also heard it. Naturally, the secret weapon does not exist. But Harry wasn't stupid, and since Wood hadn't said anything else, he had better keep a low profile.

Moreover, those whom he thought deserved his display had already been shown.

The news that Malfoy had become a candidate had not been known before, and he had come over to show Luke, as well as Harry and Ron.

You must know that the selection of a normal Quidditch team starts from the second year, but the candidates are not just the second year, but from the second year to the seventh year.

Among the candidates to participate in the competition, only the first-year one is afraid of Malfoy.

After Luke gladly accepted the invitation, Malfoy quickly returned to his place and began to brew his share of cold medicine under Snape's cold gaze.

At dinner time, Luke and Taylor sat in a corner, and Hermione came from not far away and sat down calmly.

Gemma saw the three of them from a distance, but didn't rush together until Luke called out.

Everyone first talked about some interesting things in class, and Hermione also admired the senior sister who was famous for her label of 'very capable', and in her eyes, those who were admitted to the first grade were worthy of respect.

Whether it's Percy Weiss or Gemma Farley in front of him.

It doesn't really matter what the academy is. Since she came to the school, she hadn't seen such a fierce battle between colleges.

On the contrary, it is a bit of unity and mutual help. In the past few days, she has seen Ravenclaw students helping Gryffindor students make up for their lessons. There are also Slytherin students who give Hufflepuff how to prepare some of their own dishes.

Regardless of other ages, the people in the first grade are really harmonious.

After all, in all grades, those who are faintly leading can sit at the same table and eat.

Hufflepuff's Ernie McMillan also often comes to Luke's side to play with.

And chatting, they talked about the invitation that Malfoy had given today.

Luke didn't hide it, and after swallowing the contents of his mouth, he said calmly: "I really didn't expect Marcus to be so persistent." But when I thought about it, there must be something asking for me. ”

So in the corner of the table, the inconspicuous four people fell silent together.

Hermione was still a little confused, and Taylor and Gemma were already thinking. And Hermione felt a little strange after seeing Luke's calm expression and the movements of the other two. But after all, he didn't say anything, and silently began to think.

Luke looked at Hermione's performance and was satisfied.

Of course, he didn't think that Hermione would come up with it faster or more deeply than the other two.

Gemma and Taylor are both going through big things. There is a heavy pressure on my heart.

Luke didn't ask, and they didn't ask.

Compared to them, Hermione's story before entering school must have been unremarkable. But he was very happy.

"Maybe it's to get your attention and make you a Quidditch player? The key is that you have a living signboard, and you will definitely be able to gain the support of neutral students from the other two colleges when the two colleges face off? ”

Hermione didn't think it was too much of a problem, so she thought about it briefly and said a possibility.

Luke nodded, but didn't say right or wrong.

After a few moments, Taylor spoke, "Probably nothing too deep, Flint hasn't had any crooked thoughts all along. Probably just an appointment, and he really values you. Would love to get your support. And he wanted to change the equipment for the team, but he was really short of money. ”

Hermione and Gemma both looked at Taylor, who was talking, and wondered about her determined tone, but seeing that Luke only nodded, they didn't ask more.

"Marcus really doesn't have a lot of eyes...... Although he is a bit of a domineering person, he is generally at odds with people on Quidditch. Gemma was the first to speak, "Gryffindor's Wood doesn't have a good relationship with him because both of them play tough. And you know what Slytherin's ethos used to be, so it's not worth talking about. ”

"I think Hermione and Taylor have a point. Marcus wants to change his gear, but the lack of money is not news. It's not impossible to find you. As long as you're in love with Quidditch, it's not a big deal to spend some money on a change of gear. You don't even look at these little bucks. ”

Although this is only a synthesis of the reasons for the first two, it is rare to find the internal logical connection between the two reasons. It seems that he did guess Marcus's thoughts.

Luke nodded again, but this time seriously, because he thought so himself.

"But...... Luke, I have to tell you something. ”

Instead of continuing on to Luke's question, Gemma pulled up another topic.

Seeing that there was no joke on her face, Luke said, "You say." ”

"Marcus isn't the only one in the team, even though he's already captain this year. But there was another person who was very bad with him. ”

"Oliver Knott. 7th graders in Slytherin. ”

"The key thing is...... He was an ardent proponent of the pure-blood theory. ”

"Your speech on the night of school upset him. On the surface, I can't trouble you, but on the court, it's a reasonable collision. ”

"I must invite you this time, it may not be without his help."

"Be careful, Luke."

Gemma said with a serious face: "Things may not be simple. ”
