When he walked into the dormitory, he found that Fred and George had not returned.

"What about the two of them?"

Lee Jordan sat on the edge of the bed with his hands on his face, and when he heard Carl coming in, he lay down on the bed and avoided Carl.

"They're on base."

Fred and George's base is in a secret passage, where they will tinker with some prank props.

Karl, who noticed that Lee Jordan was not in a high mood, walked up to Lee Jordan gently.

He didn't speak, just sat next to Lee Jordan and held Lee Jordan's hand.

Lee Jordan's hands were still a little wet, but Carl didn't mind, he didn't speak, just sat next to him.

Of all Karl's friends, Lee Jordan is one of the few super-optimists who always seems to have a loud mouth.

However, optimistic people also have troubles, but they digest them well and never pass them on to others.

Unfortunately, Carl happened to be the time when Lee Jordan was digesting his troubles.

However, this is not a blessing.

"I'm fine." Lee Jordan buried his head in the quilt, the thick quilt distorting his voice. "It's just a little tired."

Carl still didn't speak, he still held Lee Jordan's hand, hoping to transfer his power to Lee Jordan.

"Carl."

Carl listened carefully.

"Do you think there's a kind of magic in this world?" Lee Jordan asked. "It allows me to be better, just like Charlie."

Karl was silent.

"Or like Cedric, Fred, George, you?" He turned his back to Carl and muttered.

"I'm in sports, and I don't think I'm as good as them." Remembering that Monty was almost killed today, Carl deliberately diverted the topic and said.

He didn't like the current atmosphere and wanted to see if he could change the topic and divert Li Jordan's attention.

"That's not what I said." Lee Jordan shook off Karl's hand and gestured, "It's the ······."

He was even more depressed.

"There must be no such magic in this world, and if there were, there wouldn't be so many ordinary wizards in this world."

Carl didn't know how to answer this question.

Magic is a miracle, and the possibilities are endless.

However, in the area of talent, a paradox can be formed: if such a magic exists, then since it has not been discovered until now, it must have a threshold, and it needs to be discovered by people with real talent.

But why do truly gifted people need such magic, and waste time searching for it?

There's so much to explore for the promising.

"Sometimes I envy you." Lee Jordan whispered, "Join the team, become the youngest member of the team, turn the tide of the game in one fell swoop, and win the championship for the team." ”

Carl knew he was talking about Charlie, a genius who joined the team in his sophomore year and helped Gryffindor win the championship.

It was from that moment that he became a new star in the spotlight, and gradually became a highly anticipated star across the UK.

"I want to do that, too." Lee Jordan suddenly laughed, and Carl could feel the pain, "But I ran away from ······"

When they joined the team before, Lee Jordan realized after a simple training session that he couldn't take over Charlie's class.

To be exact, not only him, but everyone in the team saw it.

Later, with Karl's encouragement, he chose to stay with the team and switch to the competitive chaser position.

There are three positions for chasers, and judging from the grade distribution, they will be completely retired by next year at the latest, so choosing a competitive chaser is undoubtedly a good choice.

However, judging from the current ending, this may not be a good choice.

"Actually, I found out in the next semester that I really can't do it." Lee Jordan said, "But what if······"

"Li ······" Carl listened quietly, he felt that Lee Jordan was not such a fragile person.

"Good news, Karl, first year has a great Seeker, Katie Bell. When Wood saw her playing with Angelina today, he invited her to become the new Seeker next semester. ”

Carl blinked, he now understood why Lee Jordan was so depressed.

It's clear that Wood has found another good seedling, at least more potential than Lee Jordan, who has been training for more than half a year.

"So the list is finally confirmed?"

Lee Jordan nodded and hummed softly.

"Angelina will play in the next game, and Arya and Katie Bale will be paired with Angelina next season."

Then Lee Jordan's position is awkward.

As if noticing Carl's expression, Lee Jordan smiled.

"Wood wants me to continue in my position as a Seeker."

Carl didn't show a look of surprise on his face, but became even more depressed: "Li ······"

That sounds like good news.

He hoped that this was really good news, he hoped that Lee Jordan's previous depression was a prank, and he hoped that Lee Jordan would now be able to put away the pain in his eyes, smile and say, "Ha, why are you so stupid!" ”

It's a pity, judging by what he knows about Lee Jordan······

"I can't fool you, Carl." Lee Jordan scratched his head, "I refused and I didn't completely refuse." I said that if you really can't find someone, I'm willing to go back and be a Seeker, otherwise you'd better find a new one. Well, isn't that stupid? ”

Carl didn't know if Lee Jordan was really stupid, so he put his arm around Lee Jordan's head and patted him on the back.

"Lee... Li ······" He gently repeated Lee Jordan's name, "Brave decision, Lee, really, very brave." ”

"Carl!"

Lee Jordan's mental defenses that he had managed to put together were broken again, and he was crying in Karl's arms.

Tears wet Carl's chest, but Carl hugged his friend even tighter.

"Am I really brave? But it's really uncomfortable······"

Lee Jordan lacked qualifications, and everyone realized it after he was suppressed by Cedric in his first year.

Lee Jordan may be able to become a barely qualified Seeker after hard training, but for a team that wants to win the championship, the most important Seeker is undoubtedly too ordinary.

The Quidditch players also realized this early on, so when Lee Jordan proposed to change positions, everyone was surprised but still understanding.

Without Katie Bale, this would undoubtedly be perfect - teammates in the same grade, a year of running-in, the cooperation will be more tacit.

But everything changes when a younger, better, and more potential newcomer appears.

For the sake of the team's results, Wood chose Katie Bell.

But Lee Jordan, who worked hard for a year, completely lost his position in the team.

Wood wants Lee Jordan to turn back to the Seeker, maybe to compensate for Lee Jordan, maybe there really is no other better candidate, everyone is a weakness, so why not an acquaintance?

Most likely, both.

Lee Jordan is well aware of this.

So he refused, he didn't want to be a drag on the team, he wanted Gryffindor to win the championship.

Lee Jordan, who refuses to be a Seeker, will have a lot of incomprehension on his back.

Cowards, evaders, regardless of the overall situation, run away in a negative mood······ Like the ones he had feared.

This time it's no longer Lee Jordan's unfounded worries, and Carl believes there will be a lot of negative perceptions waiting for Lee Jordan.

But this is the best option for the Gryffindor team.

Compared to a Lee Jordan who has already seen the beginning, discovering new talents with more potential is the only way for Gryffindor to win the championship.

Lee Jordan chose to face the ones he had feared, so Carr said it was a brave decision.

Lee Jordan, crying, said intermittently.

He once imagined that he would be the final savior on the court, he had imagined that he and Angelina worked together on the court, and he had imagined that he would lift the supreme trophy.

But it's all over.

It ended on a regular Thursday in April.

By the time Fred and George returned, Carl had already packed everything up and sat by the window staring at the stars in the sky.

"Ah, Carl, haven't slept yet?" Fred glanced at Lee Jordan, who was already asleep, and pushed George next to him, "Look at how beautiful he sleeps, the smile on his face ······"

"Let him sleep." Carl interrupted Fred, "Lee is tired today. ”

"Really? I thought it would be Lee who had insomnia. Fred snorted and put something on Lee Jordan's bedside. I suddenly regretted it when I saw this smile, and it seemed that I had worked in vain tonight. ”

"What's that?" Karl looked at the tightly wrapped gift.

George winked his eyes: "A thing that can make Lee happy." ”

"It's going to take us a lot of work all night, if it weren't for ······" Fred was lying on the bed, and he suddenly looked up and said to George, "Why don't we collect some money from Lee tomorrow?" ”

"You ······" Carl looked at the two who had already gone to bed, and a smile appeared on his lips.
