"Of course." Hallie leaned gently into her chair,

"You see, Uncle Remus is a friend of my father, and Professor Dumbledore doesn't think he's in danger."

"Even though the relationship between the two seems to be bad, Professor Snape provided him with the wolf poison potion to make sure that Uncle Remus would not endanger the lives of others."

"In this case, I can't think of any reason to discriminate against him and not allow Uncle Remus to be this Defence Against the Dark Arts professor."

Hermione's expression of surprise and horror faded away.

She began to think about it, and realized that, as Hallie had said, Professor Lupin didn't seem to pose any danger.

"Well, you're right." Hermione instantly regained her strength and began to stuff her books into her bulging bag.

……

On Saturday morning, the long-awaited first match of the Hogwarts Quidditch Cup finally began.

Today's weather is very bad, thunder and wind have been blowing since the morning.

However, Quidditch matches do not change their time due to bad weather.

And according to the rules, professors can't use weather spells to forcibly change bad weather.

This made Hufflepuff's captain Cedric very happy, after all, in terms of size, the Gryffindor players did not have an advantage.

Especially the sharpest knife on the Gryffindor team, Harley the chaser, who weighs too little.

This meant that Hallie would have to expend more energy in the storm to combat the pressures of the outside world, and the Hufflepuffs would have a little better.

It was close to eleven o'clock and the game was about to start, but the weather outside was not improving.

Of course, this did not dampen the interest of the young wizards in coming to watch the game.

Dressed in raincoats or with huge umbrellas, they huddled in the stands.

Hallie was very curious, what could they see in such bad weather? See a blurry team uniform?

The Gryffindor players changed into bright red jerseys and cheered them on in the locker room before walking to the lawn with their brooms.

No one has done anything waterproof, after all, adding an extra layer of raincoat to the Quidditch uniform will affect the speed of the flight.

Also, no spells or other magic items other than brooms can be used in Quidditch matches, so there is no way to use spells to prevent water.

Of course, if illegal means are secretly used and are not detected, then another story is to be said.

Wood and Cedric shook hands amicably and exchanged fists.

"Come on, Oliver!" "You too, Cedric!"

Despite the fact that the two are rivals, Gryffindor and Hufflepuff have a friendly relationship, and the two are friends in private.

After the captains of both sides returned to the team, all fifteen people on the field stepped on the broomsticks.

With a whistle, fifteen people rushed into the sky at the same time and flew to their positions.

The battle in the wind and rain has begun!

Harley braved the wind with a stability that did not fit her size and weight, and preemptively got the Quaffle thrown by Ms. Hooch.

At the same time, despite the wind and rain in the sky, lightning and thunder, the voice of the commentator Lee still resounded throughout the Quidditch arena:

"Welcome to the 1993-1994 Hogwarts Quidditch Cup, I'm Commentator Lee"

"The first game of the house was Gryffindor and Hufflepuff."

"It's a shame that the Slytherins, who were supposed to be involved in this tournament, swapped matches with Hufflepuff because of a minor injury to the Seeker's arm."

"Thank you Merlin, they are so kind!"

"Their choice allows Gryffindor to gnaw hard bones first, boost morale through a hearty battle in the wind and rain, and pinch soft persimmons at the end......"

Lee seemed to be blessed with magic, his gaze could pierce through the rainstorm, and his voice even drowned out the thunder.

Listening to Lee's familiar yin and yang aura, all the students except Slytherin burst into laughter.

Needless to say, the little badgers hated Slytherin's actions.

They didn't prepare for the rainy game at all, and they had to play inexplicably, and they suffered no matter how they thought about it!

The symbol of Hufflepuff is the badger, and the flathead is very vindictive!

Although the Ravenclaw eaglets have no stake, they eat melons...... Will anyone not like it?

Hallie didn't pay attention to Lee's explanation.

She took the Quaffle and flew quickly towards Hufflepuff's goal.

Under Hallie's extraordinary physical fitness, the rainstorm is not a resistance, but a weapon to help Harley hide her figure.

Before the other players could react to what was happening, and the audience could only see a cloud of red flying in the air, Lee's voice suddenly became excited:

"Hallie has scored! Thirty-seven seconds! Hallie scores the first goal from long range! Is Jedro sleepwalking? Wake up, this is not a training match! ”

Hufflepuff goalkeeper Jedero Moncart himself was blindsided.

Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?

If it weren't for Lee's announcement, he wouldn't have heard the sound of the ghost fly ball passing through the goal, and he wouldn't have known that Harley had scored!

"Jedro, move!"

While Ms. Hooch whistles and goes to pick up the Ghost Flyball, Cedric flies near the basket,

"The weather is bad and visibility is low, so you're going to want to increase the frequency of your movements!"

This temporary response did work, but it didn't work much.

After all, the Gryffindor Quidditch team has six more training sessions for rainstorms, and the players work much better with each other than the Hufflepuffs.

Visibility was low on this rainy day, and the Quaffle was too slippery when it got wet, so Wood devised a strategy to minimize passing.

Arya and Angelina took advantage of the rain curtain to accelerate and shuttle, compressing Hufflepuff's vision and jamming the opposing player's position.

Although the Weasley twins are difficult to find Bludgers, their very existence is a distraction that can bring psychological oppression to each other.

And Halle himself turned into the sharpest knife, holding the ball alone, avoiding other chasers, and tearing through the last line of Hufflepuff's defense, constantly scoring goals.

The difference between the two sides continued to widen, and in just twenty-five minutes, Harley had scored 110 points on her own.

The Hufflepuffs were also helpless, the rain was pouring down, and they could only see a vague red, unable to clearly distinguish who the other party was.

And the Hufflepuffs all use old-fashioned broomsticks, and no one can match Hallie's Halo 2000.

So there was a weird phenomenon on the court - Hufflepuff held the ball, Hufflepuff was stealed, Hallie held the ball, Hallie scored, Hufflepuff repossessed the ball......

The Hufflepuffs didn't even go through half the game!

Good guy, it's all in a loop, how can you fight?

At the moment, I don't know how many little badgers hate Slytherin to death, and they hate Malfoy to death.

Malfoy, you really damn it!
