Chapter 165: It's not as good as the fish in the black lake
The Quidditch boom at Hogwarts lasted for a long time, and the library quickly ran out of books, with people waiting to borrow until after Christmas.
"I should have come early if I had known."
At the door of the library on the second floor, Harry said with some chagrin.
Tomorrow night at seven o'clock is his special training time, and he originally wanted to read the relevant books in advance to learn more about this knowledge.
But Mrs. Pince, the librarian, told him that there was no more, and that if he wanted to see it, he would have to wait until after Christmas.
But Christmas is still a few months away, and it's too long.
"There's no way around it." Ron laughed and said, "Everyone is talking about Quidditch, and if you don't know anything, you will be laughed at." ”
As he spoke, Ron unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth.
Because of his knowledge of Quidditch, coupled with the fact that he has two brothers from the house team, he can be said to be quite popular these days, and he is surrounded by a group of young wizards everywhere he goes.
This feeling of being noticed and valued by everyone was something he had never experienced before.
"Why don't we go and ask Hermione?"
Harry said tentatively, "I remember she had a copy of The Amazing Quidditch Ball there, and I don't know if she had returned it." ”
"I think it's better to forget it."
Hearing the name, Ron grinned and immediately retracted it.
He frowned and said with a bitter face, "It's been a long time since she came back from the fourth floor that day.
And Gryffindor knew that Hermione had never borrowed more than three days of books. ”
Harry remembered what Ron said...... Hermione was indeed like that.
From the first day of school, she always carried two books with her, one for class and the other borrowed from the library.
It's not about making a show, it's really about watching.
In addition, when she was in the common room, she rarely communicated with other young wizards, and always sat silently in the corner reading a book by herself.
I don't know who first found it, saying that she borrowed those books from the library and basically changed them every three days.
Seamofinigan had sworn to make a bet with the two that she wouldn't last a month.
However, judging from the current situation, he is probably going to lose, as long as Hermione changes it tomorrow, he will have to buy a box of Bibi Beans for everyone in the dormitory.
Harry didn't care about a box of candy, but he still couldn't figure out how Hermione managed to read a book in two or three.
For him, even reading a book in two weeks is a difficult task to complete.
"Forget it then." Harry sighed.
In fact, he was quite afraid of seeing Hermione, the invisible aura of the school bully made him always very nervous.
"Otherwise, ask Kyle."
At this point, Ron suddenly said, "I've heard Fred and George say that he has a book on Quidditch, and more than one. ”
Harry was a little moved, but still hesitated, "But, I don't know Kyle, will he lend me the book?" ”
"Don't worry, I'm here." Ron patted his chest, then pulled Harry and ran downstairs.
"And if it works, you have to try it to find out...... Come with me, and we'll go to him now. ”
The two searched around the castle, from the underground classroom to the Astronomy Tower, but they couldn't find Kyle.
Not to mention this, even the twins and Cedric seem to be gone.
Finally, while on the Astronomy Tower, Harry accidentally glanced out of the castle and saw a few people fishing by the Black Lake.
……
"So, you're looking for me to borrow a Quidditch book?"
On the edge of the Black Lake, Kyle looks at the panting duo and asks, "Isn't there one in the library?" The collection of books there is much richer than mine, so you can just borrow it. ”
"It's been borrowed." Harry gasped and said nervously, "Mrs. Pince said it wouldn't be until after Christmas. ”
On the way here, Ron had said that he could borrow the book, but Harry thought it would be better to say it himself.
After all, he really wanted to read books, not Ron.
"Quidditch books are so popular right now?"
Kyle looked at Harry with a nervous look on his face, and didn't say anything more, just took out his wand.
"Quidditch Origins is flying!"
In a short time, a thick book arced through the air and landed lightly in Kyle's hand.
"You should read this book first."
Kyle handed the book to Harry, "There are some flight instructions in there, which is more suitable for a newbie like Ling." ”
"Thank you, thank you!"
Harry hurriedly took it, "I'll give it back to you as soon as possible." ”
Kyle waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I don't need this book right now, just read it." ”
Harry thanked him again before returning to the castle with Ron.
After they left, Kyle turned to look at Fred and George next to him, wondering, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Ron took the initiative to greet them as soon as they met, but the twins didn't even look back as if they hadn't heard.
That's a bit out of the ordinary.
Fred and George, though they like to play tricks on their little brother, never ignore him, and will be perfunctory no matter what.
"It's nothing, it's just that I just don't want to talk to him." Fred sighed.
"We only thought Ron wasn't smart, but we never thought he was so stupid."
"Why......" Kyle seemed to smell melons.
George asked, "Remember the last time we met them on the fourth floor?" ”
Kyle nodded, he didn't just remember, he had seen them with his own eyes.
"We've inquired."
Fred said, "They agreed to Malfoy's wizarding duel, and they went to the fourth floor. ”
"Wizard duel?" Cedric subconsciously said, "Slytherin doesn't easily send out wizard duels, this sounds like a trap. ”
"Who's to say it isn't."
George shook his head and said, "Curfew time, on the fourth floor, where it is easiest to be discovered, wizards duel...... Together, even goblins can see that they are traps. ”
"But Ron actually believed ......"
"Merlin, is he really a Weasley?"
"Uh......" Cedric opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say a few words of justice for Ron, but he didn't know what to say.
After all, Charlie, Percy and the twins are all very smart, and in such a comparison, Ron's head is really not very bright.
"A straight hook can bite ......," Fred said, shaking the rod in his hand, "He's not even as good as the fish in the Black Lake!" ”
