Of course, Diana didn't come in the end, and for some reason, she rarely appeared in crowded occasions like school.

But despite this, she sent Dumbledore a howling letter.

No one knows what the shouting letter was about, but that day, someone saw a phoenix at the Quidditch pitch, and there was a group of braggart old men and women in the castle's portrait.

"That little girl is terrible......"

Someone was passing through the corridor when he heard a big-nosed wizard complaining to a witch beside him:

"She even scolded us...... Merlin's stockings, what does Dumbledore have to do with us looking for a Death Eater to be a professor, I've been dead for more than three hundred years......"

Dumbledore? Death Eaters?

The student felt like he had discovered something, and hurriedly stopped, trying to hear clearly.

But when he turned his head to look at the portrait, he saw that the man inside was chasing a bantam and was not talking at all.

Look next to ...... Two witches are having afternoon tea.

"Did I hear it wrong?" He scratched his head and left in confusion.

Wait until the afternoon...... Chris is here.

However, Kyle felt that he was more like he had taken this opportunity to visit relatives and friends at the school, and he didn't say a few words to himself, but had a very speculative conversation with Professor Flitwick next to him.

Later, Professor McGonagall came, and the more they talked, the happier they became, and at last they ran three broomsticks and drank together.

Kyle watched in amazement as they left the castle and gave a silent thumbs up.

As for Harry, he was still in the school hospital, sadly lying in his hospital bed.

He wasn't surprised that the Dursleys didn't come.

Saddened by the fact that he still didn't make it to the last Quidditch match, Madam Pomfrey said nothing would allow him to leave the hospital.

And in order to get rid of the pestering Oliverwood, she even asked Filch to guard the door.

Without him as a Seeker, Gryffindor's morale was extremely low, and he was beaten by Ravenclaw.

Cho caught the Golden Snitch in the seventh minute of the match, and they simply didn't have time to score.

At the end of the match, they were tied for first place with Slytherin, who had lost three games in a row...... Countdown.

At the time, Professor McGonagall's face was unsightly and terrifying.

The young wizard also said that he saw Professor McGonagall taking Wood to the Astronomy Tower...... It seems that he wants to hang him on the highest place of the castle for some reflection.

However, it was eventually confirmed that this was a rumor...... In fact, Professor McGonagall went back to her office after the game and never came out again.

……

And just like that, the time soon came to the last day before the holiday.

That evening, everyone went to the year-end banquet.

When Kyle and the others arrived at the auditorium, it was already full. The auditorium was decorated in yellow and black representing Hufflepuff to celebrate their second year in a row. On the wall behind the guest of honor stands a huge banner depicting Hufflepuff badgers.

The Quidditch Champion added a number of points, allowing them to overtake Slytherin in the last minute to become number one.

The Great Hall was bustling with activity, and everyone was looking forward to the rest of the holiday, until Dumbledore arrived, and the noise gradually subsided.

"Ah, another year has passed......"

At the dinner table, Kyle didn't bother to listen to what Dumbledore had to say.

He wondered if Hufflepuff would win the final House Cup this year.

Dumbledore didn't let him wait long......

"Now, we will start with the Academy Cup award ceremony, and the specific scores of each house are as follows:

Fourth, Gryffindor, 410 points.

Third place, Ravenclaw, 436 points.

Second place, Slytherin, 495 points.

1st place, Hufflepuff, 500 points! ”

The Hufflepuff table erupted in thunderous cheers and stamping, but Kyle didn't celebrate, he knew it ......well This is certainly not the final result.

"yes, yes, good job, Hufflepuff." Dumbledore said, "However, several recent events must also be taken into account. ”

The auditorium became very quiet, and Cedric's smile narrowed a little.

Dumbledore cleared his throat:

"I still have some points to assign, let me see......

"First, Mr. Kyle Chopper......"

Kyle was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that the first one was himself.

“…… With his excellent herbal ability, he helped the academy solve the problem of lack of potion materials, and also helped find the lost precious items, for which I rewarded Hufflepuff House with 50 points! ”

The Hufflepuff students were ecstatic, and a few people who knew Kyle well, such as Cedric and Mikel, danced excitedly.

But Kyle doesn't laugh at all.

Potion materials?

No wonder when he went to the forbidden area again, he didn't even see the scum that bit the kale......

"Second, Mr. Ron Weasley...... He won one of the best games at Hogwarts in many years, and I'm rewarding Gryffindor House with 50 points for it! ”

This cheer came to Gryffindor's side, and Ron's face turned red like a sun-dried carrot.

Percy was shouting to the other prefects, "It's my brother, you know!" My youngest brother has successfully passed Professor McGonagall's giant chessboard formation! ”

It was not easy for everyone to calm down.

"Third ......"

Immediately afterward, Dumbledore added fifty points each to Hermione and Harry.

Gryffindor has risen a full 150 points, and they are now at 560 points, just over Hufflepuff.

That's how they went from last place to win the House Cup?!

After a brief silence, the cheers at the Gryffindor table nearly toppled the enchanted ceiling.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione stood up and cheered, and the Weasley brothers stood on a stool waving their hats and facing Kyle, smirking smirk.

"That means!" Dumbledore had to roar loudly to cover the thunderous cheers. "We need to make some small changes to the décor here."

He clapped his hands, and in an instant, the yellow dangling ribbons turned bright red, the black ones turned gold, and the huge Hufflepuff badger disappeared, replaced by a majestic Gryffindor lion.

After a few days, Professor McGonagall finally smiled for the first time in a long time.

But just as she was about to shake Professor Sprout's hand......

"Bang bang bang!"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the Great Hall, and then seven gray-haired old wizards pushed the door open and walked in.

The one at the front was still holding a delicate box in his hand.

He looked at the lively Great Hall and said with a smile, "Thank you Merlin, Hogwarts hasn't had a holiday yet, and it seems that we arrived in time." ”
