As Cedric thought, for the next two weeks, he was always challenged by different people at DA meetups.

But the good news is that Fred and George, who have been the most uneasy to his heart, have not moved so far...... Of course, this also means that he must continue to watch out for them.

Cedric also found another problem, as Quidditch training needed to avoid bad weather as much as possible, and it was difficult to determine the time of their party on a certain day.

But they soon had a way to deal with it.

Hermione was inspired by Kyle's reward for staying in the Room of Requirement and crafted a batch of fake gold coins with the Transformation Charm.

As soon as the number on the main coin changes, the other coins will change as well, so they can tell the others exactly when the next meeting will be.

It's quite convenient.

Fred and George found it useful to cheat as well, but their idea was quickly discovered by Cedric, and then it was gone......

Cedric would never allow them to do that, but Fred and George just had that idea.

After all, the things used to cheat are fundamentally different from those prank products before them, and once they are discovered, I am afraid it will be more than just deducting points and confining them.

They didn't want to be expelled from school, that would be a shame, and it might have an impact on the Weasley Joke Shop.

The shops opened by outstanding graduates are much better than those of students who have been expelled.

"This is for you." During breakfast once, Cedric handed Kyle a fake gold coin.

"Although you haven't been there lately, I think it's better to give you one."

Kyle took it and felt it in his hand, "This is the goblin coin?" ”

"To be precise, it should be the gold goblin copied with the Copy Charm." Cedric said, "Leprechaun's gold only lasts for half a day, and that would extend its existence to about a year." ”

"Not a bad idea." Kyle said.

"There's no way, we're too familiar with the Replication Spell, so we naturally know what it does." Cedric said with a smile, as if he thought back to the scene a few years ago, when they were desperately trying to replicate maps in some empty classroom.

Kyle smiled as well, and then put away the fake gold coins, "Are you going to party next?" ”

"Probably not this week." Cedric shook his head and said, "Gryffindor have their first Quidditch match on Saturday, and they won't have time for that night. ”

"yes, I think that's the case." Kyle said.

Quidditch is about to begin, and this is the first in a year, and everyone is taking it seriously, including the professor.

In recent times, broomsticks have been flying over the Quidditch pitch almost every day...... It's either Gryffindor or Slytherin.

Cedric's last time he went to apply for the right to use the stadium, and Ms Hodge said that the use of the stadium for the coming week had already been pre-leased by Professors McGonagall and Snape.

Although this did not meet the regulations, the two professors came to her in person, and she could not refuse.

Everyone in the team understands this.

If they had Hufflepuff for Saturday's game, it would probably be Professor Sprout who would have gone to Ms. Hooch.

But that's fine, it's a holiday.

……

As the match drew closer, so did the tension between Gryffindor and Slytherin.

It doesn't matter who it is, and it doesn't matter what grade it is, as long as they meet each other in the hallway, they will inevitably taunt each other.

Warrington also makes a big deal in the auditorium about knocking Harry off his broomstick, but Kyle has reservations.

Let's not talk about whether Warrington has this strength or not, their broom is not at the same level.

Halo 2001 wants to catch up with the fire bolts? Unless there's a dragon pushing it behind it.

But it seems to be a Slytherin tactic, and they are always happy to attack every Gryffindor player, and in addition to Harry, Ron is also their main target.

Millison, Pansy, and Malfoy also rehearsed a small stage play to act out the scene after Ron leaked the ball.

It also makes Ron nervous every day.

And just like that, November finally came.

The weather was getting colder and colder, and the wind outside the castle was like a knife, and the cheeks were painful, but inside the castle it was very hot.

Because today is the day when the match of Quidditch begins.

Early in the morning, Kyle, Connor, and Cedric leave the common room and head towards the auditorium.

They all wore golden-red scarves with lion drawings on them, which also showed that they were supporting Gryffindor.

Today's auditorium was much more lively than usual, and it was full of people.

In addition to the fact that there is another reason because of the upcoming competition......

That is, at the front of the auditorium, where the teacher's seat was, there was a row of brand-new, shiny new brooms.

There are thirty brooms in total, each brand new, and the smooth and smooth broom handle still smells of pine oil.

"Oh my God, this is a sweep of eleven stars!"

In front of the teacher's chair was a large crowd of people, looking at the brooms with longing on their faces.

"I've seen it in the Quidditch boutique in Diagon Alley, and it's a new broom that only came out this year."

"It's beautiful......"

"With so many broomsticks, are they going to be given to all the Quidditch players?"

"Ahem, ahem."

While everyone was eagerly discussing...... Suddenly there was a soft cough from the crowd.

Umbridge didn't know when she appeared in the Great Hall, and when they saw her, everyone immediately dispersed and sat down at their tables as quickly as possible, but their eyes were still glued to the row of broomsticks.

Umbridge coughed again, drawing everyone's attention.

She walked to the front and said with a smile, "Yes, don't doubt it, these brooms are yours." ”

As if someone had told them that Christmas had arrived early, the auditorium burst into cheers and screams.

Umbridge had to hold his wand to his throat to make his voice drown out the cheers.

"As a senior investigator at the Ministry of Magic, I've noticed that the school uses old brooms from thirty years ago.

"The Ministry of Magic believes that more and more students at Hogwarts are getting injured in Quidditch every year, and the biggest reason is the aging of the broomsticks.

"So the Ministry of Magic decided to replace Hogwarts with a new, better batch of broomsticks for use in Quidditch matches and flying lessons."

"Oh!"

The Great Hall resounded with cheers, mixed with praise for the Ministry of Magic.

Umbridge was pleased with the student's performance, and she turned to look at Professor McGonagall who were sitting next to her, with an undisguised smug look on her face.

But Professor McGonagall was equally pleased, not only did she not care about Umbridge's provocation, but even nodded at her kindly.

Not seeing the chagrin and anger on the other party's face made Umbridge a little uncomfortable.

"Did you do it?" Connor subconsciously looked at Kyle.

She didn't think the Ministry of Magic would spend such a large sum of money on new broomsticks for no reason, and Umbridge couldn't have cared if the students would get hurt.

"Hmm...... I can't afford that much money. Kyle blinked, lowering his voice, "I just made a small suggestion." ”
