Chapter 122: Who Can Get the Academy Cup!
Chapter 122: Who Can Get the Academy Cup!
It was a wonderful night.
The sky is full of stars.
Harry guessed that tomorrow must be a good day, a good day to go home from the holidays.
As soon as he walked out of the corridor, a dark shadow pressed down, it was Hagrid.
Hagrid looked remorseful.
"It's all about me, it's because I didn't find out that Quirrell is...... Mystery man, and I didn't understand until yesterday when I heard what Dumbledore told me, the man who gave me the dragon egg was that bastard Quirrell, if it weren't for me, how would he know how to put Lowe to sleep, he wouldn't have made it to the last room, and you wouldn't have almost died......" Hagrid's eyes were red.
Although it didn't happen in the original books, Harry tried to convince Hagrid that Snape might be stealing the Philosopher's Stone, and that the way to defeat Lowe was known, but Hagrid didn't believe it at all.
But Hagrid still blames himself for Harry's danger the other day.
Ah, good Hagrid.
However, Harry was curious about how Dumbledore had told Hagrid, how he almost died, it was too powerful.
Harry said, "It's none of your business, blame Dumbledore for not protecting me, you feel guilty, if you really think I'm in danger, then you can go and hammer Dumbledore, oh, lightly, your fist is bigger than his head." ”
Dumbledore was now changing into a clean robe and preparing to head to the Great Hall.
"Sneeze, sneeze......" Dumbledore rubbed his long nose, got a cold?
......
Hagrid choked, he respected Dumbledore the most, and certainly wouldn't beat him.
Harry said, "Since you don't want to beat him, then don't mention it, I haven't lost a single hair, don't cry anymore, you don't feel bad, I look uncomfortable." ”
Hagrid: "......"
Hagrid doesn't want to talk to you and throws a salted fish at you.
But remembering the purpose of today's visit, Hagrid decided to endure it.
He took out a thick booklet and flipped it open: "This is a photo of my former friends of your parents who contacted me and wanted to come, I don't think you have met your parents yet." ”
"Well, thank you. Harry thanked him, though he didn't need it.
casually flipped through a few times, it was indeed very similar to James, but Harry thought that he was much more handsome than him, looking at the photo of Harry's mother, Harry somewhat understood, why Snape would miss her until he died.
Very beautiful, school flower level.
Especially with those gentle eyes, Harry had a sense of intimacy just by looking at the photo.
......
......
The school auditorium, the year-end banquet, every year at this time, all the students of the school come.
The lower grades are naturally happy, and the seventh graders who graduated this year have a little hesitation on their faces because they are thinking about their future.
The auditorium was full of people.
The green and silver flags representing Slytherin House floated in the air in several columns.
Behind the podium hung this long banner with the Slytherin crest and a snake.
You can hear the students of their college the loudest.
Especially in the seventh grade, the pride and glory on their faces are so priptive that others can't look at them directly.
But this is not surprising.
Because this is the seventh year in a row that Slytherin has won the House Cup!
This means that the seventh graders have been receiving this honor since seven years ago, and this has been carried through their entire school life! This is enough to be used as a bragging capital to others.
And in the more than 1,000 years since Hogwarts was founded, there has never been a house so "arrogant".
Perhaps later, Hogwarts: A History of the School will record that Severus Snape was the only Headmaster to win the House Cup for seven consecutive years in more than a thousand years.
Dumbledore stood in the middle of the teacher's seat: "Students, another year has passed, some people are rushing towards their future, and some people have a long history of knowledge waiting for the summer vacation to digest...... We don't need to say too much, first of all, the Academy Cup award ceremony. ”
"So far, fourth, Gryffindor 312, third, Hufflepuff, 352, Ravenclaw 426, Slytherin 472. ”
The Slytherin table erupted in cheers and high-fives.
The sound of slapping the table can probably be heard from standing outside the school at Blackwater Lake.
"But......" Dumbledore lengthened his voice, "something has happened lately, and I think we should count it." ”
The students fell silent and looked at Dumbledore, the Slytherin students feeling a little uneasy.
Snape had never had a good face, so it was impossible to tell how he was feeling now.
Dumbledore looked around the hall, "First of all, I'm going to add sixty points to Miss Gryffindor's Granger, who passed Professor McGonagall's giant chessboard and won the best game of Hogwarts in years!"
The cheers of the Gryffindors nearly toppled the enchanted ceiling, and the stars above them seemed to tremble slightly.
Hermione's best friend can be seen looking at her adoringly, and this group of little girls has made Hermione an idol.
Hermione was surprised, of course she knew that all the rooms on the fourth floor were passed by Harry, why did this have to be counted on her head?
But she was very smart, and after thinking about it for a while, she understood that Dumbledore couldn't count all the points on Harry's head, so he could only give it to Hermione, who was acting with Harry.
"Second, I would like to add sixty points to Hufflepuff's Zhang Qiu, she not only has a beautiful appearance, but also has a noble spirit and a kind heart, and her soul is pure and dazzling. ”
"Wow. "Everyone didn't know what Zhang Qiu did to get so many points, but Dumbledore didn't say anything.
"Then, Harry Potter ...... He has made a great contribution to the school by protecting something extremely important with his ingenuity and bravery, so add 100 points to Gryffind's!"
The Gryffindor students excitedly snapped their fingers and counted, "We have as many points as Slytherin!"
The Year 7 student blushed, could he have seen Gryffindor win the House Cup in his final year?
And then they tickled in their hearts, what did Harry protect? Can you tell?
Unfortunately, Dumbledore didn't have that intention, so it was tragic for those who were very curious.
The duck to the beak flew, and this is the truest portrayal of the Slytherin students at this moment.
Harry didn't have to look up to know how dark their faces would be, and he thought as he ate on a piece of peach cream cake: I don't really want to stuff the house cup to Gryffindor, then the partiality is too obvious.
The Slytherin students looked at Old Deng with a look in their eyes, full of suspicion and resentment, but Dumbledore's image of fairness and justice for a long time prevented them from standing up and questioning Dumbledore.
The Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students were a little happy, they couldn't take the House Cup themselves, but they didn't let Slytherin take it.
The Gryffindor students have a new sense of hope, and they are so close to the throne.
......
The crowd was in a state of confusion, waiting for Dumbledley's verdict.
"Well, there's one last ......," said Deng Lao.
