Chapter 376 Gryffindor Vs. Hufflepuff

The fourth Quidditch match in February was between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff.

After returning from the Christmas holiday, Wood had been warning Harry and the others that this year's Hufflepuff should not be underestimated.

The day before the game, Wood was still in the common room to mobilize his players before the battle, and the Gryffindor students who had long known what kind of character the Quidditch captain was had already dispersed, leaving the common room to the members of the Quidditch team.

"They have a new captain and seeker this year, Cedric Diggory, who is a very scary opponent!"

Wood mentioned Hufflepuff's new captain and seeker again, "Although Hufflepuff lost to Ravenclaw at the end of November, it was because their team had not yet been fully integrated! You saw Hufflepuff's performance at that time, and the Ravenclaw that defeated us last year was just a narrow victory!"

Harry was not unfamiliar with Cedric. Last year, he had a very exciting performance in the duel club held by Lockhart.

Moreover, he is not only excellent in practical skills, but also highly praised in dealing with people. He has a good relationship with Fish. Many people think that he is one of the most outstanding students in Hufflepuff in the past hundred years.

Harry also watched the match between Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. It was indeed very different from the previous one. If it weren't for the fact that several novice players were slightly inexperienced in the game and were confused by the complicated tactics of Ravenclaw, and Cedric seemed to be in a low state at the time, Ravenclaw had no hope of winning.

Although Wood had said it many times before, what he said was reasonable after all. In addition, if they didn't follow Wood's words, he would definitely talk endlessly, so Harry and other boys nodded gently and agreed with Wood's statement.

The girls' focus was slightly different...

"And he is very tall and handsome, isn't he?"

Just as Wood repeatedly emphasized that Cedric was not easy to deal with, Angelina suddenly interrupted, and then giggled with Erica and Katie.

"Well, of course he can't compare with our Fish." Erica added.

"He's also strong and doesn't like to talk."

Katie also spoke up, and they giggled again.

Wood was very dissatisfied with the playful attitude of the three female chasers, and even more dissatisfied with the Weasley twins who had a crush on Angelina.

"He doesn't like to talk because he's too stupid to form a sentence." Fred said impatiently: "I don't know what you're worried about, Oliver, Hufflepuff is just a piece of cake. The last time we played against them, Harry caught the Golden Snitch in about five minutes, remember?"

However, Wood still looked nervous. To be precise, he basically looked like this whenever it came to Quidditch.

"Haven't I said it many times?! Hufflepuff is different now!" Wood shouted, his eyes bulging slightly. "Diggory has organized a strong lineup! He is an excellent seeker! I'm afraid you all have to realize this! We must not relax! We must concentrate!"

This terrible look made the twins forget to be jealous, and Fred quickly comforted: "Oliver, calm down!"

He raised his hands in front of him in a panic and pressed Wood twice.

"We will take Hufflepuff very seriously... very seriously."

Fearing that Wood would continue to be crazy, Fred repeated and emphasized, while George and Harry nodded quickly on the side. The girls stopped laughing and huddled together like three hamsters, staring at Wood with tears in their eyes.

Wood finally calmed down a little, but he still chattered with the team members about the warnings he had given countless times during this period of time, as well as the tactical arrangements for tomorrow.

Harry and others listened to Wood muttering there in distress, and their expressions were very painful.

When Wood mentioned Cedric for the sixth time and was going to talk about the tactics for the eighth time, everyone finally couldn't help it. With the twins shouting, the rest of the team members and Ron, who was on the bench, rushed forward, pressed Wood to the ground, and tied him up with a rope.

George took out a handkerchief and blocked Wood's mouth tightly, and then, together with Fred, carried the captain who was still struggling back to the boys' dormitory.

After the farce ended, Gryffindor soon ushered in the second day of the game. This time, Fish didn't go with them.

The experience of watching Quidditch twice was not so wonderful. In addition, Harry had already learned the Patronus Charm, and there were Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall, so Fish was naturally too lazy to protect Harry again.

If you have that time, you might as well sleep in the dormitory!

In such cold weather, is it uncomfortable to warm yourself by the fireplace? Why run out to blow the cold wind?

Fish lay by the fireplace in the common room and squinted his eyes comfortably.

(=￣ω￣=)

Besides him, Hermione Granger also did not go to the game. Instead, she stayed in the common room, sitting quietly next to Fish, and writing her heavy homework seriously.

This doesn't seem right...

Hermione should have gone to the game, but she was a different Hermione.

Fish didn't know the specific reason, but the cat knew that Hermione could appear in different places at the same time, because he had found similar situations with Percy before...

The first time he noticed this situation was when Fish smelled Percy's scent in two places at the same time. Out of curiosity, he threw a wild mark to one of the Percys, and then about half an hour later, the mark suddenly teleported to another place, and there was another Percy in front of Fish.

The curious kitten naturally would not let go of such an interesting thing, and immediately pestered Percy and asked him endlessly. Percy was pestered and had no choice but to tell him that he was helped by Professor McGonagall. If Fish wanted to know, he could go directly to Professor McGonagall.

As a result, when Fish ran to ask Professor McGonagall, the answer he got was that this method could only be used for learning. If Fish was sure to take all the elective courses in the future, Professor McGonagall agreed to tell him what was going on in advance...

However, how could Fish agree? ! The kitten immediately lost interest in this matter and decided never to ask what was going on from then on.

The price of knowing this is to take five elective courses. He must be crazy to want to know!

And someone actually invented a way to allow people to take more courses...

The person who came up with this method must be crazy!

Percy and Hermione are also crazy!

Just as Firth was leisurely warming himself by the fire in the dormitory, the match between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff also began.

Although the cat did not appear on the Quidditch field, a big black dog appeared quietly on the sidelines.

Sirius Black did not look at Harry Potter flying in the sky, but quickly scanned the audience... mainly the Gryffindor square.

Unfortunately, he did not see the expected figure. Firth did not come to watch the game today, which made Sirius's plan to sneak into the Gryffindor dormitory once again come to nothing.

"Wow!"

At this moment, a cry of surprise came from the Gryffindor audience. A fat boy who looked silly slid under the seat after looking at Sirius.

"Neville, are you okay?"

Ron, who was standing by, helped him up.

"No, no, no... unknown!"

Neville raised his shaking hand, pointed at Sirius standing on the sidelines, and said tremblingly.

Ron looked towards the sidelines along his finger, but saw nothing.

"What's the ominous sign? Are you seeing things?"

"Impossible! I must have seen something ominous just now!" Neville said firmly, and then he started to cry, "Am I going to die? Professor Trelawney said that seeing something ominous means death is not far away..."

"Don't be silly, didn't Harry also say that he saw something ominous? Isn't he still alive and well now?" Ron curled his lips and comforted, "Haven't you noticed yet? The professor of Divination likes to scare people, don't take her words too seriously."

Neville was slightly relieved, and as the game became more and more intense, he gradually forgot about it.

After a hard fight, Harry finally caught the Golden Snitch before Cedric, and the Gryffindor students immediately fell into a sea of ​​joy. Everyone cheered and carried all the members of the Quidditch team to the castle.

The conversation between Neville and Ron was faintly heard in the crowd.

"Oh! Oops! I seem to have lost the note with the password!"

"Don't worry, Neville, there are so many of us here, we can't lock you out..."

As everyone left the Quidditch field, Sirius once again emerged from the woods next to him. He glanced at the crowd going away, then turned around and jumped into the area where the Gryffindor students had just stayed.

Not long after, a big black dog left the field with a note full of words in its mouth, wagging its tail.

Recommendation ticket monthly ticket

In the original book, because the first game became the Lions vs Badgers, this game was originally the Lions vs Eagles.

And according to the fact that every year it starts with the Lion vs Snake and ends with the Lion vs Eagle, the schedule should be fixed under normal circumstances.

So I arranged the normal schedule according to the original book.

Lion College vs Snake College

Eagle College vs Badger College

Eagle College vs Snake College

Lion College vs Badger College

Badger College vs Snake College

Lion College vs Eagle College

The order should be like this, but the time cannot be determined, because the specific time varies from year to year. The last game is sometimes played after the final exam, sometimes before the exam, and this year it was played after Easter.

Overall, the schedule of Lion College and Snake College is more favorable. There are no consecutive games, especially Lion College. After the first game, they can rest for three months, and they can see the games of the other three colleges in the middle. There is enough time for targeted training, and the time interval between the second and the last game is also long.

However, resting for too long may also affect the state of the game, so there are pros and cons, but in general, the schedule of Lion College and Snake College is easier.
