Chapter 405 Malfoy and Harry

After leaving the corridor on the eighth floor, the two prepared to go back to the common room along the stairs.

But the next second, Kyle suddenly saw Professor McGonagall just walking out of the Gryffindor common room.

This is not surprising at first. Professor McGonagall is the Head of Gryffindor, so of course she will appear here.

But Kyle noticed that she was holding a beautiful broom in her hand.

The streamlined ash wood handle and the slightly raised birch branches at the tail all indicate its identity...

The fastest broomstick in the world, the Firebolt.

Professor McGonagall looked beaming, with an undisguised smile on her face.

"Good afternoon, Professor McGonagall." Kyle said, and Connor on the side also said hello.

"Good afternoon..." Professor McGonagall nodded and asked with a smile: "Have you seen Potter? I have good news to tell him."

"No." Kyle said, "We have just been practicing the Patronus Charm in the empty classroom and didn't notice what was going on outside."

"Okay, how's the progress?" Professor McGonagall looked at Connor.

She had already heard from some Hufflepuff students that the jellyfish Patronus on the Quidditch field last time was summoned by Kyle, so she naturally didn't bother to ask him.

"Not even close." Connor said, taking out her wand.

"Call the gods to protect you!"

A ball of silver light the size of a fist flew out of the wand and began to fly around Kangna.

"Oh, you have too high expectations for yourself." Professor McGonagall said in surprise, "For a fourteen-year-old student, being able to summon the prototype of the Patronus is an amazing achievement.

Also, you can’t just look at Kyle and think he’s not doing a good job, that’s not accurate. "

Professor McGonagall seemed to be in a really good mood. Not only did she fully acknowledge Connor, but she even made a little joke to comfort her.

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. The Patronus Charm will not appear in the exam, and it won't be used for the time being..."

Professor McGonagall said, "Professor Dumbledore has solved everything. Unless the traces of Sirius Black are confirmed, those dementors will never take the initiative to step into the castle again."

Connor nodded.

After Professor McGonagall left, she turned to look at Kyle and whispered: "It looks like we are going to have a fierce battle next week."

"Yeah." Kyle scratched his hair.

Professor McGonagall appeared in the Gryffindor common room with a Firebolt and asked for Harry, apparently to return the broom to him.

After all, with Professor McGonagall's obsession with the Quidditch Cup, if there was really something wrong with the broom, she wouldn't be so happy.

The two quickly returned to the common room and told the others what had happened.

The originally lively crowd suddenly fell silent, as if it were Snape's Potions classroom.

Especially Cedric and the team members...

Although they had already guessed that this would be the result, when the news was confirmed, they still felt a little at a loss.

So, Cedric took Kyle and ran to the court for extra practice.

Other members also went back to the dormitory and got their own broomsticks.

It's too cold outside, and the biting cold wind seems to penetrate every corner of the body. In this weather, even Wood, a training fanatic, doesn't want to stay outside.

But Hufflepuff has the warm-up badge provided by Kyle, so there is no need to worry about this problem.

From the afternoon until nearly evening, the Gryffindor team also came.

Now that many people know about the Firebolt, Wood has no intention of hiding it anymore.

They came here just to test this new broom. Of course, it is not ruled out that Wood means to show off... After all, Gryffindor has not defeated Hufflepuff even once in the past few years.

They did not compete for the right to use the stadium. They just occupied a space on the edge and used stones to replace the Golden Snitch for training.

Harry, who was riding a Firebolt, looked like a gust of wind. No matter how tricky the angle of the stone thrown by Wood was, it would be caught by Harry in the next second.

Even if several players throw it from different directions, not a single stone will hit the ground.

Gradually, the Hufflepuff players were no longer interested in training and would always glance aside subconsciously.

In the end, Cedric simply ended the training early.

Kyle carried his broom and walked out of the dark stadium side by side with Cedric.

The atmosphere was a bit gloomy.

They had heard about it before, but after seeing the speed of the Firebolt with their own eyes this time, they felt that their hope of winning was even slimmer.

"It doesn't matter..." Cedric tried to liven up the atmosphere, "The stone is different from the Golden Snitch. To be honest, even without the Firebolt, I can still accomplish what Potter just did... If you don't believe it, we can find a place Try it.

If I miss one, I'll treat everyone to Honeydukes candy, take your pick. "

"Of course we believe you, captain." Mikel suddenly laughed twice, "We were just... hungry, so we didn't want to talk."

"Yes, that's it..."

"Yeah, my stomach has been growling since just now..."

"I heard there is pudding today, I really want to have dinner quickly..."

The previous gloomy atmosphere seemed to disappear all of a sudden, and everyone walked into the castle talking and laughing.

The auditorium was as lively as ever, and by the time they came over after putting down the brooms, the Gryffindors had already arrived.

The Firebolt was placed in the middle of the dining table, with the sign facing up. Many people were watching and congratulating Harry on getting such an excellent broom to replace the Nimbus.

However, Malfoy seemed a little unhappy.

When Kyle walked into the hall, he happened to see him approaching Harry with his two followers.

"This broom has many special features, doesn't it." There was a hint of ill will in his eyes, "It's a pity that it doesn't have a parachute to prevent you from getting too close to a Dementor."

Crabbe and Goyle chuckled.

Harry ignored him and just talked to Fred next to him, which made Malfoy's face look very ugly.

Kyle watched from the side and suddenly felt a little funny.

Since the last time Harry was accidentally rescued by Malfoy, the two sides had not spoken to each other for a long time.

Kyle thought Malfoy would seize this incident to ridicule Harry, but he didn't. He seemed to regard saving Harry as a shame and didn't mention it at all.

This time, he came here to mock Harry for being afraid of Dementors.

Seeing that the other party ignored him, Malfoy snorted coldly, narrowed his gray eyes, and walked away.

But when he passed by Kyle, he still shouted in a loud voice: "I think you should invent a fall-proof robe. Gryffindor will definitely raise money to buy a set for their seeker..."

Then, without waiting for Kyle to answer, he walked to the middle of the other Slytherin team members.

They put their heads together, as if asking Malfoy whether the broom was a real Firebolt.
