Chapter 31 Equipment cannot make up for the gap in strength

After Halloween, Hermione gradually forgave Ron and Harry, and the relationship between the three was no longer so stiff.

Aaron also left an indelible impression on Hermione's heart because of his coming forward this time, but he didn't know this. In his opinion, the revolutionary friendship between the two was still at the stage of good friends and was still far from sublimation. Very far, far less important than signing in to become stronger.

It is worth mentioning that Harry and Ron's views on Snape have also changed a bit. Maybe he is not so annoying. After all, the head of Slytherin can save a Gryffindor before everyone else. The students can already explain the problem very well.

The next day, the auditorium.

Although it was breakfast time, the auditorium was obviously more lively than usual.

Because today is Planet Six, no, because the Quidditch season is about to begin, and the first game is Gryffindor versus Slytherin.

Harry sat at the dining table absent-mindedly. The plate was filled with exquisite food, but he had no appetite at all.

"Eat some toast! Eat it quickly."

"Ron's right, Harry, you'll have to do something big later!"

"But I'm not hungry," Harry said.

Snape walked over with a playful smile on his face, "Good luck today, Potter.

As the famous Harry Potter, I believe that a little Quidditch is a piece of cake for you, even if your opponent is Slytherin. "

After Snape said this, he walked to the teacher's desk, leaving the three of them looking at each other.

"He still hasn't changed, he's so yin and yang." Ron snorted a little unhappily, "He talks as if Slytherin is sure to win."

"Don't say that, Aaron's flying skills are still very good." Harry said, today is his first game, he is already nervous enough, not to mention that this time his opponent is a flying talent that is not weaker than him. people.

"So what?" Ron was still unconvinced, but his voice was a little softer than before, "Fred and George also inquired about Slytherin's training, and the news they got was that Aaron had never participated. train."

"No way!" Harry's eyes widened in disbelief, "Could he be training secretly?"

"No, I asked specifically. Wood attaches great importance to this Quidditch match. He will send people to the field almost every day to pay attention to the staff ratio and training situation of each academy.

Before today, the original members of Slytherin were still active on the training ground, and the Seeker was still Terrence. However, for some reason, they were indeed training very hard, much harder than before. "

Harlin thought for a while and felt a little relieved, "It seems like Aaron may have temporarily joined the academy team."

"No." Ron patted his chest, "So be confident. No matter how good his flying talent is, he can't be your opponent after weeks of training."

"Is that so?" Harry's chest suddenly burst with confidence, and he felt his appetite increased a lot.

“I think it’s better not to make random guesses, your guesses may not be correct.

It’s not the first day you’ve met Aaron. Would he do something so uncertain? Hermione said suddenly, pouring a ladle of cold water on the flame of confidence in Harry's heart.

"Hermione!" Ron rolled his eyes, "You don't want to emulate other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige. Aaron hasn't participated in training for more than a month."

"I know I'm being blunt, but what about Snape?

Do you think Professor Snape would choose a random first-year student to be the Seeker? "Hermione asked. Harry and Ron were speechless for a moment, and their hearts became inexplicably heavy.

"Why don't Hermione ask Aaron how he has prepared for the Quidditch match in the past month or so?" Ron said weakly, "You have the best relationship with him. You might be able to tell if you ask. He told you."

"Ha!" Hermione revealed a hint of sarcasm, "Sometimes I really wonder if you are an idiot.

This kind of thing is a team secret no matter how you look at it. The game is about to start. If you ask me to find out the news, what is the difference between this and asking him to sell his teammates temporarily?

Harry, you are also a Seeker, do you think it is appropriate for me to do this? "

"Of course it's not appropriate," Harry said.

Ron's face became a little uneasy, and he said angrily: "I'm just a little curious, after all, it's about Gryffindor's honor."

At this moment, the sound of birdsong suddenly came, and Harry's owl Hedwig flew over with a long package and placed it in front of Harry's dining table.

"Email came early in the morning?" Hermione said in surprise.

"But I never have any mail!" Harry was even more surprised, wondering who sent him this mail. Would his uncle's family send him things?

Don't be ridiculous, their family wishes he would die outside and never go back.

"Open it first," Ron said, and then started to open the package.

After a moment, a beautiful flying broom appeared in front of the three people.

"It's not an ordinary broom, Harry, it's Nimbus 2000." Ron pointed to the 'Nimbus 2000' logo on the end of the broom, and the excitement on his face almost overflowed.

"But who gave it to him?" Harry murmured. At this moment, he suddenly thought of something. He turned to look at the teacher's desk, and as expected, he found Professor McGonagall smiling at him. He understood a lot in an instant.

When Snape saw the brand new broom, he couldn't help but frown. "Minerva, you are really generous. You just gave away a Nimbus 2000?"

"I can't compare to you! You did a good job of keeping it secret. I didn't even know you changed the seeker temporarily." Professor McGonagall retorted.

"Temporarily?" Snape smiled slightly. "The word is not very precise. Aaron joined the college team more than a month ago, not long after you made an exception and recruited Harry Potter into the college team."

McGonagall frowned. He didn't know this, but Aaron should be strong enough to make Snape pay so much attention to him, at least better than Terence.

But she looked at the Nimbus 2000 that she bought at a huge price, and her confidence was fuller.

Although equipment cannot determine everything, when the strength difference is not big, the side with better equipment can often have more advantages, and Harry Potter is the most talented in flying among the first-year Gryffindor students, and he can definitely make good use of this flying broom.

"No matter what, the champion of this Quidditch match is definitely Gryffindor." Professor McGonagall said confidently, and she must not lose in momentum.

"I'll wait and see!" Snape said coldly, and then walked towards Aaron.

Aaron was eating breakfast calmly, and suddenly found that the surroundings suddenly became quiet, and there was an extra figure in front of the table, so he put down the fork in his hand helplessly, "Professor Snape, do you know that it is very rude to suddenly appear behind someone while eating?"

"Harry Potter changed a Nimbus 2000. You'd better pay attention to me when you go to the game later. In case you lose..."

"No, I won't lose.

To give a simple example, even if a first-year student has an old wand in his hand, he is not the opponent of the prefect."

"Humph!" Snape raised his eyebrows, but he was relieved in his heart, "You are quite confident. I hope your performance on the field will not disappoint Slytherin!"

"Definitely not, I usually don't make promises easily, but I will definitely do what I promise." Aaron said lightly, his tone was not open to questioning.

Snape nodded in satisfaction and left the hall.

After Snape left, Draco came up to him, "Aaron, what you said just now was so domineering that it even frightened Professor Snape."

"Alas! There is no way. After all, I have been independent since I was a child." Aaron said with emotion, "My parents are away from home for a long time, and I am the one who greets guests at home.

After many times, I gradually learned the art of speaking.

In a nutshell, I speak to people in a human way and to ghosts in a ghost way."

Draco swallowed his saliva, "It's not easy for you."

"It's not easy, but who made me the only son?

Although I am reluctant, the glory of the Gaius family is for me to inherit and carry forward.

Aren't you the same?"

Malfoy lowered his head silently. While feeling inferior to him, he was also glad that he had a good birth and was the heir of the Malfoy family.

The pure blood among pure bloods, the pure blood inheritance that has never been broken for thousands of years is an unparalleled glory.

In other words, as long as they don't make any big mistakes, this honor can be passed on, but it is still a long way to go to reproduce the glory of the Malfoy family.

His great-grandfather passed this task to his grandfather, and his grandfather also passed this task to his father. Now his father seems to want to hand this task over to him.

Thinking of this, Draco suddenly shuddered. No, this curse must be ended in his generation.

"What's wrong with you? Are you not sick?"

"No, I just suddenly figured out something." Draco said.

"It's good that you are not sick. Do me a small favor. I will play in the game later. I ask you to take care of Abe for me." Aaron said and took Abe out from under the table.

"This..." Draco looked at the cute Abe and nodded blankly.
