Chapter 27 The Quidditch match officially begins

As November approaches, the weather in the Scottish Highlands becomes very cold.

The mountains around Hogwarts were obscured by heavy gray clouds, the mountain tops were covered with thick white snow, and the lake surface was as cold and hard as a whole steel plate. Every morning, the ground is covered with frost.

In such a season, the Quidditch season begins.

On the Quidditch pitch, gamekeeper Hagrid, wrapped in a long moleskin coat, wearing rabbit fur gloves and huge beaver fur boots, was working tirelessly to defrost his broomstick; outside the pitch, On the lawn, the captain of the Quidditch team gathered the players together and explained their respective tactics in a low voice.

However, there were two Gryffindor batters who were not doing their job properly. They did not listen to their captain's instructions on the lawn, nor did they warm up carefully before the game. Instead, they sneaked into the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's office.

At this time, a pair of red-haired twins were sitting in front of Dracula's desk, looking at their Defense Against the Dark Arts professor who was leaning on the back of his chair with piercing eyes.

"Professor, today is our first Quidditch match this year. You must go and watch it!" the twins said loudly.

Dracula raised his eyes and glanced at the sunny weather outside the window, curled his lips secretly, and casually said:

"I'm not interested in Quidditch. Go and play it yourself. Come on."

"Professor!" Fred slammed the table anxiously, "Today's competition involves forty galleons of yours, and your most admired student Harry will also appear in this competition. Are you really not interested? "

Dracula looked at Fred's action of slapping the table and the red wine on the desk that was shaken to the edge of the table and almost fell, and raised his hand slightly.

Immediately afterwards, Fred floated uncontrollably, floated to the top of the office, and hung on a chandelier.

"Intention to damage the property of the professor's office, this is the punishment you deserve." Dracula casually picked up the goblet that moved to the edge of the desk, took a sip of the bright red wine, and said casually.

George glanced at his good brother hanging on the chandelier, secretly took back his hand that was pressed on the table, and took a step back.

"Professor, are you really so cruel?" George changed his method and began to show off his acting skills towards Dracula.

He half-knelt in front of Dracula with tears streaming down his face, and said miserable words with runny nose and tears.

"Poor Harry has been living in the house of his mean aunt since he was a child. He has never seen his parents. It was not until he came to the wizarding world that he finally had an adoring professor as his emotional sustenance! Quidditch without you watching the game The game is incomplete for Harry!"

Dracula's mouth twitched slightly. Looking at George who was struggling to do his best, he felt that it was too cold and heartless not to say anything anymore...

"Okay, there's no need to cry anymore. I see you're having a hard time acting." He interrupted George's fake crying and said, "I'll go watch the game."

Upon hearing Dracula's affirmative answer, George immediately retracted his sad face and showed an expression of surprise. Fred, who was hanging from the chandelier, also gave him a thumbs up.

However, it is not Dracula's style to admit defeat like this. He later added:

"But George Weasley stained the floor of the professor's office and deserves punishment as well."

With that said, Dracula also hung George on the chandelier, hanging side by side with Fred. Two red-haired boys wearing gold and red Gryffindor Quidditch uniforms hung side by side from the ceiling, like two identical string dolls.

Then Dracula ignored the two living treasures, opened a pure black parasol, walked out of his office, and stood under the long-lost clear sunshine.

The two Weasleys waited until the professor left the office, sighed in relief, and then winked at each other.

"Wow, it's so thrilling!" George exclaimed, "If I hadn't been smart, I would have finished this time! Why did we come to provoke Professor Dracula?"

"Don't be stupid, George!" Fred retorted loudly, "Have you forgotten? We spent all our Galleons on a bet with Slytherin's big dog! If Harry can't catch the Golden Snitch, , then we will have to completely lose everything.”

At this point, the two were just about to fight as usual when they suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Wait, we seem to be in trouble!" George suddenly interrupted Fred's actions.

"What's wrong?" Fred asked belatedly.

"Wake up, Fred! We're still hanging from the chandelier!!"

…

In today's Quidditch match, the members of the Gryffindor team were full of confidence.

Because they have a secret weapon - Harry Potter!

After several weeks of training, Harry was about to participate in his first competition. The game was Gryffindor vs. Slytherin. If Gryffindor wins, they will move up to second place in the House Cup Championship.

As Gryffindor's secret weapon, Wood decided to keep Harry's participation strictly a secret. Therefore, almost no one saw Harry playing Quidditch.

But the news of Harry's role as Seeker still leaked out.

Because of this, some admirers of the savior came to him and told him that he would play well, and some old enemies of Slytherin told him that they would hold up the mattress and follow him below to prevent him from falling. Come down...

Harry didn't know which was worse, nor did he know that the Weasley twins were also responsible for the leak of this news——

In order to get the Slytherin bosses to bet with them, the twins secretly revealed the name of the savior Harry Potter and declared that Harry would catch the Golden Snitch in his first game and end the entire game!

The Slytherin students were extremely happy when they heard this, and they didn't think that a first-year freshman who had only been trained for two months was a secret weapon. They all placed bets on Harry falling off his broomstick. .

As for the culprit, the Weasley twins didn't rush onto the field until just before the game.

The two of them hung on the chandelier in Dracula's office for a long time. It wasn't until they thought about the Quidditch game that they finally thought that they could use the Flying Curse to call the broomstick at the door of the office, and then ride the broomstick from the chandelier. Fly up and down.

Fred and George undoubtedly received a lot of harsh criticism from Wood.

Finally, amid the laughter of the Weasley brothers, Wood's serious warnings and passionate cheers, and the cheers of the stadium audience, Harry followed Fred and George out of the locker room, and then walked towards the cheers. of the stadium.

The Quidditch match is finally about to begin!
