Chapter 779 Swimming
Ever since he knew he had to learn how to swim in order to pass the second race, Harry wanted to skip the race.
He can't swim!
However, he still restrained this unreliable thought.
Escape?
Wouldn't that be the same as Ron?
You must never do that kind of thing!
Then, he was pulled by Cedric to the Black Lake for special training.
Looking at the dark lake water, Harry immediately became scared.
"Sed..." Harry's teeth chattered, he was so cold, "Sed, Rick, I'm serious, you will definitely freeze to death if you go into the water, right?"
"Of course not." Cedric looked at him helplessly, "Man, believe me, underwater is much more complicated than you think. If you can't even swim, I mean, how are you going to grab it? Return your treasure?"
Harry was about to cry, "But I..."
He stretched out his hand and touched the lake water, and his whole body trembled.
Cedric could only encourage him while instructing him to do warm-up exercises.
He knows what that feels like.
The cold air, the lake water that freezes the heart, as long as you see it, every cell in your body will scream and start to refuse uncontrollably.
What a nightmare.
While soaking in the cold lake water, Harry almost cried. He actually felt that Cedric was even more evil than Aunt Petunia.
At least she wouldn't let him go to the swimming pool on such a cold day...
God, he must have been cursed this year to think that Aunt Petunia was a good person.
After ten minutes of soaking, Harry felt that he could no longer do it. At this moment, he saw the extremely picky Beauxbatons witch.
It's Hibiscus.
"What is she here for?" Harry said angrily, "Come to criticize the Black Lake in our school for not being grand enough?"
Harry didn't have any good impressions of this girl. She had been fussy about the food in the country and the decorations in Hogwarts.
In Harry's opinion, the craftsmanship of the house elves was as delicious as fairy delicacies. Gold and silver jewelry could be seen everywhere in Hogwarts Castle, which was as gorgeous as a royal palace.
Beauxbatons couldn't be more beautiful than here!
Furong, she is just finding fault!
"Oh, that's a powerful person." Cedric nodded towards Fleur who was about to enter the water, and said to Harry seriously, "Harry, you have to admit this."
Harry stared at him angrily, feeling that Cedric was also confused by Fleur's beauty.
"You must think that she is beautiful in my heart as well." Cedric showed a strange smile.
"Isn't it?" Harry asked, "Your eyes are shining!"
Cedric was amused by him, "Harry, you are thinking too much. Really, I think Qiu is the most suitable for me. Others, well, I mean, maybe Fleur is beautiful, but not my type." .”
Harry looked at him with disdain, feeling that this guy was just telling the truth.
"Oh, seriously Harry, you can't ignore her hard work just because she's beautiful." Cedric said, "You can't look at her from this angle."
Harry thought to himself, aren't you still saying good things about her? Sure enough, he was fascinated by Furong, right?
Suddenly, he felt worthless for Qiu, that beautiful and mysterious oriental girl. He had always been attracted to her, but it was a pity that the famous girl had her own lover.
Cedric didn't notice his anger, but said, "Now, how long do you think you can hold on?"
Harry was still thinking about Fleur and Qiu, and was a little confused when he heard this, "How long, how long?"
Cedric asked enthusiastically, "Yeah, how long, I mean, winter swimming?"
Harry looked at Ced with a strange expression and said hesitantly, "Maybe, maybe..."
"That girl has lasted for a month." Cedric sighed, "Robert and I saw it with our own eyes. You know Krum, right? He only lasted three weeks, but Fleur, tsk tsk."
He shook his head, looking very amazed, "She spent the whole Christmas vacation swimming in the winter. I can say that she can swim half of the lake now even without using magic spells."
Harry was a little unconvinced and shouted, "I can swim the entire lake!"
Cedric laughed out loud, "Harry, your expression is so funny, okay man, I don't mean anything else, but I still want to say that swimming a lake is not something you can just say, you need to persist, you need to Perseverance requires determination.”
Harry didn't believe it. It was just swimming in a lake. How difficult could it be?
"Don't look at how critical she always is." Cedric said, "She really has the capital to look down on others. If you had half the perseverance she has, she would probably look down upon you."
Harry didn't believe his nonsense!
I just swam under the water.
He was going to tell this guy who was stunned by Furong today that a circle of black lake was nothing at all!
However, within three days, Harry really knelt down.
He suddenly realized one thing, the competition was not something that could be done with enthusiasm!
No matter how much passion he had, it was all broken into pieces in front of Swimming!
Not surprisingly, Harry skipped class.
Did he really despair of himself and swim around the Black Lake?
He can't even swim 100 meters now!
Not to mention swimming half of the lake like Hibiscus.
Although he was very reluctant to admit it, he had to admire Fleur.
Compared with her, he was like an incompetent and angry little kid without any talents.
After going around in a circle, Harry discovered to his dismay that he was really a brat as Fleur said.
This is really a desperate thing.
Depressed, Harry could only run to the library to look up books. Although he could ask Hermione directly, he suddenly didn't want to do that.
He wants to rely on his own efforts, even if he may fail, but he still wants to try, if he can solve this matter...
"Harry, what have you been doing recently?" Robert's face suddenly appeared in front of him, but it was crooked.
Why?
Crooked?
Harry jumped up from his seat, only to realize that he had fallen asleep at some point.
Robert looked at the books spread out on the table curiously, feeling a little helpless.
this……
"You're drooling..." Robert took advantage of Mrs. Filch's attention, took out his wand, and cleaned the book that was wet with Harry's saliva.
Harry sheepishly wiped the corners of his mouth with his robe, "Well, I'm sorry, I fell asleep."
Robert shrugged and continued to ask, "What are you doing? Or, what information are you looking for? Tell me, maybe I can help you?"
Harry was a little embarrassed, "Well... no need... I, I think I can definitely find it..."
He felt like he didn't believe what he said.
