Chapter 243 Dementor's Kiss
·
Nian Gao Pei Ma Tuan
The invisible magic power held Harry slowly falling like a fallen leaf. Dobby's Bludger seemed to have found an opportunity and aimed at his head again.
Hermione reacted quickly and quickly pulled out her wand and pointed it at the Bludger.
"Smashed to pieces!"
With a flash of red light, the Bludger exploded in the air and turned into fragments all over the sky.
Harry landed safely, but his poor Nimbus 2000 had flown to nowhere.
As the Dementors left, the dark clouds gradually dispersed and the heavy rain stopped. The sun filtered through from behind the clouds and sprinkled on the stadium and the auditorium.
Dumbledore turned away expressionlessly.He rarely acted like this, and the dementors' attacks on students for no reason had clearly touched his bottom line.
What made Glenn even more angry than the Dementors was Sirius's intrusion into the campus for no reason.
The Gryffindor players landed next to Harry. Harry let go of his hand in a coma, and a small golden ball flapped its wings and circled around him.
Only then did everyone realize that Harry had caught the Snitch before he passed out.
Mrs. Huo Qi blew the whistle in surprise, and Lee Jordan loudly announced the result of the game.
But in fact, this victory does not mean much. Soon, Hogwarts will be attacked by a basilisk, thus canceling this year's Quidditch Cup.
The little wizards returned to school together, and Glenn once again made a splash in front of the entire school - a third-year student could actually use his physical form of Patronus to easily drive away dozens of dementors.
In order to avoid being watched like a giant panda again, Glenn quickly pulled Qiu away before anyone could react, and went straight to the Whomping Willow.
At this time, no one would go looking for Harry's broom.
The two came to the Whomping Willow and saw scraps of wood scattered on the ground.
Glenn sighed slightly: "A good broom, just give it to the Whomping Willow to relieve your boredom."
"What to do with those hanging on the treetops?" Qiu sadly picked up the broom handle engraved with the word "Nimbus" and asked.
"I can try the Flying Charm." Glenn pulled out his wand and said, "But before that, we have to keep it quiet."
He pointed to a slightly larger stone on the ground and read:
"Transform quickly!"
The stone twisted and twisted, turning into a white tabby cat.
The civet cat walked briskly toward the root of the tree.
The Whomping Willow seemed to sense that something was approaching, and twisted its body, and the long branches whipped over, making a whistling sound.
Under Glenn's control, the little white cat was very agile and easily dodged the attack by virtue of its petite size, and successfully reached the tree trunk.
It straightened up and pressed its two front paws on a raised knot on the tree trunk.
At the same time, the Whomping Willow, which was arrogant just a second ago, suddenly fell silent.
Under Qiu's surprised gaze, Glenn waved his hand to cancel the transformation spell and recited the spell again.
"Broom fragments are flying!"
The tail of the broom stuck in the branches of the whomping willow and the scattered wood stubble floated into the air, then flew towards Glenn and landed on the ground in front of him.
Glenn conjured up a blanket and wrapped Random in it.
"Come on, let's go see Harry." He picked up the package and asked Qiu to leave.
When the two arrived at the school hospital, the ground was already covered with muddy footprints. It seemed that the Gryffindor team members had not even changed their clothes before they hurriedly sent Harry over.
Madam Pomfrey walked out of the office with an unhappy face, holding a cup of steaming hot chocolate in her hand, complaining: "These damn dementors actually attack innocent students!"
Harry had already changed into a hospital gown and was still unconscious.
Madam Pomfrey put the cup on the bedside and took out a large piece of chocolate from her pocket.
"When he wakes up, remember to tell him to eat these. I mean all of them, not a single bit left." She said angrily, "I'm going to find Professor Dumbledore, these dementors are too much!"
"Okay." Hermione nodded in agreement.
Madam Pomfrey's expression softened a little, and she turned around to find Dumbledore, but turned back halfway.
"By the way, if he wakes up, don't leave in a hurry. He still needs to stay here for one night and observe."
The Gryffindor players also left one after another. They were all still wearing wet uniforms and had to change quickly to avoid catching a cold.
They all saw Harry's nimbus fragments and expressed their regrets. Only Wood, who had low emotional intelligence, frowned, obviously worried about the next game.
Not long after, Harry woke up faintly and sat up.
Before he could say anything, Hermione picked up the hot chocolate and forced him to drink it in one go.
Fortunately, the cup had been sitting there for a while, otherwise Harry might have been burned into something.
"What happened..." Harry was interrupted by a large piece of chocolate mid-sentence.
Glenn looked at his embarrassed appearance with a smile and said, "It's a dementor, Harry."
Harry glanced at Hermione complainingly, chewed the chocolate in his mouth, and continued to ask: "Where are the others? Am I the only one who fainted?"
He said, looking at the other beds in the school hospital.
"Everyone else is fine..." Hermione hesitated and said honestly.
"Don't think too much." Glenn patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, you fainted not because of cowardice or weak willpower."
Harry asked dubiously: "Really?"
"Of course," Glenn nodded, "Dementors are a very special kind of thing. They feed on people's happiness and arouse the deepest fears in people's hearts. The reason why you fainted is just because you had a period of Just horrible memories that no one else has ever experienced."
Harry nodded thoughtfully.
"Speaking of which, I remember that the Dementor seemed to be near Harry's mouth just now, sucking his happiness?" Ron thought for a moment and asked.
"No." Glenn shook his head and looked serious, "That action is far more terrifying than sucking happiness. Wizards generally call it - the Dementor's Kiss..."
"kiss???"
Harry shuddered, obviously misunderstanding the meaning of this "kiss".
"It's not what you think." Glenn continued to explain, "This is not the kind of kiss that expresses love, but a kiss-like action. They will suck the person's soul out of the human mouth, leaving only The next empty shell. This feeling is even more terrifying than real death."
Not only Harry, but Qiu and the other two little ones also gasped.
Just thinking about an empty shell without a soul is enough to make people shudder...
Hermione reacted quickly and quickly pulled out her wand and pointed it at the Bludger.
"Smashed to pieces!"
With a flash of red light, the Bludger exploded in the air and turned into fragments all over the sky.
