Chapter 856: Is it illegal to show affection?

Not long after the opening ceremony ended, Russell, as the host, stood up to introduce the two teams playing tonight.

The red and white Canadian team came flying at full speed from another mountain on broomsticks.

The starlight effects of the magic projection chased them, making them look like bright meteors in the darkness.

A breathtakingly huge fireball suddenly fell into the stands. Even though the fans knew it was fake, they all subconsciously raised their hands.

There was a lot of hot steam coming out from the middle of the stands, and a red meteorite could be vaguely seen lying quietly on the snow.

A strong light came from the cracks in the meteorite, and in a flash of dazzling light, another white, green and red team in the game was blasted out.

Their appearance immediately made the fans in the stands excited.

Although Canada is also a strong team, there is still a big gap between them and the Bulgarian team which has the most hope of winning the championship.

"Oh - Victor! Look here!" Several female fans in the VIP stands stood up and shouted loudly.

Hermione in the front row looked at Vincent next to her with a strange look in her eyes. "Viktor? He seems to be much more popular than you."

The Bulgarian team had a bye in the first round of qualifiers, and their second qualifying round match coincided with the execution day of Peter Pettigrew.

Although she usually paid attention to Quidditch, what interested her about Krum seemed to be the name "Viktor".

In Latin, Vincent and Viktor both mean conqueror and victor.

Vincent blinked his eyes innocently, "He's a professional basketball star, so he must be more popular than me."

Hermione glanced slightly towards the largest close-up screen.

Krum has an unforgettable hooked nose, dark hair and thick eyebrows. She is tall and strong, giving her a particularly honest look.

"Victor! I love you!" The fanatical female fan in the VIP stands actually confessed loudly.

Hermione quickly retracted her gaze upon hearing the voice and looked back at Vincent, "Being too popular is not a good thing. They are much crazier than Lockhart's fans."

Although Krum is not as handsome as Lockhart, he is young enough, strong enough, and his fame is earned from the arena.

It seems that people with names meaning conqueror and winner are particularly capable. If she was still the ignorant little witch in the second grade, she would probably fall in love with such a sunny and cheerful big boy.

Vincent recalled the scene when Lockhart held a fan meeting in Diagon Alley and looked back at the group of fanatical female fans who were still loudly expressing their love.

"That's understandable. After all, there are only a few entertainment programs in the wizarding world. Besides, I heard from Ron that he is very capable. He seems to be the 'world's number one seeker'."

Hermione glanced at the close-up screen, and saw Krum looking towards the VIP stands.

He waved his hands vigorously, as if responding to the fans' enthusiasm.

An enthusiastic female fan quickly covered her chest and said, "Oh - Victor, he is saying hello to me!"

The female fans around her rolled their eyes at her.

How dare you fantasize with this appearance?

Krum's eyes had just moved away, but he looked back suddenly.

He stared straight at the VIP stands, as if something was attracting him.

"Look!" The female fan stood up and screamed, "Victor is looking at me!"

The female fans around her pushed her back.

"Shame on you! Viktor is clearly looking at me!"

"It's obviously me!"

"Get lost, are you worthy of this kind of beauty?"

Just as they were about to fight, Krum reluctantly withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the stands elsewhere.

Although the female fans did not come to blows, they were still arguing fiercely.

"Victor is staring at me in a daze, you guys should just forget about it."

"What's so good about you, an old woman? If he wants to see something, he should look at me!"

"Heh - besides being younger than me, what else is better than me? Over 200 pounds?"

Hermione, who witnessed the whole thing, lowered her head, gently twisted the hem of her skirt with her fingers, and an embarrassed blush appeared on her face.

When she was in the naive second grade, she had briefly been Lockhart's little fan girl.

The female fan's behavior reminded her of that dark history that she couldn't bear to look back on, but she quickly raised her head again and said, "Fortunately, I gave up chasing stars a long time ago, otherwise I would definitely regret it even more now."

Vincent shook his head and chuckled.

Girlish hearts overflowing, drawing hearts on the timetable, buying a complete set of bestsellers...

Hermione pouted, "Do you think I was very childish at that time?"

Vincent looked at her seriously, "Everyone has childish moments. I laughed because I thought you were cute back then."

He reached out his hand and gently poked her slightly puffed cheek, "But it wasn't as cute as it is now."

Hermione grabbed his playful hand and said, "Stop it, there are a lot of people watching us."

Vincent pouted and looked around. "Why would anyone notice us? We haven't done anything shameful."

"Ahem..." Russell, who was sitting on the other side of him, coughed. "Although showing affection is not against the law, can you please consider my feelings?"

Vincent immediately sat up straight, "Okay, Uncle Osmond, from now on, we will definitely not disturb you from watching the game."

Russell looked at his serious face, then looked at Hermione who spread her hands helplessly towards him, and remembered Dumbledore's previous evaluation of him.

This kid is reliable, but he can sometimes be a real headache for people.

Russell felt the same way, but he didn't feel it was a headache. Instead, he thought it was a good thing.

He couldn't help but laugh, "Vincent, who did you learn your sense of humor from?"

“Hmm…” Vincent pretended to think hard, “Maybe… maybe… maybe… it should be… innate.”

Hermione was also amused and chuckled, "I waited so long with you, I knew you wouldn't say anything serious."

Vincent sat upright with a very solemn expression, "What's wrong with that? I'm answering the questions very seriously."

Hermione sighed softly, "Yes, yes, you are right."

Russell almost laughed out loud when he saw her helpless look.

He looked at the two of them curiously, "You two should have developed from friends to lovers, right?"

Vincent and Hermione looked at each other, then smiled and nodded in tacit understanding.

Russell was fed a mouthful of dog food again, but this time he didn't feel sour like before. He even felt inexplicably satisfied.

The feeling is hard to describe, sweet and intoxicating.

When Vincent saw the kindness and relief in his smile, he immediately understood that he liked and supported himself and Hermione as a couple, which is commonly known as CP shipping.

That cheerful "uncle smile" is the best proof.
