"Zhu, why did you look at Professor Snape with that look when you were in class?" Karina put down the plate in her hand, and looked at Sun Zhu who was about to go to the lounge.
Sun Zhu was full of doubts: "What look?"
"It's that kind, sticky...well, I'm not sure." She scratched her head in trouble, "Didn't you notice that in class just now, only you dared to look up at him!"
"No, I think Gryffindors are very active." Sun Zhu shook his head, "I didn't do anything, I just, I haven't seen the teachers for a long time... I miss it."
In fact, according to the information provided by the system, she speculated that Snape was still trying to cheat the diary from Lucius at this time, so she was just trying to express her support for Professor Snape's career with his eyes. that's all...
"Ah, Gryffindor, they're different from you...but luckily they're here, Professor Snape didn't deduct Hufflepuff's points in this class."
"Let's say, thank you Gryffindor." Charlotte, who was passing by, and Winnie next to her clapped her hands, "I was nervous at first, and I was stirring in the wrong direction, and was unfortunately seen by Professor Snape. I thought he was going to Deduct points, or at least taunt me...but Fred next to me knocked over the cauldron and managed to save my life!"
"I said why Gryffindor was deducted ten points at the beginning of the experiment!" Karina suddenly realized.
"Uh, this is really..." Sun Zhu sighed.
"I heard..." Fina laughed and said, "The fifth grade Gryffindor was also deducted a lot of points in the first quarter of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class this morning."
"It's so pitiful, let's change the subject. In the afternoon flight lesson, Zhu, you have to practice flying with me. Duke has given up and said he will be a cheerleader for us." Karina shook her head, "My dad He bought me a six-star sweeper with the royalties from his comics, but unfortunately I can’t practice broomsticks in a place full of Muggles this summer.”
"Although I have practice, but not too much, and simply flying on a broomstick is not the same thing as a competition. To be honest, I am a little nervous."
"Don't be nervous, we are all your cheerleaders." Daisy patted Sun Zhu's shoulder, "Speaking of which, is your broom ready?"
"Oh, my father bought me the Nimbus 1999, which is said to have only been out for half a month, and is designed to be lighter than the 1998." Sun Zhu stretched out his hand and shouted: "Fly the broom."
A broom with a simple and elegant shape and smooth lines appeared in her hand.
Karina exclaimed: "The most... the newest model of Nimbus?! God, Bamboo, if I remember correctly, the one in Cedric's hand is only 1998. If this is the case, we have two Nimbus in our team!"
"Light wheel? Where is it?" Duke struggled to squeeze his head into the encirclement of the girls.
He quickly locked the broom in Sun Zhu's hand, and couldn't put it down: "Although Nimbus 1999 is no more outstanding than 1998 in terms of flight performance, it is five dollars more expensive than 1998 because of the color-changing and invisible function added to the outer coating. Galleons! It costs 60 Galleons, which is equivalent to a month's salary for an ordinary employee of the Ministry of Magic. Sun, your father treats you very well."
Not far away, James also cast his gaze over, nodded and said, "Very good."
"Uh, actually this money..."
Sun Zhu glanced at the badgers chattering around her broom, and helplessly said to the only calm Fina: "Do you still remember what I told you that we met Tibetans at the ski resort on Christmas? Is it about the snowman?"
"Remember, did the people over there give you this broom?" Fina looked around, everyone took turns to "appreciate" Sun Zhu's broom, and even a few freshmen who didn't know why followed in the crowd join in the fun.
"Almost." Sun Zhu rested his chin and looked at the branches hanging above his head. The plants in the lounge were still lush and lush after several months of vacation.
In fact, even though Dad refused their thank-you money, they still sent the Galleons as bonuses through the British Ministry of Magic.
When Sun Zhengxing saw that his salary in a certain month was doubled than usual, he ran to the minister's office to inquire in doubt, and only then learned the truth.
Although Uncle Alexei said in his later letter that they applied for more than that much bonus for Dad...
"So, my father used the money to buy a light wheel for me. Anyway, he himself is not willing to spend this money. He thinks that the wages earned by his own labor are his own money." Sun Zhu spread his hands, " In fact, I don't think it is necessary to buy such a good one, after all, brooms are updated very quickly."
If I remember correctly, Harry's Nimbus 2000 will be launched soon, and there will be a wave of technological innovation at that time, and no amount of Galleons will be enough to spend.
Moreover, there are also the legendary Firebolt, the Rolls-Royce in the broom, a few hundred Galleons... Sun Zhu believes that Sirius will give this broom to Harry earlier this time.
Afternoon flight lessons started on the foggy Quidditch pitch.
Although the weather wasn't that good, everyone was in high spirits. After all, for the vast majority of second-year students, they could officially sign up for the academy's Quidditch team today.
Four registration teams lined up in front of Mrs. Huo Qi, each belonging to the four colleges.
There are ten people in Gryffindor, the twins are doing warm-up exercises in the team, and Angelina is chatting with the tall beauty Fanny.
The number of Slytherins was slightly smaller, but soon a few more people lined up, and it seemed that even this was going to compete with Gryffindor.
There are only Sun Zhu and Karina in Hufflepuff's team.Fortunately, there was Ravenclaw next to them to accompany them, but Ravenclaw also had two men and two women.
"Zhu, don't we even have competitors?"
"It seems so."
"Where have all the Hufflepuff boys gone?" Karina hated iron for steel.
"Perhaps, they have already joined the team." Sun Zhu pointed to Cedric and James who were holding a broom in one hand. "Actually, we are even with Ravenclaw."
"That's right, it's fine if it's not No.4." Karina was instantly comforted.
"Is there only you two in your academy?" George who was not far away waved at them, "Where is Duke, doesn't he like Quidditch very much?"
Sun Zhu shrugged: "He has a lot of research on broomsticks and competitions, but he trembles when he flies."
"Well, good luck to you then."
Mrs. Hooch didn't seem surprised by the number of people queuing up. Although Quidditch is the most popular national sport in the wizarding world, not everyone has the confidence to join the game.
"Host." The system suddenly said: "You don't have to worry."
Sun Zhu asked blankly, "What am I worried about?"
"Although your academy has the least number of participants, with me here, it will not be difficult to help you win."
"Huh???" Sun Zhu quickly realized.
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing her face full of tears and laughter, Karina was a little puzzled.
"If, I mean if, I have a way to make Hufflepuff 100% victorious, but it's not very compliant, although I can guarantee that no one will find out... Do you think, this method, should we try it? " Sun Zhu blinked at her.
"No." Karina reached out and pinched Sun Zhu's face, "Hufflepuffs are not allowed to do things that violate the rules, otherwise what's the point of winning?"
"Xiao Tongzi, did you hear that?" Sun Zhu replied, "So, when I compete in the future, you have to mute your voice."
"Okay, host." The system said kindly: "As long as your life is not threatened, I will not interfere with your game."
"The most important thing is." Sun Zhu nodded towards Cedric who was not far away, "Without your 'help', we can still win."
Sun Zhu was full of doubts: "What look?"
"It's that kind, sticky...well, I'm not sure." She scratched her head in trouble, "Didn't you notice that in class just now, only you dared to look up at him!"
"No, I think Gryffindors are very active." Sun Zhu shook his head, "I didn't do anything, I just, I haven't seen the teachers for a long time... I miss it."
