Chapter 375 The long-lost visit day
By the time of lunch, the new batsman had been selected, and that was Mikel.
Those Quidditch books he read before were not in vain. He had basically mastered the rules and everything, and he was also good at flying, which made him go all the way to the end of the selection.
Cedric immediately made a decision, confirming that he would replace Wright and become Hufflepuff's new batsman.
After learning the news, Ryan's envious eyes turned red.
He competed for goalkeeper before, and lost out to a fifth grader in reaction speed.
Mikel, however, was very happy, and waved his big hand to express...to treat everyone to lunch in the auditorium.
After the first team training was over, Kyle hurried back to the Hufflepuff common room and found an armchair near the fireplace.
It started raining after noon.
It rains in October, even if you wear a warm badge, you can still feel cold, and it is more comfortable to be near a warm fireplace.
There were a lot of people in the common room, chattering and buzzing.
"What's going on?" he asked Connor, who was sitting in an armchair next to her, finishing two star charts for astronomy class.
"Going to Hogsmeade for the first weekend." Connor pointed to a notice on the bulletin board, "At the end of October, before Halloween."
"Great," said Cedric, pushing in from behind, "I'm going to Devis-Bance's to get a set of broom pruning tools, and I don't think it's turning as well as it used to be. .”
Kyle was also very happy. Going shopping in Hogsmeade was one of the few recreational activities for the students.
Although he knew the secret passage to Hogsmeade and had been there many times before, since the last time he and Fred George were caught by Professor McGonagall on the three broomsticks, they I restrained myself a lot, and stopped sneaking over there.
And this year there are still dementors, so I can't go there.
Because of Dumbledore's presence, the dementors were polite at school, just guarding the entrance, but it was different in Hogsmeade.
Especially after someone found traces of Sirius Black nearby...
Those shopkeepers complained in the "Daily Prophet" more than once, calling on the Ministry of Magic to strengthen the management of dementors, at least not to let them break into the shop casually.
But little success.
The Ministry of Magic don't care, and the dementors... they don't read newspapers.
If you happened to meet a dementor when you sneaked into Hogsmeade, it would be more troublesome than meeting a professor.
The next day, because of the news of the Hogsmeade visit day, everyone seemed very excited. In the herbal medicine class, many people were discussing where to go until that day.
Professor Sprout had to deduct points from two people to let them put down their enthusiasm.
"I know you're looking forward to going to the Honeydukes Candy Shop, but what we have in this lesson is just as important."
Professor Sprout said loudly: "I must remind you that belladonna is a poisonous and dangerous plant, and you must concentrate on collecting pollen ... unless you want to spend Halloween in the school hospital.
"Now, put on protective gloves..."
Professor Sprout's words were still very useful. As soon as they heard that it was poisonous, everyone immediately became more nervous, and scrambled to pick up the gloves that had been placed on the table in advance.
After seeing everyone getting nervous, Professor Sprout nodded in satisfaction.
She didn't say anything else.
As long as it is the plants that the students come into contact with in the greenhouse, there is nothing too dangerous.
Just like last year's mandrakes, they were all juveniles, and when their cries were deadly enough, they would be transferred to another greenhouse by Professor Sprout.
And it's not open to students.
The same goes for the belladonna this time.
Their flowers are still yellow, and even if they get pollen accidentally, they will only be scratched for a few days at most, and there is no need to go to the school hospital at all.
And when they turn purple, they are really dangerous. If they get pollen then, it will not be a problem to spend Halloween in the school hospital... It is considered lucky to be discharged from the hospital on Christmas.
However, this part of the content is not needed for the time being, and it will not be too late to teach them after they return from Hogsmeade.
After the herbal medicine class, there is no class in the morning.
Kyle returned to the castle and met a frustrated Harry near the entrance hall. He walked forward without saying a word with his head down, and almost knocked over a pair of armor in the corridor.
"Hey kid, watch out when you walk!"
"This is my favorite piece of armor!" exclaims one of the portraits above.
Harry didn't speak, turned around and continued walking towards the auditorium.
"What happened to him?" Kyle asked.
"His application was not signed."
Hermione, who came with him, explained: "Professor McGonagall disagrees with him going to Hogsmeade?"
"That's because she is too conformist!" Ron couldn't help but said, "Professor McGonagall knows that Harry's uncles and aunts are all Muggles, and they hate everything related to magic. It is impossible to give Harry signature on the application form.
But as long as she says a word, this matter will be resolved..."
"Professor McGonagall is right!" Hermione was a little annoyed, "Don't forget Black, someone has seen him nearby once."
"Blake is not a fool, it is impossible to go to Hogsmeade to act rashly." Ron said.
"Only you think so!" Hermione said angrily: If you don't believe me, ask Kyle and see what he says.
The eyes of the two looked over at the same time... No, it should be three people, and Harry, he also raised his head and looked at Kyle.
Uh... aren't you talking about Harry?Why did the topic suddenly come to me.
Kyle thought for a while and said: "I think what Hermione said makes sense. On the day of the visit, the dementors in Hogsmeade will be transferred away. If Black wants to do something, that is the best opportunity. "
"Look." Hermione said, looking up.
Ron muttered a few words, but still felt that the two of them were making a fuss over a molehill.
Harry's expression didn't change.
After all, Professor McGonagall had clearly rejected his request. Unless Uncle Vernon rushed to Hogwarts to help him sign the application form, it would be useless to say anything.
This is obviously impossible.
Kyle's words were barely an excuse for him not to go.
Sirius Black was looking for him, it would be safer to stay at Hogwarts...
Now Harry could only convince himself that.
"Be happy, isn't there a banquet." Ron wanted to cheer Harry up, and said, "The banquet on Halloween will be held at night."
"Yeah, that's really nice," said Harry, though still not in high spirits.
……
By the time of lunch, the new batsman had been selected, and that was Mikel.
