Chapter 405 Malfoy and Harry
After leaving the corridor on the eighth floor, the two prepared to go back to the common room along the stairs.
But the next second, Kyle suddenly saw Professor McGonagall just walking out of the Gryffindor common room.
There was nothing surprising about this at first. Professor McGonagall is the dean of Gryffindor, so of course he will appear here.
But Kyle noticed that she was still holding a beautiful broom in her hand.
The streamlined ash handle and the slightly raised birch branches at the end all indicate its identity...
The fastest broom in the world, the Firebolt.
Professor McGonagall looked beaming, with an undisguised smile on his face.
"Good afternoon, Professor McGonagall." Kyle said, and Connor on the side also said hello.
"Good afternoon..." Professor McGonagall nodded and asked with a smile, "Have you seen Potter? I have good news for him."
"No." Kyle said, "We have just been practicing the Patronus Charm in the empty classroom and didn't notice what was going on outside."
"Well, how is it going?" Professor McGonagall looked at Connor.
She had already heard from some Hufflepuff students that the patron saint of jellyfish on the Quidditch field last time was summoned by Kyle, so naturally she didn't need to ask him.
"Not even close." Connor said and took out her wand.
"Call God Guard!"
A ball of fist-sized silver light flew out of the wand, and began to dance around Connor non-stop.
"Oh, you have too high expectations of yourself." Professor McGonagall said in surprise, "For a 14-year-old student, being able to summon the prototype of a Patronus is an amazing achievement.
Also, you can’t just look at Kyle and think he’s not doing a good job, that’s not accurate. "
Professor McGonagall seemed to be in a really good mood, not only fully affirming Connor, but even made a small joke to comfort her.
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, the Patronus Charm won't appear in the exam, and you won't need it for the time being..."
Professor McGonagall said, "Professor Dumbledore has settled everything. Unless Sirius Black's trace is confirmed, those dementors will never take the initiative to step into the castle."
Connor nodded.
After Professor McGonagall left, she turned to Kyle and whispered, "It looks like we're going to have a tough fight next week."
"Yeah." Kyle scratched his hair.
Professor McGonagall showed up in the Gryffindor common room with a Firebolt and asked for Harry, apparently to return the broom to him.
After all, with Professor McGonagall's obsession with the Quidditch Cup, if there is a problem with the broom, she cannot be so happy.
The two hurried back to the common room and told the others about it.
The originally lively crowd suddenly became quiet, as if it was Snape's Potions classroom.
Especially Cedric and the team members...
Although they had already guessed that this would be the result, when the news was confirmed, they were still at a loss as to what to do.
So, Cedric took Kyle to the court for extra practice.
Other members also returned to the dormitory and got their own broomsticks.
It was too cold outside, and the biting cold wind seemed to penetrate every corner of the body. In this kind of weather, even the training Kudwood didn't want to stay outside.
But Hufflepuff has the warm-up badge provided by Kyle, so there is no need to worry about this problem at all.
From the afternoon until nearly evening, the Gryffindor team also came.
Now that many people know about the Firebolt, Wood has no intention of hiding it anymore.
<divclass="contentadv">They came here just to test this new broom. Of course, it is not ruled out that Wood means to show off... After all, Gryffindor has not defeated Hufflepuff even once in the past few years.
They did not compete for the right to use the stadium. They just occupied a space on the edge and used rocks to train as a substitute for the Golden Snitch.
Harry, who was riding a Firebolt, looked like a gust of wind. No matter how tricky the angle of the stone thrown by Wood was, it would be caught by Harry in the next second.
Even when several players throw it from different directions, none of the stones can fall to the ground.
Gradually, the Hufflepuff players also lost their focus on training, and would always subconsciously glance to the side.
In the end, Cedric simply ended the training early.
Kyle carried his broom and walked out of the dark stadium side by side with Cedric.
The atmosphere was a little gloomy.
It has been heard before that after seeing the speed of the Firebolt with their own eyes this time, they feel that their hope of winning is even slimmer.
"It's okay..." Cedric tried to liven up the atmosphere, "Stones are different from golden snitches. To be honest, even without the Firebolt, I can still do what Potter just did... If you don't believe me, we can find a place Try it.
If I miss one, I'll treat everyone to Honeydukes candy, take your pick. "
"Of course we believe you, captain." Mikel suddenly laughed twice, "We were just... hungry, so we didn't want to talk."
"That's right, that's it..."
"Yeah, my stomach has been growling since just now..."
"I heard that there is pudding today, I really want to have dinner quickly..."
The previous gloomy atmosphere seemed to disappear all of a sudden, and everyone walked into the castle talking and laughing.
The auditorium was as lively as ever, and by the time they came over after putting down the brooms, the Gryffindors had already arrived.
The Firebolt was sitting in the middle of the table, with the sign up, and there were a lot of people around to watch and congratulate Harry on getting such an excellent broom in place of the Nimbus.
But Malfoy seemed a little unhappy.
When Kyle walked into the auditorium, he just saw him approaching Harry with his two followers.
"This broom has a lot of special features, doesn't it." There was a malicious gleam in his eyes. "It's a pity that it doesn't have a parachute, in case you get too close to a dementor."
Crabbe and Goyle chuckled.
Harry ignored him, and just talked to Fred next to him, which made Malfoy's expression ugly.
Kyle looked on and suddenly felt a little funny.
Since Harry was accidentally rescued by Malfoy last time, the two sides have not spoken to each other for a long time.
Kyle thought that Malfoy would take advantage of this incident to taunt Harry, but no, he seemed to regard saving Harry as a shame and never mentioned it at all.
This time, it was just to mock Harry for being afraid of dementors.
Seeing that the other party ignored him, Malfoy snorted coldly, narrowed his gray eyes, and strode away.
However, when passing by Kyle, he still shouted in a loud voice: "I think you should invent a fall-proof robe, Gryffindor will definitely chip in to buy a set for their Seeker... ..."
Then without waiting for Kyle to answer, he walked into the middle of the rest of the Slytherin team.
They put their heads together as if to ask Malfoy if the broom was a real Firebolt.
After leaving the corridor on the eighth floor, the two prepared to go back to the common room along the stairs.
But the next second, Kyle suddenly saw Professor McGonagall just walking out of the Gryffindor common room.
