Chapter 639 The school’s new broom
Just as Cedric thought, in the next two weeks, he could always accept challenges from different people at DA gatherings.
But the good news is that so far, Fred and George, whom he is most worried about, have been silent... Of course, this also means that he must continue to be wary of them.
And Cedric also discovered another problem. Because Quidditch training needs to be avoided as much as possible from bad weather, it is difficult to determine the time for their gathering on a certain day.
But for this matter, they quickly came up with a way to deal with it.
Inspired by the reward Kyle left in the Room of Requirement, Hermione made a batch of fake gold coins with the Transmutation Charm on them.
As long as the number on the main gold coin changes, the other gold coins will also change accordingly, so that they can tell others the specific time of the next gathering in time.
It's quite convenient.
Fred and George discovered that this method was also useful for cheating, but their idea was soon discovered by Cedric, and then nothing happened...
Cedric would never allow them to do this, but Fred and George just had this idea.
After all, the things used for cheating are fundamentally different from their previous prank products. Once discovered, I'm afraid it won't just be as simple as deducting points and confinement.
"Nice idea," Kyle said.
Millicent, Pansy, and Malfoy also rehearsed a small stage play, performing the scene after Ron missed the ball.
<divclass="contentadv">This also makes Ron nervous every day.
Although this was not in compliance with the regulations, she could not refuse when the two professors came to her in person.
There were thirty brooms in total, each one brand new, with the smell of pine oil still lingering on the smooth broom handles.
Kyle also smiled, and then put away the fake gold coins, "Are you guys going to have a party next?"
As if someone told them that Christmas had come early, bursts of cheers and screams suddenly filled the auditorium.
They all put on gold-red scarves with lion patterns painted on them, which also showed that they supported Gryffindor.
Nimbus 2001 wants to catch up with Firebolt? Unless there is a fire dragon pushing it away from behind.
"So the Ministry of Magic decided to replace Hogwarts with a new batch of better brooms for use in Quidditch matches and flying lessons."
"It's so beautiful..."
A large group of people gathered in front of the teacher's desk, looking longingly at the brooms.
She walked to the front, smiled and said: "Yes, no doubt, these brooms are all yours."
No matter who they are or what grade they are in, as long as they meet in the corridor, they will inevitably laugh at each other.
"I saw it in the Quidditch boutique in Diagon Alley. This is the new broomstick that was released this year."
Recently, broomsticks have been flying over the Quidditch pitch almost every day...either Gryffindor or Slytherin.
A store opened by an outstanding graduate is always better than a store opened by an expelled undergraduate.
Just like that, November has finally arrived.
Umbridge coughed again, attracting everyone's attention.
"To be precise, it should be the leprechaun's gold coin that was copied using a copying spell." Cedric said, "The leprechaun's gold coin can only last for half a day. This can extend its existence to about a year. "
The weather is getting colder and colder. The wind outside the castle is like a knife, which makes people's cheeks hurt. However, it is very hot inside the castle.
But Professor McGonagall was also very happy. Not only did she not care about Umbridge's provocation at all, she even nodded at her in a friendly manner.
Early in the morning, Kyle, Connor, and Cedric left the common room and headed toward the Great Hall.
In addition to the upcoming game, there is another reason...
The last time Cedric went to apply for the right to use the stadium, Ms. Huo Qi said that the right to use the stadium for the next week had been pre-rented by Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape.
"No way, we are very familiar with the copying spell, so we naturally know its functions." Cedric said with a smile, as if he was thinking of the scene where they were desperately copying maps in an empty classroom a few years ago.
But this seems to be Slytherin's tactic. They are always happy to attack every Gryffindor player. In addition to Harry, Ron is also their focus.
Just as everyone was discussing enthusiastically... there was a sudden cough from the crowd.
Umbridge had to hold her wand against her throat to make her voice rise above the cheers.
"This is for you." Cedric handed Kyle a fake gold coin during breakfast.
Kyle took it and felt it in his hand, "Is this the leprechaun's gold coin?"
Warrington also boasted about knocking Harry off his broom in the Great Hall, but Kyle had reservations about this.
"Oh my god, this is a sweep of eleven stars!"
"As a Senior Investigator at the Ministry of Magic, I noticed that the schools were using brooms from thirty years ago.
"Probably not this week." Cedric shook his head and said, "Gryffindor has the first Quidditch match on Saturday, and they won't have time this week."
There was a row of brand new, shiny new brooms at the front of the auditorium, where the teacher's chair was.
If there were Hufflepuffs in Saturday's game, then it would probably be Professor Sprout who went to see Ms. Hooch.
As the game gets closer and closer, the tension between Gryffindor and Slytherin becomes more and more intense.
Everyone on the team understands this.
Umbridge was very satisfied with the students' performance. She turned to look at Professor McGonagall and others sitting nearby, with undisguised pride on her face.
……
"Oh!"
But that's okay, it's a vacation.
They didn't want to be expelled from school, that would be too embarrassing and might have consequences for the Weasley Joke Shop in the future.
"Cough, cough."
Not seeing the annoyance or anger on the other person's face made Umbridge feel a little uncomfortable.
The Quidditch match is about to start, and this is the first match after a year. Everyone is taking it seriously, including the professor.
"Are these many broomsticks going to be distributed to all Quidditch players?"
Today's auditorium was much livelier than usual and full of people.
Because today is the day the Quidditch match starts.
"Although you haven't been there recently, I think it would be better to give you one."
"Yeah, I guess so," Kyle said.
Putting aside whether Warrington has this ability, their broomsticks are not of the same level.
"The Ministry of Magic believes that more and more students at Hogwarts are injured during Quidditch matches every year, and the biggest reason is that the brooms are aging.
Umbridge did not know when she appeared in the auditorium. After seeing her, everyone immediately dispersed and sat back to their tables as quickly as possible, but their eyes were still glued to the row of brooms.
The auditorium erupted in cheers again, mixed with praise for the Ministry of Magic.
"Did you do it?" Kangna looked at Kyle subconsciously.
She did not think that the Ministry of Magic would spend such a large sum of money to buy new brooms for the school for no reason, and it was impossible for Umbridge to care whether the students would be injured.
"Well... I can't afford such a large amount of money." Kyle blinked and lowered his voice: "I just made a small suggestion."
