Chapter 61 George is too fierce

"Someone has tampered with the ball. It won't let Harry go. It didn't chase anyone during the whole game.

It must be that Malfoy from the Slytherin team who tampered with it. He wanted to catch the Snitch in such a despicable way!"

In order to protect Harry, all the Gryffindor players surrounded Harry, fell to the ground, and knocked the Bludger away again and again. The twins guessed angrily.

Chaser Alicia Spinnet looked at the captain Wood:

"Oliver, you can't let Harry deal with that thing alone. Let's suspend the game and ask for an investigation?"

Wood hesitated when he heard this.

Harry shouted excitedly:

"If we stop now, we will be disqualified!

We can't lose to the Slytherin team because of a crazy Bludger. They are already one hundred points ahead. Only if I catch the Golden Snitch can we win this game.

Hurry up, Oliver, take them away. You are by my side, and I can't catch the Golden Snitch at all!"

"No, if we both apply for an investigation at the same time, you will not be disqualified."

Just then, a familiar voice came from above them. It was George who came over.

After seeing the situation on the Gryffindor side, the Slytherin team started to watch the excitement. Anyway, it didn't hurt them. George went to persuade Flint to agree to apply for an investigation together.

The reason is very simple. He told Flint that they were almost certain to win with the current trend, but if they won the game because the Bludger attacked Harry, others would think that they had done something wrong, and that would be a disgusting win.

"George, you are such a good person!"

Wood looked at George with a touch of emotion in his eyes. George was indeed different from ordinary Slytherins.

Ms. Hooch noticed the situation and walked over quickly.

Because both parties jointly applied to investigate the Bludger, the game was suspended. Snape and McGonagall, as the deans of the two houses, inspected the Bludger, and the inspection results were obvious. Someone had indeed cast a powerful magic on the Bludger.

However, this kind of magic to control the Bludger is not something that the little wizards in the school can cast, so it can be determined that it was not done by the Slytherin team.

This situation is rare in the history of Hogwarts. In order to continue the game, the two deans announced that there was a problem with the Bludger itself and temporarily replaced it with a new one.

And Dumbledore was invited to help monitor the entire court to prevent any more accidents.

With Dumbledore's personal supervision, Dobby, who was hiding in the dark, naturally did not dare to make a move again, and the game entered a hot competition again.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, after a full three hours of competition, Harry was finally one step ahead and caught the Golden Snitch before Malfoy, scoring 150 points for the Gryffindor team and ending the game.

However, when he saw the score on the scoreboard, he was dumbfounded.

The score between Slytherin and Gryffindor at this time was - 400:200.

That is to say, excluding his 150 points, Gryffindor was 350 points behind.

"Congratulations to Harry Potter for catching the Golden Snitch and scoring 150 points for Gryffindor. Unfortunately, the winner of this game is Slytherin, because George from their team scored 30 goals alone."

Commentator Lee Jordan announced the result of the game with regret. As a Gryffindor, he certainly still hoped that Gryffindor would win, but unfortunately George from Slytherin was too fierce, and the Gryffindor team could not stop the goal at all.

After the game, George returned to Hogwarts Castle surrounded by all the wizards of Slytherin.

This time Slytherin was able to win entirely because of George. Otherwise, if Harry had caught the Golden Snitch normally, they would not have won again.

After dealing with everyone, George quietly brought his magic book to the side of the Black Lake.

Winning the Quidditch match was just to increase his popularity and reputation, facilitate his actions in school, and pave the way for his life after graduation.

But these are just auxiliary things that can help him become stronger.

Just like Lockhart, he tried every means to improve his reputation, but when he was in danger, he could only wait to be killed.

The real strong man should be like Dumbledore, Voldemort and Grindelwald, that is what he pursues.

It's just that his good time studying magic was interrupted not long after.

A tall middle-aged wizard with short yellow hair and round eyes found him.

"Hello, George!"

"Hello, Mr. P., who are you?"

Halfway through answering subconsciously, George realized that he had said it again.

"I am Ludo Bagman, the current director of the Department of Sports and Physical Education of the Ministry of Magic."

The middle-aged wizard smiled and replied.

George immediately searched his memory about the name, and soon he had the answer.

Isn't this the director of the Sports Department who was addicted to gambling, went bankrupt, owed the goblins a large amount of gold coins, and cheated the Weasley twins?

"What can I do for you, Mr. Director?"

"It's like this, Ms. Hooch recommended you to me, and I just watched your game. I want to invite you to become a member of our England Quidditch team."

Ludo believes that for a little wizard like George, upon hearing his invitation, he will definitely agree immediately and excitedly, because no little wizard can refuse such an honor.

However, George's answer petrified him on the spot:

"Sorry, I'm not interested in that."

Joining the England Quidditch team would naturally be of great benefit to his reputation, but it would be a waste of time. He would have to go to the Ministry of Magic for training every weekend and participate in competitions around the world. It would not be worth the loss.

As I said just now, fame is just a side job, and learning magic is the foundation, so he naturally refused immediately.

"But you played so well just now. I can see that you stopped playing in order to save face for the Gryffindor team. Otherwise, you could score more goals. Why did you refuse my invitation?

Are you worried that your headmaster would not agree?

Don't worry about that. I will go and talk to Dumbledore in person. He will definitely agree and will give you special permission to free up time for training and competition."

Ludo explained anxiously.

George's performance on the field just now has completely conquered him. Judging from his professional level, even among the major international teams, George's level is among the top ones.

So he must take George down today.

"Mr. Director, to be honest with you, I am good at Quidditch because I am talented, but magic is my hobby, so I don't want to waste all my limited study time on Quidditch.

Especially now that I am only in the first grade, it is the most important enlightenment stage for learning magic.

George saw that Ludo's face was getting more and more anxious, and he paused and continued:

"Of course, I am also willing to contribute to our country's Quidditch team, just like I contributed to Slytherin.

So I can agree to join the England Quidditch team first, but I can't participate in training and competitions until I am in the fourth grade. "
