Chapter 382: No, come again?
Chapter 382 Isn’t that right? Come again?
At the end of October, Raton finally returned from Romania after being away for more than a month.
Kyle put it back in the dormitory, filled the food bowl with dragon liver and tonics, and then took off the bag tied to its claws.
inside is full of dragon scale badges and a letter from Charlie.
The letter said that because the store did not have enough stock, it had to make a batch at short notice, which delayed some time.
Kyle sighed, mentally criticizing Old John for his lack of professionalism.
Had he known this, he would have bought less.
After such a long time, everyone has discovered that dementors will not enter the castle, so few people ask him about the badge recently.
Everyone is more concerned about another thing now.
As the first Quidditch match approaches, the atmosphere in the castle is at an all-time high. Everyone can't wait to watch the game. In this anticipation, not to mention the dementors, even Black who broke into the castle seems not to be... So important.
…
The day before the competition, the wind was howling and the rain was falling harder than ever. The corridors and classrooms were too dark, so we had to light more torches and lanterns.
No one wants to play in this kind of weather.
“Fortunately, the first match is between Gryffindor and Slytherin.”
In the common room, Mikel glanced at the window that was hit by the strong wind, and said thankfully: "This kind of bad weather really affects the performance."
This is his first game, and Mikel still takes it very seriously.
Other team members around him also nodded in agreement.
But when they arrived at the auditorium, Cedric told them some bad news.
"Our game has been postponed." He said with an ugly face, "Flint just came to me and said that we will play Gryffindor in tomorrow's game."
“Why!” the team members asked almost simultaneously.
Cedric said, "Flint's reason is that their seeker broke his arm during training yesterday and wanted us to top him."
“He’s talking nonsense!” Mikel said angrily, “Even if his arm is broken, Madam Pomfrey will only need one night to make it grow back.
“Their reasons for doing this are obvious, they don’t want to play in this weather and think it will reduce their score.”
"Wait a minute..." Mikel suddenly thought of something and asked with an uneasy look on his face: "Captain, have you already agreed to them..."
Cedric shook his head, "Not yet, I just said I need to think about it."
“There’s no need to think about it at all, just refuse.” Another team member said.
"But Flint called Professor Snape." Cedric said with a serious expression. "When I said he would think about it, he already looked very unhappy."
“What, Professor Snape?” Mikel couldn’t help raising his voice.
He really couldn't figure it out. It was just a Quidditch match. How could it alarm the Head of Slytherin?
"And..." Cedric paused before continuing: "If we don't agree, he will definitely go to Ravenclaw..."
“When did this happen, and you still...” Mikel suddenly stopped mid-sentence, turned around and asked:
“Kyle, which college are we taking our first spells class with today?”
"Ravenclaw," Kyle said. "What's wrong?"
“Just wait a moment...”
Mikel sat there with his head lowered and didn’t know what he was thinking.
The surrounding team members did not disturb him.
After a few minutes, Mikel raised his head again.
“I have an idea…”
He grinned and said: "If players from us and Ravenclaw are injured and hospitalized, there will be no reason for Professor Snape to ask us to replace Slytherin."
“You are right to say that.” Cedric had a strange expression on his face, “But it’s not worthwhile to get yourself injured and hospitalized just for a competition... isn’t it a bit uneconomical?”
"Don't worry, I've thought about it all..." Mikel said confidently, "But first, I have to meet their seeker Qiu Zhang before class... Could you please call her for me?" Cedric glanced at him suspiciously, but after thinking about it, he stood up and walked towards the Ravenclaw table.
What he originally thought was to agree after discussing it with the team members.
After all, Kyle's waterproof and moisture-proof badge is very useful. Even in this kind of weather, it won't have much impact on them, but they will definitely feel uncomfortable.
You don’t want to compete so you just find an excuse to replace us? Why.
Now that Mikel has said this, let’s listen to his plan...if it is really feasible.
Soon, autumn is coming.
She looked a little bad. She must have heard about the current situation from Cedric on the way.
“What can you do?” She sat next to Mikel and asked directly.
“Just an idea, but I think it’s feasible…”
The two of them murmured quietly.
Autumn’s expression gradually changed from worry to surprise, and then her eyes became brighter and brighter...
“Your method seems to work really well,” she said.
“Right.” Mikel said with a smile: “Now we are missing the most critical props. Just wait, I will buy them now…”
“Wait a minute.” Kyle stopped Mikel, took out a few candies and said, “No need to buy them, I just have them here.”
“Are you sure it’s useful?”
“It’s easier to use than the original version.” Kyle raised his eyebrows, “And it won’t have any impact on the body.”
…
Soon, it’s time for class.
At the entrance of the stairs, several people separated.
Cedric is going to the underground classroom for Potions class, while Kyle and the others are going to the Charms classroom.
The Appearance Charm they are going to learn today.
As usual, Professor Flitwick, after explaining the issues of gestures and spells in detail, gave each person a blank parchment and asked them to unravel the content hidden on it.
“Reveal yourself quickly!”
The sound of students chanting mantras came from the classroom.
After Professor Flitwick walked to the other side of the classroom, Mikel suddenly stuffed a bean into his mouth, and then winked at Qiu.
After Qiu noticed it, she also stuffed something into her mouth.
The next second, without warning, a fierce white light suddenly flashed in the classroom.
Then Mikel let out an exaggerated scream and lay motionless on the table.
Professor Flitwick was startled. When he turned around, he saw Mikel lying motionless on the ground, and Qiu, who was pale and swollen than before.
“Oh my god, what happened!” Professor Flitwick was a little confused and didn’t understand what was going on.
But after he saw Mikel's state clearly, coupled with the familiar yet unfamiliar bright light just now, some bad memories from a few years ago suddenly came back.
No way, come again?
Professor Flitwick felt nervous and shouted quickly: "Quickly, send them to the campus hospital!"
Kyle reacted the fastest and rushed out first.
