Journey through the heavens from Hogwarts

Chapter 23: Conduct assessment in advance

After answering Hermione's question, Lin Xiao concentrated on watching the game. After all, there were very few exciting entertainment projects in the wizarding world.

Snape awarded Hufflepuff a penalty because George aimed a Bludger at him.Hermione crossed her fingers on her knees and stared at Harry with narrowed eyes. He saw Harry circling the arena like a hawk, looking for the Golden Snitch.

"Do you know how the Gryffindor team selects its players?" A few minutes later, when Snape unreasonably awarded another penalty kick to the Hufflepuff team, Malfoy not far away said loudly, " They pick people they feel pity for. Like Potter, who has no parents, and the Weasley brothers, who have no money - you should join the team too, Neville Longbottom, because you have no brains. "

Neville's face turned red and he turned around in his chair to face Malfoy.

"I'm stronger than twelve of you put together, Malfoy," he stammered.

Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle laughed weirdly. Ron on the side didn't dare to take his eyes off the field, but just shouted: "Show him something awesome, Neville."

"Longbottom, if brains were gold, you'd be poorer than Weasley, and that's saying something."

Hermione, who heard their conversation, also pulled Lin Xiao, wanting him to show off to Malfoy. She wanted to vent her anger on Neville, but Lin Xiao shook his head and said, "The professors are all here."

"Oh... Oops, I forgot."

Angrily, Hermione continued to look at the field and suddenly said, "Harry——!"

Harry suddenly made a beautiful dive, and the audience burst into exclamations and cheers.Hermione stood up excitedly, holding Lin Xiao's arm tightly with her hand, and saw Harry shooting to the ground like a bullet.

"Hurry up, Harry!" Hermione screamed, watching as Harry rushed straight towards Snape - not paying any attention to the extremely difficult and difficult hand-to-hand drama that was going on not far away.The little lions and the little snakes were wrestling together, using fists and kicks, and they all screamed in pain.

In the air, Snape had just turned around on his broomstick when he saw something golden whizzing past his ear, just inches away from him - and then, Harry stopped diving.He raised his arms in triumph, and the Snitch was firmly in his grasp.

"Lin Xiao! Did you see it? Harry won! We won! Gryffindor is ahead!" Hermione screamed, jumping on the chair, and then hugged the person next to her tightly. Lin Xiao.

"I saw it." After hearing Lin Xiao's voice, the little witch finally realized what she had done. After looking around with a red face, she breathed a sigh of relief.

After seeing Lin Xiao who didn't care, she gritted her teeth first, and then pretended to be nonchalant and said, "We won! Next, we only need to win the Quidditch Cup. With the extra points, this year is the most promising one." Those who have reached the Academy Cup, I just hope that no points will be deducted before the end of the semester." Then the little witch added angrily, "No, I have to keep an eye on Harry and the others, and I can't let them deduct points from the academy."

After listening to Hermione's words, Lin Xiao felt that when Dumbledore announced the Academy Cup, the little witch would experience a period of ups and downs.

A while after the game ended, Harry hurried over, first finding Ron who was boasting, and then looking for Lin Xiao and Hermione.

Harry panted and said, "We have to find an empty room. You listen to what I tell you..."

After making sure that Peeves was not in the room, Harry turned around and closed the door, and then told them what he had just seen and heard.

"So, our analysis is correct, that thing is the Philosopher's Stone, and Snape wants to force Quirrell to help him get the stone. He asked Quirrell if he knew how to get past Fluffy - and mentioned that Quirrell Luo's 'secret little trick' - I guess that in addition to Lu Wei, there are probably other agencies guarding the stone. There may be a lot of magic and witchcraft. Maybe Quirrell has cast some anti-black magic spells. Snape needs to undo them—"

Lin Xiao analyzed that he also directly put the blame on Snape.

"You mean to say that the Philosopher's Stone is only safe if Quirrell can resist Snape?" Ron shouted.

"And I heard that the stone will be gone next Tuesday." Lin Xiao added.

However, Quirrell was certainly braver than Harry and Ron thought.Over the next few weeks, he did look increasingly pale and thin, but he did not appear to be completely broken.

Every time they passed the corridor on the fourth floor, Harry and Ron would put their ears against the door to hear if Fluffy was still growling quietly inside.Snape strode around the school all day, his temper as grumpy as ever, which was a sure sign that the Philosopher's Stone was still safe.These days, every time Harry met Quirrell on the road, he would give him an encouraging smile; Ron also began to persuade people to stop laughing at Quirrell's stutter.

Lin Xiao was reviewing with Hermione, because when she knew that he planned to go to the professor to take the exam in advance, the little witch immediately said that she would go too. Afterwards, the two had a cordial and friendly conversation, and Lin Xiao compromised.So for the next time, the two of them simply lived in the library. In addition to completing a lot of homework every day, Lin Xiao also took the time to continue browsing the restricted book area.He doesn't have to review like Hermione like crazy. There's nothing he can do about it, he's failing!

After several days of review, Lin Xiao conducted a simulation test on Hermione at her repeated request. However, every time she answered well, the little witch asked again and again to try again, "It's OK." Yes, Hermione."

"I believe you will get good results." Lin Xiao said with a headache. "Why do you think I'm annoying?" Hermione said angrily.

"I'm not! I didn't! Don't talk nonsense!" After hearing Lin Xiao's three consecutive denials, Hermione also said arrogantly. She felt that she was about the same, "Huh, okay, we should go to the professors for assessment. .”

Then the two went to Professor Sprout first, who was in charge of the exams in the Herbology class, then to Professor Aurora Sinister in the Astronomy class, and then to Professor Flitwick in the Charms class and the Transfiguration class. Professor McGonagall.

The two of them also successfully passed the exams from the professors, and received their praise and some suggestions, saying that they can start self-study of second grade knowledge.

Now there is the last hard nut to crack, "Lin Xiao, do you think we can successfully pass Professor Snape's test?" Hermione said with some worry, "Don't worry, we have already put aside the test for Potions class." Are you at the end? Besides, you have passed the previous exams, so you should have some confidence in yourself."

Walking to the door of Snape's office, Hermione was still a little scared and did not knock on the door. At this moment, Snape's voice came from the office, "Mr. Xiao Lin and Miss Granger, why don't you dare to come in? Yes Don’t you want my Potions grade?”

After hearing Snape's slightly mocking tone, Lin Xiao opened the office door and walked in with Hermione.
