hp's chaotic life at Hogwarts

Chapter 20 Chapter 20

Riley knocked him on the head: "What are you talking about? The professors monitor the students in the third grade and above according to gender, and also guard the entrances and exits. As prefects, we share the responsibility and guard the first to third grade students. Students are very reasonable. Well, shut up and go to sleep." Draco was given a good lesson and followed the group to the hall in a depressed mood.

This night is destined to be restless. Dumbledore and the professors decided to let the prefects take turns to keep vigil. A vigil requires two prefects from different houses and lasts for two hours. This is mainly to take care of each house in a balanced way and to ensure the sleep of the prefects.

Cedric was assigned to a group with Riley, and they were assigned to three or four o'clock the next morning. Cedric looked at the girl's depressed and hardworking look and thought she was really cute.

Cedric remembered Hermione's hairpin and asked Riley why she gave it to Hermione whom she didn't know very well at the time. Riley was very honest: "Because it was Draco's fault at the time. He should not have insulted the Weasley family's family background. And according to my observation, Draco has always been the first to cause trouble. But as a Slytherin, I didn't A way to openly side with Gryffindor. Give Hermione the card, firstly, to apologize for causing trouble for Slytherin, secondly, to comfort her for being insulted, and thirdly, to thank her for speaking up for me."

It was exactly as expected. But... Cedric continued to ask Riley: "Why did the Weasley twins always play some very extreme pranks on you later?"

At the mention of this, Riley's face instantly distorted. She answered through gritted teeth: "Because they are Shabi."

Cedric didn't react - did Riley swear just now?

Riley suddenly realized that she was still in front of this elegant gentleman's boy, and she felt a little ashamed: "They didn't even know that the hairpin was from me, they thought I was a scheming snake."

Cedric instantly recalled the ugly expressions on the Weasleys' faces when he was talking to Hermione that morning. Frowning fiercely, Cedric felt even less favorable towards the twins.

Without continuing to talk about this unpleasant matter, Cedric changed the subject very considerately: "Riley, why do you think Black came to Hogwarts?"

Riley shook her head honestly, but then recalled the rumors circulating in Hogwarts - Sirius escaped from Azkaban in order to kill Harry Potter. He believes that in order to resurrect the Dark Lord, he must first kill Harry Potter, who is standing in the way.

Although Riley did not know about Sirius, she did not agree with blaming everything on a child. Think about it, when Harry Potter entered Hogwarts in the first grade, everyone regarded him as a rare animal; in the second grade, there were rumors that he was lost, and his reputation as a savior plummeted. Countless people were convinced that he was a descendant of Slytherin and wanted to open the Chamber of Secrets. Killing the Muggleborn; later, the lost incident was resolved, and countless people put Harry on the altar again, praising his merits; now that Sirius has escaped from prison, many students not only do not blame the original sin, but think that Harry has caused them... …

The reputation of the Savior has been ups and downs, and no one seems to have thought that he was just a thirteen-year-old child.

Riley also knew that Harry's relatives didn't take kindly to him. As far as Riley is concerned, if she had lived in cold eyes since she was a child and had never felt any love, the people around her would either admire her extremely or be extremely afraid of her... Riley really couldn't say that she would Will not turn black.

After thinking for a moment, Riley confessed her thoughts: "I don't know, but I think it is very ignorant, cowardly and very ignorant to blame all the panic of Sirius's escape on Harry, and even think it is his fault. It’s disgraceful. Begging for the hero’s rescue, and then pushing the hero out when it’s no longer useful, is too irritating…”

As she spoke, Riley's expression became distorted, and her speechless expression made Cedric laugh. How could she be so cute? Cedric couldn't help but ruffle Riley's hair.

Cedric knew clearly - Riley was usually sweet and sweet-tempered. But if you want to hurt her or the people around her, she will raise all her thorns; and once you get her approval, she will show her soft belly to you. Like a little hedgehog.

Riley had always rubbed other people's hair, and this was the first time someone had her hair rubbed. She couldn't help but look at Cedric in a daze. Under the dim light, the girl's jewel-like eyes were full of surprise, and she looked cute and cute.

Cedric was inexplicably flustered by the girl's eyes. He hurriedly let go and looked away unnaturally. Riley was so crazy that she naturally didn't notice. She just thought silently in her heart - this is what it feels like to have your head touched. I'm so afraid of being touched... It seems that Draco and Daphne will be touched less frequently in the future. If you have your head touched often, you will really be afraid of being touched... No wonder Draco looks uncomfortable every time he touches him.

Neither of them noticed that there was a pair of equally beautiful green eyes looking at them silently. The wind carried the contents of their conversation to Harry's ears. Riley's slightly tolerant and helpless words were also carried into her heart by the wind. Those green eyes were filled with moisture silently, and then they showed that they were upset because of the ambiguous behavior of the two people.

"Harry? Why did you wake up so early?" Riley was quite surprised when she suddenly saw Harry sitting up. Cedric also put away his shyness and looked at Harry.

Harry stumbled and replied: "Uh...I...I'm hungry." As soon as he finished speaking, Harry felt like he was giving himself a big mouth. You really know how to chat.

I'm hungry. This is easy to handle. Riley walked over and took out one or two pieces of candy from her pocket: "Eat it, I bought it at Honeydukes Candy Store yesterday. It should taste good."

Embarrassed to look like he had just woken up and not taken care of himself in front of Riley, Harry took the candy, hurriedly said that he wanted to sleep for a while, and quickly slipped back into bed. Finally, he glanced vaguely towards Cedric. The two boys' eyes briefly met in the air, and then quickly separated.

-----

A new Quidditch match is about to begin. Due to the injury of Malfoy's unlucky guy, the game that was originally Gryffindor vs. Slytherin was changed to a battle between lions and badgers. Riley, Draco and Daphne were sitting in the Slytherin stands, listening to Draco talking about "if he wasn't hurt" and so on.

The game became more and more intense. Riley watched Harry jump into the clouds and then disappear into the sky; while the pair of red-headed bastards were running around the field in red Quidditch uniforms, and the wind blew their clothes. Sound. Riley suddenly remembered that Wood was also on the Gryffindor Quidditch team. He is also Slytherin's Chaser, their opponent. Hey guys, let's talk about my history with the Gryffindor Quidditch team...

Riley's eyes dangled for a while following the Quaffle, sometimes following the Bludgers, and sometimes looking to see if Cedric had found the ball... As she was enjoying watching, something suddenly fell from the sky.

Riley instantly realized that it was Harry. As soon as she pulled out the wand, she heard an old but powerful voice ringing in her ears very penetratingly: "arestomomentum!"

Almost at the same time, Cedric captures the Snitch.

------

Dumbledore was furious. Riley had never seen the kind and lovely old man so angry. He quickly put Harry to bed and drove the dementors out, promising the students that nothing like this would happen again.

Cedric looked frustrated. He requested a rematch. However, the Gryffindors recognized the result and agreed that Cedric was a worthy opponent. Still, Cedric looked a little depressed.

Riley and Cedric have been keeping vigil together for the past two days, and they basically have intimate brother-sister talk time with Cedric every night. Their chats can be many things. Sometimes Riley would tell him about the splendid civilizations in the Muggle world; sometimes Cedric would tell Riley about the once famous characters and stories in the wizarding world...

Today I drew a vigil time of five or six in the morning. This means they can go to bed earlier and make the most of their sleep, as long as they wake up earlier the next day. There are always very few people who get up on time. After finishing their work, they can even go to the lobby to enjoy a rich breakfast while everyone is sleeping. This is the beginning of a wonderful day.

Riley and Cedric chatted happily. Together they talked about everything from poetry to philosophy of life. Riley had to admit - it was really nice to talk to Cedric. He really takes care of others.

While eating with Cedric in the morning, Cedric asked about Chinese food. Riley told him that food in China is not only for eating, but sometimes it is also given many other meanings. For example, rice cake is homophonic to Nian Gao, which means promotion every year; glutinous rice balls represent family reunion; and red beans represent lovesickness. Some young people tie a small red bean-shaped product with a red string and wear it on their lover's hand to indicate that "this person has a master"; fish and yu have the same sound, which means more than every year...

This gentle Mr. Badger never dumps his troubles on others. He's like a badger that everyone loves. Anyone can pick out his hair. But this badger never complains to others that today's fish are dry and salty or that it rained today, and that his hair cannot be dried for a long time.

But today, the sunrise in the morning may be too beautiful, and the big badger also wants to talk to the little snake next to him about his troubles.

Cedric's gentle voice disappeared in the wind: "Riley, do you think I was too weak to win yesterday's game?"

Riley shook her head naturally: "How is that possible? Think about it, is it your fault that dementors appear in school?"

Cedric shook his head.

Riley continued, "Is it your fault that Harry fell off his broom?"

Cedric continued to shake his head.

Riley chased after her: "After you proposed the rematch, they recognized your results. Is this your fault?"

Cedric Diggory the Heartless Shaking Machine shook his head.

"Isn't this the end?" Riley looked at Cedric very seriously: "You didn't do anything wrong from the beginning to the end. Why are you dwelling on the established facts?"
