HP solves the mystery

Chapter 17 Quidditch

The Quidditch match falls on the weekend, and every little wizard is looking forward to it, but it also means they have less time to do homework.

Severus wasn't interested in the competition. He might as well go to the library to read or brew some potions.

There was a seeker in Naihe's dormitory, who woke him up from his sleep early in the morning.

"Severus, wake up, you promised to watch my game!" Regulus shook Severus' arm, obviously not letting him go easily.

Severus sat up in confusion and rubbed his messy hair, as if he had just woken up from a dream.

He yawned, with a look of displeasure on his face, "Regulus, it's still early! I don't want to blow the cold wind so early in the morning!" After saying this, he still got up and walked to the bathroom, almost awake.

Regulus had already finished washing up, and he urged someone to hurry up. He was looking forward to this match a lot, not only because he could fight Sirius, but also because there were people who cared about it who would watch it.

Severus brushed his teeth and rolled his eyes impatiently. Sure enough, he was still a young man with great energy. After adapting to school life, he would sleep in on weekends.

Regulus touched the latest model of broomstick in his hand, and his chances of winning were a little better.

When the two of them walked out of the cellar and arrived on the first floor, there were not many people in the restaurant. The smell of barbecue wafted in the air, which was really appetizing.

Regulus, as the Seeker, was called away by the captain as soon as he showed up. He could only give Severus the binoculars and smiled apologetically, whispering, "Remember to watch my game! I will definitely catch it." From the Golden Snitch!”

Severus nodded, made a cheering gesture, and sat down to eat breakfast.

After a while, more and more people gathered in the restaurant, and the originally peaceful situation was broken by the Gryffindor Quidditch team members who hurried downstairs.

They reached into their pockets with one hand and held the broomstick in the other, eager to ride on the spot in the restaurant. It would be better if they could leave something on Slytherin's face, and Potter was especially excited.

But this is just what Gryffindor people think about, because there have been tragic examples of fighting before. There are several teachers sitting in the restaurant at the moment, especially the serious Professor Meadows and Teacher Huo Qi, who are carefully observing the things here. Every student is prepared to have points deducted.

"Oh, Merlin, why didn't Gryffindor take action this year? Hehe, I knew they were afraid!"

"You are really a troll. Did you forget about being sent to the hospital wing last year? If you are deducted points again, you must not be..."

Severus was eating mashed potatoes, and the rustling sounds of conversation rang in his ears. He had to sigh, the fight between Slytherin and Gryffindor was really fierce now, and when Harry came to school, Those little fights were just a matter of sprinkling water.

The weather outside the castle was sunny but cold, but it still couldn't stop the little wizard's love for Quidditch. Almost all the teachers and students of the school came to the stadium, and the seats were raised into the air. With the help of binoculars, they could barely see the field clearly. Case.

The little wizards excitedly shouted the names of the players on their respective teams, and the sound was very penetrating in the cold wind.

Peter Pettigrew started to curse in a loud voice, and finally stopped when Lupine stopped him.

Severus pressed his forehead with a headache. He was really not used to such a noisy environment, so he agreed to his roommate's request and could only raise his binoculars to look at Regulus.

Mrs. Hooch stood in the middle of the court holding a broomstick. She was the referee of the game.

"I hope everyone will abide by the rules of the game and don't use any tricks!" Seeing the players gathering, Mrs. Huo Qi said sternly with a voice amplification curse. Her voice echoed in the crowded stadium, "Now, let's do it Let’s draw lots.”

Slytherin and Gryffindor lined up on their goal line with clear boundaries, one green and one red. The captain went up to draw lots. Obviously Slytherin was lucky and they had the ball.

"Very good, two captains shake hands! We are about to officially start!" Mrs. Huo Qi looked at the two tall students and blew the whistle.

The two captains glared at each other fiercely, their bodies tensed as they shook hands, and they separated at the first touch.

Sirius glared at his brother Regulus and mouthed, 'Wait for me! '

Regulus blinked and looked back calmly.

"Well, please everyone ride on the broomstick!"

Teacher Huo Qi seemed not to notice the smoke and blew the whistle as hard as he could, "Three, two, one! Lift off!!"

Fifteen flying broomsticks rose from the ground. Mrs. Huo Qi stayed away from the center of the court and watched the players fly high into the sky.

The Quidditch match that the little wizards are looking forward to has officially begun.

"The Quaffle was immediately snatched by James Potter of Gryffindor - what an excellent Chaser that boy is, handsome and handsome -"

"Mike!" Professor McGonagall on the side reminded someone to focus on explaining the game and don't mention anything else.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Professor." Mike Wang is a sixth-grade student of Hufflepuff, but he has quite a few friends in Gryffindor, including Lupin. They love Potter the most.

"Oh, he passed the ball to Means Smith with a quick drift. He is the Chaser who only joined Gryffindor this year. Oh, beautiful! He flew all the way straight to Slytherin's goal - - Well, that's unfortunate - Oops, he got hit in the left shoulder by a Bludger! The Quaffle was stolen by Slytherin - Merlin, that's Barty Crouch Jr! He dove down to hide A Bludger passed - Gryffindor beater Sirius Black miscalculated and missed the target. Means wanted to recover the Bludger, huh? Unfortunately, Means almost succeeded. Already! Barty Jr. used Sirius Black's Bludger to knock down Means! He's so nimble! He's already touched the goal post! Where's the Gryffindor goalkeeper - Kolia dives down - Missed - Slytherin scores!"

Slytherin cheers rang out in the cold sky, mixed with Gryffindor boos and curses.

The game continued, but it was Gryffindor who had the ball, and then it was snatched back by Slytherin, but the Golden Snitch was nowhere to be seen.

"Oh my God, what was that just now? Alecto was riding a broomstick hitting Gryffindor's mad dog!"

"Take a bat and hit him! Pure-blooded traitor! Woo! No, Mrs. Huo Qi has passed!"

Severus' ears twitched, and he moved the camera aimed at Seeker Regulus a few times, and found Sirius, who was rocking on the broom, and Mrs. Hooch, who was flying over on the broom.

Alecto immediately moved away and flew back to Slytherin's stadium.

Severus rubbed his ears and silently put on earplugs to listen.

The game went on smoothly, Slytherin scored one after another; Gryffindor did not show weakness and accelerated its flight speed.

"Come on Potter! Come on Black!" the little lions of Gryffindor shouted, wishing they could take their own lives.

Lily shouted along with them, her little face flushed with excitement. She was also a good player on a broomstick, but she failed in the Quidditch interview. Looking at the heroic appearance of the players on the field, she couldn't help but yearn for it.

When James was chasing the ball, he didn't forget to look at the seats on the court. He saw Lily's beautiful figure, swinging around the court with the Quaffle between her legs. He saw the opportunity and threw it hard. Sirius raised the bat and hit it accurately. It flew towards It hit the goal post and evaded the Slytherin goalkeeper - Gryffindor scored again!

During this period, some people were bleeding and injured, and some were bruised and swollen by the Bludgers, but this did not prevent them from hurting each other on the court to win more points.

Severus looked at the fierce 'battle' on the field and grinned. If it weren't for the magic potion for quick recovery, Quidditch would really be a cruel sport.

Unlike the chaos below, Regulus spent most of his time above the arena, occasionally sliding down to cause chaos for Sirius and Potter. At the same time, he avoided their attacks and flying Bludgers, squinting his eyes to find the golden color. The shadow of the snitch.

After harassing Sirius again, he suddenly saw a flash of golden light, and the golden snitch flew quickly past his feet.

Regulus felt excited and swooped down to chase the golden stream of light.

Apparently it wasn't just him who saw the Snitch, but Tana, the Gryffindor Seeker, also saw it.

The two of them ran side by side towards the Snitch. The chasers of the two teams looked at each other and then used their bodies to block it.

Regulus was obviously faster than Tana - he saw the golden ball flapping its wings and flying across the board. Suddenly, he was knocked off course by Tana, and he almost lost his grip on the broom.

Tana showed a successful smile and reached out to catch the snitch. However, her expression froze in the next second, and the golden snitch jumped far away, and she didn't know where to hide.

"Foul! Foul on Gryffindor!!" Slytherin's little snake shouted indignantly.

Mrs. Hooch angrily scolded Tana, sighing in her heart, after playing Quidditch for so long, how could she do such a stupid thing?

She blew her whistle and ordered the Slytherin team to serve at the goal post.

Slytherin scored an accurate goal and scored 10 points for it.

Slytherin: Thanks Merlin for the gift.

Regulus breathed a sigh of relief, and used his good eyesight to search the stands, hoping to see his roommate.

"Careful! Regulus!" Slytherin's beater knocked a Bludger away, and then went to chase Potter. He was a powerful chaser.

"Thank you..." Before Regulus could finish saying thank you, another Bludger flew towards him. He tried his best to avoid it. The Bludgers passed by his scalp and shoulders. He raised his eyes and saw Reese was smiling proudly and waving the bat in his hand.

"Shift!" Regulus cursed secretly, and flew upwards with the broom, not like a mad dog.

He flew back into the air to look for the Snitch, and Gryffindor Tana was watching eagerly.

The Golden Snitch suddenly flew out of the audience and wandered nimbly on the court.

Regulus and Tana nearly hit the top of the astronomy tower in pursuit of it.

Severus also broke into a cold sweat for him, and secretly made up his mind that in the future, if he had to, he would never ride a broomstick!

Finally, in the last five minutes before the end of the game, Regulus relied on his skillful skills to dive 1 foot off the ground and glide quickly when the Snitch flew away again, and finally caught the Snitch.

"240:180, Slytherin, win!"

"waoooo! we win!"

"Slytherin, Slytherin!"

"We caught the Golden Snitch!"

Slytherin's cheers almost overturned the Quidditch pitch, and the little snakes hugged each other excitedly. He even threw up the small green flag in his hand.

Severus was staggered by the crowd, and he was very happy in his heart. His eyes were fixed on the figure in the field.

Regulus's wanton smile filled his sweaty cheeks, which looked dazzling under the sunlight. His black hair was randomly stuck to the side of his face and neck, and the golden snitch in his hand looked brilliant.

Just like the flamboyant Sirius Black in his original memory, he was arrogant and conceited, but he was full of energy and kindness.

Severus felt a sour feeling in his heart. Looking at the handsome boy who was being hugged around the neck by the team members and hugged him with ease, he felt a sense of exhaustion.

He put the small flag in his hand into his pocket and began to reflect on how he mistook this child for a kind, cowardly and harmless little snake.

Gryffindor obviously couldn't accept the defeat in this game. They also threw things, but they just threw garbage on the field. They would rather lose to Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff than lose to Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff. Evil Slytherin!

Severus put down his binoculars and sighed lowly. The Quidditch competition lasted from November to April of the following year.

This means that he still has to watch many games, but at that time, he will not come no matter what.

He rubbed his frozen cheeks. He would have stayed in the library if he had known it, but even with the warming spell, he still felt cold.

On the court, Mrs. Huo Qi blew the whistle hard and used magic battle to separate the two teams of little wizards who were mixed together. They had to separate and they were about to start fighting.

Potter was relieved when the situation calmed down, scratched his messy hair, and looked at Sirius' livid face. He was really afraid that Sirius would directly use the wand to cast a curse on his brother.

Professor Slughorn and Professor McGonagall came off the stage to help send the injured to the hospital wing. Dumbledore calmly took a sip of sweet tea. He was used to this scene. You must know that he is 94 years old, regardless of the students he has taken care of. Its number.

When the little wizards in the stands saw the game end, they all exited in an orderly manner and took away all the trash together, which made Filch's job much easier.

Seeing that Regulus had also been sent to the hospital wing, Severus canceled the ear-blocking spell and walked slowly among the crowd. Unexpectedly, he heard the praises and past praises of the little snakes about Regulus. The praise for his deeds made him feel more doubtful.

He didn't go back to the dormitory immediately, but went to the library. People who have too much homework can't afford to be hurt. He must choose fewer classes next semester. He doesn't have Hermione's time turner.

It just made me more and more upset. After Slytherin won the game, Gryffindor seemed to hate this 'enemy' house even more.

Severus was thrown the 'Pimple Curse', the 'Hairy Curse', the 'Ear Cramp Curse' several times during his journey to the library...

Although he dodged and fought back, it didn't change his idea of ​​going to the library. Mad, the college was really influenced by Lao Deng.
