Chapter 42 Shadow on the Stadium

After Slytherin's little move, Gryffindor began to explode, especially Ron's brothers. The twins' tacit understanding allowed them to often play with the Slytherin players who came to defend them at will, and then score easily. .It has to be said that no matter how much Ron hated his brother who liked to tease others, when George and Fred scored, Ron's hands almost turned red.

Just like that, throughout the stadium, the cheers of Gryffindors echoed in the cold sky, mixed with the roars and groans of Slytherins.

"Borrow the light, borrow the light, give way." A tall figure squeezed over.

"Hagrid"

Ryan and Hermione squeezed each other to make room for Hagrid to sit in. Hagrid directly squeezed Seamus and others into a ball, and they all looked at each other with distasteful faces.

"I just watched it in my hut," Hagrid said, patting the big telescope hanging around his neck. "But the atmosphere is different from watching the game in the crowd. The Snitch is nowhere to be seen, is he?"

"I didn't see it," Ron said excitedly with a blush on his face, "Harry still has nothing to do."

"The only thing Harry has to do now is to avoid the attack from Slytherin." Hermione frowned and added as she looked at Harry hiding in the sky.

"As long as you don't get into trouble, you're lucky." Hagrid said, raising the telescope and looking hard at a small dot in the sky, that was Harry.

Harry was very high in the air, sliding lightly over the arena, squinting his eyes to avoid the opponent's attacks while trying hard to search for the shadow of the snitch.It was part of the game plan he and Wood developed.

"You hide aside first and wait until you see the snitch," Wood said. "We don't want you to be attacked early."

After Angelina scored again, Harry rolled up and down to express his joy.Of course, after celebrating, he went back to looking for the Snitch.Once, he suddenly saw a flash of gold, but it was just the reflection of the watch of one of the Weasley twins; another time, a Bludger decided to rush towards him, looking like a cannonball , but Harry dodged and Fred came after the ball.

"It's okay, Harry," Fred just yelled before hitting the ball hard toward Marcus Flint.

"The Slytherin team has the ball," said Lee Jordan. "Chaser Pusey lowered his head to avoid two bludgers, and then avoided the Weasley twins and Chaser Bell. He ran towards, wait a minute, then Is it a snitch?"

Adrian Pusey only turned his head to look at a golden light flying past his left ear, missing the Quaffle. There was a murmur among the crowd. Obviously, the appearance of the Golden Snitch made all the audience excited. stand up.

Harry was no exception and saw the Snitch.He felt excited and swooped down, chasing the golden stream of light.Slytherin's Seeker Terrence Higgins also saw it.The two of them ran side by side towards the Snitch, and everyone else seemed to be still. The Chasers seemed to have forgotten what they should be doing, and hung in the air one by one, watching.

Harry was faster than Higgins. His whole body was pressed against the broomstick. He could see the little ball flying in front of him with its wings flapping. He accelerated his speed suddenly, " "Bang!" There was an angry roar from the Gryffindors below. Marcus Flint deliberately collided with Harry. Harry's broomstick suddenly deviated from the direction, but Harry held on to it tightly.

"Foul" shouted the Gryffindors.

Obviously, when they discovered that Harry was so close to the Golden Snitch, Slytherin once again resorted to foul play. Ron, Hagrid and others in the stands were constantly cursing the Slytherin captain, watching Ron En looked angry, as if he hoped to drag Marcus Flint down and give him a beating.

Mrs. Hooch angrily scolded Flint, then ordered Gryffindor to take a free kick at the goal post.But of course, in the chaos, the Snitch disappeared from sight again.

In the stands, Dean Thomas shouted: "Send him off, the referee gives a red card."

"This isn't football, Dean," Ron reminded him. "You can't send people off in Quidditch. And what's a red card?"

"A red card is a tool used by referees to send off foul players in football matches in the Muggle world." Ryan said from the sidelines.

"They should change the rules of the game and learn from the Muggle ball, oh, the rules of football. Flint almost knocked Harry down in the air." Hagrid agreed with Dean's opinion.

During the discussion, the commentator Li Qiaodan felt that it was difficult for him to be impartial. After all, with his personality, he would definitely say a lot of biased words, just like now.

"In this way, after the obvious and despicable cheating just now,"

"Jordan" Sure enough, Professor McGonagall growled.

"I mean, after that public and offensive foul play,"

"Jordan, let me remind you."

"Okay, okay. Flint almost killed Gryffindor's Seeker. I believe this happens to everyone, so Gryffindor's penalty was taken by Arya. She Pass the ball, it goes smoothly, the game continues, Gryffindor still controls the ball." Jordan had no choice but to continue to focus on the player with the ball.

Ryan didn't look at Harry and the others anymore, but focused on the professors in the stands.Ryan noticed that Professor Snape was staring at Harry intently, obviously worried about Harry's safety.Quirrell, on the other hand, was still sitting there as timidly as before, as if he was always worried about the safety of the players.

Ryan watched like this for a while, and then began to look at the entire stadium. Suddenly, a black shadow flashed past, and suddenly an alarm bell rang in Ryan's heart, as if something terrible was going to happen, but Ryan didn't Without a clue, he didn't even see clearly what the black shadow was. In desperation, Ryan had no choice but to retract his attention, and took out the wand and held it in his right hand, so as not to have time to cast a spell.

In the sky, Harry is still trying hard to search for the Golden Snitch, but the Golden Snitch is too small and too fast. Harry has found nothing now. Of course, the same is true for Slytherin. Everyone is attacking with all their strength. , while keeping an eye on the movements of Harry and Slytherin's seekers.
