Take things as they come at Hogwarts
Chapter 43
The next morning, Harry woke up and sat in bed in a daze.
"What's wrong with you, Harry?" asked Ron.
"Nothing, just dreaming that I was put under a coma spell by Locke last night. Harry said in a daze.
"Ugh...... It's a game today, you hurry up, let's go to the auditorium for a bite to eat. Ron changed the subject.
"Okay, Ron. Harry slapped his face and cheered up.
It's still a bitterly cold day, only the common room and auditorium are very warm, and the rest of the place is a little cold.
In this cold weather, it is a pleasure to be able to have a hot meal in the auditorium.
But Harry couldn't eat anything.
Hermione and Ron took turns in battle, coaxing and deceiving, but they still couldn't get the nervous Harry to eat.
In the end, it was Locke who persuaded Harry to drink a large bowl of soup like a potion of potions, so that he did not go into battle on a completely empty stomach.
Locke can understand the pressure of Harry, first year, savior, Gryffindor's most promising year in 5 years!
If Harry can lead Gryffindor to win the Quidditch Cup, then Gryffindor has a good chance of winning the House Cup this year!
Even Percy was watched by his twin brothers, so he didn't come to Harry's side and make any "encouraging speech from the prefect".
"Alright, Harry, it's time to get ready to play. Trust me, Harry, you're going to catch the Golden Snitch!" Locke smiled at Harry, stunned not only Harry and Hermione, but also the other little wizards who happened to be looking at him.
Harry felt his whole body fill with strength.
Only Hermione, who came to her senses, was a little worried.
Locke's charisma radiates too widely, which is not good.
Please, Locke!
You hurry up and grow up, and have more boys who are tough and handsome, instead of smiling to charm other boys with X!
......
Quidditch arenas, flags, and heat waves.
It seems that even the cold weather is afraid of the enthusiasm of the little wizards.
All the teachers and students of the school have come here, although there are only a few hundred people, but if you use magic, you can create an atmosphere of thousands of people, right?
Locke was a little speechless, originally surprised at how there were so many students in the school when he watched the movie, it turned out that the front rows of the audience were dummies.
Hogwarts really know how to play!
Hermione in the audience, because of the cold, almost stuck to Locke.
She puffed at her palms and asked Locke, "Why are people so fanatical about Quidditch?"
She was a little shocked by the atmosphere.
At the same time, she did not forget that Locke had refused to go to the library with Harry many times because he wanted to play Quidditch with Harry and them.
Seriously, she's a little jealous.
"Hermione, you must know that although Hogwarts is a school, its predecessor was a castle built to defend against foreign invasions.
So it has all kinds of secret passages, so it has small windows and high parapet walls.
Living in it, although there is a sense of security, there is also a feeling of being in prison.
Therefore, the little wizards are especially eager to go outside. Whether it's Quidditch or Hogsmeade Week in the senior year, it's a great opportunity for everyone to let off steam!" Locke explained.
"Oh, that's it. Indeed, compared to Muggle schools, where there are big windows everywhere and everywhere is bright, it's really a bit oppressive here. By the way, Locke, I heard, you bet on Garon!" Hermione finally stopped beating around the bend and asked directly.
"Ugh. You have a twist on the subject...... It's too blunt. Well, I did bet on Garon, though, didn't I let Ron's brothers keep it a secret, why would you know?".
"I always have some way. Hermione said perfunctorily.
When Ron heard this, he was also interested: "Locke, how much have you pressed?"
"All net worth. "
"Awesome, you must bet on Gryffindor to win, right?".
"No, I'm betting Harry can catch the Golden Snitch!".
"You...... Awesome!".
"It's crazy, Locke, even if I believe Harry can win, but it's the first time Harry has ...... after all to catch the Snitch" Hermione couldn't believe that Locke was gambling and gambling so big!
It's a bad habit and it must be corrected.
"I don't understand how much difference there is. I've already investigated, and basically all Hogwarts matches are won by the side that catches the Golden Snitch. After all, the gap of 150 points is not so easy to pull away. Locke explained.
"But it's not like it's been like that, even if the game lasted for a few days. Locke, what is your entire net worth?" Ron couldn't help but ask.
"20 Galleons?".
"20 Galleons! How can there be so many?" Ron was surprised, his entire net worth combined was less than one Galleon, which he had saved for a long time.
"The Ministry of Magic's grant to orphaned young wizards. 20 Gallons per year. "
"Oh, that's right. "
"Locke, you shouldn't spend this money indiscriminately, although the school will subsidize school supplies, but you can only count on 20 Galleons for other daily necessities. Moreover, after graduation, ......".
"Hermione, don't worry. I'll feed myself with potions. Locke really didn't want to start listening to this kind of chatter in the first grade, so he said perfunctorily.
As for graduation, what is there after graduation? I, Rock Chen, will never graduate.
"Potions ......" Hearing Locke's answer, Hermione couldn't help but ponder.
Although Locke was under Snape's tutelage, becoming a Potions Master was a sure thing.
But doesn't Locke know that Snape is most likely the Dark Wizard everyone is wary of?
If Snape is caught within this year and imprisoned in Azkaban, who will instruct Locke in Potions?
Or is it that Locke has actually ruled out Snape's suspicion a long time ago, but he has been hiding it from everyone?
Speaking of which, Locke was sometimes mysterious.
It's so annoying, why can't you confide all your secrets to me?
The little witch was very unhappy with Locke's concealment.
Her possessiveness and desire to control are quite strong.
"So what's the odds, if Harry catches the Golden Snitch?" Ron didn't think that much, he was more concerned about Locke's gamble.
"Ten for one. Obviously, although everyone was looking forward to Harry on the surface, they were not optimistic about him at all. I feel very unhappy, so I have to make the guys and the dealer who failed to suppress Harry suffer a little!" Locke smiled dangerously.
It's the happy smile of a betting dog.
"But if you do win, it's 200 gold Galleons, do you think the dealer can come up with that many gold Galleons?" exclaimed Ron.
"Ron, your two older brothers told me that the dealer is a pure-blood member of a Ravenclaw family, and he has the family's estate behind him, which is a small amount of money.
Moreover, he vouched for the credibility of the family business, and he couldn't rely on it.
Of course, if you really pay the bills, it will be your brothers who are responsible for the accounts, and I promise to give them 10 Galleons after getting the money. "
"Oh, 10 Galleons, Merlin, I've never seen so much money!" Ron almost shouted.
"Ron, your brothers will only get the money if Locke wins the bet!" reminded Hermione.
"Yes, Harry, it's all up to you. Ron whispered.
"You didn't understand me, Ron. I mean, you shouldn't gamble! No one can guarantee that you'll always win, and if you lose, you're going to go bankrupt!Locke, you're not allowed to gamble in the future, or I'll tell Professor McGonagall!".
"Oh, Miss Granger, this is a lore, you really caught my Golden Snitch! Well, I promise, this is the last time. Locke said reluctantly.
Alas, the good thrill game is gone.
If Hermione had told Professor McGonagall that she had taken the grant she had given her to gamble, she would still bet in full!
In that case, Locke would probably be turned into a button and hung around her collar in no time
Sometimes, Hermione really knows how to take care of people's weaknesses.
He is worthy of being a politician of the future, and his heart is so black!
