Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 744: Firebolt
Chapter 745 Firebolt
As long as Professor McGonagall writes a letter to the Quidditch boutique and explains why, I don't think the Quidditch boutique will hide it.
If the Firebolt was really a Christmas gift from Sirius Black to Potter, the other party would definitely not be able to walk into the Quidditch boutique, and could only order it by mail.
Under normal circumstances, as long as the Firebolt is sent directly to Potter by the Quidditch boutique without anyone else's hand, there is basically no other problem with the Firebolt.
Hermione remembered the advice Albert gave, and could not help but quicken her pace and walked towards Professor McGonagall's office on the second floor of the castle.
"Anything, Miss Granger?"
Professor McGonagall opened the door and looked at Hermione standing outside the door with some surprise.
"It's like this..."
Hermione quickly repeated Albert's advice to Professor McGonagall.
"You're right. I'll take the time to go to a Quidditch boutique someday. If it's true, I'll save a lot of trouble." Professor McGonagall agreed with Hermione's suggestion. A Quidditch boutique is sure to keep a record of the purchase of something as valuable as the Firebolt.
Not long ago, Wood also visited.
Professor McGonagall can actually understand everyone's desire for that Firebolt, eager for it to bring victory to the Gryffindor team, but she can't risk Potter's life.
After her opinion was acknowledged by Professor McGonagall, Hermione felt her heart beat faster and her mood became happy.
After saying goodbye to Professor McGonagall, Hermione turned and left.
The corridors of the castle are long and cold.
Hermione strolled down the corridor, remembering Albert's comfort to her just now, and sighed softly.
She knew Harry and Ron's personalities very well, and never expected them to be as gentle and reliable as Albert, but sometimes Hermione wished that they would be more mature, even though it was almost delusional .
Honestly, Albert feels more like a confidant than Harry and Ron.
Hermione suddenly understood why Ginny was so fascinated by Tom Riddle's diary, it was such a good feeling to have a gentle, reliable and understanding confidant.
She also understands a bit why so many girls in the school adore him so much.
I was luckier than Ginny in some ways.
Professor McGonagall didn't take too long to verify Hermione's guess.
A few days later, Professor McGonagall appeared in the Gryffindor common room, and she immediately attracted everyone's attention, or what Professor McGonagall was holding in her hand, attracted everyone's attention. attention.
People crowded around almost at once, asking nonsense about the Firebolt in Professor McGonagall's hand.
"Where's Potter? Who among you saw him?" Professor McGonagall asked, pushing away from the crowd.
Everyone looked at each other, trying to find the whereabouts of Harry Potter in the common room.
"Harry's not here, Professor Lupin seems to want to teach him how to defend against Dementors." Ron stood up, staring straight at the Firebolt, and couldn't help asking, "Professor , is the Firebolt all right?"
"Yes, there is no curse attached to the Firebolt." Professor McGonagall nodded, just wanting Ron to pass the Firebolt to Harry, but he felt that it was not very reliable. Albert, who was beside him, beckoned, "Mr. Anderson, please give the Firebolt to Potter, and don't let them break the broom."
Albert was a little stunned and didn't understand what Professor McGonagall gave him the Firebolt. After all, Harry Potter's good friends Ron and Hermione were both here, and it was obviously better to give them to him than to himself. more suitable.
After Professor McGonagall left, all the students gathered around, obviously eager to see Harry Potter's Firebolt.
"Albert, can you show us the Firebolt, you know, everyone is curious about the Firebolt." Wood reached out and stopped Albert's shoulder, "After you give it to Harry before, you can put it on the table for everyone to see.
"Oh, of course you can, just get out of the way!"
Albert took out his wand from his pocket, waved it lightly, and turned into two support brackets. Then he placed the Firebolt on an empty table, and placed the sign on the outside.
Next, Albert waved his wand again, propped up a glass-like barrier again, and wrapped the Firebolt inside.
"You can take a look here, if you want to feel the Firebolt, or try to ride the Firebolt, I suggest you can wait for Potter to get back, ask him for his opinion, I think Potter shouldn't refuse." With that, Albert pushed aside the crowd and went back to the chair by the fireplace to continue stroking the cat.
There was a wailing sound in the common room, and many students were complaining that Albert was nosy.
"Thank you, if it wasn't for your suggestion, Professor McGonagall would never have returned the Firebolt to Harry so quickly." Hermione sat next to Albert with Crookshanks in her arms, looking at the crowd the crowd said.
"I think Professor McGonagall will return the Firebolt to Harry before the Gryffindor game, she has played Quidditch before and is more eager for Gryffindor to win. "Albert took out a packet of dried fish from his pocket, tore the wrapping paper, and handed one of them to Tom, while the other stretched out in front of Crookshanks, shook it slightly, and tried to use it. Food attracts its attention.
Tom actually threw down the dried fish, stared at the cat in front of him, and made a vigilant sound in his mouth.
"Okay, don't be so stingy, it'll be annoying." Albert scratched Tom's head and made it quiet.
Crookshanks stared at Tom, then looked at the dried fish, finally opened his mouth to take the dried fish, and ran to Hermione's feet to eat.
"Crookshanks seems to like eating this, maybe I should buy him some so he doesn't stare at Ron's mouse all day." Hermione picked up Crookshanks and helped him get along hair.
Crookshanes likes to go to Scabbers' trouble, much to Hermione's annoyance. Because of this, her relationship with Ron turned sour.
"No, I don't think it's the food issue, your pig cat is staring at Scabbers." Ron said angrily, "It has a problem with Scabbers, if you want to kill Scabbers, you should learn from Able Instead of letting it roam around the castle."
"Also, there's nothing wrong with that Firebolt." Ron left angrily.
"Isn't that great? At least Harry can use it safely."
Hermione looked a little depressed.
"Young people are like this, no one is willing to admit defeat." Albert opened his mouth to break the repressed atmosphere around him.
"Speaking like you're very old~IndoMTL.com~ Hermione was amused by Albert's words and couldn't help asking: "Have you ever had a fight with your girlfriend? "
"No." Albert put Tom on the table, watched the interaction between the two cats, and said calmly, "Actually, I don't think it's a big deal to quarrel occasionally, but we all know we need to What, so I can't quarrel at all."
Hermione was a little embarrassed. She knew she shouldn't ask such a question, so she quickly changed the subject and asked, "What if Harry can't master the Patronus Charm in a short time?"
"You should have confidence in Potter, he is the savior, I don't think it can't be difficult for him." Albert smiled and comforted.
"I don't think Harry likes being told that," Hermione muttered, "I've been practicing the Patronus Charm, too, but it's harder to master than I expected, and it's hard for me to imagine Harry How can I master it in a short time."
"Actually, you don't have to worry at all. Dumbledore won't let what happened last time happen again, so even if you can't master the Patronus Charm temporarily, you don't have to worry about running into problems during a Quidditch match." Albert bent over He picked up Tom and continued, "For Potter, the meaning of learning the Patronus is more to resist the influence of dementors on him, rather than to prevent the appearance of dementors in the game."
