Chapter 1064 Gryffindor’s Plan
For some reason, George and Fred's "compensatory" break was canceled.
Seeing the Weasley twins walking out of the office, Sirius' joy in bullying "little friends" disappeared.
"This is simply outrageous!" He clenched his fists and said indignantly, "They are only in the fourth grade! Next year will be the fifth grade, and they start discussing marriage at the age of 16? Arthur Weasley doesn't care about these boys, does he? Aren’t you worried about affecting their O.W.Ls results?”
"Well, I think Mr. Weasley should know. After all, the engagement requires the consent of both parents..."
Professor Lupine said quietly, while putting away the teacups on the desk, looking at Sirius angrily.
"Let's face it, Padfoot. We don't have much to teach them in terms of life experience - the best we can do is tell them some of our regrets so they don't repeat the same mistakes. But honestly, these two little kids The guy’s character, luck, and courage are pretty good.”
Their original free night tour time was much later than that of the twin brothers.
Even with James Potter's invisibility cloak, Lupine and his friends were not able to wander around the school so smoothly.
However, the Weasley twins are different. They got the "Hogwarts full picture plug-in" in their first grade.
What's even more outrageous is that due to the defeat in the "Potato Battle" last year, Gryffindor House, as the loser, took the opportunity to break into Ravenclaw. And George Weasley even became the prefect of Ravenclaw House, and even fast forwarded to getting engaged during the holidays. Even Sirius had to admit that he had such incredible luck. A little bit of jealousy...
"Moon Face, we have to come up with something real for this special training!"
Sirius Black punched the palm of his hand, "Don't let those two little guys see the joke, let's total it up - no one knows our magic level back then, so we set it directly based on N.E.W.Ts - Lest they become complacent..."
"Then what if they succeed?" Lupine turned to look at Sirius.
"No way," said Sirius.
He jumped up from the sofa, rushed to his desk and started to find paper and pen.
You know, even though he wasted ten years in Azkaban, his magical attainments have not deteriorated at all.
Without any entertainment or social activities, the most thing Sirius did in Azkaban was reminisce about his school days.
Only by constantly thinking back to those happy and positive times could he stay awake in a prison surrounded by dementors - from the first grade to the seventh grade graduation - a long time enough for him to remember all the past years. Break it into bits and chew it.
Just recently, Professor Dumbledore suddenly mentioned that he should take some time to try to sort out a training plan for members of the "Order of the Phoenix".
Sirius planned to take this opportunity to directly combine the specialties of the four of them back then, plus some of the areas of expertise of other members of the Order of the Phoenix, to create a job that would be substantial enough for the two little guys to return to the dormitory and sleep together. The special training of the devil while sleeping.
…
And at the same time.
On the other side, the Gryffindor House common room.
Under the temptation of food, the Weasley twins returned to the lounge and effortlessly attracted everyone's attention.
Because they often go in and out of the kitchen to steal food or carry various prohibited magic props, Fred and George are even better at the traceless extension spell than most seventh-grade graduates. They can easily carry it in various pockets. , stuff a lot of things into the small bag.
The tables and chairs were piled with mountains of cakes and pies, as well as jugs of pumpkin juice and butterbeer.
Waves of cheers and noises erupted in the lounge. Whether or not there was a midnight snack was directly related to whether tonight's discussion was enjoyable or not.
In this fiery atmosphere, even if he knew that George and Fred were out for a night out after curfew, Percy Weasley could only give a few symbolic warnings, and then he was surrounded by a lot of people from all directions. The pies and sausages that arrived made my mouth gag - this was almost the custom every time.
Gryffindor wizards will spontaneously protect the "heroes" who generously give themselves precious midnight snacks.
Of course, this title of "late night hero" does not mean that you are immune to all harm.
"Why have you been gone for so long? What happened?"
Angelina Johnson frowned and poked Fred while George was distributing food among the crowd.
Maybe others didn't notice it, but as Fred's girlfriend, she naturally noticed that Fred and George's night outing lasted at least twice as long as before, and more importantly, her intuition and observation told her , something must have happened to Fred and the others.
"Well--"
Fred looked around, leaned against Angelina's ear, and lowered his voice.
"We were caught! On our way back, Professor Lupine and Professor Black teamed up to block us."
"Don't get so close! You—forget it, judging from your expression, it doesn't seem like something bad is happening?"
The earlobe was suddenly attacked by warm breath. Angelina subconsciously wanted to hide, but after looking at the noisy lounge, she could only endure the weird feeling and glared at Fred, who looked innocent. , lowered his voice and asked quickly, "Then, do it quickly, don't show off!"
"Well, on the surface, we're incarcerated—"
Fred shrugged, glanced at Angelina who was twisting like a feather under her butt, and silently praised Bill.
As the eldest brother in the family, since he learned that the two of them were in love, Bill didn't know where he got a "Love Book", which introduced various techniques in detail. Although the subsequent chapters have not been unlocked for the time being, only Those initial tips were enough for Fred to complete a reversal in a critical moment. As for George, progress was faster. He was almost eaten directly by the senior girl in Ravenclaw.
"However, we are actually going to participate in special training before the 'match', which starts at nine o'clock every night."
Fred said proudly, pointing to the event notice on the bulletin board in the lounge.
"In the 2v2 arena, if we can directly defeat 1 and 2 without attrition, then we will get 4 points - in this way, among the 1V1 confrontations between the three grades in front, Gryffindor only needs to win one game to win the match. Point, win two games and win directly.”
The college competition consists of three competitions, two group competitions, and one team competition.
The calculation method of points is: each victory in the competition is 1 point, the group competition is 4 points minus the "number of knockouts" of both sides, the team competition is much simpler and rougher, the winner directly gets 5 points, if in the end If the scores are the same, one person from each side will compete in a 1V1 final battle.
Because of this, theoretically speaking, the group competition can be said to be the round with the largest "operable space".
"...Every night?" Angelina repeated, seeming worried.
"Don't worry, I will stay with you more during the day, don't worry-"
Fred said shamelessly, although Angelina is usually a bit strong, she is still a girl who has just fallen in love.
"And I guess it's only one or two hours a day at most, and there just aren't many people in the lounge at night. If you want, we can sneak out for a date, anyway, with Professor Black's cover, just stagger Filch's shift time , we have quite a lot of dating time every day.”
"Who, who wants to date this guy like you every day! Come over here, come over here -"
Looking at the face that was getting closer and closer, Angelina felt that her earlobes were completely red, and she stepped on Fred hard.
"I'm just a little worried about the Quidditch training. After all, there is a game on Saturday - in this case, our Quidditch training chaser will be absent this week, and we will play against them on Saturday. Team Hufflepuff, we have to find a way to contain Hannah..."
"Don't worry about this. I heard from Wood that the head coach will play in Saturday's game."
Fred said, looking at Elena who was talking quietly in the corner of the lounge, and lowered his voice slightly.
"Hufflepuff is one of the favorites to win the championship this year. If they can lose two games in a row and reach the bottom half, then there is a high probability that they will compete with the 'All-Star Team' for tickets to the finals, so holding two If we win the game, we can choose an easy target between the 'Freshmen Team' and 'Slytherin' - this will give us the initiative to change the schedule at any time, thereby disrupting the preparations of other teams."
Due to the outrageous performance of a certain white-haired witch on the Quidditch field, Elena was restricted from participating in school competitions starting this year.
Apart from daily sparring time, she only has one chance to appear on the Quidditch pitch as a player.
In the expectations of most teams, there is a high probability that the Gryffindor team will choose to use Elena in a life-and-death battle or at the end of the knockout round to make the final decision. However, as a Quidditch expert, Oliver Wood Apparently there are other ideas.
You know, strictly speaking, Elena's "Gryffindor blood" is only about a quarter.
If you face other Quidditch teams in a critical game, except for the freshman team and the All-Star team, whether it is Slytherin or Hufflepuff, the public opinion and atmosphere of the two colleges will still be a big problem - especially Hufflepuff. Team Odd, if you look at the weekly sleep distribution, Elena is obviously more inclined to Hufflepuff. If they meet in the semi-finals or finals, it will undoubtedly be a cruel choice.
In comparison, there are not so many concerns when meeting during the regular season.
The most important thing is that in the last round of competition, Hufflepuff College suffered an upset loss to the freshman team.
"Well, so we just let Hufflepuff enter the losers group, right?"
Before Fred could continue to explain more, Angelina quickly understood Oliver Wood's general strategy.
"In this case, in the playoffs, they may have to fight from the bottom all the way up - no matter the victory or defeat, they can at least help us knock down other teams and have enough time with us. It’s a good idea to get it fixed.”
"Then, there's only one thing left..."
Angelina glanced at Fred, picked up a sausage patty from the edge of the chair and put it to his mouth.
"If you and George can win the weekend match, then the next time you go to Hogsmeade Village, I will accompany you the whole time, whether it is a date at Mrs. Padiff's teahouse or a visit to Zuko Joke shop - I'll treat you to everything..."
After a few minutes, the lively lounge gradually became quiet, and the Gryffindor match roster was officially decided.
Singles Match: Ginny Weasley, Harry Potter, McCulloch McLagan
Doubles Tournament: George Weasley, Fred Weasley; Orianna Refik, Fiona Laurent
Team competition: Bill Weasley, Charlie Weasley, Percy Weasley, Oliver Wood, Malcolm Graves
As the entry list for Hogwarts' first "House Tournament", apart from the high "Weasley content", this lineup can be regarded as the most powerful collection of Gryffindors in each grade today - many people He was even ambitious enough to seal away Slytherin House.
At the same time, Slytherin House.
"Hey, Aphelios, Drizzt, the organization's reply has arrived——"
Gerald Howard shook the envelope in his hand and showed a meaningful smile.
"In competitive sports competitions, there is no superior-subordinate relationship. Deliberately showing off is an insult to the opponent - we can let go during team competitions, and then there will be senior members paying attention to the game situation. This will serve as our guide to becoming a regular player. Part of the practical assessment.”
In the foundation, there are not many opportunities to beat up your immediate superiors openly and openly.
Not to mention, it was the stingy, troublesome Mr. Manager from Gringotts.
