Others wouldn't think so much, and Ron directly thought that the two of them were of the same breed and working together.
And Harry said that he had naively thought that he could not hate any teacher in the world more than Snape, but now he had to admit that Snape had found a strong competitor.
Umbridge's heart is undoubtedly malevolent, she is a wicked, perverted, crazy old woman.
Harry's confinement continues, and Professor McGonagall intervenes to no avail.
She took out the black quill again on Tuesday night, but Harry was pleasantly surprised that it hadn't worked...
Then Harry thought that Ivan said she would find a way, maybe he made the quill lose its magic power.While this might not be decisive, and Umbridge could replace one soon, at least he will not be subject to such a terrible punishment during his confinement.
Umbridge also quickly discovered this. Disappointed and puzzled, she did not let Harry go, and asked him to copy the sentence "I must not lie" repeatedly, writing three parchments , until it was close to zero before letting him go back...
Chapter 948 Letter from Sirius
Harry had to go to solitary confinement with Umbridge every night, which left him no time to finish his homework.
Because it is the 0.W.Ls year, the fifth grade has a lot of homework this year, which is reflected in the first week of school.
Snape's dissertation on the properties of moonstone and its use in medicine is pretty damning, not to mention Professor Binns' dissertation on giant wars, Umbridge's non-aggressive approach to magical attacks The paper on the reason for the reaction, Professor Flitwick asked to design a breaking spell, Professor McGonagall's disappearing spell, sketches for Bowtruckle, Professor Trelawney recorded the content of dreams every night, Sprout taught the analysis of herbal toxicity papers...
These assignments add up and pile up like a mountain, which is a disaster.
Fred and George said it had been a tough year, and it looked like it was.
The fifth year students were complaining, and even Hermione was having a hard time, spending more time in the library than ever before.
Not to mention Harry, who has been locked up by Umbridge, this week, he dragged his exhausted body back to the Gryffindor common room after midnight every night, even though he was so tired that he had no strength at all. But instead of going to bed, I open my book and start doing my homework.
On Tuesday he had assignments for Professors Binns, Flitwick and Trelawney.
On Wednesday, Harry had to write until three o'clock in the middle of the night because the paper on the moonstone that Snape had assigned was due on Thursday.
In the end, he had no idea what he was writing, and just mechanically copied the words from the book.
He knew he was bad at writing, but there was nothing he could do about it.
He had to turn in something, otherwise he would be imprisoned by Snape.
Then, he hurriedly answered a few questions that Professor McGonagall had assigned them, and put together some things on the appropriate parts of the Bowtruckle, ready to use them to deal with Professor Graplan, before staggering to bed.
Harry didn't even take off his clothes, he fell down on the quilt, and immediately fell into a deep sleep.
It is conceivable that in his state the next day, he might faint at any time.
Looking tired and groggy at Harry's side was Ron, who practiced every night as he was trying out for Gryffindor Keeper.
In order not to make Fred and George laugh, he usually sneaked out after everyone was asleep.
Ron didn't want people to know, but this couldn't be hidden from Harry, who was sleeping more and more late, and Ivan.
There are not so many homework from the fourth grade, but there are many things that Aiwen needs to study here.
In addition to the original magic research content, it is necessary to add the black quill and make a new flying broom.He has also made an appointment for the weekend. On Saturday, he will bring the first-year students to familiarize themselves with the campus, and on Sunday, he will help Hermione and the others practice magic and improve their strength.
So after Ron's first practice, they knew what he was doing sneakily in the hallway with a broom.
After repeated questioning, Ron finally said the matter with some embarrassment.
No one laughed at him, both Ivan and Harry encouraged Ron to participate in the goalkeeper selection.
Alvin also helped him enchant the Quaffles so they kept flying towards him.
It may be because the magic power is too strong. The next day, Hermione knew that Ron was secretly practicing this, because his face was bruised and purple, and there was no way to hide it. It was all hit by the Quaffle. Mark of……
In addition, Ivan also promised Ron that he would make the first broom before Planet Five.
Now that the main part was complete, Hermione and Ginny were responsible for the rest of the assembly, and Colin joined in with great interest.
The traditional flying broom has the habit of naming stars to represent its unimaginable speed.
After discussion, they planned to call this newly made flying broomstick "Asterisker".
At present, Zhaixing is only a test product, but the performance shown has already made people look forward to it.
It's also worth mentioning that Ivan's letter requesting Lavie's help was also mailed out. When he went to the school's owl room early in the morning to choose an owl that went to Egypt, the administrator Filch followed him walked in.
His sunken, veined cheeks were flushed purple, the pendant on his chin was shaking non-stop, and his thin gray hair was in a mess. He obviously ran all the way, and the purpose was very clear, just to intercept Ivan and prepare to mail it out of this letter.
The reason Filch gave was ridiculous, because he got information that Ivan planned to order a large number of big dung eggs.
He gritted his teeth complacently, and asked Ivan to hand over the letter inside for him to check.
Ivan ignored him and let the brown owl leave in front of Filch.
"I can't hand it in, I've already left!" He said calmly, watching the owl flying farther and farther.
"You, you, you..." Filch said, his facial features contorted with anger, "How dare you let the owl go away?!"
"Because your information is inaccurate, I didn't order the big dung eggs. This is just my private letter. Hogwarts has no regulations. The castle administrator has the right to check the students' private letters." Ivan said.
"Nonsense, that letter is the evidence that you ordered the big dung eggs. I have my own sources of information." Filch said.
"I think my status as the head boy at the school guarantees that I don't order those things."
"I'll tell the professor about it, if it smells like shit..." Filch finally backed off, and he thumped downstairs.
Mrs. Norris glanced at him, then at the owls with reluctance.
Filch has undoubtedly gone over to Umbridge, and it's just one of many crazy changes going on at Hogwarts.
You know, after the basilisk incident, Filch has been getting along with Aiwen pretty well.
He would turn a blind eye to some small things, but at the beginning of this semester, he completely stood on the opposite side of Ivan and the others.
Umbridge must have asked him to spy on Aiwen and the others, checking their private letters, there is really no bottom line!
They are still somewhat concealed and have not directly checked. I believe it will not be long before they will directly start using magic to intercept owls in the air. Mad-Eye is right in reminding that the Hogwarts postal system is now under the surveillance of the Ministry of Magic. They hope to get news from the Order of the Phoenix from Ivan and Harry.
Don't write letters to members of the Order of the Phoenix, try not to contact them, this is something that must be paid attention to.
But as soon as Ivan returned to the auditorium, he saw a letter in Harry's hand, a letter from Sirius...
Chapter 949 Asterisk Picking
This was the fourth letter they had seen from Sirius since the summer break.
Of the first three letters, one was to Harry asking about his attack by a dementor and giving some advice.
The other one was addressed to Lupine, mainly about Harry's education, asking him to tell Harry something.
The last letter was written to Aiwen. Sirius simply told Aiwen that he was in contact with vampires in Norway, and the security of the owl mail could not be guaranteed, so he did not say too much, but said that after everything stabilized Will keep in touch.
Sure enough, in the letter Harry received, Sirius had only one sentence on it: everything is in order, keep in touch.
If it weren't for the signature "Cold", Sirius' alias when he was lurking in Hogwarts last semester, no one would know what it meant.
"He shouldn't be writing to us, it's too risky," said Hermione, studying the note carefully.
"Don't worry, Hermione, no one can get secret information from this letter!" Harry said hurriedly, "What do you mean by Sirius? How is his business in Norway going?"
"Since you can write to us, it probably goes well!" Aiwen said, according to the previous agreement, this means that he has made progress recently, but Sirius can't write these things on paper and mail them over, what will he do? do it?
Based on Ivan's understanding of him, he would not have written such a letter if he had no other plans for action.
After all, try to keep in touch as little as possible, no news is the best news.
Sirius wouldn't be unaware of this, those vampires...
Several people discussed for a while, until Qiu came over to say hello, she seemed to want to ask about Cedric.
Ever since Harry broke the news of Cedric becoming a vampire a few days ago, it has spread throughout the school.
Until now, this is still the hottest topic, and everyone wants to know more information from Harry.
As Cedric's girlfriend, Qiu's wish seems to be more urgent, and she has other ideas...
"Hello, Ivan; hello, Harry, um..." Qiu said, as if he had finally mustered up his courage.
"Hello," Harry said hastily, looking at Cho in surprise, feeling his face burn with heat.
Qiu is alone, which is really unusual.
You know, she's almost always surrounded by a bunch of chattering girls, and Harry remembers the pain he's had: He's trying to run into her when she's alone, so he can invite her to the Christmas party. prom.
"Hello, Qiu!" Ivan said softly, "How was your summer vacation?"
This was the first time he saw each other after school started. He was so busy these days that even if he came to the auditorium for dinner, he was in a hurry.
"It's fine, I..." She took a deep breath.
"Wow, is that the badge of the Tornado team?" Ron suddenly asked, pointing to the chest of Qiu's robe, where there was a sky blue badge with two bright and striking golden letters T on it, "You should Aren't you supporting them?"
"I do support them," Cho said.
"Have you always supported them, or have you supported them since they started winning the Club Confederations Cup?" Ron asked, in an inexplicable, almost accusatory tone.
"I've supported them since I was six years old." Qiu said coldly, "Okay, goodbye, I'm going to class!"
She walked away, and Hermione looked at Ron unhappily.
"You're so ignorant!" she said with a smack.
"What? I'm just asking if she..."
"Who cares about the Quidditch team she supports, why are you accusing her?"
"Blame? I didn't blame her, I just..."
"Nobody cares if she really supports the Tornados."
"Oh, come on, now you see people wearing those badges, half of them just bought last season."
"What does that matter?"
"That means they're not real fans, they're just following the trend..." Ron said loudly.
"Class is about to start, Snape's Potions class, we better not be late!" Harry said listlessly.
He talked to Ivan and Colin, and walked to the basement on his own, Hermione and Ron hurriedly followed.
Harry suddenly realized that there were two people, Hermione and Ron, by his side. He wondered if he would have the luck in his life to say something to Cho that would leave him ambiguous for two minutes without leaving his country.
The heartache that had disappeared because of Ai Wen's touching actions reappeared...
When Harry came to Snape's basement classroom, his mood, which had improved slightly after receiving a letter from Sirius, turned into a bad mood. Long, pointed black "D".
"This grade I'll give you is what you'll get if you turn in something like that in your owLs," Snape sneered, walking briskly among the class to hand back homework to them , "This should give you a clear idea of what to expect on the exam."
Snape walked to the front of the room and turned to face his classmates.
"The general level of homework this time was abysmal, and if it were an exam, most of you would not pass it. I hope, in the papers on the various types of antidotes, you can put more effort into it, otherwise I You'd have to put those D's in solitary solitary."
His face was full of sneers, and Harry hurriedly stuffed his moonstone paper into his bag.
He felt that it was too embarrassing for him to prefer not to let others know about it. He was probably the only D in the whole class.
Harry made up his mind that this class would never allow Snape to catch him and fail him again.
He read the instructions on the blackboard at least three times before starting to operate. Although the enhancer he prepared was not clear green like Hermione's, it was at least blue, not green like Neville's. Pink.
In a mixture of demonstration and relief, he filled a vial of samples and sent them to Snape's podium when class was over.
While Harry was concentrating on configuring the potion, Ivan, Colin, Ginny, Fred, and George all gathered in the Room of Requirement, where they completed the assembly of the final part of the broomstick Reaching Star.
Ivan waved his wand, and the broomstick trembled slightly, and everything was perfectly combined.
According to their previous design, the main body of the Asterisker is much thicker than the mainstream brooms, but the length has been increased. domineering.
Like Firebolt pieces, every broom twig at the end of the broom has been rigorously screened.
The best materials are used to make the whole body more perfect. In terms of core technology speed, balance, accuracy, sensitivity, etc., Aiwen also abandoned the traditional magic craft and switched to alchemy, which made the broom The magic above has become more powerful, more effective, and more durable.
Chapter 950 Ginny's Performance
The asterisk sign represents the highest technological level of the current flying broom. Although the speed is slightly slower than the Firebolt, it is still comparable to the latest Nimbus series. Its thickness, size, stability and durability are attributed to the slender broom handle of the Firebolt. Unable to give.
The feeling it brings is also different. Aiwen is confident that the Star Reacher can definitely make the rider excited quickly, and every cell in the body is ignited.
It may be too unsuitable for the seeker, but it is the best broom for the batsman and keeper who often bump into each other.
The special invisible seat cushion design and the magic that Ivan put on it can ensure that players can make various difficult postures and still sit firmly on the broom without falling or losing control.
