Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 61: A dueling duel

一 The bones on Harry's arm had grown early the next morning. Mrs. Pomfrey came to check once and found that she was not bad. She told Harry that she could leave.

自然 Harry could not wait any longer.

He put on his clothes as neatly as possible, and hurried to Gryffindor Tower, eager to talk to Ron and Hermione about Colin and Dobby, but they were not there.

Harry went out again, wondering, where can they go? He felt a little wronged, and they didn't even care if his bones had grown.

But when he searched and came to Myrtle's washroom, he found that only Hermione was here to boil the medicine.

"Harry!" She said, "You startled me. Come in-how's your arm?"

"Very good," Harry said, and squeezed into the studio.

He saw a crucible on the toilet, and when Harry heard a crackling sound under the toilet, he knew they had a fire underneath. It's Hermione's trick to create a portable, waterproof fire with magic.

"What about Ron? Isn't he here?" Harry asked curiously.

"Yes," Hermione said, "Well, I mean, I haven't seen him since early in the morning."

They were talking, but they saw Ron pushing the door directly in, and his face was not good-looking.

"What's wrong, Ron? Where have you been?" Harry said in surprise.

Ron was silent for a while, and said, "I'm looking for Maca."

"Go and find Maca?" Hermione stood up suddenly.

"Well, I didn't find it ..."

Ron murmured, and left again, leaving only Harry and Hermione to look at each other.

"Should we go and see what happened?" Harry glanced at Hermione.

"I think it's better not to." Hermione shook her head, not knowing how to answer, but just shied away.

For a moment, Harry fell into doubt, but forgot what he was about to say. But they didn't expect that, at the most unexpected time, Maca suddenly appeared in front of them.

Uh ...

On Monday morning, news that Colin Cleeve was attacked and now lying in the ward like a dead person spread all over the school.

In the twinkling of an eye, rumors flew in the school and everyone was suspicious.

新生 First-year freshmen are now clustered together in groups of three or five, as if they were afraid they would be attacked by acting alone.

Ginny was at the same table with Colin Clive in the Cursed Class, and was very upset at the moment.

In order to please her, Fred and George took turns wearing feathers or scabies, and jumped out from behind the stone statue to tease her. Harry felt that this was obviously a help.

Later, Percy was so incoherent that he told them he would write to their mother, Mrs. Weasley, and tell her that Ginny had nightmares at night, and they stopped pranking.

One day after that, Harry was walking through the hall.

They suddenly saw a small group of people gathered around the notice board, reading a piece of parchment paper that had just been nailed.

Simo Finnegan and Dean Thomas looked very excited and greeted them.

他们 "They are going to start a duel club!" Seamus said. "The first meeting tonight. I have no objection to taking some duel courses, and one day may come in handy ..."

Then, at eight in the evening, the look in Hogwarts Hall changed.

The long dining table disappeared, and a long, gold-plated stage appeared along a wall, illuminated by hundreds of candles floating above it, and the ceiling became dark again like velvet.

几乎 Almost all the students from the school came. Fortunately, the lobby was wide enough, although it still seemed crowded, but at least there was a little room for movement.

Every one of them was holding his own wand, with an excited expression on his face.

It wasn't long before, in everyone's anticipation, Gidro Lockhart made his debut.

穿着 He was wearing a fuchsia robe, his hair combed perfectly, and his good looks, at first glance, it was indeed glorious-as long as he didn't move.

But it is obviously impossible for this professor Bao Xin to keep still.

Lockhart waved everyone to be quiet, then shouted: "Come around, come around! Can everyone see me? Can you hear me ... great!"

"So, Professor Dumbledore allowed me to start this small duel club and fully train everyone in case you need to defend yourself one day and protect yourself in ways that I have used countless times-for more details on this, Look at my work. "

说 He said, another wave, making a "please" gesture.

"Let me introduce my assistant—Professor Snape!" He said toward Snape below the stage. "He said to me that he knew a little about the duel himself, and he agreed generously. , Assist me with a small demonstration before class. "

"I said, I don't want to worry you guys--when I have finished the demonstration with him, I will return your potion teacher to you intact without fear--"

"I said," Snape suddenly interrupted, "I did know a little about the duel, but it's not me who wants to accompany you as a demonstration today."

He took a step to the side, highlighted the people behind him, and sneered.

"……It's him."

所有人 Everyone was taken aback this time, because it wasn't anyone else behind Snape, it was Maca—Maca McLean!

哦 "Oh-haha," Lockhart froze, and then smiled, "I think you must be joking, as a teacher, how can I fight a student duel? How dangerous-"

"No, I think that's right." Snape smiled lightly. "In this way, everyone can see clearly the danger of the curse ..."

He paused for a moment, clearly running the Lockhart sentence: "I think that under the disparity, controlling danger is nothing to your 'duel expert'?"

That was not what happened, and Lockhart immediately jumped into the pit.

哦 "Oh, of course! I think your idea is also good ... yes." Lockhart smiled with a kind and greasy smile. "Come up, Maca."

I want to say that Maca didn't want to be involved in this incident, but I don't know why, Snape threw it to himself. He thought about it and finally agreed.

"Don't worry, child-don't be afraid, you won't be hurt because of this. I'm very experienced as a duel guide." Lockhart maintained a charming smile. "Maybe I can write a book on duel, that's for sure It will be fun. "

也许 "Maybe ..." Maca said as she pulled out her wand.

Off the stage, many students looked at Maca curiously.

Although many people have heard something about the end of last semester, the specific situation has been blurred by Dumbledore. In fact, most students are looking forward to this sudden duel.

At this moment, the eyes of Harry, Ron, and Hermione were all converging on Maca, but their minds were clearly different. The one who has the least psychological burden is probably Harry.

"Come on, Maca!" Harry shouted cheerfully.

The implication of his words is, of course, that he hopes to see that Maca can teach Lockhart a lesson and stop him from being so annoying.

Lockhart and Maca stood opposite each other on the stage and bowed each other.

哈 Lockhart is obviously much more fancy than Maca's unremarkable movement. He turned a lot of tricks with both hands, skillfully made a very gentleman-like look, and took the time to make an elegant gesture towards Macabee.

Then they held their respective wands in front of their chests like arrows.

"As you can see, we held the wand in the usual duel posture. Maca did a good job in this regard, and obviously he had the knowledge to preview the duel," Lockhart told the quiet crowd, "count Three, let ’s do the first magic. Of course, I wo n’t hurt Maca. ”

Suddenly, all the students in the audience focused their attention.

"one two Three!"

Maca raised her hand and shook it gently. The tip of the staff quickly traced the casting trajectory in the shaking, and the speed was surprisingly fast.

"Except your weapon!"

A slender red awn appeared from the front of the wand ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ and went straight to the opposite Lockhart. Although the lightning-fast red light didn't seem to be so dazzling, the solidity of the beam of light made Snape's face flash a strange color.

Luo Huart was too late to react, was hit by the red light, flew back off the stage suddenly, hit the wall severely, then slipped down and curled up on the floor.

"If Snape were to do it, it would be almost like that ..."

Although I don't know why Snape tossed it to him to do it, once Snape proposed, Maca was really difficult to evade.

To put it plainly, Maca's research on potion still needs Snape's help from time to time. Rarely, it is not in the interest of the other party to ask for it. In desperation, Maca can only do so.

Even if he knows it himself, this kind of minimal ridiculous imitation is just deceiving himself.

"Anyway, I need time ... more time," said Maka secretly. "Now, I can't make a reasonable judgment at all, it will be bad."

Let's not mention the expressionless Maca, and Lockhart, who was climbing up embarrassedly. Just watching the students watching around the stage in the hall, almost everyone was surprised and speechless.

After a moment of silence, a boil followed.

Maca looked at the situation in the stands and had already expected this. In any case, this did not meet his immediate needs, even if it was certainly beneficial to his popularity in Hogwarts.

"Professor Lockhart, it's rude." Marka said softly, and jumped off the stage without waiting for Lockhart to say anything.

Off the stage, Snape looked at Lockhart's slightly awkward expression, and his face was full of sneer.
