The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 161 Rumors Stop at the Wise

Now that he knew how to deal with the three-headed dog, and confirmed that the items hidden in the corridor on the right of the fourth floor were brought back to school by Hagrid, the trip to the cabin was not in vain.

After a period of time, Hagrid's guard against the three of them was removed, and they could use Hagrid's trick again to ask the value of this item, so that things would be basically clear.

Of course, there is another way, that is, three people go to the corridor on the right of the fourth floor to find out what is hidden directly.It's just that if you do this, it will definitely attract Dumbledore's attention. The three of them are just curious, and they don't intend to take the items for themselves. There is no need to do so.

The school was quiet for the next few days, nothing special happened except that Professor Flitwick was hopping on the table again.

Hermione Granger showed the ability to be a top student, which made Professor Flitwick think of Ida two years ago, who was also so smart, but was also assigned to Gryffindor. Professor Flitwick began to doubt The Sorting Hat is messed up.

Missing Ada and Hermione, it's no wonder that Professor Flitwick slapped the table, which dean would feel uncomfortable if this happened to him.

Except for Snape, Ada and Hermione were both Muggle-born, and Slytherin has almost no students of such blood, let alone two in three years.

The trio of Ada who had nothing to do turned their attention to the Marauder's Map, and they tried to monitor Quirrell through the Marauder's Map and grasp his every move.

It's just that Quirrell's actions don't have any noteworthy places. In classrooms, offices, and auditoriums crowded with a bunch of names, you can always find Quirrell in these three locations.

Quirrell's normal behavior seemed to refute Ada's suspicion of him, but it was because he was so normal that he seemed very deliberate, making those who cared about him feel that he was hiding something.

Ada doesn't know how the aloof Dumbledore observes Quirrell, but Ada believes that all actions of Quirrell can't escape Dumbledore's eyes, and Dumbledore is waiting for the moment when Quirrell reveals his feet.

Regardless of whether there are any changes in Quirrell, life still has to be normal, but Ada's life is a bit bitter.

More and more people know that Ada is the "starting seeker". This also means that Wood's tactics of fishing in troubled waters have succeeded. He has successfully diverted the attention of other teams to Ada, and no one will pay attention to the real player. Seeker Harry.

This is a good thing for Gryffindor, but it is not a good thing for Ada, because there are also many people who want to see her jokes.Everyone is jealous. Ada is the first in the grade. She is extremely talented and beautiful. Naturally, she will suffer more jealousy.

Now it is rumored that Ada is going to play Quidditch, which has raised the jealousy of many people to a new level. These people are waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

Of course, these words of jealousy were said behind Ada's back. If it was in front of Ada, she would probably reply: Are you envious?I have no parents since I was a child, and I lived in an orphanage for 12 years in exchange for it!

It is said that human words are scary, but as long as you don't take these "human words" to heart, then it is not so scary.These gossips naturally reached Ada's ears, but she didn't care about the opinions of these people, and these gossips were not painful to her.

That morning, Ada sat in the auditorium to eat as usual, and the owl army invaded the auditorium on time. A gray owl accurately dropped a copy of "The Quibbler" to Ada. This magazine Ada used as a joke book See, the absurd, weird articles above are fun to read.

It was an ordinary morning, but six long-eared owls carried a slender package that made it extraordinary.The elongated shape looked a lot like a broomstick, and the package belonged to Harry, apparently the broomstick he had ordered had arrived today.

The twins went to watch the fun at Harry's, but Ida didn't. She sipped her porridge and flipped through the new Quibbler.Ada didn't think it was very interesting. She definitely couldn't afford the broomstick Harry bought. It was so greedy, she might as well not look at it.

Harry didn't open the package, but ran away with the package in his hand. Ron followed behind him, his eyes were full of the package in Harry's hand, and his eyes almost grew to the top.

"Harry has a broomstick." After watching the excitement, Fred came back and shared with Ida.

"The latest Nimbus 2000." George added an explanation to the broomstick.

Ada folded the "Quieter" in her hands, and said, "Isn't this what Oliver recommended to him? Harry is not short of money. A Nimbus 2000 is not a trivial matter. You should have thought of it long ago."

"We think it's better for you to know about one thing..." George hesitated, and didn't think about how to tell Ada.

"What's the matter? Speak straight, coyly like a big girl." Ada smiled and looked at the twins, "Are you afraid that I will be jealous of Harry? When have you ever seen me jealous of others? I have always been jealous." Others are jealous of me."

While talking, Ada also scanned the auditorium. In this auditorium, there are not a few people waiting to see her embarrassing.

Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain, Fred said directly: "Harry didn't buy his broomstick himself, but someone else gave it to him..."

"It can't be from Dumbledore or Professor McGonagall, right?" Ada still didn't pay attention, and was still telling what she thought was a joke.

"Professor McGonagall gave it." George said, "Ada, maybe this broom was originally for you..."

"Very good. Professor McGonagall really hopes that the team will win the championship. You two must work hard this year." Ada said absent-mindedly, "I'm full, so I'm going to the classroom first."

The twins and Ida are so familiar, her small expression can deceive others, but it is difficult to hide it from Fred and George. The way Ada walked out of the auditorium looked a little embarrassed in the eyes of the twins.

The newly bought "The Quibbler" fell on the long table, and Ada left the auditorium without taking it. She is not in the mood to read a joke book now.

Harry Potter did not open the package, but followed Professor Mai's instructions and left the auditorium directly, but the news that he had the broomstick spread like wildfire, because they met Malfoy at the door.

First-year students were not allowed to have their own broomsticks, and there was apparently a special reason why Harry Potter had one and was not punished.The special reason is that Harry Potter became a member of Gryffindor. Only in this way can he reasonably own his own broomstick, and only in this way can he convince the first-year students.

Now that Harry Potter has joined the Quidditch team, it's obvious who he's replacing. That guy didn't even have a broomstick in the third grade. It's easy to tell who's up and who's down in this way. .

Those who waited to see Ada's embarrassment did not expect that the joke would come so quickly, only a week had passed.I thought I had to wait until the game started, but it was too fast, so fast it was unbelievable.

Ada is probably the player with the shortest time in the starting position. He has never played, and it cannot be shorter.

Not long after school started, everyone was busy, so the dispute about the position of Ida and Harry Potter spread quickly, faster than Nimbus 2000, and everyone knew about it in the afternoon up.

And Ada's behavior is also being watched by caring people. All of Ada's current behaviors are being over-interpreted by those people, and she has also received benefits and equal treatment from Quirrell.

Everything she has said and done can be used as evidence that Ada has lost her starting position.

Ada didn't eat much in the morning, and she was said to be selling miserably, pretending to be pitiful to fight for sympathy; she borrowed a quill in class, and was said to be crying poor, saying that she thought the reason she lost to Harry was that the broomstick was not good; Without answering the question, it was said that Ada thought that Professor McGonagall was biased, and the reason why he lost was because the professor favored Harry Potter.

In a word, Ada broke the defense, and Harry did such a happy thing as soon as he entered school, which is really great.Let Ada usually look down on people and ignore everyone, this time she really deserves it!
