The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 324 Resentment towards Firebolt
The fireworks in the night sky of Paris are gorgeous, making this ancient city dreamlike.The two-week Christmas holiday is as fleeting as the fireworks. One day after the New Year, Ada packed her handbags and prepared to return to Hogwarts.

When she crossed the English Channel and stood on the land of the British Isles again, Ada didn't feel how far it was from Paris, and she didn't have the true feeling of leaving home.

But when Ida returned to the Scottish Highlands and saw the mountains with similar altitudes, and was hit by the cold and clammy wind on her face, she felt that she had indeed returned to Hogwarts, and it felt right.

The ancient castle that has stood for thousands of years has become lively again, and the students returning to school have brought vitality to Hogwarts again.In a good mood, Ada walked towards the tower of Gryffindor humming an unknown tune, wanting to share her Paris travel notes with her friends.

The portrait at the entrance of the Gryffindor lounge is still Sir Cadogan, and the psychological shadow of the dormitory aunt Fat Lady has not been cured, and she has been refusing to return to work.From Halloween to before the Christmas holiday, the housekeeper Cadogan probably changed a hundred passwords.

In the portrait, Cadogan is resting on the grass, and his dependent pony is grazing beside him.

"Happy New Year, Sir Cadogan." Ida was in a good mood, and greeted Sir Cadogan, "Glory to you in the name of justice!"

Sir Cadogan sprang up from the ground, drew his sword, and said loudly, "The password is wrong! Speak! Why did you succubus break into the castle, and what are your evil eyes watching! Speak!"

"When did you change the password? Why did you change the password during the holidays?" Ada asked patiently.

After the portrait of the Fat Lady was damaged, none of the portraits in the castle were willing to take the dangerous position, because they were afraid that Blake would damage their portraits too.Only Sir Cadogan, unafraid of Black, volunteered to take over the Fat Lady's duties.

Therefore, whether it was for Sir Cadogan's bravery or for allowing the Gryffindor students to return to the common room, Ida respected this Sir who did not have a particularly good reputation.

"You have no right to question Sir Cadogan, you bewildering succubus!" Sir Cadogan continued, dancing the sword in his hand like a windmill, "tell your evil purpose, great Cadogan Sir Root can spare you!"

Ada pursed her lips, suppressed her anger and said, "Here, do you see the prefect badge? I am a Gryffindor prefect. Let me in!"

"I saw it, but so what? The password is wrong, and Dumbledore can't go in. How many prefects are there?" Sir Cadogan's first half of the sentence was normal, and the second half of the sentence burned again, "Come on, Let us fight to the death, brave Sir Cadogan has no fear of goblins!"

Ada suddenly wanted to get out of the wand and tidy up Sir Cadogan's appearance. She finally understood why Blake destroyed the fat lady's portrait in a fit of anger after being rejected by the fat lady.She also wants to do this now, it must be very relieved.

At this time, a Gryffindor student appeared behind Ada, and the footsteps were getting closer.

Hearing someone approaching, Ada felt that she could stop looking for the scissors, but when she turned around and saw that the student was Neville Longbottom, she thought she should continue looking for the scissors.

Just when Ada was about to take out her wand and turn it into a pair of scissors, Neville asked cautiously, "Why don't you go in?"

In Neville Longbottom's heart, there is a fear value ranking list, and Professor Snape and Mrs. Longbottom are at the top of the list.And Ada was lucky to be on the list, even though she never did anything to Neville.

"Neville, the old bastard Cadogan has changed his password again, so I can't enter the lounge." Ada said resignedly, "Let's just wait here until someone comes over, or there are people in the lounge. come out."

Hearing that the password was changed again, Neville stopped picking out his pocket, and asked in a panic, "When was it changed? Why did it change again? I haven't remembered the last one!"

"You forgetful little chubby this morning." Sir Cadogan hesitated, but decided to remind Neville, "Didn't you get the new password right at noon!"

Neville suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to complete the movement that had stopped due to panic.After a while, after Neville fumbled through all his pockets, he finally took out a note.

Ada leaned over to take a look curiously, and the note was densely written with passwords for the lounge. There really are policies and countermeasures.

"Black is a cowardly son of a bitch." Neville spread out the notes and read one of them slowly.

"That's right! Blake is a cowardly son of a bitch, he dare not fight Lord Cadogan to the death!"

Sir Cadogan shouted as he opened the entrance to the drawing room.Neither Ada nor Neville listened to Sir Cadogan's rhetoric. As soon as the hole was exposed, the two of them got in immediately.

The common room was very lively, and Ada told Neville to keep his note so that he would not lose it, and then returned to the group of friends.

The twins and Lee Jordan maintained the same posture, raised their legs, and looked in the direction of the boys' dormitory with a puzzled expression.Angelina and Alia had similar postures, but they didn't cross their legs, and they looked in the direction of the girls' dormitory.

Seeing such a unified appearance of the friends, Ada's good mood that was completely destroyed turned into curiosity.What's wrong with them, is there some great campus couple in Gryffindor?

It's not that Ada's mind is wide open, but the performance of the friends is too weird and too magical.

"Can anyone tell me what happened?"

The little friends turned their heads to look at Ada in unison, which made her startled.Soon, my friends explained the matter clearly. The cause of the matter came from a Christmas gift Harry received.

On Christmas Day, Harry received an expensive Christmas gift, the most expensive and professional flying broomstick on the market, the Firebolt, and such a generous gift was unexpectedly sent anonymously.

Firebolt, the price is negotiable, Ada wanted to buy it during the holidays but failed.Now, Harry is about to ride the Firebolt for the rest of the Quidditch match.Longevity, the rich generation is driving F1 to participate in amateur competitions!Is there still the law of the king, is there still the law!
Although Professor McGonagall gave Harry the Nimbus 2000 as a gift, Ida doesn't think Professor McGonagall will give the Firebolt.The reason is simple, the price of the Firebolt is too expensive, such an expensive gift, such a special treatment, will cause collective dissatisfaction among other students.

The same goes for Dumbledore. He is the headmaster and will cause dissatisfaction among more students.Professor Lupine took good care of Harry, and would personally teach Harry the Patronus Charm this semester, but Professor Lupine's own life was very difficult, and he couldn't afford that much money.

"Now that the Firebolt is in the hands of Professor McGonagall, she wants to check if there is any curse on it. She suspects it was sent by Sirius Black." Fred complained.

George went on to say: "It's all because of Hermione, she told Professor McGonagall about it. I saw a smaller version of you, Prefect Drizzt."

Ada didn't think so, she felt that Hermione's actions were not wrong.There is no big mistake in being careful, and there is no big mistake in being careless. What if there is really a curse on this broomstick, and Harry will fall from a height of dozens of feet?
However, Ada was more concerned about another matter. As the last man of the Black family, the price of the Firebolt should not be a big deal to him.But the question is, Sirius is a fugitive, how did he negotiate the price and order the broomsticks? This is the crux of the problem.

Who helped Sirius Black?
