Chapter 53: Chapter 53: making trouble
When Lynn sat down in the seat Malfoy had reserved for him, the Quidditch match had already begun.
The players of the Gryffindor and Slytherin Quidditch teams gathered around Madam Hooch, the referee. After hearing Madam Hooch's reminder, they all mounted their broomsticks.
Harry got on his Nimbus 2000. Among all the broomsticks in the stadium, his Nimbus 2000 was the best one.
Fifteen broomsticks took off into the air and were distributed in various locations on the Quidditch pitch.
"The Quaffle was immediately grabbed by Angelina Johnson of Gryffindor. What an excellent Chaser that girl is, and she is also very charming..."
The little wizard Lee Jordan of Gryffindor, who was the commentator of the match, stood in the commentary booth and shouted loudly.
"Jordan!"
Professor McGonagall, who was standing next to Lee Jordan, shouted immediately.
"I'm sorry, Professor." Lee Jordan shrank his neck and explained normally, "She really was running all the way up there, and she made a beautiful pass to Alicia Spinnet!"
"She was a talent discovered by Oliver Wood, and she was just a reserve player last year... The Quaffle was passed to Johnson again, and then... Oops, the Slytherin team snatched the Quaffle, and the captain of the Slytherin team, Marcus Flint, got the Quaffle and ran away! Flint was flying like an eagle up there... He was going to score... No, Gryffindor's Keeper Wood made a beautiful save and broke the play!"
Lee Jordan explained hard, and the atmosphere on the scene became more and more excited under this passionate commentary.
At this time, holding the Quaffle on the pitch was Katie Bell, a Chaser of the Gryffindor Quidditch team. She flew around Flint swiftly, trying to find a chance to shoot.
But at this moment, a Bludger hit Katie Bell's head, causing the Quaffle in her hand to be stolen by Adrian Pucey of the Slytherin Quidditch team. Adrian Pucey rushed towards the goal posts quickly, but was knocked down by another Bludger.
At this time, the Bludger was batted aside by Fred Weasley, and Angelina Johnson of the Gryffindor Quidditch team took the Quaffle back.
There was no resistance in front of her at this time. She rushed towards the Slytherin goal posts at a high speed, dodged a Bludger that was shot at her, and bypassed the Slytherin Quidditch team's Keeper Bletchley, and threw the Quaffle into the goal hoop with a shot.
Madam Hooch immediately blew the whistle and announced that Gryffindor scored.
This made the little lions in the Gryffindor camp cheer.
The cheers of the little lions echoed in the cold air, mixed with the roars and groans of the little snakes.
After Angelina Johnson scored for Gryffindor, Harry, who was far in the sky, happily controlled the Nimbus 2000 to do a somersault to express his joy.
As the Seeker of the Gryffindor Quidditch team, Harry could fly in the air unscrupulously. After all, before the trace of the Golden Snitch appeared, he was in a state of having nothing to do.
On the commentary stand, Lee Jordan did not stop commenting because of a goal. His emotions seemed to be more excited: "Slytherin got the Quaffle! Chaser Pucey ducked his head to avoid two Bludgers, and then avoided the Weasley twins and the pursuer Bell, and ran towards... Wait a minute, what is that?! Is that the Golden Snitch?!"
Lee Jordan's words paused for a moment, and then burst into more intense emotions.
A golden light flew past the left ear of Adrian Pucey, a Chaser of the Slytherin Quidditch team, and flew around in the Quidditch match.
The appearance of the Golden Snitch immediately ignited the atmosphere of the entire stadium. No matter which House students were, they were cheering for their own or the team they supported.
As a Seeker, Harry naturally saw the Golden Snitch first. He controlled the Nimbus 2000 to dive and chased after the golden light.
Not far away, Terence Higgs, the Seeker of the Slytherin Quidditch team, also saw the Golden Snitch. He and Harry flew almost side by side in the direction of the Golden Snitch;
At this tense moment, the other players of the two Quidditch teams seemed to have forgotten what they should do, hovering in the air, watching the fight between Harry and Higgs.
Even though Higgs was more experienced, Harry's broom was a Nimbus 2000, which had already opened up a large gap in hardware.
At this time, Harry could already see the small fluttering ball of the Golden Snitch, and he accelerated again.
But at this moment, the Slytherin Quidditch team showed their tradition of not being sportsmanlike. Their captain, Marcus Flint, deliberately controlled the broom to hit Harry, knocking Harry off course.
This extremely illegal behavior caused Flint to be reprimanded by Madam Hooch, and the little lions of Gryffindor below also surrounded Flint's mother and gave her a 360-degree greeting without blind spots.
Madam Hooch, the referee, ordered the Gryffindor team to take a penalty shot in front of the goal posts, but even so, the Golden Snitch had already lost its trace again in the chaos.
On the top stand of the Gryffindor camp, Dean Thomas, who was Muggle-born, shouted loudly: "Send him off! Referee! Red card!"
Ron on the side reminded: "This is not football, Dean, in Quidditch, you can't send people off... By the way, what is a red card?"
When Dean explained to Ron what a red card was, Lee Jordan, a Gryffindor, was also furious.
"So... after that obvious and despicable cheating just now..."
Lee Jordan said angrily.
"Jordan!" But Professor McGonagall, who was always fair, warned him.
Lee Jordan changed his words: "I mean, after that public and offensive foul just now..."
Professor McGonagall roared in a low voice: "Jordan, I remind you..."
Lee Jordan had no choice but to pause helplessly, and after organizing his words, he spoke again: "Okay, okay. Flint almost killed the Gryffindor team's Seeker. I believe that everyone will encounter such a thing, so the Gryffindor team will take a penalty shot..."
Although he changed his words twice in a row, Lee Jordan's sarcastic words still made Irina in the stands give a thumbs up.
Just as the match continued, Harry suddenly changed. After Harry controlled the Nimbus 2000 to avoid a Bludger, his broom suddenly went haywire. The broom shook rapidly, as if trying to throw Harry off.
Harry held the broom handle tightly with both hands and clamped the flying broom tightly with his knees. He had never been so scared before.
At the same time, two figures suddenly stood up in the Gryffindor camp and the Slytherin camp, and their eyes were looking towards the direction of the teacher's seats.
Quirrell started to act up!
Such thoughts appeared in the minds of Lynn and Irina at the same time.
