Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 43 is late

   "Are you early?" Albert looked around the auditorium, but he didn't find the three of George. He put his hand in his pocket, took out his pocket watch and checked the time: 4:10.

   Just right, very punctual.

   "But, yes."

  Albert suddenly thought of something, and he couldn't help but sighed softly. The three of them are only eleven-year-old children, and they don't expect them to have much sense of time.

   What's more, the three of them don't have pocket watches!

   "Hope I don't have to wait too long," he murmured.

   Albert, who had nothing to do, took out his wand, wiped the fingerprints on it with a handkerchief, and recalled the relevant knowledge about summoning in the theory of transformation.

   "The chrysanthemums are in full bloom." He whispered.

   Well, nothing happened.

   Albert immediately checked his skill list, and suddenly found someone sitting next to him.

   Not twins, it should be said. If you talk about the three of them, it won't be so quiet.

  Albert glanced at the skills, but couldn't find the summoning technique. Sure enough, he still had to borrow a fifth grade book to look through it.

   "What's the matter?" Albert asked Shanna.

   "That... can I..." Shanna hesitated a little, and she was interrupted before she could finish speaking.

   "Albert, this way..." The twins were waving at him at the entrance of the auditorium.

   "I have to go." Albert looked at Shanna and asked, "What did you want to say just now?"

   "Nothing." Shanna looked a little disappointed.

"If you want me to teach you Transfiguration, I'm afraid I can't do it now. I have an appointment later." Albert recalled the few problems he encountered in learning magic at the beginning, and comforted him, "Don't be in a hurry, getting started is the last step." Difficult, it took me a long time to learn Transfiguration."

   "Oh, thank you." Shanna thought for a while, "Tonight, can you find time..."

   "If you have time, it's not impossible...then...see you tonight!" Albert walked quickly towards the outside of the auditorium.

   "See you tonight." Shanna looked at Albert's leaving back and whispered softly, "Why is the gap so big?"

   "What were you talking about just now?" Fred asked curiously.

   "Are you talking about where are you going?" Albert said angrily, "The time you agreed with Charlie is coming soon."

   "You know, we don't have a pocket watch." The faces of the three were a little embarrassed, and they knew that they were late just now.

   "I don't blame you, I knew you would be late." Albert looked up at the sky, the weather in the afternoon was still a bit muggy.

   "By the way, your brother will really let us take his broom for a test flight?" Li Qiaodan changed the subject stiffly.

   Speaking of flying on a broom, Li Qiaodan was still a little nervous. After all, he hadn't really tried a broomstick. Although the family bought him a toy broomstick, the toy couldn't fly high or fast, and it couldn't even fly in front of Muggles.

"Yes, if he is a qualified captain, he won't mind spending some time to see if there are any newcomers who can fly well among the freshmen. Even if he can't join the team in the first year, he can wait for the next semester as a reserve player." Albert Casually comforted.

   "Albert is right." George stretched out his hand and patted Lee Jordan on the shoulder and said intimidatingly, "I think the most important thing you need to worry about is not falling off the broom."

   "You fell from the air." Lee Jordan glared at George angrily.

   "Albert, have you played with a broom before?" Fred asked suddenly.

   "I was born in a Muggle family, what do you think?" Albert rolled his eyes at Fred, bent down to pick up a small stone from the ground.

   "What are you doing with that broken stone?" George was a little puzzled.

   "You will know later." Albert threw the small stone in his hand, but did not answer George's question directly

  The four came to the Quidditch field playfully, but Charlie hadn't arrived yet, and the time they agreed on was 4:30 in the afternoon.

   "I guess your brother may not show up until later." Albert came to the entrance of the Quebec Stadium, and the door was locked. However, this couldn't stop them. Albert used the Arahho hole opening spell to easily open the iron door.

  The bottom of the Quidditch field is a soft lawn, and the middle part is sand, which can reduce the damage caused by players falling from it during the game.

There were hundreds of chairs lined up in the surrounding stands, and at each end of the court were three poles, each fifty feet high, with large rings at the top that looked a bit like the little plastic sticks kids use to blow soap bubbles. .

   "Charlie must be late." Fred was a little depressed.

   "What to do now, if I knew it earlier, I would have come later." George also regretted coming early, and they didn't have their own broom, which was undoubtedly a very bad thing.

   "You can practice the spell." Sitting in the shadow of the lawn, Albert reminded the three of them kindly: "Practice the luminous spell, it's idle anyway, find something for yourself."

"Okay, you're right." The three of them were a little depressed, but they had to admit that Albert's words were right, and they had nothing to do anyway, so they might as well find something for themselves, so that time would pass faster .

  Albert also drew out his wand, and began to practice the Disillusionment Charm with the stones he had just picked up.

   "Now, I know why you were able to learn spells so quickly." Lee Jordan stared at his flickering wand, a little depressed.

   No matter who practices so hard, unless he is really stupid, there is no reason why he cannot learn!

  Of course, if they knew that Albert had cheated on him, they might not think so.

  It was almost five o'clock when Charlie Weasley came in a hurry, and brought his broom along the way...a five-star sweep.

  Of course, the twins specially introduced it to Albert, and he only knew the name of this broom. He heard that it was an older broom.

   "How did you get in, I remember there should be a lock here." Charlie looked suspiciously at the four people walking towards him.

   "Using the Unlocking Charm, of course." The twins said naturally.

   "Ahem, don't use that tone, you seem to be able to use the unlocking spell." Lee Jordan couldn't help complaining.

   "You didn't drive it anyway." George gave Lee Jordan a blank look and said angrily.

   "Okay, the test later is very simple, you just need to ride my broom around the Quidditch field!" Charlie looked at Albert and Lee Jordan and asked, "Have you ever ridden a broomstick?"

   "No." Albert answered very simply.

   "I've only ever ridden a toy broomstick," Lee Jordan muttered under his breath.

"After the two of them have finished flying, you should try it too!" Charlie would not reject the friends brought by the twins, and turned his head to look at the twin brothers who were fighting for the broom, warning: "You two, just go around Fly around the Quidditch field, if I find out what kind of tricks you guys are up to... huh!"
