Chapter 2991 Annie's Blege(1/2)
Chapter 2991 (ˊˋ)Annie’s Broom
During dinner, Harry told Ron what happened in the afternoon, that is, Professor McGonagall made an exception and introduced him to Oliver Wood, the captain of the Gryffindor team, and then told him about his successful passing of the selection.
came out.
Then there was no surprise. Ron, who was stuffing steak and kidney pie into his mouth, was so startled that he stood up with his eyes wide open. Then he hurriedly swallowed it whole, and then he exclaimed in surprise:
"What?"
"Harry!"
"Are you kidding me?"
"Seeker?"
"But didn't the professors say that first-year students are never allowed to participate in the selection for the Quidditch team?"
"Are you really selected?"
"Merlin!"
"I guess you must be the youngest Seeker on the House team in Hogwarts these years!"
While exclaiming, Ron couldn't help but look at Harry with a trace of envy and jealousy.
Yes, that’s jealousy!
Because he didn't understand. Although everyone was in first grade, and he had secretly touched broomsticks more than once at home, why did Professor McGonagall look down on him and instead fell in love with him who grew up in a Muggle family?
Or is it Harry who took flying lessons for the first time and came into contact with a broomstick for the first time?
He couldn't understand this at all.
"No!"
"I'm not the youngest Seeker, Annie is!"
"Moreover, she is also the smallest in the history of Hogwarts, or even the entire wizarding world?"
However, before Ron could continue to be envious and jealous, Harry quickly told another even more shocking truth, which made Ron's eyes widen again.
"Annie?"
"No way?"
"she……"
"But, she is only eight years old..."
As he said that, Ron only felt that his mood became even more sour.
Thinking about it, even if he can't compare to Harry's peers, he can't even compare to a little girl three or four years younger than him. It would be weird if he was in a better mood.
Although, he seems to be inferior to him in many courses, such as Transfiguration, Charms, and the terrible Potions class of 'Dark Wizard' Snape, but for those who are compared on broomsticks,
After what happened, he was still a little unbalanced.
“There’s nothing I can’t do!”
"Anne has indeed joined our Gryffindor team. Professor McGonagall and Principal Dumbledore specially approved it!"
"Of course, Harry too!"
"But Annie is our secret weapon and generally does not require training."
At this time, Ron's two twin brothers, Fred Weasley and George Weasley, came over together, and while confirming Harry's statement, they also spoke secretly and heartily.
He said without saying anything:
"That's right!"
"Secret weapon!"
"Gryffindor's secret weapon!"
"The strongest!"
"We will definitely win the Quidditch Cup this year, I promise you!"
"Nine times out of ten!"
"No, it's a sure thing!"
"That's it!"
After saying that, the two of them looked at each other mysteriously and exchanged glances again, then smiled at each other, sat down at the dining table and started to wolf down their meal. They didn't know why they were so hungry before.
"That……"
Finally, after receiving confirmation from his two brothers, Ron's mind began to come alive, and then he looked at his two twin brothers in a strange way and asked expectantly:
"George!"
"And Fred!"
"If Anne and Harry can do it, can I do it too?"
"No matter what I do, I can't be worse than them, right?"
Yes, at this moment, Ron seemed to have the illusion that 'if others can do it, I can do it too'.
In his opinion, Harry is not much better than him, and some of his homework is even worse than his. As for Anne, forget about it. She often deserts in class, sleeps and contradicts the professor, and her performance is not very good, so he thinks
Can he himself do better than these two people?
"..."
"..."
Hearing this, the two brothers Fred Weasley and George Weasley looked at each other silently.
"Ron..."
"It's good to be ambitious, but..."
"Sometimes, we have to be humble?"
"That's right!"
"Humility makes progress, and you need more progress!"
"We will remind you when the team is selected next year. Then, can you give it a try?"
"But it won't work this year. We don't need the players this year."
"That's it!"
If it were anyone else, there is no doubt that George and Fred would have already started their double taunting mode.
But given that Ron was their biological brother, after much tangle, their words were relatively reserved, and they didn't say anything that would too much damage the other's self-esteem and self-confidence.
"No more collection this year?"
"All right!"
“I’ll try again next year!”
Ron was just talking casually and enjoying the heat for three minutes. Since he heard his two brothers saying that they would not be recruiting people this year, he naturally borrowed a donkey to go downhill and continued to eat his food.
At this moment, several owls flew into the auditorium as usual, and soon, a large package was dropped on the table in front of Ron and Harry.
"This is……"
"Nimbus 2000!"
Seeing the letter on the package and the instructions written by Professor McGonagall not to open it in the auditorium, before Harry could react, Ron next to him gasped again and widened his eyes, and then the two of them ignored it.
After eating, I hurriedly ran out of the classroom with my package.
"Right!"
"What kind of broom would Annie's be?"
At this moment, Ron suddenly remembered that he had joined the Gryffindor team just like Harry, and was described by George and Fred as a 'secret weapon' that made him envious many times.
The sad little girl classmate is here.
"I have no idea……"
Harry shook his head blankly, then quickly added:
"Professor McGonagall originally planned to buy her one. It should also be Nimbus 2000?"
"But Anne refused at the time."
After saying that, Harry checked his package carefully again, focusing entirely on his supposedly amazing new broom.
"reject?"
"That's Nimbus 2000!"
Hearing this, Ron's voice became a little shrill.
You know, that was Nimbus 2000. He had never seen it up close before, let alone touched it. At most, he had only seen the Comet series, and it was still a backward style.
To be continued...
