Luna glanced at Hermione who was holding Elena down, raised her eyebrows and said softly.
Noticing that the light wall next to her was cracked, Hermione's original courage quickly receded like a tide. The girl released her hands that were holding Elena down, sat up from the white-haired dumpling in a panic, and began to fumble around the bed.
Books that have been read.
However, before Hermione could pick up the "Book of Potions" again, Elena's voice suddenly sounded behind her.
"No, you ended at the right time -"
Elena shook her head, frowned at them, and her tone fell slightly.
"Perhaps, we need to have a good talk, eh? Why is this happening? I mean, using duality rewind to transform the structure magic to create an independent space in the room... three areas in one room, is this necessary?
,Hannah?”
She looked past Luna Lovegood and towards the iron fool who was clearing the chessboard.
Compared with the other three little witches who may lie, Hannah Abbott is obviously more suitable as a breakthrough.
"I - um - well, okay, I don't think this is right, but..."
Hannah said in a panic, glancing at Hermione who was sitting next to Elena, "Well - Granger said, since we don't want to listen to her suggestions and make noises from time to time, why don't we all be quiet?
method. In short, that’s it.”
"Well, that's exactly what I said, because you guys are totally fooling around -"
Hermione said calmly, and before Elena turned around, she continued what Hannah said.
"Obviously, wizard chess is actually chess that can move. If you read a few related chess books, you will understand that your own playing methods are not even considered as a beginner - wu wu - it hurts -
"
"Okay, I understand, just stop saying a few words!"
Elena expressionlessly withdrew the death knife that struck Hermione on the head, and glanced at Luna who was silent.
"So... Luna, just follow the wishes of these two idiots, use illusion magic, and create a small, quiet space around the three of you to play chess, so that Hermione can be alone in bed without being seen or distracted.
Reading a book?"
"That's about it," Luna said. Seeing Elena's gloomy face, she curled her lips, "At least this way, everyone won't quarrel. Besides, Elena, aren't you like this sometimes? For example, just now
When doing homework——"
"So, you have reached a consensus? Hmm, you guys -"
Elena's gaze slowly swept across the room, she narrowed her eyes, sneered and hummed.
If you think about it carefully, except for Hannah Abbott, Hermione Granger and Luna Lovegood already have the characteristics of autistic children. If it weren't for Danilova who "sympathizes with the same disease", maybe the little one just now would
There will be more compartments.
As for Little Key, who comes from a scientific family, it is impossible to expect her to have an outgoing and lively personality.
Elena resisted the urge to suppress it directly, folded her arms, and said softly.
"This logic is great! Of course, one person will not quarrel! It's wonderful!"
"Actually, I also know that what Hermione said makes sense. After all, she always wins... But we just want to have fun casually. We only need to know a little about the rules and two or three steps to start. If there are too many things to memorize, it will feel like we are in class.
Already."
Hannah looked very nervous and anxious. She knew very well that a certain volcano seemed to be about to erupt.
"And besides playing chess, we also talked about other things, such as Quidditch - you know, tomorrow will be a Quidditch assessment. Whether it's Danilova, Luna's freshman team, or
It’s our Hufflepuff house team. But she’s not interested in these topics, and she’s not good at flying...well...that’s why I thought it would be better to just..."
Hannah Tiehanhan Aibo looked at Hermione apologetically, and explained in a panic.
"Who said you can't participate in Quidditch if you can't fly well? On the contrary, I think Hermione is quite talented——"
Elena raised her eyebrows, stood up, walked to the suitcase and flipped through it.
"Hey, what nonsense are you talking about, I don't-Elena, what is this?"
Hermione looked at the pile of magazines that Elena handed to her with some confusion. There were both moving and non-moving magazines. Judging from the titles and covers, it was obvious that they were not just magazines from the wizarding world, but also mixed with other magazines.
Many non-magical magazines.
"If you think chess is not challenging for the time being, why not consider Quidditch——"
Elena pointed seriously at the pile of magical and non-magical sports magazines and smiled slightly.
"As a mature sport, haven't you noticed that there is something missing from the various college teams at Hogwarts? In any team competition, in addition to the hard work of the players on the field, the head coach and tactical coach are quite important.
Important piece of the puzzle.”
"But I don't understand, and no matter what I think, Wood won't listen to me, right?"
Hermione hesitated, she understood what Elena meant almost immediately.
But she didn't have much confidence in the feasibility or actual results of this matter. Quidditch was different from any non-magical sports. In the books she had read, there were almost no descriptions of tactical coaches.
.
"No, of course not the Gryffindor house team!"
Elena said without thinking, pouting at Luna and Danilova.
"Since I agreed to Professor McGonagall to join the Gryffindor House team, during the new assessment and recruitment of the Hogwarts freshman team tomorrow, I hope Hermione that you can replace me as the team coach and formulate relevant arrangements.
Tactics and training plans.”
"Wait, Lu - I mean, Hermione is going to be the head coach of the new students?!"
Hannah opened her eyes wide in surprise and looked at the white-haired dumpling sitting on the bed, her eyes full of confusion.
Except for Danilova, who didn't know much about Quidditch because she had just taken a flying lesson, Luna Lovegood, who was standing next to Hannah, and even Hermione Granger's face,
At this time, they all had similar expressions of surprise.
"That's right." Elena said calmly.
"why me?"
Hermione Granger frowned, looked at the pile of magazines and books in her hand, and did not refuse immediately.
Obviously, judging from these carefully collected information, Elena's suggestion just now was by no means a temporary idea, and naturally it would not be a response to tonight's situation... At least, this would not be the entire reason.
"You can only see the overall situation of the game clearly from the stands on the ground. It's like playing chess - no one is more suitable than you."
Elena explained seriously that in fact this was not the real reason.
She didn't want there to be a rift in the relationship between Hermione and the other girls. Those materials were originally prepared by Elena for her subsequent teaching, but she found that compared to helping Gryffindor win, there were also
Something more meaningful.
"Then, I think you should at least [81中文网www.x81zw.info] -"
Before Hannah could finish her words, she was interrupted by Luna. She had been looking at them thoughtfully just now. At this time, as if she had recovered from sleepwalking, she suddenly spoke softly.
"If the coach is Hermione, I don't think there is too much doubt. She must want to win more than any of us. Although I don't know how much role the coach plays in other teams, in a team composed of freshmen, she must
Very important."
There is nothing wrong with those information and those statements...it sounds like the kind of comprehensive plan Elena would make.
The only problem is...
Miss Lovegood's silver-grey eyes swept across Elena's face. Although there was no evidence, she knew in her heart that a certain elf queen had lied in a small place - that information was not prepared for Hermione at all.
"Friend..." Luna's eyes flickered and she whispered in her heart.
"Okay, that's it, it's settled!"
Elena clapped her hands happily and stood up from the bed.
"Tomorrow I will also go to the Quidditch pitch to watch. In addition to the assessment of the Gryffindor team, as the sponsor and founder of the freshman team, I also retain the right to veto the selection of personnel. Tonight we
Let’s rehearse first, and then——”
"Hey, Bai Mao Danzi!"
At this moment, Hannah suddenly frowned and looked at her roommate standing on the bed.
"You put on your dirty socks and stepped on the bed again, and you were actually standing over where I was sleeping! I won't let you get away with it this time, you sloppy guy, get off here quickly!"
"Uh... I, this is not a special situation, and it doesn't stink."
Elena blinked, then quickly jumped out of bed, took off her socks and threw them aside.
"How about we take a shower first? Talk while washing, and then go to bed early today to prepare for tomorrow..."
She rubbed her hands enthusiastically and looked at the little witches in the room.
"Granger, come here, help me pick up these little girls that I didn't take you to play with before—"
"Elena, don't mess around, ah..."
"Hermione, come here and help, this white-haired dumpling is too strong -"
After Hermione stood aside for a few seconds, she pursed her lips and quickly stepped forward to join the battle.
"Hey, hey, Hermione, you actually made a sneak attack, how could you do this!"
"Who makes you always like to make your own decisions? Humph——"
Along with the sounds of the girls playing, the disharmonious atmosphere that had been lingering in the bedroom quickly dissipated.
…
The next morning, Hermione was the first to wake up in the dormitory.
She lay on the bed for a while, watching the magic fireflies on the ceiling dancing in the sunlight that filtered through the gaps in the curtains of the four-poster bed, and then she remembered that today was Sunday, the assessment day for each Quidditch team.
The first week of the new semester is so long, it seems like it will never end.
There was a deep sleeping silence all around, and that ray of sunshine seemed to have just been created, and it seemed that the genius had just begun to shine.
Elena hugged Hannah like a koala, and the girl's long silver hair was buried in Tiehanhan's chest. She was sleeping soundly - since they came out of the bathroom last night, these two witches with strange powers have been
After competing hard, he was obviously very tired.
On the other side, Luna and Danilova were sleeping on the edge of the bed leaning on each other, almost falling.
Hermione opened the curtains around the bed and began to get up and get dressed.
Everyone in the bedroom seemed to be sleeping deeply. Except for a few incomprehensible murmurs from Hannah, the only sound was the slow, even breathing of the four sleeping little witches. If nothing else, they should be fine.
It took a while to wake up.
She carefully opened her schoolbag and took out the pile of magazines that Elena had given her.
On the other side of the room, there are several soft armchairs beside the long-extinguished fire, and next to them are two standing desks. There is a soft magic lamp next to the desk, which is just enough to see clearly.
Things won't be too bright.
It’s such an enviable room. I wonder if professors’ bedrooms are so comfortable. It seems that they have never been mentioned in books.
While Hermione was thinking this, she opened the "World Football - Bi-annual" on the top, read it carefully under the soft light, and then her eyes stopped on the messy notes and annotations in the margin of the title page.
"English Premier League, Lancaster Gate, profit, sport..."
She was all too familiar with the small handwriting that looked like animal paws. It was one of Elena's trademarks.
Judging from the curled footers at the edge of the magazine, this book has obviously been turned over several times before. If you turn back a few pages, you can see similar comments, some of which are strange words that you can’t understand, and some of which are strange words that you can’t understand.
It is a sentence that comments on certain tactics.
The most important thing is that there are also Quidditch terms like seeker and chaser.
Even if Hermione didn't know much about Quidditch or British football, she could still see the relevance of those comments.
Only now did Hermione understand what Elena said before going to bed last night. As long as she studied this pile of information carefully, she would be able to easily become the head coach of the freshman team - that white-haired dumpling directly copied the written information.
The "homework" was copied to her! If she guessed correctly, these should have been Elena's own tactical notes, right?
She sat motionless for a while, staring at the notes on the edge of the book.
In the blank spaces at the end of this book, there are detailed analysis reports on the Quidditch teams of the four houses of Hogwarts, including even the best performances of the members of last year's freshman team.
Location speculation.
"...Harry will most likely be the seeker, and Ron will be the goalkeeper substitute and chaser. If we play against the Gryffindor team in the new season, double-marking Harry can make the system of Gryffindor House better."
Lost most of its combat effectiveness."
"...Goyle and Crabbe have not yet entered the period of rapid development. Endurance and physical strength will be the breakthrough point, but be careful about Draco as Slytherin's Seeker. He is very suitable for looking for opportunities..."
"...Hannah is not stable in holding the ball and is easily disturbed during the charging stage..."
"...The overall mentality of Ravenclaw College is fragile, and pressure from the outside can directly defeat it..."
Except for Luna Lovegood, who has never played, Elena almost predicted in advance in this booklet the possible lineups of each academy this year, as well as their respective tactical flaws and possible winning tactical core.
Although she had no talent in flying, Hermione had read many books about Quidditch before.
After briefly glancing at the tactics, she quickly combined in her mind the appearance of the Hogwarts Quidditch field, as well as the little men on broomsticks who looked like chess pieces - if we say, targeted response
, even the freshman varsity team does not seem to have no chance of winning against various colleges.
"Using the sky as a chessboard and each player as a chess piece... It seems very interesting..."
Hermione nodded thoughtfully and gently closed the "World Football - Semi-Annual" that she had quickly browsed in her hand. There was a faint movement of turning over on the bed behind her. If nothing unexpected, those who had read last night
The girls are about to wake up after playing crazy.
Just now, she suddenly figured out another thing.
The words "investment", "alliance" and "sponsorship" written at the front and in some blank spaces may represent another ongoing chess game, a huge plan personally carried out by the Goblin Queen of Gringotts
.
Perhaps, after she completes the chess game in school, she will be qualified to stand next to Elena and see the bigger world?
