Days passed one by one, and today, in the early morning, the restaurant was suddenly filled with the sound of hundreds of wings flapping violently.

In the sky, hundreds of owls flew swiftly from outside the restaurant into the restaurant, each clutching a package tightly in its beak or on its feet.

"My God, this is a disaster!"

As we all know, owls are feathered animals, and all feathered animals have one thing in common: they shed.

Countless owl feathers fell from the sky and landed in the little wizards' bowls, making the hungry wizards lose their appetite.

"I told you not to try to have breakfast at the restaurant on Mondays, because those damn owls will definitely ruin it."

Many young wizards began to complain, but the owls ignored them, delivering the packages and leaving without looking back, leaving the restaurant in a mess.

Amidst the mournful atmosphere, a startled cry rang out:

"My God, Harry, a brand new Nimbus 2000! This is a brand new product that the Nimbus Company just produced today! Who could possibly give you such an expensive gift?"

Looking in the direction of the sound, one could see that Harry was holding a brand new broom. Judging from its model, it was the latest Nimbus 2000 Flying Broom.

Countless young wizards cast curious and envious glances at it; a brand-new Nimbus 2000 would cost a full 100 Galleon on the market.

Having a Nimbus broom is as appealing as owning a supercar in the Muggle World.

"Oh my god, he's so beautiful, I want to hold him and sleep!" Ron Weasley took the broom from Harry's hand and gently stroked every inch of it, his eyes filled with rapture and satisfaction.

"Harry, quickly check who gave this to you. Is it one of your rich relatives? How could they be so generous as to give you this high-end broom?"

When Wood, captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch Team, heard that Harry had a new broom, he immediately came over.

As Quidditch enthusiast, Wood also longed to own his own Nimbus 2000, but unfortunately, his family simply wouldn't allow him to spend that much.

"Don't be ridiculous, Wood. You know I live with my aunt and uncle, and they're both genuine Muggle."

Harry shook his head. The Dursley family all Muggle, and he was certain that even if they had access to the Wizarding World, they wouldn't be so kind as to send him such an expensive broom.

At that moment, Ron Weasley spotted the sender of the package and shouted, "McGonagall. Minerva! Good heavens, isn't that Professor McGonagall?!"

"Harry, you're amazing! Professor McGonagall went out of her way to buy you a brand new Nimbus 2000 flying broomstick. That's so cool!"

"Professor McGonagall?!" Harry looked up quickly and, sure enough, saw Professor McGonagall smiling at him and nodding.

"It really is Professor McGonagall!" Harry exclaimed, his heart filled with emotion as he looked at the brand-new flying broom.

Since he entered Hogwarts, he could clearly feel the friendliness of the people around him.

Hagrid, Ron Weasley, Flitwick, and even Lester at the beginning—it's all so different from his experiences in the Muggle World!

However, while Harry was moved, Wood next to him was extremely embarrassed, and his expression was somewhat unnatural.

Despite playing Quidditch at Hogwarts for so many years, Professor McGonagall never mentioned buying her a flying broom.

He only offered verbal encouragement to the other team members, without providing any material support.

Even now, the twin brothers, who are struggling financially, still ride their old-fashioned Cleansweep Seven motorcycle, and Professor McGonagall has never said a word about it.

As a result, Harry Potter, a newcomer who has yet to achieve anything, has not only been exceptionally admitted to the Quidditch team in his first year, but has also received a new broom.

"Why think so much? Professor McGonagall just wants us to win the game more easily."

Wood forced himself to push the bitterness out of his mind and muttered to himself, "Harry is our teammate, I should be happy that he got a new broom."

"Professor McGonagall is our dean, but flying brooms aren't cheap, and he can't possibly provide them for everyone."

On the professor's chair, Professor McGonagall noticed Wood's unnatural expression and gave a wry smile.

He had no choice; he didn't want to apply double standards, nor did he want to interfere in the students' affairs. However, it was Dumbledore's order, and he had to carry it out.

In the distance, at the Slytherin dining table, Malfoy, seeing Harry with his new broom, anxiously said to Lester:

"Lester, what should I do? Professor McGonagall gave Harry a brand new Nimbus 2000. I'm going to write to my father right now and ask him to get me one too!"

As Lester unpacked the package, he said casually, "Don't panic, Malfoy. Just sit back and wait for the game to start so you can win without lifting a finger!"

Waiting to win without lifting a finger? Although Lester is strong in combat and has good flying skills, Quidditch is a team game after all.

Ignoring Malfoy's disbelief, Lester opened the package and took out the spellbook inside.

Turning to the first page, the magic I wanted was right there in front of me.

Eagle Eye Spell grants the user the vision of an eagle for a short period, and makes the tracks of all creatures within a 500-meter radius visible.

Below the spellbook was an envelope, and the sender was none other than Brian, the professor of the Thievery in Azkaban.

"Lord Lai, this is a magical spell I discovered in ancient ruins. I used this spell to become a legendary Chaser, highly sought after throughout the entire Wizarding World."

"Hearing that you need magic to help you find the Golden Snitch, I feel that Eagle Eye Spell is the perfect solution!"

With a quick glance and the system's help, Lester quickly learned the Eagle Eye Spell.

[Eagle Eye Spell: Significantly enhances the caster's vision for a short period of time, and grants the ability to slow down visual motion.]

"Perfect!" Lester was overjoyed. This was the magic he had been looking for—a magic that could help him quickly find the Golden Snitch.

"Brian did a great job; it seems necessary to give him a chance to get back into the game!"

Lester pondered silently, already deciding on the reward for Brian offering the spell.

Once Quidditch star sought after throughout the Wizarding World, he is now a lowly prisoner of Azkaban.

Brian is certainly not content with the status quo; he probably thinks about taking back what he has lost day and night.

Lester, being a man of principle, always followed the rules. Since Brian was willing to give him this precious spell, he couldn't be stingy.

So Lester immediately took out his quill and wrote a letter to Hafiz.

"Hafiz, go to Bano in the Sports and Athletics Division at the Ministry of Magic and apply to establish a new Quidditch team."

"The team captain is Brian; his teammates told him to choose from among the Muggle-born wizard."

"Azkaban provided him with all the resources he needed for training, preparing him to lead the England team in the Quidditch World Cup three years later!"
