Quidditch Match

Harry was a bit of a headache. He had thought that he would finally not have to face Malfoy and his friends in this year's Quidditch Match. He had even made bold statements about leading Gryffindor to victory, but reality had given him a slap in the face.

Malfoy and his friends had nothing to do in the Miao Village Tenten, so they decided to go back to participate in the Quidditch Match! What's the difference where they were? Besides, they could bully Harry the Chosen One when they got back, which would surely cheer Malfoy up, wouldn't it?

"He deserves to die, doesn't he!"

Harry was so angry when he learned that Alicia Spinnet had been given a Hair-Growing Spell by Malfoy and his gang for fighting over Quidditch practice area. Her eyebrows grew so long they covered her eyes and mouth, forcing her to be sent to the Hospital Wing. He almost cursed at them.

The key point is Professor Snape. There were 14 eyewitnesses at the scene, all of whom insisted that Malfoy did it, but Professor Snape still lied through his teeth, claiming that Alicia Spinnet cast a Hair-Growing Spell on herself.

Harry was initially quite optimistic about this year's Quidditch Match. After all, Slytherin no longer had those formidable opponents, and even though Ron's skill level was nowhere near Wood's, Harry didn't consider these weaklings a threat.

But now things are different. Ron's biggest problem is that he easily loses confidence, then makes mistakes, gets upset after making mistakes, and then makes more mistakes—it's a chain reaction. But now, Ron has lost all his confidence.

Fred and George were so angry that they decided to sever all ties with Ron and no longer acknowledge him as their brother.

"We have given it serious consideration."

"We don't have this younger brother. Oh, who are you?"

"How dare they impersonate our cute and brave little brother!"

The entire Gryffindor Quidditch team was in complete chaos.

Of course, our young Malfoy would never miss such a joyful moment of revenge.

"Hey Weasley, have you booked a bed in the Hospital Wing yet?"

Malfoy laughed and mimicked Ron's actions of losing the Quaffle, making Ron's hands tremble with anger. This was the eighth time this week, and it was only Tuesday!

"I bet two Galleon that Ron's plate won't last five seconds before it falls to the ground."

Blaise took a gold coin out of his pocket, held it between his fingers, and flipped it over, turning it into two.

"How boring. In which of his first seven attempts did he last more than five seconds? I think you should go read more books."

Theodore adjusted his glasses, picked up the tray, and walked to the side, gently placing it next to Olivia.

"Little pot, it's really cold here."

Ayi Duo crossed her arms and walked with Goyle down the corridors of the Hogwarts Academy and Wizardry. She had never experienced such cold weather before and shivered. After all, Yunnan Province was known for its year-round spring-like climate.

"You should wear my clothes; I'm not cold."

As he spoke, Goyle took off his large magic robe and draped it over Ayi Duo, wrapping the little girl up tightly.

Ayi Duo finished her training early today, so the two of them, having nothing to do, decided to visit Hogwarts Academy and Wizardry. Ayi Duo had never even left the city before, let alone gone abroad, and she looked around in amazement, touching everything with great curiosity.

"Ugh! What an ugly thing!"

The sudden appearance of the Peeves startled Ayi Duo, who was looking around, and she instinctively pulled a white snake out of her pocket.

"Oh, look what I've found! Um... take away that presumptuous look!"

"Can you understand East University?"

Goyle quickly shielded Ayi Duo behind him and explained the origin of Peeves to her.

"No, I don't understand, but her eyes were full of disdain for me!"

Peeves floated away, shouting and yelling, wanting a glance from the little girl.

The two encountered Professor McGonagall on their way. Upon learning that the girl was a guest of Slytherin, she merely warned them not to wander around the castle before hastily leaving.

"That A Mie guy seems so kind, I really, really love this place! Except for that guy called Peeves, he's so ugly, even uglier than my Haha..."

Ayi Duo took out her Toad and showed it to Goyle to see if what she said was true.

But Goyle thinks the ugliest one is the Bloody Baron...

"But I think the ugliest one is Ron Weasley. He's not even as good as a Toad, Haha Haha..."

When Young Master Malfoy overheard this, he laughed and mocked Ron.

Even earlier than the selection competition in the Miao Village came the Quidditch Match.

Early in the morning, Ron sat blankly on his bed, his eyes seemingly devoid of light.

"I think we should go have a big meal, let's go."

Seeing Ron sweating profusely with fear, Harry waved and pulled him toward the hall.

The hall was already packed with people and very lively. Young Master Malfoy held up his Pumpkin Juice, and countless people around him cheered for him.

Parvati complained to her best friend that Su Yu had taken her Neville somewhere and there had been no news for almost two weeks. After saying that, she slumped onto the table, looking listless and as if she had lost her soul.

Ayi Duo frowned, staring at the breakfast on the table with some disdain. She felt there was no hope for the future; what kind of family would eat fried fish and chips first thing in the morning?

"So why do I dip fries in vinegar? And why do I take a cold loaf of bread first thing in the morning and paint it..."

Ayi Duo's little head was filled with big question marks; she hated the food here...

"I think, Goyle, you should still serve Ayi Duo a meal of what the chief usually eats; at least she can still eat it."

Pansy turned her head and glanced at Ayi Duo, who was choking herself and staring at her with wide eyes, about to vomit. She said with some pity.

On the Gryffindor side, everyone was wearing red and gold scarves and hats, cheering for Ron and Harry's arrival. This made Ron feel like he was about to be executed, and he became even more restless.

"I must be crazy... How could I have chosen to be the Quidditch goalkeeper... I'm a complete waste... I'm the most useless one... I can't play at all..."

Ron sat in the chair, blankly repeating those words, as if giving himself a mental suggestion.

"Don't be like that, Ron. Believe in yourself. Don't you have your moments of brilliance during training too?"

Harry handed him a bowl of milk and got him some cereal.

"How are you, Ron?"

Ginny and Hermione came over too. Ginny opened her mouth and asked her brother, because she saw Ron staring at the bowl of milk, as if he was considering whether to stick his head in and drown himself.

"Um, he's just a little nervous, right, Ron?"

Harry explained to them.

"Being nervous is a good thing. Ron always does terribly on tests when he's not nervous at all."
