The Chinese girl from Hufflepuff is both timid and brave

The annual Quidditch match at Hogwarts lasts for nearly half of the school year, starting in November and ending after the Easter holidays of the following year.

As December approaches, after each college has played at least two official games, the Christmas holiday is not far away.

Originally, her father said he would take her and Yuanbao out to play, just the three of them. Unfortunately, the Ministry of Magic was obviously short-handed this year, and had been recruiting men to work overtime.

Although Britain does not seem to encourage this kind of overtime culture, the fact that ordinary people do not have it does not mean that even the minority of wizards do not have it.

After her father sent a letter of regret to Sun Zhu, she couldn't help but start to wonder what the Ministry of Magic was busy with recently, and why it even didn't let go of the people from the Sports Department.

Moreover, there is no one who is cunning or slacking here, and the company's image to the outside world seems very reliable.

I wonder if the situation will still be like this when the new minister Fudge takes office next year?

No, will the new minister still be Fudge?

"What are you doing, Zhu?" came Karina's lazy voice.

"I wonder who will be the next Minister for Magic?"

Karina popped her head out from behind the curtains of her four-poster bed. "What? You're actually thinking about that!"

Fina couldn't help but look over, as if wondering if she was Senior Cecilia in disguise after drinking the Polyjuice Potion.

"Haha, what I mean is, I hope the next minister can give my dad more holidays. I can't go abroad for Christmas this year!" Sun Zhu laughed and lay down on her big bed, "Go to sleep! Tomorrow is the last Quidditch game before the Christmas holiday. Slytherin is not easy to deal with."

"During the Christmas holiday this year," Fina said hesitantly, "If you have nothing to do, you can come to me."

Sun Zhu stood up from the bed, and Karina poked her head out again. Seeing that both of them were staring at her intently, Fina couldn't help laughing: "What are you two doing? Do you think I don't celebrate Christmas?"

"I was just thinking, what a pity." Karina half opened her eyes, "Although I really want to go, my mother has already said that she will take me back to my grandmother's house for the holidays. If nothing unexpected happens, I can't communicate with you during this entire holiday, because I'm afraid that the owls will scare the Muggles over there."

Sun Zhu waved his hand: "Go and have fun. Fina and I will miss you. Fina, it's a deal. I will go find you to play when the time comes~"

"Okay, I'll give you an address. That's my grandmother's former home. No one else in the Bulstrode family knows about it except my aunt. No one will disturb us then. My aunt is too busy with her business to come." Fina winked at her. "It's not far from a busy Muggle street. We can go for a stroll when we have time."

Karina wailed, "Damn it, why can't I go with you!"

Sun Zhu and Fina looked at each other and said, "Maybe it's because your grandmother misses you very much. Of course, you should spend Christmas with your family first."

"Spend more time with her when you have time." Fina smiled slightly and said, "When she was still here, you didn't know how many people envied you."

Karina suddenly rushed out of bed, pounced on Sun Zhu and Fina, and hugged them one by one: "I'll make an appointment for your Christmas vacation next year, and the three of us will go out and play together!"

"Okay, since you love us so much." Fina said reluctantly.

Sun Zhu covered his head with the quilt and tried to hold back his laughter: "Karina, you may not know that the number of people who want to spend Christmas with me can be lined up from here to France, but... I allow you to cut in line."

On the day of the match with Slytherin, the weather was unexpectedly good. The sun was shining brightly, and although there was a little bit of cold wind from time to time, the conditions were generally not that bad.

Hufflepuff's last match was a month ago against Ravenclaw. Although they won, they only had a 10-point lead.

Slytherin and Gryffindor had already played against each other before and lost by 90 points, so they really needed this game to regain their advantage.

Before the game, the two teams greeted each other as usual. Compared to the half of the female players in Hufflepuff, Lilith Green, the only one in Slytherin, seemed a little lonely.

Anna broke the cold mask she maintained in front of other students, smiled at Lilith, and gave her a hug as she looked at him with a little surprise.

Sun Zhu heard the golden-haired David Miller say to Flint beside him, "She doesn't think we will show mercy if she shows weakness, does she?"

She couldn't help but roll her eyes, turned to Cedric and said, "Today's goal is to kill Slytherin! We must get the Golden Snitch, understand!"

Cedric nodded. "Slytherin's Seeker isn't that difficult to deal with. As long as Miller and Flint don't target me too much..."

"It's impossible not to target you." Cecilia shook her head. "I've asked Madam Pomfrey to prepare some more medicine for your wounds. I hope you don't need it."

Sun Zhu's eyebrows jumped. It was rare to see Senior Sister Cecilia so pessimistic.

"Host, you don't have to worry too much." The system suddenly said: "I have a method, you can try it."

Sun Zhu listened attentively to Xiao Tongzi's words and fell into deep thought.

"Sed, do you have the amulet with you?" she suddenly pulled him aside and asked in a low voice.

Cedric was stunned for a moment, and said apologetically: "It's in the inner pocket of my hospital robe. I didn't bring it out today."

Sun Zhu took out a small golden cloth bag like a magic trick and stuffed it into his team robe pocket: "Then use this today."

Cedric glanced at the gold embroidery on the bag and was a little confused: "Is this... some kind of magical animal? It looks very majestic."

"Hush, don't let others see." Sun Zhu gestured for silence. "It's exclusively supplied by China. It can protect you from extra damage. But normal collisions in a match are unavoidable."

Cedric continued nodding, "I understand. I'm ready. Don't worry."

Sun Zhu nodded, then carried the broom to meet Anna and Karina. In fact, she had just stuffed the dozing Mr. Long into Cedric's pocket.

Uncle Long has a built-in golden light that protects his body. He doesn't need to do anything extra to block many malicious magic attacks.

She didn't think that Slytherin would be so blatant as to cause trouble on the field. But she didn't have confidence in the character of Flint and others, so she simply listened to Xiao Tongzi's advice and, after discussing with Uncle Long, asked him to transform into a "talisman" and follow Cedric for a while.

As for why Uncle Long is so easy to talk to? Because Sun Zhu told him that Cedric is a player who specializes in chasing "ball spirits". Staying with him, you can follow the Golden Snitch in real time and experience a different perspective of the game.

Of course, Sun Zhu did not forget to remind Uncle Long not to assist in "cheating".

She believed in the character of her teammates, but was afraid that Uncle Long would have too much fun and forget everything she said.

Moreover, if the dragon's identity is exposed, wouldn't it shock the entire magical world?

But overall, Uncle Long is a friend she can trust. So...

Sun Zhu glanced at Cedric who was listening to what Senior Cecilia was saying, and the faint golden light in his pocket that only she could see, and patted her chest and said, "Hold steady, we can win!"
