Chapter 239 Harry’s new broom

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspAfter seeing off their professor Lupine, the three returned to the restaurant. But what they didn't expect was that as soon as they stepped into the hall, Ron ran out in a hurry, with unusual excitement on his face.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Harry, Harry, are we brothers?" Ron asked excitedly.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Ah" Harry looked at Ron in surprise and asked, "What do you mean?"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce smiled: "Ron, you didn't break Harry's things again, did you?"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspRon was about to speak when Simon ran over and said with excitement: "Man, you must let me try it after you ride it."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHarry became even more confused and asked: "No, I don't understand what you are talking about at all, okay?"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp"Come here" Ron pulled Harry towards the dining table, where many people had gathered.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce and Hermione also walked over curiously, squeezed through the crowd and saw a long package placed on the dining table, but it looked like it had been opened. Opened and then simply wrapped.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "I'm sorry, Harry, I didn't open your package on purpose. It was just that it was not wrapped tightly." Ron explained.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHarry smiled and said: "It's nothing, whatever it is, I'll go."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspAs he spoke, Harry opened the wrapping paper, and a man who couldn't hold back his swear words came out, but no one would blame him, because no one would accept it. You will be surprised to receive such a gift.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspFirebolt

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspThe fastest broomstick in the wizarding world, there is no one else. If placed in the Muggle world, it would be a supercar. The Firebolt is attractive to anyone, especially boys. Especially boys who like Quidditch are simply more powerful than beauties.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce is of course no exception. When the Firebolt first appeared in Diagon Alley, he had fantasized about owning one, but unfortunately the price was really not something he could afford. . Even among professional teams, only the Irish team ordered seven Firebolts.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "I'm spending a lot of money here," Bruce said, looking at the Firebolt infatuatedly.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspYou can imagine the mood of Harry, the owner of this Firebolt. For him, this excitement is no less than winning the Quidditch championship for the first time. .

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHarry picked up the broom and asked excitedly: "Who gave this?"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce smiled and said, "You should be able to think of it."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHe picked up an arm-length feather in the package and handed it to Harry. It was Buckbeak's feather. Harry naturally knew who it was. Sent.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "There is another letter." Hermione picked up the envelope in the package and handed it to Harry, and then asked: "Ron, you didn't peek. "

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Hey, how do you talk? Can I do such a shameless thing?" Ron said dissatisfied.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce joked: "I think you are fascinated by the Firebolt and don't have time to look at it, haha."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHarry opened the envelope immediately, and it was a short letter: "Dear Harry, this is a belated Christmas gift. I thought you would appreciate it. Like, I’m very fine now, don’t worry about me.”

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspThere was no signature on the letter, and he didn't even recognize the handwriting, but Harry knew who sent it. Harry carefully put the letter into his pocket, picked up the broom and laughed, "I'm going to fly around now."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspEveryone immediately followed, and everyone came to the courtyard outside the gate. Harry couldn't wait to ride on the broom, and Ron immediately urged: "Hurry, Harry let's see how fast it is."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHarry said: "No"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspAs soon as the words came out of his mouth, Harry "jumped" out instantly. There is no word that is more suitable to describe it. The speed was so fast that in the blink of an eye Harry turned into a "little dot"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Oh my god, is this a broom or a rocket?" Bruce said in surprise.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHermione smiled: "How about the Firebolt?"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspAt this time, a voice came from behind them: "It seems that this year's champion is Gryffindor again."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspThe two of them turned around and saw that Cedric and Zhang Qiu were standing there looking into the sky.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Hi, Cedric, Senior Sister Zhang Qiu," Bruce said with a smile.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspCedric smiled helplessly: "Hello, Bruce, Hermione, I still plan to win the championship this year, but now it seems that it is not possible. ”

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce joked: "You feel bad when you see your opponent cheating, Cedric."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspCedric smiled and said: "Although I don't know what cheating is, I can understand what you mean. Yes, it is indeed very uncomfortable. If I want to have one A Firebolt would be great, I really envy Harry."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspZhang Qiu joked: "Even if there is, it is not a sure win. Have you forgotten that there is a lunatic like Bruce?"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Hey, senior, are you going to hurt me or compliment me?" Bruce said with a smile.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Haha, of course I'm complimenting you." Zhang Qiu said with a smile.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspAt this time, Harry also returned to the ground. Everyone immediately gathered around to ask Harry, and they were eager to ride on it and try it out. Harry was not a stingy person and agreed readily.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Bruce, why don't you try it?" Harry came over and said, "Oh, hello, Senior Zhang Qiu, and"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Cedric Diggory" Cedric said, holding out his hand.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHarry held his hand and said, "Oh, I know you. I have heard of your name a long time ago."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspCedric joked: "Haha, that's my honor. But it can't be compared with Harry Potter."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Okay, we're all friends, so don't compliment each other." Bruce smiled and said, "Harry, how about the Firebolt?"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHarry said excitedly: "It's simply awesome. The speed is so fast that I can't believe it. Originally, I was worried about turning at such a fast speed. There will be problems, but I didn’t expect it to be very smooth, even smoother than Nimbus 2000.”

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp Ron, Simon, and the others all made a test flight before Harry put away the Firebolt. Hogwarts has a special place for storing broomsticks, but haha Lee was unwilling to put his Firebolt in, and he decided to sleep with his arms around the broom today.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspAfter everyone dispersed, Cedric and Zhang Qiu handed Hermione a notebook.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "This is the plan compiled by Zhang Qiu and I. President Granger, please check it," Cedric said with a smile.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHermione started to read it immediately. After browsing it briefly, Hermione said gratefully: "Thank you so much, it's really perfect."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspZhang Qiu said with a smile: "This is a common cause for all of us, and it is what we should do."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Oh, by the way, I have another suggestion about this." Cedric said.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp"What suggestions?" Hermione asked.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspCedric said: "Bruce, I heard from my classmates that you helped a house elf of the Malfoy family regain his freedom last semester."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Yes." Bruce said: "Its name is Dobby, and he is working in the Leaky Cauldron now."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHermione's eyes lit up and she immediately said: "Cedric, you want Dobby to join in."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspCedric nodded and said, "That's right. I think any propaganda can't compare to real practice. Through Dobby, we can prove to the world, House elves who have regained their freedom can still live a good life and can still facilitate our lives, and all we need to pay is some money. For those families, this is completely insignificant, and it is the same as for others and ourselves. A good thing."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHermione said excitedly: "I absolutely agree, this is a good idea. You are awesome, Cedric can now solve the doubts of the club members. .”

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspAfter this period of screening, the current members of the Elf Welfare Association are all people who sincerely want to work hard to change house elves. However, many members of the society have raised doubts, the most important of which is whether house elves can continue to survive after gaining freedom, because many house elves live very miserably after obtaining clothes from their masters.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspDobby is indeed a "good advertisement" and can prove to everyone that house elves can live a better life without being slaves.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBut then Bruce said: "I shouldn't discourage you, dear, but we must take into account that not all house elves are like Dobby yearned for freedom like that."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "That is freedom. Is there anything more precious than freedom?" Harry said.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspZhang Qiu said seriously: "No, Harry Bruce is right. This is also the biggest problem we are currently facing."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Yes," Cedric said sadly: "Actually, I once had a house elf in my family. My mother once said this before she passed away. I was willing to give him freedom or pay him, but the house elf actually started punishing himself, and if my mother hadn't stopped him in time, it would have almost killed itself."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp"Oh my god" Hermione turned pale with fright and said incomprehensibly: "This is simply unbelievable."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspCedric said helplessly: "Yes, it is indeed unbelievable."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Even Dobby punished himself before he was free." Harry said.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce said: "Take your time, we can't take it for granted, after all, nothing can be successful all at once."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspJust like Bruce said, "take your time", everything has to take your time. The same is true in life. Harry used to be very angry and said that something bad would happen every semester. Harry's crow's beak predictions were accurate at least until his third year. However, things this semester were resolved quickly, and nothing major happened in the following days.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspWith the help of the Firebolt, Harry simply became a "bug". He has broken the Hogwarts record and became the fastest Seeker to catch the Golden Snitch in the history of Hogwarts. It is estimated that this record will not be surpassed for a long time.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspThe final exam was originally a good opportunity for the Weasley brothers to make a fortune. But these two live treasures actually gave up this opportunity this year. The reason is also very simple. According to Ron, the two of them also had the idea of ​​opening a gambling game, but the two guys actually did a "market research" in advance, and the result was that almost everyone would bet on Bruce to win.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspIt’s a small bet. What’s more important is that according to Bruce’s grades, there is almost no suspense about being ranked first this semester. So the two decided to "take a break" for a year, but when the final exam was over, they almost regretted it to death.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBecause Hermione successfully "counterattacked" this year and "pressed" Bruce behind her, Bruce was not surprised by this result. After all, Hermione had more talents than him. This doubled the study time. Unfortunately, George and Fred didn't know about the time turner, so they missed this opportunity to make a fortune. To be continued.
