Harry and Slytherin captain Urquhart glared at each other, and when he turned to return to the team, Harry grimaced in pain, his hand was about to break.

"Listen to my whistle," cried Mrs Hooch, "three-two-fourteen players soared into the sky amid a roar of cheers, and the weather today is as they were on the ceiling of the auditorium. As I saw it, it was clear and translucent, as if it had been wiped with a wet rag. The goalkeeper flew to the goal first, and the three Chasers performed their respective duties.

Harry stopped Perks and Gut—the two were batters, eager to try with a bat. Harry took a circle, leaned in on them, and called out in a low voice, "Don't forget the plan." Gut With a 'no problem' gesture, Perks responded with a grunt,

Harry had single-handedly asked them to strategize, getting them to pay more attention to the goal a few minutes before the game, supporting Ron with a Bludger if necessary. This is the batsman's job originally, but this year's Gryffindor team is a bit special, more than half of which are fresh blood, which makes the overall state of the team unstable, and the most important position of a team is to find the ball. The hand belongs to the goalkeeper.

Harry has made statistics in private that Ron's entire training state has a lot to do with the success rate of the previous ball throws.

In addition to that - Harry also found that Perks seemed to have a little interest in Chaser Demirza Robbins,

Ron, who had mocked Demirza's flying "like a sleepwalking duck", feared Perks would bring his emotions to the field.

"Don't forget we're one," Harry shouted, and flew away resignedly.

He glides lightly in the sky like a foraging owl, flying higher and higher, looking from the stand to see only a small black dot, he always keeps his eyes away from the sun, trying his best to The Golden Snitch is caught in the flash of a telescope lens below

"Slytherin's Urquhart got the Quaffle," a stupefied voice drifted over the court. "He's the team captain, he's a big guy, about the same size as his players, I guess it's a special kind of Selection method - can hold down the sweeping belt when dealing with windy and other bad weather, of course, the weather is very good today, I saw giant squid lying on the ice and basking in the sun-"

The audience in the stands looked towards the Black Lake,

The narrator of this game was indeed Luna. Her outfit was the same as usual. Her fluffy light yellow hair was mixed with some colorful pebbles the size of fingernails, shining in the sun. There was also a lion-shaped hat on the table in front of her, the size of a real lion's head, which Harry knew could make a very realistic roar, and Professor McGonagall, who was next to her, was fidgeting, and every two seconds Take a look at it.

"Urquhart started to attack, he looked fierce, I felt more pressure than the last player who got the ball, the back seems to be wider-"

"It was him last time too!" Professor McGonagall reminded her loudly.

The audience burst into laughter. Luna said blankly, "Really? I didn't recognize them, they all look alike-- oh look, Ginny cut the ball, I like her, she's nice--three Slaters Lin players gathered around, Ginny passed the ball to Demirza, an equally skinny girl, Gryffindor seems to have a tradition of picking girls as Chaser, the opposite of Slytherin."

"Now it's Slytherin's turn to get the ball, it's in, the Gryffindor keeper missed, what a shame, maybe it's the sun, but Ron looks a little deflated - a\"

"Team Slytherin is 10-0!" Professor McGonagall yelled into Luna's microphone.

Harry's heart sank as he lowered his flight height to see Ron with his back to the goal, expressionless. Perks and Gut were close together, Ginny with a wad of fiery red hair, shouting angrily at the two of them:

"What are you doing?" At this moment, a fast Bludger flew towards Harry, Harry bowed his head suddenly,

The Bludger flew past his scalp, and when he straightened up, he saw Gregory Goyle grinning at him, swinging his bat.

Luna's ethereal commentary came from the stands again.

"Gryffindor Seeker Harry showed up, he was far away, maybe to adjust the tactics Gryffindor played conservatively, their batsman stayed in his own half and didn't want to come out." Luna said calmly: "We should be considerate of them, they are playing for the first time, of course, there may be some tactics that I can't see, I don't know much about Quidditch."

There was loud laughter in the stands,

The disadvantage of the lack of two batsmen was still apparent. The three Gryffindor girls looked **** against the Slytherin Chaser and had to be wary of the Bludgers flying out of nowhere, Ginny Both grabbed the Quaffle and were forced to give up.

"The Slytherin players are leading the attack under the captain's lead - huh? Gryffindor batsman Perks is finally moving, away from his own goal, is this a welcome change?" Luna said: " But the other one is still in circles, he seems to be Ron's bodyguard, although he is only one-third of Ron's size, but on the premise that he can't use a wand, a wooden stick is still very deterrent- —\"

"Oh look! Slytherin's three Chasers broke through half-court and they kept passing the ball to each other,

Not sure who to pitch? Now is not the time to hesitate—a"

"Slytherin used Kipling tactics." Professor McGonagall interjected to explain.

Harry lowered his height nervously, his heart hung up. The so-called Kipling strategy refers to a team's three Chasers approaching the opponent's goal at the same time, quickly swapping Quaffles in high-speed motion, and only giving way at the last minute. The person with the greatest advantage enters the scoring zone and throws the ball, so that the goalkeeper on the defensive side cannot accurately determine who is the main attack, and he will ignore the other.

Ron's face turned pale, and the broom swung back and forth between the three giant rings, indicating that he hadn't made up his mind. The batsman Gut slapped the air weakly, unable to do anything. At this time, there was a loud "Bang!" One by one. Fly out.

It's Perks!

At one point Harry thought he'd given up on his orders to help Ginny and the others, but Perks saved some of the situation with a hard shot across half-time, and then Ron finally made the right decision, and he threw himself forward in the second half. With a one-in-one probability of success, Urquhart's pitch was saved by a thrilling escape. Cheers on the field.

"Nice!" Harry shouted, a smile on Ron's face, though Harry was praising Perx, it didn't matter. "Fight back!" Harry yelled. "Gut, let them know how good you are!"

With a bright smile on Gut's face, he caught the Bludger from Perks, aimed his backhand at Urquhart, and with a bang, Urquhart stumbled on his broom and straightened up as if nothing had happened. body, making a rude gesture towards Gut. Then a timeout was called.

"What a good shot,\" said Grindelwald in the stands, putting down his binoculars. Dumbledore looked at the field with a smile, but did not speak.

At this time, Mrs. Hooch blew the whistle, Harry and the others landed, and the medical staff checked the Slytherin player who was hit in the back of the head. He kept shaking his head, looking dizzy, and seemed to have a concussion. But when Madam Pomfrey fed him a large pot of potion, he resumed playing.

The game started to get heated. This is an elegant rhetoric. To put it another way, it means unscrupulous, and let’s be more straightforward—

"The game became ugly," Luna said regretfully. "Slytherin players seem to suffer from clingy all the time. They stick to each other very closely, and the good girls in Gryffindor are not used to it. "She really seemed to think so, and for the next ten minutes she focused her attention on 'more interesting places, such as the oddly shaped clouds in the sky, the pattern printed on the giant banner in the stands: a small silver-green snake with its mouth open. swallowed the lion.

"I didn't see the bulge on the snake's belly," Luna said seriously. Professor McGonagall, who was standing on the side, had a stern face, his fingers constantly bent and stretched, as if he wanted to grab the microphone from her hand.

Harry wasn't interested in banners.

He swam over the field, occasionally alerting the back of Draco Malfoy's head glistening in the sun, and Draco took the opposite tack to Harry's, gliding close to the turf. Both methods have their pros and cons. If Draco happens to find the Snitch nearby, the game will be no suspense, but his search efficiency is obviously not as good as Harry's - but this is also impossible, past game results Proof that the Snitch can always be found one step ahead of others when Harry is in good shape.

But Harry's first appearance as captain made him always unable to help focus on the players on his team.

On the field, Slytherin's Chaser Warrington occupied a favorable position with his size, constantly blocking Ginny's sight, and the other two players pinned Demir to death, looking like two fat heads and big ears. 's cabbage caught a pitiful little tomato. They dashed straight for the ground, and Demirza couldn't get away with ramming left and right, and was about to hit the ground, thanks to Gut's Bludger helping her clear the siege.

This is also the style and tactics Slytherin is good at, and it is closer to a primitive form of Quidditch-air collision, similar to the medieval horse and spear fighting, the only purpose is to knock other players off the broom as much as possible. Go down and leave the last one as the winner. This is what Wood told the players when he was still alive, and he used it to mock the Slytherin team's brains that fell centuries ago.

Later, Harry found a detailed version in the book "The Magic of Quidditch",

"But sometimes it does work," Wood himself admitted to the merits of the Slytherin team's tactics:

"It's rare to find a talented player, but the average player can easily gain the upper hand with an exaggerated body size - except for Seekers, who are generally weak." He said comfortingly to Harry.

On the court, the commentary platform has been silent for five minutes, because today's commentator seems to be distracted and completely immersed in his own world. But Luna finally remembered her duty when loud shouts erupted from the stands.

"It's Katie who has the ball now, she's an old player and experienced," she said cheerfully. "The three Slytherin Chasers are busy fouling, and the road ahead is smooth, just be careful not to get a Bludger. hit

—Oh, whoa, whoa,” she let out a series of exclamations, her eyes bulging. “Katie’s teammates helped her clear the way, and she’s going to face the Slytherin goalie, sorry, I forgot his name. Professor McGonagall grabbed the microphone angrily and was about to say something when Luna suddenly opened her eyes, "Look!"

The crowd exclaimed,

Katie Bell seemed to have made a mistake that shouldn't have been made, she was diving with the Quaffle, and the opponent's goalkeeper was watching her movements without blinking, trying to see the doorway, but he was facing The same choice as Ron - the opponent's speed is too fast, and it's too late to reveal his true intentions, he can only estimate a general direction to rush out, and the goal opens instantly.

At this point, if Katie swerved abruptly—it's easy because she weighs only half the weight on the other side—she'd have an unguarded goal, but Katie gave up and took the initiative to put the The Quaffle was thrown out, and the movement was very light, as if afraid that the opposite side would not be able to catch it.

The goalkeeper caught the ball with ease. He was stunned, unable to believe his good luck.

Great sighs and boos from the stands,

Mrs. Hooch, the referee, shoved the silver whistle into her mouth, ready to blow, and a botched match-fixing incident occurred in front of her, but she changed her mind immediately - a "Harry!" Katie shouted.

Harry followed her line of sight and saw a small golden ball hovering quietly in the center of the Slytherin goal.

There was a surge of ecstasy in him, the broom sped up, and everything in the field slowed to his eyes: Draco had just turned his head back, a smile on his face, as if delighted by his opponent's big mistake; Slater Lin's goalie was cheering with a Quaffle in his hand, and even ran up to Katie Bell and waved his fists in a demonstration... This is the moment, Harry thought, leaning over like a golden-red javelin, swiping at the goalkeeper. Over his head - Harry could even see his open back molars, and then he reached out and scratched.

Got it! Harry circled in the air and stopped in front of the goal, his arms raised, the Snitch's long, narrow wings sticking out of his fingers.

The stand was stunned for two seconds, but Luna was the first to react. Of course, it was probably because she didn't feel that something was wrong. When the stadium was silent, she ended the game with her clearest voice.

"Harry caught the Snitch, game over."

Enthusiastic spectators turned out beautiful flags from all corners of their bodies~www.novelhall.com~The stand instantly turned into a scarlet sea.

Cheers echoed in the cold sky, mixed with roars and moans from the Slytherins. Slytherin captain Urquhart rushed over and yelled at Mrs Hooch, accusing Gryffindor of cheating, but even the harsh referee couldn't fault it, exchanging ten for one hundred and fifty It's big money.

"Katie Bell - Katie Bell - Katie Bell - \"

It was the first time when Harry caught the Snitch, another player's name was being shouted enthusiastically, but Harry didn't have the slightest bit of jealousy in his heart, he jumped off his broom, hugged Katie Bell tightly, and followed The audience on the field called her name together, and then more players rushed down and hugged.

There was a little accident in the middle.

Luna took advantage of Professor McGonagall's attention and secretly put on her lion head hat. The roar of the lion spread through the microphone of the commentary station, and everyone was dizzy and confused. Harry saw McGonagall The professor's face elongated, his mouth opened and closed, but no sound could be heard. He suspected that he was temporarily deaf.

There were many smart people in the audience, and some people were the first to think of taking out a wand and shooting fireworks into the sky, and then attracted a large number of imitators.

Ginny's fiery red hair jumped in front of her eyes, her face flushed like a tempting syrupy fruit tart, and Harry finally couldn't hold back the urge in his heart and kissed it.

Ginny was a little surprised at first, then responded enthusiastically.
