Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

233. Chapter 233 sleepless Christmas night

    It’s one thing to know that Sirius is sending a Firebolt to Harry, and seeing it is another matter.

    Ivan expressed deep shock at the ruin of Sirius.

    In the room, Harry showed the sparkling broomstick to both of them.

    Unlike ordinary brooms, Firebolt can hang in midair even if no one touches it. Without any support, the height from the ground is just right for people to ride.

    The top of the broom is engraved with a gold number, showing that the broomstick is the twenty-second Firebolt made in the world.

    At the end of the broom is a perfectly smooth, streamlined curve that looks extremely perfect without any need for trimming.

    Harry was the best Seeker of Hogwarts. Now with this international broomstick, there is no way in the school that someone is faster than him.

    With his current strength, he can even go to a professional competition.

    Ivan can imagine that the future Quiddich confrontation at each college will be Harry's performance time alone, and he suddenly expects Malfoy's reaction when he sees Firebolt.

    The atmosphere was pleasant and the fire was sizzling. Ivan and Hermione were holding a cup of hot cocoa and sitting on the comfortable sofa in front of the fireplace.

    In front of them, Harry held a slightly trembling Firebolt and kept talking to them about various technical terms to explain the superior performance of Firebolt from a professional perspective.

    He is continually talking about everything he will know.

    It can be seen that Harry is well prepared, and although he is the first contact, he knows Firebolt well.

    Unfortunately, Ivan and Hermione are not too interested in broomstick and Quiddich.

    In addition to the initial stunning, knowing that this broomstick is expensive, their response to Firebolt is gradually flattering.

    Continue to listen to Harry for a while, wait until the two people finish the hot cocoa in their hands, before the fire of the hearth, the intense temperature and strong sleepiness and fatigue at the same time. They lost interest in explaining Firebolt and Harry's and didn't want to listen anymore.

    Ivan and Hermione exchanged a look, and they nodded with a tacit understanding.

    Through eye contact, even if they don't speak, they know what the other person is thinking.

    "I am sorry, Harry!"Hermione stood up and stretched out. "I'm glad you received a Firebolt, but there are so many things happening today. It's a bit late now, I want to go back to sleep…"

    "Oh, yes, time is really too late."Harry didn't say it, he just seemed to notice the time, and he was about to get close to zero. "Good night, Hermione!"

    "Good night, Harry, I wish you a good dream!"Hermione said happily.

    Ivan just breathed a sigh of relief and saw Harry turning his gaze to himself.

    "Ivan, are you not sleepy? We can continue to discuss the possibility of using Firebolt to complete Plumpton doubling, which you know is almost impossible to do with a normal broomstick. ”Harry continued, "But with Firebolt's data, in theory…"

    In fact, Ivan is not at all clear.

    He also just listened to Harry, only to know what "Plumpton copyback" means, this is a Seeker terminology: it seems to carelessly turn around in the air, pick up Golden Snitch and hide it.

    This action was named after the Tatehill Tornado's Seeker Roderick Plumpton. In 1921, Roderick Plumpton used this trick in his famous game of breaking Golden Snitch's record.

    Although many critics assert that Plumpton's move was only an accidental coincidence, Plumpton insisted that he intended to do so until he died.

    Anyone who knows a little about Quiddich knows that this difficult action is a miracle for Seeker.

    Because broomstick's performance and speed of response cannot be faster than Golden Snitch, unless it is a coincidence, this action is simply impossible.

    In fact, Plumpton retries have only appeared once in history.

    But now with Firebolt, in theory, this fantastic Quiddich action has the possibility of being completed for the first time.

    It seems that Harry still wants to continue.

    Ivan had a headache and hurriedly stood up and said that he had to send Hermione back to the room.

    Harry nodded helplessly, and as such, they both left the room in a hurry.

    Leaky Cauldron has no one in the dim, narrow corridor on the second floor. The doors on both sides are closed, and the sound of the carnival downstairs is looming.

    Ivan and Hermione walked slowly and no one spoke.

    The atmosphere was a bit awkward, and the tacit understanding of the two people disappeared instantly.

    Speaking of it, this is the first time they stayed alone after kissing under the Christmas tree.

    "Hermione…"Finally, Ivan couldn't help but break the silence.

    Now is an opportunity, he can try to continue the things that have just been done.

    "Don't say, Ivan, I know it!"Hermione jerked her head up and looked at Ivan, her face was lovely pink, and she said seriously, "I won't refuse you, but I hope to give me some time." That thing has not happened for a while, is it good? ”

    Looking at Hermione in front of him, Ivan nodded helplessly, and once again blamed the girl named Elaine's Vampire.

    If she didn't get caught up with her, then just catch up with Hermione and things wouldn't be as complicated as they are now.

    Seeing Ivan nod, Hermione breathed a sigh of relief and looked a lot easier.

    "Merry Christmas, Ivan!"She whispered, "And, good night!"

    As I watched Hermione turn and walked into the room, the door was gently closed, and the brass brand hanging on the door swayed, and Ivan sighed.

    I repeatedly told myself that this is normal development now. If Hermione agrees with his confession and lets herself enter into her room, it is totally a dream.

    When Ivan swayed back to the room, I saw that Harry hadn't slept yet. He simply washed and was waiting for himself with Firebolt.

    I can see that he was too excited tonight.

    In fact, not just Harry, everyone seems to be like this.

    There are so many things happening today, too many tonight, and I don’t know how many people are insomnia.

    Harry was still trying to say something about Firebolt and Quiddich. Ivan was lying in bed and didn't know how much he listened.

    He can imagine that if Ron is here, he will accompany Harry in the room for a whole day, staring at the broom in a foolish way, praising it from all angles. He can't do this, but he doesn't have to worry about it, because according to the plan, they will go to St. after lunch in the middle of tomorrow. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries visit Ron.

    Harry can show off his broom once in time, and if all goes well, Sirius will convince Mrs. Weasley let Ron leave the hospital early.

    At that time, you can liberate yourself.

    Ivan thought this way, his eyes were getting more and more heavy, and his thoughts were getting blurred.
