213 Selection and fist
Gideon's inexplicable impersonation of Fabian at the first Fire Crab Club party did not disrupt Callan's rhythm of life. He even had time to watch this year's Quidditch player selection.
In the Quidditch auditorium, many people came here to watch the excitement. Karan found that Regulus was still sitting next to Sirius like a little tail. On the other side of them, there was an inexplicable expression on his face. Remus turned pale, and Peter looked at the court with envy.
Callan's eyes paused on Remus for a brief moment.
Counting the days, tonight is almost the night of the first full moon this semester.
But even so, Remus still braved his physical discomfort and came to the Quidditch pitch to encourage his few friends.
As a werewolf, he values this hard-won friendship more than anyone else.
Karan looked away, and now it was James' turn on the court.Although he is a Gryffindor, there are still many students from other houses who come for him, especially those who are official Quidditch players.
They had no doubt that James would be successfully selected into the team, but they were just curious about how he would perform and planned to use this to gather intelligence.
"I thought you would also participate in the selection."
While watching, Karan suddenly said something to Lily beside him.
When she was in Hogsmeade, the Nimbus 1001 given to her by Karan was her favorite, and she wished she could hang it on her broom every day.
But after returning home, because she was worried about being discovered by her Muggle neighbors, she had to lock up the broom and didn't take it back to Hogwarts until school started.
"Like flying doesn't mean you have to join the Quidditch team."
Lily smoothed her hair that was blown away by the wind. She pointed to the playground and added in a disgusted tone: "Especially when you have to be on the same team as this guy."
The person she was referring to was James, who had already mounted his broom. He performed several difficult moves in the air wantonly, earning a warm cheer.
"Don't waste time!"
Mrs. Huo Qi shouted: "This is a timed selection, not for you to do these fancy things!"
James then gave up on playing tricks, but this seemed to be just a plot planned in advance.When he seriously faced the selection, he could fly faster than everyone before him, and his skills were much more proficient than those people.
"Exhibition guy."
Another person next to Kahlan - Snape said sarcastically.
Karan did not come to the stadium alone, but three of them came together.
Among them, perhaps only Karan really wanted to watch the selection. The other two had other purposes - the potion ingredients they purchased finally arrived in Hogsmeade and are now in Karan's house. inside the house.
This was the result of the discussion between the three of them. Snape did not want to worry Mrs. Prince because of this trivial matter, so he chose Callan's place as the mailing location.
Lily and Snape originally wanted to continue discussing how to get the ingredients back, but before arriving at the stadium, Karan quickly told them: He would get the ingredients back tonight and put them in the magic box. In the medicine preparation room, it wouldn't take him too long.
And now the two of them no longer spend any time thinking about this matter. It is too simple and cannot trouble Karan at all.
What's more important is that they have been attracted by another thing Karan said.
That is the matter of Gideon impersonating Fabian.
It's just that when dealing with this matter, their focus is somewhat different from Karan's.
"Have you started investigating the professors now?"
After realizing that she couldn't concentrate on watching the selection, Lily simply asked directly: "And you are planning to investigate two professors at once?"
Compared to Lily, Snape's attitude was much more direct.
"So, is this your goal for this semester?"
"Two living professors?"
"Like those Acromantulas from last semester?"
After hearing his question, Lily's eyes immediately widened.
"Could it be that...you want to deal with the professors of Hogwarts?" she asked in disbelief, her stunning green eyes filled with shock.
"Perhaps we should think carefully about what kind of potion to choose."
Before Karan could explain, Lily said to Snape solemnly: "If it doesn't work, we will have to give up the plan of preparing potions this semester."
Snape nodded solemnly, his eyes full of vigilance under his long hair.
The two of them also subconsciously moved to both sides to maintain a safer distance from Karan.
In other words, sit farther away from him.
Karan turned his head back and forth with an innocent look on his face, and finally he helplessly spread his hands and said, "Look at what you look like now."
"That's why I won't tell you so many things at the beginning of last semester."
"This is simply unacceptable to you."
What was originally an unfavorable situation turned into a sharp weapon. Even Mrs. Huo Qi, who was far away on the court, shouted loudly at the right time!
"Good job!"
James had just completed his own selection. Even though he deliberately delayed his departure, he still came out on top and became the well-deserved No. 1!
Now he is flying back and forth in the sky in a show-off manner.
At the same time, after a period of silence and multiple eye contacts, Lily and Snape helplessly sat back down next to Karan.
"Fortunately, this time we only chose [Shrinking Potion]."
Lily murmured softly: "This kind of lesson that you will learn in third grade will not make you more dangerous."
After a pause, she added with some self-deception: "At least it's safer than [Living Hell Decoction]."
"As expected of being number one in the grade!"
Karan deliberately said loudly: "Now even the third-grade courses are no longer noticed by the second-grade you."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk...Eh! Don't hit!"
Lily hit Karan several times in anger and annoyance, her face turned red.
Snape watched with pleasure. He always felt an indescribable feeling of depression in front of Kahlan who calmly said annoying words.
So he took advantage of Karan's cover of his head and hit him twice as if to relieve his anger.
But unexpectedly, Karan suddenly raised his head and stared at him closely.
Snape paused for a moment. He awkwardly maintained his raised fist posture, having missed the opportunity to cover up.
Simply, he punched out.
"Hey!"
Karan stared at Snape with wide eyes, not expecting that he would actually dare to hit him in front of him.
But Snape was not stupid enough to wait for Karan to fight back. After throwing the punch, he jumped up from his seat and ran stiffly outside the stadium.
Karan stared at this scene dumbfounded, and then he watched Lily stand up in the same way. She finally gave Karan angrily and ran away.
Snape, who was not far away, slowed down. After waiting for Lily to catch up with him, the two of them looked back at Karan, who was still in a daze in his seat. Lily was the first to couldn't help but giggle.
"Finally let me get a chance for revenge!"
She hummed and said, rubbing her somewhat red fingers.
Snape silently watched her careful movements, dazzling red hair and eyes bent with smile, and the worry in his heart about Karan's revenge suddenly disappeared.
Snape couldn't bear it any longer, and his thin cheeks curved into an arc.
He also laughed.
