Chapter 162： 2 things before the holiday (1/2)

If you say anything is the most depressing, it is almost.

However, sometimes, it's almost a lot worse.

In the end, Ravenclaw College still failed to find out, and it was still ranked second in the College Cup by five points until the day of the year-end banquet. It must be false to say that the Ravenclaw students are not depressed.

That night, Albert and his roommates went to the auditorium for the year-end banquet.

The auditorium has been finely decorated with red and gold representing Gryffindor, and a huge banner painted with a Gryffindor lion hangs on the wall behind the main guest seat.

The students in Gryffindor were all speaking loudly, their words filled with the joy and confidence of winning the College Cup.

Compared with Gryffindor, the students of their next-door neighbor Slytherin were less happy. It's no wonder they couldn't be happy. Slytherin Academy won the Academy Cup for four consecutive years. It was... it was broken like this, and it was still lost to Gryffindor, which he hated the most. It's only strange to be in a good mood.

Ravenclaw’s students are estimated to have the most complicated mood and the most depressed, they are only a few points away from the championship. No one misses it to make Ravenclaws regretful, but they are also happy to see Slytherin. The fiasco.

As for the Hufflepuff students, they haven't won the Academy Cup for a long time, and they didn't care much about it. Anyway, seeing Slytherin, who doesn't like fair competition, is a cause for celebration.

Not long after, Dumbledore arrived in a hurry. He stood on the podium and raised his hand to signal everyone to keep quiet. The noise in the auditorium gradually subsided.

”Another year has passed!” Dumbledore said cheerfully, ”Before you enjoy the delicious food, you certainly don't like listening to my old nonsense. However, we still need to carry out the Academy Cup award ceremony. The specifics of each college The scores are as follows: fourth place, Slytherin, two hundred and fifty points; third place, Hufflepuff, 395 points; second place, Ravenclaw, 439 points, third place One, Gryffindor, 444 points.”

At this moment, there was a thunderous cheering from Gryffindor's dining table, the voice was deafening, and some students shouted hoarse with excitement.

Fred, George, and Lee Jordan followed the crowd and stood up to applaud and applaud. Albert also clapped vigorously, pretending to be excited. He couldn't help muttering in his mind, ”What an unlucky score.”

While cheering, Lee Jordan stabbed Albert with his elbow and raised his finger to his neighbor next door. The Slytherin students had ugly expressions on their faces, as if they had just been punched in the nose.

In the auditorium, except for the Slytherin students, everyone was applauding, whether it was celebrating Gryffindor's victory or celebrating Slytherin's fiasco.

Professor McGonagall in the main guest seat also stood up and shook hands with Professor Snape, with a cheerful smile on his face.

During the dinner, Fred and George invited Albert to visit their home during the summer vacation.

Unfortunately, this invitation was declined by Albert because their family already had their own summer vacation plan. Herb wrote a while ago to tell Albert that the family was going to France for summer vacation.

Fred and George felt sorry for this. They always wanted to thank Albert for saving them. The Weasleys obviously had similar ideas.

At the dinner, everyone was full, except Fred and George.

After all, it’s easy to get sleepy after eating enough and drinking enough. If they missed tonight's revenge action, they would never have a chance to retaliate against Filch this semester. This is obviously not the situation that the Weasley brothers would like to see.

It's hard to bear with Gryffindor getting the Academy Cup, and finally you don't need to worry about anything anymore, how can you give up?

After twelve o'clock, Fred and George began to act. With the help of Albert's illusion curse, they first made some movement in the castle and attracted Filch, who was about to rest, to the armor corridor on the fourth floor of the castle.

Then, George took the opportunity to sneak into Filch’s office and smeared the bottle of garlic-flavored beeswax on the corner of Filch’s office. Not to mention, the smell is really choking, and the effect is more amazing than the big dung egg .

After all, you can still see the source of the smell in the big dung egg, but once beeswax is applied in the corner, you can't even find it, let alone remove the source of the smell. In just a moment, the whole office plus Filch's bedroom It was filled with a choking garlic smell.

After Fred found George returning to the Gryffindor common room through the live spot map, he immediately withdrew, leaving Filch, who was still struggling to find their whereabouts on the fourth floor.

After knowing that he was being tricked, Filch deserves to go back to the dorm to rest annoyingly.

When Filch opened the wooden door of the office, he was immediately shivered by the strong smell of garlic. He rushed into his office angrily, trying to find the source of the smell.

For a moment, Filch's angry roar echoed in the administrator's office. As for his wife, Mrs. Lorice, he avoided the administrator's office full of garlic.

”You said, will this matter be a bit loud!” George listened to Filch's roar, turning his head to Fred.

”If I were you, I would get rid of the smell of garlic first, so that no one would suspect it on your heads.” Albert appeared silently in the lounge, reminding the two who were discussing.

”Oh, you're right!” George also smelled the garlic on his hands and hurried to wash his hands.

The next morning, the story of Filch's revenge spread in the castle, and everyone was wondering which fierce man made Filch's office smell like garlic.

However, no one sympathized with the administrator, more gloating.

Albert and his party also pretended not to know this. In fact, they are more focused on the final exam results.

Hogwarts will announce the students' final exam results on the last day.

”Look, you really are the first in this class.” Fred stabbed Albert with his elbow and said with a smile.

”Your grades are also very good.”

Fred, George, and Lee Jordan all passed the exam with high scores.

”I guessed you would be number one.” Shanna smiled and walked over to talk to Albert. ”But I think Katrina must be angry.”

Albert smiled and shrugged his shoulders, saying that he couldn't help it.

He himself has no feeling about winning the first place. This student is just that person. The first place does not seem to be proud of. His goal is to complete the panel task. Fortunately, ”in the name of genius” and ”all aspects” The tasks of ”rolling” have been completed.

Although Katrina said she wanted to compare herself with someone who had better results, and was finally rejected by Albert, the competition seemed to be effective, at least in the panel's judgment.

Katrina won the second place this year, and it is also all excellent, but in terms of scores, it is still a little bit behind Albert.

At this moment, Katrina, who was also standing in the crowd checking her results, was staring at Albert with extremely annoyed eyes.

She was angry, mad at herself, mad at losing to the guy who didn't study well in the final exam.

While everyone was enthusiastically discussing the exam results, Professor McGonagall showed up with a bunch of notices.

She asked the freshmen to sign a letter of undertaking in the past, promising that they would abide by the ”Reasonable Restraint of Minor Wizards” outside the school.

After signing, I will send you a notice and warn you not to use magic during holidays.
