The Hogwarts Emerald

Chapter 26 Hogwarts after the attack

Hogwarts also underwent some changes after the attack. Students always gathered in groups of three or five, for fear that they would be attacked if they were left alone. Even male students went to the toilet in groups.

During the day, professors who do not have classes will patrol some relatively remote corridors. At night, professors will work in groups of two to conduct a thorough search of the castle.

The professors who had been checking the castle for more than ten days found nothing. The attack that everyone was worried about did not happen again. It seemed that Daniel's incident was just an accident and he was unlucky.

Daniel left Hogwarts three days after he was attacked. During the three days in the school infirmary, Daniel was full of fear of everything. He would throw anything at hand at anyone who approached him, even Madam Pomfrey.

Daniel's condition did not improve at all and he could no longer continue his studies. His mother, Mrs. Bell, had to take him home to recuperate.

The tall and strong Daniel huddled in the thin arms of Mrs. Bell. Only in his mother's arms could the boy feel safe.

Mrs. Bell did not make a fuss at school. She was strong from beginning to end and did not shed a single tear. She just hugged her poor child tightly in her arms.

With the help of Dumbledore, she took Daniel out of the school. She supported Daniel's body with her thin shoulders, and the mother and son slowly left in the first snow of November.

The professors' search of the castle during these days had greatly hampered Ada's progress. Her completion of the [Night Tour] mission had stopped at five times, which was only half completed.

If she goes out for a night stroll now, it would be a crime against the law, which is no different from seeking her own death.

Ada now hangs out with the twins every day. When the twins play pranks, Ada is responsible for finding the target and keeping watch. Compared to the perpetrators of the attack, the Gryffindor classmates "hate" the three of them more recently.

The twins would also patiently accompany Ada to the library, although most of the time the two brothers were just slacking off or planning their next prank in detail.

Ada also took Fred and George to visit the girls' bathroom on the second floor. With the care of the three people, Myrtle had to temporarily avoid the spotlight and escape from her "nest".

Having achieved her great revenge, Ada laughed triumphantly, just like a villain in a play.
Ada, who had reoccupied the bathroom, resumed her temporarily interrupted practice plan, and she also asked the twins to practice together. This not only helped the twins to improve, but also served as a review process for Ada.

When there was Quidditch training, Fred and George would force Ada to leave the warm castle and go to the Quidditch field to watch Gryffindor training. The twins thought Ada needed to breathe more fresh air instead of staying by the fireplace all the time.

The twins had been trying to introduce Quidditch to Ada since the beginning of the school year, but Ada was still not very interested, especially after she realized that she was not very good at using a broomstick.

Ada was forced to attend Gryffindor's training every time, but she just sat on the sidelines stubbornly reading a book, occasionally clapping to give Charlie some face.

But as the weather turned colder, her hands became increasingly cold while reading outside, and wearing gloves was not very convenient. Ada had no choice but to put down her beloved little schoolbag and began to concentrate on watching Gryffindor's training.

Ada developed a strong interest in Quidditch without even realizing it. In this context, the Gryffindor Quidditch cheerleader and the first Hogwarts Quidditch baby were born.

If Adakan took off his robes and put on some simple clothes, he would be both perfect in form and spirit, and would definitely be a box office guarantee during Gryffindor games!

But Ada would not do this, not because the weather was too cold, but because her remaining sense of shame did not allow her to do so. She always wanted to be a queen, not a little princess who was pampered by others.

Today was another day when cheerleader Ada was forced to work. She was standing next to Hagrid, and she looked even smaller next to him.

Although Hagrid supported Gryffindor in every game, he seldom came to watch Gryffindor training, and every time he appeared on the training ground, Ada would stand beside him.

It's not that the relationship between the two is so good, but that Hagrid's half-giant bloodline gives him a huge body. This huge body can help Ada block the cold wind in Scotland and get a large tool man.

Under the care of captain Charlie, the twins got the chance to play on the court for a while today and play a half-court offense and defense with their teammates.

The twins were only in the first grade, riding on old broomsticks. As chasers, they did not perform very well, so they naturally received special attention from "Key Fairy" Ada. "George, can you play? Pass the ball..." Ada put her hands to her mouth and shouted, "Fred, didn't you have lunch? Why is your shot so weak? Like..."

Ada realized that she was a sissy and stopped talking. She changed her tone and shouted, "Can you two cooperate a little more? Aren't you twins?"

This is of course not that Ada is "bullying the weak and afraid of the strong" and only dares to bully the twins, but that other members of the team, Ada, do not accept the truth at all...

Under the continuous output of "Key Fairy" Aida, the twins finally picked up their spirits, and the two played better and better. The two with their small universes bursting out attacked continuously under the defense of the regular players, played several good balls, and helped their team close the score.

After being slapped in the face, Ada finally calmed down, put down the "keyboard" in her hand, and began to watch the game quietly.

Hagrid looked at the little girl beside him and was puzzled. She was such a lovely girl when she was silent, but why did she become a different person when she opened her mouth? Women are really magical creatures!

In the end, the twin brothers still lost the game. They played very well in the second half, but they still couldn't make up for the big hole they dug in the first half. If it weren't for the twins' performance, the game would have ended long ago.

Although they lost the game, the twin brothers did not get discouraged. They walked quickly to Ada and asked, "How was it? We did well, didn't we?"

"Well, it's just so-so." The game was over, so Ada naturally wouldn't say anything more. "There's still a lot of room for improvement."

The twins had expected nothing useful from Ada. Ada was not even half-baked. She was eloquent on paper, but once she got on the broom, she immediately lost her balance and revealed her true form.

As for Ada's beautiful words, the twins didn't take them to heart. She was still a child. How could she have any bad intentions?

After saying goodbye to Hagrid, Ada and the other two left the training ground and headed towards the castle. It was already dark, and Ada could already hear the hall calling her.

Fred and George sandwiched Ada on the left and right, which was obviously a revenge for Ada's foul language just now. There are many reasons why the three of them can become friends, one of which is that the three of them do not bear grudges, and they basically take revenge on the same day, without leaving it overnight.

"I still prefer the batsman position, George," said the Weasley to Ada's left, who was obviously Fred.

"Fred, I thought so too. Swing the bat to hit the Bludger and disrupt the opponent's attack..." The Weasley on the right was naturally George.

"This is so wonderful!" the two of them said in Ada's ear.

"Let's talk about which position you play after you become official team members." Ada said. She rubbed her ears with her hands. The twins were talking loudly in her ears on purpose. Ada, who was being squeezed like hamburger meat, could only endure it silently.

"Next year, next year you will see us on the list of official members." George set a flag.

"And he will definitely be a starter." Fred reinforced it and said, "Would you like to make a bet? One silver Sickle?"

Although Ada's Quidditch skills were not very good, with the help of the system, Ada was making great strides towards becoming a master of Quidditch theory, so she still had a good vision. She admitted that the twins were good, but the school team was not run by their family, so they could just start as the starting player!
No, Charlie should still be the captain of the team next year. If Charlie intensifies the training of the two brothers, maybe they can become starters!

Ada struggled to break free from the twins' "revenge", shaking her head like a rattle. She didn't even look at the twins, and trotted all the way to the castle.

Ada was so hungry that her stomach was sticking to her back. She was still a child. She needed to eat on time and replenish her nutrition. Anything else was out of the question.
