Then, the two of them slept facing each other for nearly an hour in the dappled sunlight under the shade of the trees.

Dolly did not meet Qiu Zhang again for the entire weekend.

Qiu Zhang did not come to see Dolly again, but immersed himself in training.

Even if we meet by chance in a restaurant, we just nod and say hello, without any further communication.

And in just one day, Qiu Zhang had already regained his reputation in Ravenclaw.

Just as Dolly had predicted, a girl who was so good at flying a broom was indeed an eccentric for a Ravenclaw.

But obviously they like such freaks, regard Qiu Zhang as the star of their academy, and expect Qiu Zhang to bring them honor.

As for everything that Qiu Zhang was worried about, basically nothing happened, and no one thought that Qiu Zhang's sudden change of image was an outrageous thing.

In other words, it is reasonable that a person is like two different people in the stadium and in the classroom.

Look, isn't Miss Dolly Dursley the perfect example?

As for other colleges, nothing major happened throughout the weekend.

Or perhaps this is normal campus life. In comparison, Dolly's life in the first few days of school was too fulfilling.

However, with the arrival of Monday, Gryffindor and Slytherin began to stir again.

Because everyone is discussing, will Malfoy really give Harry a flying broom?

Still want to send the light wheel 2000.

No one thinks that the Malfoy family cannot afford the money, but people also wonder if Malfoy can afford to lose face.

This is indeed the case. After Malfoy wrote the letter home, he was scolded by his father Lucius Malfoy.

It's not about scolding Malfoy for gambling, nor is it about scolding Malfoy for wasting money, but about scolding Malfoy for actually losing.

If you want to make a bet, you must be sure of winning. Whether it is a victory on the field or a trick before the start of the game, you should be prepared for it.

It was as if Lucius, as Voldemort's right-hand man, easily escaped punishment in the end. This was the preparation he made for himself after going to the gambling table.

If Voldemort wins, he will become an important minister under the Dark Lord.

The Dark Lord lost, and he was just a victim of the Imperius Curse, and he paid a fine and was done with it.

In comparison, Malfoy was just relying on an inexplicable self-confidence, and then being cheated out of hundreds of gold Galleons by Dolly and Harry. This was pure stupidity.

Malfoy came to the restaurant early on Monday morning with a gloomy face and ate his meal in a depressed mood.

Almost every long table in the college cast strange looks at him, as if they were looking forward to Malfoy's performance.

Harry and Ron were very happy. They didn't think Malfoy would definitely give them a Nimbus 2000, after all, this broom was not cheap.

But if Malfoy really broke his promise and made a fortune, Harry and Ron could use this to mock Malfoy for seven years, and he would have made a lot of money no matter how you look at it.

With the sound of flapping wings, the owls began to deliver letters and gifts to the little wizards again.

Dolly and Hermione also received their reply letters to their families, and Dolly's gift was delivered by two owls with their claws together.

Because Vernon followed Dolly's advice and opened an account on the stock exchange and invested several thousand pounds in the American Cato Company.

Vernon had no intention of making money originally, he just listened to his daughter's advice and had a go, but in less than a month the stock price increased by more than 30%.

This gave Vernon hope of making money and made him more aware of his precious daughter's talent.

He then invested half of his savings, about 50,000 pounds, into it and bought Dolly a lot of snacks from the Muggle world.

Dolly even saw Coke and potato chips in it, and her eyes lit up.

Dolly has such a natural body that she can never gain weight, so she would be doing herself a disservice if she didn’t indulge in junk food!

Of course, Dolly naturally didn't want to keep it all to herself, so she shared it with Hermione.

Just as Dolly was about to feed Hermione potato chips with her own hands and feel the warmth of Hermione's lips with her fingers, bursts of exclamations were heard.

An owl came in through the window carrying a broomstick and looked in Harry's direction.

This instantly attracted everyone's attention, and Harry and Ron were even more stunned. Could it be that Malfoy really gave Harry a Nimbus 2000?

Finally, the owl dropped the broomstick over Harry's head, and Harry quickly stood up to catch it.

A large group of people gathered around, and Ron said excitedly, "Open it quickly and see if it's real."

Harry quickly untied the rope, and Ron and Neville helped to tear open the package. The next second, a work of art that looked countless times more advanced than the tattered brooms in school appeared in front of everyone.

The Nimbus 2000 is made of mahogany, with a smooth and shiny body and a beautiful reddish-brown color. There is also a gold-plated registration number on the top of the broom handle.

Its broomstick has a small, slender tip, is straight, neat and elegant, and is a deep, dark brown color, which helps to improve balance and precision.

Overall, just like the name of this broom, it is made for speed and agility, and is the most suitable broom for Harry, the Seeker.

"It's really the Nimbus 2000!"

Ron screamed, and so did the whole Gryffindor table.

Ron even stood on a chair and said to Malfoy in the distance: "Malfoy, you are great. I admit that you are trustworthy. You are our Gryffindor's friend forever... not this year, not even before the game between our two teams!"

Ron's words seemed like praise, but in fact they were a deep mockery.

As the most senior Slytherin family member, Malfoy became a friend of Gryffindor and sponsored Gryffindor's Seeker with a Nimbus 2000. If this isn't a betrayal of his own house, what is?

So much so that the members of the Slytherin Quidditch team looked at Malfoy with strange eyes.

Although Malfoy looked grim, he remained silent, but his eyes were shining, as if he was expecting something.

"Come on, Harry, let's go for a fly!"

Ron pulled Harry and was about to run out, but Harry hesitated and said, "Can I do that now?"

"It's all right, Harry," said Oliver Wood, the current captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team. "Anyone can go and experience the joy of flying as long as it's on the grass outside the castle and they don't have flying lessons or Quidditch practice."

As for why there are relatively few people flying on a regular basis, the answer is simple: most people don't have their own flying brooms.

The simplest flying broom is not expensive and many families can afford it, but just as Muggle families will not let their children bring their own motorcycles to class, wizards will not easily allow their children to bring their own flying brooms to school.

Harry grinned and ran out excitedly.

When most of the Gryffindor spectators had left, Malfoy suddenly burst out laughing.

Dolly did not go with them because she was still sorting out her bags of snacks. As for her brother's demeanor, there was plenty of time to watch the Quidditch match later, so there was no rush.

Malfoy's chuckle undoubtedly attracted her attention.

Malfoy also realized that something was wrong and continued to eat with his head down, pretending to be dead.

But Dolly had a bad feeling in her heart, and turned around and wanted to go out to see what happened to Harry.

But then they heard a scream from outside. When Dolly and Hermione ran out, Oliver was already carrying Harry, who was unconscious and had a broken arm, and was running towards the school hospital.

"what happened?"

Dolly's face turned ugly, and Ron was so angry that his eyes turned red. He cursed loudly: "That bastard Malfoy did something to the new broom!"

"Harry just accelerated and the tail of the broom broke. The broken end was hidden in the broom tail and we didn't see it!"

"He did it on purpose. He asked his father to do something bad and try to kill Harry!"

After saying that, Ron stormed into the restaurant angrily, intending to beat up Malfoy.

At this time, Malfoy stopped pretending and laughed and asked his men to stop Ron, while refusing to admit what had just happened.

"Harry Potter's own skills are not good, what does it have to do with me?"

"He broke his broom himself, and you can blame me for that?"

"Let me tell you, red-haired beetroot spirit, my father simply placed an order with the manufacturer, and then the order was sent directly to you. The broom never even reached us. Who knows what happened?"

"Even if Harry didn't break it himself, maybe the owl did?"

"Even if Harry was unlucky and got a defective product, you can't blame us!"

Malfoy's face turned vicious and he said, "If you continue to talk nonsense and insult our family, I will ask my father to report you to the Ministry of Magic and make your stupid father lose his job."

"Then I'll see how you can survive with so many beetroots in your family!"

Ron's momentum softened immediately.

Although he can say harsh words and win the battle, if he really faces Malfoy alone, he will definitely not be Malfoy's opponent.

Malfoy is far superior to Ron in terms of both talent and family background. Perhaps only when Ron grows up and no longer feels inferior in the future, will he be able to truly fight Malfoy one-on-one.

But Ron knew he couldn't win, but he still had backup.

He looked at Dolly, his eyes full of pleading.

Malfoy naturally saw Dolly as well, and his eyes immediately became a little flustered, but he still looked timid and maintained a confident smile.

More people also turned their eyes to Dolly, obviously wanting to see what Harry's sister would do.

Although Dolly hasn't shown much outstanding performance these days, everyone inexplicably believes that if this girl takes action, it will definitely be very different.

Neville also ran over at this time, dragging the Nimbus 2000.

"Dolly, this is a broom. I don't know if it will be of any use, but I brought it to you."

Dolly nodded to Neville and said, "Thank you very much, Neville. It is indeed very useful."

She picked up the broom and carefully examined the tail. Although it looked like a natural break, the mark was very fresh and there was no sign of secondary damage.

But Dolly still found the problem, which was that the cracks were slightly misaligned.

If it is a fracture, most of the burrs should be able to fit together, but here there is a gap of about the thickness of a piece of paper missing between the fractures.

Obviously, it must have been sawed in half by some means, and then temporarily put together by some force, with the crack covered by the broom tail.

The person who did this was not an ordinary murderer. He was obviously very familiar with the flying broom. While destroying the flying broom without being discovered, he could also ensure that the performance of the flying broom would not be damaged.

It will only be unable to withstand the damage when it is subjected to extreme acceleration. From this point of view, Malfoy and Lucius cannot do such a thing even if they want to.

But isn't that really what they do?

No, it's still them, but they just didn't do it themselves.

Of course, they wouldn't admit it if Dolly asked.

So Dolly didn't intend to ask them who the murderer was, but instead said, "Malfoy, I'm going to ask you a question. If you answer it well, I'll admit that it was Harry's own bad luck."

Malfoy had been prepared to argue with Dolly, but when he heard that Dolly wanted Harry to blame himself for his bad luck, he suddenly smiled smugly and said, "Ask."

"It's very simple. Are you sure your family bought this broom for Harry? It didn't pass through anyone else. It was sent directly from the company, right?"

Malfoy nodded, raised his chin proudly, and said, "Yes, it is."

"Very good. Everyone heard it. There are at least a hundred people here, including those from four colleges. You are all witnesses."

Dolly raised a scornful smile at the corner of her mouth and said, "Malfoy, you win, you can laugh out loud now."

72 Chapter 2 Who in the family understands?

Dolly asked Malfoy to laugh, but Malfoy didn't laugh.

He even stared at Dolly's hands and couldn't help saying, "Dursley, are you going to hit someone again? You always wave your stupid fists at Hogwarts. Don't you know how to use magic?"

Of course, after saying that, he retreated into the Slytherin camp.

There were more than twenty Slytherins now, including many senior students. Even if Dolly really raised her fist, she would not succeed.

Dolly certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to wave her fist at this time. She would definitely cherish the gift that Malfoy himself gave her.

So Dolly turned around and left, not wasting words with Malfoy, but went to the school hospital to check on Harry's condition.

Malfoy was left standing there in a daze, and only laughed out loud again and declared himself victorious when Dolly's figure disappeared from the restaurant door.

The Slytherin students also praised him, not feeling ashamed at all for Malfoy's methods.

As many people have summarized, Slytherin's character is all about victory and he has a weak sense of morality.

Of course, not every Slytherin is like this, but this is the general environment, and the vast majority of Slytherins still choose to follow.

Soon, Dolly arrived at the school hospital.

Harry had woken up at this time, but his arm was bandaged and his face was pale.

When everyone saw Dolly coming, they immediately made way for her.

Dolly sat in the chair in front of the bed and asked, "Harry, are you okay?"

Harry nodded slightly and said, "Sister, I'm fine."
