Everyday Players at Hogwarts

At 1 o'clock, on the flat grass outside Hogwarts, a group of young wizards stood next to their flying brooms.

Unlike the anxious Hufflepuffs, most of the Ravenclaw freshmen were very confident. In their opinion, they had already read "The Origin of Quidditch" in advance and even attended a lecture held by a current Quidditch team chaser. Flying, isn't that a piece of cake?

Madam Hooch was a vigorous witch. In her class, she didn't call the roll. She started with practical exercises and didn't give any chance to the young wizards who were still nervous.

"Stretch out your right hand and place it above the broom handle," Madam Hooch shouted in front, "and say: 'Get up!'"

"Get up!" Everyone shouted.

Ryan's broom immediately jumped into his hand, but there were only a few brooms that were so obedient. Harry's broom was the same as Ryan's. In addition, there was Ernie Macmillan from Hufflepuff, who was very big, a little conceited, and very hardworking.

From a previous conversation, we can see how hard he works.

"How many hours do you think you can review a day?" He asked Harry and Ron anxiously before the Potions class.

"I don't know," Ron said, "a few hours."

"More or less than eight hours?"

"I think less," Ron said, with a somewhat alert look on his face.

"I can review for eight hours," Ernie said, puffing out his chest, "eight to nine hours. I review for an hour every day before breakfast. The average is eight hours. If everything goes well, I can study for ten hours on the weekend. I studied for nine and a half hours on Monday. Tuesday was not so good - only seven hours and a quarter. Then Wednesday -"

At that time, because of Snape's entry, the conversation ended like this.

Magic props such as flying brooms, like horses, can show your inner timidity.

Although Harry was a little unconfident, when he was a child, before he was attacked by Voldemort, he could freely manipulate the toy broom. Although he had no memory, he subconsciously did not believe that he could not successfully summon the broom.

Ernie Macmillan, who was a prefect in the original world, was also very conceited, so Ryan was not surprised that he succeeded.

Anthony, who was originally going to be a Ravenclaw prefect, may have had his confidence shaken by Harry's presence, causing his broom to only rise slightly, and he was almost successful.

Ron, Neville, and others had the same broom as Anthony.

Hermione's broom just rolled on the ground, which was similar to the performance of most young wizards, but Hermione was obviously unhappy. This was her only Waterloo course.

The only brooms that did not move at all, like Neville in the original world, were Dudley and Wayne Hopkins, an unknown guy who had no role in the novel.

My two most precious items are a pair of small notebooks containing my first doodles about Harry Potter. Most of them were never used in the series, although surprisingly, the strange lines of dialogue were later published verbatim.

One of the books lists the names of Harry's forty students (including Harry, Ron and Hermione), all the assigned houses, and small symbols next to each name, depicting the origin of each boy or girl.

Wayne Hopkins is one of the original forty people mentioned in JK Rowling's words. In the setting, he still exists in Hogwarts, but he has never appeared in Harry's perspective.

Ryan observed this guy with interest, but after a long time, he found that he was no different from other little wizards.

And Madam Hooch, who has just started formal teaching, interspersed in the crowd, showing them how to ride on the broom without sliding off their heads.

And correct the hand grip from time to time. Here, those who make more mistakes are born in wizard families. Most of them have been exposed to toy brooms, which makes them master all kinds of weird and wrong grips.

However, Ron has a family background. His brother Charlie is the best seeker recently. Madam Hooch can't find any fault with Ron's grip. She just glanced at it and passed it.

Harry was even more amazing. His subconscious grip on the broom was already the most standard.

Dudley also mastered this very well, perhaps because he often hit Harry with his Smelting cane.

Finally, after about 30 minutes, all the little wizards had mastered the correct grip.

"Okay, when I blow the whistle, you kick your legs and leave the ground. Push hard." Madam Hooch said, "Hold the broom steady, rise a few feet, then lean forward slightly and fall vertically back to the ground. Listen to my whistle - three - two -"

Almost everyone floated in the air with the broom, only Dudley, who inherited Harry's uncle's attitude towards magic. Although he already had the talent of an adult wizard in advance, he still stayed on the ground because of his disbelief, fear and rejection of magic.

From Ryan's perspective, Dudley's adult wizard power was absorbed by the broom, generating an upward force, and Dudley's own lack of confidence actually made him create a new phenomenon, an invisible magnetic force was generated between the ground and his body, offsetting the upward force of the broom.

No, more than that, the magnetic force became stronger and stronger, and then - snap!

The broom was broken, and Dudley fell heavily to the ground. Mrs. Hooch and the students next to him were stunned, and Harry even curled his lips sadly.

Ryan couldn't help but be surprised. Good guy, Dudley is playing a magic version of the Thousand Jin Pendant. The bottom plate is stable enough. If this continues, Dudley won't become a monk in the magical world!

"How is that possible? In the more than 20 years I have been teaching, no little wizard has ever been able to crush a broom!" Mrs. Ho Qi asked in surprise, "What's your name?"

"Dudley Dursley." Dudley said tremblingly. Dudley seemed to be trying to shrink his body to appear smaller, but his efforts were in vain.

Mrs. Huo Qi obviously recited the name silently several times in her mind, trying to remember the name.

"Okay, wait a minute. If a broomstick is such a delicate instrument, it may have bad effects if it is restored to its original state. I'll go to the broom room in the foyer on the first floor and get another one to have a look." Mrs. Huo Qi said, Then he turned to the other students in the class and said, "Put the broomsticks back where they belong. Don't play with them when I'm not around. If I come back and see you, then be careful about your college points!"

After a while, Mrs. Huo Qi strode towards the door and then disappeared.

"Anthony, did you just see that? It's not magic!" In the long silence, Michael was the first to break the wordless silence.
