Chapter 176 Black Dog and Godson
The rain was getting heavier and it was starting to become difficult for the students to watch the game.
If the students who didn't bring umbrellas looked up at the sky, the rain would pour into their eyes. But few people were willing to leave the court and go back to the castle.
So the students put their hands on their eyes and tried hard to chase the swift-footed figures in the rain.
Suddenly, a sharp whistle sounded. Harry raised his arms high and circled in the air on his broom. The Gryffindor players cheered and rushed towards him.
Then, Madam Hooch loudly announced the victory of the Gryffindor team, and the entire stands burst into applause and shouts.
Malfoy was standing nearby, looking pale as he watched the scene. The captain of the Slytherin team flew over and yelled something at him.
"Brilliant! Did you see the moment he caught the Snitch, Remus? It was brilliant! He caught the Snitch right next to the Chaser's ear!"
Sirius roared and clapped his hands, and though he couldn't see it, Vader was sure he had jumped up and down several times.
"Wade, who is that stupid Slytherin Chaser?" Sirius asked loudly.
"Draco Malfoy," said Vader.
"Lucius Malfoy's son?" Sirius bared his teeth and muttered, "That cunning snake!"
Then he shouted even louder: "Well done, Harry! Knock that Malfoy off his broom!"
"Shut up, Sirius!" Lupin said angrily, "You are making such loud noises, are you afraid that others will not notice you?"
There were no students near Wade and the others, but a student in the front few rows was already looking back curiously.
He saw that only Wade was behind him and smiled politely, as if he thought he had heard it wrong.
Sirius turned back to Lupin with a relaxed look:
"Remus, did Harry's behavior just now resemble that of the fourth grade? I remember that James wanted to show off in front of Lily, and he flew in front of her, but was knocked off his broom by Snape..."
Suddenly there was a cry of surprise from the crowd, and several people immediately turned their heads to look over.
There was a mid-air argument between the two teams, and a large Slytherin player threw a Bludger that knocked Wood off his broom; the twins rode their brooms into several other people, and the girls screamed.
Dumbledore stretched out his hand just in time and, from a long distance, stopped Wood in the air just before he fell to the ground.
"Stop, everyone stop!"
Madam Hooch rushed into the fighting circle of students like an angry eagle and shouted angrily: "No matter who it is! Anyone who continues to fight will be banned from participating in the competition again."
The players stopped angrily, still cursing at each other in low voices. Suddenly, a thin figure fell straight down from the air.
"Harry!"
Sirius yelled and ran downstairs, but was caught by Lupin.
Spells were fired simultaneously from the teachers' seats and the stands, catching the falling Harry.
"That's great, thank you, Vader."
Lupin said hurriedly, putting away his wand, and the others quickly ran down the stands, trying not to run into other students.
At this time, Harry, who had fallen to the ground, was surrounded by a group of people. Among them, Lockhart, who was dressed like a green peacock, was separating the students, raising his wand and shouting:
"Look, I can heal you in just a second. Don't worry, Harry, it's a simple spell, I've used it countless times."
Harry was lying on the ground, hugging his arms and groaning. He seemed to be talking, but it was completely inaudible amid the sound of the rain.
Wade stopped in his tracks and immediately grasped his wand. Just as he was about to stop Lockhart, he suddenly stopped again.
—I'm sorry, Harry.
Wade muttered to himself, opened his eyes wide, and watched Lockhart's movements intently.
Lupin and Sirius didn't realize that this was the Lockhart that Harry often complained about in the Friends' Book. When they saw that it was a professor, they instinctively stopped.
Lockhart twirled his wand dramatically, pointed at Harry's arm and said, "Arm repair!"
A second later, Harry's arms dropped down like rubber gloves, and the people around him gasped, revealing expressions of fear and disgust.
"The bones in his arm are gone!" Wood, whose head was bleeding, had originally wanted to seek treatment from the professor. Seeing this, he covered his head and screamed in horror. When Lockhart looked at him, he was so scared that he stepped back repeatedly.
Gryffindor's Arya hurriedly put Wood behind her, as if Lockhart was some kind of monster.
"Ah... um... haha, sometimes little accidents happen..."
Lockhart smiled awkwardly.
"Okay, Harry, at least you're not in pain anymore, right? Go to the infirmary... let Madam Pomfrey help you... uh... fix it."
He fled in a hurry, vaguely thinking he heard the roar of some wild beast.
"I'm going to kill him! I'm going to kill that bastard!" Sirius roared through gritted teeth.
"Yes, yes, but not now... Remember? We sneaked in..."
Lupin said, dragging him towards the school infirmary.
Wade took out his wand and quietly cast a levitation spell on Sirius's clothes. Sirius was lifted up by his clothes, his arms and legs fluttering, but he couldn't resist Lupin's drag.
Finally Sirius gave up struggling and said unwillingly: "We must teach him a lesson! How dare he treat Harry like this!"
"Of course, this is necessary." Lupin agreed decisively.
……
Madam Pomfrey was the one who could actually heal the arm in a second, but after the bone was pulled out, it would take at least one night for it to grow back.
Ron drew the curtains and helped Harry change into his pajamas. Madam Pomfrey made him drink a large glass of bone spirit and then sent away the students who had brought Harry here.
"He needs to rest now, get out! Everyone, get out!"
In the corner, there were three people who had cast the Disillusionment Spell.
It was very difficult to grow bones again. After Madam Pomfrey left, Harry, lying on the bed, endured the pain and groaned intermittently.
"Remove the spell, Remus."
Sirius said in a hoarse voice.
"it is good."
Lupin agreed and removed the Disillusionment Charm.
Harry was startled. He half-supported himself to sit up, his eyes widened in surprise: "Sirius, Remus, and Wade? Why are you here?"
"I watched your competition." Sirius smiled and said, "It was wonderful... You flew really well..."
Harry grinned, seeming to have forgotten the pain.
After they chatted for a while, Wade and Lupin prepared to leave, but Sirius sat on the edge of the bed and showed no intention of getting up.
"Sirius?" said Lupin.
"You guys go." Sirius said sullenly, "I want to stay with Harry tonight."
"It's time for Harry to go to bed."
"I'll watch him sleep." Sirius said stubbornly, "I won't disturb him!"
"Okay..." Lupin had no choice but to follow him, and reminded him again: "Don't get discovered."
"I know...wait, give me back my wand." Sirius said again.
Because he couldn't carry his wand after transforming into an Animagus, he gave his wand to Lupin early in the morning and asked him to keep it. After transforming back, Sirius also forgot to take it back.
Lupin returned the wand, said goodbye, and walked out of the ward.
Wade looked back and saw Sirius sitting beside the bed with his head down, talking to Harry in a low voice, like a loyal big dog.
