This wave of Quidditch fever at Hogwarts lasted for a long time, and the related books in the library were quickly borrowed out. People who wanted to borrow books had to wait in line until after Christmas.

"I should have come earlier if I had known."

Harry said in annoyance at the entrance of the library on the second floor.

His special training time is at seven o'clock tomorrow night. He had originally thought about reading some related books in advance to learn more about this aspect.

However, the librarian, Mrs. Pince, told him that it was out of stock and if he wanted to read it he would have to wait until after Christmas.

But it’s still several months away from Christmas, which is too long.

"It can't be helped." Ron said with a smile, "Everyone is talking about Quidditch. If you don't know anything, you will be laughed at."

As he spoke, Ron raised the corners of his mouth unconsciously.

Because he knows something about Quidditch and has two brothers on the college teams, he can be said to be quite popular these days, with a group of little wizards surrounding him wherever he goes.

This feeling of being noticed and valued by everyone was something he had never experienced before.

"How about we go ask Hermione?"

Harry said tentatively, "I remember she had a copy of Quidditch Through the Ages. I wonder if she's got it back."

"I think we should forget it."

Hearing the name, Ron's grin suddenly disappeared.

He frowned and said with a bitter face: “She hasn’t spoken to us for a long time since she came back from the fourth floor that day.

And Gryffindor knows that Hermione never borrows a book for more than three days."

After Ron said this, Harry also remembered...Hermione was indeed like that.

From the first day of school, she always carried two books with her, one was the textbook she needed for class, and the other was borrowed from the library.

Not just pretending, but really watching.

In addition, when in the common room, she seldom communicated with other little wizards, and always sat alone in the corner reading quietly.

I don't know who first discovered it, but she said she would basically change the books she borrowed from the library every three days.

Seamus Finnigan had even sworn to the two that she wouldn't last a month.

But judging from the current situation, he was probably going to lose. If Hermione changed one more book tomorrow, he would have to buy a box of Bibi Every Flavour Beans for everyone in the dormitory.

Harry didn't mind a box of candy, but he still couldn't understand how Hermione managed to finish a book in just two or three minutes.

For him, even finishing a book in two weeks is a difficult task.

"Forget it then." Harry sighed.

In fact, he was also quite afraid of seeing Hermione. The invisible aura of that academic master always made him nervous.

"Or, ask Kyle."

At this time, Ron suddenly said, "I heard from Fred and George that he has books about Quidditch, and more than one."

Harry was somewhat tempted, but still hesitant, "But I don't know Kyle. Will he lend me the book?"

"Don't worry, I'm here." Ron patted his chest, then pulled Harry downstairs.

"Besides, we have to try it to know if it works... Come with me, we will go find him now."

The two searched the castle, from the underground classroom to the astronomy tower, but could not find Kyle.

Somehow, even the twins and Cedric seemed to be missing.

Finally, when he was on the astronomy tower, Harry accidentally glanced outside the castle and saw several people fishing by the Black Lake.

…

At the edge of the Black Lake, Kyle looked at the panting duo and asked, "Isn't it in the library? The collection there is much richer than what I have here. You can just go and borrow it."

"They've all been borrowed." Harry took a breath and said nervously, "Mrs. Pince said we have to wait until after Christmas to get one."

On the way here, Ron had said that he could borrow the books for him, but Harry thought it over and decided it would be better to ask in person.

After all, it was he who really wanted to read the book, not Ron.

"Are Quidditch books so popular now?"

Kyle looked at Harry's nervous expression and didn't say much. He just took out his wand.

"The Origin of Quidditch is coming!"

Soon, a thick book drew an arc in the air and fell lightly into Kyle's hands.

"You should read this one first."

Kyle handed the book to Harry. "It contains some flying instructions, which are more suitable for novices like you."

Read more of the latest popular novels at 6.9*shuba!

"Thank you, thank you!"

Harry quickly took it, "I'll return it to you as soon as possible."

Kyle waved his hand and said, "It's okay. I don't need this book right now. You can read it anyway."

Harry thanked him again and then he and Ron returned to the castle.

After they left, Kyle turned to look at Fred and George next to him and asked in confusion: "What happened to you?"

Ron took the initiative to greet them as soon as they met, but the twins acted as if they didn't hear him and didn't even turn their heads.

This is a bit abnormal.

Although Fred and George enjoyed teasing their little brother, they never ignored him and would at least say a few perfunctory words to him.

"Nothing, I just simply don't want to talk to him." Fred sighed.

"We used to think Ron was not smart, but we never thought he was so stupid."

“What do you mean…” Kyle seemed to smell the scent of melon.

George asked, "Remember the last time we met them on the fourth floor?"

Kyle nodded. Not only did he remember them, he had seen them with his own eyes.

"We have made inquiries."

Fred said, "They agreed to a wizard duel with Malfoy, so they went to the fourth floor."

"Wizard duel?" Cedric said subconsciously: "Slytherin will not easily issue a wizard duel. This sounds like a trap."

"Who says it's not?"

George shook his head and said, "Curfew time, on the fourth floor where it is most likely to be discovered, and a wizard duel... With these three things combined, even a goblin can tell it's a trap."

"But Ron actually believed it..."

"Merlin, is he really a Weasley?"

"Uh..." Cedric opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something fair for Ron, but he didn't know what to say.

After all, Charlie, Percy and the twins are all very smart. In comparison, Ron's brain is indeed not that bright.

“Even a straight hook can bite…” Fred swung the fishing rod in his hand and said, “He’s not even as good as the fish in the Black Lake!”
