A still warm phoenix tail feather.

This was what Fox pulled out and gave to Kyle when he saw him leaving.

Kyle exchanged a bluebell for a fresh phoenix tail feather. Not only did he not lose anything, he actually made a profit.

What a kind-hearted Phoenix.

After Kyle left the eighth floor, he walked quickly towards the Quidditch field.

However, when he arrived, he saw a group of little badgers carrying Cedric and running towards the school hospital in a hurry.

At the same time, they kept cursing:

"Slytherin, those shameless scums."

"Rude behavior, dirty tricks, they don't deserve to play Quidditch!"

"The Slytherin team should be disqualified!"

Cedric, who was being carried by the little badgers, was covering his head with one hand and holding his right leg with the other, with a very painful expression.

Seeing this, Kyle hurriedly followed.

It is not difficult to guess from the conversation between the badgers that Cedric was injured, and it was the Slytherin players who did it.

Kyle found Ryan and Mikel in the crowd. He walked over quickly, patted one of them on the shoulder and said, "What happened on the court?"

Ryan was startled and turned around and asked in surprise: "Kyle...where did you go just now? Why are you here just now?"

"The principal wanted to see me. I went to the principal's office." Kyle explained briefly and asked again, "Don't worry about me for now. How is Cedric?"

Speaking of this, Ryan's face turned red with anger, "It's all because of those shameless guys in Slytherin. You don't know that Cedric was almost catching the Snitch at that time. We were just one step away from winning...

As a result, the Slytherin captain took advantage of Cedric's attention being on the Snitch and punched him on the head, knocking Cedric off his broom."

"That's right." Mikel said angrily, "Do you know what his reason is? That shameless guy actually told Mrs. Hodge that he mistook Cedric's head for a Quaffle! This rude idiot, an underdeveloped gorilla, he is not worthy of participating in this kind of competition at all, he should be sent off!"

"This isn't football, Mikel," Ryan reminded, "You can't send someone off the field in a Quidditch match..."

Mikel stiffened his neck and said: "You can't just give Hufflepuff a free kick, that's too unfair!"

With Ryan and Mikel's explanations, Kyle quickly understood what had happened.

Just as he thought before.

If you find that you can't win under normal circumstances, then use dirty tricks. That's fine. That's very Slytherin.

Soon, the group arrived at the school hospital.

"Merlin's beard, what the hell happened!"

Madam Pomfrey looked very angry. "The nose bone is broken and the right leg is completely broken. I don't understand why Hogwarts would hold such a dangerous competition."

"Every year, people are sent here, every year..."

Madam Pomfrey fixed Cedric's broken leg in a second and then drove everyone out.

But Kyle was kept by her.

The newly connected bones cannot be moved for the time being, so Cedric needs someone to take care of him now. There are other patients in the school hospital, and Madam Pomfrey is definitely too busy to handle them all.

Among this group of people, Madam Pomfrey only had some impression of Kyle, so this task naturally fell on him.

Kyle sat beside the bed and poured Cedric a glass of water, "How do you feel?"

"My legs still hurt a little." Cedric moved his shoulders and said, "But it's much better now."

Madam Pomfrey's ability is of course beyond doubt. If Cedric had broken his arm instead of his leg, he would have been discharged from the hospital right away.

"It's a pity that the game was lost. We were leading by 30 points."

Cedric leaned back against the pillow and sighed in frustration, "I wish I had paid more attention to what was happening next to me."

"It's okay. This is just a game. Winning or losing is not important." Kyle comforted him. "Besides, fouling in games is a Slytherin tradition. Even if you can avoid it this time, they will come after you. If you keep avoiding them, you won't be able to catch the Golden Snitch."

"That's true." Cedric scratched his hair in annoyance, "What about the future games?"

There will be more than one match between Hufflepuff and Slytherin. Normally, they will meet at least three more times.

Cedric didn't want to be hospitalized three more times.

"It's okay." Kyle thought for a moment and said, "Just take care of your injuries and leave the rest to me."

"Are you going to join the Quidditch team?" Cedric asked in surprise, "What position are you going to play, a beater?"

"You think too much." Kyle curled his lips and said, "Now the game has started. Unless a player voluntarily withdraws, it will be impossible for me to join the team even if I want to."

The rules of Quidditch at Hogwarts clearly state that each college has only one chance to recruit new students, and only in the first two weeks of school.

However, under normal circumstances, the captains of each college would select their candidates at the end of the first week, and then report the names to Mrs. Hodges at the specified time of the second week.

This way, the new players will have three more opportunities for group training, and the professors will not bother with such trivial matters.

But after the second week, Mrs. Hodge will no longer agree to add new players, unless someone withdraws and the team is short of players.

However, this situation generally does not happen because exiting is not that simple.

Madam Hooch would only allow a team to make a substitution mid-match if there was an irresistible reason such as transferring, dropping out, or being unable to play Quidditch due to physical reasons.

Otherwise, there is no point in discussing this.

Mrs. Hodge was very resolute on this point.

"Then you said you would give it to me...wait, you are not going to cause trouble for Slytherin, are you?"

Cedric seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and said seriously, "Don't do anything that violates school rules. I just broke a leg, it's not that serious.

Besides, you are only a first-year player, and the Slytherin players are basically above the third year. They are eager for you to cause trouble for them.

And Professor Snape wouldn't..."

"Well, stop for a moment."

Seeing that Cedric was getting more and more outrageous, Kyle interrupted him and raised his eyebrows, "What first and third graders? You don't think I want to duel with them, do you?"

"Uh, isn't it?" Cedric was stunned.

"You wish." Kell gave him a look of disdain. "I think it's necessary to ask Madam Pomfrey to come over again and help you check your brain."
