Chapter 130 The Belonging of the Academy Cup
After the tense final exams, Hogwarts entered into carnival time again, within a week before the results were announced.
All students can enjoy this week of happy time, no homework, no classes, and no college marks will be deducted.
This is the time for students, you can go to the cafeteria to eat all you want, or go shopping in Hogsmeade village with a few good friends.
Or some lovers, you can go to the grass next to the black lake and enjoy the summer sunshine.
You can also go to some dense grass in the Forbidden Forest to feel the growth of youth.
But this good day left everyone on the second day after the exam, because Professor McGonagall saw the last semester.
Augustus’s method of publishing the answers is that it helps to increase the enthusiasm of the students, and at the same time prevents some students from getting carried away during a week of relaxation.
So Professor McGonagall announced the standard answers for the exam on the bulletin boards of the major colleges on the second day after the exam.
For a time, the entire Hogwarts castle was filled with mourning, everyone's mood for fun disappeared, and the sales of meals in the entire cafeteria fell precipitously.
A group of dejected students can be seen everywhere, among which Gryffindor and Ravenclaw have the most students.
One house is because there are too many failed students, and the other house is mainly because of the results of its own house, which may be overwhelmed by Slytherin house.
For the proud Ravenclaw, not winning the House Cup is not a big problem for them at all.
After all, a large proportion of the Academy Cup comes from the Quidditch competition. As for sports, the Kitty Hawks have always been less enthusiastic.
But if the results are surpassed by other colleges, this is absolutely unacceptable to Ravenclaw College.
As a result, many Ravenclaw students learned that their grades were not as good as those of Slytherin.
He took the initiative to find his dean, Professor Flitwick, and asked him to make up lessons for himself during this summer vacation, and strive to wash away the shame in the next semester.
Faced with this situation, Professor Flitwick of course readily agreed, and quickly communicated with Professor Snape and Professor McGonagall.
Among them, Professor Snape rejected Professor Flitwick's invitation due to his mission, but he also contributed some notes of his own to express his support for the other party's behavior.
Facing Professor Flitwick's invitation, Professor McGonagall agreed without the slightest hesitation.
A large part of the reason was that Gryffindor College's grades had historically fallen to the bottom.
Even Hufflepuff College, which has the largest number of people, is far behind Gryffindor College in terms of average score.
The reason is also very simple, that is, the students of Gryffindor College are naturally rebellious.
Seeing that most of the students have joined the Saints Association and Study Association, even knowing that this is a good thing for their own future or study.
But the brave and rebellious Gryffindors resolutely refused to join the Study Club and the Saints Club after seeing most of the students joining.
The logic of their behavior is also very simple, that is, if everyone does the same thing, even if that thing is right.
I will never get involved in it, what I have to do is to be unique.
But this behavior is not free of cost, when students from other colleges are helping each other to improve.
The students of Gryffindor College were left behind by everyone unintentionally.
So the nightmare of the students of Gryffindor College began. After the resolute Professor McGonagall informed the parents of the students about the incident.
We soon got replies from the parents, and based on this, Professor McGonagall announced it at the banquet on the day the results were announced.
"After getting permission from your parents, you have about five days to reunite with your parents."
"Then everyone will need to go back to school for 52 days of make-up lessons, now five days before the start of the new term."
"Look at the progress of each student to decide whether you can get the last five days of vacation."
As soon as this remark came out, the entire Gryffindor house mourned, and even the house cup might be taken away by Slytherin house again.
They all seemed indifferent, at the last moment of the whole banquet, Dumbledore stood up and announced loudly.
"It's the most exciting moment again, although everyone may already know the final result."
"But for some events, we still need to make separate recognitions. The first ones that need to be rewarded are the two ladies."
"Miss Granger and Miss Greengrass, with their brilliant ideas, put on our school's first collective performance."
"And with their unparalleled talents, they created that touching script."
"For their efforts, Gryffindor House and Slytherin House will each add 50 points."
As soon as this remark came out, except Gryffindor College, the other three colleges applauded enthusiastically. After all, that performance was really impressive.
After interrupting the applause with a wave of his hand, Dumbledore continued.
"During that performance, a very unfortunate incident happened. The lingering Voldemort actually invaded Hogwarts again."
"But thanks to Mr. Weasley's repentance and Mr. Dumbledore's superb magic, we once again foiled the other party's plot."
"This also declares that we don't need to be afraid of the past anymore, we can face the future bravely, so as to embark on a brand new future."
"For Mr. Weasley's sacrifice, and Mr. Dumbledore's magic, add 100 points each to Gryffindor House and Slytherin House."
Hearing this, all the colleges applauded politely. After all, in the eyes of many people, Ron just repented at the last moment of his death.
The behavior of the other party can only be regarded as washing away the shame of his family, and it is not a noble sacrifice at all.
And it is doubtful whether the other party really repented. After all, Augustus may be out of consideration for maintaining the honor of the academy.
Made up a story to make the other party's death a little more respectable.
Perhaps feeling the atmosphere present, Dumbledore announced hastily.
"Okay, at the end of this semester, we will also announce the ownership of the House Cup, and that is Slytherin House."
"Congratulations to them for winning the Academy Cup again and completing their eighth consecutive Academy Cup, but we congratulate them."
"At the same time, some changes have to be made to the decoration of the school."
After finishing speaking, Dumbledore waved his hand lightly, and the decoration of the entire auditorium immediately became the theme of Slytherin.
Green ribbons, as well as Slytherin flags, were hung all over the Great Hall, and the whole Hall became a sea of green and silver.
