Chapter 61: Conflict

When Kyle came out of the Headmaster's office, in addition to the Magic Suppressing potion, there was an extra feather in his hand.

A phoenix tail feather that was still warm.

When Fawkes saw that Kyle was about to leave, it plucked a feather out and gave it to him.

By exchanging an aconite leaf for a phoenix tail feather, not only did Kyle not suffer a loss, but he also made a profit.

What a generous phoenix.

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

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 were still cursing:

"Slytherin, shameless scum."

"Rude behavior, dirty methods, 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. It looked very painful.

Kyle saw this and followed quickly.

It was not difficult to guess from the conversation between the little badgers that Cedric was injured, and it was caused by the Slytherin players.

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 field?"

Ryan was startled. He turned around and said in surprise: "Kyle... where were you just now, and why are you only here now?"

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

When mentioning this, Ryan's face turned red with anger, "Don't you know those shameless guys from Slytherin? You don't know, Cedric almost caught the snitch at that time and we were just a little bit away from winning...

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

"That's right." Mikel said equally angrily: "Do you know what his reason was? This shameless guy actually told Mrs. Hooch that he used Cedric's head as a Quaffle!

This rude idiot, an underdeveloped gorilla, is not worthy of participating in this kind of event. He should be sent off the field!"

"This is not football, Mikel." Ryan reminded: "In Quidditch, you can't send people off..."

Mikel frowned and said: "But they can't just give Hufflepuff a free kick. This is so unfair!"

With Ryan and Mikel's explanations, Kyle quickly understood what was going on.

Just like he thought before.

When he realized that he couldn't win under normal circumstances, he resorted to underhand methods. This was very Slytherin-like.

Soon, the group arrived at the school hospital.

"Merlin's beard, what happened!"

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

"Every year, there will be students sent here. Every year..."

Madam Pomfrey took a second to reattach Cedric's broken leg and then shooed everyone out.

However, Kyle was asked to stay behind.

The newly reattached bones couldn't move yet, so Cedric now needed someone to take care of him. There were other patients in the school hospital, and Madam Pomfrey had her hands full.

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

As the door closed, she continued to smack her lips, complaining that the sport was too dangerous and the teachers were too incompetent.

Kyle sat beside the hospital 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 abilities were of course unquestionable. If Cedric had broken his arm instead of his leg, he would probably be discharged from the school hospital right now.

"It's a pity when the game was almost over, we were ahead by 30 points."

Cedric leaned back on the pillow and sighed in frustration, "I wish I had paid more attention to what was going on around me."

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

"That's right." Cedric scratched his hair with some distress, "What about the future games?"

Hufflepuff and Slytherin had more than one match. Under normal circumstances, they would meet at least three more times.

Cedric didn't want to be hospitalized a third time.

"It doesn't matter." Kyle thought for a moment and then said, "You take good care of yourself 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? Is it the Beater?"

"You're thinking too much." Kyle curled his lips and said, "Now that the matches have already begun, unless a player takes the initiative to quit, it will be impossible for me to join the team even if I wanted to."

The rules of Hogwarts Quidditch were very clear. Each house has only one opportunity to recruit new students, and it is only in the second week after the start of school.

However, under normal circumstances, the captains of each house would select the good players at the end of the first week. They would then wait until the end of the second week to report the names to Mrs. Hooch.

In this way, the new players would have three more opportunities to train together. Moreover, the professors would not care about such trivial matters.

But after the second week, Mrs. Hooch would no longer agree to add new players, unless someone was quitting and the team was lacking players.

However, this kind of situation usually did not happen because quitting was not that simple.

Mrs. Hooch would only allow team changes midway if there were reasons such as transferring to another school, dropping out of school, or being unable to play Quidditch due to physical reasons.

Otherwise, there was no need to talk about it.

Mrs. Hooch was very firm on this point.

"Then why did you say I should leave it to you...wait, you are not going to cause trouble for Slytherin, right?"

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

Also, you are only in the first year now. The Slytherin players are basically in the third year or above. They can't wait for you to find trouble with them.

Moreover, Professor Snape won't..."

"Well, please stop for a moment."

Seeing that Cedric's words were getting more and more outrageous, Kyle quickly interrupted him, raised his eyebrows, and said: "What first and third graders? Don't tell me you think that I'm going to fight with them, do you?"

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

"You wish." Kyle gave him a disgusted look, "I think it is necessary to ask Madam Pomfrey to come over again to help you check your brain."
