Chapter 103 Take the Blame!
At this time, Green also put down the French fries in his hand, put his face in front of Wentworth's with a strange smile and said:
"Wentworth, how much did you pay this reporter? Let him speak so hard to you? If there is not only one Wentworth in the first grade, I wonder if the newspaper is talking about you!"
Cedric was on the other side, pushing Green away, and said with some dissatisfaction:
"Hey, Green, how could Wentworth do such a thing! By the way, which newspaper is that?"
Since everyone's eyes were focused on Wentworth at this time, many people also looked at the Weasley brothers curiously when they heard Cedric beside Wentworth say this.
Seeing that Fred Weasley had obviously just thought of this, he quickly flipped through the newspaper again, and after a while, he said with a strange expression:
"It's The Quibbler!"
Hearing Fred Weasley's words, the number of Hogwarts students around him instantly decreased by half, and many of them murmured:
"It turned out to be The Quibbler, no wonder!"
Most of the remaining students are only curious about the article itself. After all, it is rare for a classmate around them to be published in a newspaper!
However, the vast majority of students, when they learned that this report came from The Quibbler, thought it was the usual exaggerated style of The Quibbler. Moreover, the Quibbler and the Daily Prophet did not deal with it. It's not a day or two.
Apparently, everyone took the article's coverage of Wentworth as a tool for the rivalry between The Quibbler and the Daily Prophet.
However, not everyone seems to be indifferent. Although this report comes from "The Quibbler", after all, it is a newspaper with a certain reputation in the wizarding world, but it praises Wentworth so much on it. Many were jealous with envy.
"Hey, Green, the newspaper said that it was Wentworth who led Hufflepuff to defeat us Slytherin. I'd like to know, as a Hufflepuff prefect, how do you feel about this? "
At this time, Marcus Flint, the Seeker of the Slytherin College Quidditch team, came over and asked with a strange smile.
Hearing Marcus Flint's provocative words, Wentworth and Cedric's expressions changed at the same time, but at this moment, Green slapped Marcus Flynt in front of him. yawned, and then said boredly:
"What do I think? I see with my eyes! What? You think I should be furious? Are you kidding me! I wish Hufflepuff would have a few more Wentworths, so that I, a prefect, would be more relaxed! By the way I can crush you Slytherins again!"
Hearing Green's answer, Marcus Flint suddenly blushed, and said angrily:
"Take us Slytherin? Just dream! Don't think that you Hufflepuffs are rogues, and you beat us once, and you are so good! This weekend's Quidditch match, I will let you know that we are Slytherins It's amazing!"
Hearing Marcus Flint's provocation, Green said nonchalantly:
"It really scared me to death! How about we make a bet?"
When Green said that he wanted to make a bet, Marcus Flint couldn't help but froze. The guy who made the bet between Slytherin and Green before was none other than the former Slytherin prefect! As a result, he became a former prefect.
Marcus Flint took a step back subconsciously, and then said hastily:
"I'm too lazy to talk to you, we'll see you tomorrow on the Quidditch pitch!"
After speaking, Marcus Flint turned and left in a panic.
Seeing that Marcus Flint turned and left without saying a word, Green raised his head and said:
"This kid is smart and runs fast! Wentworth, I know that you brought back a brand-new firebolt from the Quidditch World Cup finals,
Among other things, just this flying broomstick, you are far ahead of Slytherin! See you tomorrow! "
After finishing speaking, Green patted Wentworth on the shoulder heavily as a sign of encouragement.
But Wentworth responded blankly:
"Senior Green, it's too early to pat you on the shoulder! It's better not to place all your hopes on me!"
Hearing Wentworth's words, both Green and Cedric showed surprised expressions, and Cedric said quickly:
"What's the matter, Wentworth? It's not your broom that's gone?"
Wentworth shook his head, but before Cedric and Green could breathe a sigh of relief, Wentworth continued:
"That broomstick, I plan to give it to someone as a Christmas present in the future, I don't plan to use it myself!"
Hearing Wentworth's answer, Cedric asked with anticipation and excitement:
"Are you going to give it to me? This, will it be too expensive?"
And Wentworth looked at Cedric, said "hehe" twice, breaking Cedric's fantasy.
On the other side, Green patted his chest with his hands again and again, with a frightened expression, and kept saying:
"It's okay, it's okay, it's a good thing Marcus didn't agree to bet with me! By the way, Wentworth, what did you just say?"
Hearing Green's inquiry, Wentworth said with some doubts:
"I just said, I plan to give that broomstick as a Christmas present in the future, and I don't plan to use it myself!"
Green shook his head and said:
"I didn't say this sentence, I said the last sentence!"
Wentworth recalled a moment, and tentatively said:
"I said, Senior Green, it's too early to pat you on the shoulder! It's better not to place all your hopes on me!"
After hearing Wentworth finish speaking, Green patted Wentworth on the shoulder again, and then said earnestly:
"Wentworth, you are thinking too much. As a senior, prefect and captain, how can I put all my hopes on you! I patted you on the shoulder to tell you, honestly put the blame on me. Back it up!"
Wentworth and Cedric: …
While the three of them were still joking in the Hogwarts auditorium, Marcus Flint, who had left the auditorium earlier, returned to his dormitory, and then sneaked out of his locker , carefully took out a package.
After opening, there was a letter and a bottle inside the package, which was filled with potions.
Marcus Flint looked at the potion in front of him, his breathing became a little heavy, and his face turned red.
But at this moment, Marcus Flint seemed extremely excited.
I saw Marcus Flint in the empty dormitory, holding the bottle of medicine machine in his hand, and said confidently:
"This weekend's competition, I must be the winner! I want to show you who is the best student at Hogwarts!"
If Wentworth was here, he might be able to recognize that the potion Marcus Flint was holding was very similar to the Potion of Felicity that Snape had given him back then.
