Chapter 788 Three versus one
The next morning, as soon as Albert entered the auditorium, he felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere around him. There was a smell of gunpowder everywhere, like a powder keg that was about to explode when poked.
Albert quickly found Isobel’s seat, then decisively took the plate and walked away, sitting next to his girlfriend.
"What, are you planning to transfer to Ravenclaw House?" Penello smiled and joked after seeing Albert running over, "I think everyone will definitely welcome your transfer."
"The smell of gunpowder over there is too strong. Is it necessary to do this to play a ball? It makes my appetite worse." Albert ignored Penello's words and ate from his plate. food, and said with malice: "Let's just fight in the auditorium. If the other side loses, even if they lose today's game, the two sides will probably fight on the court after the game starts anyway."
“I thought you would support the Gryffindor team?” Penello asked with a smile.
“Of course I support them.”
It’s just that this doesn’t sound very sincere.
“The Slytherin players are in much better shape than the Gryffindor players, and there are three girls in your team, so they won’t have an advantage in a fight.” Penello reminded with a smile.
“What you said makes sense.”
Albert put down his fork and turned to look in the direction of the Slytherin team. If the two sides fought, Gryffindor would really not be able to win.
Penello didn’t expect that Albert actually agreed with what he said. He was stunned for a moment and couldn’t help but laugh.
"How are you doing there? Do you want to go watch the Quidditch World Cup together during the summer vacation?" After Albert finished the food on his plate, he turned to look at Isobel who had also finished eating.
"The hospital is always busy, and mom may not be free." Isobel took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth, then said to Albert, "I should take you and Katrina to the Quidditch World Cup then. ."
"How about just the two of us!" Albert joked, "Just say I only got two World Cup tickets."
"Who said it was just the two of us." Isobel naturally understood what Albert meant and said with a strange expression, "Not long ago, Kathleen asked me if I wanted to go to the Quidditch World Cup. I have already agreed. We’ll go together then, haven’t they mentioned it to you?”
“When did you get to know each other well enough to go to the Quidditch World Cup together?” Albert asked warily, when did these two guys get along.
"Valeria will also go together. She has already planned to open a beauty shop with Kathleen after graduation." Isobel continued, "We agreed to meet there and talk about beauty potions. There seems to be new progress on their side."
Although Albert is not very involved in the research and development of beauty potions, the three of them never forget to bring him along when they talk about beauty potions. They all know that Albert's level can help them advance their beauty treatments faster. Pharmacy research.
Girls only have a few years of youth, so the sooner the medicine can be developed, the better.
"Are you really researching beauty potions that can make people beautiful?" Penello couldn't help but widen his eyes. For girls, keeping themselves beautiful is almost something they can't refuse.
"It's not that magical. At most, it's something that can eliminate acne, eliminate freckles, and keep the skin soft and smooth." Isobel thought for a while and then said, "Actually, using cosmetics is not good for the skin. Those who use cosmetics for a long time It is more likely to age, and we are also considering this aspect of development in the past.”
“No wonder I don’t even see you using cosmetics.” Penello couldn’t help but widen his eyes.
“Because I said that if you use too much cosmetics, you will get older easily.” Albert said with a smile.
“Fortunately, I don’t often wear makeup.” Penello said jokingly, “If you need help opening a beauty shop, remember to contact me. Just give me an inside price...”
A round of warm applause interrupted the two people's words. Albert turned around and saw that the Gryffindor team had just entered the auditorium and received a warm welcome. Not only Gryffindor, but also Ravenclaw and Hermione. The people at Chipachi's table were also applauding them.
Of course, the boos from the Slytherin side were inevitable, but their boos were all drowned out by the applause.
"Do you think Gryffindor will win? Last night, many Ravenclaw students placed bets on Slytherin, saying they were betting that you would win and win the final championship trophy." Pene Luo seemed to remember something and suddenly said, "They said you said Gryffindor would win, and you have never lost in gambling."
“Did I say that?” Albert raised his hand and pointed at himself in astonishment.
"right."
“Does everyone believe it?” The corner of Albert’s mouth twitched slightly, feeling incredible, “Aren’t you afraid that the Slytherin students will cheat on you?”
"Don't be afraid, Kenneth has also dragged Hufflepuff into the water." Truman appeared out of nowhere, "If Slytherin loses the bet and is still unwilling to pay, then they have offended three houses at the same time. Most of the students.”
“This is a cruel move.” Albert finally understood why Kenneth was not worried about Slytherin defaulting on his debt.
Truman suddenly asked, "You didn't actually place the bet, right?"
“What’s wrong?” Albert asked doubtfully.
“That **** really fooled everyone.”
"Don't say that. As long as he can get his money back, Albert will definitely be willing to bet." In Kenneth's opinion, he is basically a sure winner this time. As long as he drags the students from the other two colleges into the water, he won't be afraid. Slytherin won't pay if he loses. "
The reason why Albert didn't want to bet was more because he was worried about Slytherin's default. If he won the bet, it would be disgusting if he didn't get the money in the end.
As for Slytherin, they have already agreed because of their reputation. After all, if they win, they will get a lot of money, and the probability of Gryffindor winning the final game is actually not high.
Looking at Kenneth's leaving back, Albert wondered whether this guy would be stripped naked that day, or his head would be pushed into the toilet.
I don’t know if it was related to the bet on the Gryffindor team, but the voices supporting the Gryffindor team to win became louder and louder. Albert even saw a scarlet shirt with the Gryffindor lion printed on it on the court. A flag with the words "Gryffindor Must Win" written on it.
“This rose is for you.”
Percy distributed a scarlet rose to Albert, which was regarded as a red ornament symbolizing Gryffindor.
“Next time, get a roaring lion head badge?”
Albert took out his notes and jotted them down briefly. He believed that Fred and George could handle the badge issue by themselves.
The Slytherin side is similar to Gryffindor. The only difference is probably that Professor Snape sits in the front row and wears the green ornament that symbolizes Slytherin like everyone else.
The dean takes the lead in supporting his own team?
"Gryffindor should win!" Percy and Penelope sat next to Albert. As for Truman, this guy was dealing with the bet with Kenneth.
“How much did you press?” Albert asked Percy.
“One Galleung?”
"what about you?"
“I don’t like gambling very much.” Isobel motioned to Albert to look at the court, and the Quidditch match was about to start.
