Chapter 348 Mascot
Before Andrew could make any mental preparation, Norman knocked on the door of the dean's office.
"Please come in."
The Dean's voice sounded somewhat cheerful - there was no doubt that Professor Flitwick was in a good mood today.
Andrew entered the dean's office under the leadership of Norman - after seeing a bunch of people in the room, he knew that his previous guess was wrong.
All the prefects were here, as well as several familiar laboratory members and all the members of the Ravenclaw team. All the latter were wearing jerseys, but the tall guy Bell blended in without being conspicuous at all.
Professor Flitwick was sitting at his desk, and on the table in front of him, there was what was obviously a camera.
"You guys are here too - wait a moment, there are a few more of us."
Professor Flitwick nodded, "Andrew, come over here and do a comparison. After all, you young people know better about brooms."
‘Dean, you are overestimating me. ’
Andrew had such thoughts in his heart, but he obviously couldn't say such words-not to mention the anxious looks of his roommates and the rest of the team, he had to go through it just because the professor spoke.
It doesn't matter whether you understand or not, the key is attitude - anyway, it is a reference, not his final decision.
On the edge of the desk was a table detailing the brooms on the market and their prices - Andrew noticed that most of the brooms had obvious discounts, but he didn't know how they came about.
‘The Comet series is really cheap...’
This was Andrew's first feeling - now he could understand what Kevin was saying.
‘Nimbus is not on sale? ’
Andrew once again confirmed the gadget he saw, and directly eliminated this expensive and useful gadget together with the choices above.
He doesn't understand anyway, but he understands after looking at the price for a while.
The plan is very clear - all members sweep Seven Stars, a high-quality and low-priced broom that is comparable to Nimbus 2000, plus the Seeker has a Comet 260, which is said to be comparable to Nimbus 2001.
'It's almost time. ’
“I think this is the perfect thing without more money.”
Andrew agreed—or he couldn't agree more.
Oh my god, brooms are really expensive! All these things combined are enough for the college to change sleeping bags twice!
Professor McGonagall just gave him a broom and went out, but these brooms were all meant to go through the tents in the courtyard!
"That's good. Although there is still some financial pressure, fortunately we have support on the brooms this semester. We don't have to save the batter's brooms. We can just replace them all."
Professor Flitwick picked up the list that Andrew had confirmed, "But the team must also train well - this sponsorship was donated by the graduates who love Quidditch. The academic development in the hospital last year was very good, but Quidditch Diqi’s performance is a little worse, so they are very concerned about it.”
‘I see, after all, the college’s treasury still relies on donations. ’
Andrew finally understood why he was so generous this time - although he didn't know the stratification of the Quidditch team, he was definitely treated differently.
In fact, the Seeker is on the front line because he has to keep an eye on the Snitch.
Goalkeepers are the broom needs of the second line - the faster the broom, the more stable the goalkeeping.
The third line is the chaser, and skills can make up for some shortcomings. As for batters, broomsticks are generally the worst because they have to deal with Bludgers.
Andrew clearly saw the happy expressions on the faces of two people on the team. There was no doubt that these two people were the unlucky ones who had not been given up.
"That's it. The selection will be held this week or next week. Our seekers have graduated. We must be the first to be selected and adapt to high-speed flying as soon as possible."
Professor Flitwick put the order away, "I will order the broom as soon as possible, but now I need to take a photo and send it to be attached to the thank you letter. In addition, you all sign the thank you letter for me."
The next step was to take photos and sign autographs - it didn't take long to do, after all, the dean was there.
"Thank you for your contribution to the academy," Professor Flitwick said happily, "Andrew will stay for a while, everyone can do their own thing."
ah?
Andrew was stunned for a moment, but the others soon left chatting and laughing - Quidditch is the number one sport, and few people don't like it. For such a big matter as changing brooms in one's own academy, everyone will have to talk about it for at least a week. Bar?
"It's great, so energetic."
Professor Flitwick watched them leave with a smile, "Sit down, Andrew."
Andrew sat on the chair opposite, making a listening gesture.
The professor must have had something to do when he left him alone - and he just happened to know something important happened today.
"Preview the courses for this semester. I don't want you to relax too much."
To Andrew's expectation, the professor actually asked him about his studies.
"Well, I've probably finished previewing half of the homework."
The professor nodded, obviously satisfied with Andrew's answer.
"Very good rhythm, what about your understanding of lower grade spells?"
"It's still a work in progress, Professor," Andrew positioned himself carefully. "It's still not possible to simplify the spells, but the first-year spells can be used quite smoothly, but they are still not consistent enough - I always feel that they can Connect.”
"Absolutely, but everyone's rhythm and adaptability are different," Professor Flitwick's smile grew wider, "You work harder than I thought, very good, Andrew, keep up the good work."
< br>
"I'll keep an eye out, Professor."
"Also, don't study with the goal of studying or improving some spells this semester. Although the risk of learning spells is not that high, it is still easy to get hurt if you are eager for quick success."
The professor instructed as he began to write a list of recommended books on the parchment, "Don't blindly pursue the power of spells. In addition, the two books in the forbidden book area may be helpful to you, but don't experiment with the black magic above. ”
"I will read carefully, Professor."
"There is also a Time-Turner. Don't fill it up just because you are pursuing the full use of time. It's not for you." Professor Flitwick pushed the book list over. "I've signed it, and you can read it to Mrs. Pince." Take it.”
The professor's expression was serious, "Also, I'm afraid you will have to come to my office a few times this semester."
Um?
Before Andrew could figure out why, the professor smiled and said, "There were too many things that happened last semester, and you probably can't imagine how amazing the development will be. I know a little bit about it - although breakthroughs are based on inspiration and hard work, Luck is also essential.”
ah? ? ?
‘Am I being treated as a mascot? ’
Andrew was stunned for a moment, but he could only smile and say goodbye to the professor.
