“Go for it! Zhang Qiu! You’re definitely the best!”
On the lawn, Zhang Dong was still cheering for Zhang Qiu. In fact, Zhang Dong himself didn't expect that Zhang Qiu would actually join the Ravenclaw team a year earlier than in the original story.
And it looked like she was adapting quite well.
After finishing the training, Zhang Qiu jumped down from the broomstick and looked at Zhang Dong in front of her. Zhang Qiu also smiled at him and said, "How is it, little brother, how's my flying?"
“I’ve always had a question, how do you fly on those broomsticks without your butt getting sore?”
Zhang Qiu………
I asked you about my flying, you asked if my butt was sore?
If it hadn't been Zhang Dong who said this, Zhang Qiu really wanted to pull out her wand and give him a good zap right now.
But Zhang Qiu thought for a moment and still nodded silently, "It's not really comfortable."
Flying on a broomstick, it's not possible for it to be comfortable, right? It's fine when you're on the ground, because your support comes from your legs. But once you're up in the air, under the effect of gravity, the weight of your body is all on the broomstick. It would be strange if it was actually comfortable.
“Why don’t you try putting a seat on the wand?” Zhang Dong thought about it and came up with what he thought was a good suggestion, only to be met with Zhang Qiu's beautiful glare.
“What are you thinking about, Seeker's need to be light and fast, adding a seat will slow you down. Besides, why would you even come up with that? Alright, go back to your dorm, I'm going back to Ravenclaw for a shower, I won’t be able to bring you back to the dorms.”
“Ok, bye then.” Zhang Dong bid farewell to Zhang Qiu directly, and left without hesitation.
Looking at Zhang Dong's back, Zhang Qiu was even more speechless. You tell the girl to go back, she just goes back, doesn't she even know how to see someone off?
Sigh, it's a headache.
Zhang Dong, of course, understood what Zhang Qiu meant, but for him right now, he had something much more important to do.
“Room of Requirement, how do I enter again?”
Zhang Dong silently came to the eighth floor of Hogwarts and started searching. Hogwarts is huge, and because of magic, everything nearby is constantly changing, so, not only is it difficult if you only know the general location, even getting back to the dorms, if the timing is wrong, you might even get lost.
"Finally found it."
After searching for a long time, Zhang Dong finally found his target, in front of a tapestry depicting a troll beating up a hapless Barnabus.
Zhang Dong came to the opposite side of the tapestry, carefully thinking about the private space in his mind, and then walked back and forth three times, and finally, a door appeared on the originally smooth wall in front of him.
Zhang Dong smiled, he gently pushed open the door and walked in, and what appeared before him was a room full of clutter, it looked like a giant warehouse.
“This isn’t the private space I wanted.”
Zhang Dong strolled through the Room of Requirement, and following the direction he remembered, he finally came to an antique table, lifted the ball of twine on top of the table, and a simple box appeared in front of Zhang Dong.
Zhang Dong gently opened the box, and a crown inlaid with a gemstone the size of a pigeon egg was lying quietly inside.
“Ravenclaw's Diadem? It is indeed beautiful.”
Zhang Dong picked up the box.
Ravenclaw's Diadem, legend has it that wearing it is enough to gain Ravenclaw's wisdom, unfortunately, it was made into a Horcrux by the crazy guy Tom Riddle.
After Tom Riddle came to Hogwarts, he learned the location of the Diadem from the ghost of Helena Ravenclaw and made it into his fifth Horcrux, and then directly hid it in the Room of Requirement.
He didn't even put any protective enchantments on it, because he thought that the Room of Requirement's existence was only known to him.
This was indeed the case, even Dumbledore at the time did not know how to enter the Room of Requirement, but unfortunately, Tom had never expected that there would be a time traveler like Zhang Dong in this world.
“Stupefy!”
Zhang Dong unceremoniously fired a Stupefy spell! However, in the face of Zhang Dong's Stupefy, which was powerful enough to destroy a wall, the Diadem remained undamaged.
“Sigh, looks like I’ll have to wait until I get the Gryffindor Sword, or learn the Fire Curse before I can try again.”
Zhang Dong was confident that in less than seven years, he would have the power to destroy Horcruxes!
“Alright, let's get this place to turn into a training room. Compared to a warehouse, I need a target to help me get used to my new power.”
Then, a series of dummies appeared.
Looking at the dummies that could run and jump, a smile spread across Zhang Dong's face.
“Petrificus Totalus!”
“Expelliarmus!”
“Stupefy!”
All sorts of magic lights flashed in this little room. Knowing spells and being able to hit your target are two different concepts. After all, not everyone is like the three Malfoys, who only know how to stand there and wait for Zhang Dong's spells to land on them.
Sometimes, learning how to hit a moving target is more important than mastering all sorts of spells.
