Chapter 26: Ratton

The next morning, Kyle is forced to get out of his bed early.

Because the curtains were not drawn last night, the sunlight shone through the round window of the dormitory like a searchlight in his face.

Who can sleep on this?

Kyle reluctantly gets dressed and stretches his back to the window.

Since Hogwarts Castle is located on a flat location, it is actually sunny and sunny, although it is an underground part of the castle building. Through the round windows of the dormitory, you can also see the grass and dandelions shaking outside the window.

Kyle glanced at his two sleeping roommates, and opened the window to the maximum with a blank expression.

The O.W.L.S exam is still five years away, how can they sleep at this age?

And it's half past seven now, rounded up to eight fifty, and it's not even a few minutes before nine o'clock class.

After all, this is their first class after entering Hogwarts, and they always have to make a good impression on the professors, and it is not good if they are late.

And that morning breeze with mist is undoubtedly the best alarm clock.

"I'm so sweet." Kyle nodded in satisfaction.

He really wanted them to wake up early with him for the sake of his roommates, he couldn't do that with a Hufflepuff.

After a brief wash, Kyle exits the dorm through the hallway of the common room.

As we all know, the stairs of Hogwarts are very individual, they seem to have their own consciousness, and they can always change their original direction when the young wizards are most anxious, and then silently enjoy the desperate wails of the unlucky ones.

Kyle was ready to go around a few laps, but I don't know if it was because he had plenty of time right now, or because he didn't have time to go to work on the stairs at this time.

He walked all the way from the lounge to the auditorium, and the stairs had not changed once, and the whole time it was very quiet.

This disappointed Kyle a bit, and to be honest, he actually wanted to give it a try.

Although it was not yet eight o'clock, there were already quite a few people in the auditorium, especially the Ravenclaw table, which was almost full, and there were a few senior students sitting here and there in other houses.

Hufflepuff only...... Just Kyle.

As soon as he sat down, a steaming breakfast appeared on the plate in front of him.

A glass of milk, two sausages, and a loaf of bread.

It's not rich, but it's also very good, and if it's not enough, you can add more.

Kyle ate his breakfast slowly, and in a short time, two familiar figures walked into the auditorium, one after the other.

"Hey Kyle, why are you up so early?" Mikel and Ryan walked briskly.

"I don't want to either, I was going to sleep well, but the windows of the dormitory are open, and the wind blows in too cold, so I can't sleep." Kyle cut a piece of sausage into his mouth and said, "What about you, why do you get up so early?" ”

"So do we." Mikel said with a bitter face: "I thought it was the window you opened?" ”

"The window was open when I left."

Kyle bites the words "when you're leaving" very hard.

"Well, it should have been blown away by the wind." Mikel picked up the bread and took a big bite: "But that's fine, I didn't fall asleep until the wee hours of the morning last night, and if the window wasn't open, I wouldn't have gotten up before nine o'clock."

If you're late for the first class...... I don't even dare to think that there will be any consequences, and I will definitely be expelled. ”

Next to him, Ryan nodded approvingly.

Although he got up at eight o'clock when he was home, it was the result of his mother forcibly pulling him out of bed.

If he really sleeps until he wakes up naturally, it is estimated that he will be able to catch up with the first class.

Kyle laughed and said, "Then you really want to thank the nice guy who helped open the window." ”

"yes."

The sleepy-eyed two of them were eating breakfast, and neither of them noticed anything wrong with Kyle's words.

Mikel even chimed in: "It really helps." ”

At this time, Kyle also drank the last sip of milk, got up and said, "You go ahead and eat, I'll go shopping somewhere else." ”

"Okay." The two said in unison,

……

Saying goodbye to his roommate, who was obsessed with dry meals, Kyle made a beeline for the castle gates.

It's only past eight o'clock, and it's still early for class, so Kyle decides to solve the pet problem first.

There was already a cat and a toad in the dormitory, and he couldn't seem out of place.

Walking out of the castle gates, Kyle expertly raised his arms.

For a moment, seven or eight owls swarmed from all directions and landed neatly on the stone steps in front of him.

"It's not a letter delivery this time." Kyle looked at them and said, "I'm going to be at Hogwarts for a long time, and I'm hoping to hire one of you as my own messenger.

Words in return...... All-inclusive meals, at least one packet of owl nuts per day, at least three packets of Motra jerky per week, and one bottle of owl tonic per month...... That's all for now, if you need more.

In addition, even after I graduated, these conditions were still valid until it could no longer lift its wings.

Well, if any of you want to, fly over my shoulder. ”

It has nothing to do with Kyle's family talent.

As messengers dedicated to the wizarding world, owls have a natural affinity for magic, and with a little training, they can understand wizards.

And Hogwarts is the best in the industry in this regard.

Even though Kyle's words were a bit complicated for them, they could understand them with a few body movements.

In less than a second, the owls scrambled towards Kyle's shoulder.

Some of them even flew slowly, and directly attacked the owl in front of them.

For a moment, there was a mess around, and there were scattered feathers everywhere.

Kyle scratched his head with a smile and tried to stop it, but it was too late, because this situation was no longer something he could persuade in a few words.

Fortunately, this situation did not last long.

A brown fishing owl took advantage of its size and easily defeated the other competitors, standing firmly on Kyle's shoulder as the victor.

Kyle recognizes the owl.

Probably three years ago, when Chris found it, it was covered in wounds and dying at the entrance to the Ministry of Magic's reception desk, clutching an undelivered letter in its claws.

Because it was discovered in time, Chris immediately treated it, and took it home and took care of it carefully for more than half a month, and finally brought it back to life.

Despite this, it has a long, narrow scar on its face.

This scar is caused by dark magic and is very difficult to remove, neither Chris nor Newt can do it, and they can't even hide their feathers.

Compared to other owls, this makes it look unusual...... Ugly.

But Kyle didn't care, he scratched the feathers on the brown owl's neck and smiled, "Hello, Ratton." ”

The other man tilted his head and rubbed his beak against Kyle's fingers.

Raton is the nickname Kyle gave it back then.

Since he didn't know its name at first, Kyle just wanted it to be more convenient when feeding.

I didn't expect it to admit it in the end.

When Hagrid got the news to pick him up, he shouted "Saipan, Saipan" in the nearby woods for more than half an hour, but he didn't react at all.

It wasn't until Kyle whispered a raton from the side that it flew out unhurriedly.

Hagrid was stupid at the time, and he didn't slow down for a long time. It felt like the girl he had worked so hard to raise had been abducted by Kyle.

Not to mention how much it is lost.
