Chapter 53: Hagrid's Letter
The sale of maps was undoubtedly a very successful act, the little wizards were facilitated, the professors were in a good mood because no one was late, and Kyle and the others made a small fortune, so to speak, and everyone was happy.
If there's anyone upset, it's Filch.
When Fred and George had plenty of money, the hallways often smelled of big dung.
Filch was almost mad, and he wanted to follow the twins all day long in order to catch one of them.
But Fred and George always found an opportunity to get rid of him.
Cho and Connor are also familiar with Kyle because of this incident, especially Connor, who no longer sits away from Kyle during class now.
Maybe I'm used to it, her social fear is not as serious as before, at least after getting the professor's extra points, she can also calmly reply like everyone else.
Hogwarts is still very relaxed in the first year of the course, with only three classes a day under normal circumstances.
But if you count the homework, it's a different story.
The young wizards had to spend all their free time in the library to barely finish their homework that was several feet long.
And the font can't be too big, because the last one to do this was not only deducted five points by Professor McGonagall, but also doubled the amount of homework, causing him to have dark circles under his eyes for a long time.
In the end, it was Professor McGonagall's fear that he would be in the classroom one day, and the punishment was lifted.
But since then, no one has dared to play such a trick again.
But there are exceptions.
What would seem like a nightmare to others is not too easy for Kyle.
Isn't it just a thesis, he has experience in this matter, and the freshman didn't say anything about the duplicate check rate, so he didn't want to write how to write.
Borrow some from a few related books, add some dispensable sentences by yourself, and then make a summary.
In less than twenty minutes, a perfect assignment was born, and the professor praised him for his rich reading.
With the exception of a certain Potions professor who did not want to be named.
For some reason, Kyle always felt that Snape was getting more and more unpleasant to look at him, and from time to time he would find a reason to deduct two points from him.
But Kyle can't do much about it, so he can only avoid Snape as much as possible, and after each point deduction, he buys a bottle of Potter's Quick-Smooth shampoo, and plans to give it to him anonymously when he has saved up enough of a case.
On Halloween, Kyle sat in the library reading as usual, and it wasn't until the dinner party was about to start that he came to Mrs. Pince with the unfinished copy of The Great Master of Duels.
"Borrow it for a few days this time." Mrs. Pince asked without looking up.
"One day."
"Hmm."
Since Kyle would come to borrow books every three days, Mrs. Pince was quite impressed with him, and she was done with a brief note of his name and time.
Since it was Halloween, the auditorium was filled with colorful decorations earlier.
Pumpkins carved into various shapes float above the auditorium, filling the Halloween atmosphere directly.
A thousand bats fluttered across the walls and ceiling, and even a large bat cloud hovered above the dining table.
It wasn't dinner yet, and the whole hall was noisy, with almost half of the hall gathered around the Gryffindor table.
Fred and George each wore a pumpkin head, and there imitated the headless hunter club's signature move, causing the crowd to laugh.
The professors on the stage didn't stop them, as they watched them with the same relish, and Dumbledore happily pulled out candy and wanted to exchange it with the other professors.
It's a pity that no one paid attention to him.
Even Professor Sprout, who had the best temper, politely declined the cockroach pile he handed over.
"You're going to the library again?"
As Kyle sat down at the Hufflepuff table, Cedric leaned over and asked, "Duel books...... You see what this does. ”
"Charms homework."
Kyle handed the book to Cedric and said, "I'll have to add up the points deducted from Potions class, the practical application of basic spells, but Professor Flitwick likes to see it the most." ”
Cedric also knew about Kyle's recent crazy targeting by Snape, and looked at him sympathetically and said, "Did you get anything to gain?" ”
"Don't mention it."
Kyle sighed, "Obviously, no wizard would use a lockpicking charm during a duel. ”
Cedric pursed his lips tightly so that he didn't laugh out loud on the spot, he had thought Kyle had been a levitation charm in his last lesson, but it turned out to be a lock-picking charm.
Not to mention the dueling master, even if it is a first-year freshman fighting, he will not use the lock picking charm.
Thinking of this, his mouth pursed even tighter.
Kyle gave Cedric a suspicious look, and his instinct told him that the other party must be thinking of something impolite. But before he could say anything, an owl landed beside him.
It reached out its paw and placed a note on the plate in front of Kyle.
"For me?"
Kyle curiously opens the note, the handwriting on it is very sloppy, but thankfully recognizable.
Dear Kyle Chopper,
I've collected some Lunar Worm Fertilizer, if you have time, can you come over on a Friday (I remember you didn't have a class that afternoon).
Hagrid.
After reading the contents of the note, Kyle was visibly stunned, he never expected Hagrid to take the initiative to invite him to the cabin.
Seeing Kyle holding the note in a daze, Cedric, who had already finished laughing secretly, asked curiously, "Who gave you the letter?" ”
"Hagrid." Kyle said.
Cedric thought for a moment and asked, "Is that the key keeper on the edge of the Forbidden Forest?" ”
"Well, that's right." Kyle replied.
"What is he looking for, you knew each other before?"
"The letter said that it had collected some fertilizer from the Moon Worm." Kyle explains, "I planted two ornamental plants before and went to him once. ”
"Can you take me with you when you go?" Cedric said: "I'm quite curious about it. ”
"If you want to go, you can go, what's here."
Kyle took out the quill he had with him and wrote on the back of the note, "Okay, I'll be over with my friend tomorrow afternoon." ”
He fed the owl some more nuts and let it fly back.
After that, the dinner party also just began.
Because it's Halloween, the food is much richer than usual, with pumpkin pie and caramel apples in addition to a whole fragrant roasted beef shank.
All kinds of candy are also essential, Kyle glances at it, glad there are no cockroach piles in it, and it seems that the principal's unique hobby has not spread to the kitchen.
