After class, Kyle went to the Great Hall to grab a bite to eat and then rushed to the Quidditch pitch.

Since Slytherin had seven more light wheels in 2001, even Harris has rarely been nervous.

The broomsticks were so fast that Fred and George had secretly scouted the Slytherins, and according to them, when they flew up, they could only see seven pale green shadows whizzing through the air.

That's not good news for their Hufflepuffs.

Originally, the equipment gap between them and Slytherin could be bridged by skill and tacit cooperation...... But now that Slytherin's equipment has been upgraded, the skills of the Hufflepuff players cannot be improved in a short period of time.

There is no way, Harris can only train non-stop to find tactics that can deal with those "kryptonite bosses".

However, the idea did not go very well, but so far, the tactics he developed did not carry forward to the next day, and each time he was overturned in the middle of training, without exception.

It's the same today.

As dusk approached, Kyle returned to the castle tiredly.

After nearly a month of high-intensity study and training, he felt a little overwhelmed, his head was dizzy, and he just wanted to go back to the dormitory as soon as possible and sleep comfortably.

"If only there was a time turner...... Kyle thought.

When he first returned to the castle, he met Professor McGonagall.

"I want to go to you?"

"Bad news...... Professor McGonagall handed Kyle a letter, "Unfortunately, your second application for a time turner still failed. ”

"Or is it because there is nothing superfluous?" Kyle took the letter, only to feel more uncomfortable in his head.

"That's right."

Professor McGonagall nodded, "They also made it clear that this year is special and all the time turners are being used. ”

Kyle glanced at the letter in his hand, which was only a few lines of words.

"Dear Albus Dumbledore.

Unfortunately, for some special reason, all the time converters are in use, so we will have to temporarily withdraw their rights until next June.

I hope you understand.

…… Department of Mysteries, Roderick Bodø. ”

"Dumbledore?" Kyle whispered.

"The application was written by the principal himself." Professor McGonagall explained: "But it was still dismissed. ”

Kyle sighed, "So I'm sure I won't be able to use the time turner this year?" ”

"I think, yes."

Professor McGonagall glanced at him, and Kyle's full schedule was naturally known to her.

Whether it's her Transfiguration Club or Professor Flitwick's Charms Club, the content is much more difficult than normal schoolwork.

And Kyle has twelve more classes to learn, so it's no wonder he wants a time turner so much.

But the Department of Mysteries wouldn't approve it, and she couldn't do anything about it, after all, all the time turners were kept there.

Just as Kyle looked down at the letter, he suddenly heard a voice...... A sound completely different from the sound of the wind, the crackling of a burning candle.

It was an old whisper, mechanical, cold, and emotionless.

"Come here...... Come here...... I can give you whatever you want. ”

Kyle's hand shook, nearly tearing the letter in his hand.

"What?" He jerked his head up.

"I mean, it's a pity, but you're definitely not going to use a time-turner this year." Professor McGonagall whispered.

"Not that, Professor." Kyle shook his head, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I just heard someone talking, as if to let me pass." ”

Professor McGonagall looked around suspiciously, then frowned slightly, her fingers twirling slightly......

Kyle felt a soothing breeze blow past him and head deeper into the castle.

After a few seconds......

"No one is talking, Kyle, there's nothing around us."

Professor McGonagall said, "The nearest Lady Loris is twenty feet away, and there are two walls separating it, so it is obvious that its voice cannot be reached here. ”

"Maybe I misheard." Kyle rubbed his ears.

"It may also be that you are too tired, it is good to love learning, but you can't force yourself too much."

Professor McGonagall thought for a moment and continued, "While I can't cancel my course selection now, I'll go to Professors Bubbaji and Trelawney later to see if I can waive your homework.

There's also Quidditch training, and I think you can put it on for a while as well...... In my personal opinion, you only need to train once a week.

Also, the Transformation Club allows you to take time off at any time, so you should be able to make it a little easier. ”

Keredi Bubaji was a professor in Muggle studies, and Trelawney was a professor in divination.

And the test scores of these two courses are relatively not that important.

It's just that Professor McGonagall doesn't know that, in addition to this, Kyle actually participates in a "Magic Club".

The study of the magic text is already difficult, plus you have to pay attention to the traps deliberately set by Xindel...... As a result, his time is running out of time.

As for training and homework...... That's all minor issues, and it's not that important.

But Professor McGonagall said so, and he naturally wouldn't refuse.

After saying goodbye to Professor McGonagall, Kyle leaves on his own, confused.

In the Hufflepuff common room, there are still quite a few people catching up on their homework.

Cedric didn't come back with him, and as the team's Seeker, Harris put all his hopes on him.

He's still at the Quidditch pitch, practicing those classic Seeker feints.

Kyle says hello to a few acquaintances and returns to his dorm.

Mikel and Ryan were also out making up their homework, and he was the only one in the dorm room for the time being.

Kyle was lying on his bed, still thinking about what had just happened at the castle gate.

Who's talking......

Basilisk?

Probably not.

The basilisk could travel through the pipes in the wall and make noises where no one else could see, but someone had to let it out.

But Riddle's diary was still in his box, and he didn't have a chance to do anything.

In the bathroom on the second floor, the props he had set up didn't make any noise...... If nothing else, the basilisk should still be sleeping in the secret room.

And most importantly, he had heard the voice of the basilisk last year, and although it was also emotionless, it didn't sound old...... On the contrary, he is quite young.

If it's not a basilisk, who would it be......

Kyle rolled over in bed and stared at a pot of flowers on the windowsill.

I can't really be too tired, I heard it wrong.
