As Kyle leaves the room and returns to the common room, the sudden noise in his ears almost knocks him to his back.

Without Kyle having to walk on his own, a dozen pairs of hands directly dragged him in...... Otherwise, the space at the door is limited, and it is estimated that there will be more.

"Smack, smack, smack......"

About a dozen latte streamers exploded in the break room, and everyone in Hufflepuff was screaming and cheering.

"Welcome to the warriors of Hogwarts!" Someone shouted in the lead.

It was Fred, and George, who somehow got in, and were excitedly preparing to open the second latte ribbon.

"Yours is yours." Cedric squeezed through the crowd, "Professor Sprout was here just now, and she was dancing with joy, and it was the first time I've seen her so excited. ”

"We prepared something to eat...... It's waiting for you. "Seriously, it's so convenient to have the kitchen right next door." ”

"And Butterbeer......," said George, "and the house-elf in the kitchen got it back from Hogsmeade in five minutes, and it was three barrels." ”

Then, Kyle is dragged by a group of people to the table that was put together.

It was filled with all sorts of delicacies, almost as sumptuous as a banquet, and there were three barrels of butterbeer about his height next to the table, enough for almost everyone to drink all night.

Kyle was tempted to say that he was well fed at the banquet and wasn't hungry at all, but no one listened to him.

Everyone surrounded him, and people kept shoving butterbeer into his hands, and everyone wanted to know what the first event of the Triwizard Tournament was.

"I don't know." Kyle said, "They didn't say anything, the only thing I knew was that the game was back on November 30th. ”

But there are so many people around that there are always things that he hasn't heard, and Kyle can only take the trouble to explain them over and over again...... It was the first time he had discovered that there were so many people in the Hufflepuff common room.

Two hours later, Fred and George put their hands on each other's shoulders and staggered away, and Kyle finally broke away from the crowd and hurried back to his dorm.

He really couldn't drink anymore.

……

I don't know how late they celebrated, but when Kyle woke up on Sunday morning, there were only a few people in the common room.

The table and floor, which had been a mess before, had been cleaned up, and there were no cookie crumbs left.

"Are you awake, do you want something to eat?" Connor opened a tray on the table with a few slices of bread, sliced ham, and a jug of pumpkin juice.

"It's time for breakfast, which I just got from the kitchen."

"Thank you." Kyle said.

He shoved the bread and ham into his mouth, but the pumpkin juice didn't touch it at all...... It looked so much like butterbeer that he felt a pang of discomfort in his stomach just by looking at it.

"Do you want to go for a walk?" Worried about being surrounded by people again after a while, Kyle decides to go outside and hide after breakfast.

"Yes." Connor said.

The two of them walked through the barrel door and down the foyer to the grounds outside the castle.

Durmstrang's big boat was parked in the Black Lagoon, and as the water swayed, Kyle wondered if they would be able to rest well at night.

"Where are you going?" Connor asked.

"How about going to Hagrid." Kyle thought for a moment, "It seems like we haven't been to his cabin in a long time. ”

"Good idea."

The two of them walked slowly along the meadow in the direction of the Forbidden Forest.

As they approached Hagrid's hut on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, Connor suddenly asked, "Do you smell anything?" ”

"It looks like a wine ......," Kyle said, looking left and right, quickly identifying the source of the wine's taste.

Not far from the hut, there was a makeshift enclosure into which Hagrid was moving large wooden barrels.

At this time, Hagrid also turned around and saw Kyle and Connor walking by.

"It's finally here." He feigned anger and said, "I thought you little ones had forgotten where I lived." ”

"Of course not, we're just too busy." Kyle said, "You know, fifth grade is. L. year, too much homework to write. ”

"It's really rare, I didn't expect you to complain about too much homework sometimes." Hagrid smiled and said, "By the way, congratulations on becoming a warrior, I knew it had to be you." ”

"Thank you." Kyle said, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Prepare breakfast for these horses." Hagrid gestured to the elephant-like rune horses in the paddock, "They only drink pure malt whiskey, which I got up early in the morning and went to Hogsmeade to buy it.

But it's all worth it...... They're beautiful, aren't they. ”

"yes......" Kyle leaned against the fence, his eyes unblinking, staring at the rune horse inside.

Hagrid was right, these big guys were really beautiful, but unfortunately they were from Beauxbatons, and there weren't many of them......

Kyle shook his head and didn't look any further.

At this time, Hagrid also moved the last cask in, and when he opened the seal, a rich smell of wine immediately wafted out.

"That's it." Hagrid clapped his hands and walked out of the paddock, "These whiskeys are enough for them to drink all day." ”

"Do they only drink whiskey?" Connor asked.

"Of course not." "They also eat the grass here, and in the evening, I bring some fresh rue leaves...... That's what Ms. Maxim said. ”

Inexplicably, Hagrid burst out laughing.

"What's wrong with you?" Connor asked, she always felt that Hagrid was weird today.

In particular, he seems to have smeared a lot of lubricating oil on his hair, and it looks shiny, as for the effect...... It's hard to describe, and Connor decided not to comment.

"No, nothing." Hagrid said with a flustered face, "Do you want some tea, come here." ”

With that, he took two quick steps and led Kyle and Connor back to the cabin not far away.

It was the same as when I came before, with huge wooden beds, rags quilts, and equally large wooden tables and chairs in front of the fire.

Hagrid starts to make tea, but Kyle notices a piece of clothing hanging on the wall, which is Hagrid's best ...... At the same time, it was also the ugliest one, a fluffy brown coat.

Next to it is a yellow and orange-red patterned tie.

It's a magical combination that Kyle has never seen anywhere else.

Connor also noticed that the two looked at each other in the same way, and they tacitly did not say anything.

In fact, they didn't say that when Hagrid first became a professor last year, he wore this outfit, and Kyle persuaded him to go to Hogsmeade more than once to change the outfit, and the proprietress in the Wizard Costume Store of the Elegance brand still has a good eye for it, and can always match the style that suits everyone.

But after all this time, Hagrid's favorite is still this set, and he will turn it over whenever there is an important day.

How to say it, although I don't understand, but respect it.

Also, these are not for them.

It was not easy for Hagrid, who was more than three meters tall, to meet someone of his height and weight, and it just so happened that Miss Maxim of Beauxbatons was one of them, and she was even half a head taller than Hagrid.

As the same kind of people, maybe their aesthetics have something in common, and they think this combination is beautiful...... It's not impossible.
