Chapter 752: Sweet Pudding

"Professor McGonagall, what do you think......

Two hours later, Kyle and the professors left the Room of Requirement just before curfew.

"There is no doubt that this is indeed the work of Rowena Ravenclaw." Professor McGonagall said, "I can't think of anyone else who could have done that to this extent." ”

"Do I need to let you know when I come tomorrow?" Kyle said.

After all, there was only one key, and he didn't want to give it to anyone else, so if he wanted to go to the Room of Requirement now, he had to go with everyone.

"No need......

"It's good to come by yourself......"

To Kyle's surprise, all four professors rejected his offer.

"Do you feel weird?" Professor Barburing asked with a smirk.

"Sort of." Kyle said truthfully.

Although Ravenclaw's memories are dominated by magical texts, the professors at Hogwarts are not incompetent and cannot be incompetent...... At least Professor Babling certainly didn't have any problems.

But she, like Professor McGonagall, did not hesitate to decline the invitation to go again.

"That's right......," Professor Babling explained, "Unlike you, we have a long history of magic, and this perception has been almost throughout our lives, and it is very difficult to change. ”

"And more importantly, it's your catch-up lesson." Professor McGonagall continued, "Ms. Rowena Ravenclaw must have been deliberately adjusted and selected, and all the courses are tailored to you...... It's right for you, but not for us. ”

"Doesn't it help at all?" Kyle frowned.

He originally wanted to use this "make-up class" to improve the overall combat effectiveness of Hogwarts.

"Of course not, I'm just saying that the course content is not for us." Professor McGonagall's face became serious. "But some of their unique views on Transfiguration, and ideas that are completely different from modern Transfiguration, are still very valuable.

"I've learned a lot, but I need time to slowly sort out these ideas and ideas and try to incorporate them into my magic, which is not something that can be done in a day or two."

"Me too." Professor Flitwick said in a sharp voice, "I've been inspired to rehash the paper I wrote ten years ago on the theory of wandless spellcasting.

"In the past, for some reasons, my ideas were always unable to be put into practice, but just now I saw another possibility."

"Thank you for that, Kyle." Professor Flitwick happily patted Kyle on the back.

…… This was already the highest place he could touch.

"Is that so?" Seeing that the professors had gained something, Kyle didn't say anything more.

As for Professor Sprout, she is not interested in magic spells, only magical plants...... Unfortunately, Hogwarts thousands of years ago didn't have herbal medicine classes, and she couldn't bring out the potted plants in the school.

It's embarrassing.

It can be said that the only person who has nothing to gain this time is her, but Professor Sprout himself does not care very much.

……

And with the professor's approval, Kyle doesn't need to think about anything else at all.

For weeks, he would go to the Room of Requirement early in the morning and not come out until evening.

Sometimes it's too late, and he'll stay there directly.

After all, there is a replica of the full Hogwarts in the Room of Requirement, which naturally includes the common room of the house.

Everyone knew that the way to enter the Hufflepuff common room had never changed, and Kyle easily knocked on the barrel door.

Unlike the common room in my memory, there are only nine dormitories in front of me.

And, I don't know if it's because it doesn't appear in Ravenclaw's memory anymore, and there is no one in the common room.

It's a bit of a strange feeling, but it's okay to stay for one night.

And during this time, Kyle can also clearly feel that his magic level is improving little by little.

It's not the kind of ascension that leaps a thousand miles, it's more like going up the stairs, and although it's not fast, every step is clear, and this feeling makes Kyle very satisfied, and even a little desperate, I can't wait to stay here forever and not go out.

But this is not possible.

The lock that Ravenclaw added to the Room of Requirement not only keeps the others out, but also the house-elves.

They can't get food in.

Kyle has to go out if he wants to eat.

But this is a minor problem, as long as it is a normal class, the only difference is that it is always daytime in the room on request, even if it is night outside, he can go to the classroom for class.

However, in order to ensure that he has enough energy every day, Kyle usually only stays until eleven o'clock, returns to the common room for a supper, and comes back the next morning.

It is precisely because he often appears in the auditorium, and the professor also helps to find excuses, so there is not much heated discussion outside about him taking leave and not going to class.

Everyone just thinks he's revising in his own way, after all, after all, after seventh grade, no matter what decision is made, especially those who have excellent grades.

There are even people who have spent entire seventh year interning at the Auror office of the Ministry of Magic, such as Nymphadora Tonks, who is also a Hufflepuff graduate.

Everyone has long been gone.

……

In this case, April was quickly and quietly halfway over.

It's getting hot. Patches of clear blue sky began to appear above the castle towers, and these signs of summer did not bring much good mood to Hogwarts.

Many people find that the homework has become more and more difficult lately.

I don't know when some rare questions began to appear in the homework assigned by the professors.

Sometimes they even have to spend an hour in the library to figure out what the requirements are.

"Professor McGonagall probably forgot that we just finished attending last year. L. And it won't be ready until next year .. Examination. ”

In the library, Ron couldn't help but complain, "Hermione, can you tell me what the 'Gamp Definition' is?" I only know the basic law of Gamp transformation, is it a change of name? ”

"Of course not." Hermione buried her head in a thick book and said quickly, "The Gamp definition is the theoretical basis for the deformation of the human body, and it also encompasses all the conditions that may occur when the human body is deformed...... Look for yourself, it's in the book "The Lion and the Wizard". ”

"Thank you." Ron said casually, and found the brown Transfiguration reference book.

Next to him, Harry was holding up a finger and waving his arm vigorously.

He was practicing wandless spellcasting, which was also an assignment in Charms class.

I don't know what Professor Flitwick thinks, but since last week, he's suddenly asked everyone to try to cast spells without a wand in class, and they can't chant spells yet.

I have to say, it's really hard.

Harry only felt like his arm was about to break, but the parchment on the table had only moved a little, and he even wondered if it had been blown by the wind.

"Really...... Is Professor Flitwick's approach useful? Harry couldn't help but mutter.

"It definitely works." Hermione looked up at him and said, "I did it in class, first you need to calm yourself down, chant the incantation in your mind, and never think about anything else!" ”

Harry tried a few more times, but to no avail, and he rubbed his sore arm a little helplessly.

"No, it's going to be a Quidditch game soon...... This year is Gryffindor's most likely chance to win the title, and I can't help myself from thinking about it. ”

"Quidditch again." Hermione pursed her lips and said, very incomprehensible. "Is there anything else on your mind besides Quidditch?

"You can learn from Kyle, didn't he play in the last Hufflepuff game? But Hufflepuff still won. ”

"It's a narrow victory." Harry corrected: "If the game had dragged on for another five minutes, it would have been different. ”

"Am I analyzing the battle situation with you?" Hermione couldn't help but raise her voice, but immediately shut her mouth again.

She subconsciously looked around.

Fortunately, because the homework is getting more and more difficult, there are many people who come to the library, and everyone is muttering and complaining while flipping through the books, and even if they are stopped by Mrs. Pince, they will turn the books hard to vent their frustrations.

So her voice just now wasn't particularly abrupt.

"Listen to me, if you want to complete Professor Flitwick's requirements in the next class, you have to concentrate and forget about those competitions." Hermione said, "Maybe you can learn from Kyle and put yourself on the bench." ”

"It can't be." Before Harry could speak, Ron said, "Don't forget, Harry is the best Seeker and most importantly, if he doesn't play, we're going to lose." ”

"You mean, Professor Flitwick's homework doesn't matter?" Hermione didn't give in and said, "Last year and five years ago. . . In the exam, there was a question of casting spells without a wand, don't you want a certificate? ”

"It's just a small question in all exams, how can it be so exaggerated." Ron said nonchalantly, "Besides, now the distance. It's been a long time. ”

Harry didn't speak, but he was on Ron's side in his heart.

Giving up Quidditch? It's impossible, he certainly can't do it.

Hermione, however, probably guessed that this would be the case, glared at them angrily, and pulled her homework back in the middle.

"Then you can cheer yourselves, you two...... Mr. Quidditch. With that, she stood up and walked out of the library without looking back.

"Why is she angry again?" Ron couldn't help but grunt.

"You really shouldn't argue with her." Harry sighed, a little regretful that he hadn't stopped Ron just now.

After all, Hermione had her homework in her hands, and there was no benefit in arguing with her, which was why he didn't say a word just now.

Why doesn't Ron have a long memory?

Homework is much harder now than it used to be, and without Hermione's help, will they really be able to finish it on time?

Thinking of this, Harry sighed again.

Ron also regretted it a little, but for the sake of face, he still stiffened his neck and said: "So what, write it yourself."

"By the way, Harry, did you get the true memories of Slughorn?"

"Not yet." Speaking of this, Harry felt even more uncomfortable, "He seems to be on my guard all the time, and whenever we are alone, he immediately makes excuses to leave, and several times he does. ”

"You're missing a little luck." A voice came from the side.

It was Hermione, who had gone and returned, and she picked through the table, picking out three more books, and preparing to take them to Mrs. Pince.

"Or you can try again." Hermione paused for a moment and continued, "Tomorrow is the Easter holidays, and this is a good opportunity, I think you can try again." ”

"I've tried it many times." Harry said, "He's been avoiding me, what can I do." ”

"Then try again, it will always work." Hermione went to Mrs. Pince to borrow the book, and she didn't even look at Ron the whole time, as if Harry was the only one here.

……

In the evening, a sumptuous Easter dinner was held in the auditorium.

Although the Easter holiday is the same as Christmas, no one chose to leave school and go home, no one chose to stay in school.

The Death Eaters outside became more and more active, and judging by the description in the Daily Prophet, the Death Eaters were no longer content to hide, and they began to take to the streets, spreading fear everywhere.

The battle between the Death Eaters and the Aurors barely stopped, and every day people disappeared, and the Dark Mark that had disappeared for more than a decade now appeared in the sky above a certain house every once in a while.

Because, even if someone wanted to go back for the holidays, they would be severely stopped by their families and told to stay at Hogwarts.

At the dinner table, Kyle eats a chocolate egg specially prepared by the house-elves as he turns his head in the direction of the teacher's seat.

As expected, Dumbledore was still absent, but this time Snape didn't leave, and he happened to be looking over when Kyle looked over.

Their eyes met in mid-air, and then they turned to something else in tacit agreement.

It is worth mentioning that Snape already knew about the Room of Requirement, which Professor McGonagall had told him about.

During this time, Professor McGonagall went to the Room of Requirement two more times, and took Snape with her the second time.

But because it was Kyle holding the key, no matter how interested Snape was, he didn't say anything, as if waiting for Kyle to speak first.

But will Kyle get used to him?

Of course not!

As if he hadn't seen Snape, he led Professor McGonagall into the Room of Requirement and slammed the door shut.

This made Snape very uncomfortable.

And after that time, Professor McGonagall didn't have the idea of going again, and Snape had to find Kyle himself if he wanted to go.

More than once he regretted why he had left the school for a trivial matter, and he would not have had to make any excuses if he had been with the other professors.

……

Then there was Dumbledore, who also learned about what was going on at the school from Professor McGonagall's letter, and hurried back that evening.

But coincidentally, Kyle didn't understand a key issue that night, so he stayed up all night in the Room of Requirement.

By the time he came out for lunch the next day, Dumbledore had left the school ten minutes earlier for something else.

And this happened more than once, and every time Dumbledore returned, it was just in time for Kyle to spend the night in the Room of Requirement.

This made Dumbledore feel bad, and at one point wondered if Kyle had done it on purpose.

But that's what Dumbledore thinks too much.

Kyle had no idea that there had been a centenarian waiting for him at the door for several nights, and he was really just going to class at his own pace.

"How are you going to spend your vacation?" Connor picked a piece of pudding and asked, "Do you still go to the Room of Requirement?" ”

"Definitely." Kyle said, "Come along, I feel like the magic class there is a good fit for you, it's not easy to understand, it's not too difficult, and it's very detailed."

"After you've studied for a while, you should be able to understand other lessons as well."

"Okay." Connor only hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement, she didn't have anything else to do anyway, and it would be good to learn the magic script.

"But Kyle......" she said with some hesitation, "Can we take Professor Snape with us this time?" ”

"Why?" Kyle asked.

"He's asked me a few times, and every time he's wandering, I feel like he's curious about it too."

"Then why didn't he tell me himself." He began to clear his throat and pretended to say, "He's a professor, and if he asks me to take him in, I won't refuse...... But he didn't say it, certainly not interested. ”

Connor rubbed her forehead, a little troubled by the relationship between Snape and Kyle......

How long have they been competing with each other, and they are still so happy that they don't feel annoyed?

"In that case, I will ask for him, is it okay?" Connor turned her head to look at Snape, who was glancing over and over intentionally, and sighed, "You know, I can speak for Professor Snape. ”

"Hmm...... I think about it. Kyle said, touching his chin.

But in the next second, he felt a warm sensation on his cheeks, accompanied by a hint of pudding's sweetness.

"So what?" Connor asked.

"Ahem, it's okay to ......" Kyle blurted out, "No problem, wrap it up on me." ”

He subconsciously glanced at the teacher's seat.

Snape should have also seen the scene of Connor kissing Kyle's cheek just now, and his whole body immediately exploded, and a thick low pressure filled his body, as if he would rush over to give Kyle a set of life-seeking spells in the next second.

But is Kyle afraid?

Far from being afraid, he even raised an eyebrow at Snape triumphantly.

Angry Snape directly kneaded the baked potatoes in his hand into mashed potatoes and kneaded them repeatedly.

"Do you have to be angry with him?" Connor looked at the small movements of the two and shook her head helplessly.

"Sorry, reflex." Kyle quickly put away his smile and turned his head away from Snape.
