Chapter 13: little witch and mouse
Chapter 13 The Little Witch and the Mouse
“Wait, you can also brew pet tonics?”
Hearing this, Cedric's eyes lit up and he said, "Then can I ask you for my owl tonic from now on?"
"Of course." Kyle glanced at the gray owl on the shelf next to him and said, "But owls are no more troublesome than mice. The tonic they need is more troublesome. I have to collect nine Sickles."
Don’t think it’s expensive, it’s already the market price, and I got the formula from Newt. The tonic I brewed is much better than those on the market, so it’s definitely worth the money. "
"Um…"
Cedric nodded.
This is true. In Diagon Alley, the cheapest Owl Tonic costs nine cecos, and the better ones even cost one Galleung.
If Kyle's owl tonic recipe really comes from Scamander, it is indeed worth the money.
But...
"It can be cheaper." Cedric said a little coyly: "We are not friends, there must be a discount."
To be honest, Cedric actually wanted to slam the table and buy seven or eight copies of it.
But he is only in the second grade and has only a small amount of pocket money. He is really short of money.
Although Hogwarts provides food and accommodation, expenses such as quills, ink, and parchment are not small. Coupled with other miscellaneous things, it is almost enough for one semester.
Although he can save a lot if he saves a little and eliminates unnecessary expenses, the question is who would think that he has too much money.
It would definitely be good to get a discount.
Facing Cedric's hopeful look, Kyle touched his chin and nodded thoughtfully: "Well, you're right, we are friends, and we definitely can't use the market price."
“Right, right?” Cedric’s eyes brightened.
"Let's do this..." Kyle gritted his teeth, stretched out a finger and said, "You just need to pay this amount."
Cedric said in surprise: "Yixike?"
Kyle shook his head: "No, it's one galleung."
…”
Cedric still had the smile on his face, but his tone had changed.
“One, one Galleons!”
“Is this a discount?”
"Yes, it's 20% off." Kyle said seriously: "Think about it, at Hogwarts, except for those cool brothers and sisters in Slytherin, who else would spend Galleons on it?" Regarding Owl Tonic, my business is very difficult.
Now that I finally have a clear customer who will not fall out, I will definitely make more money. "
…”
Cedric was dumbfounded. When he looked at Kyle again, the corners of his eyes twitched.
That’s so shameless. Can you say this in front of him? And he is so confident and confident, and he still has no basic moral concepts of a wizard.
Cedric was so angry that he was shaking all over. He took a deep breath and said, "Kyle, you will definitely be assigned to Azkaban."
“I’d like to lend you some good words.”
Kyle raised his eyebrows and didn't care at all. He even asked: "Do you still want that owl tonic?"
"want…"
Cedric squeezed out a word through his teeth.
But just when he was about to pay,
The carriage door was pushed open again.
A small figure walked in nervously.
A very beautiful little girl, with brown hair tied into two ponytails, and a little baby fat on her round face. It looks like she must be a newborn.
Um?
Kyle and Cedric looked at each other at the same time. Did he come to see you?
I don’t know her!
Although neither of them spoke, they miraculously understood what the other wanted to express, because it was exactly the same as what they wanted to say.
After understanding what Cedric meant, Kyle looked over again and wondered: "Did you get into the wrong car?"
The little girl seemed to have some social anxiety. When Kyle asked her this question, she subconsciously wanted to run out, but then she held it back, shook her head and said, "No, I'm not wrong. I want to find you."
"Find me?"
Kyle was even more confused. He was very sure that he didn't know the girl in front of him.
Ignoring Cedric’s teasing look, Kyle continued to ask: “What do you want from me?”
While speaking, he looked at the girl again.
I really don’t know each other, and besides, she and Chris don’t have the slightest similarity, so we can basically rule out some ridiculous scenes.
For example, you suddenly have multiple younger sisters before going to school.
“Well...I accidentally overheard your conversation in the corridor just now.”
The girl's voice was very soft, sounding soft and weak, and she didn't know if she was worried about being misunderstood by the two of them. She hurriedly explained: "Please don't misunderstand, I didn't eavesdrop on purpose. The red-haired senior forgot It was closed by accident..."
However, Kyle obviously didn't care about such a trivial matter. He waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, you continue."
The Hogwarts Express is like this, a batch with poor sound insulation. Even if the door is closed tightly, he can still hear the shouting and screaming in the corridor, and it should be the same outside.
Moreover, they didn't deliberately lower their voices when Percy came just now. It was normal for others to hear them, and there was nothing strange about them.
Hearing what Kyle said, the girl breathed a sigh of relief, then put her hand into her pocket and took out a big gray mouse.
? ? ?
Kyle looked at the scene in front of him and felt that it seemed familiar, as if he had just experienced the exact same scene.
Oh, by the way, this is how Percy took out Scabbers just now. Their movements were exactly the same, and even the mice they took out were of the same species.
This is considered a reappearance of a classic?
Thinking of this, Kyle's heart suddenly tightened and he subconsciously looked at the mouse.
The claws are all there, so he should be a serious rat.
Kyle shook his head mockingly, feeling that he was a little too nervous.
I mean, how can there be so many illegal Animagus in the magic world? Even if there are, they won’t all turn into rats lurking around little wizards.
For a weirdo like Peter Pettigrew, one is enough.
After his mood calmed down, Kyle roughly guessed the other party's intention and asked tentatively: "So, you want to buy rat tonic from me?"
There was a mouse with him, and Percy was mentioned. In addition, their previous topics were basically related to pet tonics... Putting these all together, Kyle couldn't think of any other reasons besides rat tonics.
"May I?"
Sure enough, after hearing Kyle's words, the girl nodded, looked at Kyle expectantly with a pair of big watery eyes, and said softly: "I have bought a lot of tonics in Diagon Alley, but the effect is not very good."
“Of course, it’s my pleasure.”
After finding out that the girl in front of him was a customer, Kyle immediately showed a sincere smile: "Wait a minute, I'll get it right away.
By the way, my name is Kyle Joba. For this year’s freshmen, you can call me Kyle. "
“Kang…Kanna.”
The girl's little face with baby fat was slightly red, and she whispered: "Kanna Prince."
