Chapter 112: The mouse and the witch
Chapter 112 The Rat and the Witch
As if suddenly, their closets were empty, and the playfulness of the little wizards could no longer be heard in the dormitory.
But unlike when school started, there were some pictures on the walls of the dormitory that had not been taken away. The Quidditch players on them were just as usual, repeating the action of throwing the ball, then cheering and celebrating. They seemed to know The owner here will be back soon.
Notices were sent to every student, warning them not to use magic during the holidays.
Since Hagrid was still at St. Mungo's at the moment, Professor McGonagall was temporarily responsible for leading them aboard the fleet of boats crossing the lake.
On the Hogwarts Express, Kyle refused the invitation of the Weasley brothers and did not go to the box with them to discuss the future path (how to earn galleons next semester) and the development direction of the wizarding world (how to make them products sold outside of Hogwarts).
The huge sum of one hundred Galleons has made the Weasley brothers a little bit obsessed. In the last few days of the semester, they did not even look for clues to the Marauder's Map password, and have been studying how to make more money.
Hope they can come up with some good ideas.
Kyle walked forward along the train and pushed open a compartment door at the end.
There is only one person inside.
Kanna curled up on the seat and stared blankly at the neat wheat fields outside the window.
Kyle sat opposite her naturally, "Are you still sad about Pochi?"
…
“Her name is not Porky.”
After a long silence, Kangna spoke softly: "Her name is Ratri, and she is my great-aunt."
…
Kanna also seemed to want to find someone to talk to, and she talked a lot.
The countryside outside the train window became more and more green and tidy. As the train passed through Muggle towns, Kyle gradually understood what was going on.
This is a very clichéd story.
Eleven years ago, Connor's father accidentally said Voldemort's name while drunk and was killed by the Death Eaters who came.
Fortunately, Kangna and her mother were not at home at that time, so they escaped the disaster.
Then shortly before the start of school last year, Kangna's mother also died in an accident. Since then, Kangna was the only one left in the Prince family.
Although the surname Prince is not as famous as the Holy Twenty-Eight Family, it can be regarded as a pureblood with a long history. This incident naturally attracted the attention of many people.
Pochi…Latri appeared at this time.
But when she came over, she discovered that the Kangna family’s previous property had long been divided up by other purebloods.
So she set her sights on Gringotts's vault, hoping to use her Animagus to steal the key.
As long as she gets the key and finds a way to get rid of Kangna, she can use Prince's status as a distant relative to take away the contents.
Later on, she actually found it, but pure-blood families always treasure the treasures at the bottom of the box. The box where the key to the Prince family's treasury is stored is like this, and it requires direct blood to open it.
But the problem is that she doesn't know how to cast the Imperius Curse, and she doesn't dare to find anyone to cooperate.
Just when she was worried about what to do, the shocked Connor accidentally fell in love with the mouse that "always stayed with her at home" and took it to Hogwarts as a pet.
Needless to say what happened next, she began to try every means to steal Connor's money, hoping that she would leave Hogwarts as soon as possible and get the key to the Gringotts vault.
Her action was originally very successful. If nothing else happened, Kangna would go home to withdraw money during the Christmas vacation, but unexpectedly, Kyle came out halfway and forcibly resuscitated Kangna's life.
According to Conner, Rattry kept yelling at the "nosy boy" after he was given Veritaserum.
Kyle touched his chin, pondered for a moment and said, "So, I saved your life?"
“That’s true.” Kangna nodded.
She felt much better after she said what she had been hiding in her heart.
“Then you have to thank me properly.”
Kyle said with a smile: "And after you ran out of mice, I also lost a large order of supplements." "Then I will continue to buy them."
Kanna took out a deformed lizard skin bag and put it on the table, "It's still the same as before, one bottle per month until these are used up."
The bags were filled with gold galleons.
In addition to the original one hundred galleons, there are also those that were stolen before, adding up to about one hundred and fifty.
“Where’s that **** rat?”
“I can go to Diagon Alley and buy another one.”
“Are you sure… you still want to raise rats?” Kyle glanced at her suspiciously.
“You care about me!” Kangna seemed to be thinking of the scene in the Forbidden Forest, and her expression suddenly became a little ugly, “Do you want it or not? I won’t buy it!”
“If you want it, the fool who brought it to your door won’t want it!”
Kyle quickly put the bag on the table into his pocket.
“By the way, like Bo... that mouse, are there many people coveting your family’s treasury?”
Kanna turned her head to the side and said nothing.
Looking at her look, Kyle knew the answer.
Think about it, the magic world is so big, and for every pure-blood family, there must be a lot of distant relatives who are out of reach.
Kanna was unhappy after taking the exam, probably because she didn't want to go back and face these people.
"Well, I won't give you the tonic." Kyle tapped his fingers on the table and said thoughtfully: "But how about using people's money to eliminate disasters for others, and I can help you solve these troubles."
"What do you mean?" Kangna tilted her head, not understanding.
“Leave this matter to me.” Kyle said calmly: “I promise, no one will bother you again during the summer vacation.”
"Really..." Kangna glanced at Kyle suspiciously, obviously not believing it.
“Actually, you don’t need to comfort me, I can handle them.”
“Just wait and see, you won’t be disappointed.”
Kyle didn't explain, but took out a lot of snacks and put them on the table.
He is a little hungry.
There is nothing else to be found on the train. If you don’t bring food in advance, you can only eat some snacks to fill your stomach.
At this moment, Cedric and Qiu suddenly opened the box door.
“Kanna, I’ve been looking for you.”
Qiu sat next to Kangna and asked with concern: "How are you? Are you in a better mood?"
“Much better.” Kang Na smiled back.
In fact, they have been here before, but they just didn't come in.
“Kyle, do you have any plans for the summer vacation?”
Cedric opened a pack of chocolate frogs and said, "My dad is going to take me to France. We can go together."
France?
Kyle thought about it, this was a good place, and he was also quite curious about Beauxbatons Academy of Magic.
It’s just a little too far.
After thinking about it carefully, Kyle shook his head: "Next time, Cedric, I have other plans for the summer vacation."
"That's a pity." Cedric said with some disappointment, "I will bring you a gift."
