Chapter 146: Cedric the Savior
Chapter 146 Cedric the Savior
On the first day of the new school year, Fred and George immediately became the center of attention.
Even when they returned to the common room, the topic of conversation among the young wizards was still the two of them.
“Do you think the Weasley brothers could really sell that candy?”
Cedric sat on the sofa and asked with some suspicion: "Professor McGonagall would not agree."
"It's definitely not okay to make a big show of it." Kyle thought for a moment and said, "But as long as you don't get caught, it'll be fine. The school also prohibits bringing big dung eggs and hard-drawn fireworks into the castle, but haven't you seen enough of those things? ?
Professors are usually very busy and have no time to take care of such trivial matters. "
“It’s different, isn’t it?” Cedric frowned.
He remembered that the Weasley brothers told him before school started that those candies were used to help the little wizards skip classes... Can the professor ignore it?
In response, Kyle shrugged and said he didn't know.
But based on what he knew about Fred and George, these two people had probably already figured out a solution.
And as long as they are not caught red-handed, the professors probably will not suspect Fred and George.
They will only think that this kind of candy is just a product of Zuko or other joke shops, and finally put Fat Tongue Toffee directly on the list of contraband.
Hmm...that's probably the case.
As a fixed program of Hufflepuff, make-up homework after the start of school is definitely indispensable.
As more and more people filled the common room, Kyle and Cedric also returned to their respective dormitories, giving up their seats to the students who wanted to create miracles.
Their dormitory is still the same as last year, except there is an extra sign on the door that says "Second Year".
The furnishings in the room have not changed at all, and they are very clean. The house elves must have cleaned them in advance.
Kyle was lying on the bed, looking at everything familiar in front of him, and his consciousness quickly became blurred.
Because he went to bed early, Kyle got up early the next day and went to the eighth floor of the castle alone.
Because the Room of Requirement can perfectly simulate the natural environment, and the moon-crazy beast regularly fertilizes it every day, even if Kyle doesn't take care of it for two months, the flowerbed will still be in good condition.
But there are definitely changes.
The most obvious one is the Devil's Net, because it is the closest to the Moon Crazy Beast's lair, and its size is much larger than two months ago. The tendrils have become almost as thick as the wrist, and the color is darker.
Also, the biting cabbage planted before the holidays has also sprouted, and their fist-sized mouths are opening and closing. Kyle estimates that they will start to grow teeth in a week or two.
The white flowers and rue are also growing well, and they are lush and green.
Yue Chi Beast is sleeping.
The Billywig was having fun in the sky. When it saw Kyle, it immediately flew over with the propeller on its head.
Kyle subconsciously took a step back, briefly greeted it and left the Room of Requirement.
This little guy seemed a little too excited today, flying around Kyle, completely forgetting that he still had a poisonous needle on his body.
Kyle didn't want to get stung by it.
After leaving the Room of Requirement, Kyle came down the stairs and returned to the auditorium.
There were already many people sitting in the auditorium at this time. They gathered together in twos and threes, looking in the direction of the Gryffindor table and whispering.
“It’s over there, look.”
“Which way?”
“Next to the tall red-haired boy, the one wearing glasses.”
“Harry Potter!”
“Did you see his face...that scar?”
Harry looked very unaccustomed to this kind of gaze. He lowered his head and ate his breakfast quickly.
Kyle walked over to the Hufflepuff table.
Fred and George are here too, talking to Cedric. “Job, Cedric, you have to save us.”
Fred said pitifully: "I didn't expect that there would be a Potions class on the first day of the new school year. If I can't hand in my homework in time..."
George shuddered and said, "Snape will definitely kill us."
"I can lend you my homework." Cedric said, "But class is about to begin. Are you sure it's too late to make up for it now?"
“It should be in time.”
Fred nodded repeatedly and said: "Our second period is Potions class, so we can finish writing in Divination class."
“Okay then.” Cedric thought for a while and said, “I’ll get it for you after breakfast.”
“Thank you so much!”
Fred and George looked at Cedric with grateful expressions.
“You saved our lives!”
Cedric just smiled. From last night to now, he has saved many people.
Kyle sat next to the Weasley brothers and asked curiously: "Have you chosen the Divination class?"
“Divination and the protection of magical creatures.”
Fred said: "You must take the Divination class. I heard from Charlie that it is easy to get high marks in this class, and the class is also very relaxed."
“As long as we speak plainly when Professor Crelawny asks, we can do what we like.”
George said: "I suggest you take a divination class next year. This class is simply good news for students."
“This is indeed something you can consider.”
Kyle looked at the two of them, hesitated for a moment and then suddenly said: "If possible, I suggest you take another ancient magic text class."
"Why do you say that?"
Fred said doubtfully: "It is said that this course is difficult."
"It should be said that it is very difficult." George frowned: "During the holidays, Percy spent most of the time watching this."
"Indeed it is."
Kyle nodded and said: "But haven't you always wanted to open a joke shop? Ancient magic texts are of great help to alchemy."
Alchemy?
Fred and George looked at each other, and they somewhat understood what Kyle meant.
Those joke products are also one of the alchemical items. If this is the case, then the ancient magic text is indeed very useful to them.
“Kyle, why are you talking about such an important thing now?” George scratched his hair and said.
Now that the course selection is over, if they want to take Ancient Runes, they can only ask Professor McGonagall to apply for an additional course.
It's just three elective courses... This will undoubtedly take up a lot of time. If they really go to Professor McGonagall to apply, they won't be able to do the things they like.
But opening a joke shop of their own has always been their dream. If the ancient magic script is really helpful to alchemy, they definitely cannot give up.
The two people suddenly fell into a tangle.
“How about we discuss it with Professor McGonagall?”
After thinking for a moment, George asked tentatively: "Do you think she would agree with us changing the Care of Magical Creatures class to ancient runes?"
…
Sorry, I just came back from outside last night and forgot to post on time.
哐哐哐…please forgive me!
