Chapter 212: Ron's delusion
Chapter 212 Ron’s Illusion
After remembering the location of the two rowan trees, Kyle did not stop any longer and found Hagrid who was looking at the wooden house with a bundle of randomly picked branches.
"Oh...did you pick it up so quickly?" Hagrid turned his head and said hesitantly: "I wasn't thinking about the dragon eggs, but something ran over there just now...maybe it was a cat nugget. "
“Are there any cats or cats in the Forbidden Forest?”
"Yes."
Seeing that Kyle believed what he said, Hagrid breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In fact, there are quite a few cats and dogs in the Forbidden Forest, but they rarely show up in front of wizards. Even I only see them occasionally. Will see you once.
You should know that this kind of magical animal is very smart and very vigilant. If they want to hide, no one can find them. "
Kyle nodded, Catnives are indeed very smart.
Newt has always believed that they, like cats and leopards, have the innate ability of Legilimency, but the expression of this ability is more complicated, and it does not belong to any known magic.
But one thing is for sure, that is you can never hide your purpose from a cat, because they can easily see where your heart is.
Subconsciously, Kyle thought of his Tom who ate, slept, ate, and turned his belly with his hands...
How should I put it? That guy is definitely an outlier among the cats, just like a husky among the wolves. His main focus is to be new and different.
When he returned to the cabin, Hagrid enthusiastically invited Kyle to go in and sit for a while.
“Next time, Hagrid.” Kyle shook his head and said, “I have to finish my homework quickly and take advantage of the vacation to deal with these branches.
By the way, remember to write me a letter on the day the dragon eggs hatch. I have helped take care of baby dragons at Newt’s place before, so I have some experience in this area. "
"That's great..." Hagrid blurted out, then hurriedly coughed and said: "No, I mean, of course, if you have time!"
“Don’t worry about this, I’ll definitely have time.” Kyle waved his hand and walked towards the castle.
Hagrid turned around and returned to the wooden house.
In the room, Harry, Ron, and Hermione were waiting anxiously. When they saw Hagrid coming back, they quickly gathered around him.
“Where’s Kyle…” Harry asked.
"Oh, he has other things to do and has gone back to the castle." Hagrid took off the bow and arrow from his shoulder and hung it on the wall. "I think you guys should go back to do your homework instead of hanging around here. Ask me about Professor Snape.
I can guarantee that he will never steal the magic stone. "
"But…"
Harry wanted to say something else, but Hermione spoke first: "Is what Kyle is going to do related to those sorbus branches? Also, what is the amulet you mentioned before."
“This…”
Hagrid thought for a while and said: "I remember it was a wooden sculpture about the same size as a gold galleon. It seemed to be called something... Pass the Examination Talisman... I can't remember the name, but the meaning must be correct.
That thing became very popular at Hogwarts last year, almost everyone had one. "
"Pass the exam..." Harry and Ron's eyes suddenly lit up and they asked eagerly:
“Can that thing really help someone pass the exam?”
"How much!"
"You two..." Hermione said angrily: "If you want to pass the exam, read more books instead of counting on that amulet. Also, can you use your brains to think about it, if that thing can really make everyone pass? For exams, how could Professor McGonagall allow them to appear in Hogwarts... This is cheating!"
“Maybe Professor McGonagall doesn’t know...” Ron retorted.
Harry nodded in agreement. "Maybe the professors didn't regard it as a means of cheating at all. After all, Hagrid just said that it only appeared last year, and it was only a short time ago."
“You...hum!”
Hermione was so angry that she snorted coldly and ignored the two people. Instead, she turned her head and said, "Hagrid, can that amulet really make everyone pass the exam?"
"Of course this is impossible." Hagrid said with a smile: "Even last year, there were many people with P (fail) grades, and there were also many D (terrible) and T (troll).
Hermione is right. If you want to pass the exam, you must read more books. This is the only way. "
The light in Harry and Ron's eyes suddenly disappeared.
"So, Kyle is lying?" Harry asked with some disappointment.
“Well...you can’t say that, because Kyle said it more than once last year, that thing has a symbolic meaning and has no other function.”
Hagrid frowned and thought for a moment, then continued: "But the strange thing is that even so, there are still many people who think that thing is actually useful.
I have heard a student say before that his grades in the Charms class have never been satisfactory, but he unexpectedly got an A (pass) in the final exam. "
Hearing this, Harry and Ron's eyes lit up again. Only Hermione frowned, not knowing what she was thinking.
The cabin suddenly fell silent, and the only sound was the sound of Hagrid squatting by the fireplace, sawing wood...well, singing a lullaby.
If Professor Flitwick were here, he would definitely tell everyone that the reason why the student got an A had nothing to do with the amulet and was entirely the result of his efforts.
Unfortunately, Professor Flitwick is not here. He is probably still drinking at Three Broomsticks at this time.
On the way back to the castle, Harry and Ron were still discussing what had just happened.
“It allows people to pass exams...Oh my god, that thing is even more powerful than the Sorcerer’s Stone.” Harry said seriously: “No matter how much it costs, I must buy one!”
"Yeah... I want to buy it too." Ron's mood suddenly became a little depressed. He touched the few copper coins in his pocket and whispered: "I hope it's not too expensive."
"I can...uh, lend it to you, or you can ask Fred and George."
Harry originally wanted to say that he could buy one for him, but soon he remembered that Ron was a little sensitive about Galleons, so he quickly changed the subject:
“I remember they participated in the map at the beginning of school, maybe it will be the same this time.
They are your brothers and they will definitely give you a very favorable price. "
"Yes, you are right, how could I forget this..." Ron suddenly raised his head and said excitedly: "They have always had a good relationship with Kyle, and they will definitely not watch his brother fail the exam. of!"
"snort!"
At this moment, Hermione suddenly bumped into Ron and walked past them quickly.
The laughter of the two men stopped abruptly.
