Chapter 247: Return trip with different gifts
Chapter 247 Return and Different Gifts
When Kyle returned to St. Catchpol Village again, it was already evening.
When he finished his journey with the portkey and jumped down from the air, he saw a large group of people standing there.
Chris seemed to have received the news that he was coming back in advance and was waiting at the door early.
“Dumbledore wrote to say you would be back today.” Chris smiled and said, “But I didn’t expect it to be so late.”
“Originally the plan was to go in the afternoon, but it was delayed due to some things.”
“It’s okay, we’re just in time for dinner.”
Chris opened the door.
As soon as Kyle walked in, before he could take a sip of water, he couldn't wait to ask: "Tell me, what kind of person is Mr. Nicoléme. I think... he must be a rigorous and self-disciplined scholar. "
“Um… almost.” Kyle’s expression became a little strange.
It’s hard to say rigorously…
But during this period, every time he saw Nico, he always wore a pair of toad glasses, a floral shirt and shorts, lying on a chair listening to the opera.
To a certain extent, this can be regarded as a kind of self-discipline.
“Dad, haven’t you seen Nico before?” Kyle asked.
"No." Chris shook his head and joked: "After all, I am not like you, who won the Order of Merlin at the age of twelve."
Then he asked some other questions.
In order to maintain Nico's image, Kyle said a few words vaguely, then hurriedly ended the topic on the pretext of putting his luggage away, and ran upstairs in a hurry.
His room is already filled with all kinds of beautifully wrapped gifts, all of which were given to him on his birthday a few days ago.
It’s just that Kyle was still at Nicoléme’s place at that time, and the owl couldn’t find him at all, so he had to be sent here first.
But now is not the time to open gifts...
As Rodan flapped his wings and flew in through the open window, the voices of Fred and George also came from outside.
“Kyle, are you back?”
“Come out quickly and let me see who we brought here!”
Kyle poked his head out of the window and saw the thin figure behind them at a glance.
“Potter?”
“That’s right?” Fred laughed. “We got him out of that cage.”
“Driving dad’s flying car.”
“That feeling was great, but it’s a pity you didn’t come back.”
Behind the two of them, Harry waved happily to Kyle.
Ron was right what he said before, their family is indeed very close to Kyle.
However, compared to the Burrow, the Kyle family seems much more normal, at least from the outside.
Later, at Kyle's invitation, Harry followed Fred and George into the house.
The room was a large living room, much larger than the Dursleys', but before Harry could take a closer look, he saw Fred and George hurried upstairs.
There was no other way, so he had no choice but to follow.
As soon as they arrived upstairs, the twins opened Kyle's room door aggressively and began to investigate.
“Kyle, you said you were only going for a few days…”
“But it’s been a month now…”
“Do you know how we spent this month?”
"Playing Quidditch in the open space, making trouble for Percy, teasing Ron..." Kyle said calmly: "Or studying quick-acting sugar candies in your room?"
“I think Mrs. Weasley still doesn’t know that you hide all your things under the bed.”
Fred and George looked at each other and immediately put on smiles.
“Haha, Kyle, you guessed wrong…”
"Actually, we put things under Ron's bed." Next to Harry, Ron, who came with him, looked at them confused at first, then blushed and said:
“You never told me!”
No wonder Fred and George always ran to his room recently and lent him a broom to play with.
Ron thought they had gotten better.
Turns out, these are all fake!
"Don't be angry, little Ron, I'm just borrowing your bed temporarily." Fred said with a smile.
Ron had a straight face and said angrily: "No, what if mom finds out? Take it away immediately!"
“Now that you say so...okay.”
George sighed, "You are our younger brother, and it is really sad that you are not even willing to help with this small favor."
Fred also shook his head, "We originally thought about giving you a gift when school starts, but it seems like we should forget it now."
“Don’t worry, we will take them away right away, and our mother will never find out.”
Ron's face became even redder.
He muttered at the corner of his mouth, as if he wanted to take back what he said before, but Fred and George didn't give him this chance.
After the two of them finished speaking, they ran out of the room and went back to pack their things.
While a few people were talking, Harry was looking curiously at the pile of gifts in the room.
And he also noticed that many gifts had "Happy Birthday" written on the packaging.
Harry was stunned for a moment, turned his head, and asked in a low voice: "Ron, you should have told me earlier that today is Kyle's birthday. I didn't even have time to prepare a gift."
“What…oh, no.”
Ron finally came to his senses, shook his head and said: "Actually, Kyle's birthday is on July 31st, many days have passed."
“July 31st, that’s not…”
"Yes Harry, Kyle and your birthday are on the same day." Ron frowned and asked doubtfully: "Didn't I say that before?"
“Never…” Harry muttered.
Even though he said this, Harry always felt as if he had heard the news.
“Oh, I remember, it’s Hagrid…”
After thinking for a moment, he suddenly clapped his hands and said suddenly: "He told me when he took me to Diagon Alley for the first time last year that Kyle and I have the same birthday."
“What are you talking about?” At this time, Kyle also noticed the two people whispering.
"Nothing..." Harry shook his head quickly and said, "But Kyle, you were clearly not at home before. Why is the gift for you here? Could it be that it was also intercepted by the house elf?"
"House elf? Of course not." Kyle shook his head and said: "It's just that the place I went to was special and the owl couldn't find it."
"But speaking of gifts...I made this for you all myself."
Kyle took out two small boxes from his pocket and threw them to them.
The two of them caught it quickly.
In Harry's box is a badge.
"That's a waterproof and moisture-proof badge." Kyle explained: "If you wear it, you can play Quidditch on a rainy day without any impact."
This was originally intended for Fred and George, but it's okay to give it to Harry. It's not troublesome anyway. I'll just make another one when the time comes.
"Thank you, this is great!" Harry put the badge on his body on the spot and secretly decided to give Kyle a birthday present next time he went to Diagon Alley.
Ron's gift was tailor-made for him by Kyle...a quill that can automatically dispense ink.
It can greatly improve the efficiency of writing homework and save more entertainment time.
I just don’t know why, but Ron doesn’t seem so happy.
