Chapter 630: informer
Chapter 630 Informer
The party at the Pig Head Bar lasted longer than Kyle expected.
It took about two hours before people began to come out one after another.
At the front were Fred, George and their friend Li Jordan. The three of them were in a hurry. After leaving the Pig's Head Bar, they hurried towards Zuko's Joke Shop.
After that came Colin from Gryffindor, Angelita, Ryan from Hufflepuff, Mikel, Justin, and three Ravenclaw boys that Kyle couldn't name...
The people around were stunned. They probably never dreamed that there would be so many customers in the most unpopular Pig Head Bar.
It wasn't until everyone left that Cedric, who was left at the end, walked out of the Pig's Head Bar together.
Through the window of the Three Broomsticks, Kyle could clearly see Cedric standing on the main road, looking around angrily, as if he was looking for someone.
“He’s not looking for you, is he?” Kangna asked in a low voice, “Did you tell him before that you wouldn’t go to the Pig’s Head Bar today?”
“Hmm…I forgot.” Kyle said.
In fact, it was only when he met the Greengrass sisters in the Feng Ya wizarding clothing store that he realized that he should support Fudge now and should not get too involved in things that went against the Ministry of Magic.
“Are you going to wait for him here?” Connor asked.
Kyle thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Forget it, he is probably quite angry right now. Let's talk about it later when we get back to the castle."
He immediately stood up, and before Cedric noticed it, he and Connor walked through the round tables to the other side of the bar, opened the door and slipped out of the Three Broomsticks.
The two went to the clothing store again, picked up the thick robes and left Hogsmeade.
It was not until night that Cedric returned to the castle. His hair was messy and he looked a little more anxious than usual.
Kyle also found an opportunity to explain to him why he didn't go to the Pig's Head Bar today.
Although Cedric believed Kyle's words, he still looked a little unhappy.
"Do you know how many people were there that day?" He said dissatisfiedly in the common room: "Fifty-three, those original guests thought this was Dumbledore's way of dealing with the Pig's Head Bar, so they all ran away! "
"Isn't that just right?" Kyle said, "You don't have to worry about anyone eavesdropping."
“The problem is that I can’t teach so many people.”
Cedric said, "Fifty-three people, which is almost the same as the number of people in the class on a regular basis, but I'm not a real professor, so what if I mess up."
At this point, he couldn't help but raise his voice a little, and looked at Kyle with some complaints, "I originally wanted you to help share a part, but you didn't come at all that day."
“You can find someone else,” Kyle said.
"That's the only way it can be." Cedric thought for a while, "What do you think of Hermione? I remember that she has always been the first in her grade, and she is also the prefect."
"If you want to improve your test scores, Hermione is indeed a good candidate." Kyle said, "But the purpose of your self-study Defense Against the Dark Arts is to improve your self-protection ability, so Hermione is a bit inappropriate. .
“To be honest, her Defense Against the Dark Arts test score is high, but her use of spells is not particularly good.
“I think you could consider Harry Potter.”
“Potter?” Cedric was a little surprised.
He and Harry were not particularly familiar with each other. Apart from knowing that the other party had a good Quidditch talent, he didn't know much about anything else.
"That's right." Kyle continued: "Sirius, including Moody, have said that he is very talented in Defense Against the Dark Arts. Whether it is the Disarming Curse or the Iron Armor Curse, he is very skilled in using it."
"If that's the case, that's true." Cedric pondered for a moment.
The Armor Curse and the Disarming Curse have a wide range of applications and are most effective when facing enemies. Therefore, if they want to learn Defense Against the Dark Arts by themselves, they must learn these two spells.
"Then I'll go find him tomorrow." Cedric was still a little anxious, "Fifty-three people, I hope it won't mess up..."
…
For the rest of the weekend, there was always an atmosphere of anticipation in the castle, just like when Sirius first arrived at Hogwarts, everyone couldn't wait to see his class.
The next morning, Cedric left the Hufflepuff common room early and went to the Great Hall to wait for Harry.
Kyle originally wanted to follow him to have a look, but before he could reach the auditorium, a person suddenly appeared and stopped in front of him.
Kyle had an impression of this man, Denis Creevey of Gryffindor, a member of the Harry Potter admirers club.
"Kyle..." He seemed to be running all the way and said breathlessly: "Umbridge wants you to go to her office."
"when?"
"Now."
“Okay, I get it.” Kyle nodded.
After Dennis Creevey left, Kyle looked at the nearby auditorium and sighed: "If I had known, I would have come earlier, and maybe I could still have breakfast."
"Why is Umbridge looking for you at this time?" Connor was a little worried. "Do you need me to tell Professor Sprout?"
"No need." Kyle said, "I guess she probably knows what happened in Hogsmeade yesterday."
“Umbridge knew it so quickly?” Connor immediately thought of something, “Someone must have snitched!
“I heard from Letty last night that Zachary Smith has been questioning Harry’s news about the mysterious man’s resurrection. He also said that Cedric was too stupid and was deceived by him.”
"Zacharis?" Kyle naturally knew this person. Like him, the other person was a sixth-year Hufflepuff student, and in the second grade, he also competed for the position of Chaser.
But Kyle's performance was so perfect at that time that no one else had anything to do, so that all the people who competed for the Chaser were eliminated during the selection stage.
One thing to say is that this person's character is indeed not very good, he is arrogant and arrogant, and he always likes to attract the attention of people around him by refuting others.
Many people believe that Zacharias should not be sorted into Hufflepuff. Ravenclaw and Slytherin are more suitable for him.
So he would raise questions. Kyle didn't find it surprising at all. In fact, he had expressed many times before that he wanted Harry and Dumbledore to present evidence of Voldemort's resurrection.
“And Teri Butt of Ravenclaw.”
Conna said another name. "Letty said he was laughing all the time, as if the party was a stage show.
“The whistleblower is probably one of them.”
"This is not surprising. After all, none of us can guarantee that we will not make mistakes or attract people with ulterior motives."
Kyle said, “In addition, if more than fifty people go to a bar where no students usually go at the same time, it will inevitably attract the attention of other people.”
"She won't make things difficult for you." Kangna was still a little worried.
"Don't worry, I can handle it." Kyle said, "Don't go to other professors. It will be a lot of trouble if they come."
After that, he asked Kangna to go to the auditorium first, while he turned and walked towards the stairs.
