Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard

Chapter 742 Being Neighbors with Snape

"How about it?"

“The stuff is still there.

After Kyle returned to Diagon Alley, he immediately got into the Weasley brothers' shop?

Before others noticed him, he changed his clothes back and said at the same time: "I saw it, the disappearing cabinet is in the Borgin-Bock store."

"Great." Fred said excitedly, "In this way, as long as we keep an eye on the entrance to Knockturn Alley, we can grasp the movements of the Death Eaters."

"Or directly control Borgin-Bock." George said, "It just so happens that our current job is to deal with dark magic items. We can check them for any reason."

"I advise you not to do this, so as not to alert the enemy." Kyle reminded from the side: "Bojin is a cunning guy. Once he finds something wrong, he will inform the Death Eaters of our previous plan. It's all in vain, just maintain the status quo.

"And I also saw traces of werewolves in Knockturn Alley."

"Werewolf?" Fred was startled.

Their shop is less than a hundred feet away from the entrance to Knockturn Alley. If there are really werewolves, this location is not very safe.

"Yes, I guess he was hiding in Knockturn Alley before, and later turned to the mysterious man and was sent to watch Borgin-Bock." Kyle said.

"No way." Fred said, "I heard Lupine mention it. He said that the werewolves in Knockturn Alley were all expelled by Fenrir Clayburgh. Their strength is pitifully low. Even if they want to do it, The mysterious man is working hard for his life, so people shouldn’t look down on him.”

"That's what sneaked in." Kyle said, "At least I felt danger when I passed by him. He must be a strong werewolf."

"Then how are you sure that he is related to the mysterious man?"

“That’s my guess too,” Kyle said. “When we were in the store before, Borgin refused to sell me the disappearing cabinet no matter what, even if I offered a price that I couldn’t refuse under normal circumstances.

"He seems to have some concerns, probably because there is a werewolf watching at the door."

"An irresistible price..." George raised his eyebrows, "You shouldn't have taken our money too, right?"

Kyle said nothing, acquiescing.

"That's all our belongings..." Fred said quietly, "What if Borgin really agrees."

"This is not possible, I know it in my heart." Kyle said, "Even if he really dares to take risks for a few thousand galleons, I will just find other excuses."

"I have another question..." George stopped worrying about Garen and said doubtfully: "Even if the werewolf defected to the mysterious man, it would not be something Malfoy could command. After all, he is only a sixteen-year-old. He's just a minor wizard, not even a real Death Eater."

"Not Malfoy, but there are others."

Kyle said, "Do you expect him to be able to accomplish such a big thing by himself? He must find someone to help him. Sending a werewolf here with just his words is just a piece of cake for some Death Eaters."

"But in this case, we not only have to keep an eye on the Death Eaters, we also have to be extra careful not to let the werewolves run wild on a full moon night. This is Diagon Alley, if a transformed werewolf suddenly runs out , and it’s quite troublesome.”

"Don't worry, just leave it to us." Fred and George said, patting their chests. "We just made a map of Diagon Alley...a simplified version of the Marauder's Map."

He pointed to a seemingly ordinary piece of parchment in front of the window and said, "At that time, we only need to slightly change the map, and we will be able to know the situation at the entrance to Knockturn Alley at any time."

"It's a really good idea." Kyle said calmly: "But I still think it's unreliable. Remember to tell this to Kreacher... Forget it, I'll talk about it later."

"Hey, what do you mean?" Fred said dissatisfiedly, "In your eyes, are we worse than a house elf?"

Kyle looked him up and down, then nodded affirmatively.

Yes, that's what he meant.

"What are you talking about."

Just when Fred and George were about to teach Kyle a lesson, Connor happened to walk over from behind a shelf not far away.

"Kyle, are you done with your things? We have to go back to school quickly."

"Ah, it's done." Kyle said.

"That's good." Kangna said, and she put a few interesting gadgets on the shelves nearby.

"How much are these, Mr. Weasleys?"

"Just take it away." Fred waved his hand, "We're treating you to a treat. It's your first time visiting our store."

"That's not okay. How can you buy something without paying for it?" Kangna shook her head and said, "Hurry up and say how much, or I won't want it."

"Yeah, one size equals one size, we don't take advantage of this." Kyle also echoed beside him.

With that said, he took out a heavy suitcase and placed it on the counter, and said generously: "Forget it, I'll give you these, no need to look for it."

The suitcase was heavy and made a dull sound when it was placed on the counter. It must have been filled with gold coins.

But Fred and George were not happy at all.

"Hey, this is our money."

"Pay the bill with our money, no change required...how did you say that?"

"How shameless!"

Facing the two people's complaints, Kyle just pretended that he didn't hear anything, calmly found the house elf Kreacher, and after explaining some things to him, he and Connor left the shop and walked towards the Leaky Cauldron.

After a while, Fred and George caught up from behind.

"Why do you have to go back so early?"

"Can't we just use Floo with Ron and the others later?"

"We want to, too," Kyle said, "but what about the carriage? We can't stuff it into the fireplace."

"The carriage...oh, how could I forget this? You came in the Thestral carriage." Fred patted his forehead.

"By the way, how did you get it out."

"We have tried before, but the Thestrals refused to leave the school gate no matter what. They would make a sharp chirping sound when they were rushed."

"Fortunately we ran fast, otherwise we would have been caught by Hagrid who came over."

After all, it was Fred and George, the students who gave Professor McGonagall the most headaches, who actually even considered the idea of ​​riding a Thestral carriage.

"No need to ask." Kyle glanced at them, "Of course Professor Dumbledore agreed."

When they heard that the Yeqi carriage was obtained through normal and legal methods, the two of them immediately lost interest.

They walked all the way to the entrance of Diagon Alley, passed through the partition wall to the backyard of the Leaky Cauldron, and then apparated here, returning to a remote alley next to Grimmauld Place.

A Muggle stared at the sudden appearance of several people, rubbing his eyes in disbelief.

Kyle stretched out his wand and shook it. His eyes immediately became blank, as if nothing had happened, and he walked out of the alley as if nothing had happened.

"You're really good at the forgetting spell," George said.

"It's just a small trick."

The Thestral carriage was parked nearby. Kyle was the first to jump on the carriage and pulled Kangna aboard.

"Aren't you going to say goodbye?" Fred asked.

"Didn't I tell you before going to Diagon Alley? It's better to go back as soon as possible." Kyle said.

"By the way, you must remember that if the werewolf really escapes one day, don't be brave and let Kreacher deal with him.

"That old house elf?" George said with some doubt, "Can he do it? Don't let the werewolves eat him as a snack. We can't explain it to Sirius."

"Of course it can be done." Kyle said, "House elves can not only clean and cook, they also have special magic and are as powerful as werewolves.

"Remember Dobby? When he was at school, he poked Lucius Malfoy out with just one finger."

"That's cool!" Fred said with bright eyes. "Do you have a picture?"

"I don't always have a camera with me."

"What a pity." George sighed, "We still want to post the photo in the most conspicuous place in the store."

"Then you'd better post something else." Kyle patted Yeqi on the back.

"Okay, don't be careless, I don't want to waste time brewing wolfsbane potion for you."

"Don't worry." The two waved their hands, "See you after graduation."

The next second, the carriage took off into the air, flying in the direction of Hogwarts with Kyle and Connor.

Grimmauld Place became smaller and smaller, and in just a few seconds, it was hidden among the gray clouds.

"Kyle, are you also a member of the Order of the Phoenix?" Kangna asked curiously in the car.

"That's right." Kyle thought for a while and said, "But I did not receive a formal invitation from Professor Dumbledore, so my status is the same as Harry's and others, and I can only be regarded as a non-staff member."

"That's already very good." Connor whispered: "The atmosphere there is really good, Mrs. Weasley is very nice, everyone is like a family... Can I join?"

"It doesn't matter what I said." Kyle said, "It only requires Professor Snape's nod. But judging from his previous behavior of wanting to send you to Beauxbatons, there is a high probability that he will not agree to your joining the Order of the Phoenix." of."

"That's true." Kangna sighed, "There's nothing we can do about it. We can only wait until graduation to see if we can make him change his mind."

"Actually, they're all the same." Kyle said nonchalantly: "The so-called Order of the Phoenix, to put it bluntly, is just a name. It's the same as Auror, Striker, and DA.

"If you like the atmosphere of everyone being together, you can definitely move to St. Catchpol Village when the time comes. There is still a large open space next to my house and the Burrow, and it will be no problem even if we build another manor."

Connor tilted her head, "So, are you ready to become neighbors with Professor Snape?"

"If he agrees..." Kyle said with a smile.

In this way, Kyle and Kangna chatted while admiring the scenery passing by under the carriage. When they were bored, they read the "Daily Prophet" from Diagon Alley.

When the sky gradually became dark, they finally caught up with the bright red Hogwarts Express and arrived at the school one step ahead.

"Thank you for your hard work." Kyle touched the Thestral's wings, and then took out a fresh warthog leg and fed it to it.

Ever since there were more and more magical animals around him, Kyle had always kept these things in his box. They were not expensive anyway, and there were discounts for buying more.

"Fortunately, I went to Nico's manor this holiday." Kyle said somewhat thankfully as the two climbed up the steps outside the castle.

"Why did you say that suddenly?" Kang Na asked doubtfully.

"Look at this..." Kyle handed over the newspaper in his hand.

During this period, the Ministry of Magic has not achieved any outstanding results on the Death Eater matter, and Fudge's reputation has been getting worse and worse recently.

In order to reverse this situation, he came to Hogwarts several times during the holidays, seeming to want to repeat his old tricks and reveal to the outside world an image that he and Dumbledore had an irreversible relationship.

Unfortunately, Dumbledore was not at school this holiday either, and he ran away several times in vain.

There were pictures of him around the castle on the front page of the newspaper, and there were several more.

Rita Skeeter unabashedly exposed his thoughts in the report.

As a professional, she knows very well what people like to see most now...without a doubt, it must be scolding ministers who do nothing.

The article also mentioned that since September, the Ministry of Magic has not taken any substantive action.

Kyle could imagine that if he had stayed at school instead of going to Nico's place, he would have been very busy.

At least Fudge would definitely look for himself if he couldn't find Dumbledore.

Seriously, Kyle would rather lie on a folding chair and bask in the sun than waste time on something as boring as restoring Fudge's reputation.

The two climbed the stairs and came to the castle's oak door.

Filch was already guarding here. As usual, he took the dark magic item detector and walked around Kyle and Connor several times. After confirming that there was no problem, he signaled that they could enter the castle. .

"Fred is right, this kind of check is useless." Connor took out a square box from her pocket, and all the gadgets she bought from Weasley's joke shop were in it. .

But when the instrument scanned just now, there was no movement.

"Don't say that, it's just that you didn't bring any dark magic items." Kyle glanced behind him, "And not everyone can use the Traceless Stretching Spell."

The two returned to the common room.

Although the train has not arrived yet, the common room is still very lively because most people have chosen to stay in school.

Kyle and Connor walked over to an empty table and sat down.

"Kyle, how was your Christmas?" Ryan, who was playing wizard chess, raised his head and asked.

"Not bad." Kyle said, "What about you, did you have anything going on at school?"

"Does it count that the Fat Lady drank a large barrel of five-hundred-year-old wine?" Ryan said. "She and her friend, I think their name is Violet... they drank all the wine from the portrait of the drunken monk next to the corridor of the Charms classroom. Finished."

"That was really a disaster..." Mikel said with lingering fear. "They kept going back and forth to each portrait, and their howling singing lasted until two o'clock in the morning."

"The whole school was so disturbed that they couldn't sleep."

"I really hope those drunken monks can hide their wine in a safer place and never find it again."

Speaking of this, everyone immediately started to complain, obviously they were also tortured a lot.

It is no secret at Hogwarts that the Fat Lady likes to drink. Gryffindor students often complained that the Fat Lady would force everyone to listen to her singing when she drank, and would only open the common room after listening. room door.

But they never expected that this habit would spread to people from other colleges.

All I can say is that the Gryffindor students suffered... and had to endure it for seven years.

However, some people said that Professor McGonagall had warned the Fat Lady and that she had changed the Gryffindor password to "Quit drinking" overnight.

As for whether this matter is true or false, no one knows. After all, they will not go to the eighth floor to test whether the password is correct.

Other than that, there's nothing special about it.

It's still a while before the school dinner. Kangna wants to read a book for a while, while Kyle decides to go to the principal's office.

He wanted to ask Dumbledore about the time-turner.

But when he reached the eighth floor, he discovered that Dumbledore had gone out again and was not in the school at all. In the principal's office were only the previous principals who were pretending to sleep.

"What's the matter with you?" a wizard asked, as if he was used to Kyle's sudden appearance.

"Dumbledore is at the Ministry of Magic right now. If there is anything urgent, I can call him for you."

"Thank you, Principal Everard, but no need." Kyle said, "I don't have anything important to do. I'll just wait until the professor comes back."

"Oh well."

Kyle nodded and left the principal's office.
