Chapter 414 Lu Ping’s Scandal

The weather is gradually getting warmer, and as soon as the ice and snow outside the castle melts, the little wizards can't wait to stuff their thick winter robes into the wardrobe.

It is worth mentioning that due to some special reasons, the Patronus Charm study was not organized in February.

Professor Luping is too busy. In addition to regular classes, at other times... whether it is after the last class every afternoon or on weekends, you will never see his shadow in the school.

He ran to Hogsmeade almost whenever he had some spare time.

Gradually, some rumors began to spread in the castle.

Someone swears that Professor Lupine is pursuing Madam Rosmerta from The Three Broomsticks.

Although there is no definite evidence, this statement is recognized by most students.

Think about it, Hogsmeade is only so big, there are only about a dozen shops at the end of the day. Going there once in a while is really refreshing, but once you go there too many times, you will feel bored.

If it wasn't to meet someone, how could Professor Lupine be so active? He would leave the castle from one to five o'clock every day, and then come back after curfew... Probably, since no one had ever seen him before curfew time.

Especially on weekends, you won’t see anyone all day long.

As a result, the gossip about Professor Lupine and Ms. Rosmerta began to spread wildly in the castle, as well as the clerk at the Literary Mansion...Ms. Andel of the Owl Post Office...Mrs. Puddifu's brother-in-law...the owner of the Pig's Head Bar...various versions stories, covering all the shops in Hogsmeade.

Susan Burns even used these as her own bedtime stories and couldn't sleep without listening to a new version every day.

She even summarized them and bound them into a thick book. Many people came to her to borrow them every day, but few could borrow them.

Susan treasured the book and almost never left it.

Someone thought they had discovered a business opportunity, so early that morning, Fred and George went out of their way to find Kyle.

"Katie asked us to ask," Fred said. "She also collected a booklet like this and wanted to collaborate with us."

"Cooperation? What do you mean?" Kyle asked.

"She is the one who provides this kind of booklet, and we are responsible for copying and selling it..." Fred explained: "In the end, we divided the accounts into thirty-seven."

Kyle raised his eyebrows, "We copied it and sold it, and finally we got 70%?"

"Seventy percent is hers, and three percent is ours."

George said, "But don't worry, we will definitely not agree... But she said her bottom line is five to five, and no more."

"We have done some research, and if this deal goes well, we can get at least thirty galleons..." Fred added.

"How about it……"

"Want to come together?"

Fred and George picked up a cookie from the table and ate it while looking at Kyle.

"It's impossible for me to participate anyway." Kyle said calmly, holding a book.

Not to mention that they could all get thirty galleons in total, even if each of them got thirty galleons, Kyle wouldn't agree to it.

What can I do with this little money, but send house elves away?

"And I have to remind you."

Kyle continued: “If you still want to go to Hogsmeade outside of visiting days, it’s best not to agree.

Otherwise, I can guarantee that as soon as you step foot into Hogsmeade, Professor McGonagall will receive the message the next second, and you will not be able to run away by then. "

Connor and Cedric on the side also nodded. They had the same idea as Kyle.

"Well... you're right." Fred shrugged.

"And that's what we thought," George said.

"But who made us teammates... No matter what, we have to ask."

"This is just right..."

"If you don't agree, it's none of our business..."

"Who told us that there are fewer people?"

In Kyle's speechless eyes, the two of them finished the last piece of bread on the plate with a smile, then put on a regretful expression and turned around and walked towards the Gryffindor table.

Katie Bell had finished her breakfast and was waiting for them.

"It's a pity..." Fred shook his head and sighed: "They all have other things to do, and they may not have much time recently..."

"We also want to help..."

The two of them sat next to each other and gave out the excuses they had thought of for a long time...

On the other side, after Fred and George left, Kyle also finished breakfast, got up and walked towards the library.

He borrowed a book a few days ago and just finished reading it yesterday.

Connor and Cho went to Hagrid's place.

The success of the first class gave Hagrid a lot of confidence. He no longer wanted to show animals with fangs and sharp mouths, but instead showed cubs of various magical animals.

In addition to the unicorn at the beginning, he also brought in Little Sniff and Little Kitten... The response was very good.

The students gradually recognized him as the new professor. Of course, there were exceptions, such as some people from Slytherin.

Hagrid was quite concerned about their mocking words at first, but as he gradually got used to them, he chose to ignore them.

Last night, Hagrid sent them a note, saying that he had found some new magical animal cubs, and asked them if they wanted to see them.

Kangna and Qiu agreed without thinking, and even woke up early today.

If it weren't for Hagrid's craftsmanship that they couldn't praise, they wouldn't even have planned to come to the Great Hall for breakfast.

Cedric went with him.

But for Kyle, he has seen a lot of cubs of magical animals... He even helped deliver a litter of poisonous leopards two years ago.

So in comparison, it is more important to return the book.

After arriving at the library, Mrs. Pince was still sitting in her original position, cleaning the dust on the table.

Kyle placed the copy of "The Great Potion" on the table.

He borrowed this to search for the wolfsbane potion, and he just finished reading it yesterday.

Mrs. Pince picked it up and checked it as usual. After making sure there was no damage, she took it and walked towards a shelf in the distance.

Kyle didn't borrow any other books, maybe because it was invented a few years ago. There were too few records about the Wolfsbane potion. The most detailed ones only included the materials that needed to be used and what to put in them. It's just the order of the crucibles, nothing else.

After Mrs. Pince left, Kyle turned around and prepared to find Kangna and the others.

But at this moment, he suddenly noticed the two thick stacks of books on the table next to him.

The books were piled high and shaky, as if they would collapse if touched slightly. Through the gap in the middle, Kyle could vaguely see a piece of messy hair, which was Hermione.

Seemingly noticing Kyle's gaze, Hermione also raised her head. She looked tired, and there were thick dark circles under her eyes.
