Chapter 168 A Thousand Parchments
Kyle has been busy since joining the Quidditch team.
He now has to attend classes during the day, go to the library to read books, and travel to the restricted area to copy books at night, so he managed to squeeze out some time and spend all of it on homework.
The homework for the second grade is much more than last year. The professors seem to have discussed it. Since last week, the length of their homework has changed from inches to feet.
Coupled with the Quidditch training three nights a week, it also took up a lot of his time.
Harris is very strict in this regard, and each training session will take at least three hours, and he will not be able to return until before the curfew.
However, after several consecutive trainings, the cooperation between Kyle and the players has become more and more tacit.
Just today, he and Harris have been able to skillfully use two-way offensive tactics.
This is a classic Quidditch tactic invented by the Wimbourne Hornets, which is an improved version of the Eagle Head attack formation.
The two chasers fly to the middle goal post at the same time, pass the ball frequently, and then quickly separate to the two sides after reaching the goal area, so as to disturb the goalkeeper's judgment.
After the training match, Kyle and Harris scored a total of [-] goals. The Hufflepuff goalkeeper was about to doubt his life, and was carried back to the dormitory by others with dull eyes.
"Cheer up, Philo, you are already one of the best goalkeepers in the school, think about it, if you can't catch the ball, no one else can catch it either!"
Harris lifted Ferro's right leg and said with a flushed face: "This year's Quidditch Cup will have our names engraved again, I promise!
"Haha... why hasn't November come yet, I can't wait to start the game."
A group of people returned to the castle in a mighty way, and Kyle followed them with his broomstick.
When they passed by the entrance of the auditorium, in the castle, they just met Fred and George who came down from the stairs.
The pockets on both of them were bulging, as if they were full of things.
After Harris and the others walked away, Cedric raised his eyebrows and asked in a low voice: "The curfew is coming soon, are you going out for a night tour?"
"No, we just came back from Hogsmeade, and we're going to the kitchen to get some supper." George patted his bulging pockets, and said with a smile, "I bought Zuko's latest product before they closed."
"You know, for our lovely brother." Fred blinked and handed a leather bag to Kyle.
"This is what you want."
"Thank you." Kyle reached out and took it.
Fred glanced at him and asked excitedly: "So, do you have any new money-making ideas recently? Tell us about it."
"What?" Kyle didn't understand what Fred meant.
He was so busy these days that he didn't even go to the flower garden, how could he have time to study new ideas for making money.
"Stop pretending, we have nothing to keep secret." George said dissatisfiedly, "If you didn't have a new idea, why did you buy so much parchment?"
"Don't say it's for making maps, the time to sell maps has already passed for almost a month."
Fred put his arms around Kyle's shoulders, showing an expression that I'm smart, don't try to fool me: "If you don't have new ideas, how can you buy a thousand sheets of parchment?"
"One thousand, the inventory of Wenrenju is almost not enough."
"Not enough stock?"
Kyle opened his deformed lizard skin bag, and soon saw piles of parchment inside, but it was not clear how many there were.
"Forget it, I'm not in a hurry to use it, it doesn't matter if it's less."
"It's almost not enough." Fred said with a smile: "There are 63 cards in here, and the extra ones are extra gifts."
"That's all. We helped Wenrenju advance the closing time by 10 minutes."
"Okay, after talking so much, you should tell us what the plan is."
Fred rubbed his chin and guessed self-consciously: "If the parchment is concerned, it must be a map about secret passages... Or are you going to provide homework answers for a fee?"
"neither!"
Kyle shook his head and said, "This is really just something I bought for myself."
"Don't be kidding, this is a thousand sheets of parchment, how can you use so much for homework.
Cedric, do you need a thousand sheets of parchment a semester? "
Cedric shook his head immediately.
To be honest, a thousand sheets of parchment were almost enough for him to last for seven years.
"I know it's hard for you to believe, but it's the truth."
Kyle thought for a while and said, "I've been transcribing something recently, and I need a lot of parchment, that's all."
Seeing Kyle's serious face, Fred and George are no longer as persistent as they were at the beginning.
"you sure?"
"Of course." Kyle shrugged: "And I can guarantee that if I lie to you, Cedric will start losing his hair this year."
"Hey, what does this have to do with me!"
Cedric glared at Kyle dissatisfied.
"Don't be so stingy." Kyle said indifferently: "Don't you believe me?"
"It's not the same thing!" Cedric said helplessly.
His father, Mr. Diggory, had hair problems, and he didn't want to be like that now.
After Kyle said that, Fred and George dispelled the last doubt in their hearts.
Yeah, Kyle has no reason to lie to them.
Both looked disappointed, turned dejectedly, and walked towards Gryffindor Tower.
Along the way, they were enthusiastically guessing about Kyle's new plan, and even got ready for a big fight.
In the end, it turned out that there was no so-called plan at all, and it was all their own sentimentality.
This sense of gap made the two of them a little unacceptable.
"You are in the wrong place." Cedric reminded: "You should go down to the kitchen."
"Thanks, but we suddenly feel less hungry now."
"And don't want to eat anything."
……
After the twins left, Cedric scratched his hair and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with them."
Kyle shook his head, "Who knows, maybe it's puberty."
"What period?"
"It's nothing, the curfew will be on soon, let's go back soon."
"Ok."
In the middle of the night, after Kyle waited for his roommate to fall asleep, he got up lightly and left the dormitory, and came to the library as usual.
Kyle went straight to the third shelf in the restricted area, opened the leather bag, took out the shorthand quill and a stack of parchment with ease, and placed them on the nearest table.
"Fluorescent flashes!"
Then Kyle lit his wand, took a carefully selected book, and sat beside him to flip through it.
