Chapter 27 The First Class
Although Kyle never had to worry about delivering letters, at Hogwarts, it is better to have an owl of his own.
Because in a sense, owls and Muggle world phone numbers are the same, and they usually represent the identity of the owner.
This point is quite important.
To give a simple example, Kyle's mother, Diana, works in the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic. The management of this department is very strict. Except for special circumstances, the letters sent usually need to be screened layer by layer.
From the owl's identity, attribution, status...to the sender's name, identity, affiliation, and finally to checking whether there are special substances and curses on the letter.
These letters will not be sent to the Department of Mysteries in the form of paper airplanes until it is confirmed that there is no problem.
This is the rule, even the letter sent by Kyle is no exception, at most the process goes faster.
With the efficiency of the Ministry of Magic, it will take at least a day for this whole process to be completed.
But with Raton it was different.
Diana can apply for it as a special owl. While the letters are prioritized, the screening process can also be greatly simplified. You only need to check the status of the owl, the name of the sender, and whether there is a curse on the letter, and it can be done on the spot.
At platform 9, Diana specifically told him this, asking him to try to choose the same owl when sending letters in the future, and if he couldn't, he could go to Diagon Alley to buy one.
Of course, it is definitely impossible to buy it. How could Kyle spend such a waste of money? Doesn’t he have Raton now?
Perfect solution.
Kyle took out some owl nuts from the deformed lizard skin bag that he carried, and several bags of dried Mortella rat meat, and pushed them in front of the owls together with the chestnuts in his hand.
After that, I found some water, poured two bottles of owl tonic into it, stirred it well, and poured it into a stone trough next to it.
These are hard expenses, and they can't let them lose the feathers of this place in vain.
While the owls were eating, Kyle took Raton back to the castle, and then went straight to Hufflepuff's common room.
Go through the barrels in the kitchen hallway, back to the dormitory...
Mikel and Ryan are not here, so they should go to the classroom.
Kyle didn't think much about it, and placed Raton on the shelf next to his bed, took his textbooks, and left.
In the common room, Kyle happened to meet Cedric who was also about to go out.
"Kyle, I'm going to find you." Cedric walked over quickly and said, "What's your first class?"
"Spells." Kyle shook the "Standard Spells, Elementary" in his hand and asked, "What do you want from me?"
"By the way, this is for you." Cedric handed a piece of parchment to Kyle:
"This is a map of Hogwarts given to me by a prefect when I first entered school. It clearly marked the location of the classrooms and the changing rules of the stairs.
But I don't need it now, so it's just right to give it to you. "
Hogwarts is good everywhere, but it is too big, and the interior is even more intricate, like a big maze. Basically, all the little wizards who have just entered school do not get lost, and it is commonplace to be late.
Fortunately, the professors also knew what was going on. Except for a certain dean, the other professors turned a blind eye to this, or asked verbally, or deducted a point symbolically, and did not give up. Not too fussy.
Kyle took the parchment and looked at it carefully.
It is a very ordinary map, but the content is very detailed. It not only clearly marks all the routes from the Hufflepuff common room to each classroom, but also specifically indicates where the stairs need to turn before they can go.
It's a low-end version of the Marauder's map, but it's good enough for Kyle.
"Thank you, I really need this." Kyle put away the map and said, "By the way, what is your first class?"
"I'm potion... wait, potion!"
Cedric was startled suddenly, and then ran away: "I'll leave Kyle first, remember, the last thing you can't be late at Hogwarts is Potions class, you must remember..."
Cedric's voice became smaller and smaller, and soon disappeared at the end of the passage.
From his performance, it is not difficult to see that Snape should have left him with a deep psychological shadow...or he has left a lot of psychological shadows for young wizards.
Kyle guessed that he couldn't run away either.
"It's a pity, if only Harry Potter could enter school a year earlier."
Kyle shook his head, and then left the common room.
……
The Charms classroom is on the third floor, and you can easily find it along the map.
Pushing open the door, the first thing you see is a stack of books piled up like stairs, and there are four portraits of unknown characters hanging on the wall in front of you.
It is estimated that they are some relatively famous wizards, but Kyle doesn't know any of them.
On the walls on both sides, there are signs of the four colleges, and there are a few long tables below.
When Kyle got here, there were still 5 minutes before the class time.
To be honest, it was not too early at this point, but there were not many people in the classroom, not even Professor Flitwick.
Kyle found a seat and sat down.
Sitting opposite him were a few little wizards from Ravenclaw, and the people from the two colleges, one on the left and the other on the right, were clearly separated.
As nine o'clock approached, little wizards came in one after another panting through the door.
Kyle also saw Connor, but unfortunately the little witch didn't pay attention to him at all, and passed in front of him angrily.
At 59:[-], Mikel and Ryan also got stuck.
"Thank God, it's a good thing I'm not late."
Mikel began to gasp after sitting down, and at the same time vomited bitterness to Kyle.
"We're lost."
"My God, Hogwarts is a maze. We were supposed to go up to the third floor, but when we were on the second floor, the staircase suddenly changed its position. After we went up, we somehow ended up on the fifth floor."
"Later we started to go down again, but after walking for a long time, we found that we were still on the fifth floor."
"I finally got down, but I went back to the second floor... You know Kyle, we climbed the stairs for three to ten minutes, and my leg almost broke!"
The more Mikel talked, the more wronged he was, and he was about to cry.
"Wait a minute, it's a little messy, let me take it easy." Kyle rubbed his forehead, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure out why the two of them were still standing still when they walked down.
Even if you are a road idiot, you must be able to distinguish between up and down.
Spinning around in situ has touched the realm of metaphysics, which is not the same way as magic.
And there is no record on the map that Cedric gave him.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this." Kyle, who really couldn't figure it out, decided to give up, and turned around and asked, "Then how did you find this place in the end?"
"It was brought here." Mikkel blushed, pointed to the opposite side and said, "We met a Ravenclaw freshman on the fifth floor, she pulled us down from the spiral staircase, and Ask if we're going to Charms, and if so come with her."
Kyle glanced subconsciously, only to realize that Mikkel was referring to Ravenclaw's Qiu Zhang.
