Chapter 373
The process of getting the crown was smooth, but then Kyle didn't know what to do.
For a long time, every time he was about to study the crown, he ended up staring at it in a daze.
Now that this thing has become Voldemort's Horcrux, even if Rowena Ravenclaw hides any information in it, it is impossible to see it.
Or, try it on?
Kyle raised the crown, and after gesturing on top of his head for a while, he still gave up on this somewhat desperate decision.
Still nothing this time.
……
When Kyle put the box back and returned to the common room, he happened to meet Connor who was looking for him.
"Class is about to start, I thought you had already gone first."
"No, it's just something else." Kyle shook his head, took out a stack of textbooks and asked, "What class is next?"
"Defense Against the Dark Arts..." Connor said with a little expectation.
Since changing professors, not having to read textbooks and act in stage plays, Defense Against the Dark Arts has suddenly become more interesting, and at the same time it has become a favorite subject for most people.
Except for a few Slytherins, like Malfoy...
His ideas were pure, as long as Harry liked it, he hated it, that's all.
But he was just making fun of Professor Lupine's shabby clothes, with only a decent robe, not that his lectures were not interesting.
"I don't know what we'll learn today." Walking on the road, Connor said, "We've already learned about the Witchbird and the Leprechaun, and the next one should be a new magical creature."
"It would be great if he could teach us how to deal with dementors." She said with some hope: "On the way to the herbal medicine class yesterday, I just glanced at them from a distance and felt chills all over my body."
"Professor Lupine probably won't teach these." Kyle shook his head and said, "But if you want to learn, I can teach you the Patronus Charm."
"Is that the spell you used on the train?" Connor asked.
"That's right." Kyle said, "The Patronus Charm is also recognized by the magic world. It is the most effective way to deal with dementors. How about it? Do you want to learn it?"
"Okay..." Kang Na said without any hesitation.
Kyle raised his eyebrows, "Then you call me Professor Kyle, and I will teach you."
"You have a good idea!" Connor kicked Kyle's calf angrily, and turned her head to give him the back of his head.
The two came together to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom.
But unexpectedly, it was not Professor Lupine who was waiting here, but Snape.
He noticed Kang Na's puffy look, and looked at Kyle again. He didn't know what to think of, and his face darkened instantly.
Kyle quickly put away his smile, lowered his head, walked into the classroom silently and sat down under Snape's murderous gaze.
Connor also came and sat next to him.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but since she sat down, Kyle always felt chilly on her neck.
Fortunately, not long after, the bell for class rang.
Snape strode to the front, turned to face everyone, and said in his usual tone:
"Unfortunately, your Professor Lupine is not feeling well today and cannot come to class, so I will help substitute for the class."
"What happened to him?" Someone asked with concern.
"You need to raise your hand to ask questions in class, five points will be deducted from Ravenclaw!" Snape gave the student who spoke coldly, and the student shut up in shock.
"It's not life-threatening." Snape's tone seemed a bit regretful, "Also, if anyone speaks without permission, ten points will be deducted."
The classroom was quiet, even the sound of breathing was much quieter.
"Professor Lupine didn't leave any records of what you've learned..." Snape continued, "I have to say, this kind of teaching that lacks structure is too amateurish."
"Professor Lu Ping's teaching is very good..." Someone couldn't help muttering in a low voice, and other students also expressed their agreement.
"That's because you are too easy to satisfy... I think first-year students should be able to deal with leprechauns... Another ten points from Ravenclaw."
The classroom fell silent again.
"Let's learn something different today!" said Snape in a calm voice. "Everyone turn to page 394!"
Although everyone felt a little baffled, because of Snape's reputation, they could only mutter in low voices while opening their textbooks.
"Werewolves!" said Snape, "can any of you tell me how to tell the difference between a werewolf and a real wolf?"
Several students raised their hands.
"Miss Prince!"
Kang Na stood up, "There are a few small differences between a werewolf and a real wolf. The snout of a werewolf will be slightly shorter, and the pupils will be smaller..."
"Very well, ten points for Hufflepuff."
Snape nodded in satisfaction, and then continued to ask: "Werewolves usually look no different from ordinary people, except for one thing, who can tell me what it is."
A few more people raised their hands, and this time he chose Qiu.
"Werewolves only turn into wolves when the moon is full."
"Not comprehensive." Snape waved his hand and asked her to sit down, without any intention of adding any points, "In fact, they will also become very weak during the days before and after the full moon night.
What are you still doing, why don't you write them all down. "
There was a sudden rustling of quills and parchment in the classroom.
"Turn the book to page 395 for a more detailed explanation..."
In the rest of the class, Snape didn't ask any more questions, just let everyone sit there and copy notes about werewolves from the book.
He himself walked back and forth between the desks to make sure that everyone's memorization was complete enough.
The students seem to have returned to the days when they copied the secretary's notes in every class two years ago.
The bell finally rang, but Snape didn't let them go.
"Everyone write a paper to me on how to identify and kill werewolves. I ask you to fill two rolls of parchment and hand it in on Monday morning."
Everyone quickly left the classroom together, with Kyle at the front.
For the entire class just now, he sat there without saying a word, trying to reduce his sense of existence as much as possible.
Kyle had a hunch that if he said a wrong sentence just now, or was caught by Snape, the consequences would definitely be much more serious than others.
Fortunately, it was finally time to finish class.
Kyle was the first to walk out of the classroom, and the others followed. When they got out of Snape's hearing, everyone began to chatter.
"Oh my god, two rolls of parchment." Mikkel complained, "That's enough for me to write my Defense Against the Dark Arts homework five times."
"Even if it's the homework of the Transfiguration class, you can write it three times." Ryan added next to him: "I really hope that Professor Lu Ping will get better soon, so that we may not have to write this paper again."
Kyle didn't participate in their discussion, but walked down the stairs at a faster pace.
It wasn't until he returned to the common room and the wooden barrel door behind him slowly closed that the feeling of being on his back gradually disappeared.
