Chapter 750: Makeup Lessons (Page 12)
Although Kyle felt it was unnecessary, Dumbledore returned the gold cup as promised three days later.
When Kyle found Harry with a bottle of mead, he was in the library and almost covered in books.
With him were Ron and Hermione.
There were several thick "walls of books" stacked in front of the three of them, completely blocking them. If the Marauder's Map hadn't shown that Harry was in the library, Kyle almost didn't find him.
It's hard to imagine when he and Ron became so fond of reading.
"This is what you want."
Kyle walked over to sit across from them, and when Mrs. Pince wasn't paying attention, he stuffed a bottle of mead into the gap between the book walls.
"Thank you." Harry raised his head and said.
Only then did Kyle discover that there were obvious dark circles around his eyes.
"How long have you been here?" he asked subconsciously.
"Three days." Ron yawned and muttered: "Except for classes, we almost live in the library."
He casually picked up a book next to him, flipped through it quickly and put it on the other side.
"Are you looking for something?" Kyle said, "Do you need help?"
"No, no need."
"We can just find it ourselves."
……
Harry and Ron spoke almost simultaneously.
Not sure if it was an illusion, but Kyle always felt like they were hiding something and didn't want him to know.
But he wasn't that curious either. Seeing that the three of them didn't want to talk, he didn't ask any more questions. After handing the things to Harry, he got up and left the library.
At the same time, Harry and the other three were kicked out of the library by Mrs. Pince after a minute because they subconsciously shouted too loudly.
"It's all your fault!" Hermione said angrily, "We won't be able to enter the library for at least two days."
"What does this have to do with anything?" Ron looked quite happy. "We have been searching for three days, but we found nothing. I have already told you that there are no swords or lockets in the library. clues, it’s just a waste of time.”
Harry had the same idea. If Hermione hadn't insisted, he would have given up yesterday.
And if you think about it carefully, if the things left by the Big Four can be found in books, why did Voldemort have to work at Borgin-Bock for so long just for a Hufflepuff Gold Cup.
"Do you have any better ideas besides looking for clues in the library?"
Seeing both of them saying this, Hermione glared at them angrily, "If so, I don't mind listening to you, but don't tell me that you want to search in every room in the school. I don't want to do it. That’s such a stupid thing to do.”
With that, Hermione stormed off.
"What is she angry about?" Ron didn't understand. "We didn't say that, right?"
"I think she was just angry that she couldn't go to the library for two days." Harry whispered.
"Maybe." Ron curled his lips, turned to look at the bottle held by Harry and asked, "What is this?"
"It's mead..." Harry said, "Oops, I just forgot to give Kyle the money."
"Wine?" Ron frowned. "Don't you always like to drink butterbeer? When did you turn into mead? Besides, you don't seem to be an adult yet."
"Yeah, still a few months away," Harry said.
"But it's not for me to drink. It's for Slughorn. He likes mead. Maybe I can use this to get his memory."
"You want to get him drunk?" Ron touched his chin, "That's a good idea. When are you going to go, now?"
"I don't know." Harry shook his head, "I need a chance."
While the two were discussing, they walked towards the common room. They had been reading books in the library for three consecutive days. Their previous enthusiasm for searching for Horcruxes had been worn out, and now they just wanted to go back and have a good sleep. Sleep.
……
Harry said he would look for an opportunity, and then waited for more than a week.
Mainly because he wanted to wait for a time when there was no one else before taking action. For example, there was a dinner party every few days before, but he forgot that since the last time he asked questions related to Horcruxes, Slug now He was no longer invited to the dinner party hosted by Horn.
Also not invited was Kyle, but this was exactly what Kyle wanted to see. After all, he didn't need to ask anything from Slughorn.
After entering April, the weather gradually became warmer.
In order to cope with the upcoming NEWT exam, there are very few seventh-grade students in the castle. Most of them stay in the library or practice magic in empty classrooms.
Even Mikel has missed two Quidditch training sessions in a row.
His spells and transformation are weak points. According to Professor McGonagall, if he doesn't practice them, he will most likely not be able to get the certificate in these two subjects.
Transfiguration and Charms are the two most important courses, and are required for many jobs.
Although this does not include the professional batsman Mikel wants to become, he is also very clear that his talent in Quidditch is not amazing, so it is impossible to completely give up these two certificates.
If there's anyone in the entire seventh grade who has the most leisure time, it's probably Kyle.
While everyone was working hard to get more certificates, he was the only one who was feeling idle.
Every day he either spent time in the common room or ran to the edge of the Forbidden Forest to find Hagrid.
"Listen to me, Kyle, you can't be so idle. This is the sixth time you've come to my place this week."
Finally one day, even Hagrid couldn't help it anymore and said after careful consideration: "Of course, I don't welcome you, but the exam is coming soon, don't you have to read a book? After all, even Harry has started to read. "
"Reading?" Kyle didn't even use his wand. He just pointed a finger and made the teapot float on the stove, pouring two cups of scalding tea.
The whole process was incredibly smooth, as if there was an invisible person holding the teapot.
"Okay... just pretend I didn't say that." Hagrid decisively shut his mouth.
I have to admit that with Kyle's current ability, he can fully cope with the NEWT exam. It seems that he really doesn't need to read a book.
But as a professor, there are some things he must say.
"Where's Kangna? Why haven't I seen her recently?" Hagrid changed the subject, "You guys didn't have a fight, right? Let me tell you, she is a good girl, you..."
"Quarrel? How is that possible?" Kyle interrupted Hagrid, shook his head and said, "She has recently become obsessed with ancient potions. She stays next to the crucible almost every day and refuses to let me help."
This is also the main reason why Kyle has nothing to do.
Although Kyle repeatedly said that learning ancient potions was of little significance because that kind of thing was not suitable for today's wizards, Connor discovered new fun in it.
So, she decisively abandoned Kyle and went to the underground classroom.
