Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard

After the opening party, Dumbledore came back to give Harry a weekly memory lesson.

But after Kyle received the news from the portrait and went to find him, he had already finished the course and left the school again. Only Harry was left in the office, who had just finished reading a memory and had not yet fully recovered.

"Kyle, are you also here to see Professor Dumbledore?" Harry said: "He just received a message from the fireplace, saying that the Dark Mark appeared somewhere, and then he hurried over."

"Ah, it doesn't matter." Kyle said, "I don't have anything important to do with him anyway. Let's talk about it when I have time."

After running in vain twice in a row, Kyle was not so concerned at first. Anyway, he had the time turner in his hands, and Dumbledore would naturally come to him if needed.

After that, the two left the principal's office at the same time.

When he came to the corridor outside, Harry turned to look at Kyle next to him, and the corners of his mouth moved, "Kyle, you..."

But when he said this, he suddenly shut his mouth again.

"What's wrong?" Kyle asked confused.

"No, it's nothing." Harry shook his head.

Because Dumbledore had something to do and left early after reading his memories, Harry had accumulated a lot of doubts and he needed to find someone to talk to and share...

Kyle is indeed a good choice. He is smart, knows a lot, and is even personally involved in several secret plans.

But it is precisely for this reason that it is difficult for Harry to treat him as a peer. He would rather discuss this with Ron or Hermione.

"That's right..." In order not to arouse Kyle's suspicion, Harry quickly said: "I just want to ask you, is it easy to learn Apparition? We can learn this magic on Saturday.

"Originally Sirius said he would teach us, but he left school not long after school started, and he hasn't found any time yet."

"It's not difficult." Kyle glanced at him and said, "And there is a little trick to this magic. If you can be revealed once with a follower before learning, it will be much easier after that."

"If you put it that way, Professor Dumbledore actually took me once to...well, follow me to reveal myself."

Harry said, "It was the night I went to see Professor Slughorn, but it was an uncomfortable experience. I felt like a stuffed toy stuffed into a washing machine."

"This is normal. You'll get better as you get used to it." Kyle said. "Besides, if you have experienced something more exciting, you will definitely feel that there is nothing wrong with being a stuffed toy."

"More exciting?" Harry asked doubtfully, "What do you mean, doesn't everyone's Apparition differ?"

"It's not a human, it's a phoenix." Kyle glanced behind him with lingering fear.

He dared to say that everyone who was carried by the phoenix could easily master this magic when learning to apparate.

It’s just that not many people have this opportunity.

Harry had never had this experience either, so it was difficult for him to understand what Kyle meant.

The topic seemed to have stagnated at this point. Fortunately, they had already arrived near the Gryffindor common room.

Harry glanced at the huge portrait of the Fat Lady and breathed a sigh of relief.

"See you tomorrow, Kyle."

"See you tomorrow."

After Harry left, Kyle also went downstairs from the other direction.

…

The day after the holidays, there was a heavy snowfall at Hogwarts, and a thick layer of snow accumulated on the grounds overnight, almost five inches thick.

A group of first-year wizards had to walk hard through the snow because they had to take herbal medicine classes in the greenhouse.

And the same goes for students who go to Care of Magical Creatures classes.

At the edge of the Forbidden Forest, Hagrid looked absent-minded. He got a batch of moon-crazed beasts from the empty pumpkin patch.

The other party's unique appearance quickly captured the hearts of the students, and they gathered around him one after another.

"I can't believe it," Connor whispered, "that Hagrid would show Moonstruck in his seventh grade class instead of some other creature with fangs and claws."

"Yeah." Kyle nodded in agreement.

It's no secret at Hogwarts that Hagrid likes less friendly-looking creatures.

It's okay for students under fifth grade. Because of their age, Hagrid can only find magical animals below XXX level when teaching them. But it's different for students in sixth and seventh grade.

The scope of the exam is very large, and there are not so many restrictions on the course content. They have recently turned the Care of Magical Creatures class into a "Comprehensive Collection of Ferocious Magical Creatures."

Last time it was the scorpion-tailed monkey... Last time it was the Megalodon... To be honest, even Kyle was curious about where Hagrid found these. At the same time, he had to sigh that there are so many species in the Forbidden Forest. ah.

Now that Hagrid had suddenly acquired such a harmless thing as the Moon Crazy Beast, Kyle was not used to it for a while.

"He couldn't have been controlled by someone using the Imperius Curse, right?" Ryan on the side whispered, obviously thinking about them.

"Although I think so too, it's probably not the case." Kyle said, "If you want to control Hagrid, this is only possible if the Imperius Curse is released by the mysterious man himself."

"Then why did he suddenly become so strange?"

"I don't know... maybe it's more convenient to prepare the Moon Chi Beast." Kyle said.

They walked through the thick snow to the pumpkin patch. As they got closer, he noticed that Hagrid looked absent-minded and not as enthusiastic as he had been in class before.

After seeing everyone arrived, he simply said a few words, gave each person a cabbage, and asked the students to try to feed the Moon Chime Beast.

However, no one felt dissatisfied. On the contrary, everyone was very happy, especially the girls. From the first moment they saw the Moon Chi Beast, they wanted to do this.

Hagrid's unusual behavior actually improved his favorability among students.

"Kyle, do you have time now?" Just when Kyle was about to get the cabbage in the basket, Hagrid suddenly came over and said in a low voice.

"You're the professor of this class, Hagrid." Kyle shrugged, "If you think I have time, that's fine."

"That's right..." Hagrid took Kyle further away and said in a low voice, "Do you still have the spider tonic you gave me before?"

"What?" Kyle didn't realize what Hagrid said for a moment, and it wasn't until he repeated it again that he finally remembered.

He had indeed brewed a spider tonic before, and even bought a large bottle of Acromantula venom from Hagrid's pit... well.

"I was totally lost," Kyle said. "But that stuff isn't too complicated. I can always get a few more bottles if you need it."

"That's great." Hagrid breathed a sigh of relief, "Just... can you hurry up, Aragog is too old, I should have come to you earlier.

"Oh, by the way, I can pay the reward, and the venom you need, I can give it to you in the afternoon."

Hagrid was so nervous that he didn't even notice that he had let something slip. When he asked Kyle for spider tonic before, he used it as an excuse to give it to a friend, but now he directly called out Aragog's name.

This is an Acromantula he kept in the Forbidden Forest. Counting the time, it must have been almost sixty years.

Kyle has also dealt with it. It is a very talkative spider, and the two parties got along very happily...at least Kyle found it very pleasant.

"It doesn't matter what the reward is." Kyle waved his hand and said, "I didn't use up the spider venom last time, so I don't need to take any more."

Today is different from the past. Because of Aragog's generosity, he had already achieved freedom from spider venom. Now there are several bottles in the box, and they are all big pint bottles.

I originally wanted to sell it for some galleons, but I never found the opportunity, and now I can use it.

In addition, Kyle really wanted to help Aragog. After all, he wanted to harvest another wave of venom before graduation, so it was appropriate to help get some tonics.

"Forget it." Kyle glanced at the students gathered in the pumpkin patch. "There's still some time until get out of class ends. If we start now, I should be able to give it to you when get out of class is over. I'll find a place first..."

"No need to look for it." Hagrid stopped Kyle, "You can go to my cabin. It's warm there and no one can disturb you."

"Okay." Kyle nodded, turned around and walked into the wooden house next to him.

The fire was burning brightly in the room, and as soon as I opened the door, a wave of heat rushed over me.

But such a hot stove would definitely not work, so Kyle could only change a smaller heating stove next to it and set up a crucible on it.

And Hagrid was standing at the door, guarding the door while peeking in from the window from time to time.

It went on like this until thirty minutes later, when get out of class was over, Kyle just came out of the cabin and handed him a large bottle of blue tonic.

"Three months of these should be enough."

"Thank you, Kyle." Hagrid said happily, took the bottle and ran into the Forbidden Forest.

"What's wrong with him?" Kangna came over and asked curiously: "What did you give him, a magic potion?"

"It's spider tonic." Kyle said, "Hagrid raised a group of Acromantulas in the Forbidden Forest."

When she heard the name Acromantula, Kangna's expression suddenly changed... Even Kyle couldn't accept a spider as big as a car, let alone Kangna, a witch.

"You can also brew spider tonic?" She looked at Kyle incredulously.

"There's nothing you can do about it. Who makes their venom so valuable?" Kyle shrugged, "Don't tell Professor Snape, otherwise I won't be able to share the venom."

"Isn't that Hagrid's?" Connor asked.

"There is no conflict." Kyle put away the empty crucible and walked out of the cabin. "If the spiders voluntarily gave it to me, I can't refuse it."

Kangna curled her lips, not believing a word of what Kyle said.

Although she doesn't like Acromantula, she has learned a little about it because of the magic potion. That creature has a ferocious character and is extremely aggressive towards wizards.

Professor Snape also specifically reminded her that she could just buy some special potion ingredients directly and never think about saving money.

Acromantula venom is one of them.

But Kyle just smiled mysteriously and did not explain.

Of course he has his own tricks, but this method is not suitable for Kangna. He can do it by himself.

After leaving the wooden house, the two followed a long row of footprints on the field and returned to Hogwarts Castle.

When they came to the foyer, they happened to meet Hermione, Harry and Ron walking side by side from the direction of the stairs. The three of them seemed to have an argument.

"No one requires you to stay and help." Hermione looked at Ron with a hint of impatience in her tone, "But can you please stop making bad ideas?"

"bad idea?"

Ron screamed: "Am I right? Harry is Slughorn's little potion prince. As long as Harry asks, he will definitely not refuse."

"You think Professor Slughorn can't see that, isn't that Harry's true level?" Hermione became even more impatient, "And even Dumbledore can't get it. He must be determined to conceal the truth, and How would you tell a student.

"Horcrux... Horcrux... I have never heard of it. It must be a very advanced magic. I think it will be difficult to get this information. I must think of a strategy."

"Why do you need so much trouble? You just think too much!"

"It's better than you not thinking about anything." Hermione suddenly became furious.

"Why didn't I think about it..." Ron was also angry.

While the two were arguing, Harry stood by and watched them helplessly. It was obvious that he was used to this kind of quarrel.

Whenever he wanted to ask for some advice, the two would quarrel because of different opinions.

However, the three of them soon noticed Kyle and Kangna walking towards them. Whether it was out of confidentiality or something else, they changed the topic in a tacit understanding.

"Ron, this is the point of the Potions homework." Hermione's tone changed and she said slightly stiffly: "Remember to finish writing quickly. Professor Slughorn will check it in the next class. You can't do it again." Points will be deducted from Gryffindor for this."

"Yeah, that's right." Ron said equally stiffly, "But if you could lend me your homework..."

"Don't even think about it!"

Kyle shook his head slightly after listening to their words. He had to say that their ability to change the topic was really not very good.

The Horcrux that was the focus of Potions homework? How did they say this?

This is no longer a potions class, but a cram school set up by Voldemort.

But in order not to embarrass them too much, Kyle did not reveal anything. He walked over and said hello to them as if he hadn't heard anything, and then turned around and walked into the auditorium.

"Hermione, actually you don't have to be like this." After Kyle walked away, Harry whispered: "Kyle also knows about the Horcruxes. The last time Dumbledore showed me that memory, he Also here."

"What? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Hermione glared at Harry. Fortunately, she thought her change of topic was seamless just now, but now it turned into a joke.

"You didn't give me this chance either." Harry whispered.

He only noticed that Kyle was opposite when Hermione suddenly changed the subject. There was no time to remind Hermione.

However, Harry's explanation obviously did not satisfy Hermione. Her face turned red and she glared at him again angrily.

"Wait, Harry." At this time, Ron thought of something and said, "Since Kyle also knows about Horcruxes, why don't you ask him, he must know something."

"I, I can't say it." Harry shook his head and whispered: "I don't know what's going on... When facing Kyle, I always feel that I am in front of a professor, of course. , it’s just a feeling.”

"Really?" Ron blinked, "Why don't I think so."

"Maybe it's because I've seen him in the principal's office more times." Harry thought for a while, "You also know that few students can go there, right?

"But Kyle has been there many times, and even the previous principals know him."

"That would be easier." Ron said, "You don't have to ask, just ask Kyle to ask Slughorn about the Horcrux. In this way, the possibility of success will be greater." ”

Harry just shook his head and said nothing.

Reason told him that Ron was right. With Kyle's help, he probably wouldn't have to worry about this matter. Kyle must have a way to get Slughorn's real memory.

But from the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to do it, and Harry couldn't explain why. Maybe it was because this was the first time Dumbledore had given him a task, and he wanted to complete it by himself.

You can try Ron's method first...

Harry thought to himself.

Maybe he could ask Slughorn directly after the next Potions class. After all, he couldn't think of any better idea besides this.
