At this point, the smiles on Fred and George's faces suddenly disappeared.

Fred covered his face and said, "Let's not talk about this. We are still friends."

"Wood seems to have lent his brain to the troll." George shook his head and said dimly, "He actually thinks our little brother Ron has the same Quidditch talent as Charlie and wants to recruit him into the team."

"Merlin, let Ron be the seeker..." Fred seemed to have thought of something terrible. He shuddered and said, "If that's the case, we might as well just surrender. At least we don't have to make a fool of ourselves in front of everyone."

"Fortunately Professor McGonagall didn't agree."

"Harry Potter is more reliable than him."

…

Kyle looked at them thoughtfully... Could it be that these two people really have some gift for prophecy?

"Let's not talk about this." Fred stuffed a chicken leg into his mouth and said vaguely: "We plan to explore the fourth floor. Do you want to join us?"

Cedric frowned and said, "Are you talking about the room at the corner of the corridor on the fourth floor?"

Fred blinked.

"Besides that, is there anywhere else on the fourth floor worth exploring?"

"But..." Cedric hesitated, "Didn't Headmaster Dumbledore say that we are not allowed to go there?"

"Don't be silly." George shook his finger as if he knew nothing.

"Only forbidden places are worth exploring, just like no one would go to the Transfiguration classroom at night."

"Potions classroom is a possibility."

"We went there when we were in first grade..."

"There were two big dung balls thrown there..."

“Unfortunately, the smell disappeared the next day.”

Kyle's eyes lit up, and he said thoughtfully, "It's a good idea to go to the Potions classroom at night."

"No, Kyle." Fred shook his head. "We've already verified that there's no point in that."

"The fourth floor is still the best." George said with a smile, "Principal Dumbledore is simply great. He gave us such a great surprise on the first day of school."

"Have you made up your mind? Do you want to go with us?" Fred asked again.

"But……"

Cedric was still a little hesitant, "It's dangerous there, aren't you afraid..."

"You don't know Dumbledore at all."

Fred said seriously, "If it was really dangerous, he would never let us know."

"this……"

Seeing Cedric hesitate, Fred and George looked at each other and continued:

"In fact, we had already been there before the first day of school."

Fred lowered his voice and said, "There's just a door. There's not even a portrait."

"I think it's a test for us." George said in a very seductive way, "As long as we pass the test, we can add 100 points to our school."

"It might be even better, to get an award for special contribution to the school!"

Cedric was somewhat moved. He felt that what the Weasley brothers said made sense.

Hagrid was guarding the Forbidden Forest and wouldn't let the young wizards in, but there was nothing on the equally dangerous fourth floor... There was definitely something wrong.

"Okay... I'll join!" Cedric thought for a moment and added, "But I'm just going to keep an eye on you to prevent you from getting into any big trouble."

"So that's how it is..." Fred said solemnly, "Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Diggory."

“Don’t look at me…” Kyle blinked, neither agreeing nor refusing, but directly asked: “When do you plan to go?”

"Any time is fine, but before that, there are two problems that need to be solved."

Fred said, "First of all, we tried it before, and the unlocking spell couldn't open the door... Kyle, I remember you have a master key, right?"

"Yeah." Kyle nodded.

The master key was sent along with the invisibility cloak, but he had never used it much.

"Then it should be fine."

George continued, "Then we only need to deal with Filch. He's been hanging around the fourth floor these past few nights. We have to find a way to lure him away."

"How about distracting him?"

Cedric suggested: "For example, before going to the fourth floor, throw a few dung eggs somewhere else."

"We thought so too...but no."

Fred shook his head and said, "This will only allow us to enter the room on the fourth floor, but we can't get out."

"If Filch had been guarding the door, and there was no other exit or secret passage in the room, we would have been trapped inside."

"Filch can't stay there all night," Cedric said with some disapproval.

"He really will," said Fred and George in unison.

In the past few nights, they have been using the Marauder's Map to observe Filch, but no matter when they look, he is always on the fourth floor.

"Then how about asking other people for help?" Cedric continued, "Appoint a time, one hour or two hours is fine, and use the dung balls to lure Filch away again."

"Are you sure... they will be able to wake up by then?" Fred said dimly.

Cedric was stunned. He really couldn't be sure.

And if you think about it carefully, even if that person can wake up and do as agreed, it will be useless if they don't manage the time well or are trapped by something and can't get out in time.

"Let's go check on Zuko."

At this moment, Kyle suddenly said, "There should be something there that can lure Filch away at any time."

"Haha, you and we are thinking alike."

After dinner, Fred and George went to Hogsmeade through the secret passage.

When they came back, they had a book in their hands that was familiar to everyone.

Dark Forces: A Guide to Self-Defense? Cedric was confused and asked, "Why did you buy it?"

"This is no ordinary book." Fred took them outside the castle, took out a quill, and said mysteriously, "Watch this."

With a snap, the quill was broken by him.

At the same time, the book began to shake violently, the pages inside flew everywhere, and there was a series of crackling explosions.

"Zoko's latest mischievous product."

Fred smiled and said, "It is specially designed for little wizards who don't want to go to class. It can be said that it coincides with our quick-acting skipping candy."

"With this, we can always cause trouble for Filch." George took out two identical books from his pocket.

"What about the controllable distance?" Kyle asked.

"Not very far, but far enough to lure Filch to another floor."
