This may also be related to the twins' recent experiences.
As expected, the pile of Moon-crazy Beast feces that they had brought back with great effort ended up in their hands.
No one wants it among the little wizards.
The shops in Diagon Alley don't accept it.
But the twins were unwilling to let it go, and in the end, for some unknown reason, they ran to the greenhouse and tried to sell the goods to Professor Sprout at a low price.
As expected, their night tour was discovered, and the consequences were very serious.
Professor Sprout only took one look and knew where the things in their hands came from.
With such a large number, they could only have come from the Forbidden Forest.
Professor Sprout was naturally very clear about the time to collect the Moon Maniac's feces.
It would be fine if he went for a night stroll in the forbidden forest, but he actually had the guts to show off in front of the professor?
Even a gentle Professor Sprout could not stand this blatant provocation and took them directly to Professor McGonagall's office.
Although the twins tried to explain that they found it near Hagrid's pumpkin patch, no one believed them.
Because Hagrid had been busy with other things at that time and hadn't taken care of the pumpkin patch for a long time.
Professor McGonagall was disappointed and angry, so she made them clean the bathroom for a week.
Filch even wanted to move his office next to Gryffindor Tower so that he could keep an eye on them all the time.
But this makes things convenient for Kyle.
After Mikel and Ryan fell asleep, Kyle quietly got up from the bed and tiptoed out of the common room.
After putting on the silver-green scarf as usual, Kyle took out his wand and tapped it lightly on his forehead.
"Phantom."
A cold feeling quickly spread from the top of the head, as if a basin of ice water was poured on it.
Then, Kyle's body began to show patterns of the same color as the wall behind him.
Illusion spell.
Kyle had been studying this spell since returning from the Forbidden Forest.
Although the invisibility cloak is convenient and easy to use, it also has many disadvantages. If you are not careful or walk too fast, your feet may be exposed.
In comparison, the Disillusionment Charm is more useful.
It's just that this spell is a bit troublesome. It took him three days to get the hang of it, and the color of his body isn't smooth enough when it changes with the environment.
Fortunately, Hogwarts Castle is pitch black at night, so this minor flaw has no impact.
After everything was ready, Kyle walked to the door of the library on the second floor with ease.
This is his latest night hangout spot.
He likes reading, but some books are not suitable for reading during the day. They are only interesting when he reads them secretly alone at dark.
The library door was closed, with a large brass lock hanging between the two doors.
Kyle took out the master key and turned the brass lock lightly. Then he carefully pushed open a crack and squeezed into the library sideways.
The library was dark and eerie at night.
"Lumos."
Kyle walked through the rows of bookshelves with his wand in hand until he reached the back half of the library, where he stopped in front of a sign.
On the sign, the three words "Restricted Books Area" look very tempting.
Kyle stepped carefully over the rope that separated the books from the rest of the collection and, using the light from his wand, read the titles.
In order to prevent being discovered or any accidents, Kyle was very particular when choosing books.
Don’t accept anything without a cover.
Don’t buy thick and big ones.
Don’t buy any with strange marks.
Don’t buy anything that looks too old... Mainly because I’m afraid it might be damaged when flipping through the pages, and it would be troublesome if I can’t restore it.
Kyle walked through the restricted books area for a long time, and only when he reached the sixth row of bookshelves did he pull out a black book with gold-stamped cursive letters.
The book was very thin, and the cursive writing on the cover had peeled off a lot, so Kyle could only barely make out the meaning of the last two words.
"Investigation..."
That's it.
After choosing the book, Kyle sat down on the floor just like he did the last few times he came, opened the book and started reading slowly.
Compared with ordinary books, the contents of the restricted area are generally much more obscure. When Kyle encounters something he cannot read or understand, he will copy it down with the shorthand quill pen he carries with him.
Read more of the latest popular novels at 6.9*shuba!
Although this method is much more troublesome than using the copy spell directly, it is safer.
Who knows if there are any strange prohibitions in these books? To be on the safe side, it is better not to cast spells on them.
…
By the time Kyle left the library, it was two hours later.
On the way back, Kyle unexpectedly met Peeves, but because of the protection of the Disillusionment Charm, the other party did not discover him.
The next morning, Kyle, who had originally planned to sleep until 8:50, was pulled out of bed by his two roommates at 7:30.
"Wake up, Kyle, wake up!"
Without caring about Kyle's reaction, the two men pulled him out of the bed without saying a word, and then each of them dragged him by one of his arms and brought him to the window.
"Look, it's snowing!"
Mikel opened the window, and without any warning, a cold wind mixed with snowflakes hit Kyle directly in the face.
"hiss……"
Kyle shuddered and instantly lost all sleepiness.
Kyle rubbed his face, feeling that this scene looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
"Let's go out and take a look!" Mikel said excitedly, "This is the first snow in Hogwarts."
Kyle shook his head in denial.
What's so good about snow? He might as well take a nap instead. He slept very late yesterday and today is not the weekend. What if he feels sleepy during class?
But Mikel and Ryan don't think so.
They kept urging Kyle to wash up and change his clothes, as if to say they would not leave unless he went.
"This is the first snow we've experienced since arriving at Hogwarts. It's very meaningful!"
Mikkel said, "It's a waste of time to sleep now. We'll have plenty of time to catch up on some sleep in the History of Magic class later."
"Yes, the first class today is History of Magic."
Thinking of this, Kyle no longer insisted. He changed his clothes and walked out of the dormitory with them.
In just one night, the snow on the ground was more than a foot thick.
When they arrived at the open space outside Hogwarts Castle, there were already quite a few people there.
Kyle also saw Fred and George, who were making snow lions in the open space with a few Gryffindors... Well, in theory, they should be making lions, but they looked a bit ugly, and looked a lot like a philoprogenitor caterpillar doing yoga.
