Chapter 298 The Sneaky Trio

After returning to the castle, Kyle and the others walked through the crowded corridors and prepared to go to the next Transfiguration class.

In the past two days, almost all classes have had people asking about the Chamber of Secrets.

But other professors are not as easy to talk to as Professor Sprout.

In the Transfiguration class, a Gryffindor raised her hand during Professor McGonagall's lecture, but she was ruthlessly interrupted as soon as she said the word "Chamber of Secrets".

"Ten points deducted from Gryffindor."

Professor McGonagall pursed her lips and said, "Miss Bell, I hope you can pay more attention to your grades, not those illusory legends.

If I remember correctly, you haven't turned the buttons into beetles yet... Don't forget that this is the content of our first class, and Halloween is over now.

If you continue like this, you may not even get a P (pass) in the exam."

Katie Bell from Gryffindor was blushing and sat back with her head down.

With her previous experience, others will naturally not make things difficult for themselves.

Of course, this is just a Gryffindor student... Hufflepuff is different.

They just learned the truth from Professor Sprout, so there was no need to ask Professor McGonagall.

Looking at the students who were still in the dark, the badgers suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of superiority.

Gryffindor students are just like this...

When the get out of class was over, Kyle was going to go directly to the auditorium and go to the first floor to have lunch... But as soon as he got to the first floor, he heard a rapid "crackling" sound from above his head.

He was too familiar with these sounds, which were the explosions of the props in Myrtle's bathroom after they were triggered.

Without any hesitation, Kyle turned around and ran upstairs, and took out the wand and box as quickly as possible.

"Is it the person with the diary, or... the basilisk!" Kyle was nervous.

It's okay if it's a person, but if it's a basilisk... I don't know if it will listen to me.

If it doesn't listen... can Norbert, the Norwegian back dragon, deal with it?

In this complicated mood, Kyle ran all the way to the corridor where Myrtle's bathroom is located.

But when he got here, he was suddenly stunned. Because the people who appeared at the door of the bathroom were all familiar people.

"Harry, Hermione, Ron?" Kyle asked subconsciously: "Why are you here?"

The three seemed to be frightened by a series of explosions, and they suddenly reacted after hearing Kyle's voice.

Harry turned around and stammered: "We... just passed by... yes, passed by!"

While he was talking, Kyle also noticed that Hermione was holding a big thick book that seemed to be moldy.

After noticing Kyle's gaze, she immediately hid the book behind her back... The four words "guilty as a thief" were almost written on her face.

Although she moved quickly, Kyle still saw the word "potion". If he guessed correctly, it should be "Powerful Potions".

A high-end potion book, he also had an identical handwritten version in his box.

Kyle didn't care. He looked at the dark faces of the three people and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that it's not a basilisk.

"Whether you are just passing by or for some other reason, I think you should run quickly." Kyle said, "We just finished the Transfiguration class, Professor McGonagall should not have gone far."

"Professor McGonagall?!"

The three of them were like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and they almost jumped up in fright.

"If she finds out that we blew up the bathroom..."

"Ron, we didn't blow up the bathroom!" Hermione corrected, "We just opened the door and didn't even go in."

"I know, but Professor McGonagall doesn't know!"

"Stop talking, run quickly!"

Perhaps because of the lesson learned last Halloween, the three of them didn't hesitate and ran away.

When they passed by Kyle, they didn't forget to thank him.

"Thank you for your reminder, Kyle."

】

"We'll leave first!"

The three of them reached the stairs as quickly as possible and started running towards the Gryffindor Tower.

Just as they turned the corner, on the other side of the corridor, a tabby cat jumped lightly onto the handrail next to it. Its amber eyes looked around and soon found Kyle and the messy bathroom.

Then the tabby cat jumped off the handrail and turned into Professor McGonagall in mid-air.

"So it's here..."

She hurried to the bathroom, "Oh my God, what happened here, is someone practicing the blasting spell?"

Kyle also came over.

It must be said that Professor McGonagall's description was a bit exaggerated.

In the bathroom, except for the walls, ceiling, and the corridor at the door that were smoked black, there was no damage.

After all, the "exploding textbook" was Zuko's joke prop. Except for the loud noise, the lethality can be said to be almost zero.

Otherwise, Kyle would not dare to place them in the school.

Professor McGonagall soon noticed this, but she was still very angry.

"Professor McGonagall, I came here because I heard the noise." Kyle said first.

Professor McGonagall glanced at him and nodded.

"When you came, was there anyone else here?"

"There were three." Kyle pointed to the direction of the stairs and said, "They just ran away from the stairs when I came."

"Who is it!" Professor McGonagall asked with pursed lips.

Kyle pointed at the dark wall, "Their faces were the same as this wall, and they couldn't see their faces at all."

Professor McGonagall looked at the wall of the bathroom, and then at the three clear human figures on the blackened corridor at the entrance. She seemed to have thought of something, and a faint smile appeared on her originally serious face.

"Zonko's stuff again..."

She didn't mean to chase Harry and the others anymore, but just took out her wand, restored the bathroom to its original state, and then drove away the people around.

The movement just now attracted many students who were watching the excitement. They thought that someone else was attacked like Filch.

During this process, Myrtle was so quiet that she seemed to be non-existent. It was not until Professor McGonagall left that she carefully poked out her transparent head.

"Three annoying people were driven away... I didn't expect the things you put there were actually useful."

"What else do you think that is." Kyle, who turned back halfway, looked at Myrtle and whispered.

"The old books you don't want..." Myrtle said, "Will you put new ones in?"

"Of course."

The last time he went to Hogsmeade, Kyle bought a lot of things at Zonko, including the "Exploding Textbook".

Although there were only two books, judging from the noise just now, these were enough.

...

When Kyle returned to the hall, lunch had already begun. Professor McGonagall was sitting in the guest of honor seat, talking to Professor Flitwick.

Harry and the other two came later, and walked in with their heads down halfway through lunch.

They all changed their clothes and tidied their fluffy and messy hair as they walked.

In the guest of honor seat, Professor McGonagall looked at them thoughtfully.

...

"Tomorrow is the Quidditch game."

Beside him, Harris was talking to Cedric, "Gryffindor and Slytherin, we can just see the power of those brooms and their new seekers."

Harris was referring to Draco Malfoy, who was the only newcomer.

Cedric nodded, "I'll keep an eye on it."

"I hope he joined the team because of those brooms, not a genius like Potter." Harris said hopefully.

Seven brand new Nimbus 2001s are fine, but if you add an excellent Seeker... the other three teams will have no chance at all.
