Chapter 567 The Joy of Night Tour
"You must have thought of this a long time ago, so you didn't let us tell Dumbledore about it."
Fred said, patting Cedric next to him on the shoulder excitedly, "You are also a prefect, and you are much smarter than Percy... But you can definitely speak more clearly next time."
Is that what I thought?
Cedric felt that they seemed to have misunderstood something. He really thought that he should find more evidence before going to Principal Dumbledore.
After all, one of the opponents is a referee and the other is a principal. If you just go and accuse them of cheating, no one will believe it.
But seeing the excited expressions on their faces, he finally had no explanation.
And Cedric also felt that what they said made sense. He also got inside information about the third project. Kyle, who could be the first to enter the maze, would definitely have an advantage over Krum.
As a result, the three of them looked at each other and recounted the news they had just heard.
"The plants provided by Professor Sprout are devil's net, fang geranium and snake vine. They are all hidden in the hedges. You must be careful when you are in the maze."
"There are quite a few types of magical animals, but this shouldn't be a problem for you."
"The most dangerous animal is the Acromantula, and it is on the wrong route. When you see it, you must run. There is no need to waste time..."
The three of them talked to each other one by one. During the whole process, no one asked Kyle for his opinion.
Several times when Kyle wanted to say something, he was interrupted.
He originally wanted to say that even if Krum got this information, it would not be a threat to him. After all, these things could be found out by just asking any magical animal in the maze.
But the three of them didn't give him a chance to speak at all...
It was not until half past ten that Fred and George left the Hufflepuff common room.
The two of them were walking blatantly on the empty stairs without any cover.
"I think Bagman will definitely go to Karkaroff again..." Fred said as he walked: "I think we have to keep an eye on him to prevent him from revealing any new information to Karkaroff."
"Yes, I think so too." George nodded, "I just want to cheat if I can't compete... No wonder the adults don't have a good opinion of Durmstrang. I thought it was because they taught black magic. Woolen cloth."
"But now they don't want to succeed." Fred shook a piece of parchment in his hand, "We will keep an eye on Bagman, and he can no longer try to reveal the news to Karkaroff without telling everyone. ”
After that, the two quickened their pace and arrived at the eighth floor in a short time. As long as they walked along the corridor, they would reach the Gryffindor common room.
"But let me say that Karkaroff also did a good thing." George said suddenly: "After the cat was gone, the castle seemed to become quiet all of a sudden. This is simply great."
"And Filch." Fred also smiled.
"That's right."
George said, "Without them, the night tour is not very exciting and a bit boring."
The two of them continued walking forward, but just when they were about to reach the portrait of the Fat Lady, a dim yellow light suddenly appeared at the corner of the corridor.
Fortunately, the two reacted quickly enough, retreated quickly, and immediately used the Disguise Curse on themselves.
Soon, they saw Filch coming from another corridor in a sinister shape.
"Who's in there, I heard you, come out!" he said in a rough voice, scaring Fred and George to the point where they couldn't breathe.
This corridor is not very spacious. As long as Filch gets a little closer, he can find two people in front of the wall.
One step, two steps... Filch was getting closer.
At this time, a clanking sound suddenly came from downstairs, attracting his attention.
Filch quickly picked up the oil lamp and chased after him.
…
"That's how it happened, that oil lamp almost hit me in the nose."
The next morning, Fred described in vivid detail what had happened the night before.
"Who told you to save trouble and not use the Disillusionment Curse?"
Kyle took a piece of roasted corn and said, "Filch has not been fired, and routine inspections must be indispensable every day."
"Who would have thought." George shrugged, "Now everyone knows that Filch will only come out once during curfew. It was already very late when we came out, wasn't it?"
"Maybe he's picked himself up again," said Connor.
"If that's the case, it's not bad though."
Fred poked at the stew on his plate, "We kinda missed Filch."
"Without such a rival, we won't even be interested in night outings."
The fun of a night out is a battle of wits and courage with Filch? This is probably something only Fred and George can say.
"Oh, wait, Bagman is here..." George accidentally glanced at the Marauder's Map and said suddenly.
Then the two of them quickly finished the food on their plates, got up and rushed out of the auditorium.
Cedric originally wanted to follow him, but he came back just as he ran to the door of the auditorium.
"They used the Disillusionment Curse." Cedric spread his hands and said, "I can't find the person."
…
In the following period, similar things happened many times.
Bagman seemed to have become a trap for the Weasley brothers. As long as it was not class time, Fred and George would run over immediately when he appeared, sometimes with Cedric.
The day when the third project started was also the end of the Hogwarts exam. They should have taken the time to review, but now they spent a lot of energy staring at Bagman and Karkaroff.
Although Kyle had said many times that there was no need to do this, they didn't listen at all.
"You don't have to worry about this, Kyle."
After returning from the Quidditch field again, Cedric said: "The sixth grade courses are very easy. Our homework is even less than that in the third grade. There is enough time."
"Yeah." Fred nodded beside him, "And there is no need to worry about exams. As long as we have some grades, it is enough. Even if the sixth grade final exam is a little worse, Mom won't say anything."
"Are you sure?" Kyle raised his eyebrows.
"Well... I think, it should be." Fred looked a little hesitant, but finally waved his hand.
"Don't worry about this, just focus on preparing for the third project."
"We are doing our part for Hogwarts." George took out an ear-shaped object and said, "If we can find evidence of Bagman and Karkaroff cheating... Mom will definitely understand."
"What if we can't catch them? Will you go back with a bad transcript?"
The two of them were suddenly silent.
"If that's the case..." After a moment, Fred said quietly, "Kyle, how about letting us stay in your attic for two months?"
