Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard

Chapter 69: what would you do

Chapter 69 What will you do?

"Mr. Chopper, why don't you follow the instructions in the book and grind the lionfish spines into powder before adding them to the crucible."

In the potions class, Snape stared at Kyle and said in a strange tone: "Do you think you are some kind of potions genius, and you actually dare to tamper with the textbook?"

 “Five points from Hufflepuff for your arrogance.”

Kyle looked up at the blackboard.

It clearly says: Do not grind the lionfish spines, boil them in boiling water for five minutes and cut them into sections.

 Such large fonts, and it was written by Snape himself, how could it mean that he had tampered with the textbook.

"Professor..." Kyle took a deep breath and said in as normal a voice as possible: "That's what you wrote on the blackboard."

 “Oh, that’s what I wrote wrong.”

Snape calmly waved his wand and erased the sentence on the blackboard.

“Does what I write must be right? What about your ability to judge? If I say you want to add your own tendencies, will you also do it?

 Because you have no idea, Hufflepuff will deduct another three points. "

 …

Until the end of get out of class, Kyle's hand was tightly holding the rock cake in his pocket, hesitating whether to throw it on the back of Snape's head.

 Although Snape had been deducting points for no reason from very early on, today he was particularly excessive. He would do anything to deduct points, even without shame.

 Can you still erase what you have written?

This kind of waist-breaking operation can be regarded as an eye-opener for Kyle.

Of course, the effect was immediate. In just one class, Kyle was deducted more than thirty points.

 From the time he entered school until now, his other courses combined have not had as many points deducted as today's class.

Other little badgers came over to comfort him, and even Kangna thoughtfully handed him a licorice candy.

Kyle took a look and chose to ignore it.

During the meal, Fred and George also heard about what happened in the Potions class. They ran over and patted Kyle on the shoulder, comforting: "It's okay. Snape has been deducting points from us too. It's okay." of."

 “Yeah, pfft…I mean, you gotta look at it a little bit.”

 The two of them spoke words of comfort, but with undisguised smiles on their faces.

 Obviously, they were just here to see a joke.

Just when Kyle was about to drive the two of them away, Fred leaned his head over and said in a low voice: "Okay, stop thinking about those unhappy things. I'll show you something good."

 He looked around and carefully took out a square piece of parchment from his pocket.

"Remember what I wanted to tell you a few days ago? This is it." George also came over and whispered: "A magical magic item, I dare say you will never guess what it is."

"Could it be..." Kyle raised his eyebrows and said with a puzzled expression: "Is this parchment that can automatically write homework?"

   …”

  The expressions of the twins, who were still very proud before, suddenly became a little stiff.

"If it's possible..." Fred said wistfully, "I really hope it is."

"But its real function is great." George said: "This is a map of Hogwarts, of course, not the ordinary stuff you sell."

“We call it the Marauder’s Map.”

Fred said as he took out his wand and tapped it lightly on the parchment.

 “I solemnly swear…”

In an instant, thin ink lines spread like a spider web from where the wand tip touched, connecting with each other and extending to every corner of the parchment.

 Then large green floral characters appeared on the top.

“Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs.

From the gentlemen who specialize in helping magical mischief makers - the Marauder's Map. "

Kyle took the parchment from Fred and looked at the famous Marauder's Map carefully.

This map depicts all the details of Hogwarts Castle in detail, and it is much more detailed than an ordinary map. It can almost be said to be a miniature of Hogwarts.

 Everything in the castle, whether it's a painting, a carpet, or even a vase, can be found on the map.

 The most unusual thing is that there are many small black dots moving on the map, each with a name in tiny fonts.

Kyle saw Dumbledore in the principal's office, and also saw Filch and Peeves moving quickly from the corridor on the fifth floor to the sixth floor.

 These are all clearly shown.

 But if it is a place with a lot of people...such as the current auditorium, it will not work.

 A large number of names overlapped and it was so dark that nothing could be seen clearly.

In addition, Kyle also noticed that this map did not seem to show the locations of all the secret passages.

 Because the location of the Whomping Willow on the map is empty, there is nothing.

Kyle handed the map back to Fred and asked, "How did you get it?"

“We were in first grade at that time, young, carefree, and innocent...” Fred and George squinted their eyes and fell into memories.

"For some trivial matter, Filch pulled us into his office and threatened to kill us..."

 “Confined.”

 “Eviscerate.”

“And we couldn’t help but take aim at one of his filing cabinet drawers, which was marked, Confiscated Items, Highly Dangerous.”

Fred suddenly smiled and said: "Kyle, what would you do if I were in my shoes?"

Kyle thought for a while and said: "I will lure Peeves there, provide him with enough dung eggs or pepper balls, and then empty the drawer during the chaos."

   …”

Fred and George opened their mouths and were speechless for a long time. After a while, Fred shook his head and said: "Kyle, you deserve to be deducted thirty points by Snape. Really, you don't injustice."

“Don’t open the pot and lift it.” Kyle glanced at him angrily and said, “So you got this map from that drawer.”

"Yes." George smacked his lips and said, "We don't have as much courage as you, so we only took this."

“But how do you know how to use it?” Kyle looked at the parchment, “It’s not written on it.”

“Speaking of this... we must mention Moon Face, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs.” Fred sighed: “These four are simply geniuses of pranks.”

“They took the password apart and hid it in every corner of the castle.” George said: “As long as all the clues are found, the complete password can be obtained.”

"It's a pity that we have been looking for it for a year..." Fred said regretfully: "But we still haven't found the complete password."

“So we can only use the map five times a day, and each time is only half an hour.” George said with a smile: “This is a great undertaking, and we are going to take three years to complete it.”

 “What if we still can’t find it in three years?” Kyle asked.

"That means we don't deserve it." George shrugged, "We will find a new owner for it then."

"Really." Kyle said, "So you showed it to me so that I could join you in searching for clues?"

"No, no, no, Kyle." Fred shook his head and said, "The password is a test given to us by the four seniors. We have to complete it ourselves."

 “Then this time you...”

 “Let’s go on a night out!” Fred and George said in unison.

 …
